Igor Troitski

Publisher: Accent Graphics Communications

Summary

The book about the laser steps made by me to be in my house on Dancing Cloud Ave. The reader will learn how the geographical center of the USSR was opened, and how the son of the Minister of Defense, drunk from the sound of pouring vodka, supervised the construction of the first Russian laser locator. Together with the academicians, the reader will visit to the military laser training ground and see how the helicopter falls when the laser beam hits its air intake. The reader will be able to observe how the two Russian Nobel laureates, the inventors of the laser, hated each other and find out how both deputies of the General Designer, who worked on the creation of military laser systems, died. The reader will be introduced to the Confessions of a Colonel of the State Security Committee, Deputy General Designer for the regime of secrecy. Finally, the reader will learn how an unexpected event helped me move from creating laser weapons systems to working on new laser medical devices, such as laser punches, and fine arts, such as holograms and laser volumetric images in transparent materials.

The Teton Bunch - A Western Trio

Les Savage

“Town of Twenty Triggers” opens this new trio of short novels by Les Savage Jr., marking their first appearance in book form. He was known only as the Joker, a portly, chuckling man with a bland smile, a poker face, and an amazing ability to make a deck of cards perform any trick he desired. His traveling companion is Emmet Pierce, a Texan fast with his gun. When this duo arrives in the small ranching town of Benton, the Joker is ready to take it over and claim it for his own. He begins by winning ownership of the Palace, the largest gambling hall in town. The twenty guns of the title describe the gunslingers the Joker hires to enforce his hold on the town. The only thing the Joker overlooks in his fiendish plans is that Emmet Pierce is a man with a moral conscience.
The Pacific Railroad in “Where Hell’s Coyotes Howl” wants to build their spur line from Santa Fe to Tucson and they want the right of way through Apache Gap, the only passage through the Tanques Verdes.

The strong man in Tucson is Face Card Farrow who has enough secret evidence against the wealthy and powerful to get his own way. When Face Card is murdered, it is discovered that most of his papers have gone missing. Amid all of this turmoil, matters are brought to the point of crisis when Laramie Drake, owner of the Double Deuces Ranch, saves teenage Midge Lawrence from a whipping by her court-appointed guardian, Eben Hazard. Although Laramie has no legal right to keep Midge with him, Midge wants to stay, a situation complicated by the fact that Midge becomes the focus of all the factions because she is believed to own the deed to Apache Gap.

In twelve striking, luminescent stories, author Morgan Talty—with searing humor, abiding compassion, and deep insight—breathes life into tales of family and a community as they struggle with a painful past and an uncertain future. A boy unearths a jar that holds an old curse, which sets into motion his family’s unraveling; a man, while trying to swindle some pot from a dealer, discovers a friend passed out in the woods, his hair frozen into the snow; a grandmother suffering from Alzheimer’s projects the past onto her grandson; and two friends, inspired by Antiques Roadshow, attempt to rob the tribal museum for valuable root clubs.  
  
A collection that examines the consequences and merits of inheritance, Night of the Living Rez is an unforgettable portrayal of an Indigenous community and marks the arrival of a standout talent in contemporary fiction.
