Blood-soaked soil. Crumbled walls. Thousands of slain rabbits. The Third Rabbit-Lupine War’s appetite for death would only be satiated by the complete collapse of the Land of the Sun and Moon. Opulus’ tightening stranglehold of the realm cannot come to pass. With Ragnar Sedrid rescued and the Tseontaeg slavers slain, House Vigilance seeks out new frontiers to spread both their virtuous name and potent hatred of tyrannical Opulus alike. War summons opportunity to venerate the house and thwart the evil of their opponent. Corsair Sedrid’s allies – both old and new – follow the wandering troupe of feline warriors in their quest to return to their rightful home. Such an expedition is not ought to be taken lightly. In their quest to right the wrongs of their usurpers, the wolves venture towards a realm of legislated murder - of centuries of horrid violence that shape war’s convention - in which the grotesque face of the civilised world’s innovations makes it grand debut.

The first three books in 'Vos Draemar', a series of epic fantasy novels by H.G. Sansostri, now available in one volume! The Sharpened Fangs Of Lupine Spirit: When war's thunderous howl sounds in the East, brothers Corsair and Ragnar Sedrid are ripped away from their past lives and marched into the chaos of combat. But war is the least harrowing trial facing the Sedrid brothers: malevolence wreaks havoc and figures speak of conspiracy in the shadows. Vos Draemar hosts more evil than the two wolves can ever begin to fathom, and their journey is just beginning. Malice Reflected in Black and Blood: Deuvick Feldanas is host to nothing but endless snow and decrepit ghost towns; even beasts value their life more than to venture into this wasteland. Even so, Sedrid and his companions know their next mission: track down and rescue their friend from exile. But the expedition is not without its obstacles; an unfathomable evil stirs below the snow, ready to awaken and bring destruction to their world. Our Crimson Iterations of Purpose: In the aftermath of war, House Vigilance seeks out new frontiers to spread their virtuous name. Corsair Sedrid’s allies – both old and new – follow the wandering troupe of warriors in their quest to return to their rightful home. But such an expedition is not ought to be taken lightly. In their quest to right the wrongs of their usurpers, the wolves venture towards a realm filled with centuries of horrid violence that shape war’s convention, in which the grotesque face of the civilised world’s innovations makes it grand debut.

Alert and streetwise, but tuned into the undercurrent of things, Choi’s poetry creates environments at once familiar but dreamlike, marked by a preternatural clarity. Favoring imagistic condensation and formal trimness, Choi’s poetry possesses a highly-suggestive, allusive intensity that locates the startling within the familiar. Always rooted in the here-and-now, Choi’s speakers are simultaneously outside it, questioning the propriety of our taken-for-granted arrangements. Delicate and wistful, this poetry has the tensile strength to address itself to the deepest challenges of human experience: as Choi writes, with characteristic (and deceptive) off-handedness, “hey abyss.” In a world of inconstancy and ceaseless transformation, Choi’s poetry forgoes easy consolations and instead offers poetry of the highest order as the only consolation. Reading it offers an almost vertiginous sense of the variousness of experience. As Brenda Hillman observes, “There is a quality of imagination in her work that is still a rare thing in poetry.”

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this, the extraordinary conclusion of the ice-age epic series, Earth’s Children®, Ayla, Jondalar, and their infant daughter, Jonayla, are living with the Zelandonii in the Ninth Cave. Ayla has been chosen as an acolyte to a spiritual leader and begins arduous training tasks. Whatever obstacles she faces, Ayla finds inventive ways to lessen the difficulties of daily life, searching for wild edibles to make meals and experimenting with techniques to ease the long journeys the Zelandonii must take while honing her skills as a healer and a leader. And there are the Sacred Caves that Ayla’s mentor takes her to see. They are filled with remarkable paintings of mammoths, lions, and bears, and their mystical aura at times overwhelms Ayla. But all the time Ayla has spent in training rituals has caused Jondalar to drift away from her. The rituals themselves bring her close to death, but through them Ayla gains A Gift of Knowledge so important that it will change her world. BONUS: This edition contains a reading guide and an interview with Jean M. Auel. Sixth in the acclaimed Earth’s Children® series.
