Book excerpt: This is the hard cover trade of Witchman Book 1 Issues 1-5. “The time has come for another one of us to leave the Circle...” That’s what she said, as if it were nothing. But only one other Cadabran has ever left the forest before. For Cadabrans, a small collection of humans raised deep in the woods by elves and taught some of their magic, the human world that exists outside of the forest is as mysterious and threatening to them as the rest of their kind would find the enchanted, troll, pixie and beast infested woods to be. But there is a new enemy to enter Cadabra- goblins; seven of which represent an ancient evil. The goblins are growing in number and power. In fear, the Cadabrans agree to send one member of their circle out of the woods to search for answers regarding the goblin’s motives and weaknesses. They select Rowen of Autumn Fire. Rowen never asked for much in life. Enjoying the simple things and keeping to himself, he never connected much with the other Cadabrans. So the fact that they chose him to ostracize with this mission shouldn’t have come as a surprise, though the weight of this daunting task has Rowen floored. He cannot even imagine what his future holds in store. A job in the harbor village of Grayven, an angry ice demoness for a landlady, a ghost for a roommate, a debt to a mischevious pixie and a price on his head issued by the Mayor of Grayven himself are all distractions Rowen must work through to find the answers he is searching for. Who can he trust, and who is trying to trick him in this strange new world? Rowen must sort friend from foe and learn to trust himself if he is to survive this ordeal. When he comes to the realization that there is more at stake than just his family back in Cadabra, will Rowen step up and become the hero everybody expects him to be?

Cody Hoyt, although a brilliant cop, is an alcoholic struggling with two months of sobriety when his friend Hank Winters is found burned to death in a remote mountain cabin. At first it looks like the suicide of a man who’s fallen off the wagon, but Cody knows Hank better than that. As Cody digs deeper into the case, all roads lead to foul play. After years of bad behavior with his department, Cody is in no position to be investigating a homicide, but he will stop at nothing to find Hank’s killer. When clues found at the scene link the murderer to an outfitter leading tourists on a multiday wilderness horseback trip into the remote corners of Yellowstone National Park—a pack trip that includes his son Justin—Cody is desperate to get on their trail and stop the killer before the group heads into the wild. In a fatal cat-and-mouse game, where it becomes apparent the murderer is somehow aware of Cody’s every move, Cody treks into the wilderness to stop a killer hell-bent on destroying the only important thing left in his life. *BONUS CONTENT: This edition of Back of Beyond includes a new introduction from the author and a discussion guide
Download or read book Kauai written by Edward Joesting and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 1988-02-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here finally is a readable, thoroughly researched, and generously illustrated history of the island of Kauai. Edward Joesting tells for the first time the story of one of the most intriguing and least known of the Hawaiian Islands. His account begins with the prehistoric origins of the island and concludes with the annexation of Hawaii in 1898. Kauai describes the early emergence of Kauai as an island separate and distinctive from the other islands of Hawaii. It recounts the coming of Western man, the failure of King Kamehameha to conquer the island, and the ultimate incorporation of the island into the Hawaiian kingdom. Joesting also includes in his story the destructive impact of the sandalwood and whaling trades, and the subsequent rise of an economy based on sugar cultivation. His story comes to an end with the demise of the Hawaiian monarchy and the quiet revolution that occurred when Hawaii became a territory of the United States. Historical documents not previously used bring new information and fresh perspectives to this book. The result is a level-headed, engaging look at Kauai. Kauai: The Separate Kingdom is certain to become the authoritative history of the island long regarded by many as the most beautiful in the Hawaiian archipelago.

Download or read book Tove Jansson Life Art Words written by Boel Westin and published by Sort of Books. This book was released on 2013-12-18 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Finnish-Swedish writer and artist Tove Jansson achieved worldwide fame as the creator of the Moomin stories, written between 1945 and 1970 and still in print in more than twenty languages. However, the Moomins were only a part of her prodigious output. Already admired in Nordic art circles as a painter, cartoonist and illustrator, she would go on to write a series of classic novels and short stories. She remains Scandinavia's best loved author. Tove Jansson's work reflected the tenets of her life: her love of family (and special bond with her mother), of nature, and her insistence on freedom to pursue her art. Love and work was the motto she chose for herself and her approach to both was joyful and uncompromising. If her relationships with men foundered on her ambivalence towards marriage, those with women came as a revelation, especially the love and companionship she found with her long-time partner, the artist Tuulikki Pietilä, with whom she lived on the solitary island of Klovharu. In this meticulously researched, authorised biography, Boel Westin draws together the many threads of Jansson's life: from the studies interrupted to help her family; the dark shades of war and her emergence as an artist with a studio of her own; to the years of Moomin-mania, and later novel writing. Based on numerous conversations with Tove, and unprecedented access to her journals, letters and personal archives, Tove Jansson: Life, Art, Words offers a rare and privileged insight into the world of a writer whom Philip Pullman described, simply, as 'a genius'.

Book excerpt: No one warned Shane or Agnes that it was going to be a red wedding. It's eight months after the first, bloody, wedding at Two Rivers and things have calmed down and seven weddings have been hosted without a problem. But no longer. Bring on an eclectic hitwoman, an amiable Duke, an icy Duchess, a lot of sharp swords, a crazed ex-Duchess, a computer hacker and a dog named Rhett, and you've got a recipe for an action-packed, hilarious novel about the perils and promises of commitment. Shane has no idea as he's hidden on a snowy hillside with his sniper rifle on a job for the Organization, how the mission connects to a pending wedding. The operation goes to hell and he's rescued by his back-up; a younger, diminutive operative named Phoebe, who is armed with a short, but very sharp sword and an even sharper tongue. A 'small, intimate wedding' is what was promised. But too late he learns that it involves fate of a small, but powerful European kingdom. At stake? Not just Shane's life and Two Rivers, but his future with Agnes and the Organization. For Phoebe, an up and comer in the Organization, it's her chance to show what's she capable of. But standing in the way is the crazed ex-wife of the Duke, a mountain of a man armed with a very big sword, and a traitor within the ranks of the Organization itself. Who will be left standing and what will their future look like?
