Explorers discover the dark secrets behind a town that disappeared without a trace in Abandon, a standalone thriller from Blake Crouch - the New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter and Recursion
AWARDED THE ANDERSON MEDAL 2021This fascinating title offers a new study of the loss of six British ships and an Argentinian cruiser during the Falklands War of 1982.When Argentinian forces invaded the Falklands in April 1982, the British government responded by despatching a task force to the Atlantic to wrest back control of the islands. The resulting war saw modern weapon systems tested in combat for the first time, to tragic effect. In the aftermath, official documents were released, but many were heavily censored, and others withheld altogether, so that a full understanding of those events could not be gained.Drawing from recently declassified and previously unpublished reports from the official inquiry, Dr Paul Brown details the true story behind the dramatic events that led to the loss of six British ships – HMS Antelope, Ardent, Coventry and Sheffield, RFA Sir Galahad and SS Atlantic Conveyor – as well as the controversial sinking of the Argentinian cruiser ARA General Belgrano by HMS Conqueror.
"Abandon the Old in Tokyo "continues to delve into the urban underbelly of 1960s Tokyo, exposing not only the seedy dealings of the Japanese everyman but Yoshihiro Tatsumi's maturation as a storyteller. Many of the stories deal with the economic hardships of the time and the strained relationships between men and women, but do so by means of dark allegorical twists and turns. A young sewer cleaner's girlfriend has a miscarriage and leaves him when he proves incapable of finding higher-paying work. When a factory worker loses his hand on the job, the parallels between him and his pet monkey prove startling and significant.
"HE DID ALL THAT...FOR ME?” The empire is in full festival mode. But for Aristia, the ballroom is yet another battlefield and every dance step a desperate riposte. Princesses from neighboring kingdoms are here, and they have one goal--to take her place by Ruveliss’s side! To that end, they are willing to use every dirty trick in the book to humiliate Tia and turn the prince against her. But as she begins to falter under constant pressure, unexpected allies come to her aid...
"DID YOU ENJOY YOUR TIME IN THIS WORLD WITHOUT ME?"The moment Aristia was dreading is finally here--Jieun has arrived! As politics pit the two against each other yet again, she soon realizes that this Jieun is very different from the one she remembers . In order to protect herself and those dear to her, Tia hardens her resolve to walk the path of heir to House Monique ...until long-kept secrets are brought to light , calling her legitimacy as crown princess candidate into question! While the noble faction plans their next move with an openly hostile Jieun as their new pawn, Tia is reminded that within the palace, there is no room for mercy.
After six long years, Tia's goal of becoming an official knight finally comes true. And as an official knight, she now has the ability to make a "Blood Oath" to the emperor-and in doing so, surrender her right to the throne. Despite the crown prince's continued attempts to thaw her frozen heart, Tia is determined to free herself from the noble faction's schemes and the grim fate she's desperately tried to flee from...but that resolve is soon shaken when she finds Ruveliss in danger. Will Tia allow Fate to shape her future? Or will she finally take her destiny into her own hands?
"I HOPE SHE, AT LEAST, WILL BE FREE.”As the newly appointed assistant officer to the commander of the First Order of Knights, Aristia is one step closer to becoming the heir of House Monique. But fighting against destiny is never easy, and a run-in with Ruveliss on the anniversary of her mother’s death makes it clear that the bonds that tie them together run deeper than Tia ever knew. And though her path to knighthood is finally secure, Tia must now face another battle field: high society!
"IT WAS THE SOUND OF THE GODS SCOFFING AT ME." Thanks to Ruveliss's decisive actions, the foreign princesses' schemes are thwarted, but this was merely a prelude to the oncoming turmoil. With the emperor's health waning, political machinations at the court intensify...and at the center of it all stands Aristia. To make matters worse, Carsein suffers a grave injury while protecting her from mysterious assassins, and the shadow inside Allendis's heart continues to grow. With crisis after crisis erupting all around her, Tia finds herself relying more and more on Ruveliss for support. ...All the while, the cogs of fate spin ever forward, indifferent to the struggles of mortals--until the gears click into place at the destined hour...Jieun has arrived.
An astonishing memoir of military courage at a remote outpost during the Vietnam War "A riveting, dead-true account in the tradition of Black Hawk Down and We Were Soldiers Once...and Young."--Steven Pressfield, national bestselling
While his crew is resting at the pool, pilot and photographer Henk van Rensbergen explores deserted city palaces, overgrown factories or desolate areas of nature, finding beauty in the decay. This engaging book of photographs, a revised edition with new material, lets us wander through abandoned places, including Abkhazia, a break-away region bordering Georgia and Russia and the newest must-visit for every urban explorer.
With striking color photographs exploring 100 areas, Abandoned Towns is a fascinating visual history of the mysteries of lost worlds. Gold rush towns abandoned when new boomtowns emerge elsewhere or the gold has run out, towns deserted when caught in war zones, settlements evacuated due to natural disasters or chemical spills—seeing a town devoid of people is an uncanny feeling. Where has everyone gone? And why aren’t they coming back? From Pripyat in Ukraine to Bodie in California to English villages requisitioned by the Ministry of Defence during World War II, from Greek leper colonies to deserted Italian mountain villages, Abandoned Towns is a brilliant pictorial work examining lost worlds. With reasons ranging from the collapse of local industry to being pushed aside to make way for a new industry, from earthquakes and volcanoes to man-made chemical spills, from war zones to demilitarized zones, the book explores a wide range of desolate urban environments from around the globe. And with these places left to nature, we can not only see how nature reclaims the land, but also gain a glimpse into the past free from humankind’s modernizing hands.
Mysterious ghost stations forgotten beneath the cities of Paris and London; desolate grand rail hubs in the Pyrenée mountains; metro stations in China that terminate in a wasteland: Abandoned Train Stations looks at some of the thousands of disused station buildings, platforms, lines, tunnels, and rail yards left behind by modernity. Organized by continent, this book takes the reader to every corner of the globe. Explore Canfranc International Railway Station, once a busy mountain hub of international travel between France and Spain. See the eerily empty platform at Kings Cross Thameslink, London, today a service tunnel following the station's closure in the early 2000s. Examine the grandiose Michigan Central Train Station in Detroit, an historic Amtrak rail depot, and once the tallest rail station in the world. Marvel at the dusty, overgrown shell of Abkhazia's once-beautiful railway station in Psyrtskha, a physical legacy of the former Soviet era in the Caucasus. Abandoned Train Stations provides a fascinating pictorial journey through the little-known remnants of rail transport infrastructure from every part of the world.
Relics of the Soviet conquest of space, Moscow Pioneer camps, remnants of propaganda along a journey sparsely dotted with statues of Stalin or Lenin, from traditional Moldovan houses to ghosts of the Caucasian wars, by way of petro-chemical factories in the Donbass ...This report invites the reader to relive, through its striking pictures, more than ahundred years of history, from the beginnings of the Soviet period to the legacy of acommunist era now fast fading from memory.Terence Abela has spent nine years travelling across the former USSR unearthing fragments from its past. His love of history, of photographing relics of the past and discovering the unknown, have combined to create this work. Driven by a desire to preserve the heritage abandoned by states that lurch between the threat of nationalism, dictatorship, wars and the will to invent a new history for themselves, he appeals to us through his pictures to protect these mementos which are at risk of disappearing in the not too distant future.
A moving reflection on the author's father - plus a cat! - this is a beautiful short work of family history from one of our most beloved, iconic writers. Originally published in the New Yorker in 2019, and now presented in a full, unabridged form, Abandoning a Cat is a poignant, self-reflective work by Haruki Murakami. Here he writes about his father, the son of a priest who might have become a priest himself had a clerical error not sent him into the second world war. Murakami's father wrote accomplished haiku and eventually became a teacher. As Haruki grew older and became an adult and then a writer, he and his father found they had little in common. They were later estranged for twenty years, only reconciling on his father's deathbed. This haunting personal essay is a reflection on what it means to be a father and what it means to be a son - on what it means to be loved and to be abandoned - and also on a particular moment of Japanese history, through the aftermath of the second world war on into the present. Murakami fans may find common themes from beloved novels such as Kafka on the Shore and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle - but will also be surprised by the raw honesty of this beautiful autobiographical piece.
