The story of Hildeburh as it might have been. The is very focused on her and her challenges. It doesn’t paint a pretty picture for Frisians or followers of Woden. Different than works by Walsh or Poage, which focus on Hengest, this is about Hildeburh ...more

I didn’t really know what to expect from this. I am very surprised how much I like it.

This is a collection of two stories, the first being a short previously published. Both are vignettes of a character named Irla. One when he’s 13 and the other a ha

Dreamer, Awake! by Liam Q. D. Hall
"7 (3,5 stars). I follow this author on YouTube for his reviews of older fantasyworks (mostly weird fiction and sword & sorcery) - he isn't reading the current hypes and obsessions and as a reader who tries to develop a broad sense of where the genre " Read more of this review »

J.R.R. Tolkien
“And the ship went out into the High Sea and passed into the West, until at last on a night of rain Frodo smelled a sweet fragrance on the air and heard the sound of singing that came over the water. And then it seemed to him that as in his dream in the house of Bombadil, the grey rain-curtain turned all to silver glass and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a far green country under a swift sunrise.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

Brandon Sanderson
“The purpose of a storyteller is not to tell you how to think, but to give you questions to think upon.”
Brandon Sanderson, The Way of Kings

J.R.R. Tolkien
“It is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till. What weather they shall have is not ours to rule.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

T.S. Eliot
“Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?
Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?”
T.S. Eliot, The Rock

Robert Jordan
“We rode on the winds of the rising storm,
We ran to the sounds of the thunder.
We danced among the lightning bolts,
and tore the world asunder.”
Robert Jordan, The Dragon Reborn
