Book excerpt: What Rien discovers about his past will change his future… Rien Sucat wiles his days away, bored-stiff in his small backwoods village. But soon gets more than he bargained for after he befriends a magical Phoenix, accidentally witnesses a secret necromantic ritual, and comes face to face with a league of racist, knife-wielding assassins out for his blood. Travel with Rien as he and the Phoenix journey from the unassuming Rillian village of Nyrgen through the enchanting depths of the Great Wood where the unquiet dead lurk, to the high north country of Firehall - elusive sanctuary of the Elves. Launch into an epic quest with consequences farther reaching than Rien could ever possibly imagine. Rienspel is about heart. It is about family and about how the power of love played out in everyday life often carries lasting consequences. Rien’s tale transcends the dim shadows of our own world by revealing the lingering power we all carry through how we live and treat others. It is a tale about the Story we all reside in which readers both young and young-at-heart will find compelling. As C.S. Lewis once penned for his colleague and friend J.R.R. Tolkien, so it is with Rienspel, ‘here are beauties which pierce like swords or burn like cold iron. Here is a story which will break your heart”… and re-forge it anew in Phoenix-fire.

Download or read book Trauma Filters Through written by Karen Zauder Brass and published by . This book was released on 2018-09 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens to a family when the first generation has suffered intense trauma and lives with PTSD? How can a family recover and move on from irrational bullying and hatred today? Karen Z. Brass believes no one should ever stand silent in the face of hatred. While sharing her father's story of survival from the holocaust, she weaves in her thoughts concerning what it means to be a bystander who by their inaction contributes to the abuse. Brass believes that one must eliminate discrimination, as it is cruel, irrational, and only flourishes when bystanders are present and do not act. Brass promotes being a "Standupster," working to eliminate bullying in today's school environments, work environments and other community centers. She began her web site, www.standupsters.com and her Facebook page of the same name to make what she teaches more accessible to teachers, parents, students and communities alike. Hatred of others' differences must be stopped; together we are stronger because of our unique differences. She also teaches why it is important to put an end to stereotyping, selecting scapegoats, and the proliferation of racism and prejudice. Brass' goal in writing Trauma Filters Through is to share her personal history of being the daughter of a holocaust survivor and to explore how the trauma is passed down through multiple generations. This is why our history is important; it affects all of us, and the ripple effect is both deep and wide. It is our responsibility to bear witness to the past and drive change through evolved thinking, by taking actions to prevent continuing genocides and abusive behavior in our future.
