Book Description
Even after the appearance of strange creatures and being summoned by three shamans, Ivan had no idea he would fall into another world. Once there, the creatures and things around him gave him little hope of ever getting back. On a world that threatened to swallow him at every step, he found love, and a purpose that would stagger the imagination of the bravest warriors. Torn between wanting to wake up from a bad dream and holding on to the things he found in it, he had to find a way to serve his awakened need to help a race of people taken long ago from his own world, and keep from joining them on the menu of a powerful race of cruel Volgour. Strange Crun spirits and unusual abilities would become his weapons, and he would come to realize that what he would start, his children would finish.

Slowly, Slowly in the Wind
Author: Patricia Highsmith
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393345637
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
"Highsmith's writing is wicked . . . it puts a spell on you, after which you feel altered, even tainted."—Entertainment Weekly Slowly, Slowly in the Wind brilliantly assembles many of Patricia Highsmith's most nuanced and psychologically suspenseful works. Rarely has an author articulated so well the hypocrisies of the Catholic Church while conveying the delusions of a writer's life and undermining the fantasy of suburban bliss. Each of these twelve pieces, like all great short fiction, is a crystal-clear snapshot of lives both static and full of chaos. In "The Pond" Highsmith explores the unforeseen calamities that can unalterably shatter a single woman's life, while "The Network" finds sinister loneliness and joy in the mundane yet engrossing friendships of a small community of urban dwellers. In this enduring and disturbing collection, Highsmith evokes the gravity and horror of her characters' surroundings with evenhanded prose and a detailed imagination.

The Tales from the Arabian Nights
Author: Antoine Galland
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781521438916
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 47
Book Description
One Thousand and One Nights (Arabic: كِتَاب أَلْف لَيْلَة وَلَيْلَة kitāb ʾalf layla wa-layla) is a collection of Middle Eastern and South Asian stories and folk tales compiled in Arabic during the Islamic Golden Age. It is often known in English as the Arabian Nights, from the first English language edition (1706), which rendered the title as The Arabian Nights' Entertainment.The work was collected over many centuries by various authors, translators, and scholars across West, Central, and South Asia and North Africa. The tales themselves trace their roots back to ancient and medieval Arabic, Persian, Mesopotamian, Indian, Jewish and Egyptian folklore and literature. In particular, many tales were originally folk stories from the Caliphate era, while others, especially the frame story, are most probably drawn from the Pahlavi Persian work Hazār Afsān (Persian: هزار افسان, lit. A Thousand Tales) which in turn relied partly on Indian elements.
