Book Synopsis Sister Light, Sister Dark by : Jane Yolen

Download or read book Sister Light, Sister Dark written by Jane Yolen. This book was released on 2016-04-05. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A warrior woman and her dark twin are destined to remake the world in this “powerful” tale, the first in a trilogy by a World Fantasy Award winner (Newsweek). Legend foretold the child named Jenna, who was three-times orphaned before she could crawl, a fate that would leave her in the hands of women who worshipped the benevolent goddess Great Alta. In this world without men, Jenna comes of age, learning quickly the skills of close combat. But her most powerful gift lies elsewhere: a mirror sister who emerges only in the darkness—a twin named Skada—and shares the soul of the young, white-haired warrior who might well be the goddess reborn. But if Jenna is, in truth, the one whose coming is awaited, there is cause for great alarm among those who rule the Dales, for the prophecy speaks of upheaval and change, and a devastating end of all things. An incomparable world-builder and one of America’s premier fantasists, the remarkable Jane Yolen begins a three-part saga as inventive, intelligent, and exciting as anything that has ever been produced in the literature of the fantastic. Brilliantly contrasting the “true” story of Jenna with the later myths, poetry, and so-called scholarship that her coming engendered, Yolen creates a culture as richly imagined as those found in the acclaimed novels of Ursula K. Le Guin. A truly magnificent work, Sister Light, Sister Dark takes fantasy fiction to wondrous places it has never gone before.

Book Synopsis Sister of Darkness by : R. H. Stavis

Download or read book Sister of Darkness written by R. H. Stavis. This book was released on 2018-02-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One woman alone has the power to destroy our demons We may not be able to see them, but they’re always there. Smoke and shadows, ghoulish features or lifelike forms, there are the demons, or what Rachel Stavis calls “entities,” that float around us, or even attach themselves to our bodies, feeding off our fears and our negative energy. As the world’s only nondenominational exorcist, Rachel has found herself at the crux of the spiritual crossroads of thousands of clients—all of whom she’s been able to save by ridding them of their spiritual baggage, and getting at the root causes of their low frequency at the same time. Stavis realized her gift as young child, but for years she pushed it away, wishing for it to disappear as her mother dismissed it as a call for attention, the lies of a schoolgirl. After years of denying her gift for communicating with the spirit world, she fearlessly turned what she once regarded as a curse into a blessing to help those in need. Stavis has cleansed thousands of tormented people, from small children to musicians, politicians, and everyone in between, quietly performing her work in obscurity, until now. In Sister of Darkness, Rachel Stavis takes us on a journey into an unseen world, describes the diverse range of entities that surround us, the Spirit Guides and Ancient Ancestors that come to her aid to reveal the root causes of your pain, and what you can do to protect yourself from creating a hospitable environment. A unique look at demonology removed from religious dogma, Sister of Darkness is the true story of Rachel’s journey to becoming an exorcist. Chronicling some of her most extreme and interesting cleansings, the hows and the whys of what she does, and stories of danger and of triumph, Stavis creates a world that is at times frightening, eye-opening, and utterly enthralling.

Book Synopsis Light Sister, Dark Sister by : Lee Walmsley

Download or read book Light Sister, Dark Sister written by Lee Walmsley. This book was released on 1994. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A stunning novel about two sisters, bonded to each other in the net of a family, and how each of them finds a way to break free." "Gray always believed her sister, Bobbie, was the brilliant one; their father, Max, confirmed it. Bobbie was the star, the one whose life was shot through with light. If Bobbie was the light sister, Gray saw herself as the dark one: invisible, depressed, in Bobbie's shadow. Yet Gray is the first to understand that Bobbie's increasingly erratic behavior may be not superior precocity but rather the early signs of mania. Diagnosed as possibly schizophrenic, Bobbie embarks on bizarre and dangerous adventures, while Gray becomes determined to move away from the family and create a new life for herself. Yet even as Gray finds a supportive boyfriend, acceptance at Harvard, a vocation, she feels she is held back by menacing questions that she cannot avoid - questions about sexuality, her sister, her father, herself; questions that threaten to destroy all Gray has worked so hard to create." "Full of real characters, unconventional wisdom about families, and the special insights that can come from pain, Lee Walmsley's first novel is a triumph. Marked by intelligence and humor, Light Sister, Dark Sister is a beautiful book that readers will be unable to forget."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
