In Richard III’s Bodies from Medieval England to Modernity, Jeffrey Wilson tracks disability over 500 years, from Richard’s own manuscripts, early Tudor propaganda, and x-rays of sixteenth-century paintings through Shakespeare’s soliloquies, into Samuel Johnson’s editorial notes, the first play produced by an African American Theater company, Freudian psychoanalysis, and the rise of disability theater.

Even in a family of strong individualists like the Ryans, Kyle has stood out as a lone wolf. For years he's gone his own way, joining the DIA rather than the CIA, and disagreeing with his father's politics. Now he's missing in an African country on the brink of a coup. His last message to his handlers, "We're on the wrong side of history." His father, the President of the United States, is about to discover which is more important to him: the interests of his country or the life of his son?

US intelligence says there's something going on in Russia. While their land forces have been decimated by corruption and incompetence, the Navy seems to be pouring money into some secret project. Analysts are stumped, until the knot is untangled by one particularly bright young woman at the Office of Naval Intelligence - Katie Ryan, the youngest daughter of President Jack Ryan. Like her father, she sees patterns where other don't, and she's determined that the Russians are about to launch a super missile sibmarine, the Belgorod.

Nach einem Terroranschlag gerät das Leben von John Dempsey, Mitglied der Navy-SEAL-Eliteeinheit Tier One, völlig aus den Fugen. Aus der Welt strikter Hierarchien und klarer Anweisungen verschlägt es ihn in das dubiose Reich der Spionage und geheimen Einsätze. Seine Mission ist klar und simpel: Er soll die Verantwortlichen für die größte Tragödie in der Geschichte der U.S. Special Operation jagen und vor Gericht bringen. Und es ist egal, wo auf der Welt sie sich verkriechen.

To survive the notorious prison IK-2 and assassinate Russian President Vladimir Petrov, John Dempsey had to become rosomakha, the wolverine. Now, back home in America, he’s trying to put the pieces of his life at Ember back together. But which man returned from Russia—Dempsey, or the wolverine? From the way his teammates look at him, it’s obvious they’re not sure, and neither is he. Meanwhile, Vice President Kelso Jarvis has barely had time to mourn the death of his mentor before a devastating attack reveals a new threat.

US intelligence is reporting turmoil in the Russian navy. Their deadliest submarine, the Belgorod, has unexpectedly launched, and taken along with it a long list of questions. Who authorized the departure? What mission is it on? And, most disturbing of all, what weapons do the giant doors on the sub’s bow hide? It's been four decades since a similar incident with the Soviet sub, Red October, ended happily, thanks to a young CIA analyst named Jack Ryan.

Lieutenant Keith “Chunk” Redman is no stranger to uncertainty. It’s what they train for in the Tier One. But when President Kelso Jarvis tells Gold Squadron the shocking news—that the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia has been murdered, the King is missing, and the House of Saud has framed two Mossad agents—it’s clear the Middle East has become a powder keg just waiting to explode.

Julian wants more than anything to be like every other kid—skateboard, hang out with friends, have sleepovers, and tease his little brother and sister. But Julian has a special gift, one which, to him, feels more of a curse. In his dreams, he is visited by spirits who tell him things—sometimes very important things. He has called these “tell-you” dreams since he was little, and he knows now to keep them secret, ever since one such dream came true when the little Mendes girl down the street was murdered in her basement.

John Dempsey und sein Ember-Team müssen den islamischen Extremisten Al-Mahadscher aufspüren. Der Terrorist will dem Großen Satan (den Amerikanern) durch eine Serie von hinterhältigen Anschlägen zeigen, dass man in diesem Land nirgendwo mehr sicher ist. Von den Wüsten des Iraks über den Dschungel Guatemalas bis in die US-Vorstädte kämpft das Team gegen die Zeit. Doch für John geht es um mehr als die Rettung von Menschenleben: In einer der bedrohten Städte leben seine Frau und sein Sohn.

Every word a president utters is weighed and examined, but none more so than when he is talking about Taiwan. That's why it's shocking that President Jack Ryan seems to imply that the US has no appetite for a war to protect Taiwan from the communist Chinese on the mainland. President Ryan is determined to protect the independence of the island nation, but he is determined that one slip of the tongue should not cost thousands of young soldiers, sailors and Marines their lives.

Der ehemalige Navy SEAL Jedidiah Johnson beginnt in Nashville seine Ausbildung bei den Elitekämpfern der Shepherds. Schon als er in der hochmodernen Einrichtung ankommt, hat Jed Visionen von einem drohenden Angriff. Und er hört Gerüchte über Nicholas Woland. Ein Name, der in der Organisation Angst und Wut auslöst. Woland hat die Shepherds und alles, wofür sie stehen, verraten. Nach Jahren im Gefängnis ist Woland begierig darauf, wieder Chaos und Tod zu verbreiten. Er will nicht weniger als einen weltweiten Religionskrieg auslösen.

Kurz vor seiner Pensionierung erhält Navy SEAL Jedidiah Johnson einen verzweifelten Anruf. Die Tochter seines Freundes David wurde gekidnappt. Außer der Leiche eines Priesters, die am Tatort zurückgelassen wurde, gibt es keine Spuren. Natürlich will Jed helfen. Doch schon kurz nach seiner Ankunft wird ein Mordanschlag auf ihn verübt. Und dann erwachen sie wieder: die Stimmen in seinem Kopf, die seltsamen Visionen, die Albträume. Er hatte geglaubt, all das hinter sich gelassen zu haben, als er mit 18 Jahren in die Navy floh.
