Although the battle for Earth’s balance teeters on a precipice, Maysun, a powerful entity who maintains the world’s Balance, has stepped down from her role and blessed her lover, Eoghan, with her power. Days later, she realizes she may have made her decision much too soon. Charles Dunning, the head of the criminal global vampire tribe the Shévet ha Dam, is on the trail of Maysun’s only child, Amara. Amara lives half of her life awake and in fear, the other half in a shadowy world hardly remembered. She holds a power that allows her to resist the vampire curse, but only a select handful know of her ability. Even Amara is unaware of her gift. She believes she teeters on the edge of insanity, taunted by voices that have haunted her for years. She has no idea the voices are vampires trailing her every move. With Dunning determined to overrun the world with the Maleficence, his opponent, Vivian Black, must use the Source to find Amara first. With the help of new friends wielding unusual talents, Vivian and her family once again find themselves caught up in the global fight to ensure the world remains in equilibrium before Charles overruns it with darkness.

Terra the magical half-human. Shadow the mysterious assassin. Celes the tough, tender general. Kefka the fool who would be god. Each of the many unforgettable characters in Final Fantasy VI has made a huge impression on a generation of players, but why do we feel such affection for these 16-bit heroes and villains as so many others fade? The credit goes to the game’s score, composed by the legendary Nobuo Uematsu. Armed with newly translated interviews and an expert ear for sound, writer and musician Sebastian Deken conducts a critical analysis of the musical structures of FF6, the game that pushed the Super Nintendo’s sound capabilities to their absolute limits and launched Uematsu’s reputation as the “Beethoven of video game music.” Deken ventures deep into the game’s lush soundscape—from its expertly crafted leitmotifs to its unforgettable opera sequence—exploring the soundtrack’s lasting influence and how it helped clear space for game music on classical stages around the world.

Feminist scholars of motherhood distinguish between mothering and motherhood, and argue that the latter is a patriarchal institution that is oppressive to women. Few scholars, however, have considered how mothering, as a female defined and centred experience, may be a site of empowerment for women. This collection is the first to do so. Mother Outlaws examines how mothers imagine and implement theories and practices of mothering that are empowering to women. Central to this inquiry is the recognition that mothers and children benefit when the mother lives her life, and practices mothering, from a position of agency, authority, authenticity and autonomy.
