Everyone who touches you transforms you, if only a little. But if you enter their minds and think what they have thought, even do what they have done...how complete will that transformation be? If Peniff had been born an ordinary man, his family would be safe-safe as anyone can be in a land torn apart by war.

This is the story of a man, in all other ways ordinary, rising above his fears to do what he must. Can he free his family before his betrayal comes to light? Moreover, what will he become before his journey is over? T hought Gazer , the second volume of The Ydron Saga, is the first book of the prequel trilogy to Awakening .

Important
The great volume of Christopher Alexander is a basic approach in architectural design theory. As it was and is still separate from the main streamlines of architectural theory it will retain its validity for a long period.

Fabulous Resource
I am a student of Landscape Architecture and find this text very helpful. It has compiled tons of research and knowledge about patterns found in cities, back yards, children's playgournds, farm houses . . . you name it it's probably in there. Each section is concise and easily understood with a descriptive diagram. It is very useful and just plain interesting.

Timeless architecture
This book is an architect's "bible" ... with complete attention to the natural order as it supports humankind's building and organization efforts, big and small, from beautiful town layouts that provide sane, smooth, and supportive living ... to the details of pathway patterns within a home for people and the sun. The range of topics is wonderful ... a fascinating learning tool.
