Book excerpt: “Equal parts dazzling fantasy, swashbuckling adventure, and tender coming-of-age tale” from the author of the Costa Book of the Year, The Lie Tree (Publishers Weekly, starred review). The gods are dead. Fifty years ago, they turned on one another and tore each other apart. Nobody knows why. Now, even coin-sized scraps of dead god are worth a fortune because of the strange powers they’re said to possess. But few are brave enough to dive and search for them. When fifteen-year-old Hark finds the still-beating heart of one of these deities, he’ll risk everything to keep it out of the hands of smugglers, scientists, and cults who would kill for its power. Because Hark needs the heart if he wants to save the life of his best friend, Jelt. But the power of a god was not meant for human hands. With the heart, Jelt begins to eerily transform, and Hark will have to decide if he can stay loyal to his friend—or what he’s willing to sacrifice to save him. “Hardinge is assured and sophisticated in her exploration of the dark temptations of power.” —The Wall Street Journal “Monsters and mortals collide in this fantasy adventure that explores the hypnotic allure of fear, the adamant grip of the past, and the redeeming power of stories . . . Thrilling.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “Glorious thematic complexity inhabits a wildly inventive world, with the menacing roils of a dangerous sea threatening the archipelago and touches of steampunk rounding out the fantastical elements . . .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If You Lived Here You'd Be Famous by Now is an insider’s collection of funny and warmhearted stories about coming of age in the Los Angeles suburb famed for birthing the Kardashian-Jenners and the Bling Ring For Via Bleidner, transferring to Calabasas High from the private Catholic school she’s attended since second grade is a culture shock, not to mention absolutely lonely. Suddenly thrust into an unfamiliar world of celebrities, affluenza, and McMansions, Via takes a page from Cameron Crowe and pretends she’s on a journalism assignment, taking notes on her classmates and jotting down bits of overheard gossip. Getting through high school in Calabasas is something else—from Kim Kardashian endorsing the students’ favorite hidden lunch spot, to the theater program hiring a famous dog to play Elle Woods' Chihuahua in its production of Legally Blonde, and Kanye trying to take control of your school to make it the very first YEEZY institution. But instead of floating through high school detached from her peers, Via finds that putting herself out there—for her writing, of course—just might have been exactly what she needed. She unexpectedly finds an eclectic group of friends to call her own, including a multi-multi-millionaire, a wild-card throwback intent on going viral, a former Disney actor, and a doughnut-dealing madman. With wit, candor, and sharp observations, twenty-one-year-old Via grounds the surreal glamour of Calabasas with reflections on her own coming-of-age, sharing her teenage misadventures as she struggles to fit in, faces crushing social pressure, and eventually makes her own way.

Download or read book An Introduction To Drum Grooves written by lewis pragasam and published by dynamic publication. This book was released on 2018-09-28 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generally, in most performance scenarios, drummers are called-in/hired for one main particular purpose - to play solid grooves with good time and with a certain amount of creativity. This is the primary role of a drummer in most band or ensemble settings. In my opinion, the path to being a drummer with a successful musical career is all about having a sense of solid time, good knowledge and vocabulary of drum grooves in a variety of music styles and genres. The way I look at it, drumming is an art form, for example fine art or martial arts..in a way. As such, any art form has basic skills that need to be learned/studied with some kind of framework to work with. The basic skills or fundamentals are a prerequisite to setting ‘play’ in motion. The stronger your understanding of the basics and fundamentals, the journey in the development of study and play will be easier. The idea and concept of this book is to guide and tutor the budding drummer to get a grasp of the foundations and fundamentals of groove drumming in a variety of music styles. This book is tailor-made specifically for the sole purpose of rhythm study, hence there is no reference to or material on technical development. However, having said that, of course some measure of technical ability is required to pay drum beats convincingly. But here it’ll be more about hand & feet coordination as opposed to being able to play fancy fills and tricky sticking patterns. However, feel free to add your own fills (rolls) while morphing from one rhythm to another but it is imperative you stay aware of timing issues like rushing or dragging..work towards making smooth transitions.This tutorial will address the basic rhythms/beats of the following music styles: Rock, Shue,Bossa Nova, Funk, Cha-Cha, Samba, Hip-Hop and Slow Rock. The grooves are organised in groups of 15 variations per rhythm study, so there are a total of 120 drum grooves arranged in sequence for the beginner/ intermediate drum student. Notations of the various goose studies are included to give a clearer picture of the respective parts that make up the groove.

Book excerpt: When you lose your voice, who will speak for you? When it all seems hopeless, how do you get through each day? In the New York Times bestseller Ghost Boy, Martin Pistorius tells the harrowing story of his return to life through the healing power of love and faith. In January 1988, a happy, healthy twelve-year-old Martin Pistorius came home from school with a sore throat. Soon, he was sleeping all day, refusing meals, and starting to lose his voice. His doctors were mystified. Within eighteen months, his voice fell silent and his developing mind became trapped inside a body he couldn't control. Martin's parents were told that the unknown degenerative disease he was struggling with would mean that he had less than two years to live. He felt invisible--like a ghost of himself. The stress and heartache shook his family to the core, bringing his parents to the brink of separation. Their boy was gone--or so they thought. Martin started to come back to life. He couldn't make a sign or a sound, but he'd become aware of the world around him again and was finally finding his way back to himself. In these pages, you'll hear the highs and lows of Martin's journey from his own perspective, including: A family's resilience in the face of hardship The consequences of misdiagnosis The gift of a wild imagination Ghost Boy shares the beautiful, heart-wrenching story of a life reclaimed, a business created, a family transformed, and a new love that's blossomed. Martin's emergence from his own darkness invites us to celebrate our own lives and fight for a better life for those around us.
