Pilot Vincent Ten Ponies has no problems when he is flying. But when he lands, his shady and eccentric employer Clive MacLeod gives him all he can handle. Forced to work with a college dropout couple recruited into Clive's Caribbean "import/export venture," it falls to Vince to keep the naive giant Jim alive, his ambitious, dysfunctional girlfriend Macy in check, and all of them out of prison. In just a few more months he can buy his own plane and be free to work for himself-if his boss and new co-workers don't get him killed first. Nadir's Fire is a fast-moving action-adventure reminiscent of Jack London's The Sea Wolf. The style is much like B. Traven's The Treasure of Sierra Madre. Author Daniel Bell writes in a ruthlessly convincing way about drug and gun running. His insight into human nature makes his characters come frighteningly to life and the story line has an artful pacing that turns the book into a breathless page turner. Bell's first novel reads like a true story. The whispered tone of societal and moral decay provides a perfect literary perspective on our not-so-perfect times. It may be a genre novel, but it is also a fine literary work for anyone except perhaps the faintest of hearts. -William Allen, Pulitzer nominee and author of Starkweather: Inside the Mindof a Teenage Killer Daniel Bell's prose is as tense as flexed muscle, the characters are drawn in quick fine-pointed strokes, and the action hums with menace. Nadir's Fire is a fast ride down the slippery back alleys of paradise, and an impressive debut by a sure-handed writer. -Randall Silvis, Author of the acclaimed fabulist novel In a Town Called Mundomuerto Drue Heinz Literature Prize winner and author/screenwriter of the novel/movie An Occasional Hell. Daniel Bell is a sometime author and full time ne'er-do-well hiding on a cattle farm in northeast Ohio. He has never finished a college degree, never been married, never held a job for more than a year and almost never been in jail. He has been a factory worker, farm hand, painter, field biologist, carpenter, bartender, bad credit risk, "unlicensed pharmaceutical distributor," deck hand, waiter, drunk, scuba instructor, karate teacher, soldier, bouncer, cook, redneck handgun target, caffeine addict, weightlifting coach, satyr, cuckold and serial exaggerator. He fears success, failure, commitment, abandonment and small, yappy dogs. He is not a pilot, yacht captain or currently under indictment. Dan is half-heartedly at work on his second novel between hay baling, fence repair, dark periods of self-doubt and reflection upon a misspent life.

Nadir shahs name went down in history also as a great reformer of religion. It is knotwo parts; in the West the Turks of Azerbaijan were far from the Turks of the Ottomans who believed in the faith of Sunnite Henefi of Islam, in the east from the Turks of the Middle Asia. Afterwards, Shah Ismayils religious reforms gave a chance to the Persian nationalists to seize the power. wn from the history that the Safavids had come to the power by preferring the ideology of Shiite. As soon as Shah Ismayil came to the power, came to the throne in Tabriz, he carried out a religious reform, and obliged the population of the provinces of Azerbaijan and Persian to adopt Shiite. Though he the big ruinous wars lasted for ten years; The cunning power centers of that time could use properly the chance of the difference of faith between the brotherly countries. He abolished Alevilik which was adopted by the dynasty of Safavids as an official religious faith, and made the faith of Jafari official. During his time Azerbaijan restored itshad established a big state, the religious reform carried out by him, divided the Turkish world into The discrimination of faith made the Turks of both Azerbaijan and Turkey, be face to face, and caused to former might again, and in the world it became the second mighty state after the state of Ottomans. But it didnt last much. In 1747, Nadir shah was assassinated by the captain of unfortunate Motherland and the historical facts. This history has been living in the heart of any Azerbaijani and throws light on its future. Up to Yunus Oghuzs this novel, there were written different works about Nadir shah. But except Yunus Oghuzs novel, in none of those works Nadir shah didnt unite the historical lands of the country, or didnt reinstate the old Turkish traditions, and at last as a connective, and reformer. Up this time, especially, during the Soviet period, the real heroes of Azerbaijan were forgotten, they were disgraced underhis guard at the age of sixty-one. It was the beginning of the fall of the empire of Azerbaijan which could be able to last till 1925. The novel of Nadir shah by Yunus Oguz reflects wholly one part of the glorious history of our different brands, the personalities who put the foundation of the division by the policy pursued by them, were shown to the people as heroes. The name of Nadir shah Avshar was given in all the Oghuz, Nadir shah isnt valued as an inexperienced ruler who didnt know what the diplomacy was, like in the works written in the former times. On the contrary, in the novel it is clearly seen that Nadir shah understood the tricky policy of the neighboring states for to make Azerbaijan and Turkey become face to face, and he didnt agree with them. In the work it has been given a broad place to Nadir shahs religious reforms. It is true, Nadir shah wasnt able to carry out till the end all those reforms, his policy of to put an end to the discrimination of faith, to unite all the Turkish world. Yunus Oghuz shows that Nadir shah wanted to put an end the difference of Shiite-Sunnite in the wholly Islam. But the conservative scientists, confessors, and the political circles that set up their power basing on the difference of faith, put up resistance to his plans. In the work, the death of the great Azerbaijani ruler has been written in an interesting form. The investigations of the last period show that the Russian intelligeliterature as a blood-sucker Iranian shah and the cruel ruler.

The fifth book in Lisanne Norman's Sholan Alliance long-running science fiction series of alien contact and interspecies conflict The world of Jalna had revealed many secrets to the Sholan-Human teams sent there on a rescue mission. They had discovered one of the methods Valtegans used to control other races, had learned how deceitful one of their own allies had been, and were about to begin negotiations for an alliance with several newly met races. Yet the planetary conflicts had led to the injured Carrie and Kusac being placed in cryo on a non-Sholan vessel, with Kaid desperately trying to rush them back to Sholan medical facilities. But before they could reach their rendezvous point, the ship they were on was caught in a Valtegan trap, leaving Kaid barely enough time to send Carrie's and Kusac's life-pods into space, in the hope that they'd be found by friendly forces. Kaid was certain he and his people were doomed, until a massive vessel suddenly materialized, scooping up both Kaid's ship and the Valtegan foe. Now all of them were prisoners of a completely unknown people. And only time would tell whether they'd fallen into the clutches of an even more deadly enemy than the Valtegans....
