Book excerpt: They say to hold a Memory Blade is to live forever, both as a life trapped within the blade itself and as a Memory Lord to rule over one of the Five Cities - each one an immortal part of our nation's history.I say to hold a Memory Blade is to become an utter bastard, with the minds and memories of three dozen pricks inside your head, all encouraging you to do depraved and despicable things. It sounds like immense fun, sure, but could you really sell your own self-worth for a lifetime of endless pleasures? Probably best not to answer that.Well regardless of my feelings on the matter, in less than twenty-four hours I am due to become the new Lord Warrior, the thirtieth lucky Thurat heir to receive the Warrior's Heart, the Memory Blade which grants its wielder unrivalled martial ability and twenty-nine bastards inside my head, including my own recently departed demon of a father. With the four other ruling Memory Lords coming to my city to witness the event, all I have to do is survive them all trying to politely kill me and pilfer my family's Memory Blade. Nothing too difficult, I'm sure, especially not with dear Dusty helping me.'Dusty?''Yes, sir?''You'll make certain that no-one kills me before tomorrow, won't you?''I won't indeed, sir, yes.''Ah ... right, well, let's not dally any longer. Best to get this day over with and see who's still alive by this time tomorrow!'

Download or read book Balanced on the Blade s Edge written by Lindsay Buroker and published by Lindsay Buroker. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonel Ridge Zirkander isn’t the model of military professionalism—he has a tendency to say exactly what’s on his mind, and his record has enough demerits to wallpaper the hull of an airship—but as the best fighter pilot in the Iskandian army, he’s used to a little leniency from his superiors. Until he punches the wrong diplomat in the nose and finds himself issued new orders: take command of a remote prison mine in the inhospitable Ice Blades Mountains. Ridge has never been in charge of anything larger than a flier squadron—what’s he supposed to do with a frozen fortress full of murderers and rapists? Not to mention the strange woman who shows up right before he arrives… Sardelle Terushan wakes from three hundred years in a mage stasis shelter, only to realize that she is the last of the Referatu, the sorcerers who once helped protect Iskandia from conquerors. Their subterranean mountain community was blown up in a treacherous sneak attack by soldiers who feared their power. Everyone Sardelle ever knew is dead, and the sentient soulblade she has been bonded to since her youth is buried in the core of the mountain. Further, what remains of her home has been infested by bloodthirsty miners commanded by the descendants of the very soldiers who destroyed her people. Sardelle needs help to reach her soulblade—her only link to her past and her last friend in the world. Her only hope is to pretend she’s one of the prisoners while trying to gain the commander’s trust. But lying isn’t her specialty, especially when the world has changed so much in the intervening centuries, and if Colonel Zirkander figures out who she truly is, he’ll be duty-bound to sentence her to the only acceptable punishment for sorcerers: death.

Mulford’s viral sensation! A magic sword. A powerful curse. An untested fae princess. And a continent on fire... Eighteen-year-old Ruadora Dammacus now possesses the Immortal Blade, a powerful artifact that might be enough to overthrow the cruel oppression threatening the land. Yet when Rua discovers the Northern Court King’s uncle is not only alive but has cast a spell on the blue witch army, she realizes that the battle is just beginning. Venturing into the Northern Court, Rua finds herself working closely with the young Northern King. Her problems are mounting, and the handsome—and perhaps evil—king is only one of them. With the eyes of her newfound family on her, can Rua prove herself worthy of the Immortal Blade and break the curse over the blue witches, or will its magic be too difficult to control? And, perhaps even more dangerous, is her growing connection to the Northern King and what that means for her people…and her heart.

Download or read book Kahlil Joseph and the Audiovisual Atlantic written by Joe Jackson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2024-07-11 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kahlil Joseph has collaborated with musicians FKA twigs, Flying Lotus, Sampha and Shabazz Palaces among many others. He has directed numerous films, music videos and advertisements across Africa, America and Europe. The award-winning filmmaker's disruptive style – which frequently merges visual representations of transcontinental experiences with the countercultural energies of Afrodiasporic music – challenges the Eurocentric biases underpinning Western media. At the same time, his works generate various contradictions and tensions because they are themselves products situated within an economic framework of neoliberal capitalism, at once offering alternative ways of being while, simultaneously, participating in and thereby sustaining the social structures that they otherwise seek to subvert and dismantle. This is the first book-length study of Kahlil Joseph's work. Distinguishing the artist's personal and professional personas, it traces Joseph's career trajectory and artistic output, emphasizing how the director's construction of a multifaceted filmmaking persona operates in tandem with his artworks to challenge fixed, unidimensional or stable notions of identity. Through biographical study and deep examinations of the director's respective transmedia artworks, this book draws from various discussions shaped by Paul Gilroy's ground-breaking text The Black Atlantic (1993). By applying The Black Atlantic's disruptive audiocentric ideas to contemporary digital media forms generated by Kahlil Joseph and his peers alike, this book challenges the latent Eurocentricity on which dominant theorizations of 'modernity' – as well as the overlapping fields of Film, Media and Screen Studies – are grounded. In turn, it offers an alternative framework for negotiating the paradoxes, contradictions and transnational flows of our media-saturated present: namely, the Audiovisual Atlantic.
