Book excerpt: In the final book of The Dragon's Fate series, Meru is a half-human, half-ondine hybrid, created by the Gods and prophesied to help save the world. His name means "water," and that is his primary power, though he can use all five elements. Immortal like his father, Meru has had over half a century to master both magic and more mundane forms of power while the Dragon Wizards and their powerful legacy have shaped his life. And the time to use that training looms close, as a formidable evil has taken root in the Southern Kingdoms.Meru remains reluctant to act, however, because his prophesied fate only points toward violence and death. But his destiny may be one thing that he cannot overcome, especially when an impatient God abruptly changes his outlook. Or when Meru's past comes back to betray him in a way that he never expected.

Download or read book Does Fortune Favor Dragons written by Noel D. Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do seemingly irrational superstitions persist? We analyze the widely held belief among Asians that children born in the Year of the dragon are superior. We use pooled cross section data from the U.S. Current Population Survey to show that Asian immigrants to the United States born in the 1976 year of the dragon are more educated than comparable immigrants from non-dragon years. In contrast, no such educational effect is noticeable for dragon-year children in the general U.S. population. We also provide evidence that Asian mothers of dragon year babies are more educated, richer, and slightly older than Asian mothers of non-dragon year children. This suggests that belief in the greater superiority of dragon-year children is self-fulfilling since the demographic characteristics associated with parents who are more willing and able to adjust their birthing strategies to have dragon children are also correlated with greater investment in their human capital.
