Pages : 352
Book Description
Nothing stays buried forever. For centuries, the dwarves of Thoriddon have lived in relative peace. They work without fear, drink without care, and toil happily in their underground kingdom. If only they knew what lay beneath their feet. Most of them have no knowledge of the ancient evil that is plotting against them, of the vile threat that has planned for generations to bring revenge down upon their heads. Imprisoned by an ancient king, this new threat needs only freedom to bring death and destruction to those whose ancestors had it shut away from the world of Terrial. It has waited. It has hungered. It has learned. And now, it is free. When the dwarven kingdom is besieged from all sides by both friend and foe alike, two companions–one dwarf, one human–must calm the flames of chaos before they consume millions of lives. If they are to have any hope of saving their friends and repairing an already damaged relationship, they must shed light on what is causing the rising tide of darkness.

He pulled the door open. He was staring at a pair of feet floating about a metre off the ground. He looked up at his fathers face, which was near the roof, smiling at him in a very gentle way. Son, I think we need to have a talk.' With those words, Xander's world was turned upside down. Should he stay at school and try for the football team, cope with bullies and stick with his friends or go to 'The Institute'? An ultra-secretive, government centre made decades ago to create super-soldiers, but now a school of sorts, for children like himself. And who are the 'Others'? Who are the rebels from the 'Institute' who are supposedly out there, somewhere in society, watching and planning? As Xander tries to adapt to his new abilities, and failing miserably, he begins to see 'Others' at every turn, suspecting everyone. Do they exist at all, or are they closer than he thinks?

Selah Hopewell seems to be the only woman in the Virginia colony who has no wish to wed. True, there are too many men and far too few women in James Towne.

But Xander is already wedded to his business and still grieves the loss of his wife, daughter of the Powhatan chief. Can two fiercely independent people find happiness and fulfillment on their own? Or will they discover that what they've been missing in life has been right in front of them all along? Bestselling and award-winning author Laura Frantz takes you to the salty shores of seventeenth-century Virginia in this exploration of pride, honor, and the restorative power of true love.

Transmediating the Whedonverse(s)
Author: Juliette C. Kitchens
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030246167
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
This book explores the transmedial nature of the storyworlds created by and/or affiliated with television auteur, writer, and filmmaker, Joss Whedon. As such, the book addresses the ways in which Whedon’s storyworlds, or ‘verses, employ transmedia, both intrinsically as texts and extrinsically as these texts are consumed and, in some cases, reworked, by audiences. This collection walks readers through fan and scholar-fan engagement, intrinsic textual transmediality, and Whedon’s lasting influence on televisual and transmedia texts. In closing, the editors argue for the need to continue research into how the Whedonverse(s) lend themselves to transmedial study, engage audiences in ways that take advantage of multiple media, and encourage textual internalization of these engagements within audiences.
