Book Description
This is a tale of true emotions, unspoken until the end. A tale of marriage between two worlds, of human will and resolve. Once upon a time, Irede, the town of pleasure, was built in reverence to a god. To this day, the god still lingers there, and the old contract is maintained. Wine, music, and warmth are given and received as sacred offerings. And in keeping with the contract, Sari, a courtesan and Irede’s singular maiden, must soon receive her one and only guest. Meanwhile, Xixu, a young man who not long ago learned Irede’s hidden secret for himself, is doing his best to fulfill his duty as one of the town’s shadeslayers while striving to support Sari with her own. Into this delicately balanced world arrives a fresh face, sending ripples of change throughout the town. Soon, little by little, people seem to begin drifting away from who they once were. Xixu thus steps forward, ready to investigate the cause. But who knows what he will discover lying in wait for him...?

Sari, a maiden with the ability to bind shades, is the proprietress of a living myth: the courtesan house Pale Moon. And when she meets Xixu, a shadeslayer fresh from the capital, restless shadows begin stirring beneath the town’s surface...

Book Description
“To you, I devote my love in its entirety.” The contract between a human and a god reaches its conclusion in this finale volume of A Pale Moon Reverie! Fine wine, music, and warmth. These are the three sacred offerings the pleasure town of Irede dedicates to its god. Since time immemorial, Irede has remained free of the fires of international conflict, indifferent to the changing of other nations’ borders. Yet the clouds of war are now drifting across the entire continent, threatening to leave none untouched. In this town of brilliance and color, where powers clash, each to their own motive, Xixu fights in the shadows to protect Sari and her beloved home. Meanwhile, Sari firms her resolve: she will choose her guest—the only one she will take in her lifetime. Predestined fate stands in our protagonists’ way, demanding to be overturned. What will be the conclusion to this tale of myth and humanity?

Book Description
This book is volume 2 of a 4 volume series, the first 3 of which have been published by Xlibris and the 4th almost complete for imminent delivery. In its entirety this work is the most comprehensive and accurate account of Australian Classical Music making ever undertaken. Its scope is from 1901-2012 and includes more than 800 composers, famous and obscure, with more than 30,000 compositions including details of their premieres (where, when and by whom). Individual performers, ensembles, orchestras, opera and ballet companies, music educators, instrument makers, academics, entrepreneurs, philanthropists and critics are included as part of the story. The foundation and demise of music institutions, venues and festivals is recorded chronologically. Altogether an extensive picture of Australian Classical Music production and performance can be gleaned in any given year. This book is distinct insofar as it can be read conventionally (from cover to cover); or one may choose a composer/performer and follow his/her career year by year; or one may open the book at random and delight in the unusual and esoteric information therein. This book, and its companion volumes, are valuable and indispensable works for the serious music student, professional musician, performing amateur, cultural aficionado and inquisitive lay person.

Book Description
In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.
