Títulos em Contos de Fada

In the ancient world, during the time of war, gods, and monsters. A sensation had been detected approaching Gaia, so ominous that it was felt across the cosmos by the few who dwelled in its supreme echelon. One Fallen Immortal will be pursued by mercenaries, the divine, and above all, those he once held dear from his past life. The clashes between these factions will decide who becomes an ally or who’s next. The deep bonds of both friendship and love will be strained, some may even be severed.

Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Swineherd” tells the story of a Prince who, rejected by an arrogant Princess who disdains his genuine gifts of a rose and nightingale, disguises himself as a swineherd. The Princess is then lured by the Swineherd’s clever, but ultimately superficial, trinkets, trading kisses for a magical pot and a musical rattle. When the Emperor discovers his daughter’s scandalous behavior, he banishes them both, only for the Prince to reveal his true identity and denounce her for valuing triviality over true worth and rejecting his genuine love.

As the fate of the great city of Zondrell—and perhaps all of M'Gistryn—spirals out of control, there are few brave souls left. But even in the face of internal strife, unknown magic, legendary monsters, or even the gods themselves, they will not submit, for they are the last hope for the future.

Queen Lauriel hoards wealth and persecutes anyone with magic. She even cancels the Midwinter Glee festival, claiming that it wastes the Crown's money.

Centraal staat de botsing tussen religies in Engeland aan het einde van de 5de eeuw. Heidenen en Christenen staan met getrokken wapens tegenover elkaar, maar ook de godin Isis speelt nog een rol. Arthurs wijze raadgever, Merlijn, is dan weer op jacht naar de laatste mystieke schat van Engeland: de Ketel van Clyddno Eiddyn… oftewel de Heilige Graal.

Arthur probeert, met een idealisme dat tegen het naïeve aanschurkt, alle stammen van het land te verdedigen tegen de Saksen. Met de tovenaar Merlijn aan zijn zijde maakt hij misschien een kans om het recht te doen zegevieren… maar vergist hij zich niet in de rol van de magiër? Het Engeland van de 6de eeuw is één grote chaos.

Het grootste probleem is echter hun onderlinge rivaliteit.

In Chronicles of Ori, her debut book, Harmonia Rosales retells the African myths she has long treasured, crafting an enthralling epic that spans the birth of the universe to the modern world of colonialism and resistance. She writes of the powerful, temperamental deities called the Orishas; of the founding of Yorubaland by the shrewd leader Oduduwa; of the young heroine Eve, born in a time of violence and despair, who would help her people regain their past splendor; and of shimmering serpents and monstrous shadows who stalk the lands of mortals.

Heel ver wegvluchten wil Thomas echter níet, want in Gascogne hoopt hij de moordenaar van zijn vader te vinden.

Revealing how queerness, nature and myth have been intertwined for eternity, these are stories of gods and goddesses: of Zeus, of Eurydice, of Hermaphroditus, of Icarus before he flew into the sun. Stories of queer life, lust, revenge, wrath, passion and sex. Of yearning, love, loss. Some stories span across a life, and others, an evening. Perspectives will shift. Houses will burn.
