Download or read book The Bone Dragon written by Alexia Casale and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2013-04-30 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evie's shattered ribs have been a secret for the last four years. Now she has found the strength to tell her adoptive parents, and the physical traces of her past are fixed - the only remaining signs a scar on her side and a fragment of bone taken home from the hospital, which her uncle Ben helps her to carve into a dragon as a sign of her strength. Soon this ivory talisman begins to come to life at night, offering wisdom and encouragement in roaming dreams of smoke and moonlight that come to feel ever more real. As Evie grows stronger there remains one problem her new parents can't fix for her: a revenge that must be taken. And it seems that the Dragon is the one to take it. This subtly unsettling novel is told from the viewpoint of a fourteen-year-old girl damaged by a past she can't talk about, in a hypnotic narrative that, while giving increasing insight, also becomes increasingly unreliable. A blend of psychological thriller and fairy tale, The Bone Dragon explores the fragile boundaries between real life and fantasy, and the darkest corners of the human mind.

Download or read book Dragon Talk written by Fleur Adcock and published by Bloodaxe Books Limited. This book was released on 2010 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the appearance of Fleur Adcock's Poems 1960-2000 she wrote no more poems for several years. This cessation coincided with - but was not entirely caused by - her giving up smoking. When poetry returned to her in 2003 it tended towards a sparer, more concentrated style. This new collection continues to reflect her preoccupations with family matters and with her ambivalent feelings about her native New Zealand. Her initial inspiration was the letters her father wrote home from England to his parents during World War II, which evoked her own memories of that era. The central sequence moves from her first coming to consciousness in New Zealand up to and through the war years in Britain and on to sketches from her teens in puritanical postwar Wellington after her reluctant return - not without her usual sardonic eye for incongruities and absurdities. There are also affectionate poems for her grandchildren and her late mother.

Download or read book Sacred Omega written by Jill Haven and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "My body burns for him. It would be so easy to take him, to take what he offers me, to mate him. But I cannot. I must do my duty to my people." Reece knows the Dragons are dying out. He's given up hope of ever taking a mate for himself, as the sacred male omegas capable of carrying dragon young were hunted to extinction. But when Reece stumbles upon Matthew Stiles and recognizes him for the sacred omega he is, Reece knows that he must do everything in his power to protect the man - the only spark of hope for his race. Matthew can't deny that Mr. Tall, Dark, and Scrumptious is gorgeous and intense, but right now? He doesn't have time for distractions. He's more concerned about finding a job - any job in his field. A Master's in Paleontology doesn't go as far as it used to. The last thing that Matthew expects when he's invited to a secret dig is for Reece to show up at the hotel he is staying in - but when Reece saves from him being attacked by a group of men calling themselves the Templars, Matthew can't help but to start taking Reece's wild claims more seriously. Reece is only 800 years old - not old enough to breed. He should adhere to his people's laws, relinquishing his claim, and take Matthew before the dragon elders. Matthew ought to run far away from any man who claims to be a mythological beast. But when sparks flare, will the pull of their bodies be enough to forge a connection of the heart? Sacred Omega is the first book in the Guardian Dragons series. With rich worldbuilding and a satisfying happily ever after, this book is scorchingly hot, packed with adventure, and sets the stage for an epic struggle between the bonds of love and the darkness of hate. This book and every other book in the Guardian Dragons Series can be read in any order.
