| martyn brooks: Tris 4 Morgan Bruce, 2022-11-18 Tris 4 is the fourth installment in the intriguing new sequel to the seven-book “Alexei” series. With Tris having survived the clutches of Ahaitan, he has since brought down the evildoing of his manipulative uncle, rescued a girl angel, Lara, and helped locate her twin brother, Rylan. In doing so, he also helped rescue a number of kidnapped children from a group of traffickers intent on selling them into slavery. Life for Tris then starts to settle down to normal on Seven Angels Island, a secret place located off the coast of Scotland, with involvement in school, music tuition, and TRNSaC, a rock band. An unwise visit, however, to a place of evil and torture – the church boot camp – results in Tris, Lara, and Rylan attracting the attention of Xaphan, a “turned” angel intent on coercing them into his corrupt ways. With the help of their guardians, the three children must find a way to thwart the intentions of this malevolent entity. |
| martyn brooks: Martyn Pig Kevin Brooks, 2006-03 With his father dead, Martyn has a choice. Tell the police what happened - and be suspected of murder. Or get rid of the body and get on with the rest of his life. Simple, right? Not quite. One story leads to another. Secrets and lies become darker and crazier. And Martyn is faced with twists and turns that leave him reeling. Life is never easy. But death is even harder. |
| martyn brooks: A Skip in Time Morgan Bruce, 2020-10-13 April 2012, Auckland, New Zealand. When twelve-year-old Martyn Brooks wakes up one morning to find himself in a totally unfamiliar world, it’s just the start of his nightmare day. He’s still in the same bedroom in the same house he’s always lived in, but somehow it’s all changed. All his belongings in his room are no longer there. Then a strange woman opens the door and demands he get out of bed, so he won’t miss the school bus. If he misses the bus, comes a threat of having to deal with his father over being disobedient. Even the fact that he should have to go to school has him puzzled, because it’s a teacher-only day before the start of the April school holidays. As Martyn dresses, his puzzlement increases. For some reason, his uniform is different – a black top instead of white – and why does he have to wear a cap? The rest of his house is also strangely different, and he now has a younger sister. When he crosses the road to the bus stop, the boy waiting there is his new younger brother! The trip to school passes through changed streets, and a glance at the morning newspaper brings further startling revelations: It’s Friday, April 13, 1962. In some unfathomable way, Martyn has jumped back fifty years in time. With no clue how to return to his proper time, Martyn has entered a nightmare existence, a day of tribulations and sufferings that will eventually lead to the solving of a fifty-year-old mystery. |
| martyn brooks: Tris Morgan Bruce, 2021-03-11 The first installment of the intriguing new sequel to the Alexei, Accidental Angel series, aka “The Angel heptalogy” Facing a childless future, Amanda and Joshua’s return to the Scottish island that once harboured the seven boy angels they knew from their childhood days almost 20 years earlier, is made complete when they are able to officially adopt their Godchild. Tris has very quickly been dubbed “The Miracle Child” by the media for being the sole survivor of a catastrophic plane crash that killed his parents and almost two hundred other passengers. Within a few months of his recovery and adaption to life on the island, an even greater miracle occurs when Tris starts to grow wings – an event that perhaps signals the start of a new age of miracles on the island. His gradual metamorphosis into an angel, however, is not as straightforward as it first seems. As his various angelic abilities begin to emerge at an almost surprising rate, somewhere, hidden from even guardian Mykael, there is great danger waiting to be unleashed on the island, and its small, but loyal, community. |
| martyn brooks: Tris 3 Morgan Bruce, 2021-07-22 This is the third installment of Tris, the intriguing new sequel to the “Alexei” series. Previously, Tris survived the clutches of a wicked angel, brought down the evildoing of his manipulative uncle, and redeemed himself in the eyes of those on the island. Tris is now suddenly confronted with a girl who is also a child-angel. Lara is on the run from a small U.S. military group, who have been her captors since she first developed her wings. They call on guardian Mykael and other senior angels to help thwart the military’s attempts to recapture Lara, but events take a surprising turn when she reveals that she has a twin brother, Rylan, whom she hasn’t seen for almost five years, ever since he was adopted by another family. Aware that Rylan might also have angelic abilities, Tris and Andrew immediately begin a search for him, starting in New York. Knowing that Rylan had also been brutalised by Pastor Isaac and is on the run from his abusive parents, as well as a deviant child psychiatrist, they soon uncover an illegal network trafficking abducted children. copyright [©] 2021 Auckland, New Zealand |

| martyn brooks: Walter’s Child Morgan Bruce, 2020-08-05 For Police Sergeant Roger Maddox, the morning’s work at his small rural police station of Westford has amounted to the usual slow routine. If not for its rather remote location, the station would have been amalgamated with the nearby district of Hokitika years ago. On this particular Tuesday in the rather small township, located mid-way down the west coast of the South Island of New Zealand, a small boy wanders into the station and quietly announces: “My … my name is Rabbit. Walter told me to come here and tell you my name. I need to find some parents.” Sergeant Maddox is at first a little bemused by the name and strangeness of the situation, thinking it just a simple case of a lost child. But the facts soon prove otherwise. Especially when this slight, ‘almost eleven-year-old” boy turns out to be the spitting image of a seven-year-old who was presumed drowned in an alpine river over fourteen years ago. |

| martyn brooks: Transport, Climate Change and the City Robin Hickman, David Banister, 2014-02-05 Sustainable mobility has long been sought after in cities around the world, particularly in industrialised countries, but also increasingly in the emerging cities in Asia. Progress however appears difficult to make as the private car, still largely fuelled by petrol or diesel, remains the mainstream mode of use. Transport is the key sector where carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions seem difficult to reduce. Transport, Climate Change and the City seeks to develop achievable and low transport CO2 emission futures in a range of international case studies, including in London, Oxfordshire, Delhi, Jinan and Auckland. The aim is that the scenarios as developed, and the consideration of implementation and governance issues, can help us plan for and achieve attractive future travel behaviours at the city level. The alternative is to continue with only incremental progress against CO2 reduction targets, to ‘sleepwalk’ into climate change difficulties, oil scarcity, a poor quality of life, and to continue with the high traffic casualty figures. The topic is thus critical, with transport viewed as central to the achievement of the sustainable city and reduced CO2 emissions. |
| martyn brooks: The Road of the Dead Kevin Brooks, 2010-02-01 “Peopled with singular protagonists and downright scary villains, this bleak-yet-romantic tale is a whirlwind ride for the right reader.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) On a storm-ravaged night, a nineteen-year-old girl is kidnapped, raped, and killed. Three days later, her two younger brothers set out in search of her murderer. Cole, seventeen, is a dark-eyed devil who doesn’t care if he lives or dies, while Ruben, fourteen, is a strange child who sometimes, inexplicably, experiences sensations above and beyond his own. This is the story of the boys’ journey from their half-Roma home on a London junk lot to the ghostly moors of Devon, where they hope and fear to find the truth about their sister’s death. It’s a long road, cold and hard and violent. It’s The Road of the Dead. “Fans of Brooks’s Martyn Pig, Kissing the Rain, Candy and Lucas, won’t be disappointed by this thrilling, gritty story and it’s memorable, heart-breaking characters.” —Kirkus Reviews “Brooks’s feel for mood and setting is as masterful here as in his taut, noir Martyn Pig. A haunting, tense drama builds from the first line and only lets up for scenes of brutal, vivid violence that bring readers back down to earth.” —School Library Journal “Brooks succeeds on every level with this enthralling mystery/thriller that will keep readers turning pages well past bedtime. The descriptions are poetic, and the dialogue is lyrical but realistic.” —Horn Book |

| martyn brooks: Small Hours Graeme Thomson, 2024-03-14 Small Hours is an intimate, unflinching biography of one of the great maverick artists. Though Martyn never had a hit single, his extraordinary voice, innovative guitar playing and profoundly soulful songs secured his status as a much admired pioneer. Covered by Eric Clapton, revered by Lee Scratch Perry, and produced by Phil Collins, Martyn influenced several generations of musicians. But beneath the songs lay a complicated and volatile personality. He lived his life the same way he made music: improvising as he went; scattering brilliance, beauty, rage, and destruction in his wake. Did any musician in the Seventies fly so free as John Martyn did on Bless The Weather, Solid Air, Inside Out, and One World? Did any fall so far? Drawing on almost 100 new interviews, Small Hours is a raw and utterly gripping account of sixty years of daredevil creativity, soaring highs, and sometimes unconscionable lows. |

| martyn brooks: Ethics in Qualitative Research Martyn Hammersley, Anna Traianou, 2012-05-17 All social researchers need to think about ethical issues. Their salience has recently been increased by the pressures of ethical regulation, particularly in the case of qualitative research. But what are ethical issues? And how should they be approached? These are not matters about which there is agreement. Ethics in Qualitative Research explores conflicting philosophical assumptions, the diverse social contexts in which ethical problems arise, and the complexities of handling them in practice. The authors argue that the starting point for any discussion of research ethics must be the values intrinsic to research, above all the commitment to knowledge-production. However, the pursuit of inquiry is rightly constrained by external values, and the book focuses on three of these: minimising harm, respecting autonomy, and protecting privacy. These external values are shown to be far from unequivocal in character, often in conflict with one another (or with the commitments of research), and always subject to situational interpretation and practical judgment. Nevertheless, it is contended that in the present challenging times it is essential that qualitative researchers uphold research values. Martyn Hammersley is Professor of Educational and Social Research at The Open University. Anna Traianou is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Educational Studies, Goldsmiths, University of London. |

Knighton, 2004 Continuing work on Pepys's library, and recent discoveries, necessitate expansion of the content and entries in the original volumes. This is the first in the Supplementary Series. Pepys's library has been, as he directed, preserved intact at his old Cambridge college since 1724. Between 1978 and 1994 a complete catalogue was published for the first time. The present title, essential to all users of the first volume in that series, N.A. Smith's Printed Books, vastly enhances the range of information available. The short-title arrangement of Printed Books is replaced by a numerical listing which follows the library's shelf-order; many entries have been extended, and where possible updated with reference to new scholarship; the location of MSS and other material treated elsewhere in the catalogue is also indicated, providing for the first time a published conspectus of the whole library. Extensive indexes have been provided for authors and ancillary contributors, subjects, printers and places of publication, and references which reflect Pepys himself and his bibliophilism.Concordances identify the Pepys books covered by STC, Wing, ESTC and other bibliographies. Dr CHARLES KNIGHTON gained his Ph D from Magdalene College, Cambridge. |

| martyn brooks: Management of Amphibians, Reptiles, and Small Mammals in North America Robert C. Szaro, Kieth E. Severson, David R. Patton, 1988 Historically the management of public lands from a multiple use perspective has led to a system that emphasizes those habitat components or faunal elements that primarily resulted in some sort of definable economic value. While this often benefitted other species that were not even considered in the original prescriptions, it also negatively impacted others. We no longer can afford to take this simplistic view of ecosystem management. We need to use a more holistic approach where ecological landscapes are considered as units, and land management practices incorporate all elements into an integrated policy. This includes examining the impacts of proposed land uses on amphibian, reptile, and small mammal populations. |

| martyn brooks: Dogchild Kevin Brooks, 2020-06-16 A boy raised by wild dogs fights for survival in this gripping post apocalyptic tale by an acclaimed Carnegie Medalist. Jeet is a dogchild, raised by the wild dogs who killed his parents, then recaptured and “rehumanized.” He now lives with one of only two remaining human communities in the world, besieged by the much larger enemy clan. In a wasteland shaped by war, starvation, and haunting violence, Jeet grapples with his identity — he misses his wild family, and the people of his clan see dogchilds as less than human. When the human clans begin to prepare for a final, bloody battle against each other, Jeet is at the center. His struggle and his relationship with another rehumanized dogchild shed light on what it means to be human or inhuman — and what it takes to be a survivor. In his most ambitious novel yet, Carnegie Medalist Kevin Brooks offers a breathless work of speculative fiction that will have readers at the edge of their seat. |
