True Heart by Frank Altobelli (44 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

She would have given anything to be like the other Volsung girls; tall and fair. Her nickname, "Mouse" said it all. She was small and dark-haired, but the name did not tell of the scar on her cheek that seemed to disqualify her as a bride. Nor did it hint she was the best archer in the valley, and the only one not afraid to enter the dread Holberth Forest, haunt of shades and the demon, Az-Aziel. Mouse never told how she once saw the demon or that the trees spoke to her. For these things matter little; she was a girl. Courage and weapon skill did not figure in a man's choice of a wife. Certainly not in the case of Brandt, the Headman's handsome son and the boy she saw in her dreams. Her chance comes, when Brandt unexpectedly asks her to take him hunting in the Holbreth. But the day does not end as she hoped, or expected. Mouse becomes caught up in the perilous events of the wide world outside her sheltered valley when she and Brandt meet Orlean, Captain of the Guard, Reslou, Duke of ...

It began six thousand years ago, before the birth of the Akkadian Empire, with a pair of young lovers. Destinies entwined around a first, pure love, a tragic ending, and a promise. "I want you to promise me a life," she whispered so softly he barely heard her. She slowly sat up and searched the gloom of the hut warily. "Akhila!" Akintunde hissed quietly, glancing about fearfully. It was strictly taboo to speak of future lives and a well-known harbinger of ill luck. If an attentive god should hear, whether good or evil, they might strike you dead so that you could quickly begin the new life you so coveted. Akhila flinched but quickly regained her resolve. "I'm afraid Tunde," she admitted and then leaned closer and lowered her voice. "The gods could all be gone... or dead. One life... just one full life... promise."

Printing and Prophecy: Prognostication and Media Change 1450-1550 examines prognostic traditions and late medieval prophetic texts in the first century of printing and their effect on the new medium of print. The many prophetic and prognostic works that followed Europe's earliest known printed book---not the Gutenberg Bible, but the Sibyl's Prophecy, printed by Gutenberg two years earlier and known today only from a single page---over the next century were perennial best sellers for many printers, and they provide the modern observer with a unique way to study the history and inner workings of the print medium. The very popularity of these works, often published as affordable booklets, raised fears of social unrest. Printers therefore had to meet customer demand while at the same time channeling readers' reactions along approved paths. Authors were packaged---and packaged themselves---in word and image to respond to the tension, while leading figures of early modern culture such as ...
