Book excerpt: "Wonderful . . . J. V. Jones is a striking writer." So says Robert Jordan, the author of The Wheel of Time epic fantasy series. And Jones lives up to that praise in the highly charged epic adventure of Ash March and Raif Sevrance, two outcasts whose fate are entwined by ancient prophecies and need, in the cold, dark world that threatens to be torn asunder by a war to end all wars. Isolated by their birthrights, they are but two who fight the dreaded Endlords, and their strength and courage will be needed if the world is to be saved from darkness." Raif, wrongly accused and cut off from his clan by the treachery of their new headsman, has a talent for killing that is part of his curse and his burden. But he bears another burden of greater weight. Ash is a sacred warrior to the Sull, an ancient race whose numbers have declined. Raised as a foundling, never knowing her true history, she must learn to accept the terrible gifts of her heritage. But as Ash learns more of her greater fate, Raif's task looms dark and desperate, for he must journey through the nightmare realm of the Want, a place where even the Sull now fear to tread. For deep within the Want is the Fortress of Grey Ice, and there he must heal the breach in the Blindwall that already threatens the world. Should he fail, not even Ash's powers can save them. . . . At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Book excerpt: Love soothes the deepest of scars. Minerva Bellingham is at her wits’ end. Her younger brother, Simon, will have them penniless and on the streets if his extravagant gambling habit isn’t curtailed. An enormous debt to Lord Rafe Drummond is the final indignity. Signing over her dowry is their only choice. Until Lord Drummond suggests something much more scandalous. She can keep her dowry-in exchange for the Bellinghams working three months as a housemaid and stable boy. Scarred from his service to the Crown, Rafe recognizes the young Simon Bellingham has the makings of a good duke. Minerva is a different story. Her pure, delicate beauty only underscores Rafe’s tarnished, bleak soul. Yet he delights in cracking Minerva’s icy reserve to reveal a fiery, stubborn woman. And Minerva discovers the gruff master of Wintermarsh has the heart of a poet. But before they can find a future safe in each other’s arms, a menace from Simon’s licentious past slithers back into their lives, forcing Rafe to plan the most important rescue mission of his life. Warning: Contains a paragon of the beau monde who gets the hang of polishing silver, and a master of the house who’d like her to make his bed-preferably with him in it. Also passion unleashed with the mere touch of a finger. Readers are encouraged to swoon. Author’s Note: This is a republication with identical content/cover.

Download or read book Debussy Bergson and the Music of la duree written by Charles Frantz and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-21 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Frederick Frantz provides a quantitative and qualitative analysis of Debussy’s music through the lens of Bergson’s philosophical perspective of durée, revealing his "revolution" in musical time. In fin-de-siècle Paris, Debussy was revolutionizing musical time while Bergson was establishing a metaphysics that challenged the notion of measured or spatialized time. Bergson argued that real time or durée could be grasped only through intuition as opposed to analysis. Debussy eschewed analysis of music, declaring that separating it into parts was better left to engineers. Debussy’s music and Bergson’s durée were conceived and imagined in the environs of nature. The cycle of seasons, the gracefulness of a blooming flower, or a gentle breeze all suggest continuity, flow, and uninterrupted rhythm. The time of nature is the time of Debussy’s music and Bergson’s durée. Debussy’s use of open forms and Golden Sections create a time world of an expanded present, never ceasing. Bergson’s perception of real time is ever-changing, bringing the past into the present and open to unforeseen novelty. This book is intended primarily for scholars in the disciplines of musicology, music theory, and philosophy and can be used as a text for upper-level undergraduate or graduate courses in musicology or music theory.

With no way of seeking him out, they turn their attention to surviving in a town far different from anything they have experienced before. For some, it is a matter of learning who they are.

Download or read book The Ledge written by Richard Curtis Hauschild and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roland Heinz has lived a life of anonymity in his hometown of Pipe, Wisconsin, but in the literary circles of the wider world he is a god. Twice winner of the Pulitzer Prize for literature, the recluse author in declining health, decides to grant a rare interview to a magazine edited by his long-time friend, Harry Stompe; but with a clause. Heinz has handpicked his interviewer, Molly Costello to come to Wisconsin from Boston and record what may be his last testament. Travelling with Molly is famous photographer-to-the- stars, Mike Gabler. What follows is a special week that none of them could have envisioned. Molly is urged by Roland to send for her two young daughters, which seems an odd request, but it is all part of a story line that Roland is mysteriously creating for these real life characters. What is not planned is Mike's lightning romance with local bartender, Carrie Stirling. As the interview begins to unspool, Roland's health is deteriorating rapidly. He tells his tale with flashbacks to his previous marriage and the havoc he wrought upon his long-gone wife, Karin and her sister, Meg Bollander, who still lives in the farm house above Roland's on The Ledge. Meg's twisted feelings for Roland are a toxic mixture of her eternal loathing for the younger man who chose her sister over herself and the older man who writes like an angel. Roland Heinz's last interview reveals how he has emerged from the depths of alcoholism and self-loathing into the light of acclaimed writing. We learn along the way how books can change the lives of people who take the time to read them. In a surprise ending, Molly, her children, Mike, Carrie, and Meg all have their futures wrapped around the last days and legacy of Roland Heinz. The Ledge is also an endearing look into the culture and mores of South Central Wisconsin, particularly, the Holyland between Lakes Winnebago and Michigan, where Friday fish fries and Old Fashions are the staples of life. Richard Curtis Hauschild is a novelist and screenwriter currently living in North Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. He was born in Elmhurst, Illinois, grew up in Libertyville, Illinois, was educated in Lincoln, Nebraska (Nebraska Wesleyan University), and then later was thoroughly corrupted in Hollywood, California. Richard began his writing career as lyric writer for the late-great songwriter/guitarist Jim Krueger, having written words to numerous Krueger songs including the title track of Krueger's Sweet Salvation album. He also has had song credits with Dave Mason, DFK, and The Happy Schnapps Combo. After 19 years in L.A. film production he moved to Wisconsin where he found the solitude and inspiration to write five novels and numerous screenplays. The Ledge is Richard's first novel set in the Fond du Lac area and its sequel, Jersey Flats is nearing completion.
