Trial by Sorcery
Dragons can be dangerous … if you don’t bond with them first. Eldwin wants to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a Dragon Guard, but not for the glory. With his family dead and their lands dying, the opportunity to join the dragon rider school is all he has. But before Eldwin can bond with a dragon and guard the skies, he must pass three tests to prove his worth. Compassion, magical aptitude, and armed combat. He’s determined to pass, but his maimed arm is a constant reminder of his disadvantage. Will the obstacles Eldwin faces keep him from reaching his dreams, or will he finally see what it’s like to ride the skies? An ISFAB top 10 finalist! Fans of Sarah K.L.

European Witch Trials: Their Foundations in Popular and Learned Culture, 1300-1500 explores the intricate dynamics of witchcraft accusations and trials during the medieval period, seeking to untangle the roots of these phenomena in both popular and learned cultures. The author critiques the anthropological approach to the European witch trials, noting that while European society differed significantly from non-Western societies, the mechanisms behind witch beliefs and persecutions seem to transcend these cultural distinctions. Despite societal differences, both European and primitive cultures exhibited a fluidity in their understanding of causality, where magical, natural, and religious explanations coexisted without conflict, providing fertile ground for witch accusations. The book delves into the challenge of discerning the true nature of witch beliefs in early European society, particularly the distinction between learned and popular traditions. Many scholars have proposed various foundations for witch beliefs—some argue that these beliefs were born of learned theological concepts, while others suggest they were rooted in popular folklore or even illicit practices. The author discusses these differing perspectives, offering a framework for distinguishing between sorcery, invocation, and diabolism, the core components of witchcraft, while acknowledging the blurring of these concepts in historical documents. By focusing on the period between 1300 and 1500, the work highlights the geographical regions most affected by witch trials, primarily in England, France, Italy, and Germany, offering a nuanced exploration of how these trials were influenced by societal anxieties and cultural tensions of the late medieval period.
