Pages : 254
Book Description
Amidst the gently rolling hills and endless cornfields of rural Iowa, a religious order known as the Community has existed separate from the outside world since the 1850s. To outsiders, it is a peaceful paradise where faith in God, hard work, family, and total obedience to the Community are expected. Eben Wittmer is almost sixteen, an age when men are expected to take baptism, marry, and make their lives in a place where nothing ever changes. His older brother, Josiah, wants nothing to do with the restrictive life he is expected to live and fights against their father, an Elder who thinks of nothing but his own power and prestige. By helping his brother find his way, Eben is slowly drawn into the darkness which lies just below the surface of their seemingly idyllic way of life. What he finds is more terrifying than anything he ever could have imagined.

Author: Rosie Morgan
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781497402249
Category : Fantasy
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A children's book packed with action and adventure, magic and fantasy, perfect for middle-grade children (boys and girls) and teens of 9-12, and 11-14. The Golden Sword is a present-day King Arthur book with a twist; a mystery story from beginning to end. Arthur Penhaligon thinks he's just an ordinary kid but his destiny is calling and it involves a sword ... of the legendary variety.Skateboarding might just have to take second place.Who is the mysterious Crow Man? Why is he following Arthur and his friends? And who is the new teacher who's arrived at school? Arthur and his friends find themselves sucked into an epic world of magic, mystery and danger. A world where people travel through time, animals take control, and rivals are willing to resort to murder. Myth and legend, fantasy and adventure have never seemed so real, or so dangerous. Excalibur is waiting. THE GOLDEN SWORD is the first in this epic fantasy series.It's Arthurian, but not as you know it.Finalist in the 2014 Wishing Shelf Independent Book Awards;2015 IndieBRAG Medallion honouree;Nominated for the 2015 Holyer an Gof Awards. 'This novel has the type of cross age-appeal as say, Harry Potter or Percy Jackson. Kids will love it, but so will the adults!'Indie Book Reviews. A thrilling mystery and fantasy book with action & adventure. Ideal for boys and girls and teenagers aged 10 to 14. The second and third in THE CAMELOT INHERITANCE series have now been released: THE TIME SMUGGLERS and MERLIN'S VOW continue the story of Arthur's quest - and the story of four teenagers, some ancient knights ... and a dragon (a very tiny one), pitted against time-defying enemies. Camelot is calling. A SNAPSHOT INTO ROSIE'S LIFE When I was about 10 -14 years old, I loved reading action & adventure stories and mysteries filled with magic. I used to haunt our local library, borrowing anything with a vaguely magical theme. It had to be well-written with a gripping story, action-filled and a page-turner. (My all-time favourite author? C.S.Lewis.) So the seeds were sown. One day I'd write books for children too! The next question: So is this book for boys or girls? The answer: For both! Boys and girls between the ages of 10-14, teens and preteens, have read and loved it; although lots of adults are enjoying it too! If you love a fast-paced fantasy, then THE CAMELOT INHERITANCE series could be right for you. I'd be absolutely delighted (and honoured) if you like it enough to leave a review.

The Hermes Parchment

Publisher: The Funny Book Company
ISBN: 1913383458
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
Where goes the King’s Investigator, there goes death; by murder, usually. The author of the Best Selling The Heretics of De'Ath and other tales too numerous to be polite, does not know when to stop. Despite his protestations that disaster is inevitable, Brother Hermitage travels to Lincoln to sort out a library. It’s the task of his dreams, even if he’s reasonably confident that someone will get murdered in the process. And there are several candidates. One of those troublesome Norman soldiers in the tavern? The king’s tenant-in-chief, Lord Colesvain, who has just forced the whole town to build his house for him? Colesvain’s objectionable son, Picot, who has a rather unhealthy interest in “illustrated” literature? But a library should be safe enough; apart from the librarian obsessed with books on sorcery and magic, obviously. Delving in the bottom of a box of books delivered from a long-lost monastery, Hermitage discovers the great Hermes Parchment and the whole world goes mad. Hermitage, Wat and Cwen become embroiled in events that were pretty embroiled to begin with.There are wise men of the woods who turn out to be no such thing, and suggestions of an evil secret hidden in the parchment’s pages just waiting to be released. And a dead body turns up. Just as Hermitage said it would. Told you so. It’s yet another outing for the world’s most medieval detective. "very good indeed, brilliant," BBC Coventry and Warwick 5* Hilarious 5* Like Pratchett does 1066 5* Laugh out loud with a good mystery. 1* Stupid

Youth and Memory in Europe
Author: Félix Krawatzek
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110733501
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 405
Book Description
This volume contends that young individuals across Europe relate to their country’s history in complex and often ambivalent ways. It pays attention to how both formal education and broader culture communicate ideas about the past, and how young people respond to these ideas. The studies collected in this volume show that such ideas about the past are central to the formation of the group identities of nations, social movements, or religious groups. Young people express received historical narratives in new, potentially subversive, ways. As young people tend to be more mobile and ready to interrogate their own roots than later generations, they selectively privilege certain aspects of their identities and their identification with their family or nation while neglecting others. This collection aims to correct the popular misperception that young people are indifferent towards history and prove instead that historical narratives are constitutive to their individual identities and their sense of belonging to something broader than themselves.

Researching Memory and Identity in Russia and Eastern Europe
Author: Jade McGlynn
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030999149
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
This book offers a collection of innovative methodological approaches to Memory Studies in Russia and Eastern Europe. Providing insights into the relationship between memory and identity, the twelve chapters provide multidisciplinary analysis of how history is used to reinforce, remould, and reinvent national and group identities. This analysis includes a strong emphasis on interrogating the role of the researcher and the impact of methodology, exploring the field’s most pressing challenges, such as the subjectivity of remembrance, reception versus production of discourse, and the inclusion of marginal perspectives. By focussing on countries in which the past is highly politicised, including Serbia, Ukraine, Poland, Russia and the Baltic States, the volume also analyses the diverse – and often conflicting – ways in which historical narratives emerge from these states’ efforts to create new pasts that shape their respective visions of the future, with pressing ramifications across this region and beyond.
