Book Description
From the award winning author of Sir Laurence Dies comes this epic fantasy tale, the 3rd book in his Osirian series. The Songs of the Osirian fall silent. At the twilight of Ra's rule, he sent his daughter, Sekhmet, to punish mankind. But her blood-lust became uncontrollable. The Osirian pleaded with Ra to stop her. He filled the Nile River with beer mixed in pomegranate juice. Sekhmet, mistaking it for blood, drank it all. Tricked and drunk, she recognised too late the betrayal. So, Sekhmet gave up the slaughter and in grief, Ra locked her in the void, never to return. But now, Ra is gone. The Osirian defending mankind dwindle, their power fading. As Sam and Akhet work to unravel the Dark Lord Beast's plan, it leads them to Sekhmet. The forces of light must fight to stop her from rising again, or the balance of power may shift to Beast's unearthly hands...

Book Description
An innovative and elegant new biography of John Milton from an acclaimed Oxford professor John Milton was once essential reading for visionaries and revolutionaries, from William Blake to Ben Franklin. Now, however, he has become a literary institution—intimidating rather than inspiring. In Making Darkness Light, Oxford professor Joe Moshenska rediscovers a poet whose rich contradictions confound his monumental image. Immersing ourselves in the rhythms and textures of Milton’s world, we move from the music of his childhood home to his encounter with Galileo in Florence into his idiosyncratic belief system and his strange, electrifying imagination. Making Darkness Light will change the way we think about Milton, the place of his writings in his life, and his life in history. It is also a book about Milton’s place in our times: about our relationship with the Western canon, about why and how we read, and about what happens when we let someone else’s ideas inflect our own.

Book Description
Paul and his companions must save Europe from the brink of catastrophe—the final installment in a “one-of-a-kind series” that reads like “if you put Breaking Bad and Reddit in a blender” (Barnes & Noble Sci-Fi Blog) America has long sent its best SMASH agents overseas to deal with the European crisis. As of today, they decided dismantling your operation was more important than containing the Bastogne Broach. Now, you’re dealing with the real professionals: Paul Tsabo: Bureaucromancer. Political activist. Loving father. His efforts to decriminalize magic have made him the government’s #1 enemy—and his fugitive existence has robbed his daughter of a normal life. Aliyah Tsabo-Dawson: Videogamemancer. Gifted unearthly powers by a terrorist’s magic. Raised by a family of magicians, she’s the world’s loneliest teenager—because her powers might kill anyone she befriends. The Unimancers: Brain-burned zombies. Former ‘mancers, tortured into becoming agents of the government’s anti-‘mancer squad. An unstoppable hive-mind. When Paul accidentally opens up the first unsealed dimensional broach on American soil, the Unimancers lead his family in a cat-and-mouse pursuit all the way to the demon-haunted ruins of Europe—where Aliyah is slowly corrupted by the siren call of the Unimancers . . .

Book Description
The conflict and contact between Muslims and Christians in the Middle Ages is among the most important but least appreciated developments of the period from the seventh to the fourteenth century. Michael Frassetto argues that the relationship between these two faiths during the Middle Ages was essential to the cultural and religious developments of Christianity and Islam—even as Christians and Muslims often found themselves engaged in violent conflict. Frassetto traces the history of those conflicts and argues that these holy wars helped create the identity that defined the essential characteristics of Christians and Muslims. The polemic works that often accompanied these holy wars was important, Frassetto contends, because by defining the essential evil of the enemy, Christian authors were also defining their own beliefs and practices. Holy war was not the only defining element of the relationship between Christians and Muslims during the Middle Ages, and Frassetto explains that everyday contacts between Christian and Muslim leaders and scholars generated more peaceful relations and shaped the literary, intellectual, and religious culture that defined medieval and even modern Christianity and Islam.
