What would you do if you disappear into the earth’s Core to find a new civilization? A civilization with plans to use you, to annihilate humanity? What if it was too late to realize that you were taking bullets for the one behind the trigger? Would you sacrifice what you must-who you must? How will you choose between what you know, and what you feel? “I can’t live a lie. I can’t run from my life.” Jacelyn and the Cruman Prince and the Mantlanian Princess choose to stand and fight. To change what must be changed, save what must be saved...and destroy what must be destroyed in the Earth. Will they remain like stars that never saw the sky? Or will they become legends whose names will never die?

This is a discount Black and white version. Some images may be unclear, please see BCCampus website for the digital version.This book was born out of a 2014 meeting of earth science educators representing most of the universities and colleges in British Columbia, and nurtured by a widely shared frustration that many students are not thriving in courses because textbooks have become too expensive for them to buy. But the real inspiration comes from a fascination for the spectacular geology of western Canada and the many decades that the author spent exploring this region along with colleagues, students, family, and friends. My goal has been to provide an accessible and comprehensive guide to the important topics of geology, richly illustrated with examples from western Canada. Although this text is intended to complement a typical first-year course in physical geology, its contents could be applied to numerous other related courses.
