Book Description
‘Hard-hitting’ Hansda Sowvendra Shekhar ‘[A] novel of deep feeling’ Tanuj Solanki Residents of a small town in Tamil Nadu are stunned by the beheading of a prominent man, whose head is missing from the scene of the crime. Everyone suspects Veni, a geography teacher at the local school, but she appears to have vanished from the face of the earth. As the police gather testimonies from those who closely knew Veni, unsettling truths about this seemingly unknowable woman’s past gradually come to the fore. Where is Veni? The question haunts her family and other townsfolk, but the investigating officer has a different problem: Who is Veni? Where Mayflies Live Forever is as much a suspenseful mystery as it is a story about one woman’s self-discovery in the natural world, with a disillusioned but probing heart. Anupama Mohan’s astonishing literary debut, written in fiery yet sublime prose and rendered with extraordinary power, is an absorbing exploration of violence and trauma, choice and identity, and the journey to find oneself in the wild.

ISBN: 0595429289
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
A killer without remorse, burning with pride, and having the time of his life, Zachary Marshall is unstoppable-until Detective Jonas Peters unexpectedly arrives in the midst of one of Marshall's heinous crimes. After a bank robbery goes from bad to worse and leaves three dead-including a little girl-Marshall finds himself the target of the most intensive manhunt Riverside, California, has ever witnessed. Detective Peters becomes frustrated and half-crazed as the case falters due to lack of clues and evidence. Ordered to take a vacation from the department before he drives all the other detectives crazy with his constant tirades, he reluctantly agrees. But an innocent remark to the media changes the entire scenario-now the pursued has become the pursuer. Detective Peters takes this homicide case especially hard, having seen his own young daughter murdered during a bungled convenience-store robbery years earlier. The pain of the darkness is too deep, and the spirits are waiting to remind him; they will not forgive him, and he cannot forgive himself. There will be no rest until Marshall is caught.

Templates - a Draft of Poems is a volume composed of eighty poems by the author and writer Frank McGillion. Thematically the works are diverse and include both traditional and modern forms. Many emphasize a style of writing evident in some of his literary work where focusing on nature is used as metaphor more radically than usual. This almost pantheistic setting is used at times to profound effect. However the works include more conventional techniques and have a mosaic of themes pertinent to the art of poetry. Varied, imaginative and strongly evocative, Templates - a Draft of Poems, is a highly original body of work.

The World of Myrrah Box Set
Author: Autumn M. Birt
Publisher: Autumn Writing
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 3006
Book Description
Unlikely Friends. Forbidden Magic. An Ancient Punishment. Enter the world of Myrrah, ruled by the Church of Four Orders—Fire, Earth, Water, and Air. But there exists another gift, dubbed magic, which the Church considers an aberration. To be born with the powers of magic is to be condemned to death. To be born with the ability to control an element is to be bound to a life serving the Church and obeying its rules. The journey begins when Niri, a Water Priestess, stands against the Church to protect Ria, a girl with forbidden magic. This act of defiance sparks an epic fantasy adventure that leads four unlikely friends across the breadth of their world to seek answers hidden in the buried archives of the Temple of Dust. Secrets from an ancient war and discoveries of hidden power lead to a fight for survival that threatens to tear apart their world. What is magic, and why does the Church want those who harbor its power exterminated? Within the answer to that question lies the seeds of an ancient punishment, one that was better left undisturbed. As one adventure ends, a new one begins. This time, the stakes are even higher. To save their world and the next, they must remove all elemental magic. Success will destroy elemental magic. Failure condemns this world and the next. Return to the world of Myrrah with Lavinia, Zhao, and their companions in the award-winning sequel series, Games of Fire. Six months after a tragic war, the heroes face new challenges as old enemies rise and new alliances are tested. The Ashanti, cursed with lifespans of less than a decade, seek to conquer death by gaining control of the spirit realm, threatening to burn the world to ashes. Lavinia, now the Guardian of the Spheres, must close the gates to the spirit realm to stop the Ashanti, but each closure weakens the elemental magic they need to fight. The ultimate battle for the future of Myrrah unfolds as friendships are tested, sacrifices are made, and the fate of two worlds hangs in the balance. This boxset includes both the complete Rise of the Fifth Order Trilogy and the award-winning sequel, the Games of Fire trilogy, plus the Series Companion and Untold Stories—a collection of novellas and short stories set in the same world, featuring many familiar characters. Nominated for Best Book of 2017 and winner of Best Worldbuilding, these books will sweep you away to a new world full of magic, danger, and just a dash of dragons. Pick up this exhilarating tale today and discover why readers praise it as “the sort of read that reminds us how great fantasy can be” and “strong characters and a beautiful world hold up a fine story. We love Ms. Birt’s work, we only wish we’d found her sooner.”
