Join an unlikely hero as he watches Moby-Dick sink the Pequod, dodges cannibals on Robinson Crusoe's island, raises a glass with Beowulf, and literally goes to Hell and back. This rollicking adventure begins with a shipwreck on an island where notable characters of literature, history, and folklore coexist — Hamlet and Oedipus, Don Quixote and Doctor Faustus, Becky Sharp and Daniel Boone. From carousing with Robin Hood to crossing swords with the Green Knight and stealing a ride on Huck Finn's raft, our traveler, A. Clarence Shandon, undertakes a whirlwind tour of the classics. And just as the truths of great stories ennoble those who take them to heart, a selfish and cynical drifter is transformed into the gallant knight known as Silverlock. "Here in your hand is the stuff of wonder," declared science-fiction author Poul Anderson, adding, "There are few such glorious romps in all the world's literature, and surely none that surpass this one." Unjustly overlooked for decades, this book lover's book has developed a devoted cult following and richly deserves a wider audience. Whether or not you recognize its scores of literary allusions, you'll savor its wealth of battles, quests, romances, songs, and laughter.

She gave him a look that made him feel warm all over. “How would you like to make a survey of the Road for me? All I need is a clear, objective report based on first-hand observation. All the others I commissioned never lived long enough to give me one.” “What was the matter with them, except being dead?” the professor asked nervously. “They got tangled up because they didn’t know how to look at things. I don’t know why I never thought of turning the job over to a scientist before.” “That’s a mistake voters make, too” he allowed modestly, then loosened his collar. “Er, when do you want me to start?” “Right away wouldn’t be to soon.” “Oh! I couldn’t miss my one-thirty class,” he hedged. “You won’t,” she assured him. “That is unless you get drowned in space, chewed up on land or sea, mobbed, or worse.” She ran a hand reassuringly though his hair. “Just do, for my sake, be careful, pet.” Resistance was useless. She was Venus. He was the merest of mortals. Ten minutes later, in spite of all his best efforts, he found himself being borne off through the sky in a chariot drawn by four eagles!

Creating Healthier Relationships and Greater Well Being Living Now Book Award Winner 2009 Do you love change, creation, simplicity and touch? Learn to work on yourself, others and animals. Robert St. John, the founder of Metamorphosis, noticed that throughout time the primary stress patterns of war, conflict, illness and disharmony have never really changed. He saw that all of our individual and collective problems stem from the same source, with varying degrees of severity. Metamorphosis is a self-healing art and a philosophy on creating greater consciousness within. We use the principle of reflex points to address the unconscious blocks that arrive at conception that create conflict, disease and disharmony in our lives and in our collective experience. As these patterns release we experience greater awareness, better health, genuine relationships and less conflict in life. As we change the world around us changes. This book teaches you the principles and practice of Metamorphosis, so that you can practice within your home. Experience in the healing arts is not necessary. You can work on yourself, others and animals. Robert did a wonderful job of reminding us that we are our own healers, and when we step into that mindset, our bodies and minds are capable of tremendous change - a true Metamorphosis
