Book Description
USA Today bestseller For five centuries, a witch’s curse has bound the trolls to their city beneath the ruins of Forsaken Mountain—time enough for their nefarious magic to fade from human memory and into myth. But a prophecy has spoken of a union that will set the trolls free, and when Cécile de Troyes is taken beneath the mountain, she learns there is far more to the myth than she could have imagined. Cécile has only one thing on her mind after she is brought to Trollus: escape. But if she is to succeed, she must bide her time and find a way to outsmart the clever, fast, and inhumanly strong trolls that hold her captive. But while awaiting the perfect opportunity, Cécile unexpectedly falls for the enigmatic troll prince to whom she has been bonded and married. Their love gradually changes her perspective, opening her heart to new friends and opening her eyes to the hardships of the enslaved half-troll, half-human creatures of Trollus. As rebellion brews and the political games of Trollus escalate, Cécile becomes more than a trapped father’s daughter. She becomes a princess, a witch, and the hope of a people—someone who has the power to change Trollus forever.

Sometimes, one must accomplish the impossible. Beneath the mountain, the king’s reign of tyranny is absolute; the one troll with the capacity to challenge him is imprisoned for treason.

Progeny
Author: Tirupur S. Gopalakrishnan
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN:
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
It is a monotonous cycle to be born as a child, grow as a youth, get married and again give birth to a child to keep the descendant going. After the initial months and years of marriage, the couples look to beget good children and bring them good personalities into the society. The importance attached to begetting progeny is that couples search for the answers for the delay in begetting Children and opt for other means to get their descendants when it is much delayed. This book by respectable Tirupur Sri S. Gopalakrishnan GK (as he is fondly known) has given numerous ways to know where the defect is and the means to correct it. He has penned down so many methodologies in determining the factors for denial and delay in progeny, thereby suggesting that valued couples look for the alternative to have the love and affection of the babies at the earliest. The sole aim of the author is to press the couples to look for the assertion of ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer to their question of having children through normal means and to start the process through other means at an earlier stage to spend happy days with those lovable kids they get by any means like test-tube babies, IVF else thro’ egg donors. The sole aim of the author is to see the couple blessed with the babies of their choice and bring them up as valuable citizens to see a powerful India as imagined by the late Dr A. P. J. Abdul Kalam.

Benedictine Maledictions
Author: Lester K. Little
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501727702
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
"'May they be cursed in town and cursed in the fields. May their barns be cursed and may their bones be cursed. May the fruit of their loins be cursed as well as the fruit of their lands.' French monks of the Middle Ages hurled curses like these at their enemies, seeking supernatural assistance when no secular judge could help them. In a long-awaited book written with elegance and erudition, Lester Little undertakes the first full-length study of these maledictions.... The book's focus is the way that religious communities—especially the monks who followed Benedict's Rule and hence were known by his name—used liturgical cursing to safeguard their integrity and their possessions, against both laymen and other ecclesiastics." —Journal of Social History

As Kalith’s search for his lost father continues, the nine gifted warriors are dealing with the recent murder of their mentor and adjusting to their new frivolous yet hectic lives in the palace, while trying to maintain their sanity against being constantly judged as freaks, paraded around like circus-men and derided for being the new king’s First Men in an unstable post-war kingdom. As The Nine try to find their foothold, while trying to stick together and survive as a team, a blood-curdling note from the forgotten past leads them into the musky cages of the snake infested land of the Vish Kanyas - the Village of Darkness. The Nine face their biggest nightmare yet as they encounter the nerve-wracking and enigmatic Black Princess and her pet Turbans, while trying to decipher the gruesome, twisted truth behind the macabre racket. An abduction of one of their own takes them into invading the cursed land of Ubhakrat, where accompanied by a valorous navigator with a vendetta of his own, The Nine finally stumble upon their ultimate fate - the reckoning of Tiyasa’s malediction. Choking on the prophecy that mind numbingly wove everything together and battling the twisted monsters unleashed by this strange land, The Nine ultimately step up to meet their nemesis - indestructibly powerful, brilliantly all calculating and paramount super villains - the Triad.
