![]() ![]() Meanwhile, flashes of dÉjà -vu keep Bourne in relative darkness. Hiding out in a hotel he kidnaps a lady doctor from Canada, then saves her from rape-death by his enemies she falls for him hard. Bourne is also a marked man-he's shot at before he even gets out of the bank-so once more he's on the lam. The patient eventually makes his way to Zurich, gets a look into his strange account, and finds that his name is Jason Bourne-and that he is associated with a phantom American corporation, Tread-stone Seventy-One. What's more, embedded on the patient's thigh is a microfiche of a numbered account at a Swiss bank. The head wound has left amnesia, but the doctor points out that subtle surgical scars show a completely revamped face: the patient had been on the run. Amid a storm at sea, a man is shot in the head and washes overboard-but he grabs onto a piece of wood, eventually is picked up by Greek fishermen, and is nursed back to health by a dipsomaniac doctor. ![]() ![]() Another dizzily preposterous Ludlum comic-strip full of hyperventilating characters, pell-mell intrigue, and barbarous prose. ![]()

![]() Lewis’s second book in the series, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, is more renowned for containing Christian morals and imagery (as well as being more popular in general, especially since it came to the big screen in 2005), however, The Silver Chair is full of Christian ethics and allusions to scripture that we can learn from. Though written for children, reading The Silver Chair as an adult revealed many concepts I’d missed when I read it years ago. ![]() As a child the book was a personal favorite of mine – I always appreciated its straightforward adventure plot (boy and girl set out to rescue an enchanted prince from an evil witch) and the haunting setting of Underland, a sunless kingdom beneath Narnia’s surface. I recently revisited my childhood and cracked open C.S Lewis’s The Silver Chair, the sixth book in his acclaimed Chronicles of Narnia series. ![]() ![]() ![]() Fiction 7.3 Time travel 6.3 Harry Potter (character) 4.4 Harry Potter 4.1 Fan fiction 4 Next Gen (film) 3.7 Order of the Phoenix (fictional organisation) 2.9 Ron Weasley 2.8 List of supporting Harry Potter characters 2.6 Ginny Weasley 2.3 Star Trek: The Next Generation 2.2 Scattered (Battlestar Galactica) 1.6 Anime 1.2 Chapter 1 (Legion) 1.2 Health (gaming) 1.1 Comics 0.9 Magical objects in Harry Potter 0.9 Chapter 1 (House of Cards) 0.8 Accidental travel 0.8 Romance novel 0.8 Frank Algernon Longbottom OC, 23 years old wont come until later. ![]() Edward "Teddy" Remus Lupin, 23 years old.

PDR: I think that's fair to complain about. So anyway, I was complaining to my local bartender about that. MG: No, there was nothing, so I just put it on the table, which is like, I feel a little rude. Would they cloak it or was there just nothing? Like, it's bad luck to put your purse on the floor. I was at the bar talking about how I went to a restaurant last week, and it was a pretty upscale place, but they didn't have a place for my bag. MG: Was I out? I go to my three local bars about a block away from me, so I don't know if that's considered going out. PDR: Were you out last night? I saw a tweet that you were at a bar that maybe did or didn't have a purse hook. Paul Dalla Rosa: So it's morning for you?

Two to the left, two to the right, the men were at one of the tables to the left. There were two other men playing pool at one of four pool tables. There was a man sitting on a corner stool at the long bar at the back of the room. Then I exhaled, got out of the car and walked right to the door, through the door, and into the bar. In it there was a sign that said "Help Wanted." In the little white space at the bottom of the sign was written, "Waitress." They probably didn't even have martini glasses. I looked back at the bar, which would seem was not high-class and not highbrow. There was a beat-up, old blue Chevy pickup parked at the edge of the parking lot. I looked back at the bar, which it would seem might be a bit of a biker bar. ![]() ![]() There were two Harley-Davidson motorcycles parked there.

Meanwhile, stevie is working on the secty's car but he wasn't finished with the brakes, and she takes it, and gets into a car accident.
