Colonization: Second Contact (9780345430229)



"[A] tour de force of speculative historical fiction. Highly recommended."--Library Journal

In the extraordinary Worldwar tetralogy, set against the backdrop of World War II, Harry Turtledove, the "Hugo-winning master of alternate SF" (Publishers Weekly), wove an explosive saga of world powers locked in conflict against an enemy from the stars. Now he expands his magnificent epic into the volatile 1960s, when the space race is in its infancy and humanity must face its greatest challenge: alien colonization of planet Earth. Yet even in the shadow of this inexorable foe, the United States, the Soviet Union, and Nazi Germany are unable to relinquish their hostilities and unite against a massive new wave of extraterrestrials. For all the countries of the world, this is the greatest threat of all. This time, the terrible price of defeat will be the conquest of our world, and perhaps the extinction of the human race itself. Praise for Second Contact "An exciting, often surprising, story that will not only delight his fans but will probably send newcomers back to the Worldwar saga."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Outstanding entertainment."--Booklist

The charming genealogical gumshoes in the cozy southern Family History Mystery series give new meaning to the old saying "keep the home fires burning" when their investigation into a long-ago house fire leads to a modern-day murder.

Still saddened by his late parents' steadfast conviction--against all evidence to the contrary--that the fire was cover for a kidnapping, the senator wants this rumor put to rest once and for all.

Objects First with Java: A Practical Introduction Using BlueJ, Global Edition (9781292159041)

A Modern Approach to Functional Programming Objects First with Java: A Practical Introduction is an introduction to object-oriented programming for beginners. The main focus of the book is general object-oriented and programming concepts from a software engineering perspective.

Unlike traditional textbooks, the chapters are not ordered by language features but by software development concepts. The Sixth Edition goes beyond just adding the new language constructs of Java 8.
