Does a person truly possess free-will, or is their life set by fate. And if it is set by fate, how is a person to respond, how must they act? Does it even matter? These are the struggles facing Dureyin as he hides from his past. Quelvyn's Rede is the tale of a Chosen Race that is Broken by Evil, that Battles Evil and ultimately Banishes Evil. The fate of this race is connected to an ancient prophesy and a talisman of great power. It begins with Dureyin, a rebel knight, who is a son of this race and the heir of a ruined kingdom destroyed long ago. He joins Aemyn, an orphan, who has been given guardianship of a Torc necklace, hidden from the ages. A beautiful Færie Princess becomes desperate by the loss of her betrothed upon the field of battle. A Druid's prophecy connects the destinies of the knight, orphan and princess as they strive against unconquerable foes and their own inner destiny. Quelvyn's Rede is a tale of the tension between Good and Evil with monsters, battles and adventure.

A Bibliography of English Etymology

By: Anatoly Liberman,Ari Hoptman,Nathan E. Carlson

Distinguished linguistics scholar Anatoly Liberman set out the frame for this volume in An Analytic Dictionary of English Etymology. Here, Liberman's landmark scholarship lay the groundwork for his forthcoming multivolume analytic dictionary of the English language. A Bibliography of English Etymology is a broadly conceptualized reference tool that provides source materials for etymological research. For each word's etymology, there is a bibliographic entry that lists the word origin's primary sources, specifically, where it was first found in use. Featuring the history of more than 13,000 English words, their cognates, and their foreign antonyms, this is a full-fledged compendium of resources indispensable to any scholar of word origins.

A Natural History of Amphibians

By: Robert C. Stebbins,Nathan W. Cohen

This is a book for all readers who want to learn about amphibians, the animal group that includes frogs, toads, salamanders, and caecilians. It draws on many years of classroom teaching, laboratory experience, and field observation by the authors. Robert Stebbins and Nathan Cohen lead readers on a fascinating odyssey as they explore some of nature's most interesting creatures, interspersing their own observations throughout the book. A Natural History of Amphibians can serve as a textbook for students and independent learners, as an overview of the field for professional scientists and land managers, and as an engaging introduction for general readers. The class Amphibia contains more than 4,500 known living species. New species are being discovered so rapidly that the number may grow to more than 5,000 during our lifetimes. However, their numbers are being rapidly decimated around the globe, largely due to the encroachment of humans on amphibian habitats and from growing human-caused environmental pollution, discussed at length in the final chapter. The authors focus our attention on the "natural history" of amphibians worldwide and emphasize their interactions with their environments over time: where they live; how they reproduce; how they have been affected by evolutionary processes; what factors will determine their destinies over time. Through the experienced eyes of the authors, who are skilled observers, we come to see and understand the place of amphibians in the natural world around us.

Mencken, Nathan edited The Smart Set and founded and edited The American Mercury, journals that shaped opinion in the 1920s and 1930s.
