This carefully crafted ebook: "ADELA CATHCART - The Complete Fantasy Tales Series: The Light Princess, The Shadows, Christmas Eve, The Giant's Heart, The Broken Swords, The Cruel Painter, The Castle and many more" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Excerpt: "I confess I was a little dismayed to find what a solemn turn the club-stories had taken. But this dismay lasted for a moment only; for I saw that Adela was deeply interested, again wearing the look that indicates abstracted thought and feeling. I said to myself: "This is very different mental fare from what you have been used to, Adela." But she seemed able to mark, learn, and inwardly digest it, for she had the appearance of one who is stilled by the strange newness of her thoughts. I was sure that she was now experiencing a consciousness of existence quite different from anything she had known before. But it had a curious outcome." George MacDonald (1824-1905) was a Scottish author, poet, and Christian minister. He was a pioneering figure in the field of fantasy literature and the mentor of fellow writer Lewis Carroll. His writings have been cited as a major literary influence by many notable authors including W. H. Auden, C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, Walter de la Mare, E. Nesbit and Madeleine L'Engle. G. K. Chesterton cited The Princess and the Goblin as a book that had "made a difference to my whole existence".

This carefully crafted ebook: "At the Back of the North Wind (Illustrated)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. At the Back of the North Wind is a children's book by George MacDonald. It is a fantasy centered on a boy named Diamond and his adventures with the North Wind. Diamond is a very sweet little boy who makes joy everywhere he goes. He fights despair and gloom and brings peace to his family. One night, as he is trying to sleep, Diamond repeatedly plugs up a hole in the loft wall to stop the wind from blowing in. However, he soon finds out that this is stopping the North Wind from seeing through her window. Diamond befriends her, and North Wind lets him ride on her back, taking him on several adventures. Though the North Wind does good deeds and helps people, she also does seemingly terrible things. On one of her assignments, she must sink a ship. Yet everything she does that seems bad leads to something good. The North Wind seems to be a representation of Pain and Death working according to God's will for something good. George MacDonald (1824-1905) was a Scottish author, poet, and Christian minister. He was a pioneering figure in the field of fantasy literature and the mentor of fellow writer Lewis Carroll. His writings have been cited as a major literary influence by many notable authors including W. H. Auden, C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, Walter de la Mare, E. Nesbit and Madeleine L'Engle. G. K.

"Be thou the well by which I lie and rest; Be thou my tree of life, my garden ground; Be thou my home, my fire, my chamber blest, My book of wisdom, loved of all the best; Oh, be my friend, each day still newer found, As the eternal days and nights go round! Nay, nay—thou art my God, in whom all loves are bound!" In 1880, the prolific author George MacDonald self-published a long poem in book form as a gift for his friends. He called it, in full, A Book of Strife in the Form of the Diary of an Old Soul. It contained a new seven-line stanza for each day of the calendar year, written as prayers expressing MacDonald's longings, struggles, and joys in everyday life. The Diary was originally printed with a blank page facing every page of poetry so that readers could supplement MacDonald's diary with their own. This feature in particular, along with the spiritual wisdom and literary artistry of the text itself, was beloved by C. S. Lewis, who gave a copy of the book to his future wife, Joy Davidman, as a Christmas gift in 1952. Now in this deluxe edition, MacDonald's classic devotional resource is again available with the blank pages he envisioned alongside the complete text. With a new introduction and explanatory notes by historian Timothy Larsen, the beloved writer's prayers find new life for enthusiasts and first-time readers alike. - Complete text of MacDonald's classic work—one poem for each day of the year - Thoughtful layout with a blank page for journaling opposite each poem - Introduction and annotations by historian Timothy Larsen - Deluxe features including cloth binding and bookmark ribbon

«MacDonald consigue un diálogo eficacísimo, algunas oportunas gotas de humor y una evidente comprensión del alma infantil. Es muy probable que sus hijos, sin saberlo, le enseñaran tanto como él a ellos». Del prólogo de CARMEN MARTÍN GAITE La princesa huérfana Irene vive en un majestuoso castillo en lo alto de una montaña. Su padre el rey viaja continuamente a países lejanos, mientras bajo la montaña que corona el castillo, los mineros trabajan sin descanso para sacar a la luz las riquezas profundas de la tierra. Irene, inquieta, soñadora, independiente, es incapaz de esperar pacientemente el regreso de su padre, no solo porque el lugar adecuado para una niña no es el cuarto del bordado, sino porque, primero los trasgos, astutos y pérfidos, se han confabulado para raptarla y obligarla a casarse con su príncipe, y luego, porque el don de adivinar quién es humano y quién bestia con solo tocarlo que la gran-más-que-abuela ha concedido a su amigo Curdie, no han hecho otra cosa que complicarle la vida.

George MacDonald's 'Lilith' is a dark fantasy classic that delves into the realm of dreams, imagination, and metaphysical reality. The book follows the protagonist as he embarks on a mystical journey to confront the mysterious and seductive Lilith, a character deeply rooted in myth and folklore. MacDonald's lyrical and poetic writing style captivates readers, immersing them in a world where the boundaries between dream and reality are blurred, forcing them to question the nature of existence itself. 'Lilith' is a thought-provoking and enigmatic tale that challenges conventional perceptions of good and evil, leaving readers pondering the deeper philosophical themes long after the final page. George MacDonald, a Scottish author and minister, drew inspiration from his religious beliefs and his fascination with the supernatural to create this uniquely haunting and atmospheric novel. His background in theology and literature lends depth and complexity to the narrative, enriching the reading experience with layers of symbolism and allegory. I highly recommend 'Lilith' to readers who enjoy dark fantasy with a philosophical twist, as well as those interested in exploring the intersections of dreams, reality, and the human psyche.
