Who Is An Enemy Of The Ants

Adventures among Ants

Intrepid international explorer, biologist, and photographer Mark W. Moffett, "the Indiana Jones of entomology," takes us around the globe on a strange and colorful journey in search of the hidden world of ants. In tales from Nigeria, Indonesia, the Amazon, Australia, California, and elsewhere, Moffett recounts his entomological exploits and provides fascinating details on how ants live and how they dominate their ecosystems through strikingly human behaviors, yet at a different scale and a faster tempo. Moffett’s spectacular close-up photographs shrink us down to size, so that we can observe ants in familiar roles; warriors, builders, big-game hunters, and slave owners. We find them creating marketplaces and assembly lines and dealing with issues we think of as uniquely human—including hygiene, recycling, and warfare. Adventures among Ants introduces some of the world’s most awe-inspiring species and offers a startling new perspective on the limits of our own perception. • Ants are world-class road builders, handling traffic problems on thoroughfares that dwarf our highway systems in their complexity • Ants with the largest societies often deploy complicated military tactics • Some ants have evolved from hunter-gatherers into farmers, domesticating other insects and growing crops for food

The Patriot’s Path

Sequel to the hit thriller "When Truth and Justice Die." While the United States reels in the wake of anarchy unleashed by Tymax and the amoral masses, the lives of Ferguson, Bauer, Isaac, and their fellow patriots are transformed by a mysterious set of documents. Tyranny gains a foothold and spreads like a disease across the land. The angel and the prophet strengthen the patriots' will and confirm the direction they must travel, but the enemy of freedom does not rest. The tyrant and his vassals grope for riches and power and strike a massive blow, but the patriots fight on, carrying the torch of freedom and striving to rescue our nation from the growing wave of oppression. Where will the patriot's path lead, and what will the outcome be? The destiny of freedom lies in the balance as the dwindling flame of patriotism ignites a journey of faith, a race against time, treachery, and the demon of human greed.
