The Last Days of Old Sharakhai
Author: Bradley P. Beaulieu
Publisher: Quillings Literary
ISBN: 1939649439
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
The Last Days of Old Sharakhai is a Shattered Sands novella set near the end of A Desert Torn Asunder (Book 6 of The Song of the Shattered Sands) and answers the question: What happened to King Ihsan? King Ihsan, once thought invincible, is now a fugitive in the city he once ruled. Struck by the black mould, a deadly wasting disease, Ihsan knows his days of ruling Sharakhai are coming to an end. His goals are simpler now. He’s focused on his daughter Ransaneh and her prospects when he’s gone, and that means forging a lasting peace in the desert. When Ihsan’s grandsons try to convince him to return Sharakhai to its former, authoritarian rule, he’s left with a difficult choice. Siding with his grandsons and the city’s old guard could easily rekindle hostilities and lead to a resumption of the devastating war with the desert tribes, while a refusal would instantly turn him and Ransaneh into targets for revenge. With very few friends left, Ihsan allies himself with Shohreh, a legendary swordswoman who mere months ago would gladly have killed Ihsan with her bare hands. But Shohreh bore witness to the terrible war that just ended. The last thing she wants is a return of the bloodshed. What follows is a game of assassins, political intrigue, and desperate flights as Ihsan tries to stay ahead of his enemies and set Sharakhai on a path toward peace.

Devotions from a Man on the Street
Author: Barry Douglas Bowers
Publisher: Dorrance Publishing
ISBN: 1480910422
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 215
Book Description
Devotions from a Man on the Street By: Barry Douglas Bowers Barry Douglas Bowers was a man of great passion. His life lived and breathed the essence of both great victory and confidence, to one that was relatable to us all. Barry lived and breathed the love of our Abba Father, but he was also a man like all of us. He was broken, bruised, defeated, and ashamed. Despite all of this, his heart was full of love—love for his family who were both near and far, separated yet reconciled by love, love for his friends, his brothers, and a family that was a far greater blessing than human flesh could provide. His devotions are for all. They aren’t about religion or great theology but reminiscent of the greats of saints and their blessed revelations. No, Barry was, and is, incomprehensibly the “Man on the Street.” He was all of us. He was our victory and he was our sorrow. His heart for this book would be to reach the other men and women “on the street” of life, not those who are blessed and favored in this world.
