Book Description
Journey to the country of Jaiya, in a world not quite like ours. Here, humans ride trains, drive cars, and use cell phones, but they share their world with insect people and trollfolk, and stranger things lurk in the shadows… In a place like Jaiya, even a business woman has to respect her parents. So Rina agrees to come back to the mountain village where her parents live, and take part in an old local custom: a symbolic marriage between the town’s women and a mythical monster. She’s more interested in the handsome but mysterious folklorist traveling up the mountain with her than she is in the upcoming ceremony. After all, the wedding is just a sham…but what about the monster? Note: This is a new, professionally edited ediiton of this book. Rina and another character are friends with or related to a few characters from the later books in the Jaiya Series, but Monster is meant as a standalone with a “happily ever after” ending. The romance is on the sweet side, but there is some violence due to the main characters’ encounters with monsters and criminals.

Two hundred and sixty-four years after the first awakening, the family line stops momentarily, perhaps forever, in the body of a child. Victor is a second-grader growing up with a very unique family history: he is a direct descendant of the monster created by his namesake, Victor Frankenstein. Understandably proud of this distinction, his effort to share this remarkable fact with his classmates and teachers backfires, and he becomes a target on the playground. He is not without allies. With the help of his grandmother, Elizabeth, and his best friend, Michelle, he learns the origin of his family's strange history straight from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. He learns how that story continued with the surprising journey of the monster and his monster-bride to America. And finally, he learns about the end of making monsters on earth. But there are elements in this history about which even those closest to it are unaware. Wonders abound and dangers lurk for Victor and his loved ones in unexpected places. Monster Talk is a poignant tale about the power of reading, the complexity of love, the wonder and terror of growing up, and the moral ambiguity of the species, human and monster both.

Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
Before Christianity reached the Celtic territory, a rich landlord Dinkins had many women. The one he loved mostly was called Sophia. Sophia loved him too. One day, Dinkins saved a pretty girl named Vipy, in a wild mountain pass. Since she was homeless, Dinkins kept her living with him. They lived happily, before a Christian apostle Farley told Dinkins that he was bewitched by a monster. Farley gave him a cross and told him that it could protect him from danger. Soon, Dinkins found Vipy was in fact a werewolf under a beautiful skin. The cross though worked a little but it wasn't enough as protecting him and it revealed his unfaithfulness to their love. It rouse Vipy's wrath. As a monster, she didn't know how to win the heart of a human being so she gouged out Dinkins'; physical heart and left him dead. Sophia turned to Farley for help. Farley killed the werewolf but he could not return the life of Dinkins; only Death had the power to do it. After being humiliated and insulted by the Death, Sophia did have her husband's heart back and saved him. When Dinkins revived and was told what Farley had done for him, he donated all his property to church. For this reason, many years late, when his son Xu grew up, the family was poor and no girl wanted to marry him. At Lughnasadh (a Celtic festival), Xu met a beautiful girl. In despite of many pursuers, she loved him. Xu was exited and worried by this unmatched love but his sister warned him that the girl might be another monster like Vipy. She told him a good method to test it. At the night of Halloween, Celt used to drink whisky with pumpkin, for it was the poison of monsters; the smell could protect innocent people from them. The sister told her brother to drink it with the suspected girl at that night.
