Book Synopsis Fantasy and Your Family by : Richard Abanes
Download or read book Fantasy and Your Family written by Richard Abanes and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fantasy and Your Family by bestselling author Richard Abanes presents a much-needed assessment of fantasy - its benefits and its drawbacks. Abanes begins with an in-depth look at folklore, myths, legends, and fairy tales, and their connection to fantasy. Part one also discusses issues involving child development, the affects of literature on children, and how those affects can ultimately change the course of society. Additionally, Abanes examines pop culture, the media, mass marketing, and the commercialization of children's literature by corporations interested primarily in making money. This volume then looks at the life of fantasy writer J.R.R. Tolkien, the popularity of his fantasy works, their content, and what separates them from other fantasy volumes such as Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling and the children's horror books by R.L. Stine. A particularly interesting survey of Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings includes a thorough analysis of its storyline, characters, and morality. These are compared side-by-side with Harry Potter. Finally, Abanes gives an overview of our culture's growing obsession with the occult, paganism, and witchcraft. Why is it happening? When did it begin? How is it influencing today's youth? All of these questions are answered through a concise, easy-to-understand writing style. Especially fascinating are the numerous sources of documentations that shows children are indeed being drawn to the occult via Harry Potter. Included are dozens of quotes by Wiccans, neopagans, and occultists that clearly express their belief that Rowling's fantasy will do much to further witchcraft and the occult. - Amazon.
Book Synopsis The Fantasy of Family by : Elizabeth Thiel
Download or read book The Fantasy of Family written by Elizabeth Thiel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The myth of the Victorian family remains a pervasive influence within a contemporary Britain that perceives itself to be in social crisis. Nostalgic for a golden age of "Victorian values" in which visions of supportive, united families predominate, the common consciousness, exhorted by social and political discourse, continues to vaunt the "traditional, natural" family as the template by which all other family forms are gauged. Yet this fantasy of family, nurtured and augmented throughout the Victorian era, was essentially a construct that belied the realities of a nineteenth-century world in which orphanhood, fostering, and stepfamilies were endemic. Focusing primarily on British children's texts written by women and drawing extensively on socio-historic material, The Fantasy of Family considers the paradoxes implicit to the perpetuation of the domestic ideal within the Victorian era and offers new perspectives on both nineteenth-century and contemporary society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of When Dimple Met Rishi comes the second installment in a series set an elite boarding school that’s a contemporary spin on fairy tales, this one a delightful, romantic twist on The Frog Prince. Caterina LaValle is determined to show she’s still the queen of St. Rosetta’s Academy. Sure, her crown may be slightly askew after her ex-boyfriend, Alaric, cheated on her, but she’s a LaValle. She’ll find a way to march right back in there, her hands clutching the strings to the whole puppet show. This time, she’s going to be untouchable. Rahul Chopra knows that moment he shared with Caterina LaValle at the winter formal meant something. Surely she feels it, too. He’s a little uncertain how someone like him (socially inept to a point way past “adorkable”) could fit into her world, but he’s loved Caterina for years. He knows they’ll find a way. When Caterina finds out Alaric is taking a supermodel to the upcoming gala, she knows she cannot arrive without the perfect date. But the thought of taking another superficial St. R’s boy exhausts her. The solution? Sweet-but-clueless Rahul Chopra and a mysterious pot of hair gel with the power to alter the wearer into whatever his heart desires. When Rahul tries it, he transforms instantly into RC—debonair, handsome, and charming. But transformation comes with a price: As Rahul enjoys his new social standing, the line between his two personas begins to blur. Will he give up everything, including Caterina, to remain RC? Or will this unlikely pair find their way back to each other?

So he dispatches the mystic Senneth to assess the threat throughout the realm. Accompanying her is a motley band of magic-users and warriors including Tayse, first among the King’s Riders—who holds a hard view of mystics in general, and Senneth in particular. But as the unlikely allies venture farther into the south, they will face death in a land under the sway of a fanatical cult that would purge Gillengaria of all magic users. And they will come to realize that their only hope of survival lies in standing together…

But when an outsider arrives and pulls back the curtain on Kaigen's alleged age of peace, Mamoru realizes that he might not have much time to become the fighter he was bred to be. Worse, the empire he was bred to defend may stand on a foundation of lies.Misaki told herself that she left the passions of her youth behind when she married into the Matsuda house. Determined to be a good housewife and mother, she hid away her sword, along with everything from her days as a fighter in a faraway country. But with her growing son asking questions about the outside world, the threat of an impending invasion looming across the sea, and her frigid husband grating on her nerves, Misaki finds the fighter in her clawing its way back to the surface.

This book was released on 2021-11-20 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HE ISN'T SUPPOSED TO EVEN TALK TO A HUMAN... MUCH LESS FALL IN LOVE WITH ONE. Ryann Carroll has just run into the guy who saved her life ten years ago. You might think she'd be happy to see him again. Not exactly. She's a bit underdressed (as in skinny-dipping) and he's ...not supposed to exist. After her father's affair, all Ryann wants is to escape the family implosion fallout and find a little peace. She also wouldn't mind a first date that didn't suck, but she's determined not to end up like her mom: vulnerable, betrayed, destroyed. Ryann's just moved into her grandma's house in rural Mississippi, the same place where ten years earlier she became lost in the woods overnight and nearly died. She's still irresistibly drawn to those woods. There she encounters the boy who kept her from freezing to death that long ago winter night and was nowhere to be seen when rescuers arrived. He's still mysterious, but now all grown-up and gorgeous, too. And the more she's with him, the greater the threat he poses to Ryann's strict policy-- never want someone more than he wants you. Lad knows the law of his people all too well: Don't get careless and Don't get caught. It's allowed his race to live undetected in this world for thousands of years, mentioned only in flawed and fading folklore. Lad's never been able to forget about Ryann since that night ten years ago. When he sees her again, his fascination re-ignites and becomes a growing desire that tempts him to break all the rules. He's not even supposed to talk to a human, much less fall in love with one. And the timing is atrocious. The Assemblage is coming, the rift between the Light and Dark is widening. Lad may have to trade his own chance at happiness to keep the humans, especially Ryann, blissfully ignorant and safe. **This starter set contains HIDDEN DEEP and HIDDEN HEART, Books One and Two of the saga that created a global fandom.

This bundle contains Oracle, Trickster, and Poltergeist, books 7, 8, and 9 in the Coven series. Oracle It’s better not to know things sometimes… Suspecting she might be pregnant, Samantha seeks out Vanita, an oracle, to ask whether she and Steven are even ready to have kids. During the reading, Samantha receives a vision of a man bleeding out on the ground. Learning from past mistakes, Samantha recruits Kathy’s help to track him down. After searching for hours in the frigid winter night, the sisters come up empty. Samantha returns to Vanita for further answers and learns that the man in the vision is none other than Vanita’s brother, Oren. When the sisters enact their plan to save Oren, they discover that Vanita isn’t as innocent as she let on. Right in front of the sisters’ eyes, she stabs her brother and steals her family’s powerful amulet to wreak havoc with it. The sisters are ready to launch into a search for Vanita, but must tend to Oren’s physical injuries, as well as some of their own intangible ones as Kathy finds Steven in a compromising situation, which erupts in the biggest marital spat he and Samantha have ever had. The sisters must pull together their emotions and trust each other if they’re going to get the amulet back. Otherwise, the world as they know it could be over. Oracle is the seventh book in the Coven series, which serves as a prequel to the Under the Moon series. Trickster Not everything is as it seems. A carnival birthday party for a one-year-old turns terrifying when a little girl lets out a scream from within the funhouse. Samantha and Kathy rush in to rescue her, only to find a demented clown hovering over the girl, feasting on her screams. He gets away, leaving the sisters scratching their heads as to who or what it might be. After asking around, the staff all claim that there are no clowns employed by the carnival, which doesn’t explain what the girls witnessed. To make matters worse, Kathy is pulled away after her friend has a surprising revelation about her boyfriend, Jeremy. That leaves Samantha, whose powers haven’t been working exactly right ever since she became pregnant. As the sisters struggle to find answers, another kid is found unconscious deep inside the funhouse tent. With hundreds of children arriving at the carnival for fun and games, the clock is ticking for the sisters to find a way to stop what lurks inside. And its only a matter of time before he gets what he’s after. Trickster is the eighth book in the Coven series, which serves as a prequel to the Under the Moon series. Poltergeist You never know what will follow you home. While touring a fixer-upper they’re considering buying, Samantha and Steven both have bad feelings about the house. Samantha, who is seven months pregnant, feels a wave of energy come over her as Steven and the realtor go down to the look at the basement without her. Deciding to pass on the abandoned house, Samantha and Steven later return home without a second thought about the house. Meanwhile, Kathy has been busy planning Samantha’s baby shower with Steven’s mother. It’s not until Steven points out Samantha’s odd behavior that Kathy begins to notice it too. As the baby shower looms nearer, Kathy is determined to figure out what’s going on with her sister before Samantha is the center of attention in front of everyone. When Kathy and Steven consult a medium about what might be going on, they learn that Samantha is very likely possessed by a poltergeist. And with her growing baby in her belly, the evil spirit may prove impossible to exorcise. Poltergeist is the ninth book in the Coven series, which serves as a prequel to the Under the Moon series.
