![]() I am already invested in the world, I know the backstory, and I have an idea of where I would like the adventure to go. The familiarity of the sequel is comforting. I love a summer sequel getting reacquainted with some old friends, making some new ones and just enjoying the time spent together. Overall, despite some repetition in the plot, this was a gripping book that I didn't want to put down with flawed but good-hearted characters, intense scenes, and a unique, complex post-apocalyptic world! ![]() *SPOILER* It was funny, he made up a story about how the hell divers were planning to kill him, even though they weren't, but, in a sort of self-fulfilling prophecy kind of way, they did all want to kill him by the end. If you like a good hate-able antagonist to root against, you won't be disappointed. He liked to pretend he had the best interests of all the people on the ship at heart, but most of his decisions were actually as selfish as selfish can get. There was also Captain Jordan instead of Captain Ash this time, and JORDAN WAS AN AWFUL PERSON. And for anyone who has finished Book 1 but is unsure about whether to continue because of the ending, *SPOILER* he survived! And although he did not make an appearance in this book, aside from the prologue, he is presumed to still be alive, and it seems likely he'll make an appearance again in Book 3. I've read a lot of books lately in which all the third person POVs sounded the same, but I never found myself getting confused about whose POV I was in while reading this book. I admit I was disappointed to find out X wouldn't be a main character in this one since, to put it simply, his character was awesome, but all the hell diver POV characters were just as unique and well-written. There was one major difference between this book and the first one though, and that was the main characters. But the things that did happen were significant, some info was found that shed more light on the world and the creatures, and it seems as though a lot of interesting stuff is going to happen in the next book. It seemed kind of repetitive (the ship was falling apart, hell divers had to go on dangerous missions, the surface was filled with mutated monsters that tried to kill them, etc.), and even though it did eventually start getting to the secrets mentioned in the blurb, it still seems like little actually happened plot-wise. I felt like this book suffered a bit from middle book syndrome though. In short-these books are so well thought-out and well-written, and there is so much to love about them. The concept of the airship and the hell divers is such a unique one (I mean, come on, just look at the kick-butt suit on the cover). The characters are all flawed and gruff, but most of them are still likeable and good people. The world-building in this series is incredible and really makes me feel like I'm there, especially on the bleak, terrifying surface. Much like the first book, this was an intense, gripping post-apocalyptic read. This is a fun, fast-paced read and it sets the stage for a big, wild, head-long race to the finish in next year's Deliverance. Hell Divers II: Ghosts has all this, plus a few new wrinkles to broaden the scope of the overarching Hell Divers story. If you've been reading Smith's work for any length of time, then you'll know what to expect here - lots of frenetic military action and plenty of high-stakes adventure set against a high concept sci-fi backdrop, with plenty of horrifying, bloodthirsty monsters thrown into the mix. As certain factions aboard the Hive get closer to uncovering his lies, Captain Jordan will go to any lengths to keep those secrets hidden, including betraying the Hell Divers. Aboard the Hive are four hundred souls, the last of a very nearly extinct human race.Īdding to the stakes in Ghosts are a duplicitous captain seeking to keep secret the truth of what waits below on the devastated planet. ![]() Adding to the importance of each mission is the unstated fact that humanity itself depends on their success. This elite squad of future soldiers are constantly searching for parts to keep the Hive afloat and in one piece, a task easier said than done for a centuries old airship that has seen far better days. Set ten years after the shocking ending of volume one in this trilogy, the Hell Divers continue to deploy from their airship to explore the poisoned, desolate remains of an uninhabitable Earth. Readers of the first Hell Divers novel will feel right at home with Ghosts, Smith's follow-up to last year's hit. ![]()

Three holes cut in each element are designed to act as wind "spoilers," reducing air current vibrations. It was also welded at the top to the pipe. The lowest of the elements, B stands 41 feet tall in the Pine Street median strip. Element B was welded to Element C before Element A was erected. A is 45 feet high it weighs 13,500 pounds.

It was erected first with a 10-inch diameter steel pipe connected to its vertical edge.

Each element's foot is anchored with eight bolts to a base plate. Each caisson, or concrete "root", is three and one-half feet in diameter and 21 and one-half feet deep. Located 614 feet east of Kirk Road, the sculpture's legs are bolted to concrete caissons. Mike Mascione of Architectual Services inspected the finished product. Handling welding assignments were Jim Forester, weld shop foreman and Gerald Knauf, machinist. Jerry Peterson, Machine Shop foreman, made tooling, did layout work and cut elements. Working from Wilson's concept, drawings were done by former Laboratory designer Tom Pawlak, now with Argonne National Laboratory. The plates, acquired by Fermilab in 1972, are also used to provide thick absorbers of radiation in the experimental areas.Ī two-week erection effort wound up last week under the guidance of Architectual Services' Gerda Pajic, project leader, and Marv Warner, department head. ![]() Wilson decided to utilize some steel deck plate from the USS Princeton - as an expression of the "swords into plowshares" use at Fermilab of the thick iron plates of which the battleship had been made. However, when viewed from directly above the center, or directly below, the arch again appears to be perfectly symmetrical." "The more basic underlying threefold symmetry is perfect at the base, but deteriorates with height and is completely broken at the top of the arch. "The twofold mirror symmetry about the east leg, indicated by the red and the black, is nearly perfect," Dr. Wilson has freely adopted the style of the sculptor Alexander Calder to exemplify the notions of symmetry and symmetry-breaking that are so important in the physics of elementary particles studied at Fermilab. It rises 50 feet above the road at its apex. The tri-span sculpture, entitled "Broken Symmetry", tips the scales at about 42,000 pounds-21 tons.

![]() ![]() Vaping isn’t quite as bad for your voice, but it won’t do it any good either, so is best avoided too. With that in mind, try to avoid excessive strenuous shouting, screaming or yelling and give up cigarettes if you’re a smoker. Prevention is of course always better than cure. It can be the result of a variety of conditions, however, the most common cause of hoarseness is laryngitis. This comes with anything from mild vocal cord irritation through to vocal cord injury. ![]() You may experience alternating pitch and volume, often quite sudden and out of your control. This abnormal change in the voice causes a gruff, overly husky, weak or raspy tone. Whether it’s something you’re experiencing just in the short term like a cold, or you suspect you may have an underlying condition, read on to find out what to do about your hoarse vocals.
