A world where humans are exterminated. A land where any contact with them is a death sentence is surely the worst place to wake up... especially if it is not your world. Now fanaticism is spreading and the gods have been eclipsed by the Church of Kallah. Her hosts are everywhere. Her armies control everything. An ancient litany hides mysteries that others have tried to solve. Among its verses seems to lie an ancient oracle. Perhaps a warning, perhaps a solution. Nothing is as it seems. The Keeper of Knowledge craves the answers, but the Cult of Kallah has made powerful allies and is pursuing them as well. It was said that no one could change the course of history... but history has changed... and this is only the beginning Immerse yourself in the vast universe of J. Vilches. Bloody characters, epic in its purest form, gripping lyricism and a ferocious rhythm in the service of one of the most promising epic sagas written in Spanish. You won't read anything like it for a long time. This is the story that hundreds of fans in Spain have fallen in love with, now in English. The Jade Oracle Saga is the English translation-adaptation of the epic saga proposed by the Spanish writer J. Vilches "La Flor de Jade". A work that combines elements of the old school with the powerful and rich prose of its author. A long and profound saga that will leave no one indifferent. The Jade Oracle Saga is not just a translation of the original work, it has been designed for an English-speaking audience, with scenes and dialogues altered, characters adapted and a host of changes and adaptations made to give the English reader the same impact as the original in Spanish. The author and the translator have worked side by side to give this work a special personality that has managed to attract the attention of more than half a million readers in Spanish on the other side of the world.

The day I turned nineteen, I expected to gain what little freedom I could within the restrictions of my bank account and the hallucinations that had haunted me for the last six years. I expected to drive away from a life that had been dictated by the tragedy of others and shaped by the care of strangers. I expected to be alone. Actually, I relished the idea of being alone. Instead, I found fear I thought I’d overcome. Uncertainty I thought I’d painstakingly planned away. And terror that was more real than anything I’d ever hallucinated before. I’d seen terrible, fantastical, and utterly impossible things … but not love. Not until I saw him. -------------------- This paranormal romance/urban fantasy is the first book in the Oracle Series by author Meghan Ciana Doidge. Author’s note: The ideal reading order of I See Me (Oracle 1) is between Dowser 3 and 4, but it's not actually necessary to read the Dowser Series before reading the Oracle Series.

On the island of Kekon, the Kaul family is locked in a violent feud for control of the capital city and the supply of magical jade that endows trained Green Bone warriors with supernatural powers they alone have possessed for hundreds of years. Beyond Kekon's borders, war is brewing. Powerful foreign governments and mercenary criminal kingpins alike turn their eyes on the island nation. Jade, Kekon's most prized resource, could make them rich - or give them the edge they'd need to topple their rivals. Faced with threats on all sides, the Kaul family is forced to form new and dangerous alliances, confront enemies in the darkest streets and the tallest office towers, and put honor aside in order to do whatever it takes to ensure their own survival - and that of all the Green Bones of Kekon. Jade War is the second book of the Green Bone Saga, an epic trilogy about family, honour and those who live and die by the ancient laws of blood and jade.

The Book in Society: An Introduction to Print Culture examines the origins and development of one of the most important inventions in human history. Books can inform, entertain, inspire, irritate, liberate, or challenge readers, and their forms can be tangible and traditional, like a printed, casebound volume, or virtual and transitory, like a screen-page of a cell-phone novel. Written in clear, non-specialist prose, The Book in Society first provides an overview of the rise of the book and of the modern publishing and bookselling industries. It explores the evolution of written texts from early forms to contemporary formats, the interrelationship between literacy and technology, and the prospects for the book in the twenty-first century. The second half of the book is based on historian Robert Darnton’s concept of a book publishing “communication circuit.” It examines how books migrate from the minds of authors to the minds of readers, exploring such topics as the rise of the modern notion of the author, the role of states and others in promoting or restricting the circulation of books, various modes of reproducing and circulating texts, and how readers’ responses help shape the form and content of the books available to them. Feature boxes highlighting key texts, individuals, and developments in the history of the book, carefully selected illustrations, and a glossary all help bring the history of the book to life.
