And how will this journey – and the sisters’ story – end? With the start of a new life? Or a mirror held up to the past?

Clare Furniss is one of the very best writers for young people and this new novel is her finest yet. I loved it.’ Sarah Crossan, author of Moonrise 'Gripping and heart-wrenching, the story has a tragic denouement that is almost too painful to read, but Furniss’ exquisite writing carries the reader through.'

Devastating and unsparing but full of hope and love too. It was a privilege to read it. - Candy Gourlay This book is exceptional. Years and Years meets The End We Start From for teenagers. Should be on every secondary set text list. - Joanna Nadin SO good - gripping, moving, tense, twisty and very, very necessary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He was born Henry John Deutschendorf Jr., on December 31, 1943, in Roswell, New Mexico. The general public knows him better as John Denver, trained architect, international performer, a man who sings about his experiences of living, and, in doing so, reveals his spirituality. On October 12, 1997, at the age of fifty-three, Denver died in Monterey Bay, California, in a solo airplane crash. Through the lyrics of his songs on more than sixty albums, Denver reveals his spirituality, that invisible force that motivates or inspires his personal spirit and gives insight and meaning to what he did and why he did it. This book is designed to guide the reader through an analysis of John Denver's spirituality, as it is gleaned and categorized according to major and minor themes that emerge from the lyrics of his songs. The reader is invited to experience Denver’s spirituality through a reflection section at the end of each chapter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I grew large yet I shrunk small. I rose up yet I shrunk down low. I knew this feeling well, I was entering the dream world. I stood outside of the cave of a thousand eyes and I began to feel rain pouring down on me. I lifted my hand and looked at it and it was then that I realized I was not being covered with rain drops, I was being covered with blood and this blood was that of my people that was shed during the battle to keep our homeland. The legendary battle of the removal of the Cherokee known as the Trail of Tears. Although I stand as one spirit I have lived many lifetimes. Past meets present and present meets the past. I entered the dream world hoping to find the answer and knowing I had fought many battles with the evil one and it always begins the same way, by entering the dream world where my spirit guide Nonauma awaits for the past and the present to merge and become stronger, stronger for the battle between good and evil. The dream world is universal, all beings go there but there are those few who stay longer sometimes hours,sometimes days yet have only closed their eyes for a moment. Morning Star and Olivia posses this gift and although they are two separate people they have one thing in common, they share the same spirit. Morning Star is Olivia’s past life and Olivia is Morning Stars’ future life. Together they must battle an angry entity simply called the evil one. The evil one will do anything to capture and keep the girls gift of sight. With this power he can rule many people, therefore making it easier to cause chaos and disaster. The evil one controls the bees and snakes and he uses them all to try and get an upper hand on the girls. He is much like the coyote, full of trickery. But there is one rule that even he must follow and that is he can not take this gift away from either girl they must give it to him out of their own free will. Both girls are born with a marking upon their palm, a perfect medicine wheel and this mark holds the key that can destroy the evil one. Who is the dream and who is the dreamer? Well, that is for you, the reader to decide. Although the girls are from different eras, their battle has not changed. The dream world is mystical and magical and it is a place with no boundaries. At times it is hard for both girls to know whether they are in the good dream world or the world of bad dreams where the evil one lurks, waiting for the right time to deceive the girls. Their battles are legendary amongst Morning Stars’ people but in Olivia’s world, she stands alone, isolated within the truth and it is only in the dream world that she finds freedom to use her gift without any worries of being different.
Book Synopsis Dark Sky Dreamings: an Inland Skywriters Anthology by : Merrill Findlay
Download or read book Dark Sky Dreamings: an Inland Skywriters Anthology written by Merrill Findlay and published by Interactive Publications. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you look up at a midnight sky, what do you see—mottled stars and a full Moon trying hard to compete with the street lamps for your attention? You might be situated in a city, or its sprawling suburbs, where the ever-present urban glow tends to keep your gaze horizontal, missing out on the beckoning mysteries of the Universe. This Skywriters anthology will change all that. Through the eyes and creativity of people who write about south-eastern inland Australia, we’ll redirect your vision upwards to a brighter Moon, the subtle presence of nearby planets, the cosmic spectacular of our Milky Way galaxy and those celestial bodies even further away. You’ll find inspiring stories, poems and essays by a great diversity of Australians responding to what some have called the ‘Inland Astro-Trail’, which connects rural and remote communities with world-class astronomical observatories such as those at Parkes, Siding Springs and Narrabri. Some skystories are “literary”, others intensely personal, but all are guaranteed to widen your horizons—upwards!
