The Mongol Ascension
MISSION: SAVE THE WORLD DESTINATION: ANCIENT MONGOLIA Seventeen-year-old Dan Renfrew leads a normal high school life full of all the usual challenges: homework, bullies, and the baffling world of dating. It would be enough for most teens, but Dan has a secret. He’s a time jumper, a member of a clandestine cadre tasked with journeying to the past to repair glitches in history that imperil subsequent events. This responsibility alone is daunting, but it’s even more crucial now. A band of rogue time jumpers is bent on taking over the world, and Dan can’t find any allies to join him in the fight to stop them. In a last-ditch effort to foil the conspiracy, Dan and his partner Sam plunge into history together. Landing on the steppes of Mongolia in the year 1179, they meet a brave Mongol teen on a courageous quest to rescue his kidnapped wife. But Dan and Sam soon discover that there’s far more at stake than a stolen bride. They’re thrust into a desperate race against time to save the Mongol Empire—and the future of the entire world.

Braid and Knot Theory in Dimension Four
Braid theory and knot theory are related via two famous results due to Alexander and Markov. Alexander's theorem states that any knot or link can be put into braid form. Markov's theorem gives necessary and sufficient conditions to conclude that two braids represent the same knot or link. Thus, one can use braid theory to study knot theory and vice versa. In this book, the author generalizes braid theory to dimension four. He develops the theory of surface braids and applies it tostudy surface links. In particular, the generalized Alexander and Markov theorems in dimension four are given. This book is the first to contain a complete proof of the generalized Markov theorem. Surface links are ...

Don't Judge the Day by the Dawn
Pre-teen Samantha Marrel's life is inauspicious. A pariah, both at home and socially, she digs deep, exercising her self determination to find her own way out of Goose Creek to an undefined greater future. She is convinced that dedication and work are the best bet at breaking her family's trend of detrimental decision making. An exceptional scholar athlete, Samantha studies hard and runs fast towards what she sees as a better reality, deadening her reaction to the slights from people around her. Goose Creek alters her expectations along the way with drop-downs in emotion and pop-ups of commotion, yielding wisdom and understanding of the very people and circumstances she is escaping. How far can we get from our reality before we accept that the very thing we are running from is among our greatest resources?
Surface-Knots in 4-Space
This introductory volume provides the basics of surface-knots and related topics, not only for researchers in these areas but also for graduate students and researchers who are not familiar with the field.Knot theory is one of the most active research fields in modern mathematics. Knots and links are closed curves (one-dimensional manifolds) in Euclidean 3-space, and they are related to braids and 3-manifolds. These notions are generalized into higher dimensions. Surface-knots or surface-links are closed surfaces (two-dimensional manifolds) in Euclidean 4-space, which are related to two-dimensional braids and 4-manifolds. Surface-knot theory treats not only closed surfaces but also surfaces with boundaries in 4-manifolds. For example, knot concordance and knot cobordism, which are also important objects in knot theory, are surfaces in the product space of the 3-sphere and the interval.Included in this book are basics of surface-knots and the related topics of classical knots, the motion picture method, surface diagrams, handle surgeries, ribbon surface-knots, spinning construction, knot concordance and 4-genus, quandles and their homology theory, and two-dimensional braids.
Stay Center
This is supposed to be 16-year-old Paige Race’s year. Paige knows it, her best friend and teammate Savannah (Van) Raguzzi knows it, and even her coach thinks she’ll earn the league title. But when transfer superstar Keith Nicholson beats out Van for a place on the team, Paige’s plans are, well, shot to hell. And Keith? He just happens to be the same arrogant and annoyingly attractive shooter who beat her last year (and was a giant ass about it). All Paige wants is to beat Keith for the league championship and keep her friendship with Van as strong as ever, but with Van off the team and in the arms of a sketchy new boyfriend, their once effortless friendship becomes strained. With the p...
The Magic Moment
Genevieve grew up knowing two things. One: It’s her destiny to do battle with the Shinar. Two: She and her Nephilim, Harith, belong together. The problem is her matchmaking magic hasn’t manifested yet, and she can’t get “Harry” to claim her. When Harry neglects to claim Genevieve on her twenty-first birthday, and her new haircut elicits more of an emotional response from him than she’s seen in years, their fight unlocks a vault of memories he’s been keeping from her. Fed up with him and his secrets, she takes matters into her own hands and decides to have sex with the first man she sees. But she gets more than she’s bargained for when this defiant act triggers a series of eve...
