Book Description
Templates - a Draft of Poems is a volume composed of eighty poems by the author and writer Frank McGillion. Thematically the works are diverse and include both traditional and modern forms. Many emphasize a style of writing evident in some of his literary work where focusing on nature is used as metaphor more radically than usual. This almost pantheistic setting is used at times to profound effect. However the works include more conventional techniques and have a mosaic of themes pertinent to the art of poetry. Varied, imaginative and strongly evocative, Templates - a Draft of Poems, is a highly original body of work.

The Magnetic North
Author: Elizabeth Robins

ISBN: 1465585869

Languages : en
Pages : 738
Book Description
Of course they were bound for the Klondyke. Every creature in the North-west was bound for the Klondyke. Men from the South too, and men from the East, had left their ploughs and their pens, their factories, pulpits, and easy-chairs, each man like a magnetic needle suddenly set free and turning sharply to the North; all set pointing the self-same way since that July day in '97, when the Excelsior sailed into San Francisco harbour, bringing from the uttermost regions at the top of the map close upon a million dollars in nuggets and in gold-dust. Some distance this side of the Arctic Circle, on the right bank of the Yukon, a little detachment of that great army pressing northward, had been wrecked early in the month of September. They had realised, on leaving the ocean-going ship that landed them at St. Michael's Island (near the mouth of the great river), that they could not hope to reach Dawson that year. But instead of "getting cold feet," as the phrase for discouragement ran, and turning back as thousands did, or putting in the winter on the coast, they determined, with an eye to the spring rush, to cover as many as possible of the seventeen hundred miles of waterway before navigation closed.

The World of Myrrah Box Set
Author: Autumn M. Birt
Publisher: Autumn Writing
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 3006
Book Description
Unlikely Friends. Forbidden Magic. An Ancient Punishment. Enter the world of Myrrah, ruled by the Church of Four Orders—Fire, Earth, Water, and Air. But there exists another gift, dubbed magic, which the Church considers an aberration. To be born with the powers of magic is to be condemned to death. To be born with the ability to control an element is to be bound to a life serving the Church and obeying its rules. The journey begins when Niri, a Water Priestess, stands against the Church to protect Ria, a girl with forbidden magic. This act of defiance sparks an epic fantasy adventure that leads four unlikely friends across the breadth of their world to seek answers hidden in the buried archives of the Temple of Dust. Secrets from an ancient war and discoveries of hidden power lead to a fight for survival that threatens to tear apart their world. What is magic, and why does the Church want those who harbor its power exterminated? Within the answer to that question lies the seeds of an ancient punishment, one that was better left undisturbed. As one adventure ends, a new one begins. This time, the stakes are even higher. To save their world and the next, they must remove all elemental magic. Success will destroy elemental magic. Failure condemns this world and the next. Return to the world of Myrrah with Lavinia, Zhao, and their companions in the award-winning sequel series, Games of Fire. Six months after a tragic war, the heroes face new challenges as old enemies rise and new alliances are tested. The Ashanti, cursed with lifespans of less than a decade, seek to conquer death by gaining control of the spirit realm, threatening to burn the world to ashes. Lavinia, now the Guardian of the Spheres, must close the gates to the spirit realm to stop the Ashanti, but each closure weakens the elemental magic they need to fight. The ultimate battle for the future of Myrrah unfolds as friendships are tested, sacrifices are made, and the fate of two worlds hangs in the balance. This boxset includes both the complete Rise of the Fifth Order Trilogy and the award-winning sequel, the Games of Fire trilogy, plus the Series Companion and Untold Stories—a collection of novellas and short stories set in the same world, featuring many familiar characters. Nominated for Best Book of 2017 and winner of Best Worldbuilding, these books will sweep you away to a new world full of magic, danger, and just a dash of dragons. Pick up this exhilarating tale today and discover why readers praise it as “the sort of read that reminds us how great fantasy can be” and “strong characters and a beautiful world hold up a fine story. We love Ms. Birt’s work, we only wish we’d found her sooner.”
