The binary stars Ti and Silan are hosts for the Kovalen planetary system. The ruling monarchy of the system employs Royal Security to handle the problems of subversive or militant elements on the other inhabited planets in the system. Their methods are swift and ruthless. Their director, Mr. Detu, controls the specially trained assassins that are at his disposal. One of his agents, Jaan Larin, is among the best he has ever trained. Larin grew up a ́presumed ́ orphan on the streets of Kovalen ́s capital city. His hardened mentality and incredible aptitudes make him an ideal recruit for the work that Detu needs done. Larin, now heavily experienced in the field of covert ́terminations ́ is hand-picked for a mission that is vital to the very existence of the the "Order"; the Kovalen royal family that rules the system. His mission is to return to his homeworld, a place he has no memeory of ever being on, to conduct a search and recovery of stolen tech-manuals for the most dangerous weapon of mass destruction ever developed and used. The implosion warhead device can annihilate a whole planet; reduce it to rubble. A tattoo given to him at birth is his key to infiltrating the society of his homeworld. The planet Damirius is but a frontier planet with its own ideas of independence. The ruling regime wants the matter of the stolen plans to be solved quietly. The only clue that has been found has traced the stolen plans to Damririus. That clue is a woman ́s name: Jaquin. Before setting off on his assignment, Larin ́s street-hewn suspicions lead him to the discovery that he is meant to accomplish his mission, but not live to tell the tale. He is to be the pawn in a cover-up that will ensure the ́quiet solution ́ that the royal family wants. His mind begins to bound from one vision to another in a manner he can ́t understand. All he can do is cling to the realization that he must survive. The visions he sees are that of a woman. A most beautiful and seductive woman that torments his very soul. The Damirian mysticism begins its work and Larin is driven by his passions in what turns into the self-realizations and discovery of who he really is; the kidnapped heir to the throne of Damirius. Spiritually bound together by the unexplainable phenomenon called the ́wait ́, he and Jaquin are pulled together in an alliance to foil the plans of the Order. Hunted and haunted, Larin is first driven away from Jaquin into the frozen wild of Damirius. The struggle that ensues brings them together and sets a new course for the history of the entire Kovalen solar system.

The April Manifest

By: Chet Pointer

The train’s ghostly whistle howled in the cool, damp night. After several hours, the nerve-cutting screech of the cattle car’s wheels had left a sharp hum in Jacob’s ears. After more uncountable minutes that became hours, the train finally came to a halt. He could hear the sounds of doors slamming on their railings as they were opened. Many commands were being shouted, and the vicious barking of dogs echoed from outside the car. He could see lights through the slits of the confine. When the door to their car slid open, the same locking slam of it on its railings cut through him. The sounds from the outside became much clearer and coldly more frightening. He clutched his violin tightly and felt the rush of the crisp night air. For a moment, it cleared the stench of the confining car where they’d been locked into and hauled. An old woman asked the most poignant question that stuck out in his mind. “Where are we?” He didn’t know who answered her. “We are at death’s doors,” someone whispered.

Resolute Rebel

General Roswell S. Ripley, Charleston's Gallant Defender

By: Chet Bennett

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Resolute Rebel

General Roswell S. Ripley, Charleston's Gallant Defender

By: Chet Bennett

The first biography of the general’s complex, often contradictory military service in the US and Confederate armies and his postwar British exploits. Roswell S. Ripley (1823–1887) was a man of considerable contradictions exemplified by his distinguished antebellum service in the US Army, followed by a controversial career as a Confederate general. After the war he was active as an engineer/entrepreneur in Great Britain. Author Chet Bennett contends that these contradictions drew negative appraisals of Ripley from historiographers, and in Resolute Rebel Bennett strives to paint a more balanced picture of the man and his career. Born in Ohio, Ripley graduated from the US Military Academy and served with his classmate Ulysses S. Grant in the Mexican War, during which Ripley was cited for gallantry in combat. In 1849 he published The History of the Mexican War, the first book-length history of the conflict. While stationed at Fort Moultrie in Charleston, Ripley met his Charleston-born wife and began his conversion from unionism to secessionism. After resigning his US Army commission in 1853, Ripley became a sales agent for firearms manufacturers. When South Carolina seceded from the Union, Ripley took a commission in the South Carolina Militia and was later commissioned a brigadier general in the Confederate army. Wounded at the Battle of Antietam in 1862, he carried a bullet in his neck until his death. Unreconciled in defeat, Ripley moved to London, where he unsuccessfully attempted to gain control of arms-manufacturing machinery made for the Confederacy, invented and secured British patents for cannons and artillery shells, and worked as a writer who served the Lost Cause. After twenty-five years researching Ripley in the United States and Great Britain, Bennett asserts that there are possibly two reasons a biography of Ripley has not previously been written. First, it was difficult to research the twenty years he spent in England after the war. Second, Ripley was so denigrated by South Carolina’s governor Francis Pickens and Gen. P. G. T. Beauregard that many writers may have assumed it was not worth the effort and expense. Bennett documents a great disconnect between those negative appraisals and the consummate, sincere military honors bestowed on Ripley by his subordinate officers and the people of Charleston after his death, even though he had been absent for more than twenty years. “A vitally useful addition to the Civil War Charleston literature.” —Civil War Books and Authors “[A] deeply researched and closely argued study. General Roswell S. Ripley emerges from the margins of Civil War history thanks to the able pen of Chet Bennett.” —A. Wilson Greene, author of Civil War Petersburg: Confederate City in the Crucible of War

Field Study

By: Chet'la Sebree

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Field Study

By: Chet'la Sebree

Winner of the 2020 James Laughlin Award from the Academy of American Poets "Layered, complex, and infinitely compelling, Chet’la Sebree’s Field Study is a daring exploration of the self and our interactions with others—a meditation on desire, race, loss and survival." --Natasha Trethewey, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Memorial Drive Chet’la Sebree’s Field Study is a genre-bending exploration of black womanhood and desire, written as a lyrical, surprisingly humorous, and startlingly vulnerable prose poem I am society’s eraser shards—bits used to fix other people’s sh*t, then discarded. Somehow still a wet nurse, from actual babes to Alabama special elections. Seeking to understand the fallout of her relationship with a white man, the poet Chet’la Sebree attempts a field study of herself. Scientifically, field studies are objective collections of raw data, devoid of emotion. But during the course of a stunning lyric poem, Sebree’s control over her own field study unravels as she attempts to understand the depth of her feelings in response to the data of her life. The result is a singular and provocative piece of writing, one that is formally inventive, playfully candid, and soul-piercingly sharp. Interspersing her reflections with Tweets, quips from TV characters, and excerpts from the Black thinkers—Audre Lorde, Maya Angelou, Tressie McMillan Cottom—that inspire her, Sebree analyzes herself through the lens of a society that seems uneasy, at best, with her very presence. She grapples with her attraction to, and rejection of, whiteness and white men; probes the malicious manifestation of colorism and misogynoir throughout American history and media; and struggles with, judges, and forgives herself when she has more questions than answers. “Even as I accrue these notes,” Sebree writes, “I’m still not sure I’ve found the pulse.” A poem of love, heartbreak, womanhood, art, sex, Blackness, and America—sometimes all at once—Field Study throbs with feeling, searing and tender. With uncommon sensitivity and precise storytelling, Sebree makes meaning out of messiness and malaise, breathing life into a scientific study like no other.

Python Passive Network Mapping

P2NMAP

By: Chet Hosmer

Python Passive Network Mapping: P2NMAP is the first book to reveal a revolutionary and open source method for exposing nefarious network activity. The "Heartbleed" vulnerability has revealed significant weaknesses within enterprise environments related to the lack of a definitive mapping of network assets. In Python Passive Network Mapping, Chet Hosmer shows you how to effectively and definitively passively map networks. Active or probing methods to network mapping have traditionally been used, but they have many drawbacks - they can disrupt operations, crash systems, and - most importantly - miss critical nefarious activity. You require an accurate picture of the environments you protect and operate in order to rapidly investigate, mitigate, and then recover from these new attack vectors. This book gives you a deep understanding of new innovations to passive network mapping, while delivering open source Python-based tools that can be put into practice immediately. Python Passive Network Mapping is for practitioners, forensic investigators, IT teams, and individuals who work together when performing incident response and investigating potential damage, or are examining the impacts of new malware threats. Those defending critical infrastructures will have a special interest in this book, as active or probing methods of network mapping are rarely used within these environments as any resulting impacts can be disastrous. Python Passive Network Mapping is ideally suited for use as a text in a variety of academic programs to expose and engage students in the art of passively mapping enterprise networks, with the added benefit of providing exposure to open source Python solutions. - First book to show you how to use open source Python to conduct passive network mapping - Provides a new method for conducting incident response and investigating the extent of potential damage to your systems - Python code forensics toolkit for network mapping included on the companion website

They are the most talented -- and dangerous -- fighting force ever assembled, drawn from elite ranks of the FBI, the CIA, the Navy Seals, Britain MI-6, and Israel's Mossad. Handpicked by a reclusive billionaire-patriot, trained in the latest weapons, schooled in all forms of close combat ... The Specialists. When a raid on an Iraqi terrorist nest uncovers a list of American targets, the Specialists need answers fast. Is the list real? Which targets will be threatened first? And who's the mastermind behind it all? The Specialists have three chief suspect: the notorious Osama bin Laden; the Iranian Abdel Salim, known as the Muslim Assassin; and a shadowy figure who calls himself the Scimitar -- all masters of disguise whose exploits have brought destruction and death to untold innocents. Now the Specialists must stop the most ambitious act of terror yet: the theft of a nuclear bomb and its detonation somewhere within the United States.
