Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE 2023 AURORA AWARD FOR BEST YA NOVEL WINNER OF THE 2023 JURIED IAP AWARD FOR BEST YA NOVEL Vanishing street kids. An ancient evil. The end of the world. Our only hope? A hero who can't leave home. At seventeen, Will Dreycott is a superhero…in his dreams. And in yours. Eight years ago, Will's parents, shady dealers in ancient artifacts, disappeared on a jungle expedition. Will, the sole survivor, returned home with no memory of what happened, bringing a gift…and a curse. The gift? Will can walk in our dreams. At night in Dream, Will hunts for criminals—and his parents. During the day, his Dream Rider comic, about a superhero no one knows is real, has made Will rich. The curse? Severe agoraphobia. Will can't go outside. So he makes his home a skyscraper with everything he needs in life—everything but the freedom to walk the streets of his city. Case, an orphan Will's age, survives on those streets with her younger brother, Fader. Survives because she too has a gift. She hears voices warning her of danger. And Fader? Well, he fades. When street kids start vanishing, the Dream Rider joins the hunt. Will’s search becomes personal when Case breaks into his tower to escape her own abduction. Fader isn't so lucky. As Will and Case search for Fader and the missing kids, an unlikely romance grows between the boy with everything and the girl with nothing except the freedom Will longs for. But as they push deeper into the mystery, they confront an ancient power feeding on these forgotten kids to restore itself. And once restored, no one in the world will be safe. To defeat this creature, Will must do the impossible. Go outside.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells of the pony ride to an awakening and other stories of the Spirit. Encounters of an otherworldly kind happen to many people. My efforts are to describe some of the spiritual experiences that we may encounter from early childhood, adolescence, early adulthood, and then maturity, retirement unto renunciation, and then consciousness beyond death. We are closest to the Spirit at the beginning of our life, just entering incarnation from the Spirit, and at the end of our life, as we prepare to return to the Spirit. Sharing some of my psychic experiences and a few stories of my friends and family may serve as a guide for you in finding some similarities in these with your own experiences to reinforce the trust in these experiences as real and not imagined. We come from the Spirit and will return to the Spirit. There is nothing to fear from our teachers and ancestors in communicating with the Spirit to give us guidance, wisdom, and vision in this oftentimes difficult earthly life experience or to answer our questions. As we unfold our development going forward with open eyes and mind, we find that the truth unfolds and becomes more refined, like a lotus flower.

Book excerpt: The Grail Rider is a spiritual memoir born from a life-altering Shamanic Journey inspired by the overlighting wisdom of the Christos Sophia. Throughout the ceremony, the blue fire of Divinity consumed all falsities of Self, infusing Inaiya with an all embracing love that suspended her in Grace. While she lay motionless on the forest floor, Inaiya communes with her Family of Light and is downloaded with a vivid, multi-dimensional transmission that illuminates the seeding of Universal Christ Consciousness, encoded to blossom within her and the hearts of all beings at this unprecedented epoch in time. Inaiya is shown how life on Earth would be brought back into balance through each being undergoing the inner alchemy of the Divine Marriage. Inaiya, along with humanity, was at a vital crossroads, where her destiny called her irresistibly forth to embark upon an initiatory journey and follow a chain of synchronicities that would unveil the true nature of the Beloved. You are invited to venture along with Inaiya through the mythic Grail lines of Glastonbury, the French Pyrenees, Mediterranean Coast, Italy and Greece as she traces and re-discovers the richly encoded wisdom and timeless transmissions of the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine as they rise, newly empowered to usher in an awakened New Earthunified in Oneness, sovereignty and resounding beauty. The Grail Rider is not only a holographic travel adventure woven with cosmic codes of light, it is an eternal love story and quest of the Soul, that magically unveils an alchemical treasure map that is altogether paradigm shifting. Steeped in humility, humour, and the transparent quandaries of a modern day Priestess, The Grail Rider is an offering of love, here to awaken and inspire all those who are called to return to the heart of the wild Divine.

Download or read book The Rider of Blue Horse written by Rajendra Mohan Bhatnagar and published by Diamond Pocket Books Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 2024-09-03 with total page 605 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rider of Blue Horse (Neele Ghore ka Sawar) is a novel based on the sparkling and heroic life of globally well-known Maharana Pratap of Mewar, who fought a long war with the unequal mighty army of Mughal Emperor Akbar, who wanted to bow down Mewar. Maharana Pratap lit a light of freedom, pride, and self-respect among the people of Mewar, inspiring the nation's struggle for freedom in the time to come. The author has successfully attempted to describe how a great hero of a nation, a great son of the soil like Maharana Pratap, attempts to thwart the mighty foreign forces who were ready to succumb to the freedom and pride of Mewar. The author approaches such gallant psyche and internal conflict while facing the struggle from a different angle, which has never been described anywhere else with such minute details. He also exposes the dual character of the Emperor and his Turk and Rajput Mansabdars side by side, making the novel much more interesting for the readers.

Download or read book A Ride Through Faerie Other Poems written by Clay Franklin Johnson and published by Gothic Keats Press. This book was released on 2021-12-10 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Ride Through Faerie & Other Poems is Clay Franklin Johnson’s debut collection of poetry in honor of John Keats on the bicentennial year of his tragic death in 1821. Clay’s poems, influenced by the darker side of Romanticism, capture atmospheres of nightmarish dreamscapes, often easing broodingly into “night-worlds” of otherworldly beauty, painting phantasmal scenes of visionary imagery, vivid with wondrous landscapes of the supernatural sublime, alive with “night-creatures” that exist in duality between dark and light, between death and life, and between this world and what waits on the other side. Clay’s poetry is obsessive, haunted by phantasms, ghosts of guilt, regret, longing, memories of lost loved ones, and possesses a particular penchant for that brooding, melancholy aesthetic of Gothic literature. The collection is passionately inspired by Clay’s travels, containing poems of night-wanderings among the Gothic ruins of Whitby Abbey, a piece of macabre decadence written during a cold winter living in Edinburgh, and even a spiritual retelling of the faery Mélusine inspired by a Shelleyan sort of illusion upon the enchanted waters of Asturian seas that whispers with illusory voices and hallucinatory madness. Clay has collaborated with the artist Eli John who has produced evocative illustrations for leading genre publishers in both the US and UK. Eli’s stunning artwork in this collection, created by densely layering elements of photography, traditional drawing, painting, and collage, has brought brilliant visual illustration to Clay’s poetry, capturing haunting atmospheres and night-worlds in poems such as “Lines Written by Moonlight at Whitby Abbey”, “The Fires of Ecstasy at Samhuinn”, “My Little Green Secret”, and “Edinburgh Ecstasies”.
