Prince Starigan, heir to the throne, has been abducted and power has been usurped by a traitorous cabal In the mountainous highlands of Arvon is the small but ancient community the Stoneholding, which has held out against the gathering forces of the evil Ferabek. Here by tradition, from earliest times, the High Bard has resided as guardian of the Sacred Fire, as well as the golden harp called the Talamadh. But in his search for the lost prince, Ferabek has attacked the Stoneholding with his Black Scorpion Dragoons and razed it to the ground. Wilum, the aged High Bard was forced to flee for his life with a ragged band of survivors, including Kalaquinn Wright, the wheelwrightss son. Kal, green in years and understanding, was torn from his pastoral life in a remote highland clanholding, and thrust out onto a broader stage in a journey of danger and escape, discovery and enlightenment. Now, as night covers Ahn Norvys, he must save what remains of the hallowed order of things and seek his destiny, a destiny that lies far beyond the Stoneholding. He must somehow find Prince Starigan and rekindle the Sacred Fire. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

Book excerpt: *NOW A NETFLIX LIMITED SERIES—from producer and director Shawn Levy (Stranger Things) starring Mark Ruffalo, Hugh Laurie, and newcomer Aria Mia Loberti* Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award finalist, the beloved instant New York Times bestseller and New York Times Book Review Top 10 Book about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II. Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris, and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel. In a mining town in Germany, the orphan Werner grows up with his younger sister, enchanted by a crude radio they find. Werner becomes an expert at building and fixing these crucial new instruments, a talent that wins him a place at a brutal academy for Hitler Youth, then a special assignment to track the Resistance. More and more aware of the human cost of his intelligence, Werner travels through the heart of the war and, finally, into Saint-Malo, where his story and Marie-Laure’s converge. Doerr’s “stunning sense of physical detail and gorgeous metaphors” (San Francisco Chronicle) are dazzling. Deftly interweaving the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner, he illuminates the ways, against all odds, people try to be good to one another. Ten years in the writing, All the Light We Cannot See is a magnificent, deeply moving novel from a writer “whose sentences never fail to thrill” (Los Angeles Times).

Download or read book Legacy of the PURPOSE Stone written by Gilda Runco and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can you imagine waking up one day, announcing you are taking a trip to a distant landmark and driving off, with no directions, no plans? What are the chances that taking any road that appeals to you would actually get you where you wanted to go? So many of us treat our lives that way. We don't think about where we want to be in the future. We wake up each day and do whatever appeals to us or whatever we think needs to get done in the moment. But if failing to plan is equivalent to planning to fail, we shouldn't be skipping such an essential key in unlocking our purpose. Each one of us is here for a reason. We have been given a precious gift of life and by making intentional, positive choices we can plan our best path. It was a gift of a stone etched with the letters P-U-R-P-O-S-E that inspired the Legacy of the PURPOSE Stone. Gilda Runco tells a remarkable story of how a real-life tragedy led others towards a path for discovering their special purpose. "I had the lucky opportunity to witness how Gilda kept an auditorium of adolescences and adults hanging on every word she spoke. This book does a phenomenal job of illustrating the importance of family, friends, and following your purpose in life. I think every child and adult should read this book to help them answer the age old-question "Why am I here and what is my purpose in life?"' - Chad R. Vinansky, Mid Valley Secondary Center Principal "Gilda tells an emotional and personal story from her heart. She invites you into her soul with spectacular storytelling and a real purpose. This is a must-read for any parent as inspirational advice based on pains and experiences." - Larry Holeva, Executive Editor, The Times-Tribune, Scranton "All I can say is WOW! What a great self-help book." - Cathy Mazur, librarian and author of Stanley Seagull "Legacy of the PURPOSE Stone ignites a spark in oneself and should be required reading for every high school student because it gives a course to follow for a life filled with purpose." - Julia Betti, Mid Valley High School student "If you want to know how to turn emotional pain into personal progress, how to go from living in mediocrity into living above average, and from having no direction in your life to having a clear vision and specific goals, then you will benefit from this book. Great truths coupled with Biblical principles! I highly recommend that you take advantage of Gilda's experience and wisdom." - Pastor Gary W. Haskell, Sr, Jackson Baptist Church, Jackson, PA
