Interactive fiction, often abbreviated IF, describes software simulating environments in which players use text commands to control characters and influence the environment. Works in this form can be understood as literary narratives and as video games. In common usage, the term refers to text adventures, a type of adventure game where the entire interface is text only. The term is sometimes used to encompass the entirety of the medium, but is also sometimes used to distinguish games produced by the interactive fiction community from those created by games companies. citation needed] It can also be used to distinguish the more modern style of such works, focusing on narrative and not necessarily falling into the adventure game genre at all, from the more traditional focus on puzzles. More expansive definitions of interactive fiction may refer to all adventure games, including wholly graphical adventures such as Myst. As a commercial product, interactive fiction reached its peak in popularity from 19791986, as a dominant software product marketed for home computers.

The Adventure of the Real


The Adventure of the Real


$30


Though relatively unsung in the English-speaking world, Jean Rouch (1917–2004) was a towering figure of ethnographic cinema. Over the course of a fifty-year career, he completed over one hundred films, both documentary and fiction, and exerted an influence far beyond academia. Exhaustively researched yet elegantly written, The Adventure of the Real is the first comprehensive analysis of his practical filmmaking methods.   Rouch developed these methods while conducting anthropological research in West Africa in the 1940s–1950s. His innovative use of unscripted improvisation by his subjects had a profound impact on the French New Wave, Paul Henley reveals, while his documentary work launched the genre of cinema-vérité . In addition to tracking Rouch’s pioneering career, Henley examines the technical strategies, aesthetic considerations, and ethical positions that contribute to Rouch’s cinematographic legacy. Featuring over one hundred and fifty images, The Adventure of the Real is an essential introduction to Rouch’s work.

Fiction Sets You Free


Fiction Sets You Free


$29.95


In what can only be called a genuine intellectual adventure, Russell Berman raises fundamental questions long ignored by literary scholars; Why does literature command our attention at all? Why would society want to cultivate a sphere of activity devoted to the careful study of literary fiction? Written as a tonic to what he calls the debilitating cultural relativism of contemporary literary studies, Fiction Sets You Free advances the innovative argument that literature and capitalism, rather than representing merely commercialization, actually belie a long and positive association: literary autonomy is a central part of modern Western culture, thoroughly intertwined with political democracy and free market capitalism.

Khartoum: The Ultimate Imperial Adventure


Khartoum: The Ultimate Imperial Adventure


$87.69


The British campaign in the Sudan in Queen Victoria’s reign is an epic tale of adventure more thrilling than any fiction. The story begins with the massacre of the 11,000 strong Hicks Pasha column in 1883. Sent to evacuate the country, British hero General Gordon was surrounded and murdered in Khartoum by an army of dervishes led by the Mahdi. The relief mission arrived 2 days too late. The result was a national scandal that shocked the Queen and led to the fall of the British government. Twelve years later it was the brilliant Herbert Kitchener who struck back. Achieving the impossible he built a railway across the desert to transport his troops to the final devastating confrontation at Omdurman in 1898. Desert explorer and author Michael Asher has reconstructed this classic tale in vivid detail. Having covered every inch of the ground and examined all eyewitness reports, he brings to bear new evidence questioning several accepted aspects of the story. The result is an account that sheds new light on the most riveting tale of honour, courage, revenge and savagery of late Victorian times.

The Age of Adventure by Achar, Deeptha [Paperback]


The Age of Adventure by Achar, Deeptha [Paperback]


$144.98


The central premise of this book is that childrens reading was and continues to be critical to the shaping of a childs subjectivity. Drawing on the work of Foucault and Said, the book offers an incisive account of the rise of childrens reading in Britain and its implications for the working class movement in the nineteenth century. It analyzes nineteenth century adventure fiction for boys to show how structurally complicit genres such as anthropological, missionary and travel writing shaped the idea of Africa in these novels. Analyzing the novels of G. A. Henty and H. Rider Haggard in particular, the book argues that Africa and Africans structured the movement of adventure in a way that entrenched the working class boy in the imperial project. Using the categories set up for the analysis of adventure fiction, the conclusion offers a reading of Gandhis Satyagraha in South Africa to establish that Indian manhood, like the adulthood of the British boy, is predicated on an unequal relationship with the African. This book will be valuable to those interested in Childrens Literature, Colonial Discourse and African Studies from a Cultural Studies perspective.

The Science Fiction of Edgar Allan Poe


The Science Fiction of Edgar Allan Poe


$10.99


One of the greatest of all horror writers, Edgar Allan Poe (1809-49) also composed pioneering tales that seized upon the scientific developments of an era marked by staggering change. In this collection of sixteen stories, he explores such wide-ranging contemporary themes as galvanism, time travel and resurrection of the dead. ‘The Unparalleled Adventure of One Hans Pfall’ relates a man’s balloon journey to the moon with a combination of scientific precision and astonishing fantasy. Elsewhere, the boundaries between horror and science are elegantly blurred in stories such as ‘The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar’, while the great essay ‘Eureka’ outlines Poe’s own interpretation of the universe. Powerfully influential on later authors including Jules Verne, these works are essential reading for anyone wishing to trace the genealogy of science fiction, or to understand the complexity of Poe’s own creative vision

Types of Fiction with Multiple Endings


Types of Fiction with Multiple Endings


$73.28


High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Multiple endings refer to a case in entertainment (usually video games) where the story could end in different ways, described as an alternate ending. Since multiple endings usually require audience participation, books are able to capture the concept better than movies or television. However, for the sake of telling a story, this device is rarely used. The best examples are the popular 1980s childrens Choose Your Own Adventure series and Heather McElhattons bestselling novels Pretty Little Mistakes and Million Little Mistakes. In both books the protagonist is you, the reader and youre given choices that lead to multiple outcomes. The Charles Dickens 1860 novel Great Expectations underwent a change in ending just before publication. Modern editions often print both versions. (However, this situation is more akin to an alternate ending.) However, perhaps the first true multipleending novel was Hopscotch by Julio Cortzar in 1963.

Ice Queen: A Franklin Adventure


Ice Queen: A Franklin Adventure


$24.65


Ice Queen is an archeological adventure with a few surprising twists. Helen and Philip Franklin are world renowned for their uncanny ability to separate fact from fiction. Theories abound as to how, but no one knows the truth. As a graduate student in Egypt, Helen had her first vision of the past and has been able to draw on that talent ever since. Thomas Coswell, one of the richest men in the world is a champion of the archeological world. A three thousand year old image of a Chinese woman is remarkably like one found in his grandfathers possessions. He hires the Franklins to find out who she was and what his grandfather was doing with a similar picture. A picture his grandfather had drawn at a Peruvian site before his murder. As they follow clues from China to the South Pacific and finally to Peru, the Ice Queen eludes Helens visions. As they dig deeper, the Franklins begin to question if what they are searching for was ever a real person. Justin Smythe was a promising archeologist when he chose the path of blackmarketer instead. Constantly in competition with Thomas Coswell, Smythe loves nothing more than to steal an item away. With the Franklins involved, he realizes that this item could be priceless. And Smythe is not above murdering for what he wants. In an underground city, beneath an ancient Chavin site, the true nature of the Ice Queen is revealed. A life form unlike anything else, the Ice Queen increases a humans abilities, physical as well as mental. With the right person, great things can be accomplished. In the wrong hands, that power would be terrifying. A final battle would determine who controlled the future. Author: Lucas, Richard S.

Planets Of Adventure #3


Planets Of Adventure #3


$4.99


Space Opera at Its Finest! That’s how readers in the know described the late, lamented pulp science fiction magazine Planet Stories. Famed for its vigorous, colorful covers and even more vigorous, colorful lead novels, the magazine of “strange adventures on other worlds and the universe of future centuries” (as the masthead read), has become a rare and highly-prized item among collectors. But now you can read two of its enthralling “book-length novels” in one ebook. If you love Star Trek, Star Wars, and other television and motion picture space operas, you will thrill to Nebula Nominee Ross Rocklynne’s exciting blend of pulse pounding adventure and hard science, “Captives of the Weir-Wind.” Ruthless space pirate, Julian Darnay, finds himself in the power of Julie Gunndardsen, being swept on a terror-flight through the void by a woman who knows how to hold her trumps. Their objective–if they live to reach it–is was a world beyond all worlds … the planet of a binary where strange physics create the howling weir-winds that can sweep a man clean of sins or rip him to shreds in an instant, with only a lake of radium to mark his grave. And Darnay shudders, wondering which the weir-wind will make him, if he lives, sniveling saint or glowing corpse? Then travel through the dimensions with crippled Eldon Carmichael who is catapulted to a world of magical science and scientific magic, where he is the legendary El-ve-don fated to face Sin, raven-tressed witch of evil, in Erik Fennel’s classic “Black Priestess of Varda.” Sin is well-named–foul sorceress and raving beauty–and beloved of Sasso, the Dark Power from another dimension who seeks to conquer, with her help, the lovely, innocent world of Varda. Outlawed, sentenced to the Vat, only a few of Varda’s people still defy foul Sasso’s lovely witch. And Sasso’s only fear is a whispered legend–El-ve-don, the Savior … But surely a God can have nothing to fear and Varda nothing to hope for from the crippled idiot who has blundered through a shower of sparks into their time and space. Surely he can not be El-ve-don, the Savior!

A John Henry Moses Adventure


A John Henry Moses Adventure


$7.79


This volume begins the adventures of John Henry Moses. An average, white, middle class, unmarried man who has spent his life looking for happiness and finding comfort instead. One day he is returning from his job of some twelve years, the first ten he enjoyed the last two he did not, when he becomes a part of a tabloid headline. He is CAPTURED, alien abducted. Thus into an environment where he must fight immediately for his survival. Sicken by the transport he set upon by two other captives that have decided that power over others, even if they were powerless to solve their own situation, was better then nothing. Unfortunately for them, Moses was not in the mood to be ruled. It was a bad day to begin with and he was not going to put up with these two, no matter the costs. Not in the best of shape, he knew the fight would have to be short and very nasty. Marquis of Queensberry rules would not be good here. This was a street fight, and the dirtiest one would win. Moses was dirty, and lucky. Battered and bloody, other victims of the two fallen moaning bodies come forward. Moses stands up and scares the hell out of them. They tell him what has happened and ask if they may have justice. Moses does not object. He allows them to punish the fallen to a point that he would later regret. Moses fines out that their captors are aliens of a different color. They have taken the Earthlings for experimentation. To determine their pain threshold, and mental strength. Unfortunately, these aliens are being pursued by others, the very ones that Moses and the other Earthlings represent. Moses does not know it, but his woe is just beginning. I hope you enjoy this first volume. While it is science fiction, anything not on earth is science fiction since earth is the only inhabited planet we know of, it is really a means to send my hero to another world to solve mysteries. While he learns many other things about the human condition all the way, Moses really only wants to go home. With the other ten volumes, we will see if he succeeds.

<B><I>A Burning in Homeland</I> is<P>…a wonderfully written, crazily romantic story of intense love and devastating betrayal<P>…a stunning debut of a remarkably gifted young novelist<P>…a Southern novel that captures the beauty, madness and mystery of both place and time.</B><P>In what can only be described as a tour-de-force of passionate atmospheric storytelling, first-time novelist Richard Yancey had created a finely nuanced narrative that resounds with raw, emotional truths — a story about the ominous return to a small town in central Florida of a man once sentenced to prison for defending the honor of the woman he loved, about the woman and her husband who both betrayed him, and about a guileless young boy who gets caught up in their web of love, lies, and deceit.<P>The story of the love between Halley Martin and Mavis Howell is seldom talked about in the tiny town of Homeland, Florida, but in the twenty years since Halley was sent to prison for murdering a rival suitor — the only murder ever in this small, pious town — the story has become legend. To seven-year-old Shiny Parker it has become a mystery, something his parents whisper about. He knows that somehow the pretty wife of the local minister is involved, but it is all too confusing for him to sort out.<P>When the church’s parsonage burns, almost killing the minister, only days before the legendary Halley Martin is due to be released from prison, Shiny senses a connection between the events — as do most residents of the town. But if Haley was still in prison when the house burned, who set the fire…and why?<P>Passionate love, the betrayal of friendship, hidden letters, a suspicious fire, mystery and revenge — all are elements of this complex and deeply involving Southern gothic tale.<P>Alternating among a trio of first person narrators — Shiny, Mavis, and Halley — Richard Yancey has created a lush, epic Southern landscape bursting with larger than life characters and rich atmospherics. <I>A

 A Calculated Risk


A Calculated Risk


$7.99


The Washington Post Book World called Katherine Neville’s bestselling novel The Eight a feminist answer to Raiders of the Lost Ark . Now, Neville remakes the rules of adventure fiction again with a gripping tale of financial intrigue and mesmerizing romance that whirls from the high-power money centers of New York and San Francisco to Paris and a breathtaking Greek island. Verity Banks is the senior woman executive at the Bank of the World, a prestigious financial institution with offices around the globe. Head of Electronic Funds Transfer – and supervisor of some of the bank’s most dedicated computer geniuses – Verity lives and breathes the world of big money. But when her power-hungry boss, Kislick Willingly III, axes her proposal to step up the bank’s computer security, Verity finds herself thinking some remarkably treacherous thoughts. Her plan is simple. She’ll break through automated security and hide some money in a place no one will find it – inside the bank’s own computer system. She’ll then point out to senior management how easy such a theft really is. It’s a perfect caper (and perfectly harmless) until the reappearance of Dr. Zoltan Tor. Tor is the financial wizard who, twelve years earlier, taught his protege Verity everything about technology, commerce, and the fine art of sensual living. Now Tor is back with a challenge: Which of them can steal a billion dollars and invest it to earn thirty million in three months? To tempt her to take such an enormous risk, Tor gives Verity an edge: she can use a computer for her theft, but he cannot… A fascinating insider’s look into the world of high-stakes banking, A Calculated Risk is also an immensely enjoyable thriller of theultimate scam, in which the players jet around the world, team up with bankers and baronesses, and, along the way, discover each other fully for the first time.

 A Darkness Forged in Fire: Book One of the Iron Elves By Chris Evans


A Darkness Forged in Fire: Book One of the Iron Elves By Chris Evans


$9.99


Rejected by their own kind for bearing the mark of the Shadow Monarch, the Iron Elves chose instead to serve with the human armies of the Calahrian Empire, hoping through their dedication and discipline to wipe out the stain of their birth. Their reputation is legendary — until their commander, Konowa Swiftdragon, takes it upon himself — for the best of reasons — to assassinate the Viceroy. Court-martialled and exiled to the forest he despises, his beloved regiment disgraced, dishonoured and disbanded, Konowa finds himself suddenly recalled and ordered to re-form the Iron Elves for one last reconnaissance mission. But the new Iron Elves are not at all the same as they were before, and the mission is a suicidal one, with more at stake than Konowa could possibly have imagined. For the Shadow Monarch and her allies have harnessed destructive forces with the power to tear worlds apart — and those who bear her mark have a destiny greater than they know.<P>So begins an heroic journey in the company of a motley band of misfits, rebels and outcasts, with a central character whose engaging, brilliantly realised blend of cynicism, dry humour, duty and anguish make him unlike any other in fantasy fiction.
