A Study of George Orwell: The Man and His Works
by Christopher Hollis PhD John RoddenAuthor Christopher Hollis knew George Orwell personally during his schooldays at Eton, afterwards in Burma, and at the end of his life. His study of Orwell’s books is therefore illuminated by some anecdotes of reminiscence. However, it is important to note that this book is primarily a study rather than a biography. Hollis examines Orwell’s books in order and traces through them the development of this unmatched literary giant’s thought process. From the experiences described in Down and Out in Paris and London to the points in his life that began driving him toward socialism, A Study of George Orwell is a comprehensive overview of Orwell’s work as it related to his personal life. Hollis guides the reader all the way through Orwell’s oeuvre, including his two most famous books—Animal Farm and 1984—which are, arguably, the greatest literary protests of political power and tyranny ever penned. Portraying Orwell as a fearless champion of the common man and a follower in the footsteps of Jonathan Swift, Hollis offers a compelling review and analysis of Orwell’s work as well as a perspective not found by the average, distant biographer

Jamestown, Alaska
by Frank Turner HollonJamestown, Alaska is the story of Aaron Jennings, a bestselling novelist bored by his life of suburban monotony and increasingly disturbed by the stories of violence in his newspaper, who wakes one morning to find a small red book on his doorstep. There is no title, no author's name on the spine: just the words The Survival Manifesto inscribed on the first page, and an invocation to a chosen few to abandon the society of the incompetent, lazy, and immoral and build a new utopia in the wilds of Alaska. Jennings is invited to the commune to write, or rewrite, the history of the imminent worldwide revolution.Skeptical but insatiably curious, Jennings sets out for Alaska in the company of the seven mysterious members of the Committee, pursued by a sinister figure (his next-door neighbor?) who seems to oppose the Committee's mission. But the human vices have reached Jamestown first, and the foundation of the commune is already faltering. As Jennings becomes entangled with the secrets of Jamestown, falling out of touch with his family and the life he left behind, he grows increasingly paranoid about what kind of game he's stumbled into, and whether anything in Jamestown is as it seems.With spare prose and sharp insight into the fallacies of the human mind, Frank Turner Hollon's Jamestown walks the line between ludicrous and ominous in the style of Karen Russell, Jim Shepard, and Kurt Vonnegut.
Sonhos Dracônicos
by Dusty Lynn Holloway Débora C R de SouzaEm minha sombra você dorme, faminto por minha alma. Em meu coração você vive, alimentado e em paz. Em minha vida você pertence, sempre. O alvorecer rubro da guerra se choca com a maré. Cai o negror. Sombras ganham vida. Eu chamo por você. Vejo você do outro lado do campo de batalha, chamando por mim. Tantos estão entre nós. Viro as costas para a maré; a maré avança, crescendo, estourando, cobrindo. Levanto minha mão e encaro o céu acima. Cai o silêncio. Uma quietude. Lágrimas caem. Líquidas, elas caem pelo meu rosto, minhas bochechas encardidas, em minhas roupas manchadas de sangue. Levanto minha outra mão. Uma explosão de tempo avança, galopando como meu coração enquanto aguardo o golpe final. . . Mas ele nunca vem. Eu congelei o momento no tempo, enquanto a lâmina destinada ao meu coração perfura o dele. Os soluços estrangulam meu peito enquanto encaro o metal, reluzindo vermelho como o sol nascente, despontando de seu peito. Seus olhos estão também congelados, fixados nos meus. Eles não parecem surpresos. Eu caio de joelhos; lágrimas rolam mais intensamente. Ouço sua voz. Um berro, um grito de dor e raiva e desespero e medo atravessando o campo. Eu não me volto. Eu olho direto para frente, para os olhos que estão fixos nos meus enquanto trago ambas as mãos para baixo em um gesto tão cortante quanto a lâmina. Luz explode para fora a partir de mim, disparando através do campo de batalha, consumindo tudo. Eu caio. Ele cai também. Seus olhos falam de coisas que ele não pode dizer. Eles se fecham após um minuto, mas os meus permanecem abertos. Você, então, me alcança. Todos os outros estão prensados ao chão, revolvendo-se na terra encharcada de sangue, mas você chega até mim. Você me vira com a face para cima. Você me recolhe em seus braços. Você chora, mas meus olhos estão secos agora. Meus olhos estão secos. —Vai ficar tudo bem — eu sussurro para você. — Vai ficar
Dragon Ties: Legami di drago (le cronache di ombra e luce)

Dopo esser a stento sfuggita dalle Terre del Fuoco, Auri segue le richieste del padre e intraprende un viaggio nella conoscenza dei Maestri dei Draghi. Una volta arrivata, spera di immergersi negli allenamenti e diventa il fulcro decisivo per la salvezza di Terradin e la sconfitta definitiva di Obsidian e dei suoi Ribelli.

A pezzi dalla perdita, e con Terradin che cresce sempre più nell'oscurità, è costretta a prendere una decisione che avrà eterne ripercussioni. Rimarrà aggrappata alla vecchia Auri? O dimenticherà il suo passato e come la fenice leggendaria, rinascere dalle sue ceneri per risplendere come mai prima?
Lazos de Dragón
by Dusty Lynn Holloway Alexia PolaskyTras apenas haber escapado con vida de las Llanuras de Fuego, Auri hace caso a las súplicas del Rey Dragón y se lanza en busca de la seguridad y el conocimiento de los legendarios Dragones Maestros. Dirigió la mirada a su padre, al otro lado de la habitación. Un rayo de sol brillaba sobre él. Tenía los ojos cerrados y colgaba de la pared con cadenas oscuras y ásperas. Sangre cubría sus sienes, manos y hombros. Gritó cuando comenzó a caminar hacia él. Una sombra oscura se separó de la pared a la izquierda de su padre. Ella patinó hasta detenerse y sintió que Lobo hacía lo mismo a su lado. Respiró pesadamente cuando la sombra cobró vida. Obsidian. Cinco sombras más se desprendieron de la pared. Tenían capas oscuras que cubrían sus rostros para que no pudiera ver su aspecto. Los cinco salieron de las sombras y luego se detuvieron, pero Obsidian siguió avanzando. Sus ojos brillaron de un azul mortal, venenoso. El corazón de ella se convirtió en hielo cuando el fuego de dragón dentro suyo se apagó. Tras apenas haber escapado con vida de las Llanuras de Fuego, Auri hace caso a las súplicas del Rey Dragón y se lanza en busca de la seguridad y el conocimiento de los legendarios Dragones Maestros.

Pero antes de que su viaje realmente haya comenzado, le arrebatan a un ser querido. Aturdida por la pérdida, y con Terradin cada vez más oscuro a su alrededor, se ve obligada a tomar una decisión terrible que tendrá repercusiones duraderas. ¿Se aferrará a lo que alguna vez fue? ¿O regurgirá como el legendario fénix y se levantará de las cenizas para arder más que nunca?

Luce di Drago
by Dusty Lynn Holloway Silvia Dalla Zanna“Suspance, romanticismo, amore, avventura, fantasia, è tutto lì. . . Ti attira e non ti lascia più andare”. Anonimo All’improvviso si ritrovò lontano dal mondo sommerso, in un luogo che esisteva soltanto nel fuoco. La pressione era squisita, le toglieva il respiro e la vita. Il magma eruttava da fontane ruggenti, ricadendole tutto attorno, toccando l’orlo del suo semplice vestito bianco e bruciandolo fino a ridurlo in cenere. Ben presto anche le scarpe che indossava bruciarono, lasciandola solo con la sua pelle pallida. Avanzò con decisione entrando nel più ampio dei fiumi di magma, attraversandolo fino a raggiungerne il centro. Il magma si sollevava proprio sotto di lei, salendo lentamente sulla sua pelle, come se una forza più grande di quella proveniente dal centro della terra lo attirasse. Continuò a salire fino a ricoprirla completamente, poi si raffreddò rapidamente, racchiudendola in una roccia nera e liscia. Non c’era più aria. Né pensiero. Né luce. Solo l’istinto. Una luce bianco dorata fuoriuscì dalla punta delle sue dita penetrando nel magma, rompendo la pietra nera, facendo brillare radiosamente quel fuoco ribollente. Si espanse velocemente attraverso il fiume nel qual si trovava, poi proseguì verso l’esterno, trasformando rapidamente l’intera rete di fiumi, rivoli, cascate e oceani di fuoco, fino a che tutto si accese di quella sua luce bianco dorata. Terzo libro dell'esplosiva serie di Cronache di Luce ed Ombra! Mentre si avvicinano i giorni della battaglia finale, vecchie alleanze si ritrovano, nuove alleanze vengono rafforzate ed il loro mondo di mutevole luce e oscurità si apre alla speranza, mentre il numero dei Luminari e di quelli che seguono il Re Drago Cerralys si infittisce e si fa più forte. Poi all’improvviso accade l’impensabile, Auri scopre un segreto così grande da scuotere tutto il suo mondo. Tutto ciò che è. Prima che arrivi la fine, prima che
