The Gifts of Reading by Robert Macfarlane Pdf

From the acclaimed author of The Old Ways and Landmarks -- an essay on the joy of reading, for anyone who has ever loved a book Every book is a kind of gift to its reader, and the act of giving books is charged with a special emotional resonance. It is a meeting of three minds (the giver, the author, the recipient), an exchange of intellectual and psychological currency, that leaves each participant enriched. Here Robert Macfarlane recounts the story of a book he was given as a young man, and how he managed eventually to return the favour, though never repay the debt. From one of the most lyrical writers of our time comes a perfectly formed gem, a lyrical celebration of the transcendent power and humanity of the given book.

Underland 2 by Maxime J Durand Pdf

In the brutal, mystical realm of Underland, the secrets of the past may hold the key to saving all existence-or finally condemning it to eternal darkness. Now under the tutelage of a pair of dark lords, Valdemar Verney and his partner and bodyguard, Lady Reynard, have grown greatly in skill and power-he in sorcery and summoning, and she in blood and bone swordsmanship. Having faced the knowledge of his dark legacy, Valdemar is still struggling to find his way as well as solve the pan-dimensional mystery that seems to be guiding his destiny. When the Dark Lord Och decides to make a punitive strike against the demented, gore-drenched Derros, both Valdemar and Reynard are put to the test in mind, body, and soul against an enemy far more depraved than any they have faced before: Otto Blutgang, the Derros King, capturer of minds. But even Blutgang has his uses for the summoner. He commands Valdemar to aid him in his ultimate play for power: opening portals from Underland to countless realities where he can rule above any gods. And if Valdemar refuses, Reynard will be the one to pay the price, forever and beyond . . . The second volume of the hit dark-fantasy series-with more than 900,000 views on Royal Road-now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Landmarks by Robert Macfarlane Pdf

SHORTLISTED FOR THE SAMUEL JOHNSON PRIZE 2015 SHORTLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE 2016 Landmarks is Robert Macfarlane's joyous meditation on words, landscape and the relationship between the two. Words are grained into our landscapes, and landscapes are grained into our words. Landmarks is about the power of language to shape our sense of place. It is a field guide to the literature of nature, and a glossary containing thousands of remarkable words used in England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales to describe land, nature and weather. Travelling from Cumbria to the Cairngorms, and exploring the landscapes of Roger Deakin, J. A. Baker, Nan Shepherd and others, Robert Macfarlane shows that language, well used, is a keen way of knowing landscape, and a vital means of coming to love it. Praise for Robert Macfarlane: 'He has a poet's eye and a prose style that will make many a novelist burn with envy' John Banville, Observer "I'll read anything Macfarlane writes" David Mitchell, Independent 'Every movement needs stars. In [Macfarlane] we surely have one, burning brighter with each book.' Telegraph '[Macfarlane] is a godfather of a cultural moment' Sunday Times
