![]() ![]() There is another wonder in the region called Buelt. It gives a list of marvels around Britain, one of them being the footprint left in rock by Arthur's dog Cavall (here Latinized as Cabal), made while chasing the great boar (here called Troynt): The Mirabilia is believed to be near-contemporaneous to Nennius' ninth-century Historia Brittonum and is found appended to it in many extant manuscripts. The earliest reference to the boar Trwyth occurs in the tract De Mirabilibus Britanniae (or Mirabilia in shorthand), variously titled in English as " Wonders of Britain". The name in Welsh can be construed to mean "the boar Trwyth", and may have its analogue in the boar Triath of Irish mythology (see #Etymology and Irish cognate below). ![]() A passing reference to Twrch Trwyth also occurs in the elegy Gwarchan Cynfelyn preserved in the Book of Aneirin. However, a richly elaborate account of the great hunt appears in the Welsh prose romance Culhwch and Olwen, probably written around 1100. The names of the hound and boar are glimpsed in a piece of geographical onomasticon composed in Latin in the ninth century, the Historia Brittonum. ![]() ![]() ![]() But on the night of his final rite of passage, a fire upends his plans. ![]() But the night her loved ones’ own safety is threatened by the Zoo’s cruel master, Koffi unleashes a power she doesn’t fully understand-and the consequences are dire.Īs the second son of a decorated hero, Ekon is all but destined to become a Son of the Six-an elite warrior-and uphold a family legacy.

Magic doesn’t exist in the broken city of Lkossa anymore, especially for girls like sixteen-year-old Koffi. The full synopsis reveals how much world-building Gray does in Beasts of Prey, which is expected to be the first installment in a trilogy: Two Black teenagers as they strike a dangerous alliance and head out on a journey to hunt down the vicious monster menacing their hometown, uncovering deadly secrets along the way. ![]() ![]() ![]() But they cannot begin to imagine the creeping insanity that has already begun to pull them under. They think they've seen the worst monsters in America, but as they pull up to the maximum security asylum where one Aldo Sax speaks in strange tongues, Agents Brears and Lamper may be beginning to suspect that they're about to see something so much worse. ![]() ![]() The all-new all-Alan Moore horror series spoken of only in hushed whispers for years is finally here!

Koren Zailckas ' first book - Smashed - was the riveting, absorbing story of her teenage alcoholism. ![]() When Randy’s failing career as a real estate agent makes finances tight and their home goes into foreclosure, Gracie feels she has no choice but to return to the illegal and high-stakes lifestyle of her past in order to ensure her family’s future.

There are two levels to the horror in this novel. “She was a pulsating piece of meat full of inconvenient nerve-endings and un-cauterised vessels.” Usually we just skip ahead to when the mother leaves the hospital, so I like that Golding takes the time to bring us into the reality of Lauren’s exhaustingly grim world – a reality for many mothers. I don’t think I have ever read a book that lingers so much on the immediacy of childbirth and its aftermath. Lauren is so utterly human and vulnerable, which instantly makes her likeable. What makes it worse for our protagonist Lauren is that she has two babies to deal with, when one baby alone is enough to send most running for the hills. Your body no longer looks the way it used to, the healing and recuperation can take a toll and now, suddenly and a little intrusively, there is a newcomer to consider. There is such joy experienced in creation, yet your body and your mind is in a way torched and set ablaze to bring forth new life. ![]() Motherhood, like other things in life, contains paradoxical aspects. ![]() “Lauren’s reflection had deep shadowed holes where it should have had eyes. ![]() ![]() ![]() She says: "My first novel Dark Desiring was published in 1988, and it was the greatest thrill of my life when I held the book in my hands, family excepted. She has always loved romance novels, exotic men in exotic places, and when her boys were at school all day she thought she would try writing one. Her mother taught Jackie to believe she could do anything she tried. Jackie met her husband Jim, when she was eighteen and after a few adventures when she traveled around the world they finally married eight years later.They had two sons, who were raised in Northumbria. But she always felt a little guilty, as her diary was more fiction than fact. Jackie (to everyone except for mum) has always been an avid reader (torch under the bedcover typeas a child) and she had her first success as a writer at the age of 11, whenshe won the first prize in the Nature Diary of the year competition atschool. Jacqueline Baird was born on the 1st of April at home in a small village in Northumbria, the Border County of England. ![]() ![]() ![]() Tension builds as Curtis inches ever closer to his perceived destiny readers will be guessing until the last page. ![]() Although the highway is dotted with stock characters and routine plot twists (naturally, the car’s transmission breaks down in the middle of nowhere), DeBoard deftly navigates a complicated father-daughter relationship through alternating first-person narratives. But Curtis has an ulterior motive-he thinks he’s figured out what will finally set things right for the Kaufmans. Shortly after learning that Daniel’s killer has been released from prison, Curtis has a breakdown, and he and Olivia pack up the car and hit the road for what she thinks is an impromptu father–daughter road trip. : The Mourning Hours (9780778314974) by DeBoard, Paula Treick and a great selection of similar New, Used and Collectible Books available now at great prices. Daniel’s father, Curtis, can’t shake his obsession with the man responsible for Daniel’s death mother Kathleen has deserted the family and moved from Sacramento to Omaha and anxious younger sister Olivia keeps meticulous track of every irrational fear that crosses her mind. Five years later, the Kaufman family has completely fallen apart. Daniel Kaufman-musical prodigy, honor student, and all-around nice guy-is killed in an apparent hit-and-run collision shortly after he begins his freshman year at Oberlin. ![]() DeBoard’s second novel (after The Mourning Hours) explores revenge and redemption through the eyes of a grieving family. ![]() |
