Through the voice of Bernard Shaawano, an Ojibwe, we hear how his grandfather fashioned the drum after years of mourning his young daughter's death, and how it changes the lives of those whose paths its crosses. However, she stops dead in her tracks when she finds in the collection a rare drum a powerful yet delicate object, made from a massive moose skin stretched across a hollow of cedar, ornamented with symbols she doesn't recognize and dressed in red tassels and a beaded belt and skirt especially since, without touching the instrument, she hears it sound.įrom Faye's discovery, we trace the drum's passage both backward and forward in time, from the reservation on the northern plains to New Hampshire and back. After all, the family descends from an Indian agent who worked on the North Dakota Ojibwe reservation that is home to her mother's family. When a woman named Faye Travers is called upon to appraise the estate of a family in her small New Hampshire town, she isn't surprised to discover a forgotten cache of valuable Native American artifacts. McQuestion’s books share common themes of connection and kindness. Her publishing story has been covered by the Wall Street Journal, Entertainment Weekly, and NPR and she has appeared on ABC’s World News Now and America This Morning. Karen McQuestion is the author of more than a dozen novels that include From a Distant Star and Secrets of the Magic Ring selling more than a million books worldwide. The author delves into Suzette’s mind providing readers with a peek into the thinking of a sociopath that they immediately hate.Īs one reader states, “ The Moonlight Child is a perfect blend of mystery, suspense, and tender moments of love,” that make this novel superb. Take Suzette Fleming, the middle-aged woman controlling the Fleming household. Her characterization is superb giving readers the sense they can actually hear the character’s voices. Thus begins Karen McQuestion’s 328-page novel, The Moonlight Child. From first page to last, McQuestion keeps her readers riveted as she develops a gripping character driven plot. The book includes a map, a glossary of terms, and a pronunciation guide. Hild is a fictionalized telling of the life of Hilda of Whitby, also known as Hild of Streoneshalh, a significant figure in Anglo-Saxon Britain. After Niki settles in, she notices something suspicious going on in the Fleming home, too, and the duo decide to investigate. Hild is a 2013 historical novel and the sixth novel by British author Nicola Griffith. Niki is recommended by Sharon’s daughter, Amy, who thinks they will be good for each other. A few weeks later, eighteen-year-old Niki, a former foster child, moves in with Sharon. But, he will only be there for one night right? or will he be? The man soon discovers that his innocent trip to the outskirts of one village is about to take a very absurd and horrific turn. Jumpei is an entomologist and a school-teacher, a man of science and reason, but nothing could prepare for him for what he is about to experience in his new strange dwelling (which has more complex arrangements that he has ever imagined). The man, Niki Jumpei, misses his last bus home upon finishing his one day trip to the dunes, and some local villagers do him a favour and put him up for one night at one woman’s eccentric dwelling at the bottom of a sand pit (the only exit is by a long rope to reach the surface). In this deceptively simple tale, Kobo Abe paints a quietly disturbing picture of one man who finds himself in an unusual situation when he ventures to look for insects in sand dunes. Throughout the day, the pair have bonded over their relations to super-villains - Prowler for Spider-Man and Vulture for Starling - and what it means to be young heroes. This defeats the Ice Pharaoh, giving the two young heroes the chance to talk privately. Eventually, they even utilize their powers in sync - with Starling flying Miles high above the Pharoah before dropping Miles onto it, allowing him to strike the mummy with a momentum-assisted venom strike. The pair make an effective and adaptable team, fighting back against the Frost Pharaoh's massive icy mummy. Swinging through New York, Miles tries to clear his head - and ends up in an unexpected team-up with a fellow young hero, Starling against his enemy, the Frost Pharaoh. Miles Morales has been going through a lot lately, including seemingly losing his beloved Uncle Aaron in the fight against Ultimatum.

The geographical movement and variety of map locations in the novel give a somewhat ephemeral and temporal quality to Astrid’s existence, reiterating the themes of independence, loneliness, “burgeoning sexuality”, corrupt beauty, desired parental relationships and the perpetual search for a settled home. Fifty completely different worlds and who would see that better than somebody in foster care?”– Janet Fitch I look up and down my block in Silverlake and there is a different universe in every house. We don’t have a unitary society anymore, you know it’s very fragmented. I’ve always been aware of that, and of course she would end up in foster care - and start moving from house to house and really seeing the various components of our society. “I’ve always been concerned with what happens to children in our society when there’s nobody left to take care of them. Fitch herself recognises the defamiliarisation and ultimate fragmentation behind Astrid’s experiences and draws parallels between the separate, inherently broken worlds of each location and the disintegrated nature of contemporary society as a whole. In White Oleander, Janet Fitch has the reader accompany protagonist Astrid on a ‘coming-of-age’ journey in the harsh world of foster care in 20th century America, whereby she accumulates multiple emotional scars from her experiences in each vastly different and distressingly temporal home.

They are “twinborn,” meaning they are able to use both Allomantic and Feruchemical magic. There he worked with his eccentric but effective buddy, Wayne. They are succeeded by wonderful new characters, chief among them Waxillium Ladrian, known as Wax, hereditary Lord of House Ladrian but also, until recently, a lawman in the ungoverned frontier region known as the Roughs. The trilogy’s heroes are now figures of myth and legend, even objects of religious veneration. With The Alloy of Law, Brandon Sanderson surprised readers with a New York Times bestselling spinoff of his Mistborn books, set after the action of the trilogy, in a period corresponding to late 19th-century America.

To this end, Oliver has learned to blend in and to maneuver discreetly. Oliver has hopes to rise politically, perhaps even to become Prime Minister. Oliver is the illegitimate son of Robert’s father, and he struggles to feel that he has a place amongst the aristocracy. The first full-length book, The Duchess War, was about Robert, Oliver’s half brother. The Heiress Effect is the second book in the Brother’s Sinister series (loosely connected stand-alones, with accompanying novellas). Some of her stuff has a huge emotional impact on me ( Unveiled, A Kiss For Midwinter) and some has a medium/high emotional impact on me, but everything she writes leaves me with some level of good book sigh. I’m just going to say it – I love everything Courtney Milan writes. |
