Kyria Dynami
Kyria Dynami. No one knows who she is. And there are only rumors on how she came to be who she is.Almost a decade ago there was an incident in a biological facility. Most of the people who worked there did not survive. What happened there was never brought out. All that's known is that over three dozen people died and only four survived. One of them is the woman who is now known as Kyria Dynami, or Kyria for those who want to keep it short.Because at least fourteen women died in the accident, no one knows which one of them became Kyria, a superheroine who could fly and who seemed indestructible.The biological facility was closed off, secured, and about a year ago they started dismantling the place. No one knows if they ever built a similar place, but popular belief has it that this was such a setback and a scare that no one will ever try it again.This story is not about the facility. It is about Kyria Dynami, that special woman who mocks gravity and bullets. And about a programmer.

The Perils of Certain English Prisoners
A classic collaboration between two literary giants, The Perils of Certain English Prisoners is a gripping adventure story filled with murder, intrigue, and strong female characters Following on from the success of The Lazy Tour of Two Idle Apprentices, Hesperus presents another collaboration from close friends and literary giants, Charles Dickens and Wilkie Collins. Their legendary friendship resulted in a number of joint literary ventures, in this case Collins wrote the second chapter under Dickens' supervision. Inspired by events of the Indian Mutiny in 1857, but wishing to distance himself from the context of India itself, Dickens chose to set his novella in Central America. This adventure story takes place on an island near the English colony of Belize, where a silver mine is overrun by pirates, who in turn murder a number of English colonists and take the remaining prisoner. In the diverting narrative that follows, the initiative of intrepid women prisoners enables the captives to escape.
The Perils of Certain English Prisoners and Their Treasure in Women, Children, Silver, and Jewels
The Perils of Certain English Prisoners and Their Treasure in Women, Children, Silver, and Jewels by Charles Dickens is about the trials and tribulations of various English prisoners. Excerpt: "It was in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and forty-four, that I, Gill Davis to command, His Mark, having then the honor to be a private in the Royal Marines, stood a-leaning over the bulwarks of the armed sloop Christopher Columbus, in the South American waters off the Mosquito shore. My lady remarks to me, before I go any further, that there is no such Christian name as Gill, and that her confident opinion is, that the name given to me in the baptism wherein I was made, &c., was Gilbert."
