"YOU HAVE TO READ ZINNIA! This book definitely surpasses my expectations ... which were pretty high because Bauer's novels are just that amazing. Grab this book. You know you wanna!"?-?Haddie's HavenAs the last dragon shifter, I live alone, hiding in one of Earth’s sacred deserts. My human handlers tell me that I have no parents, no name, and no purpose other than to train for battle and one day become a vessel for the reincarnation of Chimera, the greatest dragon shifter of all. Sadly, Chimera’s rebirth will mean my own death. But my handlers say this sacrifice is a noble fate that will rebuild the dragon shifter world.I shall die on my seventeenth birthday. That’s five days from now.Then I hear music thumping across the desert. I take my mortal form, follow the sound, and find humans dancing in what they call a rave. There is a stage and a rock band. One thing quickly becomes clear: Unlike the audience, the musicians are dragon shifters, just like me. And one of them, the guitar player Rhodes, makes my knees turn watery. The lead singer, Kaps, has something strangely familiar about her.It all adds up to one conclusion: My handlers lied to me. I’m not the last of my kind. Memories reappear. I had parents once. Portia and Tempest. I even had a name. Zinnia. Perhaps I have a reason to live as well. I step past the dancing humans to confront the players.I will find out the full truth, no matter what.?"Sweet mother of mercy ANGELBOUND is beyond fabulous!"?-?For Your Literary Pleasure BlogAngelbound Offspring1.

Moby-Dick is a novel by Herman Melville, in which an eerily compelling madman is pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than an encyclopedia of whaling lore and legend, Moby-Dick is a haunting, mesmerizing, and important social commentary populated with several of the most unforgettable and enduring characters in literature. Written with wonderfully redemptive humor, Moby-Dick is a profound and timeless inquiry into character, faith, and the nature of perception.

Egy korszak, egy id?szak végéhez értünk. Az, kinek van szeme, és van füle, jól látja és hallja, hogy valami elkezd?d?tt, valami már visszafordíthatatlanul egy esemény felé vezeti az emberiséget. Az, hogy ilyen nagy lélekszámban vagyunk most itt, nem véletlen. Meg szeretnénk tapasztalni a változást. De ehhez pusztán a jelenlétünk nem elég! Ez a k?nyv egy olyan fiatal lányról szól, aki a nagy világégést túlélte, és egyedül járja útját, mígnem találkozások sora veszi kezdetét olyan emberekkel, lényekkel, kik mind-mind segítik ?t a Megértés útján. Mesterek ?k, kik eligazítják a félelem, az irigység, a hatalomvágy, a szerelem, a szeretet, és még oly sok érzelem megértésében, valamint a háborút megel?z? id?szak tébolyának m?k?désében, mely teljesen agymosottá tette az emberiség t?bbségét! Abban az illúzióvilágban, melynek már utolsó napjait élte, végre ezen Mesterek segítségével megérhetett a továbblépésre és a felemelkedésre! Nagyon nagy szeretettel ajánlom k?nyvemet mindazoknak, kik érzik, hogy egy új helyzet elé értünk!

Ez a k?tet a Képzelt riport egy amerikai pop-fesztiválról cím? m? részletes és illusztrált feltárása. Abba a bohém és szertelen világba kalauzolja el az olvasót, amelyet Déry Tibor nem gy?z?tt szimbólumokkal betakarni. De nem azért, hogy elfedje, hanem hogy fel?lt?ztesse és megmutassa. A kül?nb?z? fejezetek a karakterek mélyelemzése és a valóság fikcióval való ?sszevetése mellett azt is taglalják, hogy mely társadalmi rendszerek alkotják azt az óriási káoszérzést, amit a fesztivál keretez. A rajzok kiválóan hangsúlyozzák a metaforákat és a pszichedeliát. A szerz? átfogóan ismerteti a remekm? színpadi változatát, régi és mai vonatkozásait, fogadtatását. ?gy válik ez a k?nyv az irodalom, a t?rténelem, a zene és a színház csodálatos elegyévé.

Noul ei inceput devine curand propriul cosmar… O femeie strabate statul american Arizona alaturi de copiii ei, incercand sa scape dintr-o relatie abuziva. Undeva pe drum, este insa oprita de un serif local ce se comporta straniu, lucrurile scapa repede de sub control, iar ea este retinuta de politie. Pe cand ajunge in arestul orasului Silver Water, copiii ei s-au facut nevazuti, iar politistii incep sa sustina ca acestia nici nu au existat. Daca sunt intr-adevar disparuti, sigur e din vina mamei lor… Intre timp, in partea cealalta a tarii, un barbat aude stirile televizate insistent despre cazul celor doi copii disparuti, care ii amintesc atat de bine de o intamplare din trecutul lui. In timp ce cautarea copiilor intra pe ultima suta de metri, este si el atras in efortul tuturor de a-i gasi. ?Un thriller fenomenal – o femeie singura, un scenariu de cosmar, mize ridicate, suspans care iti taie rasuflarea si final pe masura.

Doris Lessing’s first book after winning the Nobel Prize for Literature revisits her childhood in Southern Africa and the lives, both fictional and factual, that her parents led. ‘I think my father'’s rage at the trenches took me over, when I was very young, and has never left me. Do children feel their parents' emotions? Yes, we do, and it is a legacy I could have done without. What is the use of it? It is as if that old war is in my own memory, my own consciousness.’ In this extraordinary book, Doris Lessing explores the lives of her parents, both of them irrevocably damaged by the Great War. Her father wanted the simple life of an English farmer, but shrapnel almost killed him in the trenches, and thereafter he had to wear a wooden leg. Her mother Emily's great love was a doctor who drowned in the Channel, and she spent the war nursing the wounded in the Royal Free Hospital. In the first half of this book, Lessing imagines the lives her parents might have made for themselves had there been no war, a story that has them meeting at a village cricket match as children but leading separate lives. This is followed by a piercing examination of their lives as they actually came to be in the shadow of that war, their move to Rhodesia, a damaged couple hulking over Lessing’s childhood in a strange land. ‘Here I still am,’ says Doris Lessing, ‘trying to get out from under that monstrous legacy, trying to get free.’
