Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vampire king’s army of vampire/werewolf hybrids is spreading across America, slaughtering everything in its path. Aided by Celise, a sprite driven mad by despair and armed with a book that grants unimaginable power, Cain’s hybrids can strike anywhere and at any time. But the hybrids aren’t the sprite’s most powerful weapon. That distinction belongs to an innocent pack member, drawn into a web of betrayal by Celise’s wicked lies. Already pressed on all sides, the wolves’ allied forces must race to uncover a deadly secret being kept by one of their own. If they fail, even their combined strength won’t be enough to stop the evil forces hellbent on nothing less but a complete annihilation of humankind. The hour of reckoning has arrived, and even the deepest love may not be enough to heal the wounds that come from within. The fate of the grey wolves hinges on their willingness to fight, forgive, and make unfathomable sacrifices.

Download or read book The Wolves Descend written by Quinn Loftis and published by Quinn Loftis Books, LLC. This book was released on 2021-12-29 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fight for dominance begins. The period of mourning for the great alphas, Vasile and Alina, is over. But some refuse to move on. The high fae, Perizada, vows never to experience the loss of her friends--her family--again. She knows the only way to do this is to take on the Order of the Burning Claw herself. But her mate would never allow it. So, she does the only thing she can, severing all ties with her allies. Peri’s decision could destroy her enemies, the Order, but it could also destroy everything she holds dear. The end of mourning also marks the beginning of challenges to the new alpha of alphas, Fane Lupei. Rogue wolves who desire to rule in his stead attempt to stake their claims. Though Fane abides by pack law when facing his opponents, others aren’t so honorable. Fane soon realizes the threats he faces aren’t just against him, but against his entire pack. Skender and the fae, Tenia, fight against the mate bond drawing them closer. They both know they cannot be together, but the bond is more powerful than either expected. Meanwhile, Skender has promised to keep Tenia’s son, Torion, safe--a promise he’s willing to die to keep. Skender soon finds out that there’s more to the boy than meets the eye, and Skender’s ability to keep the boy safe could be the key to saving them all.
Download or read book The Fall of the Berlin Wall written by Jeffrey A. Engel and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-22 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fall of the Berlin Wall sent shock waves around the world. It was, quite literally, a world-changing event. Now, more than two decades after the Wall's collapse, this book brings together leading authorities who offer a fresh look at how leaders in four vital centers of world politics--the United States, the Soviet Union, Europe, and China--viewed the world in the aftermath of this momentous event. Jeffrey Engel contributes a chronological narrative of this tumultuous period, followed by substantive essays by Melvyn Leffler on the United States, Chen Jian on China, James Sheehan on Germany and Europe, and William Taubman and Svetlana Savranskaya on the Soviet Union. These historians reinterpret the meaning of 1989 in the context of global history in the late 20th and early 21st century and explore such questions as why communism failed in Europe, why China took a different route following the turmoil of Tiananmen Square, and why the peace of 1989 might well prove illusory.
Download or read book 1 2 Samuel written by David H. Jensen and published by Presbyterian Publishing Corp. This book was released on 2015-08-24 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The episodes in 1 and 2 Samuel are striking in their depiction of human characters—priests, soldiers, kings, prophets, and royal advisers—but also significant in how they narrate the central character of this history, the God of Israel. History, in these books, is not simply an accounting of royal intrigue, military battles, and socio-economic struggle but the stage upon which God reveals God's very self. First and Second Samuel relay some of the most memorable vignettes in all Scripture—the call of Samuel, David's battle with Goliath, and David's seizure of Bathsheeba as his wife—and discover in them the hand of God." —from the introduction First and Second Samuel describe the beginnings of monarchy in ancient Israel and introduce us to intriguing characters: Samuel—prophet, priest, and judge; Saul—the tragic figure who becomes Israel's first king; and David—Saul's celebrated successor and Israel's key leader whose influence endured for generations. But as Jensen makes clear in his splendid commentary, there is another figure who is a central character: God. Throughout his theologically rich treatment of these biblical books, Jensen explores what makes these texts important for us. He suggests that we read 1 and 2 Samuel because they reveal the complexities of the human person; the ambiguities of our social arrangements as nations; and God's agency in a conflicted world. Jensen notes that as we are shaped by and grapple with the biblical stories, we are invited to find our own stories within them. "What keeps us coming back to faith," he says, "is its stories: stories that tell the truth about the human condition, our shared corporate life, and the life God gives to the world."

Download or read book Jerkwater Freight written by Jeff M. Pregmon and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2000-11-14 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jerkwater Freight is the realization of nearly a decade of writing. This debut collection of poems, essays, and short stories formally draws together the bulk of my creative writing efforts. While a majority of the work comes from the years 1995-1999, I have included some poems and essays that go back as far as 1990. Other significant sources of material are the two creative writing courses I took at Illinois State University with Jim Elledge, to whom this book is dedicated. Without his encouragement at a time when my confidence in writing was ebbing, very little of the material in Jerkwater Freight would have been written. Jerkwater Freight is in such a format that it is not designed to be read from cover to cover because it has not been written in that manner. It is a journey through the mind where the destination is not one to be reached quickly. Along the way there are pauses to reflect on the route taken and to pick up boxcars left on sidings up and down the line.

Download or read book Stuck written by Anneli Rufus and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-12-26 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The brilliant mind behind Party of One examines the striking social trend: people are stuck and they want to change, but..." (San Francisco Chronicle) In this book, Anneli Rufus identifies an intriguing aspect of our culture: Many of us are stuck. Be it in the wrong relationship, career, or town, or just with bad habits we can't seem to quit, we even say we want to make a change, but . . . Merging interviews, personal anecdotes, and cultural criticism, Stuck is a wise and passionate exploration of the dreams we hold dearest for ourselves-and the road to actually achieving them. When faced with the possibility of change, our minds can play tricks on us. We tell ourselves: I can't make it. Or, It's not worth the effort. How is it that in a time of unprecedented freedom and opportunity, so many of us feel utterly powerless and unsure? In this book, Rufus exposes a complex network of causes for our immobilization- from fear and denial to powerful messages in popular culture or mass media that conspire to convince us that we're helpless in the face of our cravings. But there can be a light at the end of the tunnel: Rufus also tells the stories of people who have managed to become unstuck and of others who, after much reflection, have decided that where they are is best. After all, she writes, "what looks to you like a rut, others might say is true absorption in a topic, a relationship, a career, a pursuit, a place. What looks to you like boredom, others call commitment. And even contentment." A brilliant glimpse into what truly motivates-or doesn't motivate-us, Stuck will inspire you to take a look at yourself in an entirely new light.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that influential historians have been unable to offer a complete account of ante-bellum-era American slavery because of their preoccupation with humanizing the slaveholders. Neal skillfully weaves together candid first-hand accounts of courageous ex-slaves, permitting readers to see slavery in the United States from their point of view.
