Ken has been waiting for this day for a long time.*** 4 1/2 STARS FROM RT BOOK REVIEWS***Arden Lesstymine (known to everyone as Trouble) likes attention as much as the next girl, but this is getting ridiculous. When an insane stranger is murdered at the inn where she works, Trouble becomes the next Soulbearer for the disembodied god of chaos, Loku. Yes, it comes with the ability to channel the god’s limitless power, but at the cost of her sanity — literally. Now she has a sexy but cynical knight claiming to be her protector, a prince trying to seduce her to his cause (and his bed), and a snarky chaos god who offers a play-by-play commentary on it all, whether she wants to hear it or not. To make matters worse, a necromancer wants to capture the soul of Loku for his own dark purposes, and the only way he can get it is by killing her first. Views: 290

Sapper is pseudonym for Herman Cyril McNeileImmaculate, charming, fearless wanderer, Jim Maitland, has a peculiar code of morals and an unforgettable character. Our enthusiastic narrator, Leyton, meets the legendary Maitland on the Island of Tampico - a flawless jewel in a sapphire sea, with more vice than the slums of a city - and leaps at the chance to accompany this charismatic man on his spontaneous travels.Foreword The first time I heard Jim Maitland's name mentioned was in the bar of a P. and 0. We were two days out of Colombo, going East, and when I confessed my complete ignorance of the man a sort of stupefied silence settled on the company. " You don't know Jim ? " murmured an Assam tea-planter. " I thought everyone knew Jim." " Anyway, if you stay in these parts long you soon will," put in someone else. " And once known-never forgotten." They fell into reminiscences of old times, and I was well content to listen. Ever and anon Mainland's name was mentioned, and gradually my curiosity was aroused. And when one by one they went off to turn in, leaving me alone with the1 tea-planter, I asked him point-blank for further details. He smiled thoughtfully, and took a sip of his whisky and soda. " Ever been in a brawl, Ley ton, with ten men up against you, and only the couch keeping a fellow with a knife in the background from sticking it into your ribs ? Well, that's JimT I.

The man in the purple robe was too old to walk or stand. He was wheeled upon a purple bench into the center of a marvelous room, where unhuman beings whom we shall call "They" had gathered and waited. Because he was such an old man, he commanded a great sum of respect, but he was nervous before Them and spoke with apology, and sometimes with irritation, because he could not understand what They were thinking and it worried him. Yet there was no one left like this old man. There was no one anywhere who was as old -- but that does not matter. Old men are important not for what they have learned, but for whom they have known, and this old man had known Wainer. Therefore he spoke and told Them what he knew, and more that he did not know he was telling. And They, who were not men, sat in silence and the deepest affection, and listened. . . . Views: 289
