Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Zurick, winner of the 2006 National Outdoor Book Award, recounts an event in his life that seems exceedingly uncomplicated: he builds a goldfish pond in his backyard. Yet, there is more to a goldfish pond than meets the eye. Zurick's compelling story travels the world, encompassing places of extraordinary beauty and rich cultural traditions, but the core of it is in Wolf Gap Holler, Kentucky, where he lives among hard-working and community-minded neighbors, cuts firewood to keep warm in the winter, and enjoys morning coffee by his goldfish pond . . . often with his neighbor George. Entertaining and informative, the book at first seems so simple that one barely notices its treatises on the sacred qualities of place, the contemplative virtues of nature, the dilemmas of sustainability, and the spiritual framework that undergirds life. Yet, this is what this book is about: a sacred and seamless landscape that extends from the highest mountain plateaus in Tibet to the deepest hollers of Kentucky.

The resolution of each problem offers a gently stated lesson about a childhood dilemma.

Book excerpt: Modern Fantasy. Friendships. Vengeance. Hain lives in Mazheven. His curly, dark hair and gray eyes remind the villagers of the faraway capital where humans, deities, and druids live in harmony and as allies. They bully him for his differences and make fun of his wish to one day become a druid and leave for the capital. This hopeless wish turns into reality when he meets a great druid who takes him to Deodscùa Lárhus in the land of the deities. Lárhus is guarded by hybrids of ogres and only those who live in Atesh can enter through the golden gates. A real miracle unseen for centuries, perhaps that is why Hain becomes the center of attention of both deities and evil spirits alike when mysterious events occur in a place where no evil can enter. Will he give up his dream and return to Mazheven or will he prove his innocence?
