Book excerpt: Branded a traitor, Althir of Glengowyn has resigned himself to life as an outcast from his people—until he’s offered a chance at redemption. A suicide mission that will finally put an end to the Sinnale war. His companion on the journey is a human woman unlike any he’s ever encountered. Beautiful. Brave. Fascinating. And before he knows it, keeping her safe is more important than his own salvation. Mina Dawnswealth’s talent for spycraft has kept her alive even as her dreams—and her family—have fallen victim to the war, one by one. Much as she hates the idea of helping the traitor elf, at least she gets the pleasure of burying a knife in his back should he decide to betray her people again. A much easier task if she didn’t find him so damned compelling. Only when they’re beyond the point of no return do they discover just how much blood their mission will cost. And how much love it will take to overcome their pasts for a chance at a future together. Publisher's Note: This book was previously published as WARRIOR’S DAWN.

Clare O’Malley’s ambitions have brought her to the very top of her field, a profession that requires her to lie and keep secrets even from those she loves.

Then a threat from Raf’s past rises up to strike, and an already dangerous mission turns deadly. Facing their ghosts and this new threat to the galaxy will take everything they’ve got. And nothing will ever be the same for Raf or Clare. But if they can survive, without starting a rebellion, they might just find a way to love each other.

Download or read book Acceptable words written by Jeffrey Wainwright and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geoffrey Hill has said that some great poetry 'recognises that words fail us'. These essays explore Hill's struggle over fifty years with the recalcitrance of language. This book seeks to show how all his work is marked by the quest for the right pitch of utterance whether it is sorrowing, angry, satiric or erotic. It shows how Hill's words are never lightly 'acceptable' but an ethical act, how he seeks out words he can stand by - words that are 'getting it right'. This book is the most comprehensive and up-to-date critical work on Geoffrey Hill so far, covering all his work up to ‘Scenes from Comus’ (2005), as well as some poems yet to appear in book form. It aims to contribute something to the understanding of his poetry among those who have followed it for many years and students and other readers encountering this major poet for the first time.
