This book examines how modern French fiction writers have appropriated the ogre figure in order to evoke violence in all its voracity, as well as destructive time, which eats away the moments of our lives as the prototypical ogre of Western literature, Cronus, devoured his own children. The ogre is a ubiquitous figure that appears not only in mythology and literature, but in real life. For French authors haunted by the horrors of World War II, it symbolizes the abominations of the Nazis and their French collaborators, whose memory has been rekindled in recent years, initiating a national malaise that historians have come to call the "Vichy Syndrome." For other writers, the ogre is the sexual deviate who preys upon the innocent. This ogre too has roots in recent history: it began to appear in the 1970s, coinciding with the rise of French feminism, when violence towards women and children finally began to be openly confronted. Jonathan F. Krell teaches modern and contemporary French literature and business French at the University of Georgia.

Amethyst, the Ogre Witch-Queen, seeks to enslave Jacob, last of the Foresters, and usurp his powers. He obtains the aid of the Seers receiving a new staff with the power to defeat her. Hamill, least experienced of the seers, is charged with the task of gathering support from the dwarves and others. Darkness covers the land; violent storms and sickness strike at the heart of the Yield preventing former allies sending aid. Hamill turns to his friend, Jon and together they travel north to the Mountain City of the Colossi. Javelin, Archer and Trapper, three of the dwarves who fought with them against Ebon, rally to their cause, along with Braun, the Metal-master. This brave little band head south to meet the forester but Hamill did not count on having to battle with his feelings for Sylvia, an elf from the Ward who travels with them to Winters Hold. The journey is fraught with danger as they encounter opposition at every turn. Separated, they are captured by the ogres but Sylvia's ingenuity enables them to escape only for Hamill and the dwarves to fall foul of a trap. Facing Amethyst at last they challenge her in a combined effort; she summons the power that has lain dormant within her; a power that would have consequences for them all. Witness their struggles as they battle for the safety of the land and all who dwell in it. Will they finally subdue Amethyst saving them from a new dark age or will she become Witch-Queen over the land? Part two of the Golden Tome takes you on a breathtaking journey equal to the first. With your favorite characters from part one, Time Will Tell', it will have you spellbound and yearning for more.

Seething with vengeance cultivated over two thousand years of captivity, Lord Caelwas breaks from his Faerie-mandated prison and enslaves a sect of humanity and inflames them onto a course of destruction. So begins Pilgrimage of the Faerie. Through immense travail, the young but now burdened Baytel, Druid of the Citadel, only gradually becomes aware of this powerful evil now at loose. With word that his love Tira and her friend-in-battle Delphinade are imprisoned in darkness, Druid Baytel is torn between love and loyalty to the Citadel. As cross-currents of missions verge on failure, suspicion undermines devotion, and conflicting loyalties emerge, Baytel's battle-tested Companions unite in response, realizing they must employ all their intelligence, courage, good humor, and loyalty to face forces they do not yet comprehend. And as the land itself rumbles ominously. What happened to the Tree Faeries? And where is Baytel? In Pilgrimage of the Faerie, Lewis G. Gazoul, author of Druids of the Faerie, creates a completely engaging world filled with emotions and understandings that ring strikingly true today. His engagingly distinctive characters embody both diverse and universal personalities in this novel of action and purpose.

Generational diversity has always existed, but it has now intensified due to the recent technology explosion, the early entry of younger generations into the workforce, and the late exit of Baby Boomers from the workforce. Many mangers have to deal with several generations on the same team. It requires a deeper understanding of management and better understanding of people skills to handle a diverse staff. In order to get the best from the entire team, it is important to satisfy their needs while retaining individual talent. Surveys indicate that fully 60% of employers report tensions between employees of different generations. Join Alex Steele as he uncovers the challenging differences between these generations and develops a game plan to lead a better team. Along the way, he discovers not only the skill to lead, but the skill to live. The journey is deep-rooted in pain and darkness at times. In the end he emerges, not only with a better understanding of people, but a better understanding of life.
