Book excerpt: In this epic debut fantasy, inspired by Renaissance France, an outcast finds herself bound to a disgraced lord and entangled in his plot to overthrow the king. Perfect for fans of Grave Mercy and Red Queen! Brienna desires only two things: to master her passion and to be chosen by a patron. Growing up in Valenia at the renowned Magnalia House should have prepared her. While some are born with a talent for one of the five passions—art, music, dramatics, wit, and knowledge—Brienna struggled to find hers until she chose knowledge. However, Brienna’s greatest fear comes true: she is left without a patron. Months later, her life takes an unexpected turn when a disgraced lord offers her patronage. Suspicious of his intent, she reluctantly accepts. But there is much more to his story, for there is a dangerous plot to overthrow the king of Maevana—the rival kingdom of Valenia—and restore the rightful queen, and her magic, to the throne. With war brewing, Brienna must choose which side she will remain loyal to: passion or blood. Plus don't miss the thrilling sequel, The Queen's Resistance!

Book excerpt: For fans of Red Queen and Grave Mercy comes the captivating sequel to the Renaissance France-inspired epic fantasy The Queen’s Rising. Brienna is a mistress of knowledge and is beginning to settle into her role as the daughter of the once disgraced lord, Davin MacQuinn. Though she’d just survived a revolution that will return a queen to the throne, she faces yet another challenge: acceptance by the MacQuinns. But as Queen Isolde Kavanagh’s closest confidant, she’ll have to balance serving her father’s House as well as her country. Then there’s Aodhan Morgan, formerly known as Cartier Évariste, who is adjusting to the stark contrast between his pre-rebellion life in Valenia and his current one as lord of a fallen House. As he attempts to restore the Morgane name, he let his mind wander—what if he doesn’t have to raise his House alone? What if Brienna could stand by his side? But Brienna and Cartier must put their feelings aside, as there are more vital tasks at hand—the Lannons' trial, forging alliances, and ensuring that no one halts the queen’s coronation. Resistance is rumbling among the old regime’s supporters, who are desperate to find a weakness in the rebels’ forces. And what makes one more vulnerable than love?

Download or read book Dancing Queen written by Melinda J. Gough and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under glittering lights in the Louvre palace, the French court ballets danced by Queen Marie de M?dicis prior to Henri IV's assassination in 1610 attracted thousands of spectators ranging from pickpockets to ambassadors from across Europe. Drawing on newly discovered primary sources as well as theories and methodologies derived from literary studies, political history, musicology, dance studies, and women's and gender studies, Dancing Queen traces how Marie's ballets authorized her incipient political authority through innovative verbal and visual imagery, avant-garde musical developments, and ceremonial arrangements of objects and bodies in space. Making use of women's "semi-official" status as political agents, Marie's ballets also manipulated the subtle social and cultural codes of international courtly society in order to more deftly navigate rivalries and alliances both at home and abroad. At times the queen's productions could challenge Henri IV's immediate interests, contesting the influence enjoyed by his mistresses or giving space to implied critiques of official foreign policy, for example. Such defenses of Marie's own position, though, took shape as part of a larger governmental program designed to promote the French consort queen's political authority not in its own right but as a means of maintaining power for the new Bourbon monarchy in the event of Henri IV's untimely death.
Book Synopsis How I Became the Dancing Queen of Palm Springs by : Jill Langham
Download or read book How I Became the Dancing Queen of Palm Springs written by Jill Langham and published by . This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Dancing Queen of Palm Springs" is at its heart a coming of age story although not in the typical genre. Yes there are stories about my childhood and yes, there are also many more stories from my life as I grew and progressed. But "Dancing Queen" is really about how I came fully into the persona I now am. Like all coming of age tales it encapsulates the past as a precursor to the present but "Dancing Queen" expresses the joy, contentment, and fulfillment that I have come to enjoy as a fully formed, adult woman. I offer it as both a cautionary tale and a joyous gift to all of my Palm Springs Family and to anyone else who has ever struggled to become their authentic self.
Book Synopsis Dancing with the King by : Michael Belgrave
Download or read book Dancing with the King written by Michael Belgrave and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 719 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the battle of Orakau in 1864 and the end of the war in the Waikato, Tawhiao, the second Maori King, and his supporters were forced into an armed isolation in the Rohe Potae, the King Country. For the next twenty years, the King Country operated as an independent state – a land governed by the Maori King where settlers and the Crown entered at risk of their lives. Dancing with the King is the story of the King Country when it was the King's country, and of the negotiations between the King and the Queen that finally opened the area to European settlement. For twenty years, the King and the Queen's representatives engaged in a dance of diplomacy involving gamesmanship, conspiracy, pageantry and hard headed politics, with the occasional act of violence or threat of it. While the Crown refused to acknowledge the King's legitimacy, the colonial government and the settlers were forced to treat Tawhiao as a King, to negotiate with him as the ruler and representative of a sovereign state, and to accord him the respect and formality that this involved. Colonial negotiators even made Tawhiao offers of settlement that came very close to recognising his sovereign authority. Dancing with the King is a riveting account of a key moment in New Zealand history as an extraordinary cast of characters – Tawhiao and Rewi Maniapoto, Donald McLean and George Grey – negotiated the role of the King and the Queen, of Maori and Pakeha, in New Zealand.

Now, as the citizens of Eret prepare for the millennial celebration of their creation, the race for their allegiance draws near. From the far west, in the Valley of Shadows, Lord Abaylin seeks the prophesied Phalyadin to destroy him. From the east, in the Temple of Balance, Master Josiah seeks to protect him. Unfortunately, thousands of citizens who lie in between will soon fall at the hand of Lord Abaylin unless the Phayladin rises in time to protect them. In celebration of the millennium, the king of Bodain and the king of Todere decide to unite their two kingdoms in the marriage of their children, Prince Morgan and Princess Lillian, but with the prophecy of the Phayladin revealed, the king of Bodain is sought out to help recover the prophecy. Certain that the prophecy identifies the prince of Bodain as the Phalyadin, Master Josiah convinces the king of Bodain to let Prince Morgan accompany him in the battle, so the wedding is put on hold until Prince Morgan and Master Josiah are able to lead the army of Bodain back home. Is Prince Morgan truly the Phalyadin? Will he accept this role in time to save the citizens of Eret? Or will Lord Abaylin's harshest general and fifteen thousand soldiers trample right through the area surrounding the Great Divide, slaughtering everyone in their quest to halt the Rise of the Phalyadin? Immerse yourself in the fantasy world of Eret and be a part of the first book in The Accounts of Amari Series—Rise of the Phalyadin, an allegorical novel with themes of faith, courage, wisdom, and redemption.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day we have a choice on how to navigate our journey. Life is full of change and it’s a personal decision as to whether we adapt, ignore, or resist transition. Each one of us encounters challenges, but it is how we move through them that determines who we become. Lynn Lok-Payne experienced the unimaginable with the unexpected loss of her husband and a house fire just weeks later. In the midst of these life-changing events, one right after another, she began looking for a better way to not only heal, but also find fulfillment once again. Wake Up! Change Up! Rise Up! is an inspirational story interwoven with self-help techniques to live a more joyful, meaningful life. In her search for answers, she discovered that by clinging to the old stories we tell ourselves—like how our titles dictate our lives or how we’re not good enough—we diminish our own well-being. Sometimes we are afraid to let these narratives go, because if we did, who would we be? Once she decided to change this internal dialogue, her inner voice became stronger and the number of things to be grateful for began to grow. Lynn found that personal transformation is possible when we allow ourselves to flow through change instead of resist it. We have the inner tools to navigate life’s unexpected turns. Wake Up! Change Up! Rise Up! inspires us to: · Accept change and revise outdated beliefs · Let go of the Blame Shame Game · Find healing through gratitude · Cultivate well-being using practical exercises such as affirmations, meditation, and writing · Uncover a more purposeful, happy, and authentic life Lynn’s journey illustrates that with time, we can create a more empowering story line and become the next chapter of who we are meant to be. The language we use has the power to change our perspective and when we connect to our personal truth, we can truly thrive. Be the magnet for what you want to appear in your life. You are the solution.
