THE PROPHECY UNRAVELS IN THE SEQUEL TO C. HIGGINS' GLOBALLY BESTSELLING EPIC FANTASY NOVEL "First Crown: Tears of Fire delivers everything that Malice of Snow brought to the table, to a new level, and is perhaps better than it’s predecessor. The author turns a plot that could easily be considered over-used or common, and turns it into something that only he could imagine. The detail is extraordinary and the kingdom of Askaria becomes more full and lore-abundant with every book." - Zander Kelly, Writer's Times In a land ravaged by virulent disease and merciless cold, where blood has stained the snow red and a great curse, the Malice of Snow has come to pass - amidst the aftermath, the frost melting, a new nightmare threatens Askaria... A foreign king makes his way to the First Crown and an ancient cult carves their way to the last descendants of a forgotten clan, intending to avenge a broken promise and resurrect the first dragon, son of a deity, Alyrias. Borgian Steel seems to be Askaria's only hope once again and must unravel the intentions of the cult and the darkness behind the new king, meanwhile an unlikely alliance is formed between Mazdol and the clans of the west and north to defeat the oncoming disaster of the Missionaries. Askaria has been forced into darkness once again and total war seems likely, as Zensi's prophecy progresses to bear only truths... The Tears of Fire shall rain. Death is assured.

Excerpt from The Temperature Coefficient of the Weight of a Falling Drop as a Means of Estimating the Molecular Weight and the Critical Temperature of a Liquid: Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, in the Faculty of Pure Science in Columbia University in the City of New YorkIn a recent paper,1 it was shown that the weight of a drop of liquid falling from a properly constructed tip is proportional for any one diameter of tip, to the surface tension of the liquid; and, further, that when falling drop weights are substituted for surface tensions as measured by capillary rise in the formula of eotvos, as modified and presented in two forms by Ramsay and Shields, the molecular weights and critical temperatures of liquids can be calculated with an accuracy equal to that attained by the use of the surface tensions found from the capillary rise.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
