Book excerpt: In a realm where a domineering priest once controlled his every move, Prince Karpenmor now stands free, ready to redefine his purpose and identity. As he assumes control of his nation, he's compelled to confront the shadows of his past. His quest for knowledge leads him to a discovery about a lost city and an unexpected desire for revenge. Unrestrained and desperate to know more about his mother, Karpenmor closes in on the deceptions his Regent has maintained for decades, unwittingly threatening his own position. On Dhartan the Jesters are confronted with changes that force radical action from Mother Folly as they try to keep pace. While Lani’s unique skills offer them assistance, a selfish decision by Odajeen puts everything at risk. More amulets break free from the fragile barrier, causing friction amongst realms and emboldening their enemy. Limited in number, the members of the court must become more than entertainers and hidden spies. Now hunting the objects that threaten the source of their power, each of them must bring their unique capabilities to the fore in order to avoid the deadly danger confronting them. In the wake of this shift, even The Eyes can no longer afford to stay hidden on their island, forcing them to send forth more of their kind into the world.

Book excerpt: No one knows the past, not even the secret society of Jesters who covertly maintain stability in Dharatan. All recent memory begins after a now-forgotten battle that almost destroyed their world. An amulet, linked to the very cause of the war, surfaces after 800 years. One of the most experienced Jesters steals it before it can be delivered to an unknown enemy. In an isolated cavern, outside the small northern city of Barnen, the Jester lies dying. Lani, a young woman seeking shelter away from trouble in the city, stumbles on him in his final moments. Now in possession of the amulet, and hunted by assassins sent to retrieve the jewel, Lani is driven away from the only place she's ever lived and becomes entangled in events outside of her control. More alone than ever and unsure who is friend or foe, she finds herself bound to this Jester's world in ways she could never have imagined. When she is told she is part of a bigger fate, her journey becomes a matter of life and death, as she seeks to unravel the truth.

Book Synopsis The Spire by : William Golding

Download or read book The Spire written by William Golding. This book was released on 2013-11-05. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Succumb to one churchman's apocalyptic vision in this prophetic tale by the radical Nobel Laureate and author of Lord of the Flies, William Golding (recorded by Benedict Cumberbatch as an audiobook). There were three sorts of people. Those who ran, those who stayed, and those who were built in. Dean Jocelin has a vision: that God has chosen him to erect a great spire. His master builder fearfully advises against it, for the old cathedral was miraculously built without foundations. But Jocelin is obsessed with fashioning his prayer in stone. As his halo of hair grows wilder and his dark angel darker, the spire rises octagon upon octagon, pinnacle by pinnacle, watched over by the gargoyles - until the stone pillars shriek, the earth beneath creeps, and the spire's shadow falls like an axe on the medieval world below ... 'Astounding ... So recklessly beautiful, so sad and so strange ... Holds such a place in my soul that it's more or less a sacred text.' Sarah Perry 'A kind of miracle ... Genius.' Guardian ' Quite simply, a marvel.' NYRB ' Superb ... A classic.' Rebecca West 'A master fabulist .. An iconoclast.' John Fowles 'A visionary ... His masterwork [of] faith, folly and desperate desire ... Golding at his best.' Benjamin Myers
