Solo Passage - 13 Quests 13...

Glenda Goodrich

In her search to find healing and meaning in midlife, Glenda Goodrich undertakes a series of wilderness quests into the backcountry of Oregon, Washington, and California to discover what the natural world has to teach her about life, death, happiness, spirituality, and forgiveness. 
This book chronicles the sacred ceremonies that connected Goodrich to the land, wove her into nature’s web, and transformed her from a woman who worked to please others into a woman who forged her own path. It is a brilliant collection of adventures—the touch of coyote fur, a snake’s kiss, a ceremonial blood offering—and a profound reflection on the healing and restorative power of nature. 
"Glenda Goodrich’s mesmerizing memoir of her over twenty years of solo wilderness quests is an exhilarating and tender read. In moving and penetrating prose, she faces her fears, grief, regrets, even transgressions with the trees, rocks and creatures as her companions. Supported by the wisdom of the Medicine Wheel traditions and able guides, she stunningly recreates her sacred ceremonies as she more fully embraces her artist, wise woman self." 
—Wendy Judith Cutler, co-author of Writing Alone Together: Journalling in a Circle of Women for Creativity, Compassion and Connection and co-editor of Finding Home Within: Sanctuary and Solace During Tumultuous Times 
About the Author

Priest In Geylang: The Untold...

Fr. Guillaume Arotçarena

Cosmopolitan Singapore—emblematic of globalised capitalism—usually calls to mind a number of clichés: orderly, clean and green, a shopping and business paradise, and a model of sound economic management. Tourists, journalists and passing businessmen cast an absent-minded glance at the local society, noting that the food is excellent, e-communication works well and armoured tanks are absent on street corners.
But after 17 years living here, the author shows a different side of Singapore: looking at her from the grassroots. Beyond his personal atypical story, he draws with light strokes of the brush, a picture of a warm and generous people, much less passive than one is often given to think. He also describes the difficulties faced by civil society, and tracks the rapid social evolution in the city-state as it is confronted with major challenges: a nose-diving demography, cramped territory with an infrastructure which cannot be extended indefinitely, and massive immigration which is increasingly resented by the local population.
Most of all, Fr. Arotcarena places on record the work and significance of the Geylang Catholic Centre, which makes this priest in Geylang himself a legend.

"In essence, Priest in Geylang is more than a much needed missing piece in the history of Singapore. It is a reflection of how political hypersensitivity and unchecked power can lead to the destruction of something good in civil society. This is a part of history that we might never regain, unless we are able to re-embrace the spirit and dedication of Fr Guillaume Arotçarena and his Geylang Catholic Centre volunteers. This insight is something we might have heard murmured in rumour corridors, but never given the clarity of print from the perspective of an insider... you will find no lack of humour, spirit, and a certain contemplative fortitude."

Tears of Jade: The Cursed Empire

Ferdinand Vilard

Tears of Jade: The Cursed Empire 
Enter the twilight of Tenochtitlán, where the clash of empires ignites a tale of vengeance, guilt, and mystical destiny. Tears of Jade: The Cursed Empire is an immersive historical audiobook that weaves the raw brutality of the Spanish conquest with the haunting allure of Mexica mythology, unraveling the fates of three souls bound by a cursed jade amulet. 
Through vivid prose and rich sensory detail, listeners are plunged into the fall of an empire: the roar of flames consuming sacred temples, the whispers of ancient chants echoing through blood-soaked causeways, and the relentless pulse of a jade relic that holds the power to redeem or destroy. Meet Alonso de Montemayor, a tormented conquistador wrestling with the sins of his blade; Itzel, a fierce Mexica warrior fueled by loss and vengeance; and Luis, their mestizo son, torn between two worlds as he inherits a legacy of blood and prophecy. 
From the smoldering ruins of Ehécatl’s Temple to the revelation of a hidden codex pointing to a lost city, this epic narrative explores the collision of cultures, the cost of conquest, and the fragile hope of renewal. Blending meticulous historical detail with the mysticism of prehispanic lore, Tears of Jade is a gripping journey through a world on the brink—where the past whispers through murals, the present bleeds, and the future hangs on a cursed dawn. 
  
Perfect for fans of historical fiction, Mesoamerican history, and tales of fate and redemption, this audiobook transports you to the heart of 16th-century Mexico—a land of gods, warriors, and empires where every choice echoes through time. Narrated with passion and depth, Tears of Jade: The Cursed Empire is a haunting tribute to a civilization lost and the souls who carry its legacy.
