  First Line-Of-Defense for Unprecedented XtremesMan's curiosity has led to great advances, but it has also brought on great peril. The tinkering of man has triggered an apocalyptic end that can't be stopped. By chance, or divine intervention, eight humans have been empowered by celestial orbs, giving them access to ancient power not meant for The Earthly Realm. Will this new power be enough to stop the onslaught of an alien enemy? "FLUX: Celestial Genesis" is the first in the FLUX Continuum series. Traversing through time, space, and new realities, The Twelve are the only hope to save All Of Creation. Man should have kept earth hidden; now that they know, the extinction can begin. An annihilation force known throughout the "Universe" as the Bahkrata are now aware of planet Earth. The desires of this civilization are to raid, pillage and enslave humans so their world can be replenished through the excavating of Earth's global resources. While unknown to those existing within the "Universe," an unfathomable all consuming threat is coming. The dimensional barriers have been breached and "Paradise" is no longer hidden. The lines between good and evil become blurred, as heroes rise to face the end of everything.#FLUX #IFluxWitIt www.flux-zodiac.com @flux_chaos facebook, instagram, twittereBook ISBN:   9781098314781Paperback ISBN:   9781098314774

  The Remarkable Rocket by Oscar Wilde was first published in 1888 in the anthology The Happy Prince and Other Tales, which, in addition 
  to its title story, also includes "The Nightingale and the Rose", "The Happy Prince", "The Selfish Giant" and "The Devoted Friend".
  This story concerns a Firework, who is one of many to be let off at the wedding of a prince and princess.
  He considers all of the other characters with whom he interacts, the other fireworks, a frog, a dragonfly and a duck, to be his inferiors and criticizes them for not paying sufficient attention to him. 
  The Rocket considers himself to be an unappreciated genius and firmly believes that he is destined for greatness. However, he fails to fulfill his only function, that of entertaining people by rising up into the air and 
  exploding in front of an audience.

  Wyllard's Weird

  A village in Cornwall is thrown into turmoil after a young girl falls from a train to her death. Was this an accident? Or murder? The mystery deepens when clues link the girl to a double homicide committed ten years earlier. Braddon's sensational novel takes us to the estates of aristocrats, the haunts of tabloid writers, the homes of Bohemian artists, and the dark alleyways of Paris. Braddon, one of Victorian England's best-selling novelists, is at the height of her powers in Wyllard's Weird. The novel shakes the foundations of 19th-century social order as it questions the sanctity of marriage and exposes the vices hidden beneath masks of gentility. First published in 1885, Wyllard's Weird has been for too long either out of print or available only in expensive facsimile editions. The novel holds an important place in literary history as it forecasts the appearance of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in 1886 and Sherlock Holmes in 1887.

  Vaccines have been used to safely introduce people's bodies to diseases for centuries, and they save millions of lives each year. By giving people a weakened or dead version of a disease, a vaccine allows the body to develop antibodies which recognize and fight the disease later on.
  
  Early vaccinations used dry scabs from smallpox to promote smallpox immunity. Doctors and scientists across nations took and improved the method, developing vaccines for health crises from whooping cough to polio to COVID-19. This graphic history features famous cases and current challenges, including the time frame for creating a new vaccine.
