Prague, 1610
In a few short weeks seventeen-year-old Mila has gone from being Ludmila Novakova, pampered daughter of the High Chancellor of Bohemia, to becoming a traitor escaping the palace at midnight in her wedding nightgown. Her country is in chaos, an army is marching from Austria, and revolution is a breath away.
Mila is caught in the middle, between the man she loves—Marc, the son of a blacksmith and a leader of the rebellion—and the murderer the Church calls her husband. Even as she flees with Marc into the heart of the resistance, where the suspicions of angry citizens make her every palace-born habit a danger, she knows he hasn’t told her everything.

Incomensurabilidade
September 13, 2016 6:37
Nunca fez uma tempestade a respeito dos diferentes mundos, porém um assunto intimamente relacionado desencadeou um tufão de debates. Houve uma imensa luta filosófica acerca da questão de se saber em que medida sucessivas teorias científicas – pré e pós-revolução – poderiam ser comparadas umas com as outras.
Ian Hacking, em sua introdução ao livro A Estrutura das Revoluções Científicas (12. ed. São Paulo: Perspectiva, 2013 – original de 1962), acha que talvez a controvérsia à respeito da incomensurabilidade pudesse ter ocorrido somente no cenário estabelecido pelo empirismo lógico, a ortodoxia que era corrente na filosofia da ciência quando Kuhn estava redigindo a Estrutura.

Tuesday – Anything Possible with The Experimental Notebook of C.S.Boyack II and Lisa Burton #RRBC
September 13, 2016 6:36
Today I am so happy to welcome Lisa Burton once again to Fiction Favorites. For those of you who have been roleplaying vampires too long and haven’t been out much, Lisa is the robot assistant of Author C.S Boyack. Don’t let the term robot throw you. Lisa is every bit as human as I, as I, as I am. She is a terrific spokesperson and is used to help Craig with his promotional programs. Also noteworthy is the fact that Lisa is much better looking than Craig, so you have to respect his intellect on the choice. Without further blather, I present Lisa Barton who is here to discuss C.S.Boyack’s latest book.
Thanks for having me over again. The last time I was here I think I was interviewing you. You might find it interesting that you played a role in some of the goings on at Entertaining Stories.
My…

Walter Bargen: Old Rain
September 13, 2016 6:35

Ovate, serrate, oblong, lobed, green scales weighing
each droplet then bending to the fall─a full sky yet to weigh.
At the foot of each leaf a puddle taps out time.
