Book Description
A man who has lived only for this moment. A woman who never wanted to be chosen. A powerful elder vampire who will soon awaken. Georgia Pearce doesn’t know why she was born with psychic abilities—a curse that has caused her to keep others at a distance for most of her life. But when she discovers a long-hidden artifact by accident, she immediately knows that it has chosen her to carry out an impossible quest. As a rare angel-vampire hybrid, Zak Goodwin has been seeking purpose for longer than he can even remember. He finds it when a dormant family relic wakes up due to an unforeseen connection and leads him straight to a human who knows nothing of him, his world, or what this new surge of magic could mean for the world at large. An ancient power is awakening, and only they can stop it from bringing on a new era of darkness. Georgia and Zak don’t know why they were chosen or what draws them to each other so intensely, but they won’t be able to succeed without giving their all to the mission. Losing focus could mean condemning the world to a fiery end, which means staying alive isn’t nearly as dangerous as falling in love.

A matchless warrior is pitted against a near-God in the second epic installment of the Raven’s Blade series. It has long been our lot in life, brother, to do what others can’t. Vaelin Al Sorna was known across the realm as the greatest of warriors, but he thought battles were behind him. He was wrong.

After a costly defeat by the Darkblade, Vaelin’s forces are shattered, while the self-proclaimed immortal and his army continue their terrible march. But during the clash, Vaelin regained some of the dark magic that once gave him unrivaled skill in battle. And though the fight he has been drawn into seems near unwinnable, the song that drives him now desires the blood of his enemy above all else…

Poulenc: The Life in the Songs
Author: Graham Johnson
Publisher: Liveright Publishing
ISBN: 1631495240
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 470
Book Description
One of the greatest modernist composers comes alive in this illuminating biography, a must-have for musicians and music-lovers alike. Francis Poulenc (1899–1963) is widely acknowledged as one of the twentieth century’s most significant masters of vocal music —solo, choral, and operatic— quite apart from his achievements in instrumental spheres. But what it cost him, and the determined bravery it took for his unusual talent to thrive, has always been underestimated. In this seminal biography, which will serve as the definitive guide to the songs, acclaimed collaborative pianist Graham Johnson shows that it is in Poulenc’s extraordinary songs, and seeing how they fit into his life —which included crippling guilt on account of his sexuality— that we discover Poulenc heart and soul. With Jeremy Sams’s vibrant new song translations, the first in over forty years, and the insight that comes from a lifetime of performing this music, Johnson provides an essential volume for singers, pianists, listeners, and readers interested in the artistic milieu of modernism in the first half of the twentieth century.
