Product Description

Here is the tragic tale of the rise and fall of Camelot -

but seen through the eyes of Camelot's women:

The devout Gwenhwyfar, Arthur's Queen;

Vivane, High priestess of Avalon and the Lady of the Lake;

Morgaine, possessor of the sight....

A story:

to light a faded tapestry to show threads of a more brilliant hue, thus drawing the eye and satisfying the heart with unrecognised hidden depths.

The voice of the book is not limited to Morgaine, also represented are Gwenhwyfar, Morgause, Igraine, Vivian and Nimue, all contributing their own often humourous, often heart-rending, maddening and unforgettable accounts of reality in their own thoughts and words. This book forges a feeling of having re-discovered nearly every woman you have ever known and realise you never really forgot....

Twilight...to my surprise I enjoyed the film.

Well, I'm not normally into watching vampire films, but upon hearing

'Twilight' was a love story, I could not resist. Oh that romantic side :) Of course, my daughter helped convince me. I must say, I wasn't disappointed. Yup, it's a chick flick, has no blood/ horrid scenes, defo a romance. Never thought it would be to my taste, but I cant wait for the follow up 'new moon' in Nov' this year. I liked the different spin, and feel it's quite a brave step to try and change something so set in this genre.

The film derived from a series of Twilight books -

NOTE: for teens really.

'Twilight'

Book Saga

Product Description:
When seventeen-year-old Isabella Swan moves to Forks, Washington to live with her father she expects that her new life will be as dull as the town itself.

In spite of her awkward manner and low expectations, she finds that her new classmates are drawn to this pale, dark-haired new girl in town. But not, it seems, the Cullen family.

These five adopted brothers and sisters obviously prefer their own company and will make no exception for Bella. Bella is convinced that Edward Cullen in particular hates her, but she feels a strange attraction to him, although his hostility makes her feel almost physically ill.

He seems determined to push her away - until, that is, he saves her life from an out of control car. Bella will soon discover that there is a very good reason for Edward's coldness. He, and his family, are vampires - and he knows how dangerous it is for others to get too close.

The voice

I hear your voice on the windAnd I here you call out my name...

'Listen my child!' you say to me,'I am The Voice of your history,Be not afraid- come follow me,

Answer my call and I'll set you free.'

I am The Voice in the wind and the pouring rain,I am The Voice of your hunger and pain;

I am The Voice that always is calling you,I am The Voice- I will remain.

I am The Voice in the fields when the summer's gone,

The dance of the leaves when the autumn winds blow;

Ne'er do I sleep throuought all the cold winter long;

I am the force that in springtime will grow.

I am The Voice of the past that will always be,

Filled with my sorrow and blood in my fields;I am The Voice of the future....

Bring me your peace, bring me your peace, and my wounds they will heal.
I am The Voice in the wind and the pouring rain,

I am The Voice of your hunger and pain;

I am The Voice that always is calling you,I am The Voice.

I am The Voice of the past that will always beI am The Voice of your hunger and pain;

I am The Voice of the future...

I am The Voice...

I am The Voice...

I am The Voice....
