Uranus is the Latinized form of Ouranos (Οὐρανός), the Greek word for sky. In Greek mythology Uranus is personified as the son and husband of Gaia, Mother Earth (Hesiod, Theogony). Ouranos and Gaia were ancestors of most of the Greek gods.

Well... I was allready aware of that. That's why "Gaia" was the name of my hovercraft.

Like the short novella The Stone Pilot, this book was written especially for World Book Day. It follows the story of the character Quint, a young sky pirate on board his father's flying ship, and his first ever sky battle.

It is interesting to note that this book is chronologically the very first book in the Edge Chronicles series."

A siege is a military blockade and assault of a city or fortress with the intent of conquering by force or attrition. A siege occurs when an attacker encounters a city or fortress that refuses to surrender and cannot be easily taken by a frontal assault. Sieges usually involve surrounding the target and blocking the provision of supplies, typically coupled with siege engines, artillery bombardment, or sapping (also known as mining) to reduce fortifications.

This after getting redirected from "Sieges". Heh, and I'm not much of a fighter. really.

For other uses, see Baku (disambiguation).

Baku (獏 or 貘) is the name of a fantastic beast in Japanese folklore, originally from China. It is usually depicted as a squat, trunked creature, vaguely resembling the tapir with which it shares its name in Japanese. It is often described in chimeric terms. Today the most common description gives it the body of a bear, the legs of a tiger, the nose of an elephant, the tail of an ox, and the eyes of a rhinoceros, but other descriptions exist, such as one from ancient China pegging it as a goat-like animal with nine tails, four ears, and eyes on its back.

The baku is a benevolent beast, credited in China with a general ability to ward off evil, but it has become best known for its ability to devour human nightmares and the bad luck that accompanies them. People waking up from bad dream may call out to the baku for help, repeating three times "I give my dream to the baku to eat," or a similar phrase. The creature's image is considered an auspicious ornamentation for bedroom accoutrements, and was once painted in gold lacquer on the pillows of nobility.

The baku is also considered capable of devouring the evil spirits which cause plague and disease, and sleeping on the skin of one is said to keep away sickness and bad luck.
