Gene Wolfe's In Green's Jungles is the second volume, after On Blue's Waters, of his ambitious SF trilogy, The Book of the Short Sun. It is again narrated by Horn, who has embarked on a quest from his home on the planet Blue in search of the heroic leader Patera Silk. Now Horn's identity has become ambiguous, a complex question embedded in the story, whose telling is itself complex, shifting from place to place, present to past. Horn recalls visiting the Whorl, the enormous spacecraft in orbit that brought the settlers from Urth, and going thence to the planet Green, home of the blood-drinking alien inhumi. There, he led a band of mercenary soldiers, answered to the name of Rajan, and later became the ruler of a city state. He has also encountered the mysterious aliens, the Neighbors, who once inhabited both Blue and Green. He remembers a visit to Nessus, on Urth. At some point, he died. His personality now seemingly inhabits a different body, so that even his sons do not recognize him. And people mistake him for Silk, to whom he now bears a remarkable resemblance. In Green's Jungles is Wolfe's major new fiction, The Book of the Short Sun, building toward a strange and seductive climax. "Wolfe's narrative glows, rich and seductive as ever."--Kirkus Reviews At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Into the Green is Cherokee Paul McDonald's stark and stirring account of his three years as an Artillery Forward Observer in Vietnam. Born out of memories and emotions, and the weight of conscience, it is an eloquent meditation on what it means to be a soldier.McDonald tells his story "in the voice of memory; as a writer looking back." He wanted to capture the immediacy of war moment by moment-the tastes, the textures, the colors, smells, and emotions that have stayed with him forever. In a series of interlocking episodes he describes the daily grind of military life and the terror and brutality of active combat. He talks about the men who were his comrades and friends, and nights spent in the impenetrable darkness of steaming jungles beneath a triple canopy of green in the central highlands of Vietnam.An indelible portrait of a soldier and of the physical and emotional destruction that is the legacy of all wars, Into the Green is a haunting chronicle of a place and a time that will never fade from memory.
Think of a senior leader from one of the most reputed corporate houses who had the privilege of leading 5,000 employees for many years while leading a site and has almost 40 years of working experience with leaders, managers and young employees. Now, the same leader has superannuated, but he is equally engaged with people, playing golf on weekends and travelling to various places to meet people and celebrate life. During some of the reflections on golf courses in the most beautiful cities in India and abroad, he is thinking of his life and career lessons which he now decides to share with the world. While being on golf courses on every weekend in morning hours, he is looking back and connecting the dots. As Steve Jobs said - we can connect the dots only when we look backwards. In his journey starting from a little village in Bihar to the golf courses in some of the largest cities in India and abroad, he finds many stories, lessons and connections which will, for sure, benefit youngsters and in fact people from any age group. There are lessons of discipline, persistence, consistency, clarity, focus, courage, fearlessness, risk taking, care for people and a winning mindset to convert challenges into opportunities which come out as he narrates his story which has a deep and everlasting fragrance of nostalgia. While people from Generation X and Y can connect with the stories, people from Generation Z, etc. will also find these equally compelling and interesting. Mr Ojha was born in a village without even a basic school and had every reason to crib and complain. Today, he considers himself blessed and privileged to fund the construction of a modern high school in the same village. The journey in between - which moves through various parts of India and the world and also through some of the biggest corporate houses, is encapsulated in this inspiring and thrilling book. This book has an encaptivating story of his travel from a small village to Jamshedpur and from there to West Bokaro before travelling across many other countries while working with some of the best brains in the world and learning a lot of lessons on the way. Mr Ojha wants to share these with the youth - and people from other generations alike - hoping that some of these will make sense to them and will help them run their own race of life successfully. Let the world be a better place to live, love, laugh and work, and this is the goal with which 'Canvas of the Green' has come to shape.
