tickle intruder: Spindle W.R. Gingell, What is a maiden to do when her prince is not a prince, her hair won’t stop growing, and someone has cursed her to sleep for 300 years? In Polyhymnia’s case, it seems expedient to get up with the help of a kiss or two, trailing her hair behind her, and find out who did it. Nothing quite works out as planned, however. Poly can’t be sure if that’s because she never seems to be able to remember things like the mysterious spindle that keeps showing up around her, or if it’s the fault of the wizard who woke her but never stops long enough to explain anything. Poly is determined in two things: One, that she will find out who cursed her to sleep and meddled with her memories. Two: that she will absolutely not fall in love with the irritating wizard who seems to need to keep kissing her back into the real world… Spindle is a fairytale retelling of Sleeping Beauty with a dash of Rapunzel. If you love fairytales, clean fantasy, enchanters, and magical villages, not to mention Diana Wynne Jones, Robin McKinley, and Gail Carson Levine, you'll probably love Spindle! |

Now a young adult, Alice returns to her fantastical roots only to find her beloved realm under the iron grip of a perplexing clockwork tyrant. This new ruler has twisted Wonderland’s enchanting essence into a realm of rigid order, where whimsy is all but forgotten, and imagination is shackled by gears and cogs. Reunited with her eccentric companions—the ever-charming Cheshire Cat, the delightfully mad Mad Hatter, and the frenetic White Rabbit—Alice embarks on a quest to restore the magic that once flowed through the heart of Wonderland. As they navigate clockwork gardens where flowers tick and tock, and a tea party eternally frozen in time, Alice grapples with the delicate balance between the innocence of childhood and the responsibilities of adulthood.

Shadow by night... The Great Betrayal changed everything for the Allied Realm. Long ago, the kingdom’s noble houses rose up against the goddess... and for their treachery, the firstborn of each noble family was cursed. One with perilous beauty. One with destructive knowledge. One with insatiable bloodlust. But the royal house Mortara received the worst affliction of all. For while the king exists during the day, he fades into nothingness at night...until his twenty-first birthday, when he will be lost to the shadows forever. Now an acolyte has arrived at court. Like all the second-born children of the Allied Realm, she’s destined to serve the goddess and become a Seer...only Cerise Solon has no gift of foretelling. In fact, she has no magical gift at all. Instead, she’s surrounded by courtiers and priests—smiling sycophants whose hearts are filled with secrets and lies. And at the center of it all sits His Majesty Kian Hannibal Mortara, with his haunting eyes, sharp tongue, and an unerring ability to send her pulse skittering at the worst possible moments. Falling for him is unthinkable. Because the king is the last of his line, and as the specter of his twenty-first birthday—and the full force of his curse—approaches, the kingdom holds its breath. But there’s only one way to save a dying king... and it lies with the one person who’s hiding the biggest secret of all. Cerise. |

His experiences and acute observations fostered a profound empathy for the challenges faced by those living in remote regions. Duncan'Äôs commitment to portraying the resilience of human spirit, even in the direst circumstances, is palpable in Doctor Luke, which reflects both his respect for and fascination with the rugged endurance of the Labrador people.

tickle intruder: Spy and telepath, I hacked UFOs: Towards the final declassification Bellin, 2024-09-20 This book is the exceptional document of a whistleblower who will probably rank with Edward Snowden, but for UFOs. Scary: he worked on an unthinkable hypothesis regarding the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines flight MH 370 in 2014! This book indeed recounts the work of a telepathic spy, or Remote-Viewer, who worked on UFOs, inside the secret services in France - a state known to be very opaque. This is a huge scoop: every major intelligence service in the world does indeed have telepathic spy groups, links in global intelligence chains. But never, before this testimony, had anyone described to such an extent the intimacy and violence of the functioning of these services, when they direct their very high technicality towards the understanding of an immemorial enigma: that of UFOs, to which they provides a new and revolutionary explanation. But it is its French readers who talk about it best. “Beyond the infinite and the timeless. Excellent work. The author immerses us in an unknown universe, not to say unknown. It opens up unsuspected perspectives. An indispensable book. Excellent writing, which, through the interview with Anonymous, allows neophytes as well as those who wonder about the secret actions of the french secret services to discover the objectives and the means deployed, in order to spy and manipulate any guy. An investigation experienced from the inside, between spies, UFOs, extraterrestrials and state services. Being a ufology enthusiast since 1965, I found this book excellent in that, probably for the first time, it discusses the operation of the secret services in relation to the UFO subject and the various ufological movements. The author voluntarily maintains a dose of uncertainty whose only purpose is to protect himself against the possible actions of the intelligence services. It's heavy. A must read for anyone interested in the subject. Very interesting. To Read ++++++++ Very interesting, instructive and edifying book. Describes remarkably well how we are watched by the intelligence services and by Space beings in particular, all those who have an ethic and love and defend truth and democracy. Truth will eventually triumph, Light will prevail over darkness! Being the target of Remote Viewers I can tell you that everything told in this book is true, at least for the remote viewing part: if one day you hear voices you are not necessarily ''crazy'' . Beware of what you think, someone else may think it for you. “The brain has no firewall”!!! “Exceptional book: the book holds a lot of secrets for those who want to hear. » |

tickle intruder: American Ethnographic Film and Personal Documentary Scott MacDonald, 2013-07-01 American Ethnographic Film and Personal Documentary is a critical history of American filmmakers crucial to the development of ethnographic film and personal documentary. The Boston and Cambridge area is notable for nurturing these approaches to documentary film via institutions such as the MIT Film Section and the Film Study Center, the Carpenter Center and the Visual and Environmental Studies Department at Harvard. Scott MacDonald uses pragmatism’s focus on empirical experience as a basis for measuring the groundbreaking achievements of such influential filmmakers as John Marshall, Robert Gardner, Timothy Asch, Ed Pincus, Miriam Weinstein, Alfred Guzzetti, Ross McElwee, Robb Moss, Nina Davenport, Steve Ascher and Jeanne Jordan, Michel Negroponte, John Gianvito, Alexander Olch, Amie Siegel, Ilisa Barbash, and Lucien Castaing-Taylor. By exploring the cinematic, personal, and professional relationships between these accomplished filmmakers, MacDonald shows how a pioneering, engaged, and uniquely cosmopolitan approach to documentary developed over the past half century. |
tickle intruder: Arturo's Island: A Novel Elsa Morante, 2019-02-19 “Astonishing for the quality of the writing . . . the complexity of the invented world, the wide- ranging view of the human condition.”— Elena Ferrante Elsa Morante’s novels were once considered the greatest of Italy’s postwar generation. Here, Ann Goldstein’s “deft translation” (Madeline Schwartz, New York Review of Books) of Arturo’s Island heralds a “second life” for the beloved author, finally garnering Morante “the new readers she deserves” (Lily Tuck, Wall Street Journal). Imbued with a spectral grace, the novel follows the adolescent Arturo through his days on the isolated Neapolitan island of Procida, where—his mother long deceased, his father often absent, and a dog as his sole companion—he roams the countryside or reads in his family’s lonely, dilapidated mansion. This quiet, meandering boyhood existence is existentially upended when his father brings home a beautiful sixteen- year- old bride, Nunziatella. A novel of thwarted desires, written with “the power of malediction” (Dwight Garner, New York Times), Arturo’s Island reemerges to take its rightful place in the world literary canon. |
