Nimue grew up in a village of druids, but she was feared even by the village elders, for her formidable control of dark magic. We’ve got all the familiar characters (including the sword Excalibur), but the twist with this take on the legend is that the sword has chosen a young woman (Nimue) as the worthy bearer. I was interested in this because of the multi-media aspect – illustrations by noted comic book artist Frank Miller, and that this was (when I started reading this) about to be aired on Netflix as a series (the series was released the day after I finished reading this). We can go years without seeing new Arthur stories being told and then suddenly we get a slough of them. I’ve had an interest in the Arthurian legends for a very, very long time and it’s been interesting to see the cyclical nature of new Arthur-era stories. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() When the war ended, his father returned, but the young Victor found him difficult and comparatively stern after having been alone with his mother. Stanshall described this early period as the happiest time of his childhood. He lived with his mother while his father served in the RAF during World War II. Stanshall was born on 21 March 1943 at the Radcliffe Maternity Home Shillingford, Oxfordshire, son of Victor George Stanshall (1909-1990 born Vivian), at the time of his son's birth an RAF corporal, later a company secretary, then company director ( FCIS), and Eileen Monica Prudence (née Wadeson). ![]() Vivian Stanshall (born Victor Anthony Stanshall 21 March 1943 – 5 March 1995) was an English singer-songwriter, musician, author, poet and wit, best known for his work with the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, for his exploration of the British upper classes in Sir Henry at Rawlinson End (as a radio series for John Peel, as an audio recording, as a book and as a film), and for acting as Master of Ceremonies on Mike Oldfield's album Tubular Bells. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As we all know, that doesn't make a good book - it only grabs your attention. ![]() It had an amazingly beautiful cover and an awesome title. I can't even believe that I finished this book. Heading south to Honora's home on the Gulf Coast, Renata is determined to stop feeling like a wilted gardenia and emerge as the unstoppable kudzu her beloved grandmother proudly proclaimed she would be: "I'll just tell you, Sherman may have burned the South, but kudzu will engulf it." But for that to happen Renata's got to face some not-so-genteel ghosts from her past, discover the truth about the mother she desperately misses, and make peace with the first man who abandoned her and broke her heart-her handsome and distant father. And that was before the tabloids caught her sweetheart, filmmaker Ferg Lauderdale, sharing an intimate squeeze with Hollywood's hottest young tamale.īut the granddaughter of the formidable Honora DeChavannes possesses more hell than belle in her backbone-and she's about to reclaim it. Reeling from the loss of her mother, plagued with a bad case of writer's block (and don't even talk about that extra twenty pounds), Renata DeChavannes feels as though everything is just plain wrong. ![]() 6/9/2023 0 Comments Reza aslan book![]() ![]() However, something was wrong in his statement. To be clear, I want to emphasize one more time, I am a historian, I am a Ph.D. I am a professor of religions, including the New Testament-that's what I do for a living, actually. "I am a scholar of religions with four degrees including one in the New Testament. As Reza Aslan, a Muslim scholar who wrote a book about the life of Jesus, Zealot:The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth, rose to mainstream prominence after his interview gone wrong in Spirited Debate hosted by Lauren Green, many people are now asking legitimate questions about the truth behind his purported credentials on history of religions, and whether his latest book holds scholarly merit.ĭuring the botch interview in, Aslan, in order to defend himself from inquisitive questions from host Lauren Green, was quoted as saying: ![]() 6/8/2023 0 Comments Wonderstruck by Brian Selznick![]() ![]() My first book, The Houdini Box, which I both wrote and illustrated, was published in 1991 while I was still working at the bookstore.

By the late 1980s, however, "Harrison Bergeron" was being reprinted in high school and college literature anthologies. ![]() Initial reviews of the collection generally were less than favorable, with even more positive reviewers, such as Mitchel Levitas in the New York Times and Charles Nicol in the Atlantic Monthly, commenting negatively on the commercial quality of many of the stories. ![]() The story did not receive any critical attention, however, until 1968 when it appeared in Vonnegut's collection It was Vonnegut's third publication in a science fiction magazine following the drying up of the once-lucrative weekly family magazine market where he had published more than twenty stories between 19. "Harrison Bergeron" was first published in the October, 1961, issue of the Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. ![]() ![]() ![]() But the Introduction is more than a compendium of information it is a thoughtful, coherent interpretation of Burke and his book. It situates the Reflections in Burke's life and the development of his ideas, the history of English political thought, the debate about the French Revolution, and the debate the book itself inspired. The editor's Introduction is much more extensive than that of any previous edition. It is certain to become the standard edition for scholars and students alike. Alone among recent versions, it reprints the text of the first edition of the Reflections, and shows how Burke amended it as his knowledge of the Revolution deepened. This edition aims to locate Burke once again in his contemporary political and intellectual setting. Reflections on the Revolution in France is a classic work in a range of fields from history through political science to literature, and securely holds its place among the canon of "great books." Yet its meaning is still contested and often misunderstood, equally by those who wish to admire or to denigrate Burke for his present-day relevance. The French Revolution is a defining moment in world history, and usually it has been first approached by English-speaking readers through the picture painted of it by Edmund Burke. ![]() 6/8/2023 0 Comments Shifter made jennifer ashley![]() ![]() Then Cas reveals he doesn’t mind sharing or watching her with Pol, and Fiona revels in her newfound sexuality. ![]() Pol, more outrageous and daring, teaches her erotic games she’d never known existed.
