Описание:

Five Sorcerers. One purpose. One chance.

​And One Determined, Fire-Bending Young Woman with a Warrior Heart,

Reluctant to be Distracted by Love . . .

Brother and sister Heng and Ember, benders of air and fire, must travel across continents and realms to find their Mystic cluster before the night of the Upasārjanā. Only then, when the planets align can they lift the veil of illusion that has trapped human consciousness since the Shadows of Sky People took control of their minds centuries ago.

But this is not their first attempt.

Lifetime after lifetime the Five Sorcerers have re-incarnated to complete their purpose. And lifetime after lifetime, they have failed. - Murdered by Black Mage's determined to defend the veil. With each new birth, the Sorcerers forget all that's come before, only to return with the same unfinished business.

In this lifetime, they must all awaken to the memories, trials and deaths of every life past, and re-integrate with the power of the element they each embody. As Earth's last true light-bearers, humanity's freedom lies upon them, and all of nature has conspired to help them.

They're so close.

But another force greater than anything they could have foreseen arises, mother of all Shadows.

​Will this be the end, or yet another cycle of life and death?

FROM THE PUBLISHER

She Who Rose From Ashes is a fast-paced and unpredictable Fantasy Adventure inspired by Eastern Mysticism and Timeless Wisdom from Ancient Cultures, about a Cluster of Misfits with Ancient Powers from across the globe, who have cycled through multiple Reincarnations with the seemingly impossible Quest to Lift Humanity out of an age of self-inflicted destruction.

At its heart, it's a young woman's Awakening of Consciousness, and a story of Camaraderie, speaking to our Power as humans to Transform Darkness into Light when united in Love over Fear.

... And it's a Slow-Burn Love Story.

★★★★★ "Gripping. Powerful. Filled with Eastern Wisdom." - Goodreads Review

★★★★★ "I was hooked from the first page... No, the first sentence. And did not want to put it down until the last.

It is not only an enchanting fantasy filled with elemental magic and layered, multicultural characters who feel dynamic and real, it is also action-packed and full of mystery and suspense. I would almost label it 'Dark Fantasy', but while the cluster have questionable and morally grey pasts, they are driven by the purest of Light, and over their journey of transformation, become embodiments of Light itself...." - Goodreads Review

Описание: Working as a stripper is anything but easy. You're often treated like a living blow-up doll and a therapist simultaneously. It's a life that many judge easily ... until you know more. Sita Kaylin, a California-based veteran in the sex industry, has lived the pitfalls of being naked in front of strangers and the absurdities that arise when you fake intimacy for a living. She left home when she was sixteen, worked hard at several jobs and eventually started college after dropping out of high school. There, a roommate turned her on to stripping, revealing a way out of the crushing financial pressures she felt and her struggles as a pre-law student with very little time or energy to study. She had no idea how wild her journey would become and what a large part of her life it would be. Sita's stories take shape through an often altered, occasionally sarcastic, sometimes illegal and frequently funny magnifying glass she holds up to not just the sex industry, but also to human needs and desires, modern relationships, mental health, personal independence. Anything But a Wasted Life is the memoir of an unorthodox life about a woman who has rarely said 'no' to life.

Описание:

Seeing into Screens: Eye Tracking and the Moving Image is the first dedicated anthology that explores vision and perception as it materializes as viewers watch screen content. While nearly all moving image research either 'imagines' how its audience responds to the screen, or focuses upon external responses, this collection utilizes the data produced from eye tracking technology to assess seeing and knowing, gazing and perceiving.

The editors divide their collection into the following four sections: eye tracking performance, which addresses the ways viewers respond to screen genre, actor and star, auteur, and cinematography; eye tracking aesthetics which explores the way viewers gaze upon colour, light, movement, and space; eye tracking inscription, which examines the way the viewer responds to subtitles, translation, and written information found in the screen world; and eye tracking augmentation which examines the role of simulation, mediation, and technological intervention in the way viewers engage with screen content. At a time when the nature of viewing the screen is extending and diversifying across different platforms and exhibitions, Seeing into Screens is a timely exploration of how viewers watch the screen.

Описание:

When Ren moves into his new home, he didn't expect it to come with roommates. Two handsome roommates, to be precise. Too bad they're ghosts.

The fact that they're dead doesn't stop them from running their fingers through Ren 's hair or tackling him onto the bed. It's not long before things escalate and Ren finds himself with two ghost lovers that treat him better than any living partner ever has.

However, they can't eat, can't go far from the house where they died, and their fingers feel like icicles against Ren 's skin. The longer Ren is with them, the more he can sense them, but nothing can reduce the chill of their bodies against his. Still, it might be worth the hypothermia.

Описание: A moment of kindness in a sea of unfamiliarity... A long, hard day at work... A lively party... A nostalgic lullaby...

The story begins in Nigeria where the character of Dele plays a last game of football with his friends and says goodbye to his son Chidi, telling him he will send for him. He then embarks on a voyage where he meets strangers along the way carrying their own stories of upheaval, struggle and hope - sharing his dream to make their home in a new city and be joined by their families. Dele's journey melds with the present day. In an inner-city hostel, Dele is an old man being looked after by Tian Mey, his carer. He reflects the past and his journey to where he is now and his story intertwines with the other migrants, both in his memories of the journey and the present-day reality of the hostel.

Based on the illustrated novel by Oscar winner Shaun Tan, one man's tale echoes the many 'arrivals' happening around us all the time. This epic migration story unfolds through an extraordinary weaving together of theatre, circus and music. The Arrival tells the age-old story of immigration that is universal across peoples of diverse histories, countries and cultures.
