Books with author Stephanie Finne

Hermes—also known as Mercury, Wayfinder, and Prince of Thieves—has many talents. Wearing his famed winged sandals, he does the bidding of his father Zeus, leads the dead down to Hades, and practices his favorite arts of trickery and theft. He also sees the future, travels invisibly, loves jokes, and abhors violence. And he’s an entertaining and ideal narrator on a fast-paced journey through ancient Greek mythology—from Medusa’s cave to Trojan War battlefields to the mysterious Underworld. Stephanie Spinner brings the famous messenger—and the best-known gods and mortals of mythology—to life with high action and spare, powerful prose.

WATER SPIRIT DAMOSEL, the Lady of the Lake, glides through Arthurian legend like a glamorous wraith, shimmering and shifting between the worlds of fairies and humans. Her knowledge is vast (magic, metal, men’s hearts) and leads to her greatest honor—and worst mistake. Damosel makes a promise to the wizard Merlin to protect young King Arthur, and then dares to break it—with devastating results. All the while, 17-year-old Twixt—a dwarf in a world where difference can be deadly—finds himself freed from his cruel masters and moving closer to the one place he never expected to see: King Arthur’s court at Camelot.Stephanie Spinner intertwines the two narratives of Damosel and Twixt to draw us straight into the rich Arthurian land of enchantment.

Humans have been drawing pictures since some ancient man drew something on the ground or on the walls of his cave. These images were representations of their life. The very first drawings may have been drawn using a stick or a rock. Their canvas: the walls of the cave they dwell in. There are many examples of cave paintings portraying animals and humans. Some also show the activities of these ancient humans. The pictures we have drawn have evolved along with the human brain. As the brain grew more sophisticated, so did the drawings and pictures. Some became more realistic; showing what the artist sees in reality. Others tried to draw and paint the emotions they have. There have been scores of great painters in history.
