Book Description
In her infinite goodness, the Goddess Ivy created a world divided into different spheres, one for each type of creature who would agree to worship Her. This is how the Divine Lands were born. Among these lands was the Vampire Sphere which, as the name suggests, housed the creatures of the night. From the Lycans to the Ghoules, passing by the Incubes and other Farfadets, beyond the small villages of mortals like Dorelys, Lake De La Luna and the dangerous forest of the Abymes, reigned the great City which bore the name Pandemonia, stronghold of the Vampires, where the sun never rose. It was there that Kate-Lynn ran aground, a young mortal who had unwittingly turned Vampire, following the request of her Lord named Valek, who had made her understand that it was in this City that she had to go in order to 'find protection there. He was supposed to join her, but everything did not go as planned ...

Let the Reader Understand
Author: Edwin K. Broadhead
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0567674061
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
This book honors the extraordinary contribution of Elizabeth Struthers Malbon to biblical studies. In the opening chapter, Werner Kelber places Malbon's work within the larger context of critical reflection, from antiquity to the modern era, on the role and function of discourse. Kelber locates Malbon's approach squarely within the framework of modernity and concludes that her “supremely creative achievement has been the employment of modern, narrative critical tools with a view toward uncovering the fecundity of the gospel of Mark.” Drawing from and conversing with Professor Malbon's extensive publications, each of the five sections engages a theme from her works, focusing particularly on the Gospel of Mark. This tribute includes meaning as narrative, issues in methodology, studies in characterization, narrative readings of specific texts, and aesthetic and political readings. Contributors include: Werner H. Kelber; R. Alan Culpepper; Kelly R. Iverson; Mikeal C. Parsons; David Barr; David J.A. Clines; Robert C. Tannehill; J. Cheryl Exum; Heidi Hornik and Richard Walsh.

Pages : 626
Book Description
OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK • INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • SUBJECT OF A SIX-PART SUPER SOUL PODCAST SERIES HOSTED BY OPRAH WINFREY From the New York Times-bestselling author of Cutting for Stone comes a stunning and magisterial epic of love, faith, and medicine, set in Kerala, South India, following three generations of a family seeking the answers to a strange secret “One of the best books I’ve read in my entire life. It’s epic. It’s transportive . . . It was unputdownable!”—Oprah Winfrey, OprahDaily.com The Covenant of Water is the long-awaited new novel by Abraham Verghese, the author of the major word-of-mouth bestseller Cutting for Stone, which has sold over 1.5 million copies in the United States alone and remained on the New York Times bestseller list for over two years. Spanning the years 1900 to 1977, The Covenant of Water is set in Kerala, on South India’s Malabar Coast, and follows three generations of a family that suffers a peculiar affliction: in every generation, at least one person dies by drowning—and in Kerala, water is everywhere. At the turn of the century, a twelve-year-old girl from Kerala’s long-existing Christian community, grieving the death of her father, is sent by boat to her wedding, where she will meet her forty-year-old husband for the first time. From this unforgettable new beginning, the young girl—and future matriarch, known as Big Ammachi—will witness unthinkable changes over the span of her extraordinary life, full of joy and triumph as well as hardship and loss, her faith and love the only constants. A shimmering evocation of a bygone India and of the passage of time itself, The Covenant of Water is a hymn to progress in medicine and to human understanding, and a humbling testament to the difficulties undergone by past generations for the sake of those alive today. It is one of the most masterful literary novels published in recent years.

Book Description
Meet Earl Grey, a down-to-earth and down on his luck small-time newspaper reporter. Earl is a bit of an unreliable mess, albeit loveable, if absolutely necessary. Much to Earl's complete lack of surprise, he's about to have an even worse week than his usual misfortunes. Two days after the earth-shattering arrival of an alleged God in Phoenix, Arizona, in 2005, Earl is appointed as Media Liaison to this extremely ungodlike man discovered wearing Armani in the nearby barren desert. With God now confined to a hospital room, Earl suddenly finds himself with exclusive access to the Almighty. And with great access comes great demand, as our less than intrepid reporter quickly discovers, meeting a feast of both loveable and despicable characters. All of whom are not entirely what they seem. But one thing is certain, they all want something from this newly arrived God and plan to go through Earl to get it. However, Earl, a lifelong atheist and skeptic, has other plans and sets about to uncover this unusual man's true identity before His time on earth runs out. Thrust into global celebrity and a massive mid-life course correction, it isn't long before Earl is overwhelmed, paranoid, and plagued with crippling self-doubt. But, as usual, he'll have to sort out the whole mess by himself. Hopefully, before the world comes to an end.
