Book excerpt: The Academy's ranks are thinning each year. Since the decision to cease social graduation of mages, those with talent enough to become Journeymen or reach Magus status are fewer and further between. Calen, a Journeyman Blademage, works with his Magus friend Evrian to find residue of cast spells and to decipher, build, and sell this knowledge to the Academy for a living. But Calen has a bad habit of venturing into the Deadlands for this knowledge, and the Deadlands are no place for a lone mage. The Deadlands, a huge scar in the earth caused by the use of magic in a human war 300 years ago, is a landscape of terrain burnt to obsidian, all harsh angles harboring unforgiving wraiths. The Dryads, progenitors of life and whose language modern magic stems from, have seen the Deadlands, and have realized their mistake in giving humanity the gift of magic. The only way for the world to be at peace now is for humanity to cease to exist. But as Calen searches for ways for humanity to survive the Dryads' wrath, he discovers a new, more sinister threat lurking in the shadows...

This fully updated guide refocuses the lens to reveal an ancient country that continues to surpass all expectations: from the ancient Judaic cultures of the fertile highlands to the colourful animist people of the South Omo Valley, from the Afro-pine moorland of the Bale Mountains National Park to the thundering Blue Nile Falls. Taking you far off the beaten track, the author presents more of this expansive beautiful land, believed to be the cradle of humankind.Bradt's Ethiopia provides the most comprehensive coverage of any English-language guidebook on the market. Not only does it include towns and villages well off the beaten track, but it goes into greater depth than its competitors, with more detail on the history, culture and sights, and more opinionated and entertaining reviews of hotels and restaurants.

Download or read book They Need Not Go Away written by Timothy A. Rippstein and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-05-29 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered how the Lord sustained Martin Luther through one of the most personally and spiritually intense times in the history of Christendom? And does God still do this today? The answer is yes! They Need Not Go Away is a practical book identifying and teaching modern-day Millennials and Gen Zers about Lutheran spirituality. It offers prayer practices designed and applied by Martin Luther, the Reformer, for modern families, individuals, adults, and teenagers. These spiritual practices are also applied to the modern Christian. To support these practices and the Lutheran contribution to Christian spirituality, this volume traces the influences of Martin Luther's piety from pre-Reformation influencers to Dr. Luther as he navigated the tremendous social, cultural, and ecclesiastical pressures of his time. His spirituality is then traced through the next generations of Orthodoxy and Pietism identifying the shifts away from the affective aspects of Lutheran spirituality and elevation of the academic and more cognitive characteristics received in the twentieth century. The goal is to recapture the wholistic spirituality including the cognitive, affective, and experiential features. These are still useful in the hands of the Lord for today's believers.
