Book Description
A Kingdom on the brink of destruction. A planet fragmented by mystical magic. THE PURPLE RIVER is a fantasy/sci-fi novel with a dystopian theme. A page turning debut in the tradition of Brandon Sanderson (Cosmere Universe), the Purple River is a thriller fuelled by an inter-planetary mystery - and a fight to save an entire civilisation from destruction by underworld entities and magic. The Purple River is a story about magic and tribal conflicts. A world in denial about its violent past. Planet Atis appears peaceful, but faces a battle for survival against underworld deities. "There was only darkness. It rubbed its eyes. Once. Twice, then it jabbed at them harder. As the creature opened its eyelids, it could finally see. It could not recall being able to use its eyes before. It looked around to view its surroundings. The landscape was flat and red with thick dust on its surface. What is this place? Where am I? Am I... alone?" "The guard held a metallic object in his hand. The object was as big as the guard's index finger. King Fareth's expression reflected that of the guard's - astonishment. 'This is impossible. We have not seen anything like this since... the great war,' Fareth gasped. 'But what is it?' asked the guard. 'It's... a bullet.\'" The story develops with news of a crime on Planet Atis in a distant galaxy: the wife of King Fareth has disappeared, with a bullet found at the edge of a lake where she was last seen. However, the incident is highly unusual as there has been no crime whatsoever on the planet for 300 years. Planet Atis has no army, police force, security or any form of guards. Puzzling as this crime looks, it's not the heart of the mystery. Coupled with this crisis, there are murmurings of strange dark deities (borrowed from Celtic mythology, such as the Balor, Naiads and the Kelpie) on the planets highest mountain, and shape shifting creatures in the dense forests, close to the Palace and capital city (Aria), where most of the populace live. The ruling tribe of the King, The Tarracullans, are also being threatened by their historical enemy, the Yarracullans. There is also the presence of a creature on another planet, whom are on a journey of self discovery. But who exactly is this other being on another planet and are they connected to Atis? Who are these new dark deities that reside on the planet's largest mountain? And what is it with the Kings brother and his special telepathic power and magic in the nearby forest?

Book Description
The Pulitzer Prize– and National Book Award–winning novel is now a new, boldly reimagined film from producers Oprah Winfrey and Steven Spielberg, starring Taraji P. Henson, Danielle Brooks, and Fantasia Barrino. A PBS Great American Read Top 100 Pick Celie has grown up poor in rural Georgia, despised by the society around her and abused by her own family. She strives to protect her sister, Nettie, from a similar fate, and while Nettie escapes to a new life as a missionary in Africa, Celie is left behind without her best friend and confidante, married off to an older suitor, and sentenced to a life alone with a harsh and brutal husband. In an attempt to transcend a life that often seems too much to bear, Celie begins writing letters directly to God. The letters, spanning 20 years, record a journey of self-discovery and empowerment guided by the light of a few strong women. She meets Shug Avery, her husband’s mistress and a jazz singer with a zest for life, and her stepson’s wife, Sofia, who challenges her to fight for independence. And though the many letters from Celie’s sister are hidden by her husband, Nettie’s unwavering support will prove to be the most breathtaking of all. The Color Purple has sold more than five million copies, inspired an Academy Award-nominated film starring Oprah Winfrey and directed by Steven Spielberg, and been adapted into a Tony-winning Broadway musical. Lauded as a literary masterpiece, this is the groundbreaking novel that placed Walker “in the company of Faulkner” (The Nation), and remains a wrenching—yet intensely uplifting—experience for new generations of readers. This ebook features a new introduction written by the author on the 25th anniversary of publication, and an illustrated biography of Alice Walker including rare photos from the author’s personal collection. The Color Purple is the 1st book in the Color Purple Collection, which also includes The Temple of My Familiar and Possessing the Secret of Joy.
