Download or read book Axiom A Divine Dungeon Series written by Dakota Krout and published by Artorian's Archives. This book was released on 2019-11-28 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A town put to the sword. The young forcibly recruited. An old man out for revenge. After his town is put to the sword and the children are taken to replace the fallen, an old man is out for revenge. He's ready to fail at the most difficult challenge in the world: cultivation. Too corrupted to even take the first steps, the sly old elder simply agreed with those who told him that it was impossible. Then he quietly ignored them, rubbed his hands together, and started anyway. He had always failed in what he did: he lost his way from the academy, his command was devastated by a Mage, he lost his town, and now his last hopes for the future had been stolen by a group of raiders. The only thing that had never failed him was his sharp mind and philosophy. He would cultivate... no matter what it cost him. A lifetime of failure can dull and dampen a soul. A reason to live, a goal, can change that in an instant. It is always darkest just before the dawn.

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.

Download or read book Fate in the Dungeon of Doom written by Peter Okonkwo and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-04 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FATE, IN THE DUNGEON OF DOOM, is a contemplative literary work on the kismet of the human person. It is a sort of an entreaty of a traumatized lad who has been thrust to throes in the underground prison of doom. It explains some sort of unknown facts about the orlay of a man, it answers the many chronic questions of the reality of a man's fate, with ideas susceptible to debate - if a man knows his destiny? - If fate itself is a stringent or a lenient spirit? - if fate's visitation would change the lifestyle of a man or cause him to die suddenly? - and how fate relates itself to the lifetime of a man. This book is made up of three sections: The Poems of Fate, The narrative and tragedic poems of Kwame, and other breathtaking poems.This collection has an intuitional interpretation of what a man's fate exhibit amidst impediments, endurance, abnegation, innocence, and most importantly, doom. It is a fatalistic poetry collection. *******RECOMMENDATIONS -"In his new collection of poems titled Fate, in the Dungeon of Doom, his follow-up to Ecstasy of the Dead, Peter Okonkwo oscillates between inspirational hope and clinical despondency, as he attempts to determine the nature of Fate, alternately referred to as kismet and destiny, and its function in a man's lives.Okonkwo in one instance consoles Fate as a partner to help us along life's journey...and in another instance, spurns him as a cruel trickster. He woos her as a would-be lover and then futilely pursues. Peter explains and asked gnarly questions on the true identity of a man's fate. Is kismet a place of our making or a destination? A question that vacillates my intuition, In the pages of Fate, in the Dungeon of Doom, the author presents fate as both a treasure to be attained and a curse that will destroy all.All this might tempt one to question Peter's sanity or at least his ability to illustrate the nature of a man's fate. But that would be missing the point...that within these pages, he is offering a sample of his pondering, inviting us to take a plunge into the ocean depths of his heart concerning a subject matter as evocative as that of the existence of God himself." FROM - "Kevin M. Kraft (Author of the DOBORO THE BOTTLENECKER book series, MOMO)."*********"Taking the themes and concepts he explored in his previous work, Ecstasy of the Dead, author Peter Okonkwo delivers another thoughtful, contemplative, and insightful collection of poetry and narrative verses. In many ways, Fate, in the Dungeon of Doom feels like a continuation of the author's earlier anthology, developing the narrative of Kwame's plight, and continuing his examination of a vast variety of ideas and issues through his raw, arresting writing.All at once, this anthology manages to be intellectually engaging, emotionally affecting, and sincerely thought-provoking. If you appreciate works that stimulate the mind and leave you mulling them over long after you've finished reading, you'll be sure to find enjoyment in this book. Much like his debut, Fate, in the Dungeon of Doom opens discussion on matters of the human psyche and the nature of Man's spirituality through the author's powerful words.Okonkwo is a smart and highly skilled young writer with a bright future ahead of him, and these two collections certainly illustrate his potential within this field. His voice is clear and insistent, and his passion for confronting and tackling any topic is very admirable. He is a talent to keep an eye on for sure" - FROM, "NIGHT TERROR NOVELS"

Download or read book Hyperion Or the Hermit in Greece written by Friedrich Hölderlin and published by . This book was released on 2019-03-05 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friedrich Hölderlin's only novel, Hyperion (1797-99), is a fictional epistolary autobiography that juxtaposes narration with critical reflection. Returning to Greece after German exile, following his part in the abortive uprising against the occupying Turks (1770), and his failure as both a lover and a revolutionary, Hyperion assumes a hermitic existence, during which he writes his letters. Confronting and commenting on his own past, with all its joy and grief, the narrator undergoes a transformation that culminates in the realisation of his true vocation. Though Hölderlin is now established as a great lyric poet, recognition of his novel as a supreme achievement of European Romanticism has been belated in the Anglophone world. Incorporating the aesthetic evangelism that is a characteristic feature of the age, Hyperion preaches a message of redemption through beauty. The resolution of the contradictions and antinomies raised in the novel is found in the act of articulation itself. To a degree remarkable in a prose work of any length, what it means is inseparable from how it means. In this skilful translation, Gaskill conveys the beautiful music and rhythms of Hölderlin's language to an English-speaking reader.

Book excerpt: Two transgender elders must learn to weave from Death in order to defeat an evil ruler--a tyrant who murders rebellious women and hoards their bones and souls--in the first novella set in the award-winning queer fantasy Birdverse universe "I am staggered by the richness and intricacy of R. B. Lemberg's imagination. The Four Profound Weaves is an intense and emotional story of a journey of change, growth, and courage." --Kate Elliott, New York Times bestselling author of the Court of Fives trilogy Wind: To match one's body with one's heart Sand: To take the bearer where they wish Song: In praise of the goddess Bird Bone: To move unheard in the night The Surun' nomads do not speak of the master weaver, Benesret, who creates the cloth of bone for assassins in the Great Burri Desert. But aged Uiziya must find her aunt in order to learn the final weave, although the price for knowledge may be far too dear to pay. Among the Khana in the springflower city of Iyar, women travel in caravans to trade, while men remain in the inner quarter, as scholars. A nameless man struggles to embody Khana masculinity, after many years of performing the life of a woman, trader, wife, and grandmother. As his past catches up, the man must choose between the life he dreamed of and Uiziya - while Uiziya must discover how to challenge the evil Ruler of Iyar, and to weave from deaths that matter. In this breathtaking debut set in R. B. Lemberg's beloved Birdverse, The Four Profound Weaves hearkens to Ursula Le Guin's The Left Hand of Darkness, and offers a timeless chronicle of claiming one's identity in a hostile world. About the Birdverse The Birdverse is the creation of fantasy author R. B. Lemberg. It is a complex, culturally diverse world, with a range of LGBTQIA characters and different family configurations.
