Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Romanzo fantasy di ambientazione medievale. Sullo sfondo del feudalesimo, creature dotate di poteri soprannaturali e sudditi inermi lottano per la sopravvivenza, oppressi da un tiranno secolare e divisi dalla superstiziosa paura dell'infezione demoniaca. L'atavica leggenda nera narra di demoni predatori talmente feroci da intimorire un drago famelico. Philip il Sanguinario persegue lo sterminio degli Infetti con il sostegno della Setta, un ordine religioso reso potente dagli oscuri alchimisti di Duran. I confratelli sono impareggiabili cacciatori di demoni, ma minacciano gli antichi privilegi dei feudatari. Nel fastoso mondo aristocratico, una donzella di nobile stirpe viene promessa in sposa al famigerato Duca. La Volpe, irrequieta custode di un insidioso segreto, suo malgrado è stretta nella morsa degli intrighi di palazzo. Nei bassifondi della città, la Caccia Rossa dei sicari sta per cominciare; la condanna al patibolo incombe su una famiglia operaia, tradita dallo stigma della nefasta malattia. Ovunque, l'Eroe Mascherato sfida gli spietati cacciatori di Infetti e si proclama paladino della giustizia. Nascosto nell'anonimato, il benefattore degli indigenti contraddice la leggenda nera sui demoni e non pare la tenebrosa creatura dei racconti popolari. In verità, nel Regno dei Lord più che altrove l'apparenza inganna. Arcani. Trame e delitti, amore e coraggio, lealtà e inganno: in fatti di sangue di tempi lontani si celano i misteri della dinastia egemone, inquietanti come lo sguardo cieco del Duca. Storie d'amore. Sotto la tirannide di Philip il Sanguinario, l'amore è un barlume di speranza, come quel raggio di luna che rischiara le fitte ombre del Lord della Notte, foriero dell'alba Wildsibling.

Download or read book The True Story of Cinderella written by Isabelle Adriani and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Isabelle Adriani, writer, journalist and actress continues her now twenty- year study of fairy tales. Her initial degree including a thesis on the DNA of Fairy Tales was followed by PhD research in the same field. Intrigued by the ever-loved story of Cinderella (more than 300 versions of the story have spread all around the world) she now takes us 2650 years back in time in a marvelous narrative exploration of the first, real Cinderella in history, Rhodopis the rosy-cheeked, a Greek slave girl who married a Pharaoh and all because of a shoe. Ultimately, the Cinderella story is not that of an individual person, but rather of a spirit that lives within all of us, no matter what our culture is or which part of the world we come from. From the earliest versions, the odds are stacked against Cinderella - the name derives from cinder or ash - who is born low class and sold into slavery. Nonetheless, she is transformed into an independent, empowered, self-made woman. Her story unites us all in the knowledge that, despite our individual and societal limitations, color, language, space and time, we can and should continue to fight for justice and equality. A better life. A better world.
