Moonlight Parker thinks she lives in a normal world, unaware of the magic that runs in her blood. Minu Ginger is the victim of a tragic past, in which a war took both her parents. When Moonlight gets a visit from Minu —her newly assigned unicorn— she’s introduced to a world she’s never imagined. Harmony is a magical place in the clouds where unicorns, dragons, and magical beings called Petunians live alike, unknown to humankind. Minu is the ruler of Harmony and has now introduced Moonlight to the future she will lead at Manona High, a school of magic in the clouds. Moonlight is to study the magic in her blood at Manona High, and she learns how to control the powers within her Strixcus —the relic she uses to perform magic. But it all goes downhill when Minu reveals to Moonlight her dark past, and the brother she used to have. Guller Ginger is the monster who struck a war against the rest of Harmony. He rallied up all Dark Unicorns —the bloody creatures who are the only enemies known to Harmony— in an attempt to take over Harmony, and murder his own sister. When bodies start dropping dead at Manona High, Moonlight can’t take it anymore. The abnormal magic, the dead bodies, and the murderer out to get her and her friends are too much for her. But when Guller reveals his return, hell reigns glory over the surface of the clouds, and it's obvious that he’s coming for Moonlight —the only Maroon Petunian alive other than Guller himself. The hunt for the Noble Ruby begins, and now Moonlight has to stay and fight. It's a race against time, magic, and Guller himself. Bodies drop dead, betrayal is in the air, and history is bound to repeat itself.

This summary is an essential filament of what's to come in the series. Intergalactic Nebula Wars is a theoretical book with some factual theories and fictional ones that aren't proven yet. Intergalactic Nebula Wars: The Initial Attack on the Forefathers' Bases is about newly developed star systems warring with an alien race called the Inquestorians, who strive to conquer galaxies to worship the overlord Faloosh. Faloosh is bent on conquering galaxies and having the conquered universes worship him as their master or destroy them throughout his ogala games. Meanwhile, these new and old galaxies have certain governmental officials through the clones that must find a way to kill off Faloosh and his siblings or turn his siblings and offspring into good, fighting Faloosh himself. Will the hybrid species from old and new galaxies kill off Faloosh, turning his siblings against him, or will Faloosh conquer the forefathers and destroy all galaxies as they worship him? Only one will know throughout the ten-book series. We flash back and forth in time like a dramatic movie similar to the famous pulp fiction.

Recent advances in research show that the distinctive features of high medieval civilization began developing centuries earlier than previously thought. The era once dismissed as a "Dark Age" now turns out to have been the long morning of the medieval millennium: the centuries from AD 500 to 1000 witnessed the dawn of developments that were to shape Europe for centuries to come. In 2004, historians, art historians, archaeologists, and literary specialists from Europe and North America convened at Harvard University for an interdisciplinary conference exploring new directions in the study of that long morning of medieval Europe, the early Middle Ages. Invited to think about what seemed to each the most exciting new ways of investigating the early development of western European civilization, this impressive group of international scholars produced a wide-ranging discussion of innovative types of research that define tomorrow's field today. The contributors, many of whom rarely publish in English, test approaches extending from using ancient DNA to deducing cultural patterns signified by thousands of medieval manuscripts of saints' lives. They examine the archaeology of slave labor, economic systems, disease history, transformations of piety, the experience of power and property, exquisite literary sophistication, and the construction of the meaning of palace spaces or images of the divinity. The book illustrates in an approachable style the vitality of research into the early Middle Ages, and the signal contributions of that era to the future development of western civilization. The chapters cluster around new approaches to five key themes: the early medieval economy; early medieval holiness; representation and reality in early medieval literary art; practices of power in an early medieval empire; and the intellectuality of early medieval art and architecture. Michael McCormick's brief introductions open each part of the volume; synthetic essays by accomplished specialists conclude them. The editors summarize the whole in a synoptic introduction. All Latin terms and citations and other foreign-language quotations are translated, making this work accessible even to undergraduates. The Long Morning of Medieval Europe: New Directions in Early Medieval Studies presents innovative research across the wide spectrum of study of the early Middle Ages. It exemplifies the promising questions and methodologies at play in the field today, and the directions that beckon tomorrow.

This study traces the genealogy of Saint Perpetua’s story with a straightforward yet previously overlooked question at its center: How was Perpetua remembered and to what uses was that memory put? One of the most popular and venerated saints from 200 CE to the thirteenth century, the story of Saint Perpetua was retold in dramatically different forms across the European Middle Ages. Her story begins in the arena at Carthage: a 22-year-old nursing mother named Vibia Perpetua was executed for being a Christian, leaving behind a self-authored account of her time in prison leading up to her martyrdom. By turns loving mother, militant gladiator, empathic young woman, or unattainable ideal, Saint Perpetua’s story ultimately helps to trace the circulation of texts and the transformations of ideals of Christian womanhood between the third and thirteenth centuries.

Her Life Historical offers a major reconsideration of one of the most popular narrative forms in late medieval England—the lives of female saints—and one of the period's primary modes of interpretation—exemplarity. With lucidity and insight, Catherine Sanok shows that saints' legends served as vehicles for complex considerations of historical difference and continuity in an era of political crisis and social change. At the same time, they played a significant role in women's increasing visibility in late medieval literary culture by imagining a specifically feminine audience. Sanok proposes a new way to understand exemplarity—the repeated injunction to imitate the saints—not simply as a prescriptive mode of reading but as an encouragement to historical reflection. With groundbreaking originality, she argues that late medieval writers and readers used religious narrative, and specifically the legends of female saints, to think about the historicity of their own ethical lives and of the communities they inhabited. She explains how these narratives were used in the fifteenth century to negotiate the urgent social concerns occasioned by political instability and dynastic conflict, by the threat of heresy and the changing status of public religion, and by new kinds of social mobility and forms of collective identity. Her Life Historical also offers a fresh account of how women came to be visible participants in late medieval literary culture. The expectation that they formed a distinct audience for saints' lives and moral literature allowed medieval women to surface in the historical record as book owners, patrons, and readers. Saints' lives thereby helped to invent the idea of a gendered audience with a privileged affiliation and a specific response to a given narrative tradition.
