Book Description
When Danae Baledric flees her homeland in search of a cure for a degenerative malady that's killing her father, she never expects the journey to teach her the price of her own ignorance. On a trek across foreign lands, Danae learns that beyond her own struggle, an eternal war rages. That conflict claims its victims one soul at a time.Danae's investigation reveals not only that her father teeters close to falling victim to sinister machinations, but also how her magical dabbling has spurred a hunt for her. Power, even employed in ignorance, has a cost.An unexpected ally extends to Danae a chance to conquer her father's fate. This same chance also offers her deliverance from a debt she never realized her enemies were tallying against her. But something bars Danae from claiming redemption-her insistence that she must achieve her goals in her own strength.It's an epic tale of curses and miracles, where headstrong ignorance creates bondage, and the desire to serve offers freedom.

Book Description
The practice of cursing remains a significant aspect of life in many African countries. This book addresses this practice with the seriousness it deserves, arguing that Christ is the ultimate curse remover. Dr. Elkanah K. Cheboi examines the meaning and implications of the Pauline statement in Galatians that “Christ became a curse for us.” Drawing from biblical passages referencing judicial curses, and the widespread practice of cursing and blessing within the Ancient Near East and Greco-Roman world, he investigates how the crucified and cursed Christ provides the ultimate solution to the power and dominion of curses. Demonstrating the insufficiencies of curse remedies, both in the ancient world and the modern African context, this study offers christological insight into the implications of Christ’s death not simply for human sin but also human curses. Dr. Cheboi specifically examines parallels between the New Testament context and Kenya’s Marakwet culture, where curses are still deeply feared as life-threatening and generational. Offering powerful insight into aspects of contemporary African culture not always fully understood, this book integrates biblical scholarship with practical application and is an excellent resource for pastors, missionaries, and theologians alike.
