Excerpt: "On the farther frontier of the Western Lands dwelt Sir Fortis, an aged knight who was warden of one of the outposts of the Great King. He had won high renown in the battles of his earlier days, but the virtues of his riper years had brought him the glory of a gentler kind. The King's banner flew proudly from his castle wall, and when he rode forth he did honor to the royal service by the dignity of his bearing and the brightness of his arms..."

Victory is not always what it seems. Keladry of Mindelan has finally achieved her lifelong dream of becoming a knight—but it’s not quite what she imagined. In the midst of a brutal war, Kel has been assigned to oversee a refugee camp. She’s sure it’s because Lord Wyldon still doesn’t see her as equal to the men. Nevertheless, she’s learning the importance of caring for people who have been robbed of their homes, wealth, and self-respect. Perhaps this battle is as important as the war with Scanra? When Kel has a vision of the man behind the horrific killing devices that her friends are fighting without her, will she honor her sworn duty . . . or embark on a quest that could turn the tide of the war? More timely than ever, the Protector of the Small series is Anti-Bullying 101 while also touching on issues of bravery, friendship, and dealing humanely with refugees against a backdrop of an action-packed fantasy adventure.

Download or read book Dreamers of Earth and Aether written by Tamara Ralis and published by hockebooks. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in landscapes, cities and rooms, these very short prose portraits direct the reader’s gaze towards something encompassing, far beyond what the narratives recount. The voices of an artist, a dying soldier, a scholar, a child, an employee, a monk and a young girl speak. Simultaneously surreal and existentialistic, their psyches traverse the chasm between the 20th and 21st century, leaving a poetic trail. The thoughts of each person characterized evoke an alternate imaginary space, where waking life and the dreamed can no longer be differentiated. The narratives vibrate as the visible and the invisible intertwine, disrupting the certainty of a single plane of existence.

Download or read book Hollywood Knights written by S. Aronstein and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-30 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hollywood Knights examines Hollywood Arthuriana as political nostalgia offered to American viewers during times of cultural crisis: the red scare of the 1950s, the breakdown of traditional authority in the 1960s and 1970s, the turn to the right in the 1980s and the redemption of masculine and national authority in the 1990s. Its analysis of these films explores their proposal of an ideal past - an Americanized Camelot and a democratized chivalry - as the solution to the problems of a troubled present, a solution that will ensure prosperity in the homeland and a globally beneficial American authority abroad.

Download or read book Raising a Modern Day Knight written by Robert Lewis and published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2011-09-06 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be a man? Moreover, how do you as a father instill that reality in your son? By Raising a Modern-Day Knight. The medieval custom of knighthood offers a unique approach to shaping a boy into a strong, godly man. Centuries ago, select boys went through a rigorous, years-long process of clearly defined objectives, goals, and ceremonies—with the hope of achieving knighthood. Along the way, they acquired a boldly masculine vision, an uncompromising code of conduct, and a noble cause in which to invest their lives. They were the heroes of their age. In much the same way, Raising a Modern-Day Knight will show how you, too, can confidently guide your son to the kind of authentic, biblical manhood that can change out world. Complete with ceremony ideas to celebrate accomplishments and ingrain them in the mind of a knight-in-training, this resource is as insightful as it is practical in raising a boy to be a chivalrous, godly man.
