Over the last few centuries, the existence of perfect soul mates has become a legend. Dragons, just as humans, get bonded and then unbonded. That's not what I want. While my brother has brought home a bride from a noble dragon family, I want to bring home a real soul mate, and I am willing to look beyond my species. Our father, the Dragon King who's given us years of prosperity, is retiring. Between my brother and I, he will choose the strongest to be his successor. And that means, the one who has the most loyal, devoted, and brave warrior bride. Only the Temple can find my soul mate. A drop of blood, and I will have my DNA match. It will be perfect. She will be perfect for me, because the DNA test never fails. And when my one true soul mate joins me, we will sit on the throne together and be invincible. But first, she'll have to pass the three trials. The Temple, a matchmaking service for monsters, shifters, and aliens, is open for service.

Download or read book A Landscape with Dragons written by Michael D. O'Brien and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2011-05-24 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Harry Potter series of books and movies are wildly popular. Many Christians see the books as largely if not entirely harmless. Others regard them as dangerous and misleading. In his book A Landscape with Dragons, Harry Potter critic Michael O'Brien examines contemporary children's literature and finds it spiritually and morally wanting. His analysis, written before the rise of the popular Potter books and films, anticipates many of the problems Harry Potter critics point to. A Landscape with Dragons is a controversial, yet thoughtful study of what millions of young people are reading and the possible impact such reading may have on them. In this study of the pagan invasion of children's culture, O'Brien, the father of six, describes his own coming to terms with the effect it has had on his family and on most families in Western society. His analysis of the degeneration of books, films, and videos for the young is incisive and detailed. Yet his approach is not simply critical, for he suggests a number of remedies, including several tools of discernment for parents and teachers in assessing the moral content and spiritual impact of this insidious revolution. In doing so, he points the way to rediscovery of time-tested sources, and to new developments in Christian culture. If you have ever wondered why a certain children's book or film made you feel uneasy, but you couldn't figure out why, this book is just what you need. This completely revised, much expanded second edition also includes a very substantial recommended reading list of over 1,000 books for kindergarten through highschool.

Book excerpt: I'm engaged to a stranger, a man -- dragon. If I don't marry him, I'm as good as dead. I've been hiding all my life. Unlike the rest of my once powerful family, I have no magic. The immortal monster that ate them all, still hunts me. And my grandmother thinks that the only way to save me from the monster is to marry me to another monster: a dragon. Only this monster is perfection in human form: all rippling golden muscle and more gorgeous than anyone who shifts into a scaled monstrous beast has a right to be. His magic calls me, his heat enthralls me and my mind melts at the touch of his inhumanely hot hands on my skin. There is no way I can marry him. I know what he truly wants: access to my family's power. But I have no magic, no power of my own. He thinks he knows what he's getting with me. I don't play those games. It's better to run from a monster, than to marry one. I'm no dragon's treasure. Even if my heart wishes otherwise.

It's been ten years, and he can't bring himself to move on. The idea of loving someone new isn't even on his radar. In fact, every time he tries to start dating again, something happens that makes him realize just how horrible of an idea that really is. Angel has been hiding on Dragon Isle for months, trying to escape from the hex her sister put on her. The spell makes it terribly difficult for her to do anything at all, yet the only way to break it is for her to fall in love. Angel's sister thought she was being clever and giving Angel the push she needed to find love, but all she really did was drain all of her energy, and now her life. The hex was supposed to dissolve after one of the people involved in the spell died. Well, Angel's sister died weeks ago, and the hex still seems to be strong. It makes it difficult to focus, and the headaches it brings are wildly out of control. The worst part of the hex, though, is that it makes every dragon shifter on the damn island look like a delicious treat. When Colton walks into the restaurant where she's been hiding out, Angel realizes that all bets are off. She needs a dragon. She needs that dragon. But will jumping into a fake marriage be enough to break the hex?
