  • When the Sun Dies

    Roy A. Gallant

    Hardcover (Marshall Cavendish Corp/Ccb, Oct. 1, 1998)
    Warning: Unauthorized people are not encouraged to read this book! How do you know if you're authorized? Are you interested in how and when the planet Earth is scheduled to be burned to a crisp? Do you care about Earth's climatic tortures? Do you think it's cool that some stars have hiccups and others blow cosmic bubbles? Then join acclaimed scientist and author Roy Gallant on this spectacular journey through time and outer space--and discover some remarkable facts about Earth's "local" star and the effect it has on this planet's future. The sun has been shining for almost 5 billion years, and is about halfway through its life span. But what will happen when, and if, the sun dramatically changes its lifestyle? By recounting past theories and meshing them with present-day technology and discoveries, the author delivers an in-depth probing of the sun, the stars, and the planets. He ventures into the past to identify early astronomers' views and theories, and clarifies how today's scientists spend endless hours observing and attempting to decipher the bewildering solar system. And, though the sun's long-term future may result exactly as predicted, Gallant explores the remote, but not unbelievable, notions that Earth's latter-day species may abandon the doomed planet and colonize a habitable one. Until that happens, authorize yourself to discover the incredible story of the solar connection in this detailed, informative, and entertaining investigation.

A medieval world of dragons, wizards and wizards and of course knights. Did I mention talking dragons? And one dragon in particular that bonds with Marcus which is unheard of in this land. A wonderful series of great and unpredictable adventure.From best selling author A. J. Gallant "of Knights and Wizards"FIVE STARSWizards, Dragons, True Fantasy!By Dii TOP 500 REVIEWER "Knights of the Dragon by A. j. Gallant is another of his “guided tours” into a land full of fantasy, magic, dragons and knights from long ago. Often humorous, sometimes sweet, this adventure will carry its reader off into another land and another time. Marcus is a delightfully caring character, still fumbling through his youth. His perseverance to control his magic is actually quite admirable and the bravery he shows, remarkable."
