Pages : 294
Book Description
In the hidden village of Senri, a people exist for the sole purpose of protecting the Armoon Empire as they have for centuries. In Senri, when one reaches five-years-old, they are either destined to walk the path of the sun under the God Crimson and learn the ways of the sword, or they walk the path of the moon, under the Goddess Lunaria and learn magic. Senri has survived by raising warriors and mages in such a matter but the balance is breaking and the two factions grow further apart by the day. Kilik, a young mage about to go on his coming of age journey, wishes nothing more than to learn the sword like his father, but such an idea of mixing the arts is blasphemy and worthy of expulsion from the village forever. When given the choice by a mysterious and powerful stranger, will Kilik bow down to his destiny and become a mage or will he decide his own fate and walk the precarious path of both sword and magic?

Book Description
Dry ground is a dream, one owned by few on Terra II. Ever since losing contact with Earth, much of the surviving human colony has known nothing but life on the open water. Land is for the ruling class who govern the planet and regulate trade, a place the seaborn have never seen. For them, survival in the harsh conditions of open water and the dangers rampant in the floating cities is a daily struggle. For some, the wavelanders, survival comes at a cost of personal freedoms, were the community thrives due to its strict traditions. For Nerida, life as a wavelander means marriage to man she hates and whom she will do anything to escape. Although travel alone in the expanse of the Greater Sea means certain death from pirates and the creatures that dwell out there, it is a risk she is willing to take. Despite the risks, it is also a life of loneliness and isolation until she is saved by a being who rises from the depths. A male unlike any other she has ever seen before. He calls her his mate but a possible future between them is threatened when she is forced to confront everything she ran from.Ji'wa is a Sirein who is plagued with responsibilities in a life that he never wanted. For generations, the Sirei have lived in spaceships looking for a new home for their species after escaping a dying world. When dire situations force them to make their home on a watery world dotted with land, the orders are to stay clear of the dangers above the seas and especially far away from the beings who dwell above the waves. When Ji'wa saves a finless land-dweller, he cannot forget the strange being nor ignore the call of the mating bond. Attempting to mate with the alien female carries many risks, but he will embrace them all for a chance to be with her...but will he be able to claim his mate before the sea demands his return?Welcome to a dystopian alien retelling of the little mermaid fairy tale.

Book Description
"The Maasai, basically a cattle-keeping people, live in East Africa on both sides of the Kenya-Tanzania border. . . . [Their] language and culture [are] under great stress and pressure from present-day ideas of modern life. . . . Maasai children learn their language from their mothers, but most of these children when they go to school will never learn to read or write in their mother tongue. None of them will ever know the basics of the grammar of their own language. This book tries to preserve as much as possible of Maa, the language, and Olmaa, the culture. It may best be described as a depository of linguistic and cultural data of the Maasai." -- Introduction, p. iii.
