1. The critical thinking skills of human beings
2. Our relationship to natural environments.
3. The physical and mental health of human beings.
4. The knowledge/power balance in a democratic society.
(not in that order)
1. Not a simple read. This book is probably organized too well. Mander coherently and methodically plumbs through each argument and sub argument with no regard for the lazy or quick fix reader. His adherence to his own structure is relentless. The payoff is cumulative as the book gathers momentum. Clear but tedious.
2. This book is pretty depressing. For me the resulting sobriety was worth the cold shower, but perhaps not for everyone. Only the most determined of readers will be able to reject all of ideas presented in this book, and unfortunately this book offers a bleak but well painted picture of our predicament. Blue pill enthusiasts beware.
1. This book asks important and obvious questions(You'll say "yeah that is a good question!, why didn't I think of that?) about how man made technologies and environments are affecting us. They are questions that most of us would agree need to be answered, yet amazingly, few if any of which have been adequately answered to this day. (The book was written in the 70's)
2. This book is both spell binding and spell breaking. Mander reaches into the silent, unsure parts of our minds that we have become experts at ignoring.Read more ›
Just scan the table of contents to Mander's book, ..., and you will begin to see the array of influences these forces have in our culture and in our individual minds.
Please buy the book, give it to everyone as gifts this year, ***especially to parents of small children***. I see parents use the TV as a pacifier, but as you will read, it is an incredibly high price to pay just to keep the kids temporarily quiet.
However, TV has become a central part of the American lifestyle, and it would be hard, if not impossible, to get rid of. But I definitely feel the truth of his arguments. When I was in India, much of the time at my host family's place, they would sit around watching television while doing chores. It felt empty somehow. Where was the richness of the culture? Here I am in India, and I'm sitting here watching a stupid Hindi movie instad of interacting in a meaningful way. And when I came back home, I felt the shock of the media doubly. Everything on TV looked slick, fake, contrived, absolutely ridiculous. We have been so inoculated to all of this by now that it's hard to see unless you go away and come back again.
It's tough to break any sort of addiction, and I think television is an addiction. It is part of the problem of a society that always looks for the next best thing, that promotes the loudest, noisiest, most violent thing, that can't sit still for half an hour to soak in the beauty of quiet stillness.
In some ways, this book is hard to read. It's easy to grasp but it's difficult to take this kind of attack on such a commonly accepted lifestyle even though you know it's wrong. Plus it's a lot of information coming at you at once; I had to digest it in little bits and pieces to give it time to sink in.

Skip to comments.WE LIVE IN A WORLD GONE MAD (What the heck is happening with those who are defending this country?)
Posted on 11/13/2012 7:40:33 AM PST by SeekAndFind
click here to read article
wow.. human nature..who'd a thunk.. the difference is, thanks to American's appetite for this crap, now we hear about it, 24/7.
And isn't it convenient that all these higher ups are now so completely discredited, that they won't be believed...and are now busy "putting their lives together" that they can't testify?
They will all testify in a couple of years, when the whole thing is forgotten and the press has moved on.
I think someone in this adminisration is releasing this information to the media to bring the military hierarchy down ...
Well, I think what we are witnessing is the simultaneous suicide ad murder of a once great nation by awful, awful people.
And there isn't going to be any stopping it.
We're so screwed........
I think part of the problem with our military is this long protracted nation building BS. Troops are going for multiple tours and families are being torn apart. They are away from their families over and over and sit in a backwards miserable land. Structure in all forms is breaking down.
Sure seems as though Kelley has been playing the role of femme fatale to a number of men in positions of authority. Maybe she's just cursed with a come-hither projection, or maybe she really enjoys the attention.
Just an observation, not a condemnation.
Is there not a part of the Alinsky plan to discredit and dismantle the military?
"I think someone in this adminisration is releasing this information to the media to bring the military hierarchy down ..."
I think you're right, since zero is considering the appointment of J.F.Kerry to the Sec of Defense position. Very troubling.
I think we're finally realising that everyone is pretty much the same, even those we think should be above certain behaviors.
Er...let me guess. Something other than romance?
Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.
We have a degraded culture. Affairs, sex and perversion have always occurred with people of power, but at least everyone paid respect to the idea of moral behavior.
Now, respect for propriety hasn't completely disappeared, but it has obviously declined. Furthermore, sex, entertainment and pleasure-is everywhere in our society. Temptation is much greater, so odds are, more people will be caught by it.
I don't want to paint with a broad brush here, but the idea that 'leaders', elected or unelected, are somehow the cream of the crop is just fantasy. Sometimes it's not that the cream that rises to the top, but that s**t floats.
Democrats saved this juicy little story until after the election so that CNN could salivate over sex instead of asking questions about Benghazi that need to be asked.
As far as I'm concerned, the General (and the other one for that matter) can or could screw anyone they want with no more repercussions than Bill Clinton's blow jobs, or the buggering Obama's CINC directives now condones.
"Well, I think what we are witnessing is the simultaneous suicide ad murder of a once great nation by awful, awful people.
And there isnt going to be any stopping it."
Agreed. We had our chance, but it wasn't "pure" enough. So, now we can only watch helplessly as the country is dismantled and remade to Marx' liking.
The only way to fix this whole mess is to attack Iran.
Does anyone watch the show ARMY WIVES? people have affairs.. They've had then since the beginning of time. I am not saying it's right, but why is everyone shocked?
By then way, I am surprised the Clinton Analogy isn't talked about more.

RE: The only way to fix this whole mess is to attack Iran.
Beware the Iranian Femme Fatale posing as an American Journalist...
in reply to the title...all branches of government have become an arm of the left wing...that means loyalty to the left wing of the Democrat party first before loyalty to the USA or its citizens. Party firs comrads.
I believe we are witnessing the beginnings of a culture decaying from within because it has replaced the Judeo-Christian worldview with secular humanism.
Let's look at what America has become and what is coming soon. First, we have killed off ONE-SEVENTH of our population! And we not only acknowledge it but call it a constitutional right. And one of our major political parties is completely beholden to it.
Second, we can no longer say that it is only courts that have redefined marriage. Several legislatures-elected representatives of the people-have done so, with more to follow. The ultimate effect will be destruction of the institution of marriage, the most necessary institution to keep civilization from collapsing. Research the statistics on what happens to children born in a 2 parent nuclear family versus a single mother.
Our current rate of illegitimate births is in excess of 40% and trending upwards. Also, our overall birth rate is declining which is an indicator of a country in decline. So, we have an even greater percentage of children being born outside the family, with the resultant increase in criminal behavior, sexual promiscuity and other social pathologies, and decrease in educational achievement and professional success.
The behavior of Petreaus et al is merely in line with what the culture of America has become.
Now that I've livened up everyone's day, go take on the world.
This is getting more interesting every day.
"I think someone in this adminisration is releasing this information to the media to bring the military hierarchy down ..."
I agree. Cleaning house, and revenge. A coup.Or, as oblahblah would say, "A coupe."
When will guys like this learn? If you don't want the problems, then keep yourself zipped up.
RE: This is getting more interesting every day.
It would be even MORE interesting if secrets were leaked as a result of a GAY relationship. Now that would be DADT also (DO ASK DO TELL ).
My thoughts exactly. This is looking like a purge.
Hmmmmm Wasn't it a sex scandal that put Obama in the U.S. Senate?
Obama knows how to use scandals against his enemies while keeping his own scandal on the "Down Low:.
"Coupe DE VILle"
The Administration is successful in their 'fundamental transformation' of the US. With all the corruption, who would consider this a great nation worthy of sacrifice? How fast this has all changed! I do not recognize this as the nation where I grew up. Shoulda took those 'red baiting' alarms more seriously. You can never go back.
Great and Lovely Idea!
Aint going to happen
Not as long as the MB control the White House, judicial and Military.
I don't doubt Holder never mentioned it to obama. obama is a puppet and is only told what to do and say. He's never asked for an oppinion.
Powerline estimated it would take over a year's worth of time to write 20,000 pages, such that one would have time for nothing else
Our own little Mata Hari. I'm so proud of my country.
And there isnt going to be any stopping it."
This should come as no surprise. Obama & the RATS hate the military & Obama is doing his best to dismantle & degrade it.
When we elect a Commander In Chief - who could not even pass a background check, himself, there is temptation to 'follow the leader'.
Think about it. Is their behavior any worse than what Obama has been doing to our country?
Their behavior is about sex - Obama's behavior is about TREASON.
Since 1998 we've settled. We settled for Bush the Elder. We settled for Dole. We settled for Bush the Younger. We settled for McCain. By the time we had settled for Romney it was too late. They had everything in place to steal the election.
Glad General Allen is on top of things over there. Pathetic !
Things may not be as they appear.
Cheap, slutty-looking women always get a pass.
0bama's purges feature "sex bombshell circuses".
The end result is the same. The patriotic and "unreliable" soldiers are disgraced and removed, the toadies are installed, and absolute power is cemented. Then the gulags start filling.
In a few years we will probably be invading Finland in the winter with brass bands - except in our case it will be Israel...
Having spent some time in the intelligence community, I am reminded of an old saying "Don't believe everything you see in the funny papers" or words to that effect.
Wasn't there a similar situation during the civil war with one lady involved with numerous senior officers? Any historians or civil war buffs here?
Holder's apparent failure to bring this IMMEDIATELY to the Current Occupant of the Oval Office was not an oversight. The information was getting to the real power broker there, Valerie Jarrett, and was also going out the pipeline to David Axelrod, even though he is not "officially" in the White Hut any longer.
It is as though the Chicago Mob were now holding the White Hut as their own fiefdom.
Obama is now largely a figurehead, useful only as a mouthpiece for the Mob, which is why he has to keep the earpiece in and read what is scrolling past him on the Teleprompter.
When Obama goes off-script, the powers behind figuratively start crapping bricks.
Which are useful later, when broken in two and used as ammunition to launch at anyone making an assault from the outside.
That is always in the playbook for those who have dictatorial aspirations, you know. Think Stalin, Castro, Hitler, and many others.

In the last days of high summer, with lightning striking blue in a black sky, the sorcerer stood on a high cliff overlooking the raging sea…
Belting out his grief into the storm, Hoyt Mac Cionaoith rails against the evil that has torn his twin brother from their family's embrace. Her name is Lilith. Existing for thousands of years, she has lured countless men to an immortal doom with her soul-stealing kiss. But now, this woman known as vampire will stop at nothing until she rules this world—and those beyond it…
Hoyt is no match for the dark siren. But his powers come from the goddess Morrigan, and it is through her that he will get his chance at vengeance. At Morrigan's charge, he must gather five others to form a ring of power strong enough to overcome Lilith. A circle of six: himself, the witch, the warrior, the scholar, the one of many forms, and the one he's lost. And it is in this circle, hundreds of years in the future, where Hoyt will learn how strong his spirit—and his heart—have become…
Editorial Reviews
Bestselling author Nora Roberts ventures deep into the world of paranormal and fantasy with an action-packed powerhouse of a book, the first in what promises to be a terrific trilogy. The backstory is the stuff of legend: Lilith the vampire turns Cian, the brother of Hoyt (a sorcerer in 12th-century Ireland), into a bloodsucker like herself. Hoyt is charged by the goddess Morrigan to wage a battle against Lilith, using a very specific team of six -- "the witch, the warrior, the scholar, the one of many forms, and the one you've lost."
The gathering of the team is a strong story in itself, but that's just the beginning. As Hoyt puts together the team, he discovers Glenna, a modern-day witch, and their cross-centuries romance begins, thanks to the marvels of time travel. There are some wonderful moments as they fall in love, with Glenna teaching Hoyt about the role of women in the 21st century and demonstrating the use of appliances. Then there's the decision of where they should live -- and by that we mean, in which century. The evolving relationship between Hoyt and his vampire brother, who joins the team, is also moving. Book One closes with an exciting wedding/battle that sets the stage for the next books, Dance of the Gods and Valley of Silence.
As her fans already know, Nora Roberts can take any subcategory in the field and spin it to new heights. This paranormal fantasy proves the point all over again. Ginger Curwen

Chapter 1
Eire, the region of Chiarrai
There was a storm in him, as black and vicious as that which bullied its way across the sea. It whipped inside his blood, outside in the air, battling within and without as he stood on the rain-slickened rock.
The name of his storm was grief.
It was grief that flashed in his eyes, as bold and as blue as those lightning strikes. And the rage from it spit from his fingertips, jagged red that split the air with thunderclaps that echoed like a thousand cannon shots.
He thrust his staff high, shouted out the words of magic. The red bolts of his rage and the bitter blue of the storm clashed overhead in a war that sent those who could see scurrying into cottage and cave, latching door and window, gathering their children close to quake and quail as they prayed to the gods of their choosing.
And in their raths, even the faeries trembled.
Rock rang, and the water of the sea went black as the mouth of hell, and still he raged, and still he grieved. The rain that poured out of the wounded sky fell red as blood—and sizzled, burning on land, on sea, so that the air smelled of its boiling.
It would be called, ever after, The Night of Sorrows, and those who dared speak of it spoke of the sorcerer who stood tall on the high cliff, with the bloody rain soaking his cloak, running down his lean face like death's tears as he dared both heaven and hell.
His name was Hoyt, and his family the Mac Cionaoith, who were said to be descended from Morrigan, faerie queen and goddess. His power was great, but still young as he was young. He wielded it now with a passion that gave no room to caution, to duty, to light. It was his sword and his lance.
What he called in that terrible storm was death.
While the wind shrieked, he turned, putting his back to the tumultuous sea. What he had called stood on the high ground. She—for she had been a woman once—smiled. Her beauty was impossible, and cold as winter. Her eyes were tenderly blue, her lips pink as rose petals, her skin milk white. When she spoke, her voice was music, a siren's who had already called countless men to their doom.
"You're rash to seek me out. Are you impatient, Mac Cionaoith, for my kiss?"
"You are what killed my brother?"
"Death is . . ." Heedless of the rain, she pushed back her hood. "Complex. You are too young to understand its glories. What I gave him is a gift. Precious and powerful."
"You damned him."
"Oh." She flicked a hand in the air. "Such a small price for eternity. The world is his now, and he takes whatever he wants. He knows more than you can dream of. He's mine now, more than he was ever yours."
"Demon, his blood is on your hands, and by the goddess, I will destroy you."
She laughed, gaily, like a child promised a particular treat. "On my hands, in my throat. As mine is in his. He is like me now, a child of night and shadow. Will you also seek to destroy your own brother? Your twin?"
The ground fog boiled black, folded away like silk as she waded through it. "I smell your power, and your grief, and your wonder. Now, on this place, I offer this gift to you. I will make you once more his twin, Hoyt of the Mac Cionaoiths. I will give you the death that is unending life."
He lowered his staff, stared at her through the curtain of rain. "Give me your name."
She glided over the fog now, her red cloak billowing back. He could see the white swell of her breasts rounding ripely over the tightly laced bodice of her gown. He felt a terrible arousal even as he scented the stench of her power.
"I have so many," she countered, and touched his arm—how had she come so close?—with just the tip of her finger. "Do you want to say my name as we join? To taste it on your lips, as I taste you?"
His throat was dry, burning. Her eyes, blue and tender, were drawing him in, drawing him in to drown. "Aye. I want to know what my brother knows."
She laughed again, but this time there was a throatiness to it. A hunger that was an animal's hunger. And those soft blue eyes began to rim with red. "Jealous?"
She brushed her lips to his, and they were cold, bitter cold. And still, so tempting. His heart began to beat hard and fast in his chest. "I want to see what my brother sees."
He laid his hand on that lovely white breast, and felt nothing stir beneath it. "Give me your name."
She smiled, and now the white of her fangs gleamed against the awful night. "It is Lilith who takes you. It is Lilith who makes you. The power of your blood will mix with mine, and we will rule this world, and all the others."
She threw back her head, poised to strike. With all of his grief, with all of his rage, Hoyt struck at her heart with his staff.
The sound that ripped from her pierced the night, screamed up through the storm and joined it. It wasn't human, not even the howl of a beast. Here was the demon who had taken his brother, who hid her evil behind cold beauty. Who bled, he saw as a stream of blood spilled from the wound, without a heartbeat.
She flew back into the air, twisting, shrieking as lightning tore at the sky. The words he needed to say were lost in his horror as she writhed in the air, and the blood that fell steamed into filthy fog.
"You would dare!" Her voice gurgled with outrage, with pain. "You would use your puny, your pitiful magic on me? I have walked this world a thousand years." She slicked her hand over the wound, threw out her bloody hand.
And when the drops struck Hoyt's arm, they sliced like a knife.
"Lilith! You are cast out! Lilith, you are vanquished from this place. By my blood." He pulled a dagger from beneath his cloak, scored his palm. "By the blood of the gods that runs through it, by the power of my birth, I cast you back—"
What came at him seemed to fly across the ground, and struck with the feral force of fury. Tangled, they crashed over the cliff to the jagged ledge below. Through waves of pain and fear he saw the face of the thing that so closely mirrored his own. The face that had once been his brother's.
Hoyt could smell the death on him, and the blood, and could see in those red eyes the animal his brother had become. Still, a small flame of hope flickered in Hoyt's heart.
"Cian. Help me stop her. We still have a chance."
"Do you feel how strong I am?" Cian closed his hand around Hoyt's throat and squeezed. "It's only the beginning. I have forever now." He leaned down, licked blood from Hoyt's face, almost playfully. "She wants you for herself, but I'm hungry. So hungry. And the blood in you is mine, after all."
As he bared his fangs, pressed them to his brother's throat, Hoyt thrust the dagger into him.
With a howl, Cian reared back. Shock and pain rushed over his face. Even as he clutched at the wound, he fell. For an instant, Hoyt thought he saw his brother, his true brother. Then there was nothing but the screams of the storm and the slashing rain.
He crawled and clawed his way up the cliff. His hands, slippery with blood and sweat and rain, groped for any hold. Lightning illuminated his face, tight with pain, as he inched his way up rock, tore his fingers in the clawing. His neck, where the fangs had scraped, burned like a brand. Breath whistling, he clutched at the edge.
If she waited, he was dead. His power had waned with exhaustion, drained with the ravages of his shock and grief. He had nothing but the dagger, still red with his brother's blood.
But when he pulled himself up, when he rolled to his back with the bitter rain washing over his face, he was alone.
Perhaps it had been enough, perhaps he'd sent the demon back to hell. As he had surely sent his own flesh and blood to damnation.
Rolling over, he gained his hands and knees, and was viciously ill. Magic was ashes in his mouth.
He crawled to his staff, used it to help him stand. Breath keening, he staggered away from the cliffs, along a path he'd have known had he been blinded. The power had gone out of the storm as it had gone out of him, and now was merely a soaking rain.
He smelled home—horse and hay, the herbs he'd used for protection, the smoke from the fire he'd left smoldering in the hearth. But there was no joy in it, no triumph.
As he limped toward his cottage, his breath whistled out, hisses of pain that were lost in the rise of the wind. He knew if the thing that had taken his brother came for him now, he was lost. Every shadow, every shape cast by the stormtossed trees could be his death. Worse than his death. Fear of that slicked along his skin like dirty ice, so that he used what strength he had to murmur incantations that were more like prayers for whoever, or whatever, would listen.
His horse stirred in its shelter, let out a huff as it scented him. But Hoyt continued shakily to the small cottage, dragging himself to the door and through.
Inside was warmth, and the ripple from the spells he'd cast before he'd gone to the cliffs. He barred the door, leaving smears of his and Cian's blood on the wood. Would it keep her out? he wondered. If the lore he'd read was fact, she couldn't enter without an invitation. All he could do was have faith in that, and in the protection spell that surrounded his home.
He let his soaked cloak fall, let it lay in a sodden heap on the floor, and had to fight not to join it there. He would mix potions for healing, for strength. And would sit through the night, tending the fire. Waiting for dawn.
He'd done all he could for his parents, his sisters and their families. He had to believe it was enough.
Cian was dead, and what had come back with his face and form had been destroyed. He would not, could not, harm them now. But the thing that had made him could.
He would find something stronger to protect them. And he would hunt the demon again. His life, he swore it now, would be dedicated to her destruction.
His hands, long of finger, wide of palm, were tremulous as he chose his bottles and pots. His eyes, stormy blue, were glazed with pain—the aches of his body, of his heart. Guilt weighed on him like a shroud of lead. And those demons played inside him.
He hadn't saved his brother. Instead, he had damned and destroyed him, cast him out and away. How had he won that terrible victory? Cian had always been physically superior to him. And what his brother had become was viciously powerful.
So his magic had vanquished what he'd once loved. The half of him that was bright and impulsive where he himself was often dull and staid. More interested in his studies and his skills than society.
Cian had been the one for gaming and taverns, for wenches and sport.
"His love of life," Hoyt murmured as he worked. "His love of life killed him. I only destroyed that which trapped him in a beast."
He had to believe it.
Pain rippled up his ribs as he shucked off his tunic. Bruises were already spreading, creeping black over his skin the way grief and guilt crept black over his heart. It was time for practical matters, he told himself as he applied the balm. He fumbled considerably, cursed violently, in wrapping the bandage over his ribs. Two were broken, he knew, just as he knew the ride back home in the morning would be a study in sheer misery.
He took a potion, then limped to the fire. He added turf so the flames glowed red. Over them he brewed tea. Then wrapped himself in a blanket to sit, to drink, to brood.
He had been born with a gift, and from an early age had soberly, meticulously sought to honor it. He'd studied, often in solitude, practicing his art, learning its scope. Cian's powers had been less, but, Hoyt remembered, Cian had never practiced so religiously nor studied so earnestly. And Cian had played with magic, after all. Amusing himself and others.
And Cian had sometimes drawn him in, lowered Hoyt's resistance until they'd done something foolish together. Once they'd turned the boy who'd pushed their younger sister in the mud into a braying, long-eared ass.
How Cian had laughed! It had taken Hoyt three days of work, sweat and panic to reverse the spell, but Cian had never worried a whit.
He was born an ass, after all. We've just given him his true form.
From the time they'd been twelve, Cian had been more interested in swords than spells. Just as well, Hoyt thought as he drank the bitter tea. He'd been irresponsible with magic, and a magician with a sword.
But, steel hadn't saved him, nor had magic, in the end.
He sat back, chilled to his bones despite the simmering turf. He could hear what was left of the storm blowing still, splattering on his roof, wailing through the forest that surrounded his cottage.
But he heard nothing else, not beast, not threat. So was left alone with his memories and regrets.
He should've gone with Cian into the village that evening. But he'd been working, and hadn't wanted ale, or the smells and sounds of a tavern, of people.
He hadn't wanted a woman, and Cian had never not wanted one.
But if he'd gone, if he'd put aside his work for one bloody night, Cian would be alive. Surely the demon couldn't have overpowered both of them. Surely his gift would have allowed him to sense what the creature was, despite her beauty, her allure.
Cian would never have gone with her had his brother been by his side. And their mother would not be grieving. The grave would never have been dug, and by the gods, the thing they buried would never have risen.
If his powers could turn back time, he would give them up, abjure them, to have that one night to relive that single moment when he'd chosen work over his brother's company.
"What good do they do me? What good are they now? To have been given magic and not be able to use it to save what matters most? Damn to them all then." He flung his cup across the little room. "Damn to them all, gods and faeries. He was the light of us, and you've cast him into the dark."
All of his life Hoyt had done what he was meant to do, what was expected of him. He had turned away from a hundred small pleasures to devote himself to his art. Now those who had given him this gift, this power, had stood back while his own brother was taken?
Not in battle, not even with the clean blade of magic, but through evil beyond imagination. This was his payment, this was his reward for all he had done?
He waved a hand toward the fire, and in the hearth flames leaped and roared. He threw up his arms, and overhead the storm doubled in power so that the wind screamed like a tortured woman. The cottage trembled under its might, and the skins pulled tight over the windows split. Cold gusts spilled into the room, toppling bottles, flapping the pages of his books. And in it he heard the throaty chuckle of the black.
Not once in all of his life had he turned from his purpose. Not once had he used his gift for ill, or touched upon the black arts.
Perhaps now, he thought, he would find the answers in them. Find his brother again. Fight the beast, evil against evil.
He shoved to his feet, ignoring the scream in his side. He whirled toward his cot and flung out both hands toward the trunk he'd locked by magic. When it flew open, he strode to it, reached in for the book he'd shut away years before.
In it were spells, dark and dangerous magicks. Spells that used human blood, human pain. Spells of vengeance and greed that spoke to a power that ignored all oaths, all vows.
It was hot and heavy in his hands, and he felt the seduction of it, those curling fingers that brushed the soul. Have all, have any. Are we not more than the rest? Living gods who take whatever is desired?
We have the right! We are beyond rules and reasons.
His breath came short for he knew what could be his if he accepted it, if he took in both hands what he'd sworn never to touch. Unnamed wealth, women, unspeakable powers, life eternal. Revenge.
He had only to say the words, to rebuke the white and embrace the black. Clammy snakes of sweat slithered down his back as he heard the whispers of voices from a thousand ages: Take. Take. Take.
His vision shimmered, and through it he saw his brother as he'd found him in the muck on the side of the road. Blood pooled from the wounds in his throat, and more smeared his lips. Pale, Hoyt thought dimly. So very pale was his face against that wet, red blood.
Now Cian's eyes—vivid and blue—opened. There was such pain in them, such horror. They pleaded as they met Hoyt's.
"Save me. Only you can save me. It's not death I'm damned to. 'Tis beyond hell, beyond torment. Bring me back. For once don't count the cost. Would you have me burn for all eternity? For the sake of your own blood, Hoyt, help me."
He shook. It wasn't from the cold that blew through the split skins, or the damp that whirled in the air, but from the icy edge on which he stood.
"I would give my life for yours. I swear it on all I am, on all we were. I would take your fate, Cian, if that were the choice before me. But I can't do this. Not even for you."
The vision on the bed erupted in flames, and its screams were past human. On a howl of grief, Hoyt heaved the book back in the trunk. He used the strength left to him to charm the lock before he collapsed on the floor. There he curled up like a child beyond all comfort.
• * *
Perhaps he slept. Perhaps he dreamed. But when he came to, the storm had passed. Light seeped into the room and grew, bold and bright and white, to sear his eyes. He blinked against it, hissing as his ribs protested when he tried to sit up.
There were streams of pink and gold shimmering in the white, warmth radiating from it. He smelled earth, he realized, rich and loamy, and the smoke from the turf fire that was still shimmering in the hearth.
He could see the shape of her, female, and sensed a staggering beauty.
This was no demon come for blood.
Gritting his teeth, he got to his knees. Though there was still grief and anger in his voice, he bowed his head.
"My lady."
The light seemed to part for her. Her hair was the fiery red of a warrior, and flowed over her shoulders in silky waves. Her eyes were green as the moss in the forest, and soft now with what might have been pity. She wore white robes trimmed in gold as was her right by rank. Though she was the goddess of battle, she wore no armor, and carried no sword.
She was called Morrigan.
"You have fought well."
"I have lost. I have lost my brother."
"Have you?" She stepped forward, offered him a hand so he would rise. "You stayed true to your oath, though the temptation was great."
"I might have saved him otherwise."
"No." She touched Hoyt's face, and he felt the heat of her. "You would have lost him, and yourself. I promise you. You would give your life for his, but you could not give your soul, or the souls of others. You have a great gift, Hoyt."
"What good is it if I cannot protect my own blood? Do the gods demand such sacrifice, to damn an innocent to such torment?"
"It was not the gods who damned him. Nor was it for you to save him. But there is sacrifice to be made, battles to be fought. Blood, innocent and otherwise, to be spilled. You have been chosen for a great task."
"You could ask anything of me now, Lady?"
"Aye. A great deal will be asked of you, and of others. There is a battle to be fought, the greatest ever waged. Good against evil. You must gather the forces."
"I am not able. I am not willing. I am . . . God, I am tired."
He dropped to the edge of his cot, dropped his head in his hands. "I must go see my mother. I must tell her I failed to save her son."
"You have not failed. Because you resisted the dark, you are charged to bear this standard, to use the gift you've been given to face and to vanquish that which would destroy worlds. Shake off this self-pity!"
His head rose at the sharp tone. "Even the gods must grieve, Lady. I have killed my brother tonight."
"Your brother was killed by the beast, a week ago. What fell from the cliff was not your Cian. You know this. But he . . . continues."
Hoyt got shakily to his feet. "He lives."
"It is not life. It is without breath, without soul, without heart. It has a name that is not spoken yet in this world. It is vampyre. It feeds on blood," she said, moving toward him. "It hunts the human, takes life, or worse, much worse, turns that which it hunts and kills into itself. It breeds, Hoyt, like a pestilence. It has no face, and must hide from the sun. It is this you must fight, this and other demons that are gathering. You must meet this force in battle on the feast of Samhain. And you must be victorious or the world you know, the worlds you have yet to know, will be overcome."
"And how will I find them? How will I fight them? It was Cian who was the warrior."
"You must leave this place and go to another, and another still. Some will come to you, and some you will seek. The witch, the warrior, the scholar, the one of many forms, and the one you've lost."
"Only five more? Six against an army of demons? My lady—"
"A circle of six, as strong and true as the arm of a god. When that circle is formed, others may be formed. But the six will be my army, the six will make the ring. You will teach and you will learn, and you will be greater than the sum of you. A month to gather, and one to learn, and one to know. The battle comes on Samhain. "You, child, are my first."
"You would ask me to leave the family I have left, when that thing that took my brother may come for them?"
"The thing that took your brother leads this force."
"I wounded her—it. I gave her pain." And the memory of that bubbled up in him like vengeance.
"You did, aye, you did. And this is only another step toward this time and this battle. She bears your mark now, and will, in time, seek you out."
"If I hunt her now, destroy her now."
"You cannot. She is beyond you at this time, and you, my child, are not ready to face her. Between these times and worlds, her thirst will grow insatiable until only the destruction of all humankind will satisfy it. You will have your revenge, Hoyt," she said as he got to his feet. "If you defeat her. You will travel far, and you will suffer. And I will suffer knowing your pain, for you are mine. Do you think your fate, your happiness is nothing to me? You are my child even as you are your mother's."
"And what of my mother, Lady? Of my father, my sisters, their families? Without me to protect them, they may be the first to die if this battle you speak of comes to pass."
"It will come to pass. But they will be beyond it." She spread her hands. "Your love for your blood is part of your power, and I will not ask you to turn from it. You will not think clearly until you have assurance they will be safe."
She tipped back her head, held her arms up, palms cupped. The ground shook lightly under his feet, and when Hoyt looked up, he saw stars shooting through the night sky. Those points of light streamed toward her hands, and there burst into flame.
His heart thumped against his bruised ribs as she spoke, as her fiery hair flew around her illuminated face.
"Forged by the gods, by the light and by the night. Symbol and shield, simple and true. For faith, for loyalty, these gifts for you. Their magic lives through blood shed, yours and mine."
Pain sliced over his palm. He watched the blood well in his, and in hers as the fire burned.
"And so it shall live for all time. Blessed be those who wear Morrigan's Cross."
The fire died, and in the goddess's hands were crosses of gleaming silver.
"These will protect them. They must wear the cross always—day and night—birth to death. You will know they are safe when you leave them."
"If I do this thing, will you spare my brother?"
"You would bargain with the gods?"
She smiled, an amused mother to a child. "You have been chosen, Hoyt, because you would think to do so. You will leave this place and gather those who are needed. You will prepare and you will train. The battle will be fought with sword and lance, with tooth and fang, with wit and treachery. If you are victorious, the worlds will balance and you will have all you wish to have."
"How do I fight a vampyre? I've already failed against her."
"Study and learn," she said. "And learn from one of her kind. One she made. One who was yours before she took him. You must first find your brother."
"Not only where, but when. Look into the fire, and see."
They were, he noted, in his cottage again, and he was standing in front of the hearth. The flames spiked up, became towers. Became a great city. There were voices and sounds such as he'd never heard. Thousands of people rushed along streets that were made of some kind of stone. And machines sped with them.
"What is this place?" He could barely whisper the words. "What world is it?"
"It is called New York, and its time is nearly a thousand years from where we are. Evil still walks the world, Hoyt, as well as innocence, as well as good. Your brother has walked the world a long time now. Centuries have passed for him. You would do well to remember that."
"Is he a god now?"
"He is vampyre. He must teach you, and he must fight beside you. There can be no victory without him."
Such size, he thought. Buildings of silver and stone taller than any cathedral. "Will the war be in this place, in this New York?"
"You will be told where, you will be told how. And you will know. Now you must go, take what you need. Go to your family and give them their shields. You must leave them quickly, and go to the Dance of the Gods. You will need your skill, and my power, to pass through. Find your brother,
Hoyt. It is time for the gathering."
He woke by the fire, the blanket wrapped around him. But he saw it hadn't been a dream. Not with the blood drying on the palm of his hand, and the silver crosses lying across his lap.
It was not yet dawn, but he packed books and potions, oatcakes and honey. And the precious crosses. He saddled his horse, and then, as a precaution, cast another protective circle around his cottage.
He would come back, he promised himself. He would find his brother, and this time, he would save him. Whatever it took.
As the sun cast its first light, he began the long ride to An Clar, and his family home.

The story lines for these books are fantastic, but the reader Dick Hill is so very very very bad. He has really ruined these books for me (as far as listening to them). I recomend that you read the book rather than listen to it in audiobook. I also have friends at work that would agree with me. I love audiobooks, not much of an actual reader, so when I say "read the book, don't listen" the reader must be really really horrible and Dick Hill is.
I loved it. I am a big fan of Nora Robers (and J.D.Robb). I especially like her "series" books. I like romance, suspense, and science fantasy/paranormal. This series has it all. I read all three books back to back (in 4 days) then gave it to a good friend to read. Would like to see NR write some more in this vein.
I just got done with the hollows series and this trilogy had the feel of that last series but a better story... You know 3 girls and 3 guys a pair hook up in each book..the end of the world love affairs...I gave 4 stars cause it is a good read but I am disappointed because of the similarities in each trilogy I have read so far from NR.
In 1128 Eire, the ancient vampiress Lilith has converted Cian Mac Cionaoith into a nightcrawler follower of hers. Cian¿s horrified twin Hoyt vows to destroy the evil, but his efforts fail as she proves too powerful.---------------- Still he refuses to give up the fight against this malevolence and her minion. He is renewed when Morrigan the Goddess of Battle demands he lead the forces of good against the abomination, but first must gather his allies, five other pure souls consisting of 'the witch, the warrior, the scholar, the one of many forms, and the one you've lost.' To do so he must go to present day New York where he confronts his vampiric sibling and Glenna the witch as the 'circle of six' begin to form in time for the ultimate war between good and evil.---------------- - Nora Roberts is at her best as she smoothly and seemingly effortlessly switches from her romantic suspense thrillers to a wonderful romantic fantasy. The story line is fast-paced and filled with a strong believable cast that leads to the audience to believe in this realm. Readers of the great Ms. Roberts' novels will marvel at the flexibility of her talent while the sub-genre fans will welcome her first entry with accolades and delight.------------- Harriet Klausner
The Circle Closed Way Too Soon: There just simply aren't enough words to explain how very much I enjoyed not only this book but the entire trilogy. I'd stayed far away from Nora Roberts books for many years, thinking of her as only a romance or romantic suspense novelist. This series is a true foray into fantasy, and it's exquisitely done. I tore through all three books one after the other and felt extremely disappointed that there weren't any more. I would simply ask the author to please write more of these kinds of books, possibly even revisiting these same characters and settings. There are two series by this author that I recommend to those not looking for a romance, one of course is this one, The Circle Trilogy, and the other is The Sign of Severn Trilogy, both very well done.
This is the first book in the series and it only gets better. Love Nora Roberts!
Read it. The characters are great. I was hooked. If you like vamps, romance, historical drama and/or a little action you will love this!
Nora Roberts is one of my favorite authors, and I definitly recommend this and all of her books.
I really enjoyed this book as the story was well written and the characters rocked!Like th female characters had a cool kick-ass attitude and the guys were hot,The romantic tension between Glenna and Hoyt was so real and when they were together their love just made their power stronger so it was really romantic.it was a page turner and this is my first Nora Roberts book but i didn't have that feeling of reading the sequel like i usually do,i was glad i only borrowed it but hey,i recommend you have a go at this romantic action packed novel.
I thought that the book started a little slow but then picked up. Once I got into it had a hard time putting it down.
Loved all 3 books. The last one was especially my favorite with great ending.
I have never really been a big fan of Nora Roberts' writing style, and this book did not improve my stance. This book came highly recommended by a couple of family members, but it just was not for me. Predictable characters that you can't really get attached to with a plot line that is the same as most other vampire tales. Nothing new, nothing great. Not a great read.
Excellent read as Nora Roberts always is! The beginning slow but in the middle it picked up! Now I can't put it down! The story plot is different but that is what I like about it!
I'm big a fan of Nora Roberts and of course I've read a lot of her books, and I could tell you this trilogy was so different and so charming. It keeps me captivated since the very beggining of the story. You will love all of the characters. If you believe in magic you will love this Circle Trilogy.
The first of three books. It was a good original story.
I read everything that Nora Roberts writes, yet this was unexpected AND exceptional. Morigan's Cross, as a title, led me to think of England, you know, the way they name some streets and corners over there. So when I realized that the cross was something else, well!!! Then, also having read Ann Rice's vampire novels, I thought that Nora couldn't possibly beat her. Wrong again! Ann Rice, move over! Nora has taken vampyre to a new level of both intrigue and romance.

9/11 Deceptions based on 0 ratings. 6 reviews.
This book is a piece of CRAP. What is a mini-nuke? If a "mini-nuke" exploded where the flip did the RADIATION go. There isn't even such thing as a mini nuke. DO NOT BUY!!!
I love this book.
"no cell phone calls were possible at their flying altitudes and speeds..." So the numberless air travelers who have made cellphone calls from an airliner are all just fooling themselves. And "no muslims" boarded the planes because the author can tell ethnicity and religion IN RETROSPECT by looking at old photos. Liberal tin foilers.
"All we want are the facts, ma'am." -Dragnet's Sergeant Joe Friday M.P. Lelong, a retired 90-year-old Falls Church, Virginia patent attorney, chose an excellent name for his book because that is exactly what the book is, a collection of deceptions and not a scientific study. If you would like to read a scientific study, I recommend WHERE DID THE TOWERS GO? by Dr. Judy Wood. On 9/11 over a half mile of vertical building height, containing nearly 150 football fields of floor space, was reduced to a near-level field of dust and debris, where rescue workers walked horizontally or rappelled into empty caverns to look for survivors. How was this possible given the standard laws of engineering and physics? The 9/11 Commission Report bypassed this central issue, as did the report of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Contrary to its stated objective of determining 'why and how WTC 1 and WTC 2 collapsed,' the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) made the stunning admission that it did not investigate how the towers fell. Neither the standard view that the Twin Towers collapsed from fire nor the standard opposition view that they were intentionally detonated by thermite explosives explains the evidence, nor do they follow the laws of engineering and physics. Dr. Wood left Clemson to research the 9/11 conundrum full time, and she has focused her research strictly on physical evidence and scientific principles. WHERE DID THE TOWERS GO? provides an understandable, credible, and photo-enhanced summary of Dr. Wood's disturbing findings, which resulted in her lawsuit against the contractors of the NIST report. If you are not familiar with Dr. Judy Wood and her 500 page hardcover textbook WHERE DID THE TOWERS GO?, below is a recent Coast to Coast radio interview and book review by Eric Larsen, novelist and Emeritus Professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, The City University of New York. Coast to Coast AM- Where did the towers go? Dr. Judy Wood 05-03-2011 Former professor of Mechanical Engineering at Clemson University, Dr. Judy Wood discussed how the destruction of buildings in NYC on 9-11 was the result of directed energy technology, not planes, fire, thermite or bombs. Coast To Coast AM airs on approximately 542 stations in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and Guam with nearly three million listeners. Host: George Noory Time: 113 minutes.

Product Description
Product Description
You'll get no apologies from The Format when it comes to dissecting their brand of rousing, straight ahead pop music. Sam Means and Nate Ruess, the bright, prolific duo who make up the new Elektra group, both barely scraping their early 20's, have crafted a sparkling, spirited 12 song hook-laden epic that defies you not to hum along. The debut is a cocktail of diverse flavors, with emphasis on the singer/songwriting nucleus that mixes a knack for Beatlesque melodies with `80's styled layerings, including big fat drum machines, idyllic synths and maybe even a handclap or two.
Every great power pop band is all about two things: meaty melodies and oo-la-la choruses, and there's no disbelieving that this Phoenix band have the formula nailed on their sophomore album. Produced by a master of the genre (Steve McDonald, founding member of Redd Kross), the 12-tracker advances the Format's debut album by sandblasting pocketfuls of hooks and poetic prose into the consciousness. Band leaders Nate Ruess and Sam Means progress like a modern day Colin Blunstone/Rod Argent, zigzagging Zombies-like through a piano-led, choral-like pool of tuneful experimentation and falsetto intonation. The band make it almost too easy to pick out potential radio gems, which include up-tempo numbers like "Time Bomb" and "She Doesn't Get It," and especially "Oceans," with its glee club chorus that's downright impossible to shake. But Dog Problems must be heard as a whole to appreciate the dexterous brilliance of Means and Ruess, who apply a '20s dancehall vibe to the title track, turn the narcissistic "I'm Actual" into an Abbey Road waltz, and even flirt with country music in the discreet "Snails." Like the Zombies, the Raspberries, Dwight Twilley, or the Shins? This record may be for you. --Scott Holter

The Format felt some pressure from their label to duplicate their 2003 debut, INTERVENTIONS AND LULLABIES -- but when Nate Ruess and company decided to stick to their own vision, the label lost interest. What came of their trials is the 2006 follow-up DOG PROBLEMS (released on their own imprint label), a collection of catchy indie pop that, with its boisterous bevy of guitars, keyboards, and horns, sparkles with whimsy and humour. The tracks breathe with variety, spanning different moods and tempos -- often within the same song -- while employing quick, witty lyrics.
Listeners can easily enjoy these tracks for the melodies alone, but mining the lyrics reveals something else altogether. Catchy and jaunty these tunes may be, but superficial and vapid they are not. Multiple listens are a must, because grasping both the sheer cleverness and the wide scope within the lyrics can hardly be done at one go.
Wordplay and interesting metaphors are abound. The listener can be moved to laugh in one moment (from "She Doesn't Get It": 'I've read every word you've said/From the poster of a cat/Four books look across your sofa/I thought your coffee table/Was more clever than that') and take pause the next (from "If Work Permits": 'It's a shame what your father did to your brother's head/When he smashed it with a telephone/...You were only four/But lord, you remember it').Read more ›
First time listeners or fans of Interventions will probably find Oceans, The Compromise and Time Bomb the most accessible and best introductory songs. Keep listening though, and this one will grow on you. It's a brilliant album by a criminally unknown band.
Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
If you are, you'll be rewarded with an intricate, satisfying collection of songs that make a coherent whole, but are individually catchy as well. Nate hasn't lost any of his gift for writing the perfect lyric, as noted in an earlier review, and his voice is, if anything, more powerful than before.
The song arrangements take some getting used to. My first listen, I thought they were overproduced -- too many horns, too much harmony -- but on repeated listens, what seemed overly complicated was just agreeably complex. Nate's voice never gets lost in the shuffle, and the tune remains the driving force.
This is an album to listen to in its entirety, then listen again through good speakers, then again through headphones, then again and again. I'm still hearing surprises on my fifteenth or sixteenth go-round. From the Queen-influenced title track to the Mountain Goats-esque "If Work Permits," this is one CD you'll come back to over and over again.
Fast forward a couple of years, and they release two EPs (Snails and The Street Team EPs) and start releasing a lot of new material for our listening pleasure. This is one thing I love about this band. They aren't so secretive about their music and the recording process, on the other hand my favorite band of all time, Brand New is a completely different story. Been waiting on their new album for almost 3 years.
About a month and half or so back I get news that their new album has leaked. That same day they released a digital download of the whole album for 8 bucks or so. I bought it from them and its yet to get any rest in the car, on the computer or ipod. I'm in love with the new album. I just bought the hard copy today. Love the artwork.
On to the album. I usually listen to the album from top to bottom because their aren't really any filler tracks and each one has something new I discover with each listen. A few of my favorite tracks have to be "She Doesn't Get It" "Dog Problems" "Oceans" and "If Work Permits". You'll get lost in he ohhhh's, horns and laaaaas.
Some lyrics I really enjoy are
"why am i scared of people in a room?
why cant they see a good time are the people close to you?
why dont i just give in, have a drink and shake some hands?
why am i scarred from what she did to me?
why cant i trust the only one who's yet to believe?
why dont i just give in, have a drink and shake some hands?"
track- oceans
"boys in swooping haircuts are bringing me down,
taking pictures of themselves, oh.
boys in swooping haircuts you know who you are"
track- dog problems
"Suddenly between sheets and eyelids, I am reminded why I don't do this.
I fall in love far too quickly,
I never want her to forget me."
track- she doesn't get it
"sometimes, when sailors are sailing
they think twice, about where theyre anchoring
and i think, i could make better time of my time on land
ill drink less
cause lord knows i could use a warm kiss
instead of a cold goodbye"
track- if work permits
"Life is not a play, it's what we
Make of the people we love."
track- snails
a must buy! great guys, amazing music.
"Although the band was inundated with major-label offers after their split with Atlantic, they decided to release under their own Vanity Label imprint, distributed by Sony/BMGa move that allowed them to make the album they wanted to make.
"It was great," says Ruess, describing the process of recording Dog Problems with producer Steve McDonald (Red Kross). "I'd go into the studio, make decisions and never have to hear things like, "I don't know if that has enough octane," he continues, laughing. "I feel like on the last record, we were pressured to make an album full of singles, and this time we could just do whatever we want." It's true; six of the songs on Dog Problems have full orchestration (three of which are arranged by Jellyfish mastermind Roger Manning), and while the band may not have felt pressured to write singles, well, nearly every song on the disc could be one."
this cd makes me happy, i also saw them in concert 7 days ago (best ever).
