Avatar: The Last Airbender meets Gladiator in the first book in this epic fantasy duology in which two warriors must decide where their loyalties lie as an ancient war between immortals threatens humanity—from Sara Raasch, the New York Times bestselling author of the Snow Like Ashes series, and Kristen Simmons, acclaimed author of Pacifica and The Deceivers. Perfect for fans of An Ember in the Ashes, And I Darken, and The Winner’s Curse. Ash is descended from a long line of gladiators, and she knows the brutal nature of war firsthand. But after her mother dies in an arena, she vows to avenge her by overthrowing her fire god, whose temper has stripped her country of its resources. Madoc grew up fighting on the streets to pay his family’s taxes. But he hides a dangerous secret: he doesn’t have the earth god’s powers like his opponents. His elemental gift is something else—something that hasn’t been seen in centuries. When an attempted revenge plot goes dangerously wrong, Ash inadvertently throws the fire and earth gods into a conflict that can only be settled by deadly, lavish gladiator games, throwing Madoc in Ash’s path. She realizes that his powers are the weapon her rebellion needs—but Madoc won’t jeopardize his family, regardless of how intrigued he is by the beautiful warrior. But when the gods force Madoc’s hand, he and Ash uncover an ancient war that will threaten more than one immortal—it will unravel the world.

The EPIC Generation: Experiential, Participative, Image-Driven, Connected
Author: Jose A. Fadul
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0557418771
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 70
Book Description
The characteristics of students of today were gathered from student outputs, key informants and literature regarding students’ life style positioning and peculiar traits. From the data collected, key points were marked with codes extracted from the text and grouped into similar concepts. From these concepts, categories were formed, which became the basis for an acronym to describe the peculiar characteristics of today’s generation. At saturation point the acronym “epic†was chosen to convey the four emergent themes which may literally mean, “extending beyond the usual or ordinary especially in size or scope†. Indeed, the present generation is of unprecedented size in its interconnections via World Wide Web. Secondly, this generation is fittingly called Epic Generation because of its peculiar characteristics: experiential, participative, image-driven, and connected.
