Category: Novels eBook Title: Atomsk, Spy novel Author: Carmichael Smith eBook Description:
Atomsk is a clever and engaging spy novel.... Written by Paul M. A. Linebarger under the pen name of Carmichael Smith - shortly before he began writing as Cordwainer Smith - Atomsk is out of print. Copies of it fetch hundreds of dollars in the used book market. It's always been one of my favorites of my father's writings, so recently, for those of you who are readers more than collectors, I spent some time scanning in my copy and making an ebook. You can read it onscreen or print it out. Atomsk begins not long after World War II, with the American military in occupied Japan concerned about a very secret Russian city in Siberia. General Coppersmith asks Major Michael Dugan, "the greatest spy in the world," to help: "I want you to spoil the secret of Atomsk." "Atomsk?" Coppermsith spelled it out, adding, "It's the Russian atomic center. We want them to know that we know all about it. We want them to guess as to how we know about it... For that, we need a man as a weapon." "To go in, to get out, and after he was out, to leave traces?" "Right." Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 9.95 Date: 2004-04-30 Visits: 4061

Category: Novels eBook Title: The Lily Author: Simon Mitchell eBook Description:
This land is my memories. For two thousand years this valley has been mine alone. I know every rock, every stream and every tree. I know the forces that shape this land and the people who inhabit it. This land is me. A billion years ago this land was a migratory trail for the animals of Western Europe. They roamed freely across the huge land of one continent. Millennia passed as the rivers washed silt to the ocean and the sun raised rain to the sky. At that time the mass of Eurasia was joined. The tectonic plates shifted and islands formed, raising proud, green peninsulas on green water, thrust out to the ocean. Long before my time the forces of nature battled along the coasts of Western Europe. From the Southwest, the Gulf Stream warmed and opened the land with summer heat. From the north, ice raged and cracked the rock of what would become the British Isles. Buy this ebook here. | | | | Price: 10 Date: 2009-10-20 Visits: 544

Reviewed by on 2011-11-28 My Rate 4 This is the author's nearest approach to a crime novel, if with an ideological and philosophical difference that sets it apart from the run of such novels. A good if at times chilling read.
