Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Cristobal Bull is a fun story of perseverance on the journey of finding one's identity. It shows us if we continue to pursue our dreams, we will reach a point where we know this is what we were meant to be. That point is a place of power for each of us in our lives, including your children.Relevance to Today's WorldWe all find ourselves on a journey and our life experiences make us who we are. The road leads us to achievements, and sometimes those achievements leave us empty inside. If we keep progressing forward and making new choices, we can find ourselves.Have you noticed in your 30s or 40s that you look back and think, If only I had known.? If so, reflect back on that time. You believe that if you had known a specific nugget of information, it would have prevented some pain and suffering from occurring in your life. As a parent, you will think the same thing about parenting. If only I would have addressed this earlier in life, my child wouldn't be where he or she is now. The Cristobal Bull story will plant seeds in your child to help them find their identity, connect with their dreams, and find their place of power in life. Not connecting with dreams or one's identity creates issues in life. The story aligns perfectly for what you want for your children.

A collection of short stories with snippets of life, introducing you to characters that will take you inside their hearts and soulsto help you learn a little something about yourself. Richard Beales (former editor/Brantford Expositor)Message from the Author: Many of these stories appeared in my newspaper column in the Brantford Expositor from 2006 to 2009. I was overwhelmed with the reception my stories received from the readers, and appreciated all the magnificent comments that were sent my way. After my column was cancelled, I published the first version of From the Heart, and it was so successful, I have decided to publish a second edition. Many of the original stories are there, plus some new ones. Of course, the book has travelled far beyond the borders of my home town now I would like to thank everyone who inspired my stories by telling me snippets of their life, which I took and created a new tale based upon some truth and some fiction. Other stories are gleaned from my observations of life around me.From the Heart are narratives from my heart to yours.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Revelations - something revealed: an enlightening disclosure. Basarab is overwhelmed with the situations at hand: Samara's murder o the homeless man, which is bringing the local police to his door, and the murder of Randy's wife, Katalin, which demands a trial sure to reveal some of the vampire clans deepest and darkest secrets.Deep in the mountains of Transylvania, a great sorceress whispered of throughout the centuries decides to make her move. Who is she Basarab and the vampires are about to find out.'Night's Revelations' continues the story of Count Basarab Musat and his family, peeling back layers of the past to make shocking revelations - of both past and present!An Excerpt.PrologueAdrianna Daciana, better known as the Dark Wolf or the Black Witch, sat behind an oversized cedar desk. There was a smile on her face. She had waited a long time for this moment, but the time had never been right. Now, she felt she would be able to accomplish what she had dreamed of for centuries--revenge for what Dracula had done to her mother. A cloud passed over her eyes as she thought of her beautiful mother, of the story she had listened to over and over again when she was a child.'He was not a handsome man, but there was something irresistible about him. I found him on a trail one day; he'd been hunting on my mountain and had fallen and hurt his leg. He was unable to walk, so I brought him back to my cabin and mixed some herbs and put them in a drink for him. He was dreadfully weak; it was several days before he could put any pressure on his leg and another couple weeks before he could actually walk on it.'Of course, he needed to be bathed, and I had no choice but to strip him of his clothing to do so. I was shocked when I saw the scars on his body. They were like a map of destruction. Some appeared to be battle scars, easily detected, but others.'Adrianna's mother always paused at this point and wept before she continued.'The other markings were different. I recognized them as torture scars, and I asked him from where they had come. He told me he had been a captive in the Turkish Court for a number of years during his youth. His father had sent him and his brother, Radu, there as a guarantee that he would not attack the Turks. Dracula's brother was given a luxurious room, but it was one to which the Sultan's son had plenty of access. Radu was a pretty boy; Dracula was not.'The Sultan decided Dracula had other attributes, and he started teaching him the methods of Turkish torture, many of which he performed on Dracula. I cried when he told me some of what was done to him, but he would gently brush away my tears with his fingers and tell me it made him more of a man. And he remained a man, he would say to me. He never allowed one of the big Turks to violate him as they did Radu.'But I could tell, sweet Adrianna, he was tainted in other ways. Many were the nights he cried out and thrashed about in the bed, and I would crawl in beside him and hold him tight to me and tell him all would be well. I dared not use any of my spells on him for fear he learned I was a witch, especially after I discovered he was Dracula, the king of Transylvania. Witches were outlawed, and I had seen too many of my sisters burned at the stake to open my mouth and end up the same.'Then, one day, I caught him looking at me differently. Lust was in his eyes. He asked me to bathe him again, saying he felt dirty and sweaty. I told him I'd just bathed him the day before, but he smiled and said he sorely needed another bath. I felt his eyes on me as I heated the water and carried it to the bed where he lay. As I took the cloth and began sponging his chest, he grabbed hold of my wrist and pulled me to him.'Another faraway look would creep into her mother's eyes at this point; she would pause and smile, and touch her lips with her fingers.'Oh, Adrianna, he was so gentle, but his tongue lit a fire in the pit of my stomach.…
