Book Description
A new Path must be forged in the blood of heroes. General Sato is not the sentinel he once was. Confronted with the brutal realities of his order, he wrestles with his faith in the Path. Now, with the Maraman threat tainting the soil of Samas, Sato must decide if he should break from the Path for good or cling tightly to the tenets he's followed since he was a child. Abandoning Samas, Beast sailed in search of a simpler life where fighting for his own freedom was all that mattered. Now, commanding a juggernaut, one question bothers him most of all: What good is a warrior without a fight? The sentinels Shin hated now serve alongside the sin under her command. Her extraordinary aptitude for sacrifice has become her greatest source of shame. The one constant in her life is Corin, but even he knows she can’t hide from sacrifice forever. The Maraman emperor has arrived, and Shin might be the only one who can stop him. As Samas enters its darkest hour, the heroes it needs are farther away than ever. To survive, they must find a new way forward, a new Path, forged from the blood of the warriors of sun and moon.

Book Description
This boxed set includes all three books of the Reforged Trilogy, plus four short stories. - Crucible of Stars - A chance for escape becomes a chance for redemption. Maeve Cavainna is running and her wings won’t save her. The infamous bounty hunter, Logan Coldhand, chases close behind her and intends to drag Maeve back to the planet of Axis to collect the high price on her head. When he finally corners her, the long chase seems to be over… until a frightened alien girl stumbles into their fight and begs for their protection. Maeve and Logan call a reluctant end to their battle and promise to help the girl, but they have agreed to far more than they know. Can the fragile peace between hunter and mark hold long enough to save the lives that depend on them? - Sword of Dreams - Death isn’t done with them. For a church dedicated to the worship of death, the Cult of Nihil stubbornly refuses to die. When word reaches the bounty hunter who calls himself Logan Coldhand that the Central World Alliance is willing to pay for members of the congregation, he takes the job. Perhaps chasing death will help him recapture the thrill of the hunt, lost ever since the mark that got away. Halfway across the galaxy, Maeve and the rest of the Blue Phoenix crew are still struggling to rebuild their lives after a devastating encounter with the Nihilists. But when Captain Myles agrees to take on what should be a simple job – flying a team of archaeologists to the remote planet of Prianus – they find themselves pitted against old enemies and ancient terrors. - Forged - Before Maeve and the crew of the Blue Phoenix make their desperate bid to reforge the galaxy, each of them were first forged themselves in the crucible of galactic events. Forged includes four short stories that take place before Crucible of Stars and the rest of the Reforged Trilogy. - Purity: Maeve Cavainna was once a knight of Arcadia. How did she fall so far? - Little Hawk: A story of honor and childhood on Prianus. - Beauty By Night: An art thief seeks to recapture his humanity. - Songs and Sigils in Space: Tiberius hires a destitute fairy and the crew of the Blue Phoenix has a deadly – but profitable – encounter with the Nnyth. - Hammer of Time - Time heals all wounds. Duaal Sinnay may have banished Xartasia and the Devourers from Prianus, but they’re not gone. Maeve has gone to warn the Central World Alliance, but they have no interest in fairy tales and stories of monsters. So when rumors start of a mysterious White Queen promising the return of Arcadia, the Alliance takes no notice. Now it falls to the crew of the Blue Phoenix to discover what is happening. Maeve has little doubt that Xartasia is this White Queen, but if that’s true, then how can Devourers help her to bring back the kingdom that they themselves destroyed a century ago? Whatever the answer, it promises nothing good for the rest of the galaxy…

Book Description
The thrilling sequel to The Witch, the Sword, and the Cursed Knights, which takes readers even deeper into the legend of Camelot! Best friends Ellie Bettlebump and Caedmon Tuggle are different as the day is long. Caedmon’s a human, from a non-magical realm known as Wisconsin. Ellie, on the other hand, is full of magic—illegal magic. What they have in common is far more important, however. After the adventure of a lifetime, they are both officially Knights of the Round Table…in training. To graduate to the next level at the Knights Academy, they must complete three quests proving their heroism. If they fail, they’ll have to achieve the dreaded Impossible Quest, and repeat the same year forever. Unfortunately, their quests prove more than a little difficult. Ellie is exposed as a witch and her magic is locked away by the powerful DeJoie family. In an effort to free herself from their control, Ellie winds up embroiled in a plan that could ruin the Knights of the Round Table: steal the source of the knights' power, and a wicked sorcerer will restore her magic. As fate would have it, one of Caedmon's quests leads him to protect the source of the knights' power. If Caedmon wants to graduate—not to mention save the realms from certain disaster—he'll have to betray his best friend, forcing him to choose what truly matters most to him: knighthood or friendship. As centuries of secrets collide and an ancient evil arises, Ellie and Caedmon must overcome this test of loyalty and friendship. If they don't, they will lose more than their battle against evil forces keeping them apart. They will lose each other.

This is a sacred duty. Somebody has to leave home. Somebody has to go into the wide world and live among strangers. Someone must return with their skills and techniques. Today, it’s Maran’s turn. She’s a widow, so this sacred duty falls to her. She will be the wayfarer. She will leave the farmlands. Maran turns her eye towards Jura City, the capital of her people, citadel of the dwarves, a city of the greatest inequity.

Even against great odds, Maran believes that she can make a difference. If she can make it there, she can crack the strongest granite, just like weeds among stone.

Book Description
Key to a theology of scripture are the important issues of history, consciousness, rhetoric, and how theology functions in relation to interpretation of Christianity's religious texts. Seeking to address a critical problem in theology and the interpretation of scripture raised by modern historical consciousness, Ben Fulford argues for a densely historical and theological reading of scripture centered in a Christological rubric. The argument herein uncovers a figural pattern of divine action and presence in the sacred texts. Tracing the problem through the modern theological heritage, the author turns to a comparative account of theologically patterned reading represented by patristic theology in Gregory of Nazianzus and postliberal theology in its pivotal founder, Hans Frei. The book addresses the challenge of historicity and historical consciousness, argues for the relevance of pre-modern approaches to scripture, and offers a fresh and extensive account of two salient figures from the early and contemporary tradition, thus enacting a theology of retrieval as a resource on a present issue of vital importance.
