Book Description
I don’t know what I expected at this point. You’d think the sorcerers’ council would be singing my praises after everything I’ve done for them, but no! All I get is the hairy eyeball and a third-rate job tracking down spawning demidemons in the north. Our journey quickly leads us to a murder, a mysterious “white giant,” and our favorite mercenary couple... who’ve learned about a demonic infiltrator high in the ranks of Gyria. Wait—isn’t that the city demons burned down a couple books back (with maybe a tiny bit of my help)? Just how much demon-related trouble can one place get up to?!

Book Description
So Gourry and I agreed to escort Sylphiel to her family in Saillune City, but she didn't tell me her uncle was hiding the most wanted man in town--P-P-Prince Phil. (Ugh! Blech!) We thus get drawn in to some noble family drama that, you guessed it, blows up royally. Good thing Princess Amelia is every bit as plucky as she is powerful! Wait, she's traveling with us now? Turns out we might need the help! We're just minding our own merry business one minute, and the next, some lady shows up and seals my magic! You'll never guess this one, because we'll be dealing with a cult, some possessed armor, a magical beast, and one mysterious priest before we get to the bottom of things ourselves. Then we receive an invitation from our old pal Zuma the assassin, who wants me to come to Vezendi. I'm guessing he's not interested in catching up over tea, huh? As if that wasn't enough, there's also skullduggery afoot between Xellos and some other shadowy figures. What gives? I mean, I know I'm good, but I swear! These demons just can't get enough of me!

The Aesthetics of Culture in Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Author: Matthew Pateman
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476606129
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
On the TV screen as elsewhere, there is often more than meets the eye. For decades, television has offered not just entertainment, but observations--subtle and otherwise--on society. This book examines the cultural commentary contained in Buffy, the Vampire Slayer, a show that ran for seven seasons (1997-2003) and 144 episodes. On the surface, Buffy is the marriage of a high school drama to gothic horror. This somewhat unusual vehicle is used to present, via the character of Buffy, fairly typical views of late 20th century culture-teenage problems; issues regarding a broken home; and the search for meaning and validation. In addition, subtler themes, such as cultural views of knowledge, ethnicity and history, are woven into the show's critique of popular culture. Organized into two sections, this volume offers an in-depth examination of the show: first, through the lens of Buffy's confrontation with culture, and second, from the complex perspectives of the individual characters. Issues such as values, ethical choices and the implications of one's actions are discussed--without ever losing sight of the limitations of a medium that will always be dominated by financial concerns. The final chapter summarizes what Buffy has to say about today's society. An appendix lists Buffy episodes in chronological order.
