Book Synopsis Marvel The Tales of Asgard Trilogy by : Keith DeCandido
Download or read book Marvel The Tales of Asgard Trilogy written by Keith DeCandido and published by Joe Books Ltd. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marvel The Tales of Asgard Trilogy tells the stories of Asgard's greatest heroes—Thor, God of Thunder; Sif, the Unstoppable; and the Warriors Three, Volstagg the Voluminous, Fandral the Dashing, and Hogun the Grim. Book One—Marvel Thor: Dueling with Giants When Thor's hammer, Mjolnir, loses its enchantment, only one being is cunning enough to carry out such a trick: Thor's own adopted brother, Loki. As punishment, Odin imprisons Loki for a year, but the trickster soon takes on other forms and escapes his imprisonment. He provokes a dispute between Odin and the giant Hrungnir—one that soon brings a full-scale attack on Asgard and a one-on-one challenge to Thor himself. Book Two—Marvel Sif: Even Dragons Have Their Endings When the nearby village of Flodbjerge is terrorized by a dragon, it is Sif who must answer the call for help. Both her reputation and her life are on the line as she faces the fearsome dragon, Oter. The face-off won't be straightforward either—the winged beast has a secret that Sif will have to unravel in order to defeat him before the village and its people go up in flames. Book Three—Marvel Warriors Three: Godhood's End Throughout the Nine Worlds, giants are known more for their brawn than their brains, but the Frost Giant Thjasse has come up with an inspired plan: defeat the Aesir not by ending their lives in battle, but by stealing their precious Golden Apples of Immortality and letting time take its course. Is Odin's reign over? Or will the Warriors Three prove that it takes more than brute force and a little bit of ingenuity to topple fighters worthy of sharing Odin's table?

Download or read book Pagan Theology written by Michael York and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2005-04 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Pagan Theology, Michael York provides an introduction to, and expansion of, the concept of Paganism and provides an overview of its theological perspective and practice. He demonstrates it to be a viable and distinguishable spiritual perspective found today in such forms as Chinese folk religion, Shinto, tribal religions, and neo-Paganism in the West. While adherents of many of these traditions do not use the word "pagan" to describe their beliefs or practices, York contends that there is an identifiable position possessing characteristics and understandings in common for which the label "pagan" is appropriate. He outlines these characteristics and also explores paganism as a general form of religious behavior which may be found in other religions which are not themselves pagan. In the course of examining such behavior, York provides descriptions of religions in action, including Buddhism and Hinduism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A surprise from the author of Chocolat,” New York Times bestselling author Joanne M. Harris, “this pacy adult fantasy is narrated by Loki, the Norse god of fire and mischief” (Vogue). This novel is a brilliant first-person narrative of the rise and fall of the Norse gods—retold from the point of view of the world’s ultimate trickster, Loki. A #1 bestseller in the UK, The Gospel of Loki tells the story of Loki’s recruitment from the underworld of Chaos, his many exploits on behalf of his one-eyed master, Odin, through to his eventual betrayal of the gods and the fall of Asgard itself. Using her lifelong passion for the Norse myths, New York Times bestseller Joanne M. Harris has created a vibrant and powerful fantasy novel that the Sunday Sun recommends “to her long-standing audience with wit, style, and obvious enjoyment;” The Sunday Times claims it “lively and fun;” and The Metro adds that “Harris has enormous fun with her antihero...this mythical bad boy should beguile fans of Neil Gaiman.”

Book Synopsis The Well Spring of the Goths by : Ingemar Nordgren
Download or read book The Well Spring of the Goths written by Ingemar Nordgren and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004 with total page 666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Goths-a rumored people first known by history around the river Vistula in present Poland-was the people that more than other contributed to the fall of the Roman Empire. It was however also the Goths who preserved the Roman culture against other Germanic tribes. Earlier it has been generally assumed the Goths originated in Scandinavia but during the 20th c. many scholars have grown skeptical. The author has, using both Classical and Nordic sources and supplementary sciences, made probable there is an intimate connection between the Goths and the Nordic countries. Consequently it is quite possible that at least part of the Goths have a Nordic origin. The book rests on the basic hypothesis that the Goths are not a people but a number of tribes and peoples united through a common religious/cultic origin. The old dispute concerning the relationship between Svear and Gautar also gets quite a new meaning. The book is interdisciplinary and embraces history, religion, arts, linguistics and archaeology. In 1999 Ingemar Nordgren received his Ph.D. at Odense University, Denmark The book builds to a considerable extent on his dissertation but has been updated and partly rewritten with brand new material.

Book Synopsis Trickster Makes This World by : Lewis Hyde
Download or read book Trickster Makes This World written by Lewis Hyde and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2010-08-17 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Trickster Makes This World, Lewis Hyde brings to life the playful and disruptive side of human imagination as it is embodied in trickster mythology. He first visits the old stories—Hermes in Greece, Eshu in West Africa, Krishna in India, Coyote in North America, among others—and then holds them up against the lives and work of more recent creators: Picasso, Duchamp, Ginsberg, John Cage, and Frederick Douglass. Twelve years after its first publication, Trickster Makes This World—authoritative in its scholarship, loose-limbed in its style—has taken its place among the great works of modern cultural criticism. This new edition includes an introduction by Michael Chabon.
