With mythical Atlantyoc sunk to the bottom of the Endless Sea, the only way for the peoples of Myr to harvest more precious tidestone is to wait for the enigmatic Five Moons to align.

With nothing left of his home, he escapes Croftland in a stolen tidestone airship, the Suncatcher, and flees for the pirate port of Janga Bay to start anew. But the life of a pirate and smuggler proves far harder than he'd imagined, and within a New Moon Hawk finds himself broke, haunted by regret from the family he couldn't save, and the Suncatcher's tidestone core nearly spent.After an errant tavern brawl lands Hawk deeply indebted to a local crime lord, and squarely in the sights of the murderous waraabei pirate Rak-Tak, Hawk has no choice but to accept a cryptic contract to transport a mysterious girl to a place beyond the volcanic Crimson Mists, a journey no one has ever returned from alive. Chased by Rak-Tak's murderous crew and darker forces beyond his comprehension, and aided only by his unhelpfully bloodthirsty war golem Urthanq, Hawk finds himself drawn into a desperate struggle that could hold the fate of Myr in the balance, for there is far more to this enigmatic young girl than meets the eye...

The art of movement called eurythmy began about eighty years ago, based on Rudolf Steiner's knowledge of spiritual beings and meanings behind various human movements, as well as knowledge of the inner spiritual qualities of human beings when we move.Eurythmy performance is choreographed according to "forms" drawn to reflect the inner nature of spoken language (speech eurythmy) or a musical piece (tone eurythmy), which is the subject of Eurythmy Forms for Tone Eurythmy.Steiner produced about 1500 forms for speech and tone eurythmy to be performed in Dornach and other locations. Many of his forms for tone eurythmy arose spontaneously in response to requests for forms from eurythmists. Steiner's spontaneity is readily apparent in the sketches themselves, with some drawn at rehearsals as he listened to the music. Steiner sketched others in the evening after hearing the music once, making them available for rehearsal the next day. When he was confined to bed during his final illness, he drew forms simply by looking at the sheet music.Eurythmy Forms for Tone Eurythmy contains facsimiles of the Rudolf Steiner's original drawings and, in many cases, instructions for performing them. Included are forms for compositions by Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Chopin, Franck, Grieg, Handel, Lewerenz, Liszt, Mozart, Reger, Schubert, Schumann, Scriabin, van Stuten, Tartini, and many more. This is a valuable resource for all eurythmists, as well as for those who wish to gain a better understanding of eurythmy forms.This book is intended primarily for eurythmy students, performers, and teachers, and is also useful to anyone who would like to study eurythmy movements and better appreciate eurythmy performances.
