Book excerpt: With evil rising, every secret can change the course of history. The curse is broken. The Fae are free. And so is Gandrett-at least to walk away from the palace at Lei'Vreah, from the King of Fae who she supposedly is in love with, from the prince who almost died in her arms. Her friends are out there, needing her help. Mckenzie who is struggling at the Phornian court, and Addie, for who any help might come too late. And her brother- When Gandrett returns to Everrun in the hope of breaking free from the Order at last, she isn't prepared for the mission the Meister sends her on-or for what it will cost her. At least she has a new friend who is ready to fight and die at her side. If only it weren't for the Fae prince she left behind in Ulfray, and the promise he made, she would sleep better-and think better. But something is changing within Gandrett, and there is no denying that eventually, it may cost her everything.

Download or read book Towers in the Void written by S. E. Kile and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2023-05-30 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The maverick cultural entrepreneur Li Yu survived the tumultuous Ming-Qing dynastic transition of the mid-seventeenth century through a commercially successful practice founded on intermedial experimentation. He engaged an astonishingly broad variety of cultural forms: from theatrical performance and literary production to fashion and wellness; from garden and interior design to the composition of letters and administrative documents. Drawing on his nonliterary work to reshape his writing, he translated this wide-ranging expertise into easily transmittable woodblock-printed form. Towers in the Void is a groundbreaking analysis of Li Yu’s work across these varied fields. It uses the concept of media to traverse them, revealing Li Yu’s creative enterprise as a remaking of early modern media forms. S. E. Kile argues that Li Yu’s cultural experimentation exploits the seams between language and the tangible world. He draws attention to the materiality of particular media forms, expanding the scope of early modern media by interweaving books, buildings, and bodies. Within and across these media, Li Yu’s cultural entrepreneurship with the technology of the printed book embraced its reproducibility while retaining a personal touch. His literary practice informed his garden design and, conversely, he drew on garden design to transform the vernacular short story. Ideas for extreme body modification in Li Yu’s fiction remade the possibilities of real human bodies in his nonfiction writing. Towers in the Void calls for seeing books, bodies, and buildings as interlinked media forms, both in early modern China and in today’s media-saturated world, positioning the Ming and Qing as a crucial site of global early modern cultural change.
