In a bleak monastery somewhere in Germany, Paul of Ardiun begins the chronicle he has been ordered by his religious superiors to write: the story of the knight Karelian Brandeis, for whom Paul once served as squire, who fell prey to the evil wiles of a seductive sorceress, thereby precipitating civil war and the downfall of a king. But before Paul can set down more than a sentence or two of this cautionary tale, the sorceress herself magically appears to him. He is a liar, she tells him, and always has been. She lays a spell on him: from this moment, he will only be able to write the truth. But what is the truth? All his life he has rearranged his memories to suit his faith. He has judged Karelian, judged the women, judged the world. Now, against his will, an entirely different story begins to emerge.

Download or read book Son of the Black Chalice Sentry of the Sky written by Milton Lesser and published by . This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Armchair Fiction presents extra large editions of classic science fiction double novels. The first novel in this edition is Milton Lesser's great outer space intrigue tale, "Son of the Black Chalice." It had been twenty-five years since John Hastings, Sr. first found the Chalice. Only a small number of beings in the whole of the Solar System were chosen to benefit from the power of this amazing discovery, and the ever-growing discord that arose from the ranks of the "unworthy" had become a decidedly dangerous thing. In this engaging sequel to "Secret of the Black Planet," John Hastings, Jr., hated and hunted by many, looks for answers to his origins. With the help of the Japanese-Venusian half-breed, Suuki, and the vivacious Susan Bentley, young Hastings is determined to put an end to the hostilities facing his friends and family. His amazing quest soon takes him on a journey across the galaxy in search of answers that only the creators of the Black Chalice can ultimately provide. The second novel is Evelyn E. Smith's "Sentry of the Sky." There had to be a way for Sub-Archivist Clarey to get up in the world-but this way was right out of the tri-di dramas. He was offered a job as a spy on the planet Damorlan. Earthmen had co-existed with many alien planets in the past, but Damorlan had special interests. Damorlan's population, while not overly intelligent, was extremely creative. And its culture, while not cultivated, was rich with desired merchandise easily marketed on Earth. And its population, while not Homo Sapiens, looked remarkably human. It was this last quality of the Damorlanti that caused fear in the Terran government, for no general citizen of Earth, or any other planet for that matter, had known that humanoids existed outside of Terra-and the Terran government wanted to keep it that way. Join veteran science fiction author Evelyn E. Smith as she spins an engaging web of interplanetary conspiracy.
Download or read book Welcome to the Poisoned Chalice written by James K. Galbraith and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The economic crisis in Greece is a potential international disaster and one of the most extraordinary monetary and political dramas of our time. The financial woes of this relatively small European nation threaten the long-term viability of the Euro while exposing the flaws in the ideal of continental unity. "Solutions" proposed by Europe’s combined leadership have sparked a war of prideful words and stubborn one-upmanship, and they are certain to fail, according to renowned economist James K. Galbraith, because they are designed for failure. It is this hypocrisy that prompted former finance minister Yanis Varoufakis, when Galbraith arrived in Athens as an adviser, to greet him with the words “Welcome to the poisoned chalice.” In this fascinating, insightful, and thought-provoking collection of essays—which includes letters and private memos to both American and Greek officials, as well as other previously unpublished material—Galbraith examines the crisis, its causes, its course, and its meaning, as well as the viability of the austerity program imposed on the Greek citizenry. It is a trenchant, deeply felt commentary on what the author calls “economic policy as moral abomination,” and an eye-opening analysis of a contemporary Greek tragedy much greater than the tiny economy of the nation itself.

But when plump, dizzy Diane Ffitch returns home, it's with a sense of deep unease—and not only about her aristocratic family's reaction to her broken engagement and her New Age companions. Plans for a new motorway have intensified the old bitterness between the local people and the "pilgrims," so already the sacred air is soured. And, as the town becomes increasingly split by violence and death, Diane, local bookseller Juanita Carey, and the writer Joe Powys must now face up to the worst of all possibilities: the existence of an anti-Grail—the dark chalice.

Download or read book Liberating Our Dignity Savingour Souls written by and published by Chalice Press. This book was released on with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Lee Butler's own words, "This book is an attempt to answer the question, 'Who are we as African Americans?'" Attempting to answer this question is one way we participate in the works of salvation. Liberating Our Dignity, Saving Our Souls is a study of African American identity aimed at pointing a way out of a current crisis into a new liberation and salvation. Butler combines insights and methodologies from developmental psychology, liberation theology, and African American history to plot a new course for contemporary African Americans to gain a sense of identity that will guide them away from the identity the European and American cultures have traditionally forced upon them. This involves determining identity by personal worth; not by occupation, economic class, or social class.
