Download or read book Changer s Daughter written by Jane Lindskold and published by Obsidian Tiger Inc. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published under the title Legends Walking, here is the sequel to Lindskold’s award-winning novel Changer. A few months have gone by since the events in Changer and times they are a-changing. Arthur is forced to cope without either of his strong right hands. Eddie has taken off for Africa with his good friend Anson A. Kridd. Vera is experimenting with life as a mermaid in uncharted ocean realms. Shahrazad the coyote pup―now confirmed as athanor, although her ultimate potential remains unknown―is taken by her father, the Changer, to Frank MacDonald’s Other Three Quarters ranch. To her father’s dismay, she shows no sign of acquiring the caution she needs if she is to survive. Meanwhile, aware that Arthur’s firm control of the Accord has been weakened, various forces seek to take advantage. Some―like Lilith, Tommy Thunderburst and the satyrs merely wish to assert the right to mingle with humanity, but others have far more ambitious―and sinister―motives. In Nigeria, someone representing himself as Shopona, God of Smallpox, has released his scourge into the city of Monamona. Confronting him is a woman who says she is Oya, an ancient and powerful goddess. Is Oya athanor or something else entirely? Certainly she is playing fast and loose with the secret that is the heart of Arthur’s Accord and is not to be entirely trusted. And what of the wind that encases Monamona in a protective grasp that is also a prison? In the end, even the Changer must take sides―leaving Shahrazad, his wildly unpredictable daughter, to find her strengths without his ancient wisdom to guide her. Extras! This edition includes both a new introduction by the author and the complete text of “Witches’-broom, Apple Soon,” an athanor short story originally published in the anthology Faerie Tales.

Download or read book From Dasarajna to Kuruksetra written by Kanad Sinha and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-24 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it true that the ancient Indians had no sense of History? The book begins with this question, and points out how the ways of perceiving the past could be culture-specific and how the concept of historical traditions can be useful in studying the various ways of memorising and representing the past, even if those ways do not necessarily correspond to the methodology of the Occidental discipline called 'History'. Ancient India had several historical traditions, and the book focuses on one of them, the itihasa. It also shows how the Mahabharata is the best illustration of this tradition, and how a historical study of the contents of the text, with comparison with and corroboration from other contemporary sources and traditions, may help us restore the text in its original context in the bardic historical tradition about the Later Vedic Kurus. Is the Mahabharata then an authentic history? This book does not claim so. However, it shows how the text had originated as a critical reflection on a great period of transition, how it dealt with the conflicting philosophies of the transitional period, how it propounded its thesis by creating new kinds of heroes such as Yudhisthira and Krsna, and how the text was reworked when it was canonized by the brahmanas.
