Book excerpt: In Song of Sorcery, Book 1 of Songs from the Seashell Archives, hearthwitch Maggie Brown met minstrel Colin Songsmith and a unicorn named Moonshine while saving both her sister and the kingdom. All in a quest's work for a girl who can magically do anything she can convince her power is housework. To reward Maggie, the king makes her a princess, and therefore a good catch for the local noble bachelors. Only problem is, she doesn't want to get married. She wants to be with Moonshine, whose Unicorn Creed, as he understands it, forbids him to consort with anyone except a chaste maiden. It's rather a touchy situation, and so Princess Maggie abandons her crown and with Moonshine, she and Colin set out to see if they can find a loophole in Moonshine's creed. Of course, in the process they have to try to save the land of Argonia again, this time from a were-man, a revolutionary nymph, a town's worth of zombies, an ice worm and an evil wizard.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the modern day hills of the Ozark Mountains, lives a mid-twenties moonshiner and all around slacker named Waylon Drake (his friends call him Bert). At least that's how the world of humans knows him, but to the supernatural world he is something else entirely. Bert is a wizard that, under the careful scrutiny of the Hand of Magic, works as a low wage mercenary to make ends meet. Living as a wizard in a human world has become rather stagnant for Bert. But when a series of dark supernatural forces start showing up and threaten to harm him and everyone he cares about, he is forced on a mission to attempt to find a mysterious object that no one seems to know anything about. Wielding his wizard staff and a talking sword, the charismatic Bert must face off against hordes of wizards, vampires, were-creatures, and other powerful entities. In a high paced fantasy thrill ride, packed with action, humor, and even a little romance, can the Moonshine Wizard come out on top?

Book excerpt: "Not since the feud between the Hatfields and Mccoys, has anyone made a bunch of hillbillies interesting, and that's just what Phillip Duncan did with Moonshine Wizard." -- Jason Fedora, The Truth of BetrayalMagic and moonshine.Waylon 'Bert' Drake is a wizard and a moonshiner. Neither pays well, but he gets by doing the occasional odd job or selling a jar.Growing up learning magic, he dreamed of the day he and his wizard buddies would save the world. But his friends all grew up. Bert didn't, and there's not much world to save in the quiet Ozarks.That all changes when a dark wizard shows up and makes a simple threat: Bert will find a mysterious object for him, or the sorcerer will kill Bert and everyone he cares about. Only, this prick isn't the only one after the treasure. Several other dark entities want the same thing... And for some reason, they all got it in their heads that Bert should find it for them.If that ain't bad enough, none of these jerk wads seem to know exactly what the object is. But the threat is the same: find it for us, or we'll kill everyone you love.Bert and his talking sword are in a race against time to find this mysterious trinket, and then figure out what the heck to do with it. All while trying not to drag his friends into the mess or get caught by the local Hand of Magic goons, who'd love nothing more than to put him down, if they can prove he's gone rogue.And of course, he'll have to contend with a pile of dark wizards, flea-ridden were-critters, suck-heads, mage killing assassins, and a group of beings darker than anything he could imagine.But Waylon 'Bert' Drake will do whatever it takes to protect the people he cares about, even if that means condemning himself.It's all or nothing for the Moonshine Wizard."Witty, action-packed, and never one to shy away from the unexpected. Phillip Drayer Duncan is not to be missed." -- J.H. Fleming, Rhythms of Magic

Download or read book Wonder Tales from Baltic Wizards written by Frances Jenkins Olcott and published by Abela Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The selections in this book come from German and English sources. There is a mass of East Baltic folk-lore from which to choose which gives but a feeble idea of the extent of Baltic folk-lore. In this volume you will find tales of Enchantments, Wizards, Witches, Magic Spells, Nixy Queens, Giants, Fairy White Reindeer, and glittering Treasures from the Baltic Lands -- Lapland, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. Their setting is the Long Winter Night with its brilliant play of Northern Lights over the snow-covered tundra; or the brief Arctic summer--its sun burning night and day--with its birds, flowers, insect-clouds, singing waters, and almost tropic heat; or the golden sunshine of the southern amber coast. But it is the Northern Lights themselves, flashing and flaming through the dark heavens, that cast their mystic weirdness over many of these tales moulded by the peculiar imagination of the Asiatic and European East Baltic folks. The farther our stories draw south from Lapland, the lower sink the Northern Lights and their influence on folk-tales, till at last they merge with the warmer lights of Lithuania - the amber-land. Wizards and wizardry abound in Lappish, Finnish, and Estonian tales, Witches appear more often in Latvian and Lithuanian ones. And in all these countries except Lapland, many European folk-tale themes, which we know in the Grimm collection, are found in new forms. 33% of the net profit from this book will be donated to charities.

Download or read book Herschell Gordon Lewis Godfather of Gore written by Randy Palmer and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2006-07-19 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without a big budget, special effects team, or professional actors and crew members, Herschell Gordon Lewis created films that he himself admits were trash. Yet, while Gordon's softcore porn (The Adventures of Lucky Pierre) and heavy-duty gore (The Gruesome Twosome) were never blockbuster films, they were popular drive-in fare in the sixties and seventies. They have had a strong influence over more recent productions, and they have created for Lewis his own special niche in the world of exploitation and horror film. The history of Lewis the man and the filmmaker is a surprising one. Behind titles like Blood Feast and The Gore-Gore Girls is a warm and friendly gentleman whose road to his own brand of film glory was paved with disappointments, surprising successes, and lots and lots of fake blood. His career is examined in detail, with personal anecdotes and insights into making really gross movies on really small budgets. A filmography is included, and photographs, many of them rare, complement the text.

Book excerpt: “Starlings isn’t really a short-story collection. It’s something better: a written showreel, illustrating yet again that [Walton’s] imagination stretches to the stars (or the starlings), and that she’s endlessly inventive in finding new methods to express it.”—NPR Books An ancient coin cyber-spies on lovers and thieves. The magic mirror sees all but can do nothing. A cloned savior solves a fanatically-inspired murder. Three Irish siblings thieve treasures with bad poetry and the aid of the Queen of Cats. With these captivating initial glimpses into her storytelling psyche, Jo Walton shines through subtle myths and reinvented realities. Through eclectic stories, subtle vignettes, inspired poetry, and more, Walton soars with humans, machines, and magic—rising from the every day into the universe itself.

Download or read book Cheating and Deception written by J. Bowyer Bell and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-09-04 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cheating and deception are terms often used but rarely defined. They summon up unpleasant connotations; even those deeply involved with cheating and deception rationalize why they have been driven to it. Particularly for Americans and much of Western civilization, official cheating, government duplicity, cheating as policy, and conscious, contrived deception, are all unacceptable except as a last resort in response to threat of extinction. As a distasteful tool, deception is rarely used to achieve national interests, unless in relation to the deployment of military force. As an area of study, it has by and large been ignored.Intrigued by attitudes toward cheating and deception, the authors decided to analyze its roots, structure, and process. They asked fundamental questions: are there categories of deception, general steps in the process of deception, and ways to evaluate its results across time and in different modes? The book that results is a typology of kinds of deception, beginning with military deception, but extending into other categories and stages.In his introduction to this new edition, Bell outlines how the book came to be written, describes the mixed emotions toward the subject displayed by govenmental and nongovernmental funding sources, and speculates about its critical and commercial reception. He discusses widespread new interest in the subject, the research that has been undertaken since this book was first published, and its limitations.This book provides a general overview of this complex subject, creating a framework for analysis of specific instances of cheating or deception. It will be of particular interest to political scientists, those interested in military affairs and strategy, and psychologists. The general reader will find the book written with a light touch, drawing examples of cheating and deception in the pursuit of love and money. The specialist reader will be intrigued by its broad-ranging examples drawn from policy and politics,
