Download or read book Shaking the Gates of Hell written by John Archibald and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On growing up in the American South of the 1960s—an all-American white boy—son of a long line of Methodist preachers, in the midst of the civil rights revolution, and discovering the culpability of silence within the church. By the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and columnist for The Birmingham News. "My dad was a Methodist preacher and his dad was a Methodist preacher," writes John Archibald. "It goes all the way back on both sides of my family. When I am at my best, I think it comes from that sermon place." Everything Archibald knows and believes about life is "refracted through the stained glass of the Southern church. It had everything to do with people. And fairness. And compassion." In Shaking the Gates of Hell, Archibald asks: Can a good person remain silent in the face of discrimination and horror, and still be a good person? Archibald had seen his father, the Rev. Robert L. Archibald, Jr., the son and grandson of Methodist preachers, as a moral authority, a moderate and a moderating force during the racial turbulence of the '60s, a loving and dependable parent, a forgiving and attentive minister, a man many Alabamians came to see as a saint. But was that enough? Even though Archibald grew up in Alabama in the heart of the civil rights movement, he could recall few words about racial rights or wrongs from his father's pulpit at a time the South seethed, and this began to haunt him. In this moving and powerful book, Archibald writes of his complex search, and of the conspiracy of silence his father faced in the South, in the Methodist Church and in the greater Christian church. Those who spoke too loudly were punished, or banished, or worse. Archibald's father was warned to guard his words on issues of race to protect his family, and he did. He spoke to his flock in the safety of parable, and trusted in the goodness of others, even when they earned none of it, rising through the ranks of the Methodist Church, and teaching his family lessons in kindness and humanity, and devotion to nature and the Earth. Archibald writes of this difficult, at times uncomfortable, reckoning with his past in this unadorned, affecting book of growth and evolution.

Book excerpt: It is the time of the Dark Ages. A gravedigger works in the moor late one night to assemble a grotesque book by the light of a torch. On its papyrus pages are the spells of a demon to be bound in the wood of a Sorcerer's Tree. Completing his task, the book helps the man become the head of the most powerful - and most feared - family in a land to become known as Scotland. Fifteen hundred years later, a dishonest merchant attends a book sale held far from his place of business in London. There he sees and steals a nearly ancient tome with a title that links it directly to hell. But he has no real idea of what he has just done, that what he has taken is possessed...a book that is aware of its environment...a book that can see and hear those around it...a book knows who is in the room and who is speaking...a book that will grant its reader anything he wants if it so chooses no matter how gluttonous or vile the request, no matter who gets hurt or who dies. Selling the book three times, it is returned three times, within just days of the sale, its terrified owners claiming supernatural occurrences were observed in their own homes. And one of those customers, a woman nearly killed by the book, happens to be the wife of an Oxford University theologian that also possesses a deep knowledge of occult beliefs and practices. But before Dr. Peter Ashford can carry out his plan to destroy the book, it goes missing. The man is thrust into a race against time to find the demonic book, encountering two antagonists..one human, one not. In a frantic effort to track it down, Peter must make sense of mysterious clues and codes, solve a baffling cryptogram, avoid the deadly cloud that never moves while trying to escape the control of a strange man with dark green eyes that do not belong to him. From the sole human resident of this castle, one so haunted that residents fifty miles away will not even speak of it, Peter learns of flesh-eating revenants and murderous stone statues that come to life in an attempt to kill him. He also learns to his horror that within the book he seeks is a secret. And if unlocked, the most powerful archdevil of hell will be unleashed on earth...an archdevil that is not Satan. Someone begins to use the book. People die by the hundreds. And how they die cannot be explained by any science known to man....their deaths coming to scare even police forensic investigators. Time is running out. Peter is humanity's only hope for rescue. Nearly losing his life several times as he struggles to locate the book that will try to stop him at all costs, the man is drawn into hell itself as he races to prevent a satanic Armageddon.

Desperate to escape a life that is falling apart. 2017. Beast. Kings of Hell Motorcycle Club vice president. His fists do the talking. Beast has been disfigured in a fire, but he's covered his skin with tattoos to make sure no one mistakes his scars for weakness. The accident not only hurt his body, but damaged his soul and self-esteem, so he's wrapped himself in a tight cocoon of violence and mayhem where no one can reach him. Until one night, when he finds a young man covered in blood in their clubhouse. Sweet, innocent, and as beautiful as an angel fallen from heaven, Laurent pulls on all of Beast's heartstrings. Laurent is so lost in the world around him, and is such a tangled mystery, that Beast can't help but let the man claw his way into the stone that is Beast's heart. In 1805, Laurent has no family, no means, and his eyesight is failing. To escape a life of poverty, he uses his beauty, but that only backfires and leads him to a catastrophe that changes his life forever. He takes one step into the abyss and is transported to the future, ready to fight for a life worth living. What he doesn't expect in his way is a brutal, gruff wall of tattooed muscle with a tender side that only Laurent is allowed to touch.
