The hard-rocking British supergroup was fronted by Steve Marriott,
possessor of what is generally regarded as one of the finest ever
rock and blue-eyed soul voices. They achieved global success in the
early 1970s and earned themselves a reputation as one of the best
live bands of the era. As fate would have it, however, this
enormous success was to be short-lived and the group initially
disbanded in 1975. There were to be subsequent reformations and
reunions, but the heady days of the early 1970s were not to be
repeated. Ultimately, rock music history books have tended to
somewhat overlook the band in favour of some of their
contemporaries – the likes of Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Faces,
Free and Bad Company – but Humble Pie’s influence on the rock
and metal bands that followed in their wake cannot be denied. This
book examines all of Humble Pie’s recorded output in detail –
album by album, track by track – covering every chapter of the
band’s musical story, from the early carefree and democratic days
of genre experimentation through to their halcyon period of
hard-rocking R&B. The various subsequent reformations and
reunions are also covered in detail, bringing the band’s story
bang up-to-date in the 21st century. Ultimately, this detailed
guide offers fans, old and new alike, a fully comprehensive look at
the band’s musical legacy.

Robert Day directs this British sci-fi horror. Manning the
experimental Y-13 aircraft, intrepid test pilot Dan Prescott (Bill
Edwards) flies deeper into space than any man before him. After
losing radio contact with mission control, and being bombarded by
mysterious cosmic rays, Dan's wrecked craft is recovered hours
later back on Earth with the pilot nowhere to be found. However, a
spate of gruesome attacks on cattle and then humans, by a
bloodthirsty creature, suggests Dan is still alive, if in a
somewhat changed form...

"'When in the city of the ancient ones, those from the endless
darkness shall step through the flaming gate, HE shall come, from
the shadows of the Dragons Wing, bearing the Eye and Horn of the
Dragon. The land will sing with his passing and they will know fear
that oppose him, for he is the Lord of the skies and protector of
the Realm.'": The Child's Prophecy. T.E. 2147
The land of Kil'Tar has a long and bloody history of war between
the Kay'taari and the Ashar'an. Aided by Dragonkind, the Kay'taari
have protected the world against the Ashar'an and their demonic
followers for many centuries. With demonkind banished to the Voids,
and the Ashar'an all but destroyed, Kil'Tar has enjoyed an era of
peace.
However, the seals binding the portals to the voids are failing,
and the Ashar'an are abroad once again. Both the Kay'taari and
Dragonkind are nowhere to be found on Kil'Tar.
Can Valdieron, a young man raised in the small village of
Shadowvale, fulfill his destiny and rid the lands of this menace
once and for all, or will he falter, and condemn Kil'Tar to demonic
destruction?

Heading South toward Dak'mar, he hopes to discover more about his
heritage and recover pieces of the Artifact, while continuing to
harness his own abilities in the Dream Plane of Kel'Valor.
With the Demon Hordes massing, and Assassins dogging his every
move, will he have enough time to re-form the Disk which will lock
the Demons within the Voids once more?
