1590 B.C: Rahotep is more than a simple captain of the Nubian Desert Scouts. He is heir to the Nome of the Striking Hawk, which for over a generation has been under the harsh rule of the Hyksos. Accused of a crime he didn't commit and driven out of Nubia by the ascension of his scheming half-brother to the throne of Viceroy, Rahotep flees north to Thebes, accompanied only by a loyal band of Nubian archers. Here he takes refuge in the court of the Pharaoh Sekenenre III, who is determined to free Egypt. Treachery, this time at the hands of murderous and power-hunger priests, throws Rahotep into a cell, deep beneath the Temple of Anubis. He must escape, not only to prove his innocence, but also to join in a mission and battle upon which hang the freedom of Egypt from the rule of the invaders.

God and the Embryo by Brent Waters, ISBN 087840998X
Discussions and debates over the medical use of stem cells and cloning have always had a religious component. But there are many different religious voices. This anthology on how religious perspectives can inform the difficult issues of stem cell research and human cloning is essential to the discussion. Contributors reflect the spectrum of Christian responses, from liberal Protestant to evangelical to Roman Catholic. The noted moral philosopher Laurie Zoloth offers a Jewish approach to cloning, and Sondra Wheeler contributes her perspective on both Jewish and Christian understandings of embryonic stem cell research. In addition to the discussions found here, "God and the Embryo includes a series of official statements on stem cell research and cloning from religious bodies, including the Roman Catholic Church, the Orthodox Church in America, the United Methodist Church, the Southern Baptist Convention, the United Church of Christ, the Presbyterian Church (USA), and the Union of Orthodox...

Akiko and the Journey to Toog by Mark Crilley, ISBN 038573042X
"Poog's in trouble." Just three simple words, but they're enough to launch fifth-grade Akiko and the rest of her crew--Spuckler Boach, Mr. Beeba, and Gax--on their next mission. And it just might be their most important mission yet: To save the planet Toog, home of their good friend Poog.
Someone's out to destroy Toog, and only Akiko and the gang can stop them. But first they have to escape from a Toogolian jail cell, zoom through a barrage of exploding drobe mines, and enlist the help of Spuckler's old friend Fluggly Ragstubble--who's anything but helpful. The clock is ticking and every second counts.
