Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the heart-stopping finale to the Crown of Feathers trilogy, which #1 New York Times bestselling author Kendare Blake calls “absolutely unforgettable,” Veronyka must face her most devastating enemy yet: her own sister. I had a sister, once… Veronyka is no longer an orphaned stable boy or a nameless Phoenix Rider apprentice: she is the daughter of Pheronia Ashfire, the last queen of the Golden Empire…and the niece of Avalkyra Ashfire, the resurrected rebel queen who tore the empire apart. We shone brightly, burned fiercely. Now that the secret is out, everyone at the Eyrie treats Veronyka differently, and with Tristan still a hostage of the scheming Lord Rolan—and Sev with him as a spy—Veronyka feels very much alone. Except for her beloved phoenix, Xephyra, of course, and her new friend, Kade, who has his own reasons for wanting to save Tristan. Was it always going to come down to this? Sister against sister? Darkness against light? Veronyka is determined to do whatever it takes to get Tristan back, even if that means revealing her identity to the world and inheriting a throne she’s not sure she wants. But when she discovers that Avalkyra has bonded with a strix—a legendary creature of darkness that feeds off the life force of others—Veronyka realizes she has more to deal with than an encroaching war with the empire. Val is willing to destroy everything to get her revenge on a world that rejected her, and if Veronyka wants to bring peace to the empire and Pyra alike, she must face down her sister once and for all. The world began with Ashfire queens…perhaps they will also be its destruction.

Download or read book In the Shadow of His Wings written by Jonathan Macy and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, angels have been viewed as either disconnected objects of specultive investigation, or as mystifying beings mysteriously influencing our lives. However, this is not how the Bible describes them. Scripture, in sober and straightforward terms, simply describes what angels do. It is a practical depiction, a pastoral presentation. We see messages of encouragement, revelation, and guidance; we see judgment and correction; we see strengthening, we see journeying; we see prayer and worship. The biblical focus concerning angels is on ministry to the people of God. Angels are one way that God intervenes in human affairs in response to pastoral concerns or problems. Using only Scripture and a classic model of pastoral theology as the framework, this book shows practically how angels are employed by God to bless His church and peopleas His servant ministers who glorify Him alone.

Download or read book The Shadow Of Giants written by Gerald Ciccarone and published by Gerald Ciccarone. This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 635 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apparently, we are entering a "Brave New World," where truth, justice, and the American way have been cast aside for subterfuge, indoctrination, and manipulation. Most of the people who live in this amazing country, still hold the traditional values which have always been the solid ground under its foundation. Local, national, and social media, as well as the doublespeak from most of our self-serving politicians, employ outright lies and innuendo to convince the majority of good people they are in the minority and their voice is irrelevant. They have been erroneously led to believe and accept their supposed minority status, with the vast bulk of the population supposedly residing on the opposite end of the political spectrum. Such is the false propaganda being foisted on us. To quote Joseph Goebbels, Hitler's minister of propaganda: *“Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play.” *“Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty.” *“You can’t change the masses. They will always be the same: dumb, gluttonous and forgetful.” *"If you repeat a lie often enough, people will begin to believe it, and you'll even come to believe it yourself." *“Propaganda works best when those who are being manipulated are confident, they are acting on their own free will.” *"A lie told once remains a lie, but a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth." Sound familiar? It ought to. We are living it, and it will be our undoing. Never believe for one minute this is simply, the way it goes in all societies. The greatest sin reasonable individuals can commit is the refusal to think and perceive reality for what it is. This is my attempt to create a character, Iggy Marcus, the epitome of integrity, bearing the standard for all honest men and women everywhere, who abhor the destruction of America, man's greatest political creation. If we refuse to take up the standard with him and abandon our obligation to posterity, we will witness America's slide into oblivion as we get what we deserve for our apathy. Gerald Ciccarone

Book excerpt: In one minute, delivering a not guilty verdict at the end of the trial for a disturbing murder of a child, Matthew Rice’s life begins to unravel. The very structures his life is built upon start to collapse. Matthew retreats to Quarry Island in Georgian Bay, where he loses his wallet in a boating mishap. Among the pieces of identification he needs to replace is his birth certificate, but he’s informed it’s not on file. His birth certificate was a forgery. Not only have the foundations of his life given way, his very identity is shattered. Matthew learns that the woman who raised him was his father’s second wife, and that his real mother died when he was a baby. What began as a search for a replacement for his birth certificate becomes a search for a woman who was a trailblazing journalist. His search takes him on a journey to Sydney, Australia, Boston, and Dublin; it results in the possession of the journals his mother kept up to her dying days in 1952. These entries are a window into a fascinating woman and a distant time not so different from our own. Still unsure of his place in a world that has changed in ways he has difficulty completely understanding, he returns to Quarry Island in Georgian Bay, where he stocks up on books and a case of good Scotch to sit out the end of his world as he knew it. But fate has more in store for Matthew than he can understand.
