Book Description
Nicolas Delacroix has always been a magnet for trouble. His life as a vampire has been one of debauchery and luxury. With money to burn, nothing is beyond his reach, and the excessive lifestyle of the affluent vampire playboy is his for the taking. His nights of hitting the town to find a temporary female friend are thrown into chaos when he is placed as co-leader of the Lancaster family dynasty with his younger sister, Martine. Without a true Lancaster ruling the dynasty, it is weaker and susceptible to attack. Lycans openly attack as retribution for their inability to return to their home world, blaming the vampires for their suffering. And if being a leader of a vampire dynasty wasn't enough for Nicolas, he comes across a woman that holds a secret, one that will change his world forever. Rowan didn't want to fall for the charming womaniser; she wanted to hide from the pain that his influence on her life has caused. But some secrets aren't meant to be kept. Distracted by the issues in his life, Nicolas doesn't see the dark figure in the background, hiding in the shadows. Slowly the figure brings their plan for complete domination into fruition, gaining more power with each passing day. The ultimate prize is worth fighting for, and the shadow figure will do whatever it takes to get it, even if it means death. Stopping the shadow figure at every turn, Nicolas does everything he can to protect those that he loves and in doing so, becomes something that he never believed possible.

Book Description
The second book in the critically acclaimed Obsidian and Blood trilogy: The year is Two House, and the Emperor of the Mexica has just died. The protections he afforded the Empire are crumbling, and the way lies wide open to the flesh-eating star-demons--and to the return of their creator, a malevolent goddess only held in check by the War God's power. The council should convene to choose a new Emperor, but they are too busy plotting against each other. And then someone starts summoning star-demons within the palace, to kill councilmen... Acatl, High Priest of the Dead, must find the culprit before everything is torn apart. REVIEWS: ‘Political intrigue and rivalry among a complex pantheon of divinities drive this well-paced murder mystery set at the height of the Aztec Empire in the late 15th century. De Bodard reintroduces the series hero Acatl, high priest of the dead, immediately following the death of the Tenochtitlan leader. One of the council members in charge of choosing a successor has been brutally murdered in what looks like an attempt to influence the decision. But the deaths continue and the political situation grows more complex, while the empire looks to be increasingly at risk of invasion by malignant powers. Acatl must go face-to-face with the most powerful god in his world and put the good of the empire above his antipathy for is rivals to achieve the uneasy succession. De Bodard incorporates historical fact with great ease and manages the rare feat of explaining complex culture and political system without lecturing or boring the reader.’ —Publishers Weekly ‘Another thing that intrigues me here is the whole fact that historically we know that the real empire died out mysteriously and completely and as such there is always that thought in the back of my mind that the author could choose to bring about the end of days. That highlighted sense of possible doom is something that is missing from too many novels. The way the story is told in this book is very impressive, the plot is both mature and seductive, twisting and turning like a weather vane in a force 9 gale while the action is both bloodthirsty and imaginative. The world building is fantastic and we get to learn even more of this rich culture and the many gods and creatures of the dark. I really can’t fault this book at all and recommend it to one and all but if you haven’t yet read Servant of the Underworld I suggest that you get them both and read them in order, you won’t be disappointed.’ —SF Book Reviews ‘Bodard’s writing is polished and striking, as she convincingly fills in the colorful elements of the Aztec culture–even if those colors tend to be of blood and bile as well as flowers and hummingbirds... beautiful, grimy, breathtaking, and morbid. 5*’ —Examiner ‘Aliette de Bodard has done it again. Harbinger of the Storm is an action packed Aztec mystery opera with magic, interventions from the gods and more twists and turns than the first book. It even has a love story with amusing snippets here and there... The story is self contained and can be enjoyed standalone, but you will not want to miss out on the first. I wish it was 2012 already even if the world is going under while I read the final Obsidian & Blood.’ —Cybermage

Book Description
With its easy-to-read and personal style, this book provides some intriguing new explanations of the physiology of death and the dying experience.--Susan Blackmore, PhD, Author of Dying to LiveDying is the last conscious experience undergone by each person. But what do the dying experience? In the last few decades a good deal of publicity has surrounded people who have been close to death and then reported intense experiences that seem to suggest a supernatural existence beyond death. Does the conscious mind somehow continue to exist after the body has passed away? Mortal Minds answers these questions.Dr. G. M. Woerlee explains how the normal functioning of the human body near death can generate beliefs in the reality of the supernatural and life after death. An anesthesiologist with more than twenty years of hospital experience, Dr. Woerlee has been struck over the years by the similarities between the body's symptoms under anesthesia and its reactions near death. Among the issues he addresses are the sensations of being disembodied that those near death often describe, the perception that mind and body are separate components of existence, whether there is such a thing as a soul, the physical effects of decreased oxygen to the brain, and the visions that the dying sometimes report, from rapturous experiences of eternal peace to diabolical dreams.While not dismissing near death experiences as mere hallucinations, Dr. Woerlee is also careful to point out that even powerful psychological impressions by themselves do not constitute scientific proof of life after death. Taking this balanced, objective stance, he succeeds in conveying a better understanding of the dying process and helping us all to realize the nature of these final experiences.G. M. Woerlee (Leiden, The Netherlands) is an anesthesiologist affiliated with the Rijnland Hospital in Leiderdorp, The Netherlands, and the author of two books on anesthesiology.

Book Description
Historical Phases of Prophetic Teaching is the culmination of the author Evelyn Theresa Watson's forty years of biblical research that authenticates the Bible's statutory code of ethics. The code, representing the moral principles of covenant law, judgment, and statute manner, is disclosed in a pattern of doctrinal precepts within metaphoric and parabolic prophecy. This pattern evolved into doctrinal guidelines that appear on the only Bible-based slide rule of its kind, the Mortal/ Immortal Golden Rule of Measure. Volume I consists of a manual with illustrations of Old and New Testament text that show the reader how to use the Ark of the Covenant terms on the ruler to loose the seals of biblical prophecy. The present century marks four thousand years of Judaic Christian history and the end times of biblical prophecy. This recorded time period completes the history of the former Judaic generations and the latter Christian generation in their search for God. However, the search continues for an all-inclusive deity that will unite all nations in the universality of one God. The world's search for a unifying deity will advance when individuals accept the one true God based on Genesis One as the reality of "it was good... and it was so." The author's commentary offers the reader an opportunity to become a scholar of honor testifying to the efficacy of scriptural and gospel prophecy.
