Download or read book The Serpent s Tale written by Gregory McNamee and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “We travel the world,” writes Gregory McNamee, “and wherever we go there are snake stories to entertain us.” Here are some fifty diverse and unusual accounts of serpents from cultures across time and around the globe: snakes that talk, jump, and dance; snakes that transform into other creatures; snakes that just . . . watch. Many selections are drawn from the rich oral traditions of peoples in every clime that supports reptiles, from the Akimel O’odham of North America to the Mensa Bet-Abrahe of Africa to the Mungkjan of Australia. Included as well are such writings as prayers from the Egyptian Book of the Dead, fairy tales collected by the Brothers Grimm, a poem by Emily Dickinson, and a journal entry by Charles Darwin. What we read about snakes in The Serpent’s Tale is just as fascinating for what it says about us, for there always will be something primordial about our connection to them. That bond is evident in these stories: in how we associate snakes with nature’s elemental forces, how we attribute special qualities to their eyes and skin, and how they preside over all phases of our existence, from creation to death to resurrection.
Download or read book The Magarisse written by PG Rando and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE MAGARISSE may at first seem like any ordinary fantasy novel: in another world, the Magarisse, a brotherhood of magicians and generals, once fought to defeat the power-hungry Sharadar. Their leader is dead. His son has gone in search of help from someone who was left behind long ago... This much should sound familiar to any experienced reader of the fantasy genre. But the avid reader gets something new, unexpected as he delves further into the pages of THE MAGARISSE: the source of magical energy in the world is being quickly drained, creating a sense of desperation and instigating a search for a new magical source. This sub-plot is, of course, inspired by the current situation of natural resources on Earth. Again THE MAGARISSE strays off the beaten path of literature in regards to its villain. The growth of the villain can be tracked alongside that of the heroes, flipping the classic ´coming-of-age´ novel on its head. The level of detail in this novel makes you feel like you are in each scene, standing alongside the characters that fight their way through the end of one war... and into the beginning of another. THE MAGARISSE will engage you with adventure, humor, romance, suspense, magic, and surprises. It is the result of a three-year project by a high school student who moves the fantasy genre in a new direction by veering away from many widely accepted tropes while still maintaining a recognizable fantasy feeling.

With the wise guardian Kestrel by his side and the resourceful tech-whiz Akari providing backup, Jin faces brutal battles, mind-bending puzzles, and the whispers of his own fragmented memories. But an unexpected message emerges – the Serpents of the Sun, a rumored clan with knowledge of the serpent's legacy, offer their aid. Will they become allies, or do they harbor their own hidden agenda? The fate of the world hangs in the balance as the Steel Serpent embarks on a perilous journey to the Himalayas, seeking the secrets that lie within the Serpents of the Sun's jade temple. Unravel the mysteries of the Serpent's Eye, experience the clash between light and darkness, and witness the rise of the Steel Serpent in this epic saga of power, redemption, and the fight for a brighter future.
