She was inspired to write this series when her parents became ill and writing became a coping mechanism. Can Lane save Renata from the evil vampire, or will her blood be splattered on Lane's hands? Wynter Wilkins grew up in a very small town in south central Kentucky and attended college at the University of Kentucky. They fall in love and vow to be together, but REnata's fiancée has other plans in store for the couple. Hoping to seek divine help, Renata meets Lord Lane Deluca. Renata's adopted father arranges for her to marry a fellow vampire who holds tight reins on Renata and demands she give up her religion and practicing witchcraft. Kidnapped and adopted at birth by an evil vampire coven, Renata is forced into a cruel and corrupt life. Lady Renata LeSabitine is a mortal witch who comes from a long lineage of Gypsies. Had a great time AND managed to finish what will be my very first mainline sword and sorcery book, which I am putting out under a pen name. I think maybe it's just because they like the way I mix drinks. Just got back from Kentucky wherein I was hosted by the ever gracious folks over at Shadow Alley Press, who - for reasons of their own - always invite me to their yearly do. With time running out and her life on the line, Michael is left with one option: Marry her. That’s crazy talk, Michael!” Clearly, the topic frightens her. But every attempt he makes to tell her the truth is met with extreme hostility. Only one problem: She must become his queen first. With a global uprising about to explode, Michael must give her the protection of his army. (She is, after all, his biggest weakness.) (Mystery!) Especially because a civil war is brewing, and being king makes his librarian a mark for his enemies. To where? He doesn’t know, but if he wants his life back, he’ll have to find out. In reality, Michael is an ancient deadly vampire, an ex-assassin, and is currently the de facto king of his kind ever since their ruling party disappeared. For starters, he works in a library, is in love with Miriam, his hot nerdy human boss who has no clue what he is, and he looks like a college student. Michael Vanderhorst is not your usual vampire. But why not read them all because…fun!)įALLING IN LOVE WITH A LIBRARIAN JUST CAN’T GET MORE AWKWARD. From New York Times Bestseller Mimi Jean Pamfiloff comes an uncomfortably hilarious Mystery with a heaping help of sexual frustration, THE LIBRARIAN’S VAMPIRE ASSISTANT, Book Three. The stop motion environments utilised are based on the style used for the Protect and Survive public information films. The characters of Jim and Hilda Bloggs are hand-drawn, as well as the area outside of the Bloggs' house, but their home and most of the objects in it are real objects that seldom move but are animated with stop motion when they do. When the Wind Blows is a hybrid of traditional and stop-motion animation. A subsequent graphic novel by Briggs, Ethel and Ernest (1998), makes it clear that Briggs based the protagonist couple in When the Wind Blows on his own parents. It was distributed by Recorded Releasing in the UK, and by Kings Road Entertainment in the United States. The film was Briggs' second collaboration with TVC, after their efforts with a special based on another work of his, The Snowman, in 1982. The film recounts a rural English couple's attempt to survive a nearby nuclear attack and maintain a sense of normality in the subsequent fallout and nuclear winter. The film stars the voices of John Mills and Peggy Ashcroft as the two main characters and was scored by Roger Waters. When the Wind Blows is a 1986 British animated disaster film directed by Jimmy Murakami based on Raymond Briggs' comic book or graphic novel of the same name. “A young boy might be swallowed up in all this vastness, in the unrelenting space that stretched in all directions, in the horizons that yoked even the sun down to heel.”Īs the wagons, filled with old people, children and babies, roll onwards, Katsu imparts a sense of urgency: winter is coming, mountains lie ahead, and the food is running out. Her descriptions of the land are movingly beautiful, but there is danger even here, as we learn that a child has vanished. She then leaps back in time, as the long wagon train makes its way across the vast empty spaces of the American prairie. They find nothing but “a scattering of teeth”, and “what looked like a human vertebra, cleaned of skin”. Katsu opens her novel as a rescue team arrive at an abandoned cabin the summer after George Donner’s party set off. In Alma Katsu’s The Hunger (Bantam, £14.99), a hint of the supernatural is added to the proceedings to create an absorbing, menacing thriller that had me digging into the history behind this tale as soon as I’d read the last page. T he true-life story of the Donner party, American pioneers who set out for California in 1846 but took a poorly advised shortcut through the mountains and ended up snowed in for the winter, with survivors reportedly resorting to cannibalism, is terrifying enough on its own. By contrast, the production, sale, and consumption are legal in the nations where its use is traditional of those cultures, including Djibouti, Kenya, Uganda, Ethiopia, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen. It is a specifically controlled substance in some countries including Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States. In many countries, khat might not be a specifically controlled substance but may nevertheless be illegal under more general laws. The World Health Organization (WHO) classified it in 1980 as a drug of abuse that can produce psychological dependence, although the WHO does not consider khat addiction to be a serious problem. Among communities from the areas where the plant is native, khat chewing has a history as a social custom dating back thousands of years analogous to the use of coca leaves in South America and betel nut in Asia. Khat contains the alkaloid cathinone, a stimulant, which is said to cause excitement, loss of appetite, and euphoria. Khat or qat ( Amharic: ጫት ch’at Oromo: Jimaa, Somali: qaad, khaad, khat or chat, Arabic: القات al-qāt) is a flowering plant native to eastern and southern Africa. Without proper rendering support, you may see question marks, boxes, or other symbols instead of Ethiopic characters. You'll devour it." - Kevin Hearne, New York Times bestselling author of Ink & Sigil "An electrically brisk science fantasy adventure filled with the warmth of found family, lively humor, and high adventure. Hunt's debut is riveting, edge-of-your seat thrills, with plenty of oh-shit and oh-no-look-out moments, but it also examines how people try to be better after making mistakes they regret-and how some are eager to simply make more mistakes. "I read this six-hundred page beast in a single sitting because I couldn't put it down. In the bowels of the derelict ship, surrounded by horrors and dead men, Sean slowly uncovers the truth of what happened on the ship, in its final days. The Ministers, mysterious undying aliens that have ruled over humanity for centuries, want the data - as does The Republic, humanity's last free government. And he's not the only one looking for the derelict ship. Data connected to the Philosopher's Stone experiments, into unlocking the secrets of immortality. t Sean Wren is made an offer he knows he can't refuse: life in prison, "voluntary" military service - or salvaging data in a long-dead language from an abandoned ship filled with traps and monsters, just days before it's destroyed in a supernova. But there are secrets there, terrible secrets that would change the fate of humanity, and eventually someone will come looking. Far off the edge of human existence, beside a dying star lies a nameless ship abandoned and hidden, lost for a millennium. The Eumenides: First Stasimon (Lines 143-178).
