The Fragile Path: Testaments of the First Cabal

Selected Option:

And I have seen it pass sterile into textbooks, just more facts to be learned to please a stern tutor, then forgotten when the lesson is over.

But the lessons of the Awakened must never end. By the divine Avatar within each of us, we are bound to history just as we are charged to create it. We, of all mortals, cannot forget what has gone before us. Nor can we shunt it into scraps of paper and shove it onto library shelves, just another book to be checked out when required. We are history, the past, present, and future incarnate, and we must not forget those who went before us - what they did, what they gave, what they eventually won - lest we become the last chapter in the final history book.

This is the tale of the First Cabal; five Testaments, plus my own observations and commentary. As so few of our kind have the tolerance to sift through the archaic wordcraft, I have taken the (laborious) liberty of translating these testimonies...

Note: The Black & White print editions of this book are not full-bleed. Because of printing requirements there is a small white border around the edge of the pages.

My POD copy of this book has an irritating, repeating typo: every single quotation mark in the whole book is replaced by the letter i with a diacritic on it. This makes it difficult to read in places. Thankfully there isn't much dialogue. Please fix this for the pdf and for future purchasers.

Looking through more, I see a few " and ' are printed as intended, but others are replaced by ë, ì, or î. The problem seems to vary with the font.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
