Artificial Limbs
Artificial limbs, or prosthetics, have been recorded in history as early as ancient Egypt. Innovations over the centuries mean that many who are missing or have lost a limb, whether through trauma, disease, or congenital condition, can be fitted with limbs that not only look authentic, but also effectuate the movements of human limbs. This wide-ranging work details the kinds of prostheses available today, how they're made, how they work, the challenges that face those who use them, and exciting advances in prosthetic technology. Readers will marvel at these medical wonders as well as the people who fabricate and utilize them.

A Novel Interpretation of the Eternal 'Troikra'
The Hyperions, Book One
The royal command ship Calpernia leads the Hyperion fleet deeper into a mysterious space sector. Although the ships carry hundreds of thousands of men, women, and children, they represent only a small portion of the once great Hyperion empire. They are the survivors; refugees from a doomed planet ravaged, and ultimately destroyed, by internal strife. Hyperion, in the grips of civil war, had exploded into lifeless fragments hurtling in all directions, allowing scant time or resources for all but a fraction of their race to escape through a wormhole and join the Calpernia in orbit around Earth’s moon. Under the leadership of their new king, Kevian, the surviving Hyperions constructed a fleet of massive starships that now serve as their temporary home until a habitable planet can be found and declared New Hyperion. But like all quests, the Grail remains elusive. From the pages of the Vampires Vs. Aliens Young Adult Science Fiction - Fantasy series!
