Lily Proctor has come a long way from the weak, sickly girl she used to be. She has gained power as a witch and a leader, found her way home, chosen to face battle again, and (after losing her first love and being betrayed by her new love) she has learned more about loss and grief than she ever wanted to know. Thrust once again into a society different from anything they have ever seen, Lily and her coven are determined to find answers—to find a new path to victory, a way to defeat the monstrous Woven without resorting to nuclear weapons or becoming a tyrannical mass murderer like her alternate self, Lillian. But sometimes winning requires sacrifices . . . and when the only clear path to victory lies at Lillian's side, what price will Lily be willing to pay? Internationally bestselling author Josephine Angelini takes us on another emotionally wrenching thrill ride in the stunning conclusion to her Worldwalker Trilogy.

Leon's panic stricken eyes locked on hers, wide and full of fear. "I killed her", he confessed in stunted gasps. "In the crematorium. Ten years ago". The meaning of his words began to dawn on her, and she pulled backwards slowly. "Leon", she asked in an overly-calm voice. "What did you do?" He gan to break down in tears. "I killed her," he wept. "Burned her up. I had to. She attacked me. She couldn't have been alive. She wasn't alive". Leon's mind was slowly surfacing back to reality, and his sentences took more form. "I was doing an autopsy. On a girl. Sexual assault victim. She was...mulitated, terribly. I was halfway through the autopsy, when she.." Leon began to cough heavily, starving himself of oxygen. "She came alive". Impossibly. She attacked me. She would have killed me". He began sobbing heavily again. "She's still trying to".

From one of rock's greatest writers, Love Becomes a Funeral Pyre is the definitive biography of the Doors Spanning the entire history of the band, from the birth of its members to the deaths of those who have departed, this book will long remain the definitive history of a band that changed the history of popular music. The band that started out as the "American Rolling Stones," noted for their wildly unpredictable performances, their jazzy vibe, and the crazed monologues of their front man, ended as badly as did the '60s: abruptly, bloodily, cripplingly. Along with evoking the cultural milieu of Los Angeles in the era, bestselling writer Mick Wall captures the true spirit of that tarnished age. From the release of their classic first album, The Doors, to their last with Jim Morrison, L.A. Woman, this band biography is a brilliantly penetrating and contemporary investigation into the real story of the Doors.

Download Pyre of a Phoenix Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The Phoenix is a mythical creature known to be a sign of rebirth and strength. The book, ‘Pyre of a Phoenix’ – is a collection of writings of the author’s own lived experiences on her attempt to rise from the ‘ashes’ of her gloom. Each writing poetically describes how common emotions – like grief, sorrow and pain are encountered by the author and how she tries to tackle them each day. This book has been written with the hope to find and help people who often feel the same but lack the opportunity or company to express themselves. As one proceeds, the book speaks about many such random yet critical issues which burden us every day but remain brushed under the carpet.
