The Great War continues. but hope starts to drain away. Christine's battles cost her too many good beings--orcs, trolls, others.
She needs to end the war. And soon. Or else the demons will break loose and Hell will come to Earth.
But how?
Maybe even a badass warrior princess needs help.
"The Troll-Human War"--the second of the trilogy "The Troll Wars" and continuing the "Seattle Trolls" series--follows the adventures of Christine and her merry band as the war continues and lives are lost.
Be sure to read all the books in the Seattle Trolls series.
Christine works hard every night to rebuild the fairy bridge to Trollsville and the other worlds--the one she destroyed in order to claim her magical power.
But the rocks fight her. Does the bridge not want to be repaired? Or did Christine take the wrong advice (from humans, of course) about how it should go together?
Can she figure out the proper way to reassemble the bridge? Who can she trust?
And what will she do once she finally finishes her duty and crosses over?
"The Fairy Bridge Troll"--the final novel in the Seattle Trolls trilogy--continues the coming-of-age journey of Christine, a changeling, as she takes control of her Destiny, and in the end, her life.
Be sure to read the other books in the Seattle Trolls trilogy, "The Princess Troll" and "The Fairy Bridge Troll", as well as the continuing adventures of Christine in the Troll Wars trilogy.

Описание: So much of great literature centres on explorations of gender, sex, and sexuality. What does it mean to be a proper man or woman; what if one cannot be properly called either? Should one wield one`s sexual power politically? What is the relation between law, divine or secular, and sexuality? What does it mean to fail at doing gender? These are just some of the questions that this volume examines.

As the work is divided into chapters, the subjects of which are complete in themselves, the pupil may commence the study of the structure, use, and laws of the several parts of which the human system is composed, by selecting such chapters as fancy or utility may dictate, without reference to their present arrangement, --as well commence with the chapter on the digestive organs as on the bones.
The acquisition of a correct pronunciation of the technical words is of great importance, both in recitation and in conversation. In this work, the technical words interspersed with the text, have been divided into syllables, and the accented syllables designated. An ample Glossary of technical terms has also been appended to the work, to which reference should be made.
Agesilaus, king of Sparta, when asked what things boys should learn, replied, "Those which they will practise when they become men." As health requires the observance of the laws inherent to the different organs of the human system, so not only boys, but girls, should acquire a knowledge of the laws of their organization. If sound morality depends upon the inculcation of correct principles in youth, equally so does a sound physical system depend on a correct physical education during the same period of life. If the teacher and parents who are deficient in moral feelings and sentiments, are unfit to communicate to children and youth those high moral principles demanded by the nature of man, so are they equally incompetent directors of the physical training of the youthful system, if ignorant of the organic laws and the physiological conditions upon which health and disease depend.
For these reasons, the study of the structure of the human system, and the laws of the different organs, are subjects of interest to all, --the young and the old, the learned and the unlearned, the rich and the poor. Every scholar, and particularly every young miss, after acquiring a knowledge of the primary branches, --as spelling, reading, writing, and arithmetic, --should learn the structure of the human system, and the conditions upon which health and disease depend, as this knowledge will be required in practice in after life.
"It is somewhat unaccountable," says Dr. Dick, "and not a little inconsistent, that while we direct the young to look abroad over the surface of the earth, and survey its mountains, rivers, seas, and continents, and guide their views to the regions of the firmament, where they may contemplate the moons of Jupiter, the rings of Saturn, and thousands of luminaries placed at immeasurable distances, ... that we should never teach them to look into themselves; to consider their own corporeal structures, the numerous parts of which they are composed, the admirable functions they perform, the wisdom and goodness displayed in their mechanism, and the lessons of practical instruction which may be derived from such contemplations."
Again he says, "One great practical end which should always be kept in view in the study of physiology, is the invigoration and improvement of the corporeal powers and functions, the preservation of health, and the prevention of disease."
