EXPECTING SOMEONE TALLER - All he did was run over a badger - sad, but hardly catastrophic. But it wasn't Malcolm Fisher's day, for the badger turned out to be none other than Ingolf, last of the Giants. With his dying breath, he reluctantly handed to Malcolm two Gifts of Power, and made him ruler of the world. But can Malcolm cope with the responsibility?
YE GODS! - Being a Hero bothers Jason Derry. It's easy to get maladjusted when your mum's a suburban housewife and your dad's the Supreme Being. It can be a real drag slaying fabulous monsters and retrieving golden fleeces from fire-spitting dragons, and then having to tidy your room before your mum'll let you watch Star Trek.
But it's not the relentless tedium of imperishable glory that finally brings Jason to the end of his rope; it's something so funny that it's got to be taken seriously. Deadly seriously
While the second story, Ye Gods, is merely OK. The good news is that there are very few of them. This has been good for me already and I've only been to the first two chapters. As a result, many want to know, Who Is Ayn Rand?
This short book (1 hour of reading) by Andrew Bernstein does justice to that question for anyone who is asking. These two are meant to be, the question is just can they let go of past hurts and let themselves have some happiness? Can they heal each other?
Disclaimer: I was gifted a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. A very well written book. If you've done that go outside and enjoy what you have learned from the masters and leave Brill to himself, I think he likes it that way.. When we started our Butterfly study and grew them in a netted house, the children liked watching them and were able to color and make up different colors from the copies I had form the designs in this kit. A good writer.. It definitely changed ours!! ++. All
