Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets out to do something never attempted before: to teach the language of the fearsome dragons. Is this serious? Yes it is. This language, called Srínawésin, which has a depth and complexity of any human language and is as rich as the fabled dragons themselves. The author has written this primer based on notes from a man who claimed to get his information from several actual dragons; Bloody Face, Moonchild, Ash Tongue, Frost Song, Black Honey, Owl Claw and others. Do these notes, found in the linguistics department of NYU, actually describe a real language that real dragons speak? Even the author does not know. But this book, arranged in a matter of thirty lessons that build from basic concepts and sounds to more and more complex sentences and thoughts, requires no previous knowledge or ability of foreign languages. All a reader needs is the desire to learn and the open mindedness to believe, even for a moment, the tongue of these fascinating creatures. Each chapter has exercises to test the basic grammatical concepts dealt therein as well as the lore, culture, history and worldview of dragons. Young or old, language-savvy or not, this book is written to all those that think, feel and believe that the powerful beasts that live in every corner of the world and in every mythology, might have a culture and language that they are proud of and which is not seen through the lens of human thoughts and biases. They have an oral literature as deep as any human culture, with a language, songs, stories, poems, riddles and history that is as ancient as it is alien. This book is the first of a two-part series covering basic and advanced concepts as well as a dictionary and thesaurus of Srínawésin, the Reader, Dictionary and Thesaurus . You are only Thirty lessons away from learning the Dragon Tongue!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Segorian Anderson’s an Idiot. But that’s fine with him. It’s a well paying job with no heavy lifting. Nobody ever remembers Segorian. It isn’t magic—he just has the sort of face his own mother could forget, and she’s been trying to for years. But being forgettable is a job requirement for an Idiot. No, he's not the Court Jester. He doesn’t wear motley (whatever motley may be). That's a different union. He’s the Idiot. In a Queen’s castle, wine spilt down the wrong dress can lead to war, so someone unimportant has to be blamed for it. That’s the Idiot’s job. He’s the Idiot that did it, for any value of ‘it’. Of course, as soon as he’s exiled-for-life out of the castle gate, he uses his back-door key and sneaks back in. But that's not all. Someday, something really bad will happen. Really, really bad. Badder than a bad thing on a very bad day with extra badness. When the world’s about to end (or the washing up won’t get done—whichever comes first), who you gonna call? No, not them. They haven’t been invented yet. You call the Idiot, someone nobody will miss if things don’t work out. And now Peladon has a case of dragon. But the dragon may be the easy part. Segorian has woman trouble, and he’s the only person in the castle who doesn’t know it. Because to Segorian, women are an open book. The problem is, he never learned to read…

Download or read book Dragons Serpents and Slayers in the Classical and Early Christian Worlds written by Daniel Ogden and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-08 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories about dragons, serpents, and their slayers make up a rich and varied tradition within ancient mythology and folklore. In this sourcebook, Daniel Ogden presents a comprehensive and easily accessible collection of dragon myths from Greek, Roman, and early Christian sources. Some of the dragons featured are well known: the Hydra, slain by Heracles; the Dragon of Colchis, the guardian of the golden fleece overcome by Jason and Medea; and the great sea-serpent from which Perseus rescues Andromeda. But the less well known dragons are often equally enthralling, like the Dragon of Thespiae, which Menestratus slays by feeding himself to it in armor covered in fish-hooks, or the lamias of Libya, who entice young men into their striking-range by wiggling their tails, shaped like beautiful women, at them. The texts are arranged in such a way as to allow readers to witness the continuity of and evolution in dragon stories between the Classical and Christian worlds, and to understand the genesis of saintly dragon-slaying stories of the sort now characteristically associated with St George, whose earliest dragon-fight concludes the volume. All texts, a considerable number of which have not previously been available in English, are offered in new translations and accompanied by lucid commentaries that place the source-passages into their mythical, folkloric, literary, and cultural contexts. A sampling of the ancient iconography of dragons and an appendix on dragon slaying myths from the ancient Near East and India, particularly those with a bearing upon the Greco-Roman material, are also included. This volume promises to be the most authoritative sourcebook on this perennially fascinating and influential body of ancient myth.

Download or read book Silver Tongue s The Legend of the Dragon Tears written by Meagan Hazelton and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-05-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silver Tongue's The Legend of the Dragon tears is a fantasy children's book. It uses folklore to bring about the magic that exists all around us. The legend is told through a story teller who brings you into a world full of dragons. You see the fairy tales are real, they are just hidden. Dragon Tears connects a small legend to real life. Sending your family on a lifetime adventure. A message from the author on how the book came to be: Ever since I was a wee little girl, my father would tell me enchanted stories about the world around us generating from stories passed down through family. I have a strong Celtic ancestry. I grew up and became an elementary teacher. I soon realized that many of my students lacked the magical stories. I began to tell them of the dragons, and the magic they possess. Soon I started to illustrate them, and over time this book came into life. This story starts off with a Silver Tongue (an old story teller), passing on a story describing the magic inside the dragon tear. The illustrations are whimsical, not too detailed, mimicking the imagination that occurs when one hears the Silver Tongue's story. My children, as well as my students, love searching for the dragon tears. I love seeing their excited faces as they show me a beautiful stone they discovered outside.

Download or read book The Redundant Dragons written by Elizabeth Ann Scarborough and published by Gypsy Shadow Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Queen Verity is queen only because her mother has said she has to be. She agrees because, after all, somebody has to liberate the dragons who have long toiled in the boiler room bowels of the city. Now that they are free, nobody has any idea what to do with them or how to feed them. Everyone is used to dragons being docile cogs in the machinery of industry, tamed into tranquility by food treated with a hypnotic tranquilizer, now largely destroyed, leaving a lot of huge hungry beasts roving the capital city of Queenston. Verity needs to act fast, before the dragons remember what dragons once did to feed themselves. The crown has scarcely mussed her hair before her political enemies have her shanghaied and sold to an outward bound vessel, leaving the kingdom to the random mercies of her erstwhile assistant, Malady Hyde.
