Book excerpt: A rich tale of power and forbidden love revolving around a young medieval queen In 1002, fifteen­-year-old Emma of Normandy crosses the Narrow Sea to wed the much older King Athelred of England, whom she meets for the first time at the church door. Thrust into an unfamiliar and treacherous court, with a husband who mistrusts her, stepsons who resent her and a bewitching rival who covets her crown, Emma must defend herself against her enemies and secure her status as queen by bearing a son. Determined to outmaneuver her adversaries, Emma forges alliances with influential men at court and wins the affection of the English people. But her growing love for a man who is not her husband and the imminent threat of a Viking invasion jeopardize both her crown and her life. Based on real events recorded in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, Shadow on the Crown introduces readers to a fascinating, overlooked period of history and an unforgettable heroine whose quest to find her place in the world will resonate with modern readers.

But with each new discovery, he and his daring companions—Ben, Spence, and Winnie—land in more and more danger. It’s the case of their young lives. Now if only they only live to escape it!

Download or read book The Quest for Queen Mary written by James Pope-Hennessy and published by Hodder. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A scary portrait of put-upon servants and potty aristos ... this is arguably the most riotously funny volume published this year' Max Hastings, Sunday Times 'One of the funniest, most eccentric books of the year' Craig Brown, Mail on Sunday When James Pope-Hennessy began his work on Queen Mary's official biography, it opened the door to meetings with royalty, court members and retainers around Europe. The series of candid observations, secrets and indiscretions contained in his notes were to be kept private for 50 years. Now published in full for the first time and edited by the highly admired royal biographer Hugo Vickers, this is a riveting, often hilarious portrait of the eccentric aristocracy of a bygone age. Giving much greater insight into Queen Mary than the official version, and including sharply observed encounters with, among others, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, the Duke of Gloucester, and a young Queen Elizabeth, The Quest for Queen Mary is set to be a classic of royal publishing.

Download or read book What Is Your Quest written by Anastasia Salter and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Your Quest? examines the future of electronic literature in a world where tablets and e-readers are becoming as common as printed books and where fans are blurring the distinction between reader and author. The construction of new ways of storytelling is already underway: it is happening on the edges of the mainstream gaming industry and in the spaces between media, on the foundations set by classic games. Along these margins, convergent storytelling allows for playful reading and reading becomes a strategy of play. One of the earliest models for this new way of telling stories was the adventure game, the kind of game centered on quests in which the characters must overcome obstacles and puzzles. After they fell out of fashion in the 1990s, fans made strenuous efforts to keep them alive and to create new games in the genre. Such activities highlight both the convergence of game and story and the collapsing distinction between reader and author. Continually defying the forces of obsolescence, fans return abandoned games to a playable state and treat stories as ever-evolving narratives. Similarly, players of massive multiplayer games become co-creators of the game experience, building characters and creating social networks that recombine a reading and gaming community. The interactions between storytellers and readers, between programmers and creators, and among fans turned world-builders are essential to the development of innovative ways of telling stories. And at the same time that fan activities foster the convergence of digital gaming and storytelling, new and increasingly accessible tools and models for interactive narrative empower a broadening range of storytellers. It is precisely this interactivity among a range of users surrounding these new platforms that is radically reshaping both e-books and games and those who read and play with them.

Download or read book Quest for the Crown written by Diana M. Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Martel's son, Pepin the Short, (who will become Charlemagne's father) yearns to become King of All Franks, a title the Merovingians have claimed for hundreds of years. Even should he succeed, can Pepin fight his beloved older brother, Carloman, for the crown? No such scruples hold him from warring with his younger half siblings. In the absence of a Merovingian on the throne, Pepin and Carloman surprise everyone by jointly ruling the Franks as Mayors of the Palace. When Carloman insists they need a Merovingian figurehead king, Pepin acquiesces. Carloman, in penance for an unforgivable act, resigns his office to become a monk, leaving Pepin in sole power over the Franks, 'ruled' by a do-nothing king. Pepin gains the crown through the power of the pope in Rome, thus establishing the idea of the divine right of kings. Then to protect his mentor, Pepin must scale the formidable Alps to battle the Lombards who threaten the pope and Rome. In donating the cities he wins to the papal chair, Pepin begins what will become the Vatican-geographic territory belonging to the pope. "Deftly written by Diana M. Johnson, Quest for the Crown is a compelling historical novel... engaging and enthusiastically recommended." James Cox, Editor-in-Chief, The Midwest Book Review. "Ms. Johnson is an expert on this family. She will surprise and entertain you; all the time telling a story based on authentic fact." Alan Caruba, Editor, Bookviews.com.

Download or read book Virtual Gender written by Alison Adam and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-08-03 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As yet there has been relatively little published on women's activities in relation to new digital technologies. Virtual Gender brings together theoretical perspectives from feminist theory, the sociology of technology and gender studies with well designed empirical studies to throw new light on the impact of ICTs on contemporary social life. A line-up of authors from around the world looks at the gender and technology issues related to leisure, pleasure and consumption, identity and self. Their research is set against a backcloth of renewed interest in citizenship and ethics and how these concepts are recreated in an on-line situation, particularly in local settings. With chapters on subjects ranging from gender-switching on-line, computer games, and cyberstalking to the use of the domestic telephone, this stimulating collection challenges the stereotype of woman as a passive victim of technology. It offers new ways of looking at the many dimensions in which ICTs can be said to be gendered and will be a rich resource for students and teachers in this expanding field of study.
