Book Description
Isabel Benson has recently been crowned Queen of Cinder’s Edge, but before signing her first royal decree, she finds herself questioning whether the kingdom is ready for the changes she is about to put in motion. Travel through time as her grandparents help to answer that question by telling their story. Natalie, a petite silver-haired woman with emerald eyes and wrinkles that reflect both the tragedies and triumphs of her life, was once a typical young princess. Her father’s obsession with finding her the perfect suitor and her mother’s insistence that she learn to perfect things like the art of curtsying, left her wanting nothing more than to break of her parents’ expectations. Blaine Benson, is now a white-haired man with soulful blue eyes who loves his granddaughter more than life itself. Growing up he was like any other guy expect for his physical disability and the fact that his best friend was, and still is, a treasure troll. Hoping to learn how to free his father, a once beloved magician, from the guilt surrounding the cause of his disability, he spent most of his formative years with his nose stuck in a book. Go on an adventure with the two as they describe how falling for one another was not by coincidence, but the work of forces greater than they ever could have imagine. Learn how their love, and the love of those around them, was put to the test when Glomgurgle, a dragon who attacked the kingdom when Natalie was a child, lured her to his lair and her father offered her hand in marriage to the suitor who could save her. Hear about how with her own happiness and the wellbeing of her kingdom at stake, Natalie had to learn trust in the only thing that she could - her instincts. Listen to how Blaine examined his true abilities, as the fate of Natalie, the trolls, and Cinder’s Edge was ultimately put in his hands. In the end, after hearing the history of her family and kingdom, Isabel must decide whether or not, she too can trust her instincts and sign a royal decree that will change the fate of Cinder’s Edge and its people forever.

Magic in the Cloister
Author: Sophie Page
Publisher: Penn State Press
ISBN: 0271062975
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
During the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries a group of monks with occult interests donated what became a remarkable collection of more than thirty magic texts to the library of the Benedictine abbey of St. Augustine’s in Canterbury. The monks collected texts that provided positive justifications for the practice of magic and books in which works of magic were copied side by side with works of more licit genres. In Magic in the Cloister, Sophie Page uses this collection to explore the gradual shift toward more positive attitudes to magical texts and ideas in medieval Europe. She examines what attracted monks to magic texts, in spite of the dangers involved in studying condemned works, and how the monks combined magic with their intellectual interests and monastic life. By showing how it was possible for religious insiders to integrate magical studies with their orthodox worldview, Magic in the Cloister contributes to a broader understanding of the role of magical texts and ideas and their acceptance in the late Middle Ages.

Magic in the Middle Ages
Author: Richard Kieckhefer
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108861121
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
How was magic practiced in medieval times? How did it relate to the diverse beliefs and practices that characterized this fascinating period? This much revised and expanded new edition of Magic in the Middle Ages surveys the growth and development of magic in medieval Europe. It takes into account the extensive new developments in the history of medieval magic in recent years, featuring new material on angel magic, the archaeology of magic, and the magical efficacy of words and imagination. Richard Kieckhefer shows how magic represents a crossroads in medieval life and culture, examining its relationship and relevance to religion, science, philosophy, art, literature, and politics. In surveying the different types of magic that were used, the kinds of people who practiced magic, and the reasoning behind their beliefs, Kieckhefer shows how magic served as a point of contact between the popular and elite classes, how the reality of magical beliefs is reflected in the fiction of medieval literature, and how the persecution of magic and witchcraft led to changes in the law.

Awaken the Magic Within
Author: Joe Swinger
Publisher: Morgan James Publishing
ISBN: 168350710X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
Awaken the Magic Within helps business leaders listen to that voice inside, showing them that it’s brilliant and it matters, in both work and personal situations. It is a simple read; yet, it has dramatic impact on a business’s bottom line, as well as an employee’s value to the company. A business must make money or it isn’t a business—it is a hobby. The old way of making a profit in business no longer serves the company, the shareholder, or the employee. In Awaken the Magic Within, motivational transformation specialist Joe Swinger addresses a transformative leadership style called Self-Mastery Leadership, the application of which produces rewarding results for business leaders in their multiple work situations with employees, within C-level suites, and in their families and love relationships. Whether someone longs to exchange the label “employee” for “entrepreneur,” be more authentic in their personal and professional relationships, or upgrade their entire life on a grand scale, it all begins with self-mastery. Joe Swinger allows business leaders and entrepreneurs alike to give themselves permission to live the gift they truly are, enter their own journey, and become more authentic as they Awaken the Magic Within.
