A page from the book
Sometimes the bravest thing is letting joy be seen.
Αλλά η Κένα δεν κρυβόταν. Το άυλο έλαμπε δυνατά στην παλάμη της και τύλιγε την Ορμή του Ξεφτεριού: φώτιζε τα πλευρά του μονόκερου, τύλιγε τα κόκαλα των ποδιών του και τις αδύνατες φτερούγες του. Με την Άγκαθα επάνω του, ο γκρίζος μονόκερος εκτόξευε κι αυτός το πέμπτο στοιχείο. Κι ο Σκάνταρ έβλεπε τη θεία του να γελάει, να γελάει πραγματικά· κάποτε είχε πιστέψει πως δεν θα ξανάκουγε ποτέ του αυτόν τον ήχο. Αναμπελ Φ. Στεντμαν.The Skandar novels began with Skandar and the Unicorn Thief, the first book in a planned series about unicorns far from their familiar gentle image.

A taste of the feed
A story that lets you in, versus one that tells you what to think.
I cordially dislike allegory in all its manifestations, and always have done so since I grew old and wary enough to detect its presence. I much prefer history, true or feigned, with its varied applicability to the thought and experience of readers. I think that many confuse ‘applicability’ with ‘allegory’; but the one resides in the freedom of the reader, and the other in the purposed domination of the author.
The Lord of the Rings · J.R.R. Tolkien
Advice that sounds like freedom and costs almost everything to keep.
Let no one rule your mind or body. Take special care that your thoughts remain unfettered, one may be a free man and yet be bound tighter than a slave. Give men your ear, but not your heart. Show respect for those in power, but don’t follow them blindly. Judge with logic and reason, but comment not. Consider none your superior in life. Treat all fairly or they will seek revenge. Be careful with your money. Hold fast to your beliefs and others will listen. Of the affairs of love, my only advice is to be honest. That’s your most powerful tool to unlock a heart or gain forgiveness.
Eragon · Christopher Paolini
The oldest rule of magic is a warning about unintended consequences.
You must not change one thing, one pebble, one grain of sand, until you know what good and evil will follow on that act. The world is in balance, in Equilibrium. A wizard’s power of Changing and Summoning can shake the balance of the world. It is dangerous, that power. It is most perilous. It must follow knowledge, and serve need. To light a candle is to cast a shadow.
A Wizard of Earthsea · Ursula K. Le Guin
