Book excerpt: Prophecy of the Swan covers twenty-nine years in the history of the Peace River valley in northeastern British Columbia. A vivid portrayal of life in some of the most isolated fur trade posts, it describes the intense competition between the North West and the Hudson's Bay companies, the individuals who were involved in exploration and commerce, and, finally, the shocking 'massacre of St. Johns.' It is unique in its integration of historic information and archaeological discovery, as it combines information recovered from many years of archaeological excavation with first-hand impressions of day-to-day life drawn from the few existing journals kept by company clerks.

Book excerpt: There is an amazing story being told by the stars every night. They began telling it a long time ago. The story was carried down through many generations but it eventually became lost. The story that the stars tell has not been told for thousands of years until now. The names of the stars in each of the original forty eight constellations all have very special meanings to their names. When the original names of the stars are combined together into sentences they begin telling their story. Each constellation tells a short story. And when all of the constellations are combined together they tell the story written in our night sky. This story has not been told for many generations and it is far from any thing most people have ever heard.

Download or read book Lies and Prophecy - Illustrated Edition written by Marie Brennan and published by Book View Cafe. This book was released on 2015-11-27 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and prophecy. Kim never had to wonder what to major in at college. Her talent for divination made her future clear in more ways than one. But there are limits to what even a gifted seer can predict, and no card reading or prophetic dream can prepare Kim for what's to come during her junior year at Welton. Something has taken an interest in her friend Julian -- an unseen force neither of them can identify. What starts as a dark omen quickly turns dangerous, as Julian finds himself under attack. To defend him, Kim will need more than her strengths; she will have to call on a form of magic she has never been able to master. If she can't learn fast enough, she may lose her friend forever. Kim knows she isn't ready for this. But if she wants to save Julian -- and herself -- she'll have to prove her own prophecies wrong. This edition contains six illustrations by the artist Avery Liell-Kok.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A spirit hunter is the target of deadly danger and Otherworldly lust in a paranormal thriller by the New York Times bestselling author of Vampire Academy. Eugenie Markham is a powerful shaman who does a brisk trade banishing spirits and fey who cross into the mortal world. Call her a mercenary if you want, but it’s just business to her. Until now. Hired to find a teenager who’s been taken to the Otherworld, Eugenie encounters a startling prophecy—one that uncovers dark secrets about her past and claims that her first-born will threaten the future of the world. Now Eugenie is a hot target for every ambitious demon in the Otherworld, and the ones who don't want to knock her up want her dead. Eugenie handles a Glock as smoothly as she wields a wand, but she needs some formidable allies for a job like this. She finds them in Dorian, a seductive fairy king with a taste for bondage, and Kiyo, a gorgeous shape-shifter who redefines animal attraction. But with enemies growing bolder and time running out, the greatest danger is yet to come, and it lies in the dark powers that are stirring to life within Eugenie herself. "Storm Born is my kind of book -- great characters, dark worlds, and just the right touch of humor. A great read." --Patricia Briggs
Book Synopsis The Cassowary's Revenge by : Donald Tuzin
Download or read book The Cassowary's Revenge written by Donald Tuzin and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1997-09-02 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donald Tuzin first studied the New Guinea village of Ilahita in 1972. When he returned many years later, he arrived in the aftermath of a startling event: the village’s men voluntarily destroyed their secret cult that had allowed them to dominate women for generations. The cult’s collapse indicated nothing less than the death of masculinity, and Tuzin examines the labyrinth of motives behind this improbable, self-devastating act. The villagers' mythic tradition provided a basis for this revenge of Woman upon the dominion of Man, and, remarkably, Tuzin himself became a principal figure in its narratives. The return of the magic-bearing "youngest brother" from America had been prophesied, and the villagers believed that Tuzin’s return "from the dead" signified a further need to destroy masculine traditions. The Cassowary's Revenge is an intimate account of how Ilahita’s men and women think, emote, dream, and explain themselves. Tuzin also explores how the death of masculinity in a remote society raises disturbing implications for gender relations in our own society. In this light Tuzin's book is about men and women in search of how to value one another, and in today's world there is no theme more universal or timely.

Book Synopsis Hidden Truth from Prophecy—Beyond 2012 by : Robert B. Scott
Download or read book Hidden Truth from Prophecy—Beyond 2012 written by Robert B. Scott and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-10-26 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Harbingers warnings to America expose an important, untold story, the astounding truth about prophecy hidden from the Christian world. This work is like a sequel, unveiling the mysteries of prophecy. The keys to the enigma that is Bible prophecy consist in knowing these rarely understood truths: America is identified in the Bible and is a major player in prophecy. The books of Job and Isaiah are the foundations of all Bible prophecy. Aliens and giants are also mentioned in Gods Word and will play a major role in end-time events. Quote from the book: This is more than a book that warns the world of what is about to happen. It is also a book that offers a sure hope for the future. While the winter solstice of 2012 will indeed begin the time of the greatest spiritual darkness the world has ever known, its not the end. Its not the end of the world; its not even the end of this age.
Book Synopsis Introducing the Medieval Swan by : Natalie Jayne Goodison
Download or read book Introducing the Medieval Swan written by Natalie Jayne Goodison and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2022-07-15 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Birds have always been a popular and accessible subject, but most books about medieval birds are an overview of their symbolism generally: owl for ill-omen, the pelican as a Eucharistic image and the like. The unique selling point of this book is to focus on one bird and explore it in detail from medieval reality to artistic concept. This book also traces how and why the medieval perception of the swan shifted from hypocritical to courtly within the medieval period. With special attention to ‘The Knight of the Swan’, the book traces the rise and popularity of the medieval swan through literature, history, courtly practices, and art. The book uses thoroughly readable language to appeal to a wide audience and explains some of the reasons why the swan holds such resonance today by covering views of the swan from classic to early modern times.

Book Synopsis Education at the Edge of Experience by : Marla Morris
Download or read book Education at the Edge of Experience written by Marla Morris and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-03 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting a unique exploration of education at “the edge of experience,” this book investigates how unassimilable concepts can reconceptualize education in order to grapple with what is beyond understanding. Working at the intersection of curriculum theory, philosophy and psychoanalysis, Morris examines how each of these “unassimilable” concepts such as lament, disavowal, breathlessness, and the Kafkaesque point toward currere as the edge of experience. It addresses what Lee Braver calls “the groundless grounds” and what Avital Ronell calls “the quicksand that is philosophy” to approach slippage and breaking points through an interdisciplinary lens. Pointing to an understanding of our largely social ills and extending William F. Pinar’s early work on currere in new and innovative directions, this book will appeal to curriculum theorists, education philosophers, psychoanalysts, and those with interests in the philosophy and theory of education.
Book Synopsis The Cygnus Mystery by : Andrew Collines
Download or read book The Cygnus Mystery written by Andrew Collines and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cygnus Constellation holds the key to proving that life originated in the heavens—and will ultimately return there. Best-selling author Andrew Collins has uncovered an astronomy that is about 17,000 years old, with standing stones, temples, and monuments across the globe oriented towards Cygnus’s stars. He also found that the use of deep caves by Palaeolithic man led to the rise of religious thought and the belief in life’s stellar origins. Now modern-day technology has confirmed that high-energy particles come from a binary star known as Cygnus X3. Ancient people knew what science is finally verifying: that the DNA of life came originally from deep space.

Book Synopsis Pre-histories and Afterlives by : Anna Holland
Download or read book Pre-histories and Afterlives written by Anna Holland and published by MHRA. This book was released on 2009 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If the past is indeed a foreign country, then how can we make sense of its richness and difference without approaching it on our terms alone? 'Pre-histories' and 'afterlives', critical methods that have emerged in recent work by Terence Cave, offer new ways of shaping the stories we tell of the past and the analyses we offer. In this volume, distinguished contributors engage in a dialogue with these two new critical methods, exploring their uses in a range of contexts, disciplines, languages and periods, ranging from medieval mysticism, through Montaigne and Diderot, to the present day." --Book Jacket.
