Истории Vesuvius

A 13 year old female slave taking care of upper class children, wishing for a better life.

The story takes place about twelve years before the events of Murder in-absentia in Egretia, during 63 BCE in Rome (just after the events of Catilina's Riddle by Steven Saylor), and in 79 AD in Rome (A couple of years after Lindsey Davis' Nemesis). It offers a glimpse into how Felix became who he is. This story is fan-fiction. Gordianus the Finder is © Steven Saylor, Marcus Didius Falco is © Lindsey Davis. Both are used without permission but with much love and admiration.

The Doctor is back to save yet another soul from the wrath of Mount Vesuvius, but what else is in store for dear Irina?

A fiction short story I wrote about the destruction of Pompeii.

Three kaiju, one fight. This clash of epic proportions is brought to you by the minds of @thetruebioman and @oligatorade999 (on Instagram) and written by @joel_1_Robinson (also on instagram) Auraka: A heavyweight kaiju who can shatter the Earth's crust and swim freely in the planet's lava filled veins. Vesuvius and Novarupta: A pair of kaiju each powerful in their own right. These two fiery lovers each have immense destructive power within them and have fought numerous kaiju to defend their children. Who will win? Read the story to find out!

Pliny sends another piece of paper flying across the room. He just doesn't seem to get the words quite right. It was only yesterday his crush asked him to write down the story of his uncle's death. No big deal, you would say, but the problem is that his crush did not ask him out of interest. He is working on his new book, about history. Pliny's uncle died in one of the most tragic disasters to ever occur on Earth and Tacitus has asked him for a more detailed description. It seems hard, almost impossible, for Pliny to ever tell Tacitus how he feels. It's why he wants to write the perfect letter, with cliffhanger, because then maybe Tacitus would reach out to him again

How can you love an outlaw? What risks do you assume for love? What hidden metaphor do people find in the merciless eruption of Italy's most famous volcano?

Failure to fork over your grandfather's priceless heirlooms results in getting yourself captured by the Mafia, who threatens to have Vesuvius deal with you. There's only one slight problem... Vesuvius isn't a volcano, he's human, and if he's also a member of the Italian Mafia, you may be in as much trouble as if he were one of the world's most dangerous volcanoes.

"You know how, in 'Eat, Pray, Love,' 'Under the Tuscan Sun,' 'An Italian Affair' and all those other memoirs? Women go to Italy to put their lives back together." I said this to Jenny over our first gourmet Mac and Cheese planning meeting. "Well, let's go and have a delicious time because there is nothing wrong. Because we are happy with our lives, well-loved, and healthy." "Let's make it our plan," said Jenny, "to stuff our eyes with art, and our bodies with good food. Let's gain ten pounds." "It's a deal," I said. "Ten days, ten pounds" ----------- Thank you to my thousand readers-or peekers-who checked out my memoir-in-progress. Wattpad was a wonderful trial platform to expand on the misadventures first recorded in the blog, http://kristenandjennygotoitaly.com, which is still up and you are welcome to take a peek. I'm taking this draft down and polishing it from a solid midway draft into a delicious and memorable read about the unexpected feelings, brushes with death, and awakenings that unfold when you think you've got life figured out. If you like horses and hiking, pasta and paintings, shoes and shopping, fantasy and friendship, please 'like' the book on Facebook @10D10P. There, you can learn more about the characters (real people) and the beauty we value, listen to sample chapters, and follow my journey to publication. And sometime, if you've got a bottle of prosecco open, you might tune in to the Ten Days, Ten Pounds playlist on Spotify and imagine yourself walking cobbled streets with a best friend. www.tinyurl.com/10D10Pmusic All rights reserved.

In 79 AD, the eruption of Mount Vesuvius killed thousands of people. It started out as day turning to night. Then a storm of rocks. Soon a place of toxic air. And then a home of death. --- Aquila Hilaris knew something was wrong since the ground beneath her started shaking. She knew that something was wrong when it started raining rocks. She knew something was wrong when the magma came sliding down the cliffs...

The sad tale of the fall of Ancient Rome's daughter,Pompeii.

This is a collection of short stories that I wrote in the form of legends or myths. I hope you enjoy!

As the Roman city of Pompeii is consumed by the fires of Mt. Vesuvius, a loan Centurion contemplates his last moments of life as he waits for death to take him.

A document purporting to be a new translation of four of Pliny the Younger’s letters to Tacitus, outlining the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 A.D. and the subsequent banishment of both Plinies, with notes by the translator. This is a submission for the Spring 2013 Historical Fiction smackdown, round 4. The theme this round was ALTERNATE HISTORY, so a big chunk of the described events never happened. PLEASE do not assume that anything you read here is historically accurate – though much of it is, much of it is not! Words: 2830 Time period: Ancient Rome Video Selected: ‘Pompeii’

Title: Escape from the Fury of Vesuvius In the bustling ancient city of Pompeii, the sun was shining brightly, and life seemed ordinary. Among its diverse inhabitants were several families, each with their own hopes, dreams, and fears. n a journey through the boundless cosmos-a journey of unity, of stories, of eternal connections that defied time and space, and of a symphony that would forever resonate through the heart of all existence.

One early morning on May 29th, 2016 (I think it was May 29th) 5th, 6th, and 7th grade gifted students were getting ready to go on a trip. It was going to be a fun small trip that most of us would easily forget. But things took a turn, and made the trip too unforgettable to even be possible to forget.

A little rant I thought you readers might find amusing.

This story is about a boy named Joseph and his family escaping Pompeii. This is a short historical fiction that I made so the family may not be real, because I was not there when Vesuvius erupted 2,000 years ago! I got the important details that I worked into this story about Pompeii. Pompeii is a real town in Italy that was rediscovered and excavated between the late 1700s and today. 1/3 of Pompeii is still under ash today so that artifacts and art will be preserved for the future. If you complain about historical times, I will not listen because this is HISTORICAL FICTION which means it's based on real events. Three other cities fell to Vesuvius's pyroclastic ash clouds. That means that Vesuvius literally exploded. Anyone here have gone to the Philadelphia Franklin Institute's Pompeii Exhibit earlier in February 2014? Hope you enjoyed this book! :)
