This was a time . . . Before History Before Man knew of the value or meaning Of God First came the Angels . . . It was their world to rule and reign Almost gods themselves In a world That had almost forgotten the . . . Warrior Angel Known as Nathaniel . . . the fourth . . . Arcangel And all the angels were Warriors Elite, the perfect creations of God. Whether they had evolved as far as they were able Man, will never know In their time, Heaven had never known dissention or disobedience until Heaven . . . found that day It was the day that man was created in the image of his Creator, as wellas in the likeness of Angels. Man was born to be. Innocent of all that was created before him, but lesser than the angels, man was granted the protection of his angel brothers as teachers and guides from the moment of man's birth Perhaps it was jealousy that created the events that followed, that sided angel against angel until Lucifer, the greatest of all angels, and once the crest of the Arc himself, led the revolt against the decision of their Creator His vow was to destroy the very heart of man's purity; thereby proving his lesser worth, for no angel shall bow to the wishes of man. Even though Man's spirit was blessed to one day, stand alongside the very throne of all creation and beside His only Son, The Christ. This was the time that shaped Man's fate until the time of Man's birth, when he would be delivered by the Love of Christ Himself. Fore the infant soul of man had been gifted with the very light, essence of the Creator . . . Himself It was a gift, not considered when the angels themselves, were created eons before. However, this was a new time and a new beginning. Man, was blessed to be the inheritor of all creation and considered to be of soul and spirit in rebirth to a new age, in a new world, and more importantly . . . in anew vision, a reflection of the Creator Himself . . . so had begun. Born without the powers of complete knowledge, as his angel brothers, man was still given freedom of will, to choose for himself, his own destiny, and therefore too granted the power to procreate, and grow within himself, to find his own reasons to be.

The story of the missions is a compelling human drama that is a vital piece not only of California history, but also of American history. Indeed, many keys to California's past lie in the stories of the 20 missions that stretch along the state's west coast from San Diego to San Francisco. This vital series is compatible with the mission-based curriculum used in fourth-grade California classrooms. It resonates equally with all social studies programs that explore the defunct notion of colonialism and its controversial role in the history of the United States, and with curricula that seek to explore the interaction of different cultures and the rights and voices of indigenous peoples.

The collections of museums, galleries and online art organisations are increasingly broadening to include more new media art. Because new media is used as a means of documenting, archiving and distributing art, and because new media art might be interactive with its audiences, this highlights the new kinds of relationships that might occur between audiences as viewers, participants, selectors, taggers or taxonomisers. New media art presents many challenges to the curator and collector, but there is very little published analytical material available to help meet those challenges. This book fills that gap. Drawing from the editor's extensive research and the authors' expertise in the field, the book provides clear navigation through a disparate arena. The authors offer examples from a wide geographical reach, including the UK, North America and Asia and integrate the consideration of audience response into all aspects of their work. The book will be essential reading for those studying or practicing in new media, curating or museums and galleries.

Kyen of Avanna is lauded as a hero, but . . . Everyone who meets him immediately doubts it. Shy, skinny, and mortally afraid of women, he keeps to himself by wandering the wilderness. He has to. He’s hiding a dangerous secret—Kade, an ancient being of immense power, lives in secret in Kyen’s head. Kyen’s travels get complicated when a princess named Adeya starts following him. She’s doomed to an arranged marriage, and her only escape is to restore the art of summoning to her kingdom—summoning which involves the very creature Kyen is trying to hide. From the moment they cross paths, Adeya suspects he’s keeping secrets and she’s determined to uncover them. Their fates become entangled when a sinister mage appears. He calls himself the Kingmaster and, wielding a relic of mind-control, he possesses their loved ones and threatens to seize the kingdoms of Ellunon. Now stuck with the princess (and her unwanted suitor), keeping Kade hidden becomes increasingly harder for Kyen. One by one, the Kingmaster is targeting everyone they meet. When he levels his aim at Adeya, Kyen must face a heart-wrenching choice: save everyone he loves or surrender Kade to forces bent on destroying the world? The Kingmaster is a classic quest for those who crave tales of adventure, courage, and magic with a hint of romance. It would be enjoyed by readers of YA Adventure Fantasy similar to Redwall, Eragon, or The Ranger’s Apprentice.
