A Whisper Of Angels Dialectical Journal
Journal 1.

In the first section “A Whisper of Angels” Nicholas and Henry keep there feelings hidden because the society that they live in does not socially except two men having that kid of affection for each other. As I read in the first chapter “Henry had been my best friend since childhood” (Florida pg. 3-8) Nicholas and Henry have been best friends since they were little boys so they were very close . Nicholas recently lost his father so he still is mourning his death and Henry is always there for him emotionally. As I read ahead I realize that Nicholas and Henry have feelings for each other and the author , Florido fore shadows that when Henry says “The thing is Nic, I, well I just don’t” (pg.10) this is when Nicholas asked Henry if liked

    I was only a member of the Fallen Lamb for a few nights at the time, but never had I seen the sea as beautiful as it was then. She glistened a deep blue, and clashed against the hard wood of the ship, waves rising until it hit the hull then falling back into the sea. Getting used to the constant rocking of the ship was incredibly difficult at first, but I managed to retain my balance after a week or so. Anyways, I made my way to the main deck, passing through the kitchen first so I could grab a bite to eat. All we had left for breakfast were apples that were once fresh, but old and bruised now.…

    He was very shocked because he thought he locked the door before, but I guess he didn't. He thought to himself “ wow, good thing it is the night or else we would be out of money and business because of that animal. I think that cage was a penguin, he would have eaten all of the customer's fish sandwiches because he loves fish.. I better go find him.” So he went off looking for the penguin.

The too-large helmet crashed the side of his head, leaving a bruise under his thick dark-brown hair. Aelius’s knees gave out, he buckled at the weight of his heavy armour and gear.

    Man. The killer angel. [1] Since the dawn of civilization humanity has fought to protect what they hold dear. Whether that be freedom, religion or land, the body politic has been at war, even within their own borders. Civil War is defined as a war between regions of the same country.[2] Throughout the course of the four and a half year Civil War, many battles were fought, but none quite as pivotal as the Battle of Gettysburg. Had Lee obliged Longstreet in his persistence of a defensive strategy, the Confederate Army very well could have won the war. Instead, the Union succeeded in holding their ground atop a hillside and thus defeating the Confederate Army and ultimately winning the war. One contemplates the motivations of both the Confederates and the Union soldiers in the United States Civil War. Was it money? Power? Dominance? Michael Shaara, author of The Killer Angels suggests alternative motives. In his novel about the pivotal battle, he suggests that even though it was commonly perceived that soldiers were fighting solely…

    In the book The Demon’s Covenant, it takes place in Modern Day England. This book is filled with action, excitement, and a little romance. Mavis, who goes by the name of Mae, is a tough and sassy heroine, who wants an ordinary life, and is nowhere near the grasp of being normal. Mae has no special power or fighting ability. Mae has always had her own identity, but can she, a normal girl without fighting talent or magical capability, hold her own against magicians and demons to protect the ones she loves? Her brother Jamie is a magician who hasn’t reached the full potential of his abilities quite yet. With the power Jamie has, he still doesn’t use it to defend himself from Seb, a jock type who torments Jamie, and the fourth spoke in Mae’s love polygon. However, as the story unfolds, two things are discovered; that Seb is a magician himself, and that he has more feelings towards Jamie than Mae. Further in the book, they once again encounter Gerald, a magician more powerful then Jamie who is opening the door to a much more unrestrained strength. Mae needs the help from two brothers, Nick and Alan to keep the dark magician away and talk some sense into Jamie. Alan is a very intellectual guy who is in love with Mae. His “brother” Nick is a quiet, unemotional, and fearless guy, who is unsurprisingly, a demon. Mae is overwhelmed by these two brothers and has a welter of mixed feelings for the both of them. She sets her thoughts out-of-the-way in order to save her brother. As you would have thought, this doesn’t last very long. Mae meets up with Sin again at the Goblin Market, a Mezentius House, a hospital and prison for bodies possessed by demons. The Goblin Market is where Mae made her first summoning circle as well as where she danced to call upon a demon. There are numerous themes in this book; What it means to love, how far you will go for love, and whether it’s heroic, or self-destructive,…
