Pages : 42
Book Description
A first of its kind high fantasy of an EPIC scale “DieTerra needs its Wolf. The Wolf who bears suns in his eyes.” Once, the world of DieTerra brimmed with magic. Pioneered by magical races and fantastical beings, sorcery and alchemy were the way of life for most. At the head of this world, stood an order of seven individuals known as the Seven Pillars. The Pillars wielded seven magical stones, called the Vivi stones, which enabled them to manipulate and create the elemental forces. The world is not the same anymore. For over a thousand years, the Council has ruled DieTerra. Sorcery is forbidden and magic has been driven out of the lands. The Peacekeepers maintain total control. The governments and monarchs of the world bow to the council and operate at their behest. When Aermes Dakians, an eighteen-year-old lord in hiding, receives a Vivi stone and a ten year old letter from his father, his mission is simple- join the Seven Pillars at the Fiachori Shrine; where others like him have gathered to learn about their respective Vivi stones and hone their abilities. Unaware of the meticulous plot set in motion by the Council, the Pillars find themselves cornered into an unavoidable conflict- aimed at exterminating their ancient order. The young trainees must collide with the all-powerful Peacekeepers to defend their legacies and in turn, the future of DieTerra.

Languages : en
Pages : 253
Book Description
A forbidden love and a chilling mystery tease the senses in this sensuous historical romance from the USA Today bestselling author of A Kiss of Lies and A Love to Remember. Bookish and independent Lady Helen Hawkestone is expected to marry well. But, having grown up with warring parents, the institution holds little appeal. The trick, she realizes, is to marry for love—a task that’s easier said than done. Only while Helen is raising funds for her do-gooder sister’s orphanage does she meet a man who arouses her curiosity. Lowborn and yet so dignified that Helen can’t help but try to elicit a response, Clary Homeward is an enigma—a heart-stopping, body-stirring, forget-her-social-upbringing enigma. A single offense against a noblewoman such as Lady Helen would ruin a man like Clary. Her sister, Marisa, rescued him from hellish poverty and employs him with her charity work. Try as he might to push her away, Helen tempts him to want things he could never have. But when girls from the orphanage start disappearing, destined for a grim fate Clary knows all too well, Helen insists on helping. And soon Clary wonders whether something more were not just possible but inevitable—even right.

A Dream That Interprets Itself
Author: Otto Rank
Publisher: Karnac Books
ISBN: 1800132069
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
Sigmund Freud hired Otto Rank as his secretary and funded Rank's PhD in literature at the University of Vienna. In 1910, at age 26, Rank published 'A Dream That Interprets Itself'. Freud could not praise the essay highly enough; impressed by Rank's erudition, Freud invited his protege to contribute two chapters, on poetry and myth, in 1914 to The Interpretation of Dreams. Thereafter, Rank's name would appear under Freud's on the title page of the foundational text of psychoanalysis for the next fifteen years. Grateful for Freud's generosity, Rank published a stream of articles and books advancing psychoanalytic thinking into almost every area of the arts and humanities, thus demonstrating to Freud's critics that the validity of psychoanalysis did not hinge solely on his autobiographical work The Interpretation of Dreams. Rank died in 1939 and his work fell out of favor until a renaissance of interest beginning in the 1970s. This is the first English translation of Rank's masterpiece of dream interpretation, originally published in 1910 as "Ein Traum, der sich selbst deutet" in the journal Jahrbuch fur Psychoanalytische und Psychopathologische Forschungen, 2(2): 465-540. It is accompanied by an in-depth introduction from editor Robert Kramer, the world's only Rankian psychologist. The book is essential reading for all psychoanalytic scholars, practitioners, and historians, and those interested in dream analysis.
