After being magically transported to another world with two other high school students, perennial outsider Billy Smith has become the unlikely king of a goblin civilization. With the help of his first day of high school crush, Lexi Aquino, now a powerful wizard, quarterback turned warrior Kurt Novac, and a cowardly but wily goblin named Hop, Billy has successfully repelled a human invasion of the goblins¿ underground city, Kiranok. But the leader of the attacking Hanorian Army, Lord Marshal Jiyal, has returned to the Hanorian capital, Gran Hanor, where he¿s preparing for a second invasion. Billy decides the only way to end the war is to neutralize Jiyal¿s powerful ally, a young wizard named Mig.

But after their departure, the Dark Lady, the mad elven wizard who started the war, reappears in Kiranok and reclaims her place as the goblins¿ leader. She coerces Lexi, whös struggling with madness from using too much magic, into helping her raise a skeletal army, then she and her Marching Dead force the goblins to march on Gran Hanor.

Focusing on the lives and relationships behind their magnificent careers, The Curies is the first biography to trace the entire Curie dynasty, from Pierre and Marie's fruitful union and achievements to the lives and accomplishments of their two daughters, Irèegrave;ne and Eve, and son-in-law Frederic Joliot-Curie. Biographer Denis Brian digs deep beneath the headlines and legends to reveal the Curies' multigenerational saga in its entirety, featuring new, never-before-published personal information as well as newly revealed correspondence and diary excerpts.

Family historians depend upon thousands of people unknown to them. They exchange research with others; copy information from books and databases; and write libraries, societies, and government offices. At times they even hire professionals to do legwork in distant areas and trust strangers to solve important problems. But how do family historians know they are producing or receiving trustworthy results? This official manual from the Board of Certification for Genealogists, essentially a users' guide for family historians, provides standards for genealogical researchers to assess their own and others' work. The revised second edition increases the clarity of DNA and privacy standards. Those standards are especially useful in the twenty-first century, when many genealogists use a complex new tool¿DNA testing¿and trace living people more often than they did in the past.
