Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The magical saga of the women behind King Arthur's throne. “A monumental reimagining of the Arthurian legends . . . reading it is a deeply moving and at times uncanny experience. . . . An impressive achievement.”—The New York Times Book Review In Marion Zimmer Bradley's masterpiece, we see the tumult and adventures of Camelot's court through the eyes of the women who bolstered the king's rise and schemed for his fall. From their childhoods through the ultimate fulfillment of their destinies, we follow these women and the diverse cast of characters that surrounds them as the great Arthurian epic unfolds stunningly before us. As Morgaine and Gwenhwyfar struggle for control over the fate of Arthur's kingdom, as the Knights of the Round Table take on their infamous quest, as Merlin and Viviane wield their magics for the future of Old Britain, the Isle of Avalon slips further into the impenetrable mists of memory, until the fissure between old and new worlds' and old and new religions' claims its most famous victim.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hidden by the Mists of Time... It happened so long ago before the Annunaki were born. A Power among the gods resented Life and persecuted the first race to become self-aware and intelligent. Chased from their homeworld, these First Ones became wanderers in the Galaxy, in search of a Home. Ava Diva, a young extra-terrestrial woman, is telling us their story. It is a story of terror and hardship and of an endless seeming journey through space where planets are not always what they seem. The wanderers must fight for their survival under dire circumstances. But Ava and her people do not give up and continue to carry the Flame of Life despite the contrary fate written by a hostile god. The tale is a prequel to "The Saga of the Annunaki", a series that describes the tribulations of the race of extra-terrestrials who have colonized Earth. Tragedies, cosmic cataclysms, a great flood... they have seen it all. But where did this race originate? The answer lies in the events reported in the Prequel "Before the Beginning" and in this tale "Hidden by the Mists of Time", an intermezzo that happened right before the Annunaki came into being. Their story began long ago, in another galaxy...

Download or read book Poetry written by Kalman Dubov and published by Kalman Dubov. This book was released on 2021-12-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In late 1994, I did a 10-day spiritual retreat on the Alabama-Georgia border. The retreat setting was lovely, creating an atmosphere where introspection and self-assessment was possible. The spiritual journey I took at that time had many effects, one of which was my writing poetry. Poetry requires a quiet setting, where the subconscious flow of words and images are possible. The interference of common life, with daily actions randomized into habituated cycles inhibits the flow of subconscious material. I intentionally did not allow the day to be marred by common sounds we face and deal with day. It is only in that total silence that the words will flow, unhindered by pedestrian pursuits. That retreat had many effects on me, but its energy was rare, and not soon repeated. The verses I wrote at the time are presented here as is, without change, or later emendation. They are therefore, authentic to the moment, without additional material to convey a larger flow or growth. This was a moment, in the space of a few months, where the words came and expressed themselves directly from the heart. To date, this is my only book on poetry. I had never received nor intend to pursue, any formal study of this genre. I believe each of us has a song within and it is our task to discover and bring it into the light. And when the words are authentic to ourselves, we express it with joy, touching the cornerstone of our soul, irrespective if the words reflect sentiments of harshness or difficulty. Each of us suffers but the song within remains true. Poetry is therefore a special genre, speaking from and to the heart in rhyme, meter and a form all its own.

What commences as something pleasant becomes a nightmare of experiences that change her forever. Several large Ravens await her and under the instructions of the Mother Goddess, awaken her to her Destiny. From this time forth she undergoes dreams of such a horrific nature that she struggles to maintain her sense of who she is. As a trainee Witch, with the help of her high Priestess the Lady Moonfeather the Third, who initiates her, she jumps from one adventure to another. She finds that she not only can communicate with these ancient forces that she possesses the gift of the Dragon, the gift of fire, that if provoked can rise unaided and, that she can project it through her fingertips. In time, as she struggles in the two worlds that she resides in, her concentration lapses and she struggles to be a good student and receives very damaging marks that will deny her entrance to Oxford where her parents were Professors in the Archeology Department.

As she is feeling poorly, she accepts and, her Professor allows her to write two further essays that if she receives two A+ pluses he will reinstate her excellent credibility.

Book excerpt: **ON SALE FOR A LIMITED TIME!** Meg had thought that taking a commuter flight from Pasco, Washington to Boise, Idaho would be a simple matter. But nothing is simple for Meg when it comes to travel, and especially not when she finds herself in the Middle Ages again instead of in a plane crash on a mountain side in Oregon. And when the pilot takes off without her in a quest to return to the twenty-first century, Meg will need every last bit of maturity and knowledge she gained in the sixteen years she spent in the modern world--to survive even a day in this one. Winds of Time is a short novel in the After Cilmeri series: A note from the author: This story was started many years ago, as part of Footsteps in Time. When it came down to it, however, the story didn't fit with what was happening with David and Anna, and had to be put aside. Happily, I am now able to share the story of Meg's return to the Middle Ages. Thus, Winds of Time takes place between Part 1 and Part 2 of Footsteps in Time. I think you will enjoy Winds of Time more if you read Footsteps in Time first.

Download or read book Hidden Mercy written by Michael J. O'Loughlin and published by Broadleaf Books . This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1980s and 1990s, the height of the AIDS crisis in the United States, was decades ago now, and many of the stories from this time remain hidden: A Catholic nun from a small Midwestern town packs up her life to move to New York City, where she throws herself into a community under assault from HIV and AIDS. A young priest sees himself in the many gay men dying from AIDS and grapples with how best to respond, eventually coming out as gay and putting his own career on the line. A gay Catholic with HIV loses his partner to AIDS and then flees the church, focusing his energy on his own health rather than fight an institution seemingly rejecting him. Set against the backdrop of the HIV and AIDS epidemic of the late twentieth century and the Catholic Church's crackdown on gay and lesbian activists, journalist Michael O'Loughlin searches out the untold stories of those who didn't look away, who at great personal cost chose compassion--even as he seeks insight for LGBTQ people of faith struggling to find a home in religious communities today. This is one journalist's--gay and Catholic himself--compelling picture of those quiet heroes who responded to human suffering when so much of society--and so much of the church--told them to look away. These pure acts of compassion and mercy offer us hope and inspiration as we continue to confront existential questions about what it means to be Americans, Christians, and human beings responding to those most in need.
