Insightful and brilliantly written, this book provides the reader with a full understanding of one of the most unexpected and significant events in recent years. This book explains why the publication of The Satanic Verses became a cataclysmic event, with far-reaching consequences. Never has a book sparked such international controversy and following were some of the results: ** An edict by a head of state calling for the assassination of a foreign author ** Riots, bombings, and assassinations resulting in the death of twenty people ** A threat of censorship hitting at the heart of the West`s belief in freedom of expression ** Even a clash of civilizations - that of the fundamentalist Muslim versus the free-thinking Westerner The author explains what the fundamentalists perceived, and what the novel actually said, that proved so offensive to some Muslims. In fact, for many, the novel`s title was enough to enrage them without ever reading the text. He further explains how Rushdie`s book created a new crisis between Iran and the West - disrupting international diplomacy. He also spells out the chilling, long term implications of the crisis. If the Ayatollah so easily intimidated the West, can others now do the same? Can millions of fundamentalist Muslims now living in the United States and Europe possibly be assimilated in a culture so alien to them? Events surrounding Rushdie`s book could have a major impact on the future of our civilization.

Paperback. 'Sensuous and transporting...filled with the colours, tastes and fragrances of life in 17th century Isfahan. Amirrezvani clearly knows and loves the ways of old Iran, and brings them to life with the cadences of a skilled story-spinner' Geraldine Brooks THE BLOOD OF FLOWERS is a mesmerizing historical novel about a young Iranian woman whose destiny changes on the sudden death of her father. Forced to leave their village, the woman and her mother travel to the beautiful city of Isfahan, where they are taken in by an uncle, a wealthy carpet designer, and his unsympathetic wife. When an ill-considered action results in the heroine's fall from grace, she is forced into an extraordinary secret marriage. Spirited and rebellious, she wants to be free to live a life her own choosing, if she can find a way. 'The most wonderful book...Fascinating, totally original and utterly gripping' Esther Freud 'The prose...positively glows on the page, and the characterisation is similarly acute, notably of the wonderfully drawn heroine.

The revelations on Mars -- a half-million year-old legacy of the vanished star-traveling Builders -- have fed the flames of catastrophic war. A beleaguered United States and its Russian and Japanese allies struggle to hold their own against the indomitable forces of the enemy United Nations. The bloody conflict that has swept over the home planet now rages across the blackness of space -- with the U.S. Marine Corps in the vanguard, leading the charge as always. But Mars is not the sole repository of alien wonders. The Earth's moon hides unsettling mysteries of its own-and dangerous secrets pointing toward an unstoppable threat advancing from somewhere beyond the solar system. And as scientists on both sides ract to utilize technology they have only barely begun to comprehend, the UN makes the opening move in a gambit that could end the hostilities quickly and decisively by bringing about the death of millions...without the aid of alien-inspired weaponry. A bad situation worsens by the nanosecond. And that means it's time to call in the Marines -- to make a life or death stand on the gray shores of Luna., 2.5, Booklocker.com, Inc.

As the young Legion trooper Thinker and his comrades of Squad Beta fight their way into the Camp of the O's on Andrion 3, they fear their only mission is to die for the Legion. Their enemy has never known defeat, and the squad is helpless and terrified in the grip of the alien's awesome psypower. The battlefield is soon littered with the pitted, smoking A-suits of Thinker's closest comrades.nnThe secrets that the squad uncovers on Andrion 3 will transform galactic politics and launch Beta into a seemingly suicidal attack against Omni targets on a hostile System world in a last ditch effort to exploit newly perceived enemy vulnerabilities. As they drop onto Mongera like microbes, they know it must be victory or death. Failure could mean extinction for their species. Forced to cooperate with their sworn Systie enemies, they meet the O in a burning city and duel with it under nuclear skies. Thinker's Legion lover Priestess is right by his side, and they pledge they will live or die together. They both know that immortality is a cruel joke for a Legion trooper, and the angel of death is with them every instant. As he advances on the O, Thinker is filled with a burning resolve and vows that if he goes out it will be with a record body count.nnIn the era of total galactic warfare, can one squad really make a difference? ., Booklocker.com, Inc.
