Book Description
A book of wisdom teachings and rituals that invoke ancient Egyptian deities to awaken human consciousness
• Provides guided shamanic visualizations to invoke 26 of the most significant gods
• Takes the reader through shamanic portals of death, rebirth, and illumination
• Reconciles internal conflict through a sacred marriage of heart and mind
In
Shamanic Mysteries of Egypt, Nicki Scully and Linda Star Wolf renew humanity’s connection to the ancient gods of Egypt, the
neteru. Voices from these divine ancestors remind us of the healing power of the heart, and call us to bring their consciousness into the present to help us remember our true nature as divine humans with sacred purpose. The authors provide rituals, meditations, and rites of passage to help us meet our personal and planetary challenges with grace, wisdom, and love. The shamanic initiations provided are invoked, directly experienced, and transformed into embodied wisdom that awakens consciousness and illumines the intelligence of the heart.
Scully and Star Wolf focus their rituals on 26 of the primary divine entities that preside over the ancient mysteries whose roots are in Old Kingdom and pre-historic Egypt. This fresh interpretation of ancient mysteries unites the energies of Thoth and Anubis to guide us through the current cycle of Earth changes and to help us remember who we really are at heart. Through these passages, Anubis lives up to his ancient title as the Opener of the Way, and Thoth as the Architect of Higher Learning. Together they evoke their power to unite heart and mind in the sacred marriage that brings transformation, renewal, and the awakening of consciousness.

Book Description
The day before Claidi's wedding, she is kidnapped and taken to a mountaintop palace in the shadow of an unearthly star. Wolf Star Rise is the stuff of nightmares, with rooms that change and move for no apparent reason. The only human there is Prince Venn. Neither Claidi nor Venn knows why they are at the Rise. Can the two escape from the maze of taboo, repression, and mystery surrounding both of their long-lost families?
The Claidi Journals are "a diverting escapade for fans of Karen Cushman's Catherine, Called Birdy and Gail Carson Levine's Ella Enchanted." (Kirkus Reviews)
Book Description
The U.S. Merrimack was the finest battleship in Earth's fleet, able to withstand the best the Palatine Empire could throw at them. Only her sister ship, the Monitor, was her equal. So when the Palatine forces secretly captured Monitor, Merrimack's security was compromised-and that was just the opening salvo of a whole new stage of war between Palatine and Earth.

Great punchy sci-fi sequal.......2007-05-03
This is a great, fast paced sci-fi book that carries all the best elements of a great story: Great plot, great characterization, a fast-easy-stylish punchy prose or writing style that makes it delicious to chew on. There are also a couple surprise plot twists and turns that are like a knock out punch coming out of the dark. Very fun. This book isnt quite as good as the first in the series, so my actual rating is a 4 to 4.5, but it is still great and a great component of this fabulous series.
*Read this book if you like action-adventure sci-fi with intriguing plot! Great series. Cant wait for the 3rd book coming in 11/07
Broken English throughout Wolf Star.......2007-04-19
I wonder if it's some kind of statement of style or whether the copy editor was absent or negligent, but the broken English and fragmented sentences throughout this novel greatly diminish its value. Author Meluch omits the sentence subject on page after page, paragraph after paragraph. While this might be overlooked in a work of fan fiction or a new writer's work, here it's very much out of place. Take a look and see what I mean:
From Chapter 33:
"After a slow, agonizing while, sounds of weapons fire diminished within the ship. Did not mean the enemy was on the run. You still heard enough scritching. Meant the gorgons were overwhelming the computer controls."
In one scene near the story's end, she even has Caesar, leader of the new Roman star empire, speaking in this manner. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I prefer reading complete sentences. This book severely lacks them and suffers for it.
Still a good read.......2007-04-09
I started reading this book with mixed feelings, having seen the reviews here about it. Some people felt betrayed by the ending in the first book, and almost had to fight to read the second book. Some only read the second book because they had already purchased it.
I liked this book very much. The way she shows just how completely history can be changed, from the global, epic scale of events down to the insignificant minutae of someone's life - it was almost awe inspiring to follow, remembering from the first book how it had been previously, and seeing what she wrote now.
I agree that some of the characters don't seem as "lovable" in the second book, but then again that was part of the whole point I believe. What happens to us makes us who we are, and if something had happened differently, we would be colored differently by those incidents. She does a great job of weaving this new reality into being. I can't wait to see where she goes with the next book in the series.
Excellent.......2007-01-19
I have always considered Rebecca Meluch to be one of the very best science fiction writers working today. I cannot understand why she has not received more acclaim. Wolf Star continues the series begun in The Myriad. At the end of the first book, an escape through a wormhole and back into the past slightly reset the current Universe. The Hive, the main enemy through the main section of The Myriad, seemed not to exist, and the Roman Empire was America's greatest enemy. In this book, the Hive re-appears, and it becomes apparent that the backstory of The Myriad is, with slight changes, the story of Wolf Star. As usual, Rebecca Meluch's characters are larger than life, well drawn, interesting, each with his own unique personality.
The plot is engaging, though I am not sure why she chose to write these books in what is essentially reverse order, the end of this book being the beginning of the last. Since we already have a pretty good idea of what is going to happen, a good deal of suspense is lost. Nevertheless, the details are exciting, the action engrossing and the characters sympathetic. A terrific story, and I'm looking forward to the next.
Wolf Star will not disappoint!.......2007-01-16
With the twist at the end of The Myriad, Meluch in essence, if not in reality, sends Merrimack back in time, so we have the opportunity to see a version of what transpired up to the point at which we meet the crew of the Merrimack at the start of The Myriad. All of the characters are back in Wolf Star, some with amended roles, and the story covers a first encounter with The Hive, gives a taste of war and competition with Palatine, and illustrates how the truce between Palatine and Earth may have come about and how Augustus ends up on Merrimack.
Just when I was beginning to think no other character could come close to the perfections of Niki Thea and David Tow, in barges TR Steele to demand consideration. He may not be refined, but I just can't shake him - I hope he'll be with us for the duration of this series. The character of John Farragut is expanded in this installment, and as others have noted, it would be nice to continue his interaction with Augustus in the coming books.
Obviously there is much more adventure awaiting the crew of the Merrimack - the more, the better, if you ask me. The wait for Book #3 is going to be agonizing. I'm going to have to go back and re-read all of her others to stave off the withdrawal symptoms...
Book Description
The first work in David Gerrold's Star Wolf trilogy, this tale pits the human members of the Star Wolf space vessel against the superhuman Morthan crew. Captain Jonathan Korie, hampered by the loss of most of the human fleet to the Morthans and a nearly disabled ship of his own, faces the Morthan threat driven by the need for survival and the desire for revenge. A classic of military science fiction, the Star Wolf trilogy combines rapid action with powerful studies of military character. This replaces 0553264664.

Nothing to see here.......2007-03-14
I was inspired by Gerrold's work in the SF TV industry to check out this book with my book club here in the Pacific Northwest, but though we all enjoy the guilty pleasure of Star Trek, this book wasn't worth the read. We found it lacked strength in characterization, believability in character motivations, and especially did not suspend our disbelief with the plot line. The main villain is a superhuman cannibal (tired) named Cinnabun, or something, that melodramatically sneers every line. The plot just doesn't cut it with everyone unfairly blaming the crew of the last surviving starship in a space massacre for something ridiculous. The book is a fast read, thankfully, but unsatisfying. Maybe we'll try his much ballyhoo'd Chtorr series.
You didn't fill out your reports!.......2004-10-16
The logic in this story is odd, and unintentionally funny. Here is an example. Early on the ship is disabled, computer inoperative, captain in a coma and dying, no star drive, and stuck in enemy territory. The first officers dilemma? Can he assume command because the computer isn't online to validate it. So, in this world it doesn't matter that the situation is dire or not...you must fill out the proper paperwork! What makes it even odder is how this "dilemma" is handled later.
The transitions between chapters is a bit abrupt and doesn't flow either. In one chapter the main character is combative and depressed. Next chapter he is organizing a party.
Another problem is that the main character is never described. That is, we don't know if he is black, white, red, or pink. Is he short, tall, human, or squid? The author goes into boring detail on what the ship looks like but nothing on the main character.
Of course there is another problem; the characters are all cardboard and have the typical cliché's throughout the story but no depth.
The main problem though is that the story is three acts and only one act really matters. The first act just drags on and the second act adds to the silly concepts of the first. The final act isn't too bad, and hence this reviewer gives the story 2 stars instead of one.
I wouldn't say it's not worth reading, but don't expect must entertainment value.
Good, Hard SF.......2004-02-21
This is the way Star Trek the Next Generation should have been written. David Gerrold cuts thru the New Age, wimpy crap that plagues the modern TV series and delivers a book that gives the hard edge a star ship needs on the frontier where the bad guys would rather eat you than talk.
The book opens with the LS-1187 joining a convoy on the Silk Road. Only as soon as they join the ships, the Morthan Solidarity attacks and rips the heart out of the fleet. Commander Korie has mortally wounded captain, an untested crew and a severely damaged ship. On top of that he has the biggest warship in a 100 parsecs stalking him - the Dragon Lord. He performs the near impossible and brings his ship home, only to be sent out again (this time under Captain Hardesty) on a suicide mission.
A great story and fast read.
Takes Star Trek style story to the next level.......2001-10-01
For those of you who don't know, Gerrold is the unoffical co creator of Star Trek The Next Generation. After reading this novel it made me think of how much better the characters might have been had he been writing the Next Generation TV show. All of the characters in this novel take the Star Trek theme to a more realistic level.
A great "star-trek" style novel !!!.......1999-10-03
Gerrold is a master story-teller,this book is great example of "space opera" science-fiction. The story is about a young first officer on is last voyage before taking command of his ship,the book also speaks about the first days of a terrible war,and the struggle of a crew and his captain to engage and destroy an enemy vessel in order to gain a name for their ship. If you like true sci-fi stories and well-built characters you must read this book. Well done David,we hope to read more about Korie and his crew.

To successfully travel the shamanic path, one must develop an understanding of the four elements that compose human beings: spirit, emotion, body, and mind. Wolf Moondance uses her rainbow medicine wheel to build a new interpretation of the vision quest based on the traditional foundations of Native American shamanic traditions. Star Medicine, the third book in her Rainbow Medicine series, focuses on the southern portion of the rainbow wheel, the domain of emotions. In this book, Moondance teaches ceremonies and dances of the South that can be performed by anyone with the desire and dedication. These dances are the way to spiritual visions, where lessons that show the magic of emotion are learned. Moondance delves into the spirit world alongside readers as she lights the path to discovery and connects visions with poetic accounts of her personal experiences on the rainbow wheel.
Book Description
A Native American shaman draws on both her traditions and her training in modern psychology to present a new approach to your emotional life. Seven ceremonies help you find inner strength and peace. To prepare you for your inner journey, complete and detailed instructions are provided for creating a sacred space where you are encircled by a wheel made of cornmeal and cleansed by the softly rising smoke of smoldering herbs. There you bring your spirit journal and other sacred tools, all clearly explained, and venture into vision with lessons from the entities of the spirit world. Each chapter features a shamanic story, a ceremony, and a vision to help you become more deeply in touch with the "dance of life." 192 pages, 23 b/w illus., 6 x 9.

Shianti Magic.......2000-04-01
The "World of Lone Wolf" series was, without doubt, the most enjoyable role-playing gamebook series I ever played.
The combat/survival system is similar to that employed by the Lone Wolf series, but with the added concept of "willpower" points, (which represent, essentially, Grey Star's magic resources). The player selects five of seven magical powers to use before starting the adventure.
The series is lavishly illustrated by Paul Bonner's artwork, and each volume contains a colour map of South Magnamund.
I was quite young when I played these adventures, and I would wait breathlessly and impatiently for each new volume to come out. The world which Ian Page and Joe Dever create is romantic and captivating. All the magic creatures in the story are unique to the world of Magnamund - no elves or dragons - which adds the special feeling of the books.
Grey Star always has companions in his adventures - giants, theives, ape-men (sorry, Kundi), but the most notable is the wytch girl, Tanith, who continues throughout the whole series.
Great intro of a four book seies.......1998-11-27
If you want to get this book (which is a good idea if you like fantasy), be sure to get the other 3 books! Very adventurous and fun.
A great introduction to the four-book series!.......1997-04-17
A wonderfully new exotic atmosphere greets the reader in the 1st book of the Grey Star series.
Set in the world of Southern Magnamund, a world away from the adventures of the hero Lone Wolf, whose series has won numerous awards and encompasses three mini-series as well as off-shoots, Grey Star the Wizard begins with Grey Star sailing from the Isle of Lorn, where his mentors, the Shianti wizards, have self-exiled themselves. Many years ago the Shianti created a magical artefact called the Moonstone, but this relic disrupted the balance of the world of Magnamund, and the Shianti were forced to seal it into a Trianon in the plane of Daziarn as well as remain forever on the Isle of Lorn.
Some time later, a great wizard called Shasarak rose to power. Aided by the Shadakine, great warriors from the Sadai Desert, Shasarak brutally destroyed all major nations of Southern Magnamund, creating a vast empire. The Shianti watched with fear as Shasarak grew in power, and someday the fates have promised that the evil tyrant will cross the Sea of Dreams to the Isle of Lorn and fight with the Shianti for total domination once and for all...
Aided by seven sisters, the Shadakine Wytches, who possess mastery of animal language, evil magic, and the Kazim Stones, magical hearts of creatures of stone, Shasarak also mastered vast legions of daemons and spirits, and has ruthlessly persecuted the pilgrims of the Shianti and other religions. Once, long ago, Shasarak had control of a wondrous but terrible artefact called the Sunstone, a gem that had the power of the sun, but its abuse led to the destruction of an entire civilization...with power like that the Wytch-King has all of the human nations in his iron grip.
The Shianti, unable to help, prayed for assistance. And on the stormy night when Shasarak was crowned King of the Shadakine Empire, a ship ran aground. Nobody remained alive, save a small child, which the Shianti named Grey Star, for the streak of grey in the child's hair. The Shianti cannot help mankind, but Grey Star, being human, can..
