Book Synopsis Book of The Three Dragons by : Kenneth M. Morris
Download or read book Book of The Three Dragons written by Kenneth M. Morris and published by Cold Spring Press. This book was released on 2004-10-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1930, Kenneth Morris's superb Book of the Three Dragons is an imaginative reworking of elements from the Mabinogion and other Welsh Celtic stories, telling the story of Manawyddan, who is given the choice between immortality with the gods or preventing a new evil from destroying the Island of the Mighty. Manawyddan chooses the latter, and the novel tells of his adventures. Swiftly moving and dramatic, this is a book that lovers of modern fantasy and old hero tales alike cannot afford to miss. Perhaps most importantly for modern readers, for the first time Morris's unpublished ending - amounting to one-third of the book's length - is included in this new edition, telling what became of the hero, his wife, and their son. NOTE ON NEW SERIES: This is the first in our new line of fantasy fiction, which will feature both masterpieces no longer in print in the US as well as new works. The series will be edited by noted Tolkien scholar Douglas A. Anderson, whose previous books include The Annotated Hobbit (HM) and Tales Before Tolkien (Ballantine). Mr. Anderson will also write introductions to each book, providing context and background to enrich the reader's experience. The cover look and interior design will appeal to all demographics (especially younger fans under 30 who play computer fantasy games and love writers like Tolkien, Pratchett, and Pullman) with top artists creating a dazzling fantasy look. Quotes:"It is a singularly fine example of the recreation of a work magnificent in its own right (the 'Mabinogion') -- a literary event rather rare except in fantasy" - Ursula Le Guin "Kenneth Morris was an important, innovative fantasist, worthy to rank with MacDonald, Eddison, and Tolkien." - Ursula Le Guin "Morris writes with all Lord Dunsany's richness, though his cadences are Celtic rather than biblical. This one should be read aloud." - review in the Feb. 2004 issue of Fantasy & Science Fiction magazine "Book of the Three Dragons is perhaps the single best fantasy adaptation from a real-world up0mythology (in this case, the Welsh Mabinogion), and the best of his tales¿" - John Rateliff, review in the Sept. 2003 issue of Wizards of the Coast website (www.wizards.com), the #1 adventure gaming company in the world.

Book excerpt: One of the real pleasures of writing entertaining fiction is that sometimes the characters take hold and pull the author along. That's a good sign; it means the story is about realistic people in interesting situations. This story, The Book of Three Pages, started as a short story, but became a novelette even more intriguing than its title. Set in both old and modern day Mexico, it's a remarkable mix of adventure, romance and the passage of time, a tale that will stick with you long after you've read it.The Waterhole, the second story in this book, is set in the nineteenth century Southwest and tells of two young men from vastly different cultures who come together in dangerous circumstances. In the third story, Time Tangle in Talavera Canyon, a university professor and a soldier-each highly suspicious of the other-must cooperate to survive in a wilderness neither really understands. The last story, A Tale of Two Friends, tells of two orphaned boys who grew up as buddies, only to see their lives take a surprising twist. These stories are the kind you find hard to put down once you crack the cover.As described in his book of true short stories titled The Other End of the Sky, the author chose a highly diverse lifestyle. He has been a ranch hand, an international gemstone dealer, a truck driver, a competitive marksman and an electronic engineer. He holds a commercial pilot's license and is both a retired research physicist and a retired police officer. This experience has helped him build a wide genre of fictional short stories like those in another book titled The Last Asset. He and his wife Angie live in New Mexico with Monty and Chiquita, two Chihuahuas who hang out on his desk to help with typing.

Impressed with Boy’s climbing and jumping abilities, Secondus engages Boy as his servant, pulling him into an action-packed and suspenseful expedition across Europe to gather seven precious relics of Saint Peter.
