Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One mistake. Five lives. A universe in chaos. Inspired by Asian and Middle Eastern mythologies, The Dragon Pearl Series box set contains six novellas whose interconnected stories determine the fate of a universe in the novels Tamuda Rising and The Four-Day War. Packed with adventure, this complete 1400-page series is perfect for readers of epic fantasy. Book 1 - Hotsuka’s Story Banished from Heaven and no longer a Celestial, Hotsuka must adapt to his new life as the monk, Gaurang. Can he rescue his newborn son who’s destined to change the universe? Not everyone, however, wants change. Book 2 - Barid’s Story Barid, a once-elite warrior turned blacksmith, despised and ridiculed by villagers, waits for Noor: a man whom he’d die for; a man who may already be dead. When Gaurang arrives and promises the villagers a miracle, Barid must decide whether to remain a blacksmith or put his past and Noor behind him. Book 3 - Omid’s Story If he’s to save the Empire, Omid, the emperor’s sickly son, must complete Gaurang’s undertaking: to forge a sword so light and sharp it will cut a falling leaf. With a Dragoness out to sabotage the undertaking, can Omid complete the task in time, or will he plunge the Empire and the Dragonfolk back into endless war? Book 4 - Madhuri’s Story Captured by the nomadic Tamuda, Madhuri receives two gifts from a snake spirit. Thanks to the first gift, she is betrothed to the charismatic Chuluun. As Madhuri settles into her new life, she discovers her presence endangers the entire Tamuda nation. When the spirit’s second gift reveals itself, Madhuri realises she must sacrifice everything, including Chuluun. Book 5 - Babak’s Story Half-human and half-monkey, Babak befriends Kunie, the emperor’s daughter. Infatuated, he wants to be a guardsman and, one day, Kunie’s personal bodyguard. But Babak was born to serve a greater purpose. How will he react when he learns his commitment to Kunie and his destiny are not one and the same thing? Book 6 - Shernaz’s Story Abandoned by her husband, Shernaz is rescued by the Queen of Patalama and given a Dragon pearl. Thanks to the pearl, Shernaz enjoys prolonged youth and the independence she always dreamed of. When the pearl loses its power, obtaining a second carries a dreadful price. Book 7 – Tamuda Rising The Tamuda nation gathers and prepares for war. The Takeo Sura, a cabal of disgruntled Dragons, use deceit, cunning and murder to create chaos before the invading horde reaches the Imperial Fortress. While a desperate group of guardsmen try to hinder the Tamuda’s advance, the Fortress prepares for a siege. The Takeo Sura, however, have other ideas. In Tamuda Rising, the storylines for Gaurang, Barid, Omid, Kunie, Babak and Shernaz converge. Each has a role in determining the fate of the Empire and ultimately the universe. Book 8 – The Four-day War As the Tamuda battle their way into the Imperial Fortress, the Takeo Sura hamper the Empire’s attempts to defend itself. With Gaurang missing and news Babak has sided with the Tamuda, Kunie’s first days as empress are fraught. Meanwhile, Lady Shinju and the Meijin Council arrive on the Dragon Isles. Like Lord Takeo, she’s prepared for a four-day war, the outcome of which will decide the fate of humans, Dragons and gods alike. The Four-Day War is the eighth and final instalment in the Dragon Pearl Series.

Download or read book The Women s Book of Healing written by Diane Stein and published by Crossing Press. This book was released on 2011-03-02 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women are naturally healers. Throughout time, they have performed curative roles as mothers, midwives, caregivers, and wisewomen, but modern medicine has suppressed this important tradition. Ancient women healers knew that the body is more than what is seen: through body, emotions, mind, and spirit, we can connect with the Goddess and actively choose to heal ourselves and others. By relearning and using ancient skills like aura and chakra work, creative visualization, meditation, laying on of hands, psychic healing, and working with crystals and gemstones, women can prevent or transform many dis-eases of the body and spirit before they become matters for modern medicine. In THE WOMEN'S BOOK OF HEALING, Diane Stein, author of the best-selling ESSENTIAL REIKI, demystifies, explains, and teaches these skills in ways that modern women can learn and use. She first introduces basic healing, then applies those skills to healing with crystals and gemstones-a beautiful, effective, and empowering aspect of the ancient woman's healing methods. A comprehensive guide from a knowledgeable healer, THE WOMEN'S BOOK OF HEALING proves that well-being is within a woman's choice and natural abilities, and reaffirms her timeless role as healer of herself and others. • An affirmation of woman's traditional role as healer, speaking to a national trend toward alternative medicine and natural healing methods. • Demystifies, explains, and teaches the healing capabilities of auras, chakras, laying on of hands, crystals, gemstones, and colors. • Thoroughly revised and updated, with a new introduction. • Diane Stein's books have sold more than 600,000 copies.

Download or read book Blood Relations written by Chris Knight and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of symbolic culture is generally linked with the development of the hunger-gatherer adaptation based on a sexual division of labor. This original and ingenious book presents a new theory of how this symbolic domain originated. Integrating perspectives of evolutionary biography and social anthropology within a Marxist framework, Chris Knight rejects the common assumption that human culture was a modified extension of primate behavior and argues instead that it was the product of an immense social, sexual, and political revolution initiated by women. Culture became established, says Knight, when evolving human females began to assert collective control over their own sexuality, refusing sex to all males except those who came to them with provisions. Women usually timed their ban on sexual relations with their periods of infertility while they were menstruating, and to the extent that their solidarity drew women together, these periods tended to occur in synchrony. The result was that every month with the onset of menstruation, sexual relations were ruptured in a collective, ritualistic way as the prelude to each successful hunting expedition. This ritual act was the means through which women motivated men not only to hunt but also to concentrate energies on bringing back the meat. Knight shows how this hypothesis sheds light on the roots of such cultural traditions as totemic rituals, incest and menstrual taboos, blood-sacrifice, and hunters’ atonement rites. Providing detailed ethnographic documentation, he also explains how Native American, Australian Aboriginal, and other magico-religious myths can be read as derivatives of the same symbolic logic.
