Robert Carter

    1 januari 1955 – 1 januari 2015

    Deze auteur verkent de grenzen van de menselijke ervaring, geïnspireerd door een buitengewoon leven vol reizen naar afgelegen en vaak gevaarlijke uithoeken van de wereld. Zijn werk is diep geworteld in persoonlijke ervaringen, van werk in de olie-industrie in Texas en het Midden-Oosten tot reizen door Azië en Afrika. Hij probeert de essentie van onontdekte plekken en ongebruikelijke ontmoetingen vast te leggen, en biedt lezers zo een uniek perspectief. Door zijn proza levert hij meeslepende verhalen die zijn brede betrokkenheid bij de wereld en zijn fascinatie voor de diversiteit ervan weerspiegelen.

    De Taal der Stenen. De leerling en de magier
    • In de Vale wordt de landelijke rust ruw verstoord door de komst van de gevreesde Groene Man, onder wiens bruingrijze mantel de magiër Gwydion schuilgaat. Hij is gekomen om de jonge Will weg te halen uit het huis van zijn pleegouders om hem inzicht te geven in de Taal der Stenen. Deze taal staat aan de basis van ons bestaan. Het is de taal van de schepping, de ruwe vorm die grootse magie kan ontketenen. Will twijfelt, want de wereld buiten de Vale is groot en gevaarlijk. Maar zijn toekomstige leermeester is onverbiddelijk. Dus vertrekken ze samen - de leerling en de magiër - hun avontuur tegemoet.

      Full of pageantry and drama,larger-than-life passions,and the clash of war,COURAGE is set during the height of the French Revolution. Napoleon Bonaparte is still waiting in the wings to stride on to the historical stage and the warships of the great British navy rule the seas.Sidney Smith finds himself on a mission to France,and falls in love with a young aristocratic girl,who,along with her family,is destined for the guillotine.On one level the events which unfold thereafter are an adventure story,on another,the tale of a secret conspiracy to change the world for good,but more important than either,the book tells of a man and a woman whose forbidden love sustains them throughout a time of revolution and terror,whose trust in their respective destinies is strong enough to overcome all,and to bring love out of evil.
