The Syrein of Alserrac - The Last Sorceress

By: Olivia Jane Michaels

The once beautiful and tranquil country of Alserrac has been invaded, its people enslaved, and the Syrein - a community of mystical sorceresses - are in exile, hunted and persecuted wherever they set foot. High in the mountains, a small band of rebels gathers together, an army of Ghost Warriors determined to regain control of their country. Meanwhile, across the seas, on the western shores of Carlinden, a young girl grows up entirely unaware of the powerful gifts she has inherited. In the shadow cast by the dark and doom-laden Keype of Halskird, friendships are forged, love blossoms, and the bravery of a few human allies - and one loyal dragon - is all that stands between the Syrein and complete destruction.

Transnational Australian Cinema

Ethics in the Asian Diasporas

By: Olivia Khoo,Belinda Smaill,Audrey Yue

To date, there has been little sustained attention given to the historical cinema relations between Australia and Asia. This is a significant omission given Australia’s geo-political position and the place Asia has held in the national imaginary, oscillating between threat and opportunity. Many accounts of Australian cinema begin with the 1970s film revival, placing “Asian Australian cinema” within a post-revival schema of multicultural or diasporic cinema and ignoring Asian Australian connections prior to the revival. Transnational Australian Cinema charts a history of Asian Australian cinema, encompassing the work of diasporic Asian filmmakers, films featuring images of Asia and Asians, films produced by Australians working in Asia’s film industries or addressed at Asian audiences, and Asian films that use Australian resources, including locations and personnel. Utilizing an interdisciplinary approach, the book considers diasporic Asian histories, the impact of government immigration and film policies on representation, and the new aesthetic styles and production regimes created by filmmakers who have forged links, both through roots and routes, with Asia. This expanded history of Asian Australian cinema allows for a renewed discussion of so called dormant periods in the nation’s film history. In this respect, the mapping of an expanded history of cinema practices contributes to our broader aim to rethink the transnationalism of Australian cinema.

Pen Pals

By: Olivia Goldsmith

“If you couldn’t put down The First Wives Club, add Pen Pals to your reading list…Olivia Goldsmith’s latest twist on love and revenge…left us smiling.”—Good Housekeeping This was not supposed to happen. Wall Street wiz Jennifer Spencer took the rap for her powerful boss on insider trading charges—barely questioning his assurances that she’d never actually be convicted. Now she’s exchanged her Armani suit for an orange jumpsuit, and she’s settling in at the Jennings Correctional Facility for Women. And her well-connected lawyer, who also happens to be her fiancé, has taken her three-carat diamond ring back—for “safekeeping.” Things look grim. But after a rocky start, Jennifer finds herself making friends with Movita, who works in the warden’s office, and getting to know her fellow inmates Suki, Cher, and Theresa. Then Movita discovers that as gloomy and run-down as Jennings may be, it might soon get worse—because a profit-minded private company is angling behind the scenes to take it over. If there’s anyone who knows about bad deals, it’s Jennifer Spencer. And with Movita’s street smarts, Jennifer’s Wall Street smarts, and Cher’s talent for larceny, they’re about to make the investment of a lifetime....
