Mason and Kendra are ready to spend the rest of their lives together. In an early pre-wedding celebration, they go to Thundering Sands Amusement Park and ride the park’s main attraction, The Lightning Tunnel. The roller coaster does more than just provide an exciting ride, though. Once in the Lightning Tunnel, something goes drastically wrong and Mason is transported back in time 55 years. Stranded in a decade he knows little about, Mason is determined that somehow he must get back to Kendra. Will he ever be able to find his way back to his old life and if he does, what will he find once he gets back? This story is also available in the short story collection, No Time to Panic! A Book of Short Stories.
Asaro returns to the interstellar Skolian Empire in Catch the Lightning to tell a tale of politics, love, and war, the story of a young girl from Earth taken into the future and made the focus of a murderous plot to bring down the empire.
Tunnels and Underground Cities: Engineering and Innovation meet Archaeology, Architecture and Art contains the contributions presented at the World Tunnel Congress 2019 (Naples, Italy, 3-9 May 2019). The use of underground space is continuing to grow, due to global urbanization, public demand for efficient transportation, and energy saving, production and distribution. The growing need for space at ground level, along with its continuous value increase and the challenges of energy saving and achieving sustainable development objectives, demand greater and better use of the underground space to ensure that it supports sustainable, resilient and more liveable cities. This vision was the source of inspiration for the design of the logos of both the International (ITA) and Italian (SIG) Tunnelling Association. By placing key infrastructures underground – the black circle in the logos – it will be possible to preserve and enhance the quality of the space at ground level – the green line. In order to consider and value underground space usage together with human and social needs, engineers, architects, and artists will have to learn to collaborate and develop an interdisciplinary design approach that addresses functionality, safety, aesthetics and quality of life, and adaptability to future and varied functions. The 700 contributions cover a wide range of topics, from more traditional subjects connected to technical challenges of design and construction of underground works, with emphasis on innovation in tunneling engineering, to less conventional and archetypically Italian themes such as archaeology, architecture, and art. The book has the following main themes: Archaeology, Architecture and Art in underground construction; Environment sustainability in underground construction; Geological and geotechnical knowledge and requirements for project implementation; Ground improvement in underground constructions; Innovation in underground engineering, materials and equipment; Long and deep tunnels; Public communication and awareness; Risk management, contracts and financial aspects; Safety in underground construction; Strategic use of underground space for resilient cities; Urban tunnels. Tunnels and Underground Cities: Engineering and Innovation meet Archaeology, Architecture and Art is a valuable reference text for tunneling specialists, owners, engineers, architects and others involved in underground planning, design and building around the world, and for academics who are interested in underground constructions and geotechnics.

This volume book covered significant recent developments in the Software Engineering, Knowledge Engineering and Information Engineering field, both theoretical and applied. We are glad this conference attracts your attentions, and thank your support to our conference. We will absorb remarkable suggestion, and make our conference more successful and perfect.
For the first thirteen years of his young life, Kyle never knew much about his dad. Only seeing him twice a year did nothing to help matters either, but Kyle does his best to get through his life without him. Besides, he's got bigger things to worry about, like starting eighth grade and dealing with his girlfriend. Life is weird enough, or so he thinks. One night, he and his girlfriend find themselves trapped in an alley. A dark figure approaches and attacks. Kyle is astonished to see that their attacker is a demon-who also happens to be his principal! Out of nowhere, a blast of pure light destroys the demon but it is the identity of their rescuer that really blows Kyle's mind. It's his dad-who seems to be some sort of supernatural bounty hunter. Guess life can get weirder. Kyle begins training to become a warrior of light in the battle against the Shadow Bearers. Can he save his friend's girlfriend from her shadowy fate in time?
