Book excerpt: Some presents should stay wrapped, and some adventures should stay in the past. While Sarn recuperates from his wounds and deals with his sentient magic, a strange gift arrives without any information about who sent it or why. Only a handful people know where he’s staying now, and none would send him a gift. For his son, Ran, this present is a mystery that must be solved if he could just get his hands on it. But everyone conspires to keep it away from him until the commander of the Rangers goes in search of the dragons under the mountain. Then everyone has larger problems than where the mysterious crystal came from. Ran gets more than he bargained for when the gift does a lot more than glow. Once again, Sarn must rise from his sickbed and save his son, this time, from the clutches of a magical crystal. This cozier fantasy adventure picks up where Curse Breaker Revealed leaves off and answers the question: what will happen now that Sarn's biggest secret is revealed?

Download or read book Sheepwrecked written by Jackie Ellis and published by Random House. This book was released on 2008-09-25 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This journey through the changing seasons at Rowfoot Farm - tupping time in the autumn, winters as wet, bleak and cold here in Cumbria as elsewhere, lambing and the glories of spring, a bucolic, bee-filled Eden Valley summer with its many shows and fairs - will reveal much that you need to know about the countryside, its quirky customs and ways, and most likely a great deal that you don't. They no longer burn witches (not because they're lily-livered, it's just that getting the necessary timber from sustainable forests is a real chore). You'll find nothing here about welly-wanging either. Jackie doesn't wang her wellies, she just gets them muddy. You won't need to, of course, as this book will ensure you experience rural life vicariously and very cleanly. Along the way, Jackie bumps into friends old and new, peeps back over her shoulder every now and then to recall times past, oh and it wouldn't be her if she didn't have the occasional impassioned rant or take the odd pop at the establishment, but rest assured she's quite gentle with them. So join Jackie (and Katie the Lurcher, Blossom the Cob and Rowfoot's many other residents, four- and two-legged) as she recounts the occasional pitfall and many pleasures of running a small farm in one of the most beautiful parts of England.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, an accomplished scholar offers a painstakingly researched examination of the United States' involvement in deliberate disease spreading among native peoples in the military conquest of the West. The speculation that the United States did infect Indian populations has long been a source of both outrage and skepticism. Now there is an exhaustively researched exploration of an issue that continues to haunt U.S.-Native American relations. Barbara Alice Mann's The Tainted Gift: The Disease Method of Frontier Expansion offers riveting accounts of four specific incidents: The 1763 smallpox epidemic among native peoples in Ohio during the French and Indian War; the cholera epidemic during the 1832 Choctaw removal; the 1837 outbreak of smallpox among the high plains peoples; and the alleged 1847 poisonings of the Cayuses in Oregon. Drawing on previously unavailable sources, Mann's work is the first to give one of the most controversial questions in U.S. history the rigorous scrutiny it requires.
