Glistening sunlight, a warm breeze and the smell of freshly cut grass. You raise your eyes. The forest, the field and the river seem like something from another world. A scurrying in the undergrowth. An enchanted creature? You run, you stumble, you fall, you pick yourself up. You laugh. The world is a play of colors. Where are you? What time is it? What are you up to? A call from afar. Your name. Time for dinner. All this may seem like a fever dream as you sit here reading these words. Isn't that telling? We've come a long way as adults, but what wouldn't we give to feel like children again? I invite you back to a time when we knew truths that we miss today.

I wrote this book about heartbreak based on a promise I made to myself: If I survive this, I'll share it with the world and let them know how I did it. As it turns out, I did survive the most painful and precious experience of my life. It caused angst and aching, and placed me in a horrible state. However, I lived and learned through this love story gone wrong - or right, as it turned out. It ultimately confirmed my individual purpose in life and was a catalyst for change.Trauma of any kind can cause us to evolve, and I hope my storytelling helps you through your own heartbreak. Many blessings, Samantha
The Essential Cult TV Reader is a collection of insightful essays that examine television shows that amass engaged, active fan bases by employing an imaginative approach to programming. Once defined by limited viewership, cult TV has developed its own identity, with some shows gaining large, mainstream audiences. By exploring the defining characteristics of cult TV, The Essential Cult TV Reader traces the development of this once obscure form and explains how cult TV achieved its current status as legitimate television. The essays explore a wide range of cult programs, from early shows such as Star Trek, The Avengers, Dark Shadows, and The Twilight Zone to popular contemporary shows such as Lost, Dexter, and 24, addressing the cultural context that allowed the development of the phenomenon. The contributors investigate the obligations of cult series to their fans, the relationship of camp and cult, the effects of DVD releases and the Internet, and the globalization of cult TV. The Essential Cult TV Reader answers many of the questions surrounding the form while revealing emerging debates on its future.
First-time author, Sofie Melchart, at the tender age of sixteen has given you a piece of science fiction, fantasy writing that fantasy lovers, werewolf fans, and lovers of magic in all its forms will delight in. She has revealed a fascinating world of magical beings in all its complexity, with marvellous feats of magic, warfare and intrigue. The scenes depicting the battles are graphic, bloodthirsty and even cruel at times.
