Book Description
Book one starts off with the introduction of a cloaked figure and his werewolf companion crossing the border into the newly good-ified land of Dikay. We then explain the history of the mighty warrior Van Von Hunter. Like all Legends, his is not without embellishing. Hence, we end up telling the audience a number of inaccuracies... Von Hunter is a thousand years old, and the like. Only with slick placement of dialogue well within the books will readers eventually start to uncover the real history of Von Hunter. After the history lesson we move on to VVH's side kick. After a terrible and truly earth-shaking explosion caused by the Apoxagedon spell during the final battle with the Flaming Prince, SK lost all of her memories of fighting evil with VVH and was in turn separated from him. That was three years ago. Since that time she found her way to a little village and has been living out her life; totally devoid of her past memories. She lives with an older couple who have taken her in as the daughter they never had and she works as a bar wench. Lo, these past three years, VVH has been roaming the countryside and looking for evil to smite. Oddly, the land has become more and more peace

The Fox Was Ever the Hunter
Author: Herta Müller
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 0805096027
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
An early masterpiece from the winner of the Nobel Prize hailed as the laureate of life under totalitarianism Romania-the last months of the Ceausescu regime. Adina is a young schoolteacher. Paul is a musician. Clara works in a wire factory. Pavel is Clara's lover. But one of them works for the secret police and is reporting on all of the group. One day Adina returns home to discover that her fox fur rug has had its tail cut off. On another occasion it's the hindleg. Then a foreleg. The mutilated fur is a sign that she is being tracked by the secret police-the fox was ever the hunter. Images of photographic precision combine into a kaleidoscope of terror as Adina and her friends struggle to keep mind and body intact in a world pervaded by complicity and permeated with fear, where it's hard to tell victim from perpetrator. In The Fox Was Always a Hunter, Herta Müller once again uses language that displays the "concentration of poetry and the frankness of prose"-as the Swedish Academy noted upon awarding her the Nobel Prize-to create a hauntingly cinematic portrayal of the corruption of the soul under totalitarianism.
