Download or read book Ivanhoe and Rebecca and Rowena written by Walter Scott and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-06 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume bonds together the amazing novel IVANHOE by Sir Walter Scott, with the sequel written by another of the great writers of the 19th century, William Thackeray. Ivanhoe is a historical novel set in 12th century England, which has been credited for increasing interest in romance and medievalism. Some have claimed that Scott was the first to turn men's minds back towards the Middle Ages, and have attributed to Scott an overwhelming influence over the revival, based primarily on the publication of this novel. We must remember that this is the first novel that introduces the immortal character of Robin Hood, later reproduced by several authors, including Alexandre Dumas. In Rebecca and Rowana, the sequel by Thackeray -the famous author of Vanity Fair- , using his satire, creates an irreverent and theatrical plot that calls into question the ending of Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe.

Rowenna Winthrop has always known there’s magic within her. But though she hears voices on the wind and possesses unusual talents, her mother Mairead believes Rowenna lacks discipline, and refuses to teach her the craft that keeps their Scottish village safe. And when Mairead dies a sinister death, it seems Rowenna’s only chance to grow into her power has died with her. Then, on a fateful, storm-tossed night, Rowenna rescues a handsome stranger named Gawen from a shipwreck, and her mother miraculously returns from the dead. Or so it appears. The resurrected Mairead is nothing like the old one. To hide her new monstrous nature, she turns Rowenna’s brothers and Gawen into swans and robs Rowenna of her voice. Forced to flee, Rowenna travels to the city of Inverness to find a way to break the curse. But monsters take many forms, and in Inverness, Rowenna is soon caught in a web of strangers who want to use her raw magic for their own gain. If she wishes to save herself and the people she loves most, Rowenna will have to take her fate into her own hands and unlock the power that has evaded her for so long.

Black market courier Rowena Downshire is just trying to pay her mother’s freedom from debtor's prison when an urgent and unexpected delivery leads her face to face with a creature out of nightmares. Rowena escapes with her life, but the strange book she was ordered to deliver is stolen. The Alchemist knows things few men have lived to tell about, and when Rowena shows up on his doorstep, frightened and empty-handed, he knows better than to turn her away. What he discovers leads him to ask for help from the last man he wants to see—the former mercenary, Anselm Meteron. Across town, Reverend Phillip Chalmers awakes in a cell, bloodied and bruised, facing a creature twice his size. Translating the stolen book may be his only hope for survival; however, he soon realizes the book may be a fabled text written by the Creator Himself, tracking the nine human subjects of His Grand Experiment. In the wrong hands, it could mean the end of humanity. Rowena and her companions become the target of conspirators who seek to use the book for their own ends. But how can this unlikely team be sure who the enemy is when they can barely trust each other? And what will happen when the book reveals a secret no human was meant to know?
