City of Wind

Dangerous intrigues and mysterious powers ensnare Dara and Siv in the brutal city of Pendark. Bound to her agreement with Wyla by a magical shackle, Dara helps her study the link between Fire and Watermight. She'll learn more than she bargained for from the cunning Waterworker - if the lessons don't kill her first. Meanwhile, Siv gathers allies and gold to rescue his sister and his kingdom. He can't do it without Dara, and Wyla won't let her go without a fight. Siv isn't letting a little thing like a powerful magic wielder stop him from saving the woman he loves. As the armies of Soole ravage her grandfather's kingdom of Trure, Princess Selivia flees to a distant city full of mysteries. She discovers unexpected troubles in the City of Wind - and a secret that could change everything. When violence erupts in Pendark and beyond, will any of them be powerful enough to withstand the storm?

When the world is torn apart by magical violence, only a Wielder can save it. As the Lantern Maker terrorizes the continent with his Fireworker army, Dara struggles to master her new powers in order to stop him. She doesn't know whether she can bring herself to destroy her father, but she's running out of alternatives - and the fiery devastation is getting worse. She'll have to make a final, terrible choice before the end. Meanwhile, Siv musters a fighting force to retake his kingdom. His sister Selivia offers help in an unexpected form, but his new allies may not be as reliable as he thinks. Siv and Dara are drawn into a battle they didn't anticipate, and trusting the wrong people could cost them the war. Back in Vertigon, Queen Sora learns of a new threat. Even if Siv, Dara, and Selivia make it back to the mountain, they could be too late to save it. As the four of them struggle to overcome the forces of violence, power, and ambition, they are swept toward a final conflict that will determine the fate of every land on the continent. The only way to restore peace is through war - and even that might not be enough.

Fire in History and Mythology

Fire is fascinating isn’t it? We love to watch fires, whether in a campfire, one in a backyard hearth, and in a house fireplace. We love to cook in it, use it to purify things, or even produce weapons. Building fires is also a lot of fun. What a rush to start a fire from sticks and fire starters that you put together then watch it burn. And what about cooking “s’mores” as a dessert with your friends of family? There are also lots of methods to start a fire. Fires also protect us from wild animals. Even the largest predator doesn’t want to go near a fire. They are scared of it—and for good reason. There are also many legends of fire beings from the fire breathing dragon to the Phoenix which burns to death and is reborn out of the ashes. Fires have also destroyed many cities in history as well as wild fires which can destroy huge areas of land and the properties on it. These fires led to the development of fire departments. Cooking was first done on fires and is still done on many fires today. Thousands of years of recipes were all developed over open fires. There is also poetry written about fire. I’ve included some near the end of the book. Man’s climb from animals to modern humans is closely related to the usage of fire. We would probably not have survived through history without the command of fire.

Een Zee Van Schilden (Boek #10 In De Tovenaarsring)

In EEN ZEE VAN SCHILDEN (BOEK #10 IN DE TOVENAARSRING), bevalt Gwendolyn van haar kind. Nu Gwendolyn en Thor een kind hebben, veranderen hun levens voorgoed; evenals het lot van de Ring. Thor heeft geen keus. Hij moet zijn vrouw en kind achterlaten en op een gevaarlijke zoektocht gaan, waarbij het lot van de Ring op het spel staat. Maar voor hij vertrekt, wordt Thor met Gwendolyn verenigd in het grootste huwelijk in de geschiedenis van de MacGils, moet hij helpen op de Krijgsmacht opnieuw op te bouwen, traint hij met Argon, en krijgt hij de eer waar hij altijd van heeft gedroomd: hij wordt ingewijd bij de Zilveren en tot Ridder geslagen. Gwendolyn is van slag door de geboorte van haar zoon, het vertrek van haar man en de dood van haar moeder. De hele Ring komt samen voor de koninklijke begrafenis, die haar samenbrengt met haar vervreemde zuster Luanda. Hun laatste confrontatie zal afschuwelijke implicaties hebben. Argons voorspellingen blijven door haar hoofd malen, en Gwendolyn, die voelt dat de Ring in gevaar is, bedenkt een plan om al haar mensen te redden in het geval van een catastrofe. Erec krijgt te horen dat zijn vader ziek is, en moet terug naar huis, naar de Zuidelijke Eilanden; Alistair gaat met hem mee, en de voorbereidingen voor hun bruiloft worden getroffen. Kendrick gaat op zoek naar zijn moeder, en is geschokt wanneer hij ontdekt wie ze is. Elden en O’Connor komen bij thuiskomst voor onverwachte verassingen te staan, terwijl Conven steeds verder verstrikt raakt in zijn depressie. Steffen vindt onverwacht de liefde, terwijl Sandara Kendrick verrast door de Ring te verlaten en terug te keren naar haar thuis in het Rijk. Reece wordt, ondanks zijn naderende huwelijk met Selese, verliefd op zijn nichtje. Wanneer Tirus’ zoons erachter komen, zetten ze een verraderlijk plan in werking. Matus en Srog doen hun best om de orde in de Hoge Eilanden te behouden, maar wanneer Selese vlak voor haar bruiloft de affaire ontdekt, ontstaan er tragische misverstanden. Reece’ passies zorgen ervoor dat er een oorlog in de Hoge Eilanden dreigt uit te breken. Ook aan de McCloud kant van de Hooglanden is de situatie allesbehalve stabiel. Er dreigt een burgeroorlog uit te breken, en Luanda’s roekeloze acties maken het er niet veel beter op. Ondertussen ontdekt Romulus in het Rijk een nieuwe vorm van magie, die het Schild wel eens voorgoed zou kunnen uitschakelen. Hij sluit een deal met duistere machten. Bemoedigd door een kracht die zelfs Argon niet kan tegenhouden, keert Romulus opnieuw terug naar de Ring, vastbesloten om deze te vernietigen. EEN ZEE VAN SCHILDEN is een episch verhaal van vrienden en geliefden, rivalen en minnaars, ridders en draken, intriges en politieke machinaties, van volwassen worden, van gebroken harten, van bedrog, ambitie en verraad. Het is een verhaal van eer en moed, van lotsbestemming en tovenarij. Het is een fantasie die ons meeneemt naar een wereld die we nooit zullen vergeten, en die alle leeftijden zal aanspreken.
