Download or read book Runemarks written by Joanne Harris and published by Random House. This book was released on 2012 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seven oâe(tm)clock on a Monday morning, five hundred years after the End of the World, and goblins had been at the cellar again. Maddy Smith has always been an outsider. In a world ruled by the harsh and puritanical Order, she is shunned for the strange birthmark on her left hand. For this is no ordinary birthmark âe" it is a runemark, a sign of the old gods. In fact, Maddy can do things that no-one else can, things that could be called magic. But not until she meets the old traveller One-Eye, an outsider like herself, does she learn what power she really has, and what she will be asked to do with it. In Runemarks, Joanne Harris creates a world not unlike our own - if it had been shaped by the Vikings instead of the Romans - and colours it with her familiar blend of rich imagery and gritty realism. A disenchanted world, where the gods died long ago. Can Maddy bring them back to life?

And in London a mistreated dog roams the streets looking for handouts, and for a friend.

Book excerpt: The growing power in Sable's words nearly changed the world. Until she was betrayed and silenced. A year ago on the land's biggest stage, Sable's voice nearly burned down the carefully constructed lies of the Kalesh Empire. Now, Sable's skills are merely tools in High Prioress Vivaine's desperate negotiations with the new Kalesh Ambassador, who's denounced Sable as a zabat. A rebel. A firestarter. Sable would love nothing more than to burn down the Empire. But with threats against her sisters looming, the acting troupe driven away, and no news of Reese for a year, she's too chained and alone to even light a spark. Meanwhile, the Empire grows on the south like a disease and stretches its poisoned fingers even into the northern lands. Desperate to fight, Sable sends details about the Kalesh to the one ember of hope kindling in the north - a small, mysterious band of rebels. Vivaine hates the rebellion, though, and her spies have discovered their location-and that Sable is more deeply connected to them than she knows. Unless Sable turns her back on the rebellion and pledges loyalty to Vivaine, the prioress will reveal the rebel camp to the Kalesh. But Vivaine should not be so rash, because the power of Sable's voice is stirring again, the old coals being stoked into flames. And she's ready to embrace the title of zabat.
