Download or read book The Adventures of Eddie the Elf written by Julie Toth and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-10-07 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publishing company has asked me why I wanted to write this book. It is really quite simple. One, I love little children! I love to watch them absorb new lessons and then think about them and apply them as they grow. Secondly, I absolutely love Christmas! I love what it stands for and all the happiness it generates. Theres an old saying that goes Life has a way of getting in the way. That is so true. I have wanted to write this book since I was about twenty. I am now sixty-six! First, you go to work, then you get married, and then children come along. Of course, we had our share of furry and feathered children. At last count, I have had sixteen dogs, three cats, and eight birds. Oh, yes, and then there was Wiggles, our rabbit. Did I mention that I also have two sons and two beautiful granddaughters? They are all of the human variety of course. But Eddie was always in the back of my mind. Its strange that he would usually pop up in the summer of all times! I think it was because we used to have a big garden and Mother Nature was always good to us. We would give our neighbors some of our bounty of tomatoes, peppers, and garlic. That, in a way, was like Christmas because it was like giving them presents. Instead of Eddie, we were the elves for Mother Nature, and she was Santa. There are so many marvelous things in the world, Christmas being one of my favorites. I hope that, when you read my book, you will learn a lot more about where the elves and Santa live. It really is a beautifully happy and busy place. Happy reading and imagining!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rejected by their own kind for bearing the mark of the Shadow Monarch, the Iron Elves chose instead to serve with the human armies of the Calahrian Empire, hoping through their dedication and discipline to wipe out the stain of their birth. Their reputation is legendary -- until their commander, Konowa Swiftdragon, takes it upon himself -- for the best of reasons -- to assassinate the Viceroy. Court-martialled and exiled to the forest he despises, his beloved regiment disgraced, dishonoured and disbanded, Konowa finds himself suddenly recalled and ordered to re-form the Iron Elves for one last reconnaissance mission. But the new Iron Elves are not at all the same as they were before, and the mission is a suicidal one, with more at stake than Konowa could possibly have imagined. For the Shadow Monarch and her allies have harnessed destructive forces with the power to tear worlds apart -- and those who bear her mark have a destiny greater than they know. So begins an heroic journey in the company of a motley band of misfits, rebels and outcasts, with a central character whose engaging, brilliantly realised blend of cynicism, dry humour, duty and anguish make him unlike any other in fantasy fiction.

Download or read book The Little Book of the Hidden People written by Alda Sigmundsdóttir and published by Little Books Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-21 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Icelandic folklore is rife with tales of elves and hidden people that inhabited hills and rocks in the landscape. But what do those elf stories really tell us about the Iceland of old and the people who lived there? In this book, author Alda Sigmundsdóttir presents twenty translated elf stories from Icelandic folklore, along with fascinating notes on the context from which they sprung. The international media has had a particular infatuation with the Icelanders’ elf belief, generally using it to propagate some kind of “kooky Icelanders” myth. Yet Iceland’s elf folklore, at its core, reflects the plight of a nation living in abject poverty on the edge of the inhabitable world, and its people’s heroic efforts to survive, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. That is what the stories of the elves, or hidden people, are really about. In a country that was, at times, virtually uninhabitable, where poverty was endemic and death and grief a part of daily life, the Icelanders nurtured a belief in a world that existed parallel to their own. This was the world of the hidden people, which more often than not was a projection of the most fervent dreams and desires of the human population. The hidden people lived inside hillocks, cliffs, or boulders, very close to the abodes of the humans. Their homes were furnished with fine, sumptuous objects. Their clothes were luxurious, their adornments beautiful. Their livestock was better and fatter, their sheep yielded more wool than regular sheep, their crops were more bounteous. They even had supernatural powers: they could make themselves visible or invisible at will, and they could see the future. To the Icelanders, stories of elves and hidden people are an integral part of the cultural and psychological fabric of their nation. They are a part of their identity, a reflection of the struggles, hopes, resilience, and endurance of their people. What you will read about in The Little Book of the Hidden People: • The fascination in the international media: why are they so obsessed with elves? • The meaning of elf: what do hidden people stories tell us about the psyche of the Icelanders of old? • The elves' badassery—they could make or break your fortune so you’d better be nice! • The ljúflingar ... hidden men who became the lovers of mortal women • Glamorous and regal: why were the elves so damn good-looking? • The grim realities: what do scholars believe about all those children abducted by elves? ... and so much more!
