The Lost Kings

The Lost Kings: London, . Mild-mannered watchmaker Cyril King harbours a secret wish to be an explorer. When he acquires a mysterious timepiece from a notorious criminal, Cyril gets his heart's desire, the clues he finds propelling him halfway around the world on the trail of a fabulous treasure. On the borders of India and Afghanistan, Cyril meets a real-life adventurer who seems to be everything he aspires to. But high in the Karakoram mountains there are lessons to be learned, as nothing is quite what Cyril expects: neither the treasure, nor his companion, nor the life of discovery and excitement which he imagined -- and certainly not the deadly peril into which he stumbles with all the insouciance of the innocent abroad. Meanwhile, intercut with Cyril's account of his adventures are the letters of famous explorer Sir Paul Linley-Small, written to Cyril from various points of the compass fifteen years later, as Small pursues a rare, perhaps mythical, creature. And as Small's tale grows ever more fantastic, the way in which the two narratives link with one another reflects on the nature of truth and the lives which we envisage for ourselves.

J*DaVeY - The Beauty in Dostortion/The Land of The Lost

Personnel: Georgia Anne Muldrow (vocals). Recording information: The Temple Bar. Although they've been known to refer to themselves as the black Eurythmics,the music of duo J*Davey is difficult to categorize. The new wave influence is clear,but trackmaker Brook D'Leau and singer Jack Davey also draw heavily on urban contemporary,hip-hop,indie rock,funk,and psychedelia. The musical mix is idiosyncratic and refreshing,as are D'Leau's alternately layered and driving productions and Davey's unique,nas

The Lost Men: The Harrowing Saga of Shackleton's Ross Sea

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Tyler-Lewis, Kelly, PUBLISHER: Viking Books, The excruciating tale of the Ross Sea party, the other side of Shackletons "Endurance" expedition In , Sir Ernest Shackleton sailed south aboard the "Endurance" to make history by crossing the Antarctic continent. Shackletons story is legend, but few know the harrowing story of the Ross Sea party, Shackletons support group dispatched to the other side of the continent to build a lifeline of food and fuel depots to bear his crossing. I had not anticipated that the work would present any great difficulties, Shackleton wrote. Yet everything went tragically wrong when the Ross Sea ship, the "Aurora", tore free of her moorings and disappeared in a gale, leaving ten men marooned with only the clothes on their backs and few provisions. With little hope of rescue from a world embroiled in World War I, the men decided to accomplish their mission against all odds. Long overshadowed by the mission these men bargained their lives to sustain, this heartrending story of survival against all odds now gets its due in this definitive, surprising account of the final journey of the heroic age of polar expedition.
