Paleontologist Richard Leyster is studying the dinosaur-fossil discovery of a lifetime when a stranger comes into his office with an ice cooler and an offer: a mysterious and dangerous job that pays no better than Leyster's beloved current position at the Smithsonian. He rejects the offer and the stranger departs, leaving the cooler. Leyster opens the cooler and finds the head of a just-slain stegosaur. It really is an offer he can't refuse: a job that will allow him to study living dinosaurs. But the stranger has disappeared, and Leyster has no idea where to find him.
Expanded from his Hugo Award-winning story "Scherzo with Tyrannosaur," Michael Swanwick's Bones of the Earth is a time-travel novel as exciting as Jurassic Park and far more intelligent. In addition to the Hugo, Michael Swanwick has won the Nebula, World Fantasy, and Theodore Sturgeon Awards. His previous books include the novels In the Drift, Vacuum Flowers, and Griffin's Egg, and his collections include Gravity's Angels, A Geography of Unknown Lands, and Moon Dogs, among others. --Cynthia Ward [via]
› Find signed collectible books: 'Catastrophobia: The Truth Behind Earth Changes in the Coming Age of Light'
" Bestselling author Barbara Hand Clow examines legendary cataclysms and shows how we are about to overcome the collective fear they have instilled in us.
" The long-awaited follow-up that continues the revelations begun in The Pleiadian Agenda, which has sold more than 60,000 copies.
" Explains why, contrary to many prophets of doom, we are actually on the cusp of an era of incredible creative growth.
The recent discovery of the remains of ancient villages buried beneath the Black Sea is the latest instance of mounting evidence that many of the "mythic" catastrophes of history--the fall of Atlantis, the Biblical Flood--were actual events. In Catastrophobia Barbara Hand Clow shows that a series of cataclysmic disasters, caused by a massive disturbance in the Earth's crust 11,500 years ago, rocked the world and left humanity's collective psyche permanently scarred. We are a wounded species, and this unprocessed fear, passed from generation to generation, is responsible for our constant expectations of apocalypse, from Y2K to the famed end of the Mayan calendar in 2012.
Catastrophobia reveals the insidious global forces that have used these collective fears to control humanity for thousands of years. But we are in the midst of a tremendous shift in the Earth's 26,000-year precessional cycle, and there is every indication that the changes in consciousness over the last 30 years are the beginnings of a collective healing from these deep fears, heralding a new age where we will see that the era of cataclysms is ending and a time of extraordinary creative activity is at hand.

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Clan of the Cave Bear'
When her parents are killed by an earthquake, 5-year-old Ayla wanders through the forest completely alone. Cold, hungry, and badly injured by a cave lion, the little girl is as good as gone until she is discovered by a group who call themselves the Clan of the Cave Bear. This clan, left homeless by the same disaster, have little interest in the helpless girl who comes from the tribe they refer to as the "Others." Only their medicine woman sees in Ayla a fellow human, worthy of care. She painstakingly nurses her back to health--a decision that will forever alter the physical and emotional structure of the clan. Although this story takes place roughly 35,000 years ago, its cast of characters could easily slide into any modern tale. The members of the Neanderthal clan, ruled by traditions and taboos, find themselves challenged by this outsider, who represents the physically modern Cro-Magnons. And as Ayla begins to grow and mature, her natural tendencies emerge, putting her in the middle of a brutal and dangerous power struggle.
Although Jean Auel obviously takes certain liberties with the actions and motivations of all our ancestors, her extensive research into the Ice Age does shine through--especially in the detailed knowledge of plants and natural remedies used by the medicine woman and passed down to Ayla. Mostly, though, this first in the series of four is a wonderful story of survival. Ayla's personal evolution is a compelling and relevant tale. --Sara Nickerson [via]

" Was Adam the first test-tube baby?
" Did nuclear fission destroy Sodom and Gomorrah?
" How were the ancients able to accurately describe details about our solar system that are only now being revealed by deep space probes?
The awesome answers are all here, in this important companion volume to The Earth Chronicles series. Having presented evidence of an additional planet as well as voluminous information about the other planets in our solar system, Zecharia Sitchin now shows how the discoveries of modern astrophysics, astronomy, and genetics exactly parallel what has already been revealed in ancient texts regarding the "mysteries" of alchemy and the creation of life. Genesis Revisited is a mind-boggling revelation sure to overturn current theories about the origins of humankind and the solar system. [via]

Sir James George Frazer (1854-1941) is rightly regarded as one of the founders of modern anthropology. The Golden Bough, his masterpiece, appeared in twelve volumes between 1890 and 1915. This volume is the author's own abridgement of his great work, and was first published in 1922. Remarkable for its vast assembly of facts and its charm of presentation, it offers the thesis that man progresses from magic through religious belief to scientific thought. It discusses fertility rites, human sacrifice, the dying god, the scapegoat and many other symbols and practices which have influenced a whole generation of 20th century writers, including D.H. Lawrence, Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot. [via]

Dotada de gran habilidad narrativa y haciendo gala de la misma vÍvida autenticidad que plasmó en El clan del oso cavernario y su continuación, El valle de los caballos, Jean M. Auel sigue el imponente y épico viaje de la mujer llamada Ayla. Acompañada de Jondalar, el hombre al que ama, cabalgando sobre Relinchona, su yegua, y seguidos por el potro de ésta, Ayla se aventura en la tierra de los Mamutoi: los cazadores de mamuts. Por fin ha encontrado a los Otros, a quienes ha estado buscando. Los Otros la adoptan debido a su notable habilidad para la medicina y la caza y su extraordinaria técnica para encender el fuego. Luego de traer al cachorrito de un lobo al que ha matado, Ayla también les enseña la forma en que domestica animales. Hace amigas, tiene dolorosos recuerdos del Clan que abandonó y conoce a Ranec, un moreno y magnético hombre, experto en la talla del marfil, y al cual ella no puede rechazar; esto provoca en Jondalar unos celos feroces; pero él la evita para tratar de controlarlos. Poco familiarizada con las costumbres de los Otros, Ayla se equivoca, piensa que Jondalar ya no la ama y se acerca cada vez más a Ranec. La tensión aumenta a lo largo del helado invierno, pero las temperaturas más cálidas traen la caza de los grandes mamuts y los rituales de parejas en el Encuentro del Verano, en donde Ayla debe escoger entre quedarse junto a Ranec y los Mamutoi, o seguir a Jondalar en un largo viaje hacia un futuro desconocido.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Los Refugios De Piedra'
From the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo to the 1960s, Mexican American Catholics experienced racism and discrimination within the U.S. Catholic church, as white priests and bishops maintained a racial divide in all areas of the church's ministry. To oppose this religious apartheid and challenge the church to minister fairly to all of its faithful, a group of Chicano priests formed PADRES (Padres Asociados para Derechos Religiosos, Educativos y Sociales, or Priests Associated for Religious, Educational, and Social Rights) in 1969. Over the next twenty years, PADRES became a powerful force for change within the Catholic church and for social justice within American society. This book offers the first history of the founding, activism, victories, and defeats of PADRES. At the heart of the book are oral history interviews with the founders of PADRES, who describe how their ministries in poor Mexican American parishes, as well as their own experiences of racism and discrimination within and outside the church, galvanized them into starting and sustaining the movement. Richard Martinez traces the ways in which PADRES was inspired by the Chicano movement and other civil rights struggles of the 1960s and also probes its linkages with liberation theology in Latin America. He uses a combination of social movement theory and organizational theory to explain how the group emerged, flourished, and eventually disbanded in 1989.... RICHARD EDWARD MARTINEZ is an independent scholar who lives and works in San Antonio, Texas. He holds a Ph.D. in urban planning from UCLA. [via]

Once again Jean M. Auel opens the door of a time long past to reveal an age of wonder and danger at the dawn of the modern human race. With all the consummate storytelling artistry and vivid authenticity she brought to The Clan of the Cave Bear and its sequel, The Valley of Horses, Jean M. Auel continues the breathtaking epic journey of the woman called Ayla.
Riding Whinney with Jondalar, the man she loves, and followed by the mares colt, Ayla ventures into the land of the Mamutoi--the Mammoth Hunters. She has finally found the Others she has been seeking. Though Ayla must learn their different customs and language, she is adopted because of her remarkable hunting ability, singular healing skills, and uncanny fire-making technique. Bringing back the single pup of a lone wolf she has killed, Ayla shows the way she tames animals. She finds women friends and painful memories of the Clan she left behind, and meets Ranec, the dark-skinned, magnetic master carver of ivory, whom she cannot refuse--inciting Jondalar to a fierce jealousy that he tries to control by avoiding her. Unfamiliar with the ways of the Others, Ayla misunderstands, and thinking Jondalar no longer loves her, she turns more to Ranec. Throughout the icy winter the tension mounts, but warming weather will bring the great mammoth hunt and the mating rituals of the Summer Meeting, when Ayla must choose to remain with Ranec and the Mamutoi, or to follow Jondalar on a long journey into an unknown future.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Shelters of Stone'
Jean Auel's fifth novel about Ayla, the Cro-Magnon cavewoman raised by Neanderthals, is the biggest comeback bestseller in Amazon.com history. In The Shelters of Stone, Ayla meets the Zelandonii tribe of Jondalar, the Cro-Magnon hunk she rescued from Baby, her pet lion. Ayla is pregnant. How will Jondalar's mom react? Or his bitchy jilted fiancée? Ayla wows her future in-laws by striking fire from flint and taming a wild wolf. But most regard her Neanderthal adoptive Clan as subhuman "flatheads." Clan larynxes can't quite manage language, and Ayla must convince the Zelandonii that Clan sign language isn't just arm-flapping. Zelandonii and Clan are skirmishing, and those who interbreed are deemed "abominations." What would Jondalar's tribe think if they knew Ayla had to abandon her half-breed son in Clan country? The plot is slow to unfold, because Auel's first goal is to pack the tale with period Pleistocene detail, provocative speculation, and bits of romance, sex, tribal politics, soap opera, and homicidal wooly rhino-hunting adventure. It's an enveloping fact-based fantasy, a genre-crossing time trip to the Ice Age. --Tim Appelo [via]

This unforgettable odyssey into the distant past carries us back to the awesome mysteries of the exotic, primeval world of The Clan of the Cave Bear, and to Ayla, now grown into a beautiful and courageous young woman.
Cruelly cast out by the new leader of the ancient Clan that adopted her as a child, Ayla leaves those she loves behind and travels alone through a stark, open land filled with dangerous animals but few people, searching for the Others, tall and fair like herself. The short summer gives her little time to look, and when she finds a sheltered valley with a herd of hardy steppe horses, she decides to stay and prepare for the long glacial winter ahead. Living with the Clan has taught Ayla many skills but not real hunting. She finally knows she can survive when she traps a horse, which gives her meat and a warm pelt for the winter, but fate has bestowed a greater gift, an orphaned foal with whom she develops a unique kinship. One winter extends to more; she discovers a way to make fire more quickly and a wounded cave lion cub joins her unusual family, but her beloved animals dont fulfill her restless need for human companionship. Then she hears the sound of a man screaming in pain. She saves tall, handsome Jondalar, who brings her a language to speak and an awakening of love and desire, but Ayla is torn between her fear of leaving her valley and her hope of living with her own kind.

Robert Graves, the late British poet and novelist, was also known for his studies of the mythological and psychological sources of poetry. With The White Goddess: A Historical Grammar of Poetic Myth, Graves was able to combine many of his passions into one work. While the book is so poetically written that many of the passages amount to prose poems, it is also frequently plot driven enough to feel like a novel, and it is rich with scholarly insight into the deep wells of poetry. Especially fascinating is the chapter in which Graves explores the ancient and ongoing practice of poets' invoking the muse. Graves details the practice in both the Eastern and Western literary traditions, and shows specific similarities and differences among Greek, British, and Irish tales and myths about the muse. Graves has much to offer students of history and myth, but poetry lovers will also be fascinated with The White Goddess. [via]

2500 years ago, the women of Athens slaved at home, virtual prisoners of their husbands, expected to provide the cloth and clothing for their family. 4000 years ago in ancient Mesopotamia, there was a very different picture: respectable women were in business, weaving textiles at home to be sold abroad for gold and silver. Going back even further, 20,000 years ago women began making and wearing the first clothing created from spun fibres. Indeed, for over 20,000 years, until the Industrial Revolution, the arts of weaving belonged primarily to women and were the principal vehicle for demonstrating their various roles as mother, provider, worker, entrepreneur and artist.

Zwölf Jahre dauerte die schöpferische Pause der unbestrittenen Königin des prähistorischen Romans -- doch jetzt können alle Fans aufatmen: Der fünfte Band aus der Reihe der Ayla-Romane ist endlich erschienen. Nahtlos setzt Auel die Geschichte von Ayla und das Tal der Großen Mutter fort und erzählt, wie die Steinzeit-Heldin am Ende ihrer langen Reise quer durch Europa in der Heimat ihres Gefährten Jondalar aufgenommen wird.
Ayla ist eine Angehörige der Cro-Magnon-Menschen, die dem heutigen Homo sapiens schon sehr ähnlich waren, aber die Welt vor 30.000 Jahren noch mit den Neandertalern teilten. In Ayla und der Clan des Bären wurde die fünfjährige Ayla durch einen Erdrutsch zur Waise und vorbeiziehende Neandertaler nahmen das fremdartige Kind auf. Dieser erste Band bezieht einen Großteil seiner Faszination aus der Konfrontation zweier sehr unterschiedlicher, menschlicher Spezies. Ebenso faszinierend ist der beeindruckend recherchierte Detailreichtum, mit der Auel das prähistorische Europa für ihre Leser zum Leben erweckt.
Dem fünften Band kann man dasselbe vorwerfen wie auch schon früheren Bänden: Allzu verliebt ist die Autorin in ihre Heldin, die sich nach ihrer schweren Kindheit jetzt der verzückten Bewunderung ihrer Freunde allzeit sicher sein kann. Darüber hinaus verliert sich Auel oft in detaillierten Beschreibungen und Wiederholungen und vernachlässigt dabei die eigentliche Handlung. Doch ungebrochen ist die Faszination, die Auels Reise in die Urzeit auf uns ausübt: Ayla steht für den Einfallsreichtum und Überlebenswillen unserer Vorfahren, für den Anbeginn der menschlichen Zivilisation.
Nicht zuletzt werden Auels Romane auch als Liebegeschichte geschätzt, die nicht mit Einzelheiten aus dem Intimleben ihrer Titelheldin geizt. Und nach vielen scharfsinnigen Überlegungen der Steinzeit-Medizinerin, wo denn eigentlich die Babies herkommen, können sich alle Fans auf ein ganz besonderes Highlight im fünften Band freuen. --Birgit Will [via]

Au cours de leur périple, Ayla et son compagnon Jondalar font la connaissance des Mamutoï, un peuple de chasseurs de mammouths. Grâce à ses talents de guérisseuse, mais aussi à son étonnante familiarité avec les animaux, la jeune Cro-Magnon gagne rapidement la confiance et ladmiration de la tribu, qui accueille le couple avec chaleur.
La situation se complique cependant lorsque Ranec, un artiste du clan, invite Ayla à venir admirer les statuettes en ivoire quil a sculptées pour honorer la « Grande Mère », figure suprême de la religion des Mamutoï. Enfant noir adopté par les Mamutoï, Ranec est un séducteur né, et est loin de laisser Ayla indifférente. Dévoré par une jalousie féroce, un sentiment considéré comme un vice ignoble, Jondalar sombre peu à peu dans le désespoir.

Dans ce cinquième volet de la saga préhistorique « Les Enfants de la Terre », Ayla donne naissance à un enfant très attendu et prend conscience du rôle qu'elle est appelée à jouer dans la destinée des Zelandonii, la tribu de Jondalar. Après un long voyage épique à travers l'Europe, Ayla et Jondalar arrivent à l'emplacement de la Neuvième Caverne, un camp de l'âge de pierre situé dans ce qu'on appellera bien plus tard le Périgord. C'est là que Jondalar retrouve la tribu qui l'a vu naître, et qui se réjouit de son retour. L'accueil fait à Ayla est plus mitigé. Cette femme parle avec un accent curieux et, surtout, elle est suivie par un loup et deux chevaux sur lesquels elle exerce un pouvoir troublant. Mais, si la jeune femme étonne les Zelandonii, ceux-ci la surprennent tout autant par leur façon de vivre dans leurs confortables abris-sous-roche et par la splendeur des peintures dont ils ornent leurs grottes. Plongée dans cet univers étranger, Ayla parviendra-t-elle à gagner la confiance des membres de la tribu de Jondalar ? [via]
