Nel mio mondo non e permesso avere debolezze.Niente aveva mai potuto scalfire la mia corazza e la mia oscurita, ma poi era arrivata lei.Tessa Rivera, la figlia del nemico della mia famiglia.Dovevo annientarla e rispedirla al padre. Invece ho finito per innamorarmi.Un amore pazzo, intenso e capace di farmi dimenticare chi ero e cosa rappresentavo.Con la sua purezza aveva illuminato la mia anima nera e io lavevo accolta e protetta, fino ad arrivare a darle tutto me stesso.Non lavevo mai fatto con nessuno, ma pensavo che lei fosse diversa e mi sono lasciato andare.Mai avrei pensato di commettere un imperdonabile errore e il proiettile che mi ha oltrepassato il petto a pochi centimetri dal cuore ne e la prova.Tessa mi ha sparato e poi e fuggita.Ho lottato contro la morte e ho vinto.Ora vado a riprendermi mia moglie e le faro pagare ogni inganno e ogni minuto passato al mio fianco.

First published in 1912, "The Unbearable Bassington" was the first novel written by Saki (H. H. Munro). The book contains much of the elegant wit found in his short stories and showcases Sakis wonderful writing and that ability to be so very funny and terribly sad at the same time. The story is about the relationship between mother and son. Comus (The Unbearable) Bassington, is a charming young man about town. His perversity however thwarts all his mothers efforts to advance his prospects and lands him in hot water. Like many a black sheep he ends up being sent off to one of the colonies to fend for himself...

Amongst the great popular novelists of the nineteenth century who are still read today, Anthony Trollope stands alongside his contemporary, Charles Dickens. "The Warden" was first published in 1855 and it was Trollopes fourth novel, but the first in the clerical series which became known as The Barsetshire Chronicles (AKA Barchester series), and it established his reputation as a popular novelist in the Victorian period, becoming Trollopes first really successful novel. The others in the sequence are "Barchester Towers", "Doctor Thorne", "Framley Parsonage", "The Small House at Allington", and "The Last Chronicle of Barset".The opening of the novel makes it clear that Barchester was supposed to be a cathedral town in the south west of England, and it is probably constructed imaginatively from elements of Salisbury and Wells cathedrals, which Trollope knew well from his travels around the south west in his professional capacity as inspector of the postal system.In the mid nineteenth century there were a number of financial scandals in the Church of England. Trollope based The Warden on the St Cross scandal, but in the novel the Warden is a kindly, devoted, priest, beloved by all that knew him and is racked by fear that he is accepting money to which he is not entitled. His antagonist is his prospective son-in-law John Bold and his (somewhat unwelcome) ally is one of Trollopes strongest characters, the Archdeacon of Barchester, Dr. Theophilus Grantly.Novels in the Barchester series:1-The Warden2-Barchester Towers3-Doctor Thorne4-Framley Parsonage5-The Small House at Allington6-The Last Chronicle of Barset

First published in 1874, "The Mysterious Island" is an adventure novel by Jules Verne and included in his popular science-fiction series Voyages extraordinaires (18631910) as a sequel to his "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" (1870). "The Mysterious Island" follows the adventures of a group of castaways who use their survivalist savvy to build a functional community on an uncharted island.Contemporary readers would have found the greatest similarities between Vernes "Mysterious Island" and DeFoes "Robinson Crusoe" (1719), the quintessential castaway story. But today, "The Mysterious Island" will resonate with anyone familiar with the television show Lost.A hot-air balloon carrying five passengers and a dog escapes from Richmond, Virginia, during the American Civil War. It is blown off course and deposited near an obscure island. One of the castaways nearly dies after a skirmish with pirates; he is saved by the unexplained appearance of someone after the pirates are unexpectedly routed. The secret helper proves to be none other than the reclusive Captain Nemo (first introduced "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea")...

"Michael Strogoff" (AKA "Courier of the Czar"), written in 1876, is the 14th novel in Jules Vernes Extraordinary Voyages cycle, his largest and most influential body of published work. It was written specially for Czar Alexander II of Russias visit to Paris in 1876, and tells the story of a young couriers perilous journey across Russia to Eastern Siberia in order to warn the Czars brother of an impending Tartar invasion. Like all of Vernes work, this captivating adventure novel was meticulously researched, as is evident in the close attention to detail in the descriptions of Russian and Siberian geography.In this tale of intrigue set in Russia, a traitor has inspired the fierce Feofar Khan to invade Siberia and foment a rebellion. A sinister plot to assassinate the Czars brother, the Grand Duke, is discovered but all telegraph lines have been cut. Only one of the Czars couriers is qualified to handle the dangerous and arduous mission to warn the Siberian Governor General of the impending invasion, Michael Strogoff.

"The Iron Heel", american classic written by Jack London in 1908, is considered one of the earliest novels of modern Dystopian Fiction, which would lead to works later known as Soft Science Fiction. Jack London, a socialist himself, portrays America under tyrannical rule, the terrible oppression of an American oligarchy at the beginning of the Twentieth Century, and the struggles of a socialist revolutionary movement. London describes the fall of the United States to the cruel fascist dictatorship of the Iron Heel, a group of monopoly capitalists. Fearing the popularity of socialism, the plutocrats of the Iron Heel conspire to eliminate democracy and, with their secret police and military, terrorise the citizenry. They instigate a German attack on Hawaii on Dec. 4, 1912; as socialist revolutions topple capitalist governments around the world, the Iron Heel has 52 socialist members of the U.S. Congress imprisoned for treason..."The Iron Heel" is based on Avis Everhards fictional "Everhard Manuscript" and was written by London as a womans first person narrative, not a common writing style at the time.

"The Sea-Wolf", published in 1904, is a psychological adventure novel by Jack London and one of his best-known works. This highly popular novel combines elements of naturalism and romantic adventure."The Sea-Wolf" narrates the story of Humphrey van Weyden, a literary critic. The story starts with him aboard a San Francisco ferry, called Martinez, which collides with another ship in the fog and sinks. He is set adrift in the Bay, eventually being picked up by Wolf Larsen. Larsen is the captain of a seal-hunting schooner, the Ghost. Brutal and cynical, yet also highly intelligent and intellectual, he rules over his ship and terrorises the crew with the aid of his exceptionally great physical strength.

"With the Adepts", the third of Hartmanns books written in 1910, and the first with a fictional setting, begins with a journey in the Alps. The narrator meets a mysterious dwarf. The dwarf takes him to an Adept who resides in a hidden Rosicrucian colony high in the mountains. This Adept proceeds to expound for a hundred and fifty pages on the Rosicrucian way, including Alchemy, Elementals and the acquisition of psychic powers. There is a demonstration of the transmutation of silver into gold using a red powder. The narrator also meets some of other residents, including two mysterious women who have vivid memories of their past lives, and the doppelganger of the Adept, who sends the narrator on a hallucinogenic night journey to the Indian ocean where he consorts with water spirits.On the whole, the book is a very straightforward read, unlike some of the other Rosicrucian tales; this is because the framing story is simply a fictional setting in which to examine the ideas, rather than a dense allegory. This book serves as a very compact introduction to this eternally fascinating subject of the invisible college.Franz Hartmann was a 19th century Bavarian physician, theosophist and writer. He emigrated to the United States, and became an American citizen, practising medicine in the then-frontier areas of the Midwest, including Missouri and Texas. He became interested in Spiritualism, and joined the Theosophists in 1883 at their enclave in Madras, India, a refuge similar in spirit to the one he pictures in this book. In his later years tended toward western rather than eastern esotericism.

"The Pirate" is a novel by the Scottish writer Sir Walter Scott, first published in 1822 and considered a masterpiece. For "The Pirate", Scott drew on his memories of a voyage to the Northern Isles in 1814, as guest of a commission inspecting Scotlands lighthouses. The novel was finished in little more than three months and was ready for publication in late October 1821. Hence, the novel is set at the beginning of the 18th century on the Shetland Islands, where Basil Mertoun lives as a tenant of Magnus Troil. In his youth, Mertoun has been betrayed by an unfaithful wife, and in a spirit of revenge, turned to piracy. Filled with self-reproach for his crimes, he lives as a recluse, along with his wifes son Mordaunt, whose paternity is doubtable."The Pirate" is also the story of the complicated romantic lives of the Troil sisters, Minna and Brenda.

At the conclusion of his book "From the Earth to the Moon", written in 1865, Jules Verne left his readersand his astronautshanging in the starry ether. The readers had it the worst, since Verne forced them to wait five years before he resolved the plot complications in his sequel "All Around the Moon".Picking up where "From the Earth to the Moon" left off this sequel follows the first lunar explorers in a dangerous journey around the moon. The worlds first 3 space travellers, Impey Barbicane, Michael Ardan and Captain Nicholl attempt to become the first men on the moon, but their journey is fraught with mishap. Will their trip succeed as they attempt to dodge asteroids and realise that the scientists on Earth have miscalculated their trajectory towards the moon?"All Around the Moon" is an engaging, well-written story. From where we are today if you consider it from the time it was written and everything we have developed along the way since, it is an amazing science-fiction book, a visionary masterpiece.

From the Earth to the Moon is a novel written by Jules Verne in 1865. The novel is the story of an inventor named Barbicane, and some other obsessive American Civil War veterans, members of the Baltimore Gun Club, who conceive the idea of creating an enormous cannon in order to shoot a space-bullet to the Moon from a site in Florida.Many difficulties arrest the creation of the canon, as its gargantuan size requires an astronomical amount of money and time to build. Eventually, however, the canon is completed. Shortly before its completion, a French adventurer named Ardan arrives to say that he wishes to travel inside of the bullet to the moon. A hollow capsule is made in which the Frenchman can travel and Barbicane and his long time rival, Captain Nicholl decide to go with him on the journey in order to settle their rivalry.Unfortunately, the Barbicanes astronomic calculations are slightly off and the capsule ends up orbiting the moon instead of landing on it. In the end, the three would-be astronauts are left orbiting the moon with no sign if they will ever manage to land."From the Earth to the Moon" is one of Vernes most well known works and is notable specifically for its early calculations for the requirements to the canon and their surprising realism, despite limited research on the moon at the time.This novel is the first part of Jules Vernes Classic science fiction duology describing mans space voyage that was followed by masterpiece "All Around the Moon".

Written in 1911 by American writer Jack London, "Adventure" tells about the confrontation between a man who finds himself alone in front of a plantation - harassed by black cannibals - and a bold, independent and liberated feminist woman, Joan Lackland, whos arrival at the plantation turns everything upside down..."Adventure", a devastating portrayal of colonialism and slavery set in the Solomon Islands, has generated considerable controversy since its publication over the question of whether London shared the racist beliefs of his characters or, on the contrary, was merely presenting them accurately.
