Sue Wiggins rated it it was amazing Apr 08, The Fish the Fighters and the Song-Girl : Sacred Band of Stepsons: Sacred Band Tales 2 Writer From the compiletely imagined universe surrounding this city, come mythical stories that heighten the courage of the characters and the ways they face their challenges. The Sacred Band is much more than great Heroic Fantasy: it is classic literature, filled with sub-plots, a fine cast of well- drawn characters, insight and wisdom and recurring themes of honor, faith, brotherhood and love. And for the warfighters themselves, the wars will never end. Black smoke billowing from the barracks, making men and horses cough and wheeze. With great, in-depth characters and vividly drawn imagery, this is a book that cannot be put down. There is a balance and simplicity, a beauty and poignancy in their prose that is not overdone, not overplayed; they write with a deep insight into the human soul, with compassion and humanity. There is no major female character who is an ordinary mortal. The night sky above is clear, sparkling with stars; uncanny — for the storm god of the armies brings rain and wind, thunder and lightning with him, always. Night after night, men die.

LibertyCon 24 July 15-17, 2011 Chattanooga, TN LibertyCon Rules ATTENDEES 17 YEARS OLD AND UNDER: All convention attendees who are 17 years of age or younger must be accompanied by a LEGAL GUARD- IAN. A Legal Guardian is a person 21 years of age or older who will take financial and legal responsibility for the minor and will sign for each minor person for which he/she is responsible. A parent or Legal Guardian must accompany children under 7 years of age at all times. BADGES: Badges must be worn in plain sight above the waist at all times. BATHING: Remember, “If in doubt, take a bath!” Your fellow attendees will appreciate your courteous actions. DRINKING AGE: To get a drinking badge you must produce a VALID military ID or Drivers License with your picture on it to prove that you are at least 21 years of age. Minors caught drinking at LibertyCon will be hung, drawn, quartered, and thrown out of the convention. Also, WE WILL CONTACT YOUR PARENTS AND YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO RETURN TO FUTURE LIBERTYCONS! EJECTION FROM THE CONVENTION: If you are ejected from LibertyCon because of violation of the convention rules or Tennessee State Law, your attendance fees will not be refunded. LOST BADGE POLICY: If you lose your badge at the convention, you will have to purchase another one at the full admission price of $50. We are sorry to take this rough stance, but incidents with people (Not Fans) purchasing a replacement badge to give/sell to a friend at a reduced price only increases the cost of the convention for real fans and this is the only way we can curb it.

{PDF EPUB} the Sacred Band by Janet E. Morris from the EYES OF…JANET E
Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Sacred Band by Janet E. Morris FROM THE EYES OF…JANET E. MORRIS, SOMETHING TO SAY, BECAME A WRITER. Janet E. Morris had something to say…you know, use her mouth, verbiage, volume, lips moving. So, she ended up…taking up the pen and keyboard. “I never meant to become a writer, but I had things I wanted to say, contributions to make to the way my society was evolving,” Morris said. “I wrote my first novel during the 1970s, when women’s roles in society were being questioned. We who had come of age in the 1960s under constant threat of nuclear annihilation were questioning abuses of power. I sold the first draft of the first novel I ever wrote to Perry Knowlton, the first agent I ever met – High Couch of Silistra, Bantam, 1977 – and with him sold many more books until I left writing and editing for twenty years to institutionalize Non-lethality and the nonlethal weapons program.” That’s pretty intense stuff for a woman who has grown into roles as an author and even more so as an editor. She notes her editing work in the Heroes in Hell series. “There I was commissioned and edited two Nebula -nominated and a Hugo Award -winning stories. With Chris Morris, I have recently created Perseid Publishing, a small publishing house specializing in books ‘for the experienced reader.’” Janet Morris works as a writer, author, and editor for Perseid. Despite all the hats she wears, Morris finds time to write and when she does so it is with tremendous verve.
