Lastly, no D&D adventure would be complete without a trip to the Feywild. The 2022 Annual will transport readers into the whimsical Witchlight Carnival, a traveling circus filled with wild wonders aplenty. But its sensory splendors bring deep danger as well... The Wild Beyond the Witchlight adventure sourcebook that inspires this issue has been a sales smash hit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Libraries organize their collections to help library users find what they need. Organizing library collections may seem like a straightforward and streamlined process, but it can be quite complex, and there is a large body of theory and practice that shape and support this work. Learning about the organization of library collections can be challenging. Libraries have a long history of organizing their collections, there are many principles, models, standards, and tools used to organize collections, and theory and practice are changing constantly. Written for beginning library science students, Organizing Library Collections: Theory and Practice introduces the theory and practice of organizing library collections in a clear, straightforward, and understandable way. It explains why and how libraries organize their collections, and how theory and practice work together to help library users. It introduces basic cataloging and metadata theory, describes and evaluates the major cataloging and metadata standards and tools used to organize library collections, and explains, in general, how all libraries organize their collections in practice. Yet, this book not only introduces theory and practice in general, it introduces students to a wide range of topics involved in organizing library collections. This book explores how academic, public, school, and special libraries typically organize their collections and why. It also discusses standardization and explains how cataloging and metadata standards and policies are developed. Ethical issues also are explored and ethical decision-making is addressed. In addition, several discussion questions and class activities reinforce concepts introduced in each chapter. Students should walk away from this book understanding why and how libraries organize their collections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cult-favorite television series from creator Joss Whedon continues in comics with Season 10, where Buffy and the Scoobies are rewriting the rules of magic and monsters . . . While slaying the zompires that have overrun a small California town, Buffy and her pals are shocked to discover another new kind of vampire: harder to kill, able to transform, and walk in the light of day--like Dracula . . . If that weren't enough, the rules of magic are literally being rewritten in the Vampyr book. The crew attempts to restore the status quo, all while Xander is the victim of a haunting, his relationship with Dawn begins to crumble, and Dracula himself enters the picture. Then when the Vampyr book goes missing--now a highly coveted item--Buffy and the Scoobies head for what might be a disaster in Sunnydale where Andrew is up to his good/bad/old tricks again. As everyone feels the responsibility of protecting the book and writing the new magical rules, they are tempted by what new rules can do for them . . . just like the Big Bads who have come knocking on Buffy's door! Writers Christos Gage (Angel & Faith) and Buffy star Nicholas Brendon team with artist Rebekah Isaacs (Angel & Faith) to take on the Slayer and her teammates in her tenth season; they're joined by guest artists Richard Corben (Hellboy), Karl Moline (Fray), and Cliff Richards (Dollhouse)!

Download or read book Fifty Years of Dungeons Dragons written by Premeet Sidhu and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2024-05-14 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the fiftieth anniversary of Dungeons & Dragons, a collection of essays that explores and celebrates the game’s legacy and its tremendous impact on gaming and popular culture. In 2024, the enormously influential tabletop role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons—also known as D&D—celebrates its fiftieth anniversary. To mark the occasion, editors Premeet Sidhu, Marcus Carter, and José Zagal have assembled an edited collection that celebrates and reflects on important parts of the game’s past, present, and future. Each chapter in Fifty Years of Dungeons & Dragons explores why the nondigital game is more popular than ever—with sales increasing 33 percent during the COVID-19 pandemic, despite worldwide lockdowns—and offers readers the opportunity to critically reflect on their own experiences, perceptions, and play of D&D. Fifty Years of Dungeons & Dragons draws on fascinating research and insight from expert scholars in the field, including: Gary Alan Fine, whose 1983 book Shared Fantasy remains a canonical text in game studies; Jon Peterson, celebrated D&D historian; Daniel Justice, Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Literature and Expressive Culture; and numerous leading and emerging scholars from the growing discipline of game studies, including Amanda Cote, Esther MacCallum-Stewart, and Aaron Trammell. The chapters cover a diverse range of topics—from D&D’s adoption in local contexts and classrooms and by queer communities to speculative interpretations of what D&D might look like in one hundred years—that aim to deepen readers’ understanding of the game.

Download or read book Fated Hearth Guarding Their Dragon Mate Collection 2 written by Layla Heart and published by Easily Distracted Media. This book was released on 2020-10-30 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just when Sophia thinks she’s got a handle on things going on in the dragon town, her whole world is rocked, quite literally. The town Sophia grew up in is in a very bad state. Earth dragons are going missing, leaving young kids orphaned, and nobody knows what’s going on or where they’re taken. To make it even worse, a group of rebels who were supposed to bring supplies to the town haven’t shown up, making everyone worried that they’ve been caught by the renegade fae soldiers. Sophia and her men turn to an unusual source in their desperation to find answers, a magically sealed room at the hidden dragon library. A place nobody has been able to get into in decades. When Sophia manages to finally unlock the room with a spell passed down from her witch father, everything she thought she knew changes. It seems her father was involved in things that nobody had any idea about, showing a side to him that Sophia doesn’t know how to combine with what her mother told her about him. To top it off, she’s confronted with a half-sister she had no idea existed, a half-sister with fae and witch blood. Can Sophia and her men find out what happened to the missing earth dragons? And how much is Sophia’s father involved with what’s going on in the town right now? But most importantly, can they heal the town and the people in it, so that they can thrive again, like they used to? This collection includes the second three novellas in the Guarding Their Dragon Mate serial, Captured Dragon, Reclaimed Dragon and Ferocious Dragon, a six episodes long reverse harem #WhyChoose story. These novellas may include any of these elements: steamy scenes, ‘I need tissues NOW’ moments, cries of ‘why, oh, why’ and cliffhangers that make you bite your nails (and curse the author). This story takes place in the same world as the Lughnasadh Elite Academy and happens after the events from the first 10 parts of the other series. Both series can be read stand-alone, they are about different characters, but they are connected.
