Daughter of the Forest is a testimony to an incredible author's talent, a first novel and the beginning of a trilogy like no other: a mixture of history and fantasy, myth and magic, legend and love. Lord Colum of Sevenwaters is blessed with six sons: Liam, a natural leader; Diarmid, with his passion for adventure; twins Cormack and Conor, each with a different calling; rebellious Finbar, grown old before his time by his gift of the Sight; and the young, compassionate Padriac. But it is Sorcha, the seventh child and only daughter, who alone is destined to defend her family and protect her land from the Britons and the clan known as Northwoods. For her father has been bewitched, and her brothers bound by a spell that only Sorcha can lift. To reclaim the lives of her brothers, Sorcha leaves the only safe place she has ever known, and embarks on a journey filled with pain, loss, and terror. When she is kidnapped by enemy forces and taken to a foreign land, it seems that there will be no way for her to break the spell that condemns all that she loves. But magic knows no boundaries, and Sorcha will have to choose between the life she has always known and a love that comes only once. Juliet Marillier is a rare talent, a writer who can imbue her characters and her story with such warmth, such heart, that no reader can come away from her work untouched.

During a time when young men have a hard time grasping what it means to sacrifice and take care of the family and young ladies have forgotten the art of what it means to take care of a household, raising children, and instilling morals and values in them . . . The Seven Sons and Seven Daughters is a heartwarming tribute that gives the depiction of a strong black woman who loved hard and allowed it to show in her everyday life. It is an epic tale of struggles of an ex-alcoholic father, who-through the grace of God-was able to lay down the bottle and pick up salvation and a new determination on life. It is the story of strength, adversity, spirituality, and growth, laced with the pain and tragedy of death and life after death. The Seven Sons and Seven Daughters is a gentle reminder of the days when blacks had little to no rights, with little to no resources to do much to better self and how a little Mississippi family found the strength to overcome every obstacle that was placed before them. In a day and age where technology has taken over the world, where children would rather stay in the house and play video games than to play in the park or play a good game of tag or freeze football. During an era where little girls don't see the joy in playing with Barbie's or playing dress up, in their mother's old clothes.

Using practical, firsthand stories that offer helpful, portable takeaways, Pastor Boyd looks at the interweaving of his journey from spiritual orphan to treasured son, offering candid stories and freeing insights for every Christian still longing to come home. The truth is, many of us as Christians still strive to “fit in” with God even when our Father offers us the identity of beloved daughters and sons. We’ve already been admitted, approved, and accepted—but we aren’t living that way. In Sons and Daughters, Pastor Boyd looks at the interweaving of God’s grace and our daily lives: How do those who know they are God’s children think, speak, and act differently? How do they function as leaders and friends? How do they walk through pain? You—and the purposes God has for you—are a cause for celebration, a reason to be both fearless and faithful. Come discover how to live like you belong.

A son's death. A mother's grief. Accusations. Condemnation. Guilt. Alienation. What is left of a family in the aftermath of violence? Set in East Flatbush, Brooklyn; Trinidad; Barbados; Northern California; and throughout the globe, The Sons and Daughters of Ham is the story of a Caribbean-American family, an African-American young man, violence, choice, and destiny. The Sons and Daughters of Ham, Book I: A Requiem, is the first book in Petra E. Lewis' powerful inter-generational and historical literary-fiction trilogy. The books' concept started with three acts of violence in the author's own life-the final one being the murder of a young man.
