Three years after writing The Borrowers in 1952, Mary Norton picks right up where she left off with The Borrowers Afield where our favorite trio are tirelessly trekking from Firbank to Perkin’s Beck in search of the badger’s set, home to the Hendrearies. May and Kate-quite by chance-are about to meet. But worry not for there is one soul who knows exactly what happened to our dear friends and it is that very same person that Mrs. But whatever happened to those poor Clocks? Last time we saw them, they had been smoked out of their comfortable home and left fleeing for their lives-never to be seen or heard from again. Leighton Buzzard, as you might recall, was the country town where Great Aunt Sophy’s house was and it was in that house, as you might remember, where underneath the kitchen floorboards lived the Clocks: Pod, Homily, and Arrietty. May slipped her a letter and said, “This will interest you, Kate, I think.” And indeed it had since that letter had to do with Leighton Buzzard. Since that time, Kate had completely pushed their memory to the farthest corner of her mind until one early spring day when Mrs. May told young Kate the story of the borrowers. Filled with incredible details about medieval life, Ellis’s tale strikingly juxtaposes the contemporary world he passes through on his long hike with the history that peeks out from behind an ancient stone wall or a church. Power, politics, friendship, betrayal, martyrdom, miracles, and stories all had a place on the sixty mile path from London to Canterbury, known as the Pilgrim’s Way.Walking to Canterbury is Jerry Ellis’s moving and fascinating account of his own modern pilgrimage along that famous path. Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales, one of the greatest, most enduring works of English literature, is a bigger-than-life drama based on the experience of the medieval pilgrim. They came seeking healing, penance, or a sign from God. The number of pilgrims visiting his shrine in the Middle Ages was so massive that the stone floor wore thin where they knelt to pray. Before the Archbishop’s blood dried on the Cathedral floor, the miracles began. More than six hundred years ago, the Archbishop of Canterbury was murdered by King Henry II’s knights. An introduction, notes and appendices help to place the works in context for modern readers. This edition of the Revelations contains both the short text, which is mainly an account of the 'showings' themselves and Julian's initial interpretation of their meaning, and the long text, completed some twenty years later, which moves from vision to a daringly speculative theology.Įlizabeth Spearing's translation preserves Julian's directness of expression and the rich complexity of her thought. Written in a vigorous English vernacular, the Revelations are one of the most original works of medieval mysticism and have had a lasting influence on Christian thought. Through these 'showings', Christ's sufferings were revealed to her with extraordinary intensity, but she also received assurance of God's unwavering love for man and his infinite capacity for forgiveness. One of the first woman authors, Julian of Norwich produced in Revelations of Divine Love a remarkable work of revelatory insight, that stands alongside The Cloud of Unknowing and Piers Plowman as a classic of Medieval religious literatureĪfter fervently praying for a greater understanding of Christ's passion, Julian of Norwich, a fourteenth-century anchorite and mystic, experienced a series of divine revelations. He joins a group of mercenaries called the Bloodsworn in order to seek the services of a Seiðr-witch, a woman who can help him find the man who killed her. Varg is an escaped thrall, or slave, who is on a mission to avenge his sister’s death. Orka lives with her beloved husband Thorkel and her son Breca, but when they are torn away from her, Orka vows vengeance and sets off to find her son and kill the person responsible. The narrative shifts among three main characters, each on their own path, but whose journeys eventually come together. Rather it’s a very intricately plotted story with a carefully constructed world, and it’s not the sort of book you breeze through quickly. Gwynne clearly has his craft down to a science, and even though it took me a solid two weeks to finish The Shadow of the Gods, it wasn’t because I was struggling to enjoy it. I’m happy to finally check John Gwynne off my fantasy bucket list! And I have to say, I was very impressed. “We all live with death’s talons in our shoulder, her breath on our neck.” – Elvar The nitty gritty: Complex worldbuilding, intimate characterizations and brutal action make The Shadow of the Gods a must read for epic fantasy fans. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from the Publisher in exchange for an honest review. Beautiful.Īnyway, I’m off to raise the flag. At its core it’s a heartwarming story of overcoming challenges using acceptance and love. I think there’s enough in this for ace and allo folk, those with and without OCD. Rebecca Burgess does a great job of informing and educating without preaching or casting hatred on ignorance. I wish books like this existed when I was a teenager – it would have helped make things much less confusing for sure. It’s a sweet and heartfelt memoir, with fantastic ace and OCD rep that spoke to me on a deep level. A less good point for How To Be Ace is that it doesn’t really give you what it promises. Rebecca Burgess recently saw her graphic novel How To Be Ace published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers, and the picture book she drew, Wiggles, Stomps and Squeezes, published this past week. I’m aro-ace, and I was diagnosed with OCD, so I jumped at this as soon as I saw it. That was definitely a bonus point for this graphic novel. From school to work to relationships, this book offers an unparalleled insight into asexuality. Genre Non-Fiction, Memoir, LGBT+, Graphic Novelīrave, witty and empowering, this graphic memoir follows Rebecca as she navigates her asexual identity and mental health in a world obsessed with sex. Title How to Be Ace: A Memoir of Growing Up Asexual Meanwhile Evie seeks to free herself from her prison and restore magic’s balance. Runa just might be able to use her magic to throw a wrench into the war effort. Unfortunately, Runa’s rescue attempt takes a dark turn, and the threat of war between human nations grows, as does the sea king’s desire for revenge on those who threaten his people’s existence. However, Alia’s twin sister, Runa, asks Evie to help her bring Alia back home: After all, the king is betrothed to another, and for all of Alia’s allure, she doesn’t stand a chance. When Alia, a young mermaid princess, asks for Evie’s help in winning the love of Niklas, young king of a small Danish kingdom, Evie agrees, taking Alia’s voice as payment. It’s 1914, 50 years since human witch Evie became a tentacled sea witch, anchored to an underwater lair by a powerful sea king. A besotted mermaid surfaces to claim the object of her affection, with tragic results. In 2014, a fifth installment of the series, Amarillo, was released in various translations. The publication of this 184-page collection also coincided with the European release of the series' fourth installment, L'Enfer, Le silence (literally Hell, Silence), in September 2010. In 2010, Dark Horse Comics published all three translated volumes as one volume. An English translation of the third volume was delayed due to the bankruptcy of its North American publisher, iBooks.
