![]() ![]() ![]() Shackleton and his crew members needed to cross the mountainous island in order to reach a whaling station on the northern side. Landing them on the southern side of their destination, their journey was not over. The journey took 16 days across one of the stormiest stretches of ocean in the world, becoming what is one of the most astonishing small boat journeys in history. He undertook a mission with five of his crew to cross almost 800 miles of rough seas to get to South Georgia, in the hopes to reach an inhabited whaling station at Grytviken. With no chance of rescue, rations nearly gone and stranded far from civilization and any chance of ship encounters, Shackleton realized that the chances of rescue were slim and devised a plan. After 497 days across rough, frozen seas, they made they made landfall on Elephant Island, setting up camp in a place they called Point Wild, after Frank Wild who had scouted the location. His ability to read his men, understand their emotions and keep up morale was remarkable. What kept the crew going is a tribute to Shackleton and his leadership. Hauling their lifeboats across the frozen landscape, the men were forced into the small crafts due to the thinning ice, camping on large ice floes to rest. Isolated on a drifting pack of ice, the men marched westward to where they thought they would find the nearest land. ![]() ![]() ![]() IGN Comics: What made you want to work on Joker?

Our reasoning for talking to the artist after the release of the book is simple - we wanted to talk about his approach to scenes and characters, and we wanted readers to have a chance to see the book before we started breaking down some of the artistic decisions behind it. ![]() ![]() Teresa urges us to start on the path to transformation by “considering our soul to be like a castle made entirely out of a diamond or of very clear crystal, in which there are many rooms.” We are meant to occupy every room or “dwelling place” with God, and thereby to become the radiant beings which he intends. That emphasis in turn inclines us toward thinking of ourselves as nothing, and to mistake our lostness and vileness for nothingness, a mere vacuum, rather than seeing it as the desolation of a splendid ruin. ![]() Emphasis upon the wickedness and neediness of the human being tends to submerge our awareness of our greatness and our worth to God. ![]() The first thing that Teresa helped me with was appreciation of the dignity and value-indeed, the vast reality-of the human soul. I think it very likely that you will experience the same refreshing shock as I did when you read this book. The book provided instruction on a living relationship with God that I had found nowhere else. I had found many helpful companions on The Way, spread across time and space and “denominational distinctives.” But this book and this author immediately announced themselves as a unique presence of God in my life. I first studied Teresa of Avila’s Interior Castle twenty or so years ago, after many years of efforts to understand, live, and communicate what the spiritual life portrayed in the Bible was meant to be. ![]() ![]() She will capture you and keep you conquered in everything she writes."-Twin Sisters Rockin' Book Reviews It contains scenes of coercion, both emotional and physical, and should not be read by anyone who could find that distressing.

She was indecisive and whiny, and only more so in this book. Not me though! By the end of Updraft, I had enough of Kirit. When I saw Fran Wilde speak down in Philly a few months ago, she indicated that several of her fans were very angry with her for changing the narrator. This book was quite a bit different than the first, mainly because it was told from Nat’s point-of-view instead of Kirit’s. But it’s sorta true, and its the best I can do without giving away the ending. Yes, that was a very dramatic ending to my summary. What he finds instead could change everything. Hoping to find an alternative, Nat begins searching lower tiers to see if the City’s history can provide an answer. Many of the Council members want to hold a Conclave – throwing the former Singers down into the clouds in hopes it will appease the City.

The Singers, except for Kirit, have had their wings stripped and are being treated as criminals.
