This is the story of culture and hybrids. Being scattered throught the country, the Chinese were sexually and geographically integrated into the national community and thus comfortably lent their talents to the development of Trinidad and Tobago in a more all-embracing way than almost anyone or anywhere else.

The dragons bring four couples together. The dragons need them. The elements of their world are represented by water, fire, air and earth dragons. The dragons need the couples but can't or won't reveal why. This box set includes the four sweet short stories as follows: Dragon Descendant - Marelo Marelo studies water dragons. Bandor studies her heart. Driven to succeed, Marelo focuses on her studies. She doesn't have time for males claiming her as a mate. She came here to study the dragon's ancestral home. She will find the evidence she needs while avoiding all males especially Bandor who makes her heart rush. Bandor takes one look at Marelo and knows she's his mate. Her haughty demeaner doesn't put him off. She's his mate, he'll do anything to win her. But he has secrets only his mate can know. Can he convince her to be his mate or will it take something more? Dragon Descendant - Solana Fire dragons are easy for Solana. Mates? Not so much. Lowkas, on his own since he was ten, learned early how to survive alone. Stationed at the fire geysers, he finds home and comfort from a source he didn't expect. When Solana shows up exposing things he's kept secret, he's suspicious. Will Lowkas put his past behind him, or will it take a dragon intervention? Dragon Descendant - Ariana Winnod abandoned Ariana ten years ago. Ariana's fated mate denied her. She mourned his loss but she didn't pursue him. She refused to chase a male who didn't want her. She found her inner peace but her loneliness echoes from her to air dragons. They tell her to call him in the old way. If he's a true mate, he'll return. If he's not, she should move on. When Winnod returns, will his revelations tear them apart or heal the wounds? Dragon Descendant - Bryony What do you do when confronted with an angry earth dragon? Exactly what she tells you to. Newly mated young couple Bryony and Zonlet love exploring caves. During a nearly fatal catastrophe, they run headlong into Gidor an earth dragon. Gidor offers more than just advice and with her gift they work with the other Guardians to solve a mystery. Will Bryony and Zonlet complete their fated mission or turn their backs on the dragons?

News & media coverage! Book Launch of Golden Dragon and Purple Phoenix - 3rd July 2013 Many books have been written about the Chinese in Southeast Asia, but very few, if any, are written specifically about the multi-ethnic descendants of Chinese immigrants. Golden Dragon and Purple Phoenix is not about the diaspora per se of Chinese in Southeast Asia but about the impact of intermarriage between Chinese immigrants and the natives, that is, the intermingling of blood and the offspring from such unions — the influence they wielded on the society and environment they chose to live in. It is also about how they rose to high positions and their contributions to their societies. Some rose to become kings or king makers, others to become presidents, prime ministers, senior ministers, prominent businessmen, or religious leaders. Some openly declared their ancestry and are proud of their Chinese DNA, while others have forgotten their heritage and in their fervour to prove their allegiance to their country of birth, dissociate themselves, assertively through violence, indirectly through economic sanctions and various other means. In short, the multi-ethnic Chinese descendants form a unique community with unique cultural genes of its own, and these fresh and rarely-known stories about them in this book will be a good resource for historical researchers as well as fascinating reading materials for readers in general. With 14 years' experience as a journalist and a 29-year career as a politician and diplomat, Mr. Lee Khoon Choy has set foot on every land in Southeast Asia and observed closely the local life in each country. Mindful of his Hakka identity, Mr. Lee has a keen interest in multi-ethnic Chinese descendants in Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore and Malaysia, etc. Contents:The Lokjins in ThailandThe Mestizos of the Philippines (混血儿米斯蒂佐)The Mingling of Chinese and Javanese Blood — The Peranakan (土生华人)The Tayoke Kabya and the Kokangese in MyanmarThe Konkat-Cen in CambodiaThe Minh Huong (明乡) of VietnamSino-Laos and the Hmong (苗) in LaosBaba (峇峇) and Nyonya (娘惹) in MalaysiaWesternised SingaporeansBrunei: Land of the Smiling People Readership: General readers, academics, professionals and students who are interested in the history and culture of multi-ethnic Chinese descendants in ten Southeast Asian countries, including their language, lifestyle, influence as well as stories on prominent state leaders and business of Chinese heritage. Keywords:Southeast Asia;Mixed-Blood Chinese;CultureKey Features:Brings new knowledge about the Chinese immigrants in Southeast AsiaShowcases the differences between Chinese immigrants and their multi-ethnic descendantsBrings awareness to the large portion of younger Chinese citizens of Southeast Asia

Bruce Lee's art of Jeet Kune Do has ridden the waves of controversy since his death in 1973. From the backyard of Dan Inosanto to the magazine pages of Black Belt and Inside Kung Fu, Jeet Kune Do has become many things to different people. From its early days of being known as Jun Fan Gung Fu to its later incarnation as 'Jeet Kune Do' and then 'JKD Concepts', 'JKD Strategies', 'Combative JKD' and 'Original JKD' (to mention a few) the art has continued to thrive under several different original Lee students. As time marches on and these "pointers to the truth" eventually retire or unfortunately pass on, the world of JKD is left with their students, who have become known as "Second Generation Instructors of Jeet Kune Do." Many of these second generation instructors have had the privilege of training with several of Lee's students rather then merely obtaining one perspective on Lee's art while a select few have chosen the path of solidarity and remain under the guidance of only one instructor of JKD. This book, Descendents of the Dragon, seeks to explore and promote the future generation of Jeet Kune Do instructors and also include instructors from the various off springs of Jeet Kune Do such as Jesse Glover's Non-Classical Gung Fu, Joe Cowles' Wu-Wei Gung Fu and James DeMile's Wing Chun Do. As a historian of Bruce Lee's art and the life of Bruce Lee, I have chosen practitioners to interview that I feel best represent the aforementioned arts and the current state of Jeet Kune Do. Political issues have been kept to a minimum and this book seeks to highlight practitioners who have had the most impact in their respective teachings of Lee's art (s) and visibility via their seminars, books, videos and internet presence. In some cases, the known successor to their instructor was chosen as the most logical practitioner to include in this book. Given the various factions of Jeet Kune Do, I have tried to include as many different students from the various original students available. All copies will be signed and numbered from the author if ordered from this site!Intererviews in the bookRocco Ambrose (student of James DeMile) Frank Burczynski (student of Dan Inosanto and Larry Hartsell) Jerry Beasley (student of Joe Lewis) Richie Carrion (student of Tim Tackett and Bob Bremer) Tommy Carruthers (student of multiple Bruce Lee students) David Cheng (student of multiple Bruce Lee students) Lamar Davis II (student of multiple Bruce Lee students), George Hajnasr (student of multiple Bruce Lee students) Dave Hash (student of multiple Bruce Lee students) Bill Holland (student of multiple Bruce Lee students) Eyel Koren (student of Joe Cowles) Ron Kosakowski (student of Dan Inosanto and Larry Hartsell) John McNabney (student of multiple Bruce Lee students) Ron Ogi (student of James DeMile) Kip Pascal (student of Steve Golden), Burton Richardson (student of Dan Inosanto) Vern Rochon (student of Jerry Poteet) Tony Santiago (student of multiple Bruce Lee students) Brian Stevenson (student of Pat Strong) Tim Tackett (student of Dan Inosanto and Bob Bremer).

An introduction to Chinese mythology. Colourful, sometimes grotesque and imaginative, Chinese mythology is just as moving and compelling as anything to be found in the better-known Egyptian, Greek and Teutonic traditions. In this book, Yuan Ke has culled from ancient sources, rearranged in chronological order and retold the variant versions of the creation of the world, the origins of men, women and animals and the era of the five endlessly warring emperor-gods.

Religious wars mar the glory of the early years of Queen Elizabeth I reign. A descendant of Merlin and King Arthur must step forward and show the world that you can put faith before politics. The glory of the Elizabethan Age is tarnished by the continuing religious conflict begun by Henry VIII. Griffin Kirkwood renounces his title, his lands, his love for the mysterious demon-ridden Roanna, and his magical heritage as a descendant of both King Arthur and the Merlin to become a Catholic priest in France. His twin, Donovan (his mirror image in face and form and rarely more than a thought away) shoulders the responsibilities willingly. He agrees to two arranged-marriages, one after the other, and takes on the outward appearance of whichever religion is dominant to protect all that he loves, but without magic, or the love of his life. Together and separately the twins must fight to guide Queen Elizabeth through the intricate maze of politics and religion. Their spiritual and magical journeys cross each other, oppose, and re-align as they battle internal demons and external threats.
