Book Description

She felt Ramn come awake and spring from the bed, naked and lithe as a jungle cat. She heard the metallic snicker of a firearm as he snatched the pistol from the holster. In the darkness a yellow flower of gun-flamed bloomed, and a single bullet whiplashed across twenty yards of open ground... In the searing heat of a divided Africa two decades of bitter dynastic conflict explode with terrifying ferocity. To Gary and Sean Courtney it is a struggle to the end; brother pitted against brother as they are dragged unwittingly into the lair of an international terrorist. Only Isabella Courtney stands between them and the mutual destruction they have willed for so long. Beautiful, headstrong Isabella; the link to 'Golden Fox' - a man whose alias hides a sinister and deadly secret... Traversing a vast panorama, from the heart of London society to the grandeur of Spain, from parched Ethiopia to war-torn Angola and on to the blazing hunting grounds of South Africa and Zimbabwe, Golden Fox is masterful storytelling from the arena of war; an adventure of stirring, irresistible intensity.

Book Description

A Kirkus Best Picture Book of 2020 "A beautiful, fully realized dreamscape." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Little Fox frolics with butterflies, scavenges for food, and searches for new friends—despite his father's warning that danger lurks all around. Then one day he takes a tumble, bumps his head, and starts dreaming of things that reflect both the beauty he's seen and the scary things he's heard. Marije Tolman's ingenious illustrations use a fresh technique that feels like a movie and a dream, starring the cheerful, bright orange Little Fox on grainy mixed media landscapes of blue and green. And when Little Fox wakes up, he's perhaps a little wiser, but still every bit as curious and full of life.

Book Description

The Fox with the Golden Tail: A FABLE WITH AN ESOTERIC SIGNIFICANCEBY C.SUBRAMANIA BHARATHI Published in 1914.It is, so to speak forced on me by the importunity of some local friends whom the spirit of the age impels to do something towards knocking down what has been aptly described as the most colossal spiritual fraud of the ages.It is admitted on all hands that the ancient Hindus has scaled the extreme heights of spiritual realisation. But I think, however that the Hindus of the last generation especially the English educated men, have been the biggest guilt of any age or country. And we, of the present generation are resolved that the swindlers shall no longer pursue their trades peacefully in our country. And this is the esoteric meaning of the fable.
