But while Richard has the brave people of D’Hara at his command, Emperor Jagang of the Imperial Order has a significant advantage: he doesn’t fight fair.

Book excerpt: A nursery rhyme leads Ellery Queen to a killer—from the author who took “the formal detective novel to greater heights than any American writer” (The Weekly Standard). Ellery Queen was raised in New York City, but his heart belongs to the village of Wrightsville. An idyllic New England hamlet, it was the site of some of the world-famous detective’s most remarkable investigations. After years of solving murder cases in Wrightsville’s coziest parlors, Queen was sure the community did not have any further mysteries to offer. But an anonymous letter draws him back to the most dangerous small town in America. Luke MacCaby’s sagging old Victorian mansion sits on the edge of a respectable Wrightsville district as a fading reminder of the area’s long-vanished heyday. When the owner—a seemingly impoverished hermit—passes away, the town is shocked to learn that he was a partner in the local dye works and left behind a fortune worth millions. To find MacCaby’s killer, Queen must peel away the surface of the place he so dearly loves.
Download or read book Blue little box for looking on a meadow written by B.J.D. and published by La Republica Populorum della Capibara Grande. This book was released on 2024-04-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the book (from the review) This book is a fairy tale of the type that is addressed to adults rather than children (except perhaps adolescents). Someone once said that the look at the meadow expressed in the title is as if from the depths of the box with the lamb, as we know it from The Little Prince. Blue box is a story about friendship, love and hope. It is also about longing and searching. The most important things in this story are the events that occur during the journey of the two main characters, Maria and Abyss. Which of the places they visited is the most important? Is it a lake with little Pola in a boat? Maybe a field with a Giant and growing lettuce? Everyone must answer this for themselves. For me, it was an angel under the tower of stopped time, and pigeons were going to the scaffold. A special kind of this place is a home. Whatever home is, when you want to travel into the unknown. J. K.

Download or read book The Sea of Glass written by Roger Akerley and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though there are many, many people that read the Scriptures and there are different interpretations of what the Scriptures mean, there is only one truth. The religions of the world are fooling the people of the world by trying to get money for teaching a false understanding of the Scriptures. This is the reason for this book. I wrote this book for the graduation of mankind into true spiritual wisdom and for the soul of those who live in righteousness. I didn’t write this book from inside any religion of any kind. I wrote this book for all people who desire to be with the Lord and understand his word. The power of this book is to understand the glory of human intelligence and to understand the Scriptures in spiritual value. In order to come to the understanding of spiritual value, you must translate the word of God into spiritual value. And I believe this book is the introduction of all mankind to the understanding of the Scriptures...not in the physical way but in the spiritual way.
Download or read book The Complete Folktales of A N Afanas ev Volume II written by Jack V. Haney and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 783 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Up to now, there has been no complete English-language version of the Russian folktales of A. N. Afanas’ev. This translation is based on L. G. Barag and N. V. Novikov’s edition, widely regarded as the authoritative Russian-language edition. The present edition includes commentaries to each tale as well as its international classification number. This second volume of 140 tales continues the work started in Volume I, also published by University Press of Mississippi. A third planned volume will complete the first English-language set. The folktales of A. N. Afanas’ev represent the largest single collection of folktales in any European language and perhaps in the world. Widely regarded as the Russian Grimm, Afanas’ev collected folktales from throughout the Russian Empire in what are now regarded as the three East Slavic languages, Byelorusian, Russian, and Ukrainian. The result of his own collecting, the collecting of friends and correspondents, and in a few cases his publishing of works from earlier and forgotten collections is truly phenomenal. In his lifetime, Afanas’ev published more than 575 tales in his most popular and best-known work, Narodnye russkie skazki. In addition to this basic collection, he prepared a volume of Russian legends, many on religious themes; a collection of mildly obscene tales, Russkie zavetnye skazki; and voluminous writings on Slavic folk life and mythology. His works were subject to the strict censorship of ecclesiastical and state authorities that lasted until the demise of the Soviet Union in the 1990s. Overwhelmingly, his particular emendations were stylistic, while those of the censors mostly concerned content. The censored tales are generally not included in this volume.
Download or read book My Quest to Find a Woman s Place in a Man s World Via Dolorosa written by Katrenia Sneed Logan and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Katrenia Sneed Logan is a native of Roanoke Rapids, NC. She is the daughter of the late Roy and Virginia Sneed-the fourteenth of their fifteen children. At age twenty-eight, Katrenia began preaching the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. The year was 1981. Since that time, she has been in demand as an inspirational conference speaker, evangelist, Bible teacher and workshop facilitator. Katrenia has written several inspirational articles which were published in Christian magazines in the United States and abroad, but A Woman's Place In A Man's World is her first book. With the scholarly and insightful assistance of a lot of good men and women, she takes us on a spiritual quest from Genesis to Revelation-traveling through time and history-in search of the "elusive territory" labeled in 19 th Century America as "the Appropriate Sphere of Woman," a.k.a. "a woman's place." The author invites you to join her on this quest. "Put on your 'thinking cap' and consider what is said, when it was said, why it was said, and more importantly, who said it. As Paul said to Timothy, 'Consider what I say, and the Lord give you understanding.' That's the goal: understanding the Truth. For it is the Truth that sets us free to become all that God called us to be."

Download or read book Truths Among Us written by Derrick Jensen and published by PM Press. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Derrick Jensen, acclaimed author of Endgame and The Culture of Make Believe, comes a prescient, thought-provoking collection of interviews with ten leading writers, philosophers, teachers, and activists. To function in this society, we are asked to live by lies: that humans have the right to take what they want from the earth without giving back, that knowledge is limited to that which can be quantified, that corporations and governments know what is best for our future. Our instinctive outrage at environmental collapse, political conspiracy, and corporate corruption is stifled by the double-speak of popular opinion telling us that the “progress” of civilization demands unquestioning allegiance to those in power. But the brave voices in Truths Among Us seek to help us acknowledge the values we know in our hearts are right—and inspire within us the courage to act on them. Among those who share their wisdom here is acclaimed sociologist Stanley Aronowitz, who shows us that science is but one lens through which we can discover knowledge. Luis Rodriguez, poet and peacemaker, asks us to embrace gang members as people instead of stereotypes, while the brilliant Judith Herman helps us gain a deeper understanding of the psychology of abusers in whatever form they may take. Paul Stamets reveals the power of fungi, whose intelligence, like that of so many nonhumans, is often ignored. And writer Richard Drinnon reminds us that our spiritual paths need not be narrowed by the limiting mythologies of Western civilization. Following How Shall I Live My Life? and Resistance Against Empire, Jensen's third collection of interviews reinforces a simple premise with which he has long challenged his readers: if we shut our ears and eyes to the cacophony of consumption-oriented distractions and pause to listen to the wisdom of our own hearts, the truths among us will reveal themselves. Interviewees include: George Gerbner, Stanley Aronowitz, Luis Rodriguez, Judith Herman, John Keeble, Richard Drinnon, Paul Stamets, Marc Ian Barasch, Martín Prechtel, and Jane Caputi.
