Описание: Four thousand years in the future, the Republic of Earth is at war with the oppressive Yajiran Empire. Meanwhile, on a primitive world, a half-human/half-Yajiran girl named Avala learns that her people's beliefs are lies created by the Yajirans to keep them in a primitive state, so they can rule over them. While working with the Republic of Earth's intelligence service in a collaborative effort to free her planet from its alien overlords, she discovers she has the same psychic and body-swapping powers that the elite Yajirans, the Yajixa, possess. In the process of learning how to master these powers, she awakens a long-lost precursor race from her planet called the Echarikith, who have magical god-like powers. The Echarikith offer to help Avala in her quest to free her people, in exchange for her help in freeing them from being enslaved in the Yajixa's mindscapes. This is the beginning of Avala's lifelong journey to become one of the spirits of the mindscapes....

Описание: Dominique Renda and Blake Horsley's Midnight Daydreams invites the reader on a journey through breathtaking and heartfelt landscapes of lives both recognizable and unforeseen. The authors' candid poetic portraits offer compelling characters, and represent a deep slice of life, of crystallizing moments, realizations, and dreams lost and found. Witty, heartbreaking, and inspiring, these poems affirm our humanity and rouse our spirit. Tales of a mother's feelings for her children, undying and impossible to suppress, a son's independent voice, a spry woman's inquisitive perspective on time, an exhausted man's effort to reclaim it, veterans of war and adjustments, explorations of values and redemption, and the insight and passion of a creative life. Dominique Renda and Blake Horsley engage the reader in a conscious exploration of characters and poetic stories that bring us home. Excerpt from "Seated," in Midnight Daydreams, by Dominique Renda: "...'This is it, ' you say to me, and the rustic room falls away, and the sounds cease to carry, the patrons change to shadows, and the light shines on truth, the aged wood walls listen while sweet molasses steam pulls back in, and I am old, old in a moment, framed in time and stuck to the leather bench marking the day I sat down to say goodbye to you. And in quiet mind, I wonder. How does time trade passion for passage, and the journey for a mere view? The heavy doors open, a couple enters to place their order, a family exits with a bag of what's left. 'History creates expectation, ' you say to me, your voluntary mother offering involuntary farewell, 'and expectation makes it so.'" Editorial Reviews Review "Transportive poetry. A moving collection. Truth and wonder artistically expressed in each character's authentic voice." -Neal Menschel, Poet, Photojournalist "A certain shared perspective...each poem revealing both something about the subject as an individual and often as a part of a family, unique, yet related." -Stephanie Newsom, Poet, Composer, Therapist About the Authors As poet, author, and fine art photographer, Dominique Renda's distinctive written and visual images capture the purity and presence of the human condition.
