A Choice That Would Determine The Fate Of The World . . . “Author’s debut novel is a riveting page-turning that will delight fantasy readers.” “In the land of two moons, there were three kingdoms; the Magicians’ Plains, the Vampires’ Mountains, and the Werewolves’ Forests. Each of these groups kept to themselves, and each were separated from the others with natural boundaries. But that all changed when vampires and werewolves declared war on each other. Born during an epic battle between vampires and werewolves, Elizibeth Timberman has no idea of the difficult choice she would have to make someday. When tragedy strikes days before she turns sixteen, she is rescued by a mysterious boy with the magnetic beauty of an angel. She finds herself torn when a newfound friend takes one side while her love takes the other. As she is neither vampire nor werewolf, she must make a choice—a choice that would change everything. Nevermore: To the Beams of Darkness is the story of that choice, of what she turned into, and how one action ended an ongoing battle. Riveting from the first page until the last, this debut novel by Molly Lynn Robinson is sure to delight fans of fantasy, forbidden romance, and adventure stories. The author’s masterful storytelling and intriguing plot makes for a truly unforgettable read. Readers won’t want to put down this enthralling page-turner.”

Write Like a Chemist is a unique guide to chemistry-specific writing. Written with National Science Foundation support and extensively piloted in chemistry courses nationwide, it offers a structured approach to writing that targets four important chemistry genres: the journal article, conference abstract, scientific poster, and research proposal. Chemistry students, post-docs, faculty, and other professionals interested in perfecting their disciplinary writing will find it an indispensable reference. Users of the book will learn to write through a host of exercises, ranging in difficulty from correcting single words and sentences to writing professional-quality papers, abstracts, posters, and proposals. The book's read-analyze-write approach teaches students to analyze what they read and then write, paying attention to audience, organization, writing conventions, grammar, and science content, thereby turning the complex process of writing into graduated, achievable tasks. Concise writing and organizational skills are stressed throughout, and "move structures" teach students conventional ways to present their stories of scientific discovery. This resource includes over 350 excerpts from ACS journal articles, ACS conference abstracts, and successful NSF CAREER proposals, excerpts that will serve as useful models of chemistry writing for years to come. Other special features: Usable in chemistry lab, lecture, and writing-dedicated courses Useful as a writing resource for practicing chemists Augmented by Language Tips that address troublesome areas of language and grammer in a self-study format Accompanied by a Web site: http://www.oup.com/us/writelikeachemist Supplemented with an answer key for faculty adopting the book
