Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This succinct, accessible two-volume set covers all aspects of Celtic historical life, from prehistory to the present day.

The Celts: History, Life, and Culture uses a cross-disciplinary approach to explore all facets of this ancient society. The book introduces the archaeology, art history, folklore, history, linguistics, literature, music, and mythology of the Celts and examines the global influence of their legacy. Written entirely by acknowledged experts, the content is accessible without being simplistic. Unlike other texts in the field, The Celts: History, Life, and Culture celebrates all of the cultures associated with Celtic languages at all periods, providing for a richer and more comprehensive examination of the topic.

Book excerpt: "Maggie Warshauer remembers that summer of secrets... She knows the secrets of the rural North Carolina marina where she lives and works with her father, Drew, and she holds deep secrets about her family, a far-too-intimate view of her parents' passionate and failed marriage, her father's alcoholism. An outsider at school, insecure in her own sexual identity, Maggie "fictionalizes" a secret lover and categorizes the life around her, a project that began when she stole a copy of Linnaeus's journals. When her beautiful cousin, Charisse, disappears on prom night and is found dead in a houseboat at the marina, Maggie's cobbled-together life comes apart. As Maggie tries to come to terms with her shattered family, and with her own actions on the night of Charisse's death, the search continues for the killer. A local outcast is flushed from his hiding place, but he returns in the December dark to stalk an all-but-deserted marina looking for Maggie. All fantasies are swept aside as she must rely on her own grit and intelligence to survive. What was done in darkness will come to light, but who will pay the price for Charisse's death?"--

Download or read book Orkneyinga Saga written by and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1981-07-30 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written around AD 1200 by an unnamed Icelandic author, the Orkneyinga Saga is an intriguing fusion of myth, legend and history. The only medieval chronicle to have Orkney as the central place of action, it tells of an era when the islands were still part of the Viking world, beginning with their conquest by the kings of Norway in the ninth century. The saga describes the subsequent history of the Earldom of Orkney and the adventures of great Norsemen such as Sigurd the Powerful, St Magnus the Martyr and Hrolf, the conqueror of Normandy. Savagely powerful and poetic, this is a fascinating depiction of an age of brutal battles, murder, sorcery and bitter family feuds.

With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
