Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Becoming a goddess wasn’t what I planned for today. Death made me an offer I couldn't refuse. But I'm in love with the archangel who is his oldest and best friend. “You have been friends for a millennium,” I said. Perhaps as much as a god and his angel could be friends, I thought. “It would be cosmically stupid for you to allow a woman to ruin such love.” I held their hands tight as they flinched and tried again to pull away. But they were looking at me now, not each other, which is what I wanted. Focus on me, boys, I thought to myself, selecting my next words carefully. The stone floor was hard and cool against my knees as I knelt between them. I brought both of their hands to my lips. “I choose you,” I said again, loud enough to fill the dark room. I looked from one to another and asked, “Will you both choose me?” Confusion and ancient possessiveness settled across their faces at war with hope and a new consideration. The juxtaposition might have been comical had my heart not hung in the balance. Ravens mate for life. And death. ---- Raven Queen, Arise is a poly romance featuring a bisexual heroine doing the best she can to protect the people she loves, right the wrongs done her, and assemble the beginnings of her own reverse harem.

Download or read book The Talking Greeks written by John Heath and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-05-12 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When considering the question of what makes us human, the ancient Greeks provided numerous suggestions. This book argues that the defining criterion in the Hellenic world, however, was the most obvious one: speech. It explores how it was the capacity for authoritative speech which was held to separate humans from other animals, gods from humans, men from women, Greeks from non-Greeks, citizens from slaves, and the mundane from the heroic. John Heath illustrates how Homer's epics trace the development of immature young men into adults managing speech in entirely human ways and how in Aeschylus' Oresteia only human speech can disentangle man, beast, and god. Plato's Dialogues are shown to reveal the consequences of Socratically imposed silence. With its examination of the Greek focus on speech, animalization, and status, this book offers new readings of key texts and provides significant insights into the Greek approach to understanding our world.

Download or read book Homer s Iliad The Real Story written by John D. Martin and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2021-05-24 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the nearly three millennia since its creation, the Iliad's Real Story has gone undiscovered. Homer, a blind poet as antiquity believed him to be, created a powerful war story which must have enthralled his listening audiences. But this story concealed another one, far grander in design, and immensely more clever in execution, which can be discovered only by careful examination of the written text. Living in an age where literacy was minimal, Homer created this story for the gods, and undoubtedly never expected any mortal to understand it. Homer's imaginative fantasy radically undermines traditional Trojan War mythology, and exposes the speciousness of war's glory, the folly of the warriors who (supposedly) fight for it, and the amorality of the gods who help them do so. Homer's great war poem, great indeed, war poem indeed, is in its depths antiwar. In piecing together the Iliad's web of secret plans, deeply hidden motives, and subtle lies and deceptions, and in the process identifying and discarding post-Homeric corruptions to the text, we will find an Iliad which is not a prelude to Achilles' glorious early death and the Fall of Troy, but the opposite. In a concealed ending, towards which the entire story has been leading, Homer's own words will tell us how Achilles, as supplicated by Priam, chooses a long life without renown, and goes home. The Greek army, unwilling to fight without its greatest warrior, leaves also, sparing peaceful, holy Troy, Zeus’ favorite city and best hope for mankind. Homer tells this story with a brilliance that is almost unimaginable, until one actually encounters it. The Real Iliad is an immense intellectual challenge and an inexhaustible source of surprises. Far from a formalistically "heroic" epic, as has long been thought, it is an imaginative expression of the full creative powers of Western antiquity's greatest author.

Free, and able to pursue the adventurers who left him for dead in the harrowing realm of the Nightlands. When one of those treacherous adventurers falls right into his lap, all he can do is praise Weltyr and make use of his good fortune. Upon learning that the dwarf, Grimalkin, may have taken the Scepter of Weltyr for himself back to Rhineland, Rorke manages to convince his beautiful durrow companions to come on this retrieval mission--not just for his own purposes, but to increase their odds of successfully retrieving Valeria's sacred ring. Not everyone is on board, though. High elf druid Branwen, freshly rescued from the den of misshapen bandits, has some designs of her own...and though Rorke is devoted to assisting his former mistress, Branwen seduced him once before. She's confident she can do it again. But when a sensual wild witch from the mountains outside the Nightlands claims she knows the secrets of his heritage, Branwen will have to learn to play nice with the rest of Rorke's harem if she wants to keep him from being spirited away. Mature readers only! This fantasy harem adventure in the style of Dungeons & Dragons contains explicit encounters between the lucky hero and many gorgeous women he encounters on his quest.
