Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Amazon Back-of-Book DescriptionAstrid was once a cleric of the Earth-until her magic stopped listening.Exiled after a healing spell turns dangerous, Astrid is left with power that surges instead of obeys, answers instead of heals. Cut off from her temple and her god, she sets out in search of control-and the ancient dragon rumored to judge those who dare approach it.At her side walks Thorne, a half-giant guardian sworn to protection and restraint. Quiet, formidable, and patient to a fault, he is the one place Astrid's magic does not fracture. But proximity carries its own risk. Desire sharpens. Boundaries tighten. And every step Astrid takes leaves consequences written into the land itself.To master her power, Astrid must face a truth no blessing can erase: control cannot be forced, restraint cannot be hollow, and power that listens will demand honesty in return. The trial beneath the mountain is not a test of strength-but of what she is willing to refuse.A slow-burn fantasy romance filled with tension, consent, and deliberate restraint, Daughter of Earth and Fire is the first book in an epic series where power is negotiated, intimacy is earned, and love is not denied-but chosen.

Gest. Frontispiz mit Porträt Heisters, 38 gefaltete Kupfertafeln (Tafel 33 als Kopie!), (7 Bl.), 1078 S., (12 Bl. Register). Neuerer Lederband (geringfügig beschabt). S. 447-454 mit kleiner Fehlstelle am Außensteg. Stellenweise geringfügig fleckig oder mit sehr schwachem Wasserrand. Sonst in sehr schöner Erhaltung. DBE IV, 552; NDB VIII, 458/9; Hirsch/H. III, 140/1. - Lorenz Heister, geb. 19.09.1683 und am 18.04.1758 in Bornum bei Helmstedt gestorben, war Anatom und Chirurg. Er begann sein Studium der Medizin 1702 unter Georg Christoph Möller und dem Anatomen Barthold in Gießen, führte seine Ausbildung fort in Amsterdam und Leiden, und promovierte 1708 an der Universität Harderwyk. Vor seiner Laufbahn als o. Prof. an den Univ. Altdorf und Helmstedt, an welchen er u.a. die Dozentur für Anatomie, Chirurgie, die prakt. u. theoretische Medizin, jedoch auch die der Botanik und Chemie im Laufe seiner Karriere innehielt/bekleidete, betätigte er sich ab 1707 als Feldarzt, später als Kriegsarzt der Marlborough-Armee, und sammelte wertvolle praktische Erfahrungen. Diese führten Ihn zu der Erstellung seines erstmals 1718 in Nürnberg erschienenen Werkes "Chirurgie ()", welches mehrfach aufgelegt und in mehrere Sprachen übersetzt wurde. In deutscher Sprache verfasst, sollte dies den Zugang zur Thematik für weniger ausgebildete Ärzte erleichtern. "In seinem berühmten chirurgischen Hauptwerke hat er Alles, was bis dahin auf diesem Gebiete Bleibendes gewonnen war, zusammengefasst und es recht eigentlich zum Eigenthum der Wissenschaft gemacht." (H./H.). Zusammen mit seinem Compendium anatonicum' (1719) galten diese beiden Werke lange Zeit als Hauptlehrbücher ihres Faches und brachten ihm den Ruf ein, einer der bedeutendsten Chirurgen des 18. Jh. gewesen zu sein. "H. ist kein Bahnbrecher, aber er hat durch Prüfung und Verbreitung der von Anderen gefundenen Thatsachen die Wissenschaft gefördert. () Seine Chirurgie verdankt ihren grossen Erfolg dem Umstande, dass H. die besten Quellen benutzte und seinen Lehren überall die anatomische Grundlage zu geben wusste" (H./H.). Sprache: Deutsch.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Runa inherited a longboat, two old runes, and considerably more expenses than anyone thought worth mentioning.Svala has spent years carrying freight, passengers, livestock, and whatever else paid the bills along the coast. Under her old captain, the boat had a reputation for finding its way through difficult jobs. Now Svala belongs to Runa, and keeping her means taking whatever work comes along.There is just one complication: the two worn runes carved into the boat have always worked perfectly.Runa just doesn't know what they mean.With her best friend Freja aboard and Freja's annoyingly observant younger brother Nils along whenever he can manage it, ordinary jobs have a habit of becoming decidedly less ordinary. Lost nets, missing sailors, troublesome cargo, old wrecks, and things that were probably better left at sea all begin pointing toward the same question: What happens when everyone knows what a rune means-but nobody has stopped to ask what it means here?A Longboat with Two Runes is the second Runecasting adventure: a warm, humorous Norse-inspired fantasy about old magic, practical problems, unexpected responsibility, and the considerable expense of owning a boat.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Six years ago, Aerik Skael left the kingdom to get away from his father. Now his father is dead - and considerably more talkative about it.Summoned home for the funeral, Aerik finds a sovereign machine buried beneath the palace still running his father's mind: dry, imperious, eight centimeters tall, and absolutely certain his own brother murdered him. There's just one problem. The dead king edits his own memory. He is the victim, the only witness, and a confessed liar - all at once.With a lawyer who trusts nothing, an ex who trusts him least of all, and an uncle whose crime keeps looking more like mercy the closer Aerik gets, every answer costs something. And the deeper Aerik digs, the clearer it becomes that his father wasn't only hiding a murder. He was hiding a plan. One with Aerik's name on it.The Dead King's Son is Book One of the Dead King Protocol. This item is printed on demand.
