The Silurian, book Seven: The Wounded Bear. A GREAT KING IS A HOSTAGE NOW Arthur has gone missing, and of course, it is up to the Fox to find him, but the rumours are strong that the Saxons have taken the Bear as their hostage with the aid of the Romani Church; that the Bear is more than wounded, but already dead. And in the vacant place where Arthur ruled supreme, his traitor cousin Medraut now begins his campaign to take Arthur's place; to raise the Red Dragon over his own head and declare himself Arthur's heir. But there comes an unexpected enemy standing over both Arthur and Medraut--another son of Lot has arisen in the north, and it is Medraut's challenge to join or defeat him. And always the Fox stands at Arthur's side, where some of their battles this time prove the hardest for both Arthur and Bedwyr to fight: Branca, the Queen of the Picts, is now their enemy and boasting that her army of female warriors will finish the Bear forever.

The Silurian, book Seven: The Snake on the Rise A GREAT KING IS A HOSTAGE NOW Arthur is missing, or lost, gone into the wilds of northern Britain, where the rumours are strong that the Saxons have taken him as their hostage with the aid of the Romani Church; that the Bear is more than wounded, but already dead. And in the vacant place where Arthur ruled supreme, his traitor cousin Medraut now begins his campaign to take Arthur's place; to raise the Red Dragon over his own head and declare himself Arthur's heir. But there comes an unexpected enemy standing over both Arthur and Medraut--another son of Lot has arisen in the north, and it is Medraut's challenge to join or defeat him. And always it is the Fox who seeks for the Bear in the wildlands and the dark heart of pain and torture. If Arthur is already dead, as the rumours claim, as Medraut believes, how will Bedwyr survive?

Secord gives a dazzlingly detailed account of this scientific trench warfare and its social consequences. One ends up with a marvellous feeling for the major taxonomic enterprises in Darwin's younger day: mapping, ordering, conquering 'taming the chaos" of the strata. All of these of course had social and imperial ramifications; and Secord mentions geology's moral appeal (in supporting a divinely-stratified Creation) to a beleaguered elite intent on subduing the lower orders. Originally published in 1986. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Set in the Dark Ages of Post-Roman Britain, The Silurian is the story of King Arthur told in a compelling new voice. A first person narrative, spoken in grim and graphic detail by Arthur's closest friend and foster-brother, Prince Bedwyr, the Fox. A boy of sixteen, taken to his first great conflict, Bedwyr begins his story on the battlefield where Arthur lies missing after having won his first engagement to war against the invading Saxons, Hengist and Horsa. This is the Fifth Century AD, a time of fierce honesty, as Bedwyr's own words speak it, the words of a young warrior who lives his life in the blood, guts, turmoil and love of an age that was both brutal and brilliant.

The Swedish island of Gotland, in the Baltic, has attracted much attention of many geologists. Gotland is built up by a Middle Palaeozoic table-land, with an average height of 20-30 m, but with some higher hills in the inland and with steep cliffs along part of the coast. The Middle Palaeozoic strata consist primarily of limestones and marlstones. For a good understanding of the sedimentary succession of Gotland, it is important that the distribution of all the different kinds of sediments should be carefully mapped, and their faunal contents to be intensively studied. This book includes the survey and ideas gathered along with important data about the stratigraphy and reefs of Gotland. It presents description of the Baltic area, development of the stratigraphical subdivision of the Middle Palaeozoic of Gotland, and some tectonic and pseudo-tectonic phenomena. Stratified and unstratified sediments are presented along with a number of palaeoecological observations on Gotlandian fossils. Some comparisons of the reefs of Gotland with reefs in a few other areas are also examined.

A YOUNG WARLORD ARISES Arthur, at age fifteen, has won a great battle between British and Saxon forces, seizing the day from his own supreme commander, Ambrosius Aurelianus. This his first battle win inspires the young Arthur to begin his rise to take full control of Britain's armies with the aid of his first cousin, Medraut, the son of Lot, Uthyr's Pendragon's younger brother. Yet Arthur's rise becomes Bedwyr's greatest challenge: Prince Bedwyr, called the Fox, and Arthur's foster-brother, is the narrator of 'The Silurian' series, and it is through his eyes, through his power and passion, that the great saga of Arthur's life in seen and told. Yet life with the charismatic Arthur is not always easy for the Fox-for Arthur is a challenge in himself. And when Arthur's power rises, Bedwyr's life begins a downward slide into rebellion, and he leaves on a lone path of confusion to fight his inner demons, to find who he really is as his great friend and foster-brother rises higher and higher-high enough for the young Arthur to face his own father, Uthyr, in battle for the right to fly the Red Dragon banner of the Pendragon Warlords. Arthur's battles will one day make Bedwyr the Fox a hero, if only he can stand firm as Arthur's first man, his shield-bearer and brother-in-arms; stand to tell the tale of The Silurian in his own passionate words.

The Silurian Tales Volume 1 The 400-Million-Year Itch, Volume 1 of The Silurian Tales, represents the first volume of a master work by one of the SF genre's greatest short story writers. The stories in Steven Utley's Silurian Tales have appeared in Asimov's, Analog, SciFiction, F&SF, and Cosmos, and have been beguiling readers with glimpses of prehistoric life since the mid-1990s. These tales have been described by Brian Stableford in Science Fact and Science Fiction: An Encyclopedia as " t]he most elaborate reconstruction of a past era in recent speculative fiction." The series employs a variety of literary techniques in recounting the adventures and misadventures of a scientific expedition in the Paleozoic Era and also address some implications of the "many-worlds" hypothesis in quantum physics; several of the stories have been reprinted in Gardner Dozois' Year's Best Science Fiction anthologies and the Year's Best SF edited by David G. Hartwell and Kathryn Cramer.
