The Twilight Lord.......2007-08-27
For those following Bertrice Small's LARA Character this was the 3rd Book - it was very good - just as Books 1 & 2 were - makes you anxious for the 4th Installment. As far as Amazon goes - I ordered the book used - it came in 4 days in PERFECT condition and even with the shipping cost it was equal to a Book Store Price and I didn't have to use $6.00 worth of gas to go get it.
First and last foray..........2007-08-21
Despite the author's well-recognized name and long, award-filled career, I had never actually read one of Ms Small's books. I received The Twilight Lord (World of Hetar, Book 3) as a freebie and decided to give this author a try, even though I'd essentially be starting in the middle of an established series.
Given Ms Small's many, many awards for her historical fiction stories, I'll have to assume that she is truly a wonderful writer. Unfortunately, I only have The Twilight Lord to judge by, and it was not what I would have expected given the author's reputation.
No doubt someone will point out that it's hardly fair to judge Ms Small based on one book, and that one not the first book in a series. I can only point out the following issues do not rely on a book's order in a series:
- The author and editor should have cut out the numerous, numerous repetition and redundancies in the book, especially in those instances where the characters themselves were already aware of X, Y, and Z.
- There were several instances of rape, which, inconceivably, were portrayed for the most part as being pleasurable for the women involved. Not only was this offensive and cavalier, it didn't even serve the purpose of making the villains out to be more villainous.
- Several of the plot points didn't make internal story sense.
- The characterizations of the main characters were unlikable. They were by turns self-centered, cruel, and immature. It was hard to imagine what redeeming characters they had.
- Despite the big "Lara has a Destiny" plot line and the constant avowal of her powers, the only powers you really see her evince is transporting herself from place to place.
- Many of the sex scenes were repetitive and served no real purpose. Sex in a story is great, but only if it furthers the plot. The only sex that furthered the story in this book was the one that involved the prophecy of the Twilight Lord.
Sometimes, when I start a series in the middle, I'm intrigued enough to want to read the entire series and try other books by the same author. Alas, neither is the case here.
Well Done Ms Small.......2007-08-10
Twilight Lord was a great third book of the series of Hectar. The Subtle hints in book two had taken me in a completely different direction. I hope that this is not the last we see of Lara and the world of Hectar
One of the best!.......2007-08-04
I am thoroughly excited with the new way Mrs. Small has taken her writing. She can keep me up all night long with her stories, but this one makes me want a reread!!!! WOW!
The Twilight Lord.......2007-07-30
The Twilight Lord was a very disappointing example of Beatrice Small's normally excellent work. There is all together too much gratuitus sex and erotica that does not help to move the story along. Some of the scenes, even the shocking ones with the "Twilight Lord" are necessary to demonstrate his evil nature, but many of the sex scenes are redundant and only take up space that could be better used to develop the plot. Also, in a long-awaited book that was at first labeled part of a trilogy, the plot is neither tight nor resolved. After reading Beatrice Small for more than 30 years, I expect more of her writing--although I have little regard for the editors of Harliquin!!

Brassai @ dawn.......2007-05-10
Absolutely beautiful photographs that in many cases go beyond the endless cliches that this most wonderful city can't help but spawn. Using a spectacularly fine grained film, in a now eccentric denial of digital format, Berts has produced a magnificent portfolio on Paris. Reminds me of Brassai's celebrated night shots, only these were taken at dawn. Superb printing quality, and prefaced with a delightfully playful essay by Pierre Assouline. Top shelf publishing. An unmissable bargain at Amazon's price.

Not quite what I expected...which isn't a bad thing.......2007-08-24
I had picked up Mortal Danger on a whim. After reading MD I was hooked. I wanted to see what Ms. Wilks came up with next. Her books are very, very detailed but not in that overly heavy descriptive or perhaps I should say repetitive way. You know what I'm talking about the two paragraphs of "It was hot, hot like an August day, hot like the stove top after cooking Top Ramon, hot like..." Yeah, you catch my drift. This isn't how Ms. Wilks writes. I don't find myself scanning paragraphs because at times the story has slowed down and I need to get to an exciting part.
Like I said, I had read MD liked it and went out in search for Blood Lines. I expected a story about Cullen and Cynna. I figured that Rule and Lily would be in it but more as supporting characters. They certainly are in this book! By no means do I want imply they aren't! However, rather than diving into a different characters story I really felt more like I just picked up where I was left off in Mortal Danger, which I really liked! This might be in part due to the "Dear Reader" by Lily at the beginning. In Blood Lines we really do get to learn more about the mysterious Cullen and the strange Cynna...but we aren't left wondering "But what about Lily and Rule!" They are firmly written in as well.
This book wasn't what I expected, but again I found myself really enjoying Ms. Wilks writing. She firmly plants you into her stories and frankly you don't want to leave any time soon.
Sloooow.......2007-08-11
I like this series. I even liked this book. I'd buy more in the series. But, c'mon folks, let's move the plot along a little! Like the other two books in this series, Blood Lines starts out interesting and it really holds your attention till you get to the last quarter of the book. After that, it gets so bogged down that I found myself laying the book aside and doing other things rather than finish it. I bought all three books at the same time and normally it would take me about three or four days to read them, but this series took me months to get through because of that end-of-the-book problem. Since I found this to be consistent from book to book, it must be something in the author's style. The world-verse of this series is pretty interesting though, and worth exploring. Just don't hold your breath on expecting a fast-paced ending.
A great series.......2007-07-23
This is the third book in a series featuring Lily Yu and Rule Turner. Lily is a sensitive, she can sense magic from other people when she touches them but it doesn't affect her. Rule is the prince for the werewolf clan Nokolai. Lily and Rule are blood mates. In this third installment they team up with Cynna, who is a Finder and Cullen, a socerer werewolf, to overcome a master demon. I liked this book better than I did the second in the series, but overall, it is a wonderful series to read.
Great book! Great series!.......2007-06-30
Each book in this series is better then the last! Lily and Rule's story is a must read. Non-stop action, love, lust and wolves, oh my! Eileen Wilks built an incredible world and characters and each book takes you further into that world. You wont be disappointed with Blood Lines. You should read the first two books in the series however because this is not a stand alone book.
fast paced.......2007-06-22
Lots of action. The story flowed well between Lily and Rule and Cullen and Cynna. The four are attempting to solve the problem of so many demons coming through trying to kill the lupi heirs. Most of all, grandmother is hilarious! I love that character!

Book Description
From frosted mountain peaks to the low-lying farmlands of the Fraser Valley, from the Sahara-like sand dunes of Farwell Canyon to the dripping, moss-bedecked rainforests of the Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia is a province of startling contrasts. Its beauty has inspired many photo collections, but none quite like David Nunuk's.
Natural Light is a spectacular, jaw-dropping collection of Nunuk's best photographs of British Columbia in all its moods, accompanied by his often wry observations about the settings and his unorthodox methods of capturing them. In the tradition of Wade Davis, Nunuk writes about his experience hiking into an area, planning a shot and digging in patiently until the light and weather co-operate to make the perfect picture. He becomes intimate with the subtle variants in a landscape over an hour, a day, a month or a minute before he captures the images with his camera. His pictures are composed with a naturalist's eye for scientific detail and an outdoorsman's affection and respect for nature.
From the warm Mediterranean tones of an Okanagan vineyard to the crystalline twinkle of an ice cave, the striking radiance of Natural Light makes this luxuriously produced, oversize coffee-table book the perfect gift for lovers of outdoor photography, naturalists, armchair travellers or anyone who wants to see BC in a dramatic new--and entirely natural--light.
Book Description
Selected as one of USA Today’s 100 Best Spiritual Books of the Century, this astonishing autobiography tells the gripping, heroic story of the early life of Jacques Lusseyran, an inspiring individual who overcame the limitations of physical blindness by attending — literally — to the light within his own mind. Through faith in the connection between vivid inner sight and outer events, he became a leader in the French Resistance and survived the horrors at Buchenwald.
Customer Reviews:
The Power of Positive Thought and the Power of Poetry.......2007-08-24
This is the autobiography of a blind hero of the French Resistance during WWII. Lusseyran lost his eyesight as a young boy through an accident at school, caused by a bully. But instead of sinking helplessly into darkness he gradually developed his other senses to extraordinary capacity.
When seventeen,while interviewing volunteers, willing to join the Resistance, he perceived colors when they answered questions. These colors revealed to him whether they could be trusted or not. Once, however,his friends disagreed with his recommendation. They all were taken prisoner and sent to the Concentration Camp.It was there, that the 18 year old found his second calling: Poetry. Reciting poetry by heart, he assembled the prisoners daily. The imagery had life-sustaining quality for them and a moment of renewal to all that participated. His experiences and observations there, later led him to choose to study philosophy and literature at the Sorbonne.He lectured at the various American universities until his death.
recommended additional reading by Lusseyran: "Against the Pollution of the I"
A classic.......2006-10-10
A classic study in overcoming adversity and finding hope in hopeless situations. If it were a work of fiction, we would doubt the author's credebility - but this is not fiction, this is the real life of an ordinary individual made extraordinary by the light of his saviour. It is an inspirational book and adventure action novel all in one. Rarely do we find a hero so authentic and humble as Mr. Lusseyran - and only he could share the story because only he has access to that light so necessary for the complete telling.
A light not his own.......2005-09-30
I enjoyed Lusseyran's story as a blind person who came up with a way to cope without sight. I can't imagine his life if he had remained sighted as he used his blindness to such advantage.
My favorite part is the history teachers role in the resistance. True education!
light unto the darkness.......2004-06-30
"in 1935 in a lycee in Paris..our work was divided into two equal parts: the world of today and the world of yesterday, the dreams of the ancients and the dreams of the modern man. I can't believe that was a bad thing. At least we were not in danger of falling into absurdity, so common nowadays, of confusing the era of Sputniks and Polaris rockets with the era of Genesis".
It is hard for me to categorize this book; it is a spiritual book, illuminating one man's relationship with the Spirit; it is a profound meditation on the nature of truth, morality and friendship, and it is a priceless analysis of human nature. Blindness was no impediment to Lusseyran - on the contrary, he learnt to use his senses with an uncanny precision to represent facts by creating visual imagery, to identify the motives that drive people and countries and to establish contact with the transcendental essence of all Being. "People were not at all what they were said to be, and never the same for more than two minutes at a stretch. Some were, of course, but that was a bad sign, a sign that they did not want to understand or be alive, that they were somehow caught in the glue of some indecent passion. ... It is strange that when laws men make are so ticklish in matters concerning the body, they never set limits to nakedness or contact by voice. Evidently they leave out of account the fact that the voice can go further than hands or eyes in licit or illicit touch."
This book is very valuable for its insights on the nature of blindness and sensory-emotional reorganization that accompanies it. "Blindness works like dope, a fact we have to reckon with. ...Like drugs, blindness heightens certain sensations, giving sudden and often disturbing sharpness to the senses of hearing and touch. But, most of all, like a drug, it develops inner as against outer experience, and sometimes to excess" (p.49).
I just cannot help myself from quoting from this book, it is so full of unforgettable passages. This is from the time he was caught, as a member of the Resistance, by the Gestapo: (p. 245): "One small piece of advice. IN a spot like this, do not go too far afield for help. Either it is right near you, in your heart, or it is nowhere. It is not a question of character, it is a question of reality. If you try to be strong, you will be weak. If you try to understand, you will go crazy. No, reality is not your charaqcter which, for its part, is only a by-product - I can't define it, a collection of elements. Reality is Here and Now. It is the life you are living in the moment. Don't be afraid to lose your soul there, for God is in it."
As you can see, this book was written by a remarkable man, who could "see" life and truth and humaneness better than many of his fellow men. Now, when our times in some ways resemble the late 30ies and we again seem to be descending into the darkness of ignorance, when the world is run by corrupt, greedy and cynical men who value their comfort above and beyond the dignity of their souls and happiness of their fellow men, Lusseyran's book provides a ray of light and a courage. I salute this amazing man.
The Touch of a Master's Hand.......2004-02-15
I found Jacques Lusseyran in 1969 when he became my teacher and advisor in the graduate program of French at the University of Hawaii. He also became one of my dearest friends. I lost him two short years later when he and his wife were killed on a lonely French country road in a car wreck. The terrible irony of having survived the Nazi occupation of France, as well as his betrayal, capture, torture and the final years in Buchenwald becomes self-evident as one reads this book. But more than the irony, this book portrays Jacques' great capacity for joy and hope and faith.
He taught me to have faith and hope, in God and in others, as well as in myself and in those gifts which each of us possess. I have shed many tears because I lost him. I loved him and his wife, both for what they taught me and what they gave me: joy in life and living; faith that even in the worst of human pain and suffering there is still always hope.
I have also shed many tears since then of gratitude for those two brief years of my life. And I continue our conversations about all things good and joyful through reading And There Was Light. Jacques Lusseyran and his life have changed my life and I rejoice and am grateful.
Book Description
Sarah Conover's collection of traditional Buddhist tales leads us to the kind of implicit understanding of ourselves and others that only stories can provide. Following the Buddha through his various transformations, these clarified and often humorous narrative journeys open the ancient master's profound and gentle teachings to persons of all ages, religions, races, and ideological persuasions. Over and over, this marvelous book tells us, "Let go of your anger, your fear, your greedy desire. Embrace gladness. Follow the path." The stories form a wondrous pageant: of elephants, monkeys, monks, and men working through foolishness toward wisdom and delight.

Beautifully done.......2007-04-20
This book is an excellent book to introduce children to Buddhist (and Taoist) philosophy with simple parables and tales.
Kindness goes a long way.......2007-04-04
First I used this book with my children as we learned about different religions and spiritual views. As they got older we visited it again because these Buddhist stories are applicable to so many situations in life regardless of your views on God, theist, or atheist.
Now as a religious education teacher of younger people at the Unitarian Universalist fellowship I use this book extensively when teaching about buddhism, kindness, compassion and many other concepts. Well written and engaging for all ages, but best for elementary school age children. My middle schoolers still love the stories.
Kindness.......2007-02-18
This is a great book with lessons and values for children. It makes them think. It would be a great and thoughtful gift regardless of your religious tradition.
Beautiful book--great for adults as well as kids.......2007-01-19
This is the second Buddhism-for-kids book my 9 year old and I have read together and it is definitely a keeper. The stories are short and interesting--really well edited so that you don't have to dig for the moral, but at the same time you don't feel like your being bashed over the head with the lesson (hmm, not a very Buddhist analogy there). It is a beautifully designed book as well. We're not yet through it all, but I know this is one we will re-read together.
I thought it was going to be a picture book........2007-01-12
It's a good book to read to your kids. Just the words aren't as simple that children would understand the stories easily. But very good for parents and adults!
Book Description
A personal exploration of the conjunction between ancient Mesoamerican prophesy and New Age higher consciousness.
• Selected by the Independent Publisher's Book Awards as one of the top two New Age books of the year.
• Explores ancient prophesies and their relevance in the contemporary world.
The Incan and Mayan cultures saw themselves as "children of light"--descended from celestial realms--and their prophecies foretell a time of great spiritual awakening. They prophesied a time when the gateways to higher consciousness would open once again. That time is now.
Award-winning author Judith Bluestone Polich draws on her extensive research in quantum physics, archeoastronomy, holography, cosmology, and pioneering studies of human consciousness to show how science and contemporary thought are consistent with this ancient knowledge. As the ancients predicted, the human god-seed is beginning to awaken, and modern civilization is finally beginning to perceive human potential in ways that the ancient cultures accepted as truth. Polich introduces techniques for awakening our own human potential through dreaming, meditations, and the power of sacred sites.
Customer Reviews:
of moderate interest.......2007-06-02
I WANTED TO LIKE THIS BOOK...but it was rambling and very poorly edited. The people who want to convince others that these concepts are true are going to have to do better! Moments of interest... but,overall, disappointing.
Return of the Children of Light.......2007-05-19
I am still reading this book but it is well written. I just loved it and found myself taking notes as I read it which is something I never do. Well worth buying and reading.
The best overview to Andean Mysticism.......2005-01-25
This is a great overview to Andean Mysticism. It covers a wide variety of sources into one well done collection. The author has done her homework and it shows. This books gives you a very strong impression of Incan and Mayan thought. Very well done.
For more advanced studies you can look into Shaman, Healer, Sage by Villoldo and Masters Of The Living Energy by Joan Parisi Wilcox.
Just a little to new agey for my taste.......2002-01-24
The author believes that we are of a higher consciousness and order, she also believes that matter is light frozen in form.The author links the Biblical Elohim with ancient gods that are dedicated to help humanity evolve. ''Possible''. This is a short but interesting book on ancient knowledge. Worth a look at.
Fabulous book!.......2001-11-07
Hi. This book is required reading if you're considering a trip to Peru, Mexico, or are currently on your own mystical cosmic voyage. There are so many wonderful bits of information and it really helped me understand a lot about things that had happened in my life during and after trips to Peru, Greece, Mexico, and other power spots. If you're inquisitive and steadfastly "on the Path", then this should be in your hands. Five stars. To the author: Please write more books, Judith! Thank you for bringing forth this incredible book.

Customer Reviews:
"Page Turner".......2007-05-12
My 10 y/o referred to this as a "page-turner" and loved it so much she bought a large, hardcover Molly book with six different stories included (not offered thru Amazon) at a chain-bookstore last evening. She says, "It's incredibly interesting and I wished the book never ended. Probably the most interesting book I've ever read."
More than just a mystery.......2007-04-26
The Light in the Cellar is much more than just a mystery; it is also a patriotic book of one girl's determination to make a difference! It's just too easy to enjoy Molly's sweet charm and zesty determination.
The Light in the Cellar is a mystery about missing rationed goods. Someone is stealing sugar, and Molly knows it's up to her to put the clues together.
This Molly Mystery, which takes place during WWII, does such a great job of relaying a patriotic message. Molly and all of her friends and family are always doing their part to help with the war-effort.
To find out why there is a "light in the cellar" you'll have to read this great mystery. This book is sure to be a page-turner and you'll enjoy Molly's journey, as you wonder, "will Molly catch the thief?"
Readers will be turning the pages quickly to see if Molly's detective work will solve the mystery!
Also, be sure to check out the last few pages, filled with a lot of interesting information about WWII, rationing goods, and much more!
Book Description
In the highest teachings, the elements are understood to be the radiance of being and are accessed through pure awareness. This book offers the reader healing meditations and yogic practices on each of these levels.

Learn To Think Like A Tibetan.......2007-05-06
Forgive me if I respond first to the review below that said "watch out! This isn't Buddhism!" What that person doesn't know is Tenzin Rinpoche's books are usually prefaced by the Dalai Lama--that's how accepted this is as a legitimate spiritual pathway. This isn't like western religions where diversity means you have to burn somebody at the stake. Everybody is openly accepted for what of value they can offer and Bon has a very alive dzogchen transmission that is second to none. Sorry for this digression.
Anyway, what I liked about his book--other than the fact that Tenzin Wangyal is tops in the Tibetan community in his ability to communicate clearly with westerners (you'll be amazed)is the fact that this book is kind of a lesson in how Tibetans think--which is not required certainly, but if you are studying Tibetan spirituality and are really serious it's something you will find helpful.
LIke his book on Dream Yoga it is extremely readable and is something you can digest with no forehead massaging. I have met Tenzin Wangyal and he is a really good person and nice guy and I always remember in the sleepy period after lunch him chuckling looking out at the sleepy group and saying, "It's earth-element time."
This is a painless way to fill in a gap in your attempts to understand the culture and spirituality of Tibet.
good reference book.......2007-03-11
If you have a basic understanding of other five element practices, this book is a great resource to round out understanding from the Tibetan Bon teaching. It also covers what in TCM are the Jing, Qi and Shen levels of the Bon approach. Very clearly and openly. I thoroughly enjoyed the author's writing style and felt the generousity of spirit in his writing. But remember that information does not make a practice, only a practice makes a practice.
watch out.......2006-11-23
As the teachings of Buddhism cross the pacific ocean, it is very difficult to know what is true and what is false. this is false teachings. We here in the United States think that we live in a world that there are many choices and that we can pick and choose.
Our deluded thinking that we have the ability to choose what is best is absolutely wrong.
this book steals from Vajrayana Buddhism but is aligned with Bonpo. All buddhist and those that are trying to learn about Vajrayana Buddhism, just do not buy. Look to the sacred text of true Vajrayana teachers such as Padmasambava, Patrul Rinpoche, Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, Dudjom Rinpoche, Thinley Norbu.
In Tibet, only those that are regarded a true teachers have the right to teach and be a guide. Beware of those that come with nice sounding words but have not wisdom.
You want to follow Bonpo, then buy this book as well as those from Namkai Norbu. But for the rest, those that seek full awakening through the path of Vajrayana buddhism, this book will only lead you astray.
Best book on the subject available.......2006-06-07
The title is not a put-down of books like "Rainbow of Liberated Energy" or "The Five Wisdom Energies". They do particular justice to the subject of the five 'elements'. The point that I want to make is that I liked this one best, not just because of the friendly and precise writing style, but because this one goes to the roots of the system - the primordial basis of Tibetan metaphysics.
Rimpoche, rather that relying on abstraction and theoretical discourse, covers the subject in a way that is so jam-packed with teaching I had to stop every few pages to make sure I hadn't read a hundred. For me, that is real praise, because I tend to skim for the interesting points and ignore repitition and redundancy etc. I couldn't find anything to ignore in this book.
This is not a treatment of the jungwa as a topic - it is a workbook; a training manual on approaching meditation/tantra/shamanic practice from the standpoint of balancing and harmonizing the workings of the five elements in the physical body. It's a field guide to working with the Panchamahabhutas, or five great states, in a simple and practical way. I would recommend it to anyone interested in Tibetan mystical practices, Yoga, Asian spirituality, Tantra, or Alchemy - it's a good way to get started on a path that will take you where you want to go.
5 Million Stars: Help to Heal Yourself with This Book.......2006-04-17
An INDESPENSIBLE, highly special resource for those interesting in: delving into the elements as a way to heal self and world, delving into different meditative practices, and deepening the ability to abide in a healing and balanced state of being. Most helpful to me has been the emphasis on the WHY of spiritual practice...i.e., practice is only half complete if it is "me" centered. The teachings in this book are given with immeasurable clarity, light, and love. This teacher, this book, is a refuge, a light, and a blessing. May all beings benefit.
