"A debut that is ingenious, exciting, enthralling, and impossible to put down! A true original!"*Roger Kilbourne has the ability to "cross over" into the land of the dead and speak with its residents. It is a startling gift, and not a pleasant one. Roger manages to escape his brutal uncle, and thinks his new job at the palace laundry will keep him safe; instead, there are worse dangers. First, Roger is infatuated with bewitching, willful Lady Cecilia; next, he is pulled into the midst of dangerous court intrigue. Soon Roger is using his gift as a way to get the life he dreams of - even if it involves deeds so unthinkable that both the living and the dead shrink from them."An imaginative dark fantasy . . . The premise is fascinating, and the depiction of the afterlife and its oblivious denizens both creepy and eerily serene." - Kirkus Reviews"Splendidly developed." - BCCB* Connie Willis, New York Times bestselling author

Crossing Over

Whether it's a curse, or a blessing, or an ability, the fact remains that whenever Roger is injured or in enough pain he crosses over to the land of the dead. Once there, there are rules. Only the newly dead will talk, for example, and nothing will raise the longer dead from their tranquility. There are rules in the land of the living as well, rules which would have Roger hanged for witchcraft if he was ever caught. But refusing to cross over isn't an option. His uncle depends on Roger to hide under the table in their fairground act, listen to the recently bereaved asking questions of their dear departed, and then cross over to find the answers. It's a hard way of life, made all the harder as his uncle's fists usually provide the trigger for Roger to cross over. It's not the only way of life, though, and when Roger sees a chance to escape he fights for it -- little knowing that love, loss, shocking revelations and, ultimately, war lie ahead of him.

Speaking Of Love: The 7 Life Languages of Highly Effective Communication

Parenting & Relationships

“By languages, in all their facets, we can live in peace or go to war. We sing songs in harmony, or shout insults in anger. We experience connection or disconnection. We work together in peace or in pain. The choice is ours.”—Anna Kendall Every so often, we meet people with whom we find it difficult to communicate. For one reason or another, we don’t seem to be on the same wavelength—it’s as if we’re speaking different languages. It’s frustrating when we try to discuss something with them or understand their point of view. The late renowned management consultant Peter Drucker claimed that 80 percent of all management problems were the result of faulty communication. Poor communication also causes strife in many relationships. Fred and Anna Kendall set out to discover how different people prefer to communicate and what methods they use to do so. The result is the Kendalls’ Life Languages program, which has been used successfully by tens of thousands of people around the world. In Communication IQ, the Kendalls share information about three communication intelligence categories—kinetic/action, emotive/feeling, and cognitive/thinking—and the seven Life Languages—Mover, Doer, Influencer, Responder, Shaper, Producer, and Contemplator. Each Life Language has a filter through which one views life and communication, a need that provides feelings of acceptance and love when it’s met, a key character strength, a learning style, and other traits. The Kendalls’ goal is to empower people to learn how to use their Life Language to better communicate with others in their personal lives, their careers, and the world at large, while also gaining a greater self-awareness of their own strengths and passions.

"Debido a los lenguajes, en todas sus facetas, podemos vivir en paz o ir a la guerra. Cantamos canciones en armonía, o gritamos insultos en cólera. Experimentamos conexión o desconexión. Trabajamos juntos en paz o con dolor. La elección es nuestra." - Anna Kendall De vez en cuando, nos encontramos con personas con quienes nos resulta difícil comunicarnos. Es como si estuviéramos hablando lenguajes diferentes. Nos frustramos cuando intentamos entender su punto de vista o hacerles entender el nuestro. El famoso consultor en gerencia, Peter Drucker, afirmó que el 80 por ciento de los problemas administrativos son resultado de una comunicación defectuosa. La mala comunicación también causa conflictos en las relaciones personales. Nos urge conocer el lenguaje de comunicación de cada uno de nuestros asociados de negocios, amigos y familiares... porque cada uno de ellos se comunica mejor de una manera específica según su personalidad, ¡y nosotros también! Cuando conocemos ese estilo propio, la comunicación laboral y personal nos permite influenciar, liderar y motivar a las personas de manera efectiva, y desarrollamos relaciones mejores y más fructíferas. Fred y Anna Kendall invirtieron 30 años de investigación profunda y nos aportan en este libro la manera probada y demostrada científicamente que tenemos que conocer para influenciar, liderar y motivar a las personas, tanto en nuestro ámbito empresarial como en el personal y familiar. Aquí descubrirás cómo las personas prefieren comunicarse y qué métodos utilizan para hacerlo. Ya el programa de Lenguajes de Vida Kendall (Kendalls' Life Languages) ha sido utilizado con éxito por decenas de miles de personas en todo el mundo. En Comunicación inteligente, los Kendall comparten las tres categorías de comunicación inteligente: cinética/ acción, emotiva/sentimental y cognitiva/pensante, y los siete lenguajes de vida: autor u originador, hacedor, influyente, respondedor, moldeador o formador, productor y contemplador. Cada Lenguaje de Vida tiene un filtro a través del cual uno ve la vida y la comunicación, la necesidad que provee sentimientos de aceptación y amor cuando se cumple, la fortaleza clave del carácter, el estilo de aprendizaje y otros rasgos. El libro nos capacita a aprender el Lenguaje de Vida de los demás para comunicarnos mejor con ellos, a la vez que adquirimos una mayor conciencia de nosotros mismos en cuanto a nuestras propias fortalezas y pasiones.
