Book Description
The final chapter. Ariadne, refugee princess, has completed the quests to gain knowledge, power and protection. She can now face Grimlindus, the general, necromancer and suave lord of evil, who wields the all-powerful Sword of Death. But Grimlindus has raised his armies and is preparing to invade the west. Their first mission is to conquer the Esengater, the Iron City, held by the female knights of the Order of the Dragon Slayer. Ariadnes companions travel to the corners of the Westland to raise the forces to stop him. They are in a race against Grimlinduss demons, sorcerers and assassins, who are trying to stop the west from mobilising. Meanwhile, Ariadne travels to the Mystic Isles to forge the weapon that she will use in the final battle: Sword of Life. Because, in the end, it will be a duel between the Sword of Life and the Sword of Death.

The Life And Death Of Sir Astanax Knight

Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
The Life And Death Of Sir Astanax Knight is a story based on dreams and visions of a past life, if there ever is such a thing. It follows the life of Sir Astanax Knight, through his young age of misunderstandings of knights, to his first and last loves. It shares some facts of knighthood with it as well. Sir Astanax is also plagued by a woman who appears only in his dreams. Who this beautiful woman is, is a mystery. This is my first, and perhaps only book, but I believe you will find enjoyment out of reading this tale of chivalry, sword fighting, war, love, adventure, and greed in my book, The Life And Death Of Sir Astanax Knight.

The Life and Death of Ancient Cities
Author: Greg Woolf
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0191641820
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 512
Book Description
The human race is on a 10,000 year urban adventure. Our ancestors wandered the planet or lived scattered in villages, yet by the end of this century almost all of us will live in cities. But that journey has not been a smooth one and urban civilizations have risen and fallen many times in history. The ruins of many of them still enchant us. This book tells the story of the rise and fall of ancient cities from the end of the Bronze Age to the beginning of the Middle Ages. It is a tale of war and politics, pestilence and famine, triumph and tragedy, by turns both fabulous and squalid. Its focus is on the ancient Mediterranean: Greeks and Romans at the centre, but Phoenicians and Etruscans, Persians, Gauls, and Egyptians all play a part. The story begins with the Greek discovery of much more ancient urban civilizations in Egypt and the Near East, and charts the gradual spread of urbanism to the Atlantic and then the North Sea in the centuries that followed. The ancient Mediterranean, where our story begins, was a harsh environment for urbanism. So how were cities first created, and then sustained for so long, in these apparently unpromising surroundings? How did they feed themselves, where did they find water and building materials, and what did they do with their waste and their dead? Why, in the end, did their rulers give up on them? And what it was like to inhabit urban worlds so unlike our own - cities plunged into darkness every night, cities dominated by the temples of the gods, cities of farmers, cities of slaves, cities of soldiers. Ultimately, the chief characters in the story are the cities themselves. Athens and Sparta, Persepolis and Carthage, Rome and Alexandria: cities that formed great families. Their story encompasses the history of the generations of people who built and inhabited them, whose short lives left behind monuments that have inspired city builders ever since - and whose ruins stand as stark reminders to the 21st century of the perils as well as the potential rewards of an urban existence.

Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
The saga of the mighty Forest Kingdom comes to a close as dark magic, fell foes, and a vicious dragon threaten to destroy Cormyr’s royal family—and Cormyr itself Azoun IV, in the twilight of his years, is still a shining hero to most of his subjects. To all but the eldest, he is the only king they've ever known. He's led them capably out of dark doom before. Yet Cormyr has never faced so many mighty and mysterious foes at once. Demonic ghazneths, ancient curses, weird trees of foul magic, goblins and their kin on the rise in the northern wilderlands, a blight upon the land, rebellious mutterings, dying war wizards . . . and a dragon the likes of which no living eyes on Faerûn have ever seen. The Purple Throne doesn't seem so unassailable now. It could well shatter under the weight of a gigantic dragon—or the secrets and follies of the last of the Obarskyrs.
