In this book you'll learn how to achieve change in short, simple training sessions of a minute or less; maximize the effects of natural brain chemistry; know when to call in medical help; and more.

After fleeing the College of Vædic Grammar at Coral Bay with a price on her head for murder, Liv Brodbeck leads her companions into the wilds of the mountain range which separates Lucania and Elden lands to the north. She cannot return to her home in Whitehill without endangering her family there, and King Benedict's soldiers are already in close pursuit. But the lands of the far north are the lands of Liv's ancestors, and deep beneath the Tomb of Celris the legacy her aunt died seeking waits...

Seventeen-year-old Shelby Mayfield sits alone on a bus to Fog Harbor, California. Aside from a few items of clothing, all she has with her is 22 dollars, the ragdoll she’s kept since kindergarten, and the devastating secret she’s been hiding. How long will it be before her family realizes she’s gone? Can anyone see the fresh bruise on her cheek beneath the makeup? Perhaps she was a fool to believe the person she is meeting in this remote little town could help her....

For Liv Brodbeck, magic has changed everything. Cel, the ancestral word of power inherited from her father, now slumbers in the back of her mind. After years of study, the ancient magic of the Old Gods is hers to wield, from brutal, cutting shards of ice to frozen, immovable walls. No longer a mere scullion, she is now an apprentice of the Watchful Guild of Magim, under her teacher, Master Grenfell.

To protect her, Archmagus Jurian sends Liv, Wren, and Arjun with a group of Journeymen to the fortress-city of Akela Kila, in Arjun's homeland of Lendh ka Dakruim. The Well of Bones, grave of the Vædic Lady Costia, is erupting, spewing forth an endless tide of re-animated corpses, and Liv will need to use everything she's learned to survive.

As women, we're expected to be sexy, but not sexual. We're bombarded with conflicting, shame-inducing, and disempowering messages about sex, instead of being encouraged to connect with our true sexual selves. Sexy gets reduced to a performance, leaving us with little to no space to reckon with the complexities of sexuality. In a culture intent on telling you who and how to be, standing in your truth is revolutionary.

With a powerful, second word of power that she can't reveal to anyone, a new bodyguard in Wren Wind Dancer, and political backing from the powerful Summerset family, who are now Dukes of Whitehill, Liv is finally in a position to prepare herself for the impending war against the Lady of Blood. But not everyone at the college is concerned with talent alone—and being a half-Elden bastard is enough to earn her plenty of enemies among the children of the aristocracy who make up the student body.

Taking laughter's revelatory capacity as a starting point, and rooted in Nuar Alsadir's experience as a poet and psychoanalyst, Animal Joy seeks to recover the sensation of being present and embodied.
