Book Description
Evil hangs over New Orleans, and the white witch, Sophie, is determined to protect her city...and take vengeance for the hurt done to someone she loves. Nothing will stop her from seeking revenge, not fear, not the risk of death, and absolutely not the sex-on-a-stick shifter who causes her heart--and her body--to constantly war with her head. He's dangerous. He's sexy. And she needs his help. What she doesn't need is a distraction. Ephraim knows better than to trust, especially a hauntingly beautiful white witch who could be his mate. When she shows up on his doorstep asking for help, both honor and his animal nature insist he stay near the sexy woman, even if she won't tell him what the hell he's supposed to do in this chess match against a deadly enemy. His shifter insists Sophie is his mate, but his heart won't listen, not until Sophie trusts him with everything. Her secrets. Her past. And her heart. She'll have to surrender everything if they are going to save New Orleans...and any hope for the future of mankind. The sixth—and final—story in the Alpha Guardians series will shake you to your core and set your heart on fire with a happily-ever-after that will stay with you long after you turn the final page.

American Horror Story and Philosophy
Author: Richard Greene
Publisher: Open Court Publishing
ISBN: 0812699742
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
In American Horror Story and Philosophy, philosophers with varying backgrounds and interests explore different aspects of this popular “erotic thriller” TV show, with its enthusiastic cult following and strong critical approval. The result is a collection of intriguing and provocative thoughts on deeper questions prompted by the creepy side of the human imagination. As an “anthology show,” American Horror Story has a unique structure in the horror genre because it explores distinct subgenres of horror in each season. As a result, each season raises its own set of philosophical issues. The show’s first season, Murder House, is a traditional haunted house story. Philosophical topics expounded here include: the moral issues pertaining to featuring a mass murderer as one of the season’s main protagonists; the problem of other minds—when I see an old hag, how can I know that you don’t see a sexy maid? And whether it is rationally justified to fear the Piggy Man. Season Two, Asylum, takes place inside a mid-twentieth-century mental hospital. Among other classic horror subgenres, this season includes story lines featuring demonic possession and space aliens. Chapters inspired by this season include such topics as: the ethics of investigative reporting and whistleblowing; personal identity and demonic possession; philosophical problems arising from eugenics; and the ethics and efficacy of torture. Season Three, Coven, focuses on witchcraft in the contemporary world. Chapters motivated by this season include: sisterhood and feminism as starkly demonstrated in a coven; the metaphysics of traditional voodoo zombies (in contrast to the currently fashionable “infected” zombies); the uses of violent revenge; and the metaphysics of reanimation. Season Four, Freak Show, takes place in a circus. Philosophical writers look at life under the Big Top as an example of “life imitating art”; several puzzles about personal identity and identity politics (crystallized in the two-headed girl, the bearded lady, and the lobster boy); the ethical question of honor and virtue among thieves; as well as several topics in social and political philosophy. Season Five, Hotel, is, among other disturbing material, about vampires. Chapters inspired by this season include: the ethics of creating vampire progeny; LGBT-related philosophical issues; and existentialism as it applies to serial killers, Season Six, Roanoke, often considered the most creative of the seasons so far, partly because of its employment of the style of documentaries with dramatic re-enactments, and its mimicry of The Blair Witch Project and Paranormal Activity. Among the philosophical themes explored here are what happens to moral obligations under the Blood Moon; the proper role of truth in storytelling; and the defensibility of cultural imperialism.
