Download or read book Blood Oaths to the Secret Covenant written by K. Jackson and published by . This book was released on 2012-07-25 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a modern, dramatic, re-telling of historical facts secretly related to the 2012 Presidential campaign. These facts uncover a sinister pattern of deception utilized by Mormon leaders since their religion's beginnings in America of the 1830's. This portrait, paints such a contradictory personal character to the one portrayed by the Romney campaign, that people will be shocked to find out just how deep Romney's roots are buried in the Mormon aristocracy. The controversy is placed on the notion that Mormon leaders have secretly planned a take-over of the United States government based on a prediction by their leader Joseph Smith in the 1840's, known as the White Horse Prophecy. Blood Oaths... explores the basis of this belief and traces the tactics of the Mormon Church leader's efforts to cover it up. Throughout the book, numerous articles and opinions which criticize the Mormon hierarchy are sited, including Park Romney, cousin to Mitt Romney. These sources have been scrutinized and re-confirmed by our organization, the Nathaniel Rigdon Society, for this research. Our group of concerned voters, joined together to research this project while observing the 2012 primary debates. At first, what started as cursory inquiries into Mitt Romney's statement "...I will not distance myself from my faith and the faith of my fathers," quickly turned into a discussion about the history of Mormonism's founders. One fact after another reconfirmed the notion stated by Park Romney that, "...Mormon Church leaders, knowingly and willfully misrepresent the historical truth of their origins and of the church, for the purpose of deceiving their members into a state of mind that renders them exploitable." Readers will be given insightful knowledge about some of the controversy surrounding Mormons most celebrated leaders, Joseph Smith and Brigham Young as well as a lesser known prophet who helped create the LDS traditions, Parley Pratt, fore-father to Mitt Romney. This is done thru highlighting various news articles, eyewitness testimony and books, both current and historical, to develop a modern-day character portrait of Willard Mitt Romney, who the book reveals, gets his name from a man in the room at the time of Joseph Smith's murder in a Carthage, Illinois jail. The audience of modern-day soap operas and dysfunctional family, reality shows, will find this drama-filled history, extremely captivating. An advance promotion quotes, "Destroying angels, secret rituals, massacres, blood oaths passed down through generations and a plot for one world theocracy...sounds like an historical-fictional Dan Brown novel. But what if it was all true and the 2012 election was the key to the fulfillment of a prophecy?" mittromneybloodoath.comhttp://mittromneybloodoath.com

Download or read book Anonymus and Master Roger written by Martyn C. Rady and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains two very different narratives: a work of literary imagination on early Hungarian history, and an eye-witness account of the Mongol invasion of 1241/42. An anonymous notary of King Bela of Hungary (probably Bela III, d. 1196), also Known as P dictus magister, wrote a Latin Gesta Hungarorum, (ca 1200/10), and enigmatic and much disputed work on the Hungarian conquest of the Carpathian Basin in the late ninth century, including a mythical origo gentis, and a history of the Magyars prior to the foundation of the kingdom in 1000 A.D. Additionally, he wove into it stories of heroic ancestors of the great men of his time. Anonymus (as he is commonly referred to) tried to (re)contruct the events and protagonists---including ethnic groups---of several centuries before from the names of places, rivers, and mountains of his time, assuming that these retained the memory of times past. Based on these, he presented a narrative in the style of the popular romances of the siege of Troy and the exploits of Alexander the Great, also utilizing some oral traditions and earlier chronicles. One of his major "inventions" was the inclusion of Attila the Hun into the Hungarian royal genealogy, a feature later developed into the myth of Hun-Hungarian continuity (by Simon of Keza and other chroniclers). Already translated into most Central-European languages, it is here for the first time presented in an updated Latin text with an annotated English translation. The Italian Master Roger (born around the time the retired notary was writing his Gesta) was canon of the cathedral of Varad/Oradea when the Mongols attacked Hungary. He recorded in great detail and vivid prose his experiences, including his hiding from and falling into the hands of the "Tatars". This he prefaced by an astute observation of political conflicts in mid-thirteenth-century Hungary. His description of the events, together with those of Archdeacon Thomas of Split (CEMT 4), is the basic evidence for the horrible devastation of the country by Batu Khan's armies. The present translation is based on the editio princeps of 1488, as no manuscript has survived.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonel Ridge Zirkander isn’t the model of military professionalism—he has a tendency to say exactly what’s on his mind, and his record has enough demerits to wallpaper the hull of an airship—but as the best fighter pilot in the Iskandian army, he’s used to a little leniency from his superiors. Until he punches the wrong diplomat in the nose and finds himself issued new orders: take command of a remote prison mine in the inhospitable Ice Blades Mountains. Ridge has never been in charge of anything larger than a flier squadron—what’s he supposed to do with a frozen fortress full of murderers and rapists? Not to mention the strange woman who shows up right before he arrives… Sardelle Terushan wakes from three hundred years in a mage stasis shelter, only to realize that she is the last of the Referatu, the sorcerers who once helped protect Iskandia from conquerors. Their subterranean mountain community was blown up in a treacherous sneak attack by soldiers who feared their power. Everyone Sardelle ever knew is dead, and the sentient soulblade she has been bonded to since her youth is buried in the core of the mountain. Further, what remains of her home has been infested by bloodthirsty miners commanded by the descendants of the very soldiers who destroyed her people. Sardelle needs help to reach her soulblade—her only link to her past and her last friend in the world. Her only hope is to pretend she’s one of the prisoners while trying to gain the commander’s trust. But lying isn’t her specialty, especially when the world has changed so much in the intervening centuries, and if Colonel Zirkander figures out who she truly is, he’ll be duty-bound to sentence her to the only acceptable punishment for sorcerers: death.

Book excerpt: An Instant New York Times Bestseller! Winner of the Coretta Scott King - John Steptoe for New Talent Author Award Filled with mystery and an intriguingly rich magic system, Tracy Deonn’s YA contemporary fantasy reinvents the King Arthur legend and “braids together Southern folk traditions and Black Girl Magic into a searing modern tale of grief, power, and self-discovery” (Dhonielle Clayton, New York Times bestselling author of The Belles). After her mother dies in an accident, sixteen-year-old Bree Matthews wants nothing to do with her family memories or childhood home. A residential program for bright high schoolers at UNC–Chapel Hill seems like the perfect escape—until Bree witnesses a magical attack her very first night on campus. A flying demon feeding on human energies. A secret society of so called “Legendborn” students that hunt the creatures down. And a mysterious teenage mage who calls himself a “Merlin” and who attempts—and fails—to wipe Bree’s memory of everything she saw. The mage’s failure unlocks Bree’s own unique magic and a buried memory with a hidden connection: the night her mother died, another Merlin was at the hospital. Now that Bree knows there’s more to her mother’s death than what’s on the police report, she’ll do whatever it takes to find out the truth, even if that means infiltrating the Legendborn as one of their initiates. She recruits Nick, a self-exiled Legendborn with his own grudge against the group, and their reluctant partnership pulls them deeper into the society’s secrets—and closer to each other. But when the Legendborn reveal themselves as the descendants of King Arthur’s knights and explain that a magical war is coming, Bree has to decide how far she’ll go for the truth and whether she should use her magic to take the society down—or join the fight.
