Book Description
A commoner turned noble. A Queen cast aside. A lady half forgotten. A court filled with lies. Marietta: A half-elven commoner, abducted and forced into marriage with an elven lord. Valeriya: A Queen without power, undermining the husband she loathes for the legacy she craves. Elyse: A lady with untold potential, determined to remain unseen. In Enomenos, everyone is equal. In Syllogi, the elves rule over all. When war breaks out between them, Marietta finds herself at the center of the conflict in the elven city-state of Satiros. She must make a choice: fight for her freedom or fight for her people. When Queen Valeriya first learns of Marietta, she digs into her past. What she finds is a weapon to wield against the court-and a chance to dethrone the King. Elyse is thrust from the shadows and into the light when the King learns of her innate ability to control magic. Her life grows more complicated when a flirtatious foreign lord fights for her love. All three soon discover their choices shape the future of Satiros. Who can they trust, and which lies will be the most devastating of all? If you love books with royalty and aristocracy, elves and humans, and strong female leads, then you will love this adult fantasy romance book.

James Hogg and the Literary Marketplace
Author: Holly Faith Nelson
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 135192575X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 456
Book Description
Responding to the resurgence of interest in the Scottish working-class writer James Hogg, Sharon Alker and Holly Faith Nelson offer the first edited collection devoted to an examination of the critical implications of his writings and their position in the Edinburgh and London literary marketplaces. Writing during a particularly complex time in Scottish literary history, Hogg, a working shepherd for much of his life, is seen to challenge many of the aesthetic conventions adopted by his contemporaries and to anticipate many of the concerns voiced in discussions of literature in recent years. While the essays privilege Hogg's primary texts and read them closely in their immediate cultural context, the volume's contributors also introduce relevant research on oral culture, nationalism, transnationalism, intertextuality, class, colonialism, empire, psychology, and aesthetics where they serve to illuminate Hogg's literary ingenuity as a working-class writer in Romantic Scotland.
