    When She Was Electric is an evocative portrait of a family and a small town torn apart by losses. At the heart of this subtle, textured novel is a wrenching disruption - the death of a young girl in a sleepy town. The book tells the story of three generations of women: the resourceful grandmother who turned unwanted land into a thriving enterprise; the daughters, ethereal Min and bold Nellie, who grew up challenging polite conventions; and Ana, the granddaughter who embodies the hopes - and secrets - of this formidable matriarchy. MacPherson brilliantly reveals the hazy unreliability of memory, the fragility of life, and how a child's grave haunts a family and a splintered town. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Into the Goddesslands (1993-1995) is the first book of the Goddesslands Trilogy, a composite of vignettes, journal entries, poems, and dialogues with inner voices - the personal myth of Pamé La Calmette. “When I speak of the soul, I speak of the psyche, that place of humanity’s cellular imprint - with its myths, legends, and emotional memories hidden in the dark of the unconscious where we all sleep. And I speak of the birth of this soul as it awakens in the forms of dreams, visions and insights leading us to a new exploration. On these pages is the beginning of my soul exploration to the unknown lands within myself. It is also the story of being led to the forests, lakes and valleys of the Pyrenees where the Matriarchy once flourished. These countries, both inner and outer, are the goddesslands.”Dedicated to Marion Woodman (August 15, 1928 - July 9, 2018) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Pamela Preston.

    Based on the international award-winning screenplay and set in a future where matriarchy has toppled patriarchy, Moroz is a flawed, old-fashioned gumshoe fighting for equality in a society where human-form androids have become the norm.Notorious roboticist and artificial intelligence whiz Isadora is his greatest adversary yet his only hope to restore justice between the sexes. Yet her own plans are to keep men under her thumb.When Isadora is charged with murder, Moroz must consider the cost of trying to solve the case: something that could cost him his family, any chance of true equality, and his very life. Additionally, footage of Isadora committing the crime makes the task seem a fool’s errand.In a world where the lines between human and robot love are blurred, Moroz must also find a way to stop a pending contract that threatens to enable a new rise of the robots, one where their bias seeks to erode men’s rights further and put them on the road to extinction. ungekürzt.

    Set after the events of The Magic Engineer (and prior to The Magic of Recluce), The Order War illuminates great figures and major events in the historic war between order and chaos that is the central focus of the saga of Recluce. The deadly White Wizards of Fairhaven, wielding the forces of chaos, have completed their great highway through the Westhorns and now threatened the ancient matriarchy of Sarronnyn, the last bastion of order in Candar. The ruler of Sarronnyn appeals to the Black order wizards of Recluce for help. Justen - a young Black Engineer in the city of Nylan - joins the relief force. Despite their success in destroying more than half the White armies, Sarronnyn falls to the White Wizards, and Justen is chased into the most inhospitable desert in Candar. These trials are but the beginning, for the White Wizards have all Candar in their grasp. Justen must fight both Recluce and Fairhaven, as well as the highest powers of order and the forbidden technology to harness chaos itself in his efforts to halt the conquest of the chaos wizards. ungekürzt.
