Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A gorgeous and thrilling paean to the ferocious power of women. The characters live, bleed, and roar. "―Laini Taylor, New York Times bestselling author A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Winner of the British Fantasy Award for Best Fantasy Novel • Named One of the Best Books of the Year by NPR Books • Barnes and Noble • BookPage In the late 1800s, three sisters use witchcraft to change the course of history in this powerful novel of magic, family, and the suffragette movement. In 1893, there's no such thing as witches. There used to be, in the wild, dark days before the burnings began, but now witching is nothing but tidy charms and nursery rhymes. If the modern woman wants any measure of power, she must find it at the ballot box. But when the Eastwood sisters―James Juniper, Agnes Amaranth, and Beatrice Belladonna―join the suffragists of New Salem, they begin to pursue the forgotten words and ways that might turn the women's movement into the witch's movement. Stalked by shadows and sickness, hunted by forces who will not suffer a witch to vote―and perhaps not even to live―the sisters will need to delve into the oldest magics, draw new alliances, and heal the bond between them if they want to survive. There's no such thing as witches. But there will be. An homage to the indomitable power and persistence of women, The Once and Future Witches reimagines stories of revolution, motherhood, and women's suffrage—the lost ways are calling. Praise for The Once and Future Witches: "A glorious escape into a world where witchcraft has dwindled to a memory of women's magic, and three wild, sundered sisters hold the key to bring it back...A tale that will sweep you away."―Yangsze Choo, New York Times bestselling author "This book is an amazing bit of spellcraft and resistance so needed in our times, and a reminder that secret words and ways can never be truly and properly lost, as long as there are tongues to speak them and ears to listen."―P. Djèlí Clark, author The Black God's Drum For more from Alix E. Harrow, check out The Ten Thousand Doors of January.

Download or read book The Kingmaker s Sisters written by David Baldwin and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2011-11-30 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warwick the Kingmaker, the Earl of Warwick & Salisbury whose wealth and power was so great that he could effectively decide who would rule England during the Wars of the Roses (1455-1487), had six sisters: Joan, Cecily, Alice, Eleanor, Katherine and Margaret. They all married powerful noblemen who fought on opposing sides during this turbulent period. The Kingmaker's Sisters examines the role that they played in late fifteenth-century England, as wives, mothers and homemakers, but also as deputies for their absent husbands, and how the struggle between the Yorkists and the Lancastrians affected them and their families. Scholarly but accessible, this is the first history of the Wars of the Roses to be written from this perspective, and will appeal to general readers, historians of the period and those with an interest in feminist history.

Book excerpt: Orpheus, the famed oracle orator hero of Greece, began to teach a new religion at the dawn of the Archaic Age. Deeply rooted in ancient paganism, Orphism taught a doctrine of peace-seeking, reincarnation, and universal brotherhood. The followers, like their leader, worshiped their gods with song. Eighty seven of these ancient hymns have survived to the present day, and are called The Orphic Hymns. They've been translated into English many times. In this new collection of translations, from noted magician and pagan teacher Sara L. Mastros, the hymns come alive for the modern pagan. In addition to her inspired translations, this book also contains fascinating historical and social commentary on the hymns from a modern, feminist, pagan viewpoint, as well as spells and devotional practices for modern worshippers of the Greek gods, and brilliant "color your own" ikons.

Book excerpt: A page-turning debut novel among the likes of Hunger Games, Snow White, and Throne of Glass, this dark fairy tale adaptation will have you on the edge of your seat. What if I told you that you were prey? What if I told you that everything you knew about your life was a lie and that you're being hunted? This is the reality for Luvenia Rousseau. Amidst the struggle to survive in a famished, war-torn country and the fight against the phantoms of her past, her family is brutally ripped apart by a tyrant queen's venomous army. Just when all hope seems lost, she stumbles upon an enchanted realm while the queen hunts for the one who got away. Praise for The Queen's Keeper: "Although not my preferred genre, I found this book very interesting. I couldn't put it down. ...action, romance, mystery, suspense...it's all therel!!" "If, like me, fantasy is one of your genres of choice, you'll be delighted by this novel. Highly magical, incredibly creative, and with a couple of deep messages that are particularly important in today's sometimes callous world: be kind to yourself--there is worth and purpose for every individual, and that we choose every day to either follow a path that is light, or to submit to the dark. The best compliment I can give a book is that I didn't want to put it down--and that is definitely true of this one." "I couldn't put the book down... She has done a beautiful job setting up an intricate and layered story line with characters from the fantasy genre that had me rooting for them, and left me with wanting to know more about their past and what would happen in their future. True to the fantasy genre, this was a book that allowed me to escape to a world of the unknown. I am proud to say I have one of the first copies printed and will read and reread this story, excited for her during the unknown times of being a new author. If you like fantasy, or supporting new authors, buy The Queens Keeper!" "I was hooked from the first page. I literally could not put it down. That doesn't happen to me very often. The storyline is very compelling!" "I read a lot of fantasy books, so I figured I'd like this one - it sounded interesting enough, so I purchased it for a long plane trip. I ended up being so into it that I barely noticed the hours pass! I particularly loved Luvenia's character development because she frustrated me often. Her growth over the course of the book was refreshingly normal (she didn't all of a sudden become this perfect, strong, unwavering heroine) and I felt personally invested in her story."
