Beschreibung

In Robert E. Howard's "Black Colossus," readers are immersed in a vivid tapestry of sword and sorcery set in an ancient, quasi-historical world. The narrative follows the adventurous protagonist, Kull of Atlantis, as he faces perilous challenges and confronts the monstrous cult of the Black Priest of Yogg, revealing a clash between civilization and chaos. Howard's distinctive prose combines rich, evocative descriptions with fast-paced action, showcasing his talent for creating compelling characters and immersive settings. The work stands out in the wider context of early 20th-century fantasy literature, a period marked by a growing fascination with the mythical and the heroic. Robert E. Howard, renowned for creating the iconic character of Conan the Barbarian, was deeply influenced by his Southern upbringing and the tumultuous historical context of the early 1900s. His passions for pulp fiction and mythology inspired a lifelong commitment to world-building and storytelling, leading him to explore themes of heroism, solitude, and the eternal struggle between good and evil. "Black Colossus" is a testament to his skill in weaving intricate narratives that reflect broader existential dilemmas. This book is highly recommended for enthusiasts of classic fantasy and readers interested in the genre's evolution. Howard's gripping storytelling and timeless themes will captivate those seeking adventure, rich characterization, and the exploration of the heroic spirit against overwhelming odds.

    Every girl at the age of eighteen, if left unmated, is volunteered for the Alphas Hunt. Hazel is no exception and also the only one who sees it not as a chance to find a strong Alpha to take care of her, but rather as a ceremony that strips you of your free will and sends you out into the woods to be hunted like a deer.
     
    If she is claimed she will be his. If she is not, she will return in shame and be shunned from her pack.
     
    Hazel knows the ways of the Alphas, being the daughter of a Beta, but what she doesn't count on is the presence of the Lycan King. The leader of all is participating in his first-ever hunt, and she is his prey.

    Even as a working adult, Sarasa Ichinokura suffers from an unshakable fatigue that’s plagued her since childhood. She goes to bed one night, exhausted from her office job, and encounters a goddess(?) who informs her that her perpetual lack of energy is actually due to a deficit of “mana.” Then, without any further explanation or time to process what’s happening to her, Sarasa is thrust into a fantasy world!
     
    She awakens in the body of a ten-year-old girl in a strange land filled with flying beasts and oversized wolves. She accordingly prepares for the worst, but a monster hunter named Nelly takes her in.

She seeks to stand on her own in this scary new world—and that’s going to mean learning magic.

    I am Amalthea Jade, the daughter of the prestigious Matthew and Thea Jade. My parents died in a rogue attack, and the only hope I had was my chosen mate, Blake Cohl.I thought I got all the happiness in the world when I got married to him, but on my wedding night, he brought his fated mate to our wedding room. The mate, he can't reject.I would've let go of her if she hadn't provoked me, and naturally, I did what anyone would've done in a situation like this. I attacked her.There's a rule that if any person attacks another person without a reason, then he/she is punished with 20 whippings, but since I am the luna, I was given another option, apologize to my husband's fated mate.Bow down and apologize to the person who took away my happiness? He must be joking.Rather than bowing, I took not 20 but 50 whippings to remember this humiliation for the rest of my life.Feeling tired, I decided to leave, as my father also thought that Blake was the better alpha than me. But as I was leaving, I came to know that my parents' deaths weren't just a normal rogue attack case. It was more than that.The plan was simple. Avenge my parents, the humiliation I suffered, and start afresh, but what am I supposed to do when the Lycan king starts tailing me?How the hell am I supposed to react when he says he wants to marry me, and that he will destroy everything in my world if I keep refusing him? Not to mention how he hates me."I can't marry you because I hate all the males with the alpha syndrome, and I am already married," I barked at him."And? I don't see why that's a problem. Let me make it clear, Amalthea. I want you, and I will do anything to get you, even if it means I will have to turn this world upside down," He smirked.How am I supposed to get on with my plans like this? Not to mention the rogue head who is strangely interested in my matters more than I am.Oh, and did I mention I was in the process of awakening my powers that even I didn't know of?
