Book Description
From the author of The Merlin Prophecy, the historical trilogy that “appeals to those who thrill to Game of Thrones” (Kirkus Reviews)—the third installment in the epic, action-packed story of King Arthur. Celtic Britain is on the brink of collapse, and the kingdom’s bloodiest days are upon it. For many years, the people of Britain have enjoyed peace and prosperity under the reign of King Arthur. But Arthur is now weakening with age, and the seeds of discontent are being sown. Seeking to cleanse the land of Christian belief, dissenters need a symbol with which to legitimize their pagan claim and unite the malcontents. They seize upon the ancient Cup of Bishop Lucius of Glastonbury as a way of fragmenting Arthur’s hard-earned kingdom. The ultimate threat to Arthur’s rule lies far closer to home: his own kin will betray him. Celt will slay Celt and the rivers will run with blood. Will all be lost, or can Arthur conquer the mounting forces before it’s too late?

The Soul's Ministrations
Author: Marianne Tauber
Publisher: Chiron Publications
ISBN: 1630511048
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
When her husband was diagnosed with a serious brain tumor, Marianne Tauber turned to art-painting and poetry-to cope with the situation. Years later, she explicates what was behind the drive to create, presenting seventeen paintings and poems alongside a narrative of the time of crisis in journal form and then delving into the concepts of Jungian psychology and alchemy to make sense of the images and their healing effect. "This is a gripping and powerful book, catalyzed by crisis and personal tragedy, but born of an imaginative and courageous spirit. Through her meditative discipline, painting, and poetry, Tauber looks unflinchingly into the darkest depths of her soul. Creatively developing an alchemical active imagination, she follows an arduous path, not only to psychological survival, but to redemption, greater wholeness, and wisdom. Replete with archetypal and symbolic amplifications, The Soul's Ministrations is a significant and scholarly contribution to Jungian literature and a valuable guide to anyone who must struggle with the tragic aspects of life or wishes to learn about the creative depths of the psyche." -Stanton Marlan, Ph.D., ABPP

Coming to America
Author: Ian Broadbridge
Publisher: Page Publishing Inc
ISBN: 1662475616
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 708
Book Description
This is a true story about a young Englishman's quest to live and work in America after he tragically lost both of his parents to natural causes within two days of each other whilst on holiday on the Mediterranean island of Malta in October 1981. He came to America--to New York City--on the thirtieth of June 1985 with just two hundred dollars in his pocket. He had no relatives' or friends' shoulders to lean on when things became rough; he just had his drive and entrepreneurship to keep him going. It was rough for him during the first seven years--living in squalor in Kansas City, Missouri; not having electric in apartments and not having a car in Columbia, South Carolina; getting involved in a life-threatening car accident in Perry, Florida; having bicycles stolen in Valdosta, Georgia; and working illegally for those seven years with fake Social Security numbers. He eventually ended up living and working in Columbia, where he met and fell in love with his wife-to-be whilst working at a restaurant as a waiter. He proposed to his wife-to-be just before Christmas 1991. In July 1992, the young man travelled back to England to see his siblings, nephews, and nieces, and also to get his B1/B2 visa renewed. When he attempted to come back to America, the INS--the Immigration and Naturalisation Service--cornered him after suspecting that he was coming to America to work illegally. After they searched his pockets, their suspicions were correct. They had no other choice than to deport him and send him back to the UK. He was allowed one telephone call--just like citizens that have been arrested are allowed. That call was made to his fiancee. Sobbing, he said for her to forget about him. He was then escorted back to the aeroplane on which he flew back to England, thinking that he would never see his fiancee again. That's not the end of the story; just like in the fairy tales where the knight in shining armour rescues the damsel in distress, it was the other way around in this story; the damsel rescued the knight by obtaining a passport, travelling by herself to England, and sweeping the knight off his feet by marrying him! It was relatively plain sailing after that for the young man to be able to come back to America to live and work legally and to be with the love of his life.
