Books with author W. Barrington

The Snow Prince is more than just a story. It is a life lesson for young and old. It shows us the items we collect are not nearly as important as the people we meet and interact with. No matter what treasures we might collect, they end up being nothing more than items to be dusted. They cannot hug us nor fill the dark hours when we are at our lowest. But the gift of a friend who shares their life with us is a treasure that never grows old. This is the lesson of The Snow Prince.

Excerpt from The Ladies: A Shining Constellation of Wit and BeautyPerhaps of all these women we know best that Eliz abeth who never lived Elizabeth Bennet. She is the most real because her inner being is laid open to us by her great creator. I have not dared to touch her save as a shadow picture in the background of the quiet English country-life which now is gone for ever. But her fragrance stimulating rather than sweet, like lavender and rosemary could not be forgotten in any picture of the late eighteenth or early nineteenth centuries and among the women whom all the world remembers. They, one and all, can only move in dreamland now. Their lives are but stories in a printed book, and a heroine of Jane Austen's is as real as Stella or the fair Walpole. So I apologise for noth ing. I have dreamed. I may hope that others will dream with me.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Why has Elaeus brought them there? Because of the powers they possess and because the Vampires of their world and their leader, the Spider Lord want to use their powers for their own ends; they particularly want Jane's power, the Fire. At Ahalla, they learn about the Vampire Queen, the ruler of the Vampires and about the Dark God, their creator, who mysteriously disappeared from the Universe as a result of the Shockwave, generated by the Impossible Child. Elaeus has brought them to Ahalla because he wants to keep them safe, but he's aware that a future meeting with the enemy back in their own Universe is inevitable.That meeting is about to arrive sooner than he expected and much sooner than he hoped. Having made a brief return to their own Universe, Khalan's on his way to Alasa and heading to his first meeting—and clash—with the Spider Lord...
