Book excerpt: A runaway spell is the most dangerous weapon of all. Alpha for the few remaining Sea Shifters, Leif’s been playing fast and loose with death for years. Plagued by a poisoned ocean, treacherous sea gods, illness, and bad bargains, he’s learned to roll with the punches. Setting ancient antagonism aside, he joined a group of land Shifters, pledging both his help and that of his pod. A vulture shifter, Moira embraces her life on Arkady, a small polar cruise ship. She faces problems—ones that may kill all of them—but at least she’s free. No more sneaking around hiding from Vampires and not having enough magic to shift, courtesy of short rations and toxic air. Leif yearns for Moira, but Sea Shifters don’t mate with their land cousins—ever. Besides, they have their hands more than full. Not only is there no time for love, there’s barely space to breathe as they wend their way through a volatile obstacle field littered with demons, hostile gods, and ancient horrors bent on their destruction. PRAISE FOR THE BITTER HARVEST SERIES: “I am a huge fan of this author's work having read quite a few of her different series of books and I was so surprised by how different this book is from her other series, surprised and blown away by how amazing it was and how much I adored this book!!!!” Goodreads Review “What a cool new world and an awesome story. A spell gone wrong and a cataclysm has hit, trapping the people, shifters, and vampires in Ushuaia. The vampires are at the top of the food chain and everything is dying.” Goodreads Review “Just my kind of story. The sea, a ship, someone named Viktor to make the story fantastic. He just wants to get back to a life on the sea even though it’s tough. Obviously, it’s not going to be easy. Not to be missed. The audio book has a narrator that has you listening until the end.” Goodreads Review “Entertaining and I loved the premise!

Download or read book The American Fantasy Tradition written by Brian M. Thomsen and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2003-09-13 with total page 614 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient tales of long-dead civilizations to the wild success of J. R. R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, fantasy has fired our imaginations for as long as there has been story. Whether sweeping sagas of fantastic adventures or cautionary tales told around the campfire, fantasy is deeply woven into the very fabric of humanity, wearing many faces and coming in many flavors. But what fantasy is distinctly American? The American Fantasy Tradition sets out to answer this very question. This comprehensive critical anthology of American fantasy literature applies the groundbreaking theorems of such esteemed American literary critics as Leslie Fiedler, Richard Chase, and Irving Howe to the genre of fantasy in an effort to delineate the true American tradition of fantasy from the more prominent Anglo-European canon, breaking it down into three distinctive strains: The American Tale: Folk, Tall, and Weird Stories that might be considered fables or legends, much like the epics of the Age of Heroes from the classical eras of Rome and Greece, or the tales of the fairy folk from the European tradition, or the fables of Aesop. Fantastic Americana Stories set directly within the American historic landscape, much as the Arthurian tradition is set within the confines of British history. Lands of Enchantment in Everyday Life Stories that involve what might be called the American spirit, focusing on worlds that exist in the shadows of our own, just beyond Rod Serling’s famous signpost for The Twilight Zone.

Download or read book Wisdom Science written by Norman Edgar Wengert and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2009-07-31 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond mindfulness, meditation, divine guidance systems, religions, psychologies and philosophies, lies a world not thought-produced but thought-confusing. To decapitate ideologies, beliefs and convictions, learn to use the center for intuitional learning, one's own biometric GPS. Not a mental faculty but mind can learn and be taught how to make cognitive-conscious use of this innate resident of our inner space. Finally, a method for direct connection, the science and art of interaction at the interface of intellect and Ultimate Reality Itself. Integrating why we all feel identically but think very differently, is to finally comprehend why the culprit is unmonitored thinking. Why should we not force the mind to work under the tutelage of Wisdom contained in the unity of the organism within the matrix of Forever? Mind tries to make sense, the Other Nature IS sense. Religions are of past glorious attempts to bring the essence of Eternity into our personal lives. Into our heads, that is, since it has been in everything else all along. (Wisdom Science)

Download or read book Photographic Ekphrasis in Cuban American Fiction written by Louisa Söllner and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-09-24 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photographic Ekphrasis in Cuban-American Fiction offers new readings of Cuban-American novels and autobiographies, demonstrating that a focus on photographs (alluded to, analyzed, and/or obsessively recurrent in the narrative discourse) provides fresh insights into these texts. The study introduces the concept of photographic ekphrasis as a reading tool for diasporic literature and argues that visual images are important components of narratives about dislocation, nostalgia, and transcultural experience. Authors treated in depth include Carlos Eire, Cristina García, Oscar Hijuelos, Roberto G. Fernández, Ana Menéndez, Achy Obejas, and Gustavo Pérez Firmat. Missing Pictures offers an original perspective on Cuban-American literature and contributes to the scholarship on ekphrasis and on the interactions between photography and narrative.
