Book Description
As time wears on in Nox, the Night Cursed beings are becoming more and more shunned and ostracized by the uncursed population. Mistrust is rising in all of the Districts and Xiara Evora is right in the middle of it. It’s her job to keep the peace in the City of Night, but her task is getting harder with each passing year. Crowmon, the trickster god, and Raum, the leader of the demons, have gained a lot of power over the years. Xiara suspects they are searching for a way to increase their standing even more, but she isn’t sure what their plans are. All she knows is that they’ll do anything to increase their influence and that they don’t care who will get hurt in the process. Xiara and her team make new friends and allies who will help them with their quest to save the Night Cursed from the Immortal Triumvirate. The unholy trinity fears treachery and they’re aware that someone will eventually try to topple them from their reign. Their solution to avoid their unwanted fate will have consequences that no one could have foreseen.

Book Description
Apocalyptic texts are often seen as either frightening or irrelevant, a tool for fearmongering and manipulation or for the lucrative doomsday industry. But Apocalypse When?: Interpreting and Preaching Apocalyptic Texts equips readers to understand these texts as sources of encouragement and strength for the church. As the world faces threats of war, poverty, climate and environmental crises, and political upheaval, churches can draw on the wisdom and courage of our biblical ancestors who faced their own calamities and persecutions. Their struggles against powerful economic, militaristic, cultural, and social forces drew them closer to God. We have much to learn from their faith, ethical integrity, and dedication to the promises of God that engender hope in the midst of turmoil and terror. With solid historical exegesis, thought-provoking ideas for preaching, and examples of sermons that creatively and compellingly proclaim God's word, this book provides much-needed guidance for the church in tumultuous times.

Book Description
In this volume, Elizabeth Phillips brings together scholarly essays on eschatology, ethics, and politics, as well as a selection of sermons preached in the chapels of the University of Cambridge arising from that scholarly work. These essays and sermons explore themes ranging from ethnography to Anabaptism and Christian Zionism to Afro-pessimism. Drawing on a wide range of authors from Flannery O’Conner and Herbert McCabe to James Cone and M. Shawn Copeland, this collection provides insight into the fields of Christian ethics and political theology, as well as ethnography and homiletics. Phillips challenges theologians to interdisciplinarity in their work, and to keep historical and traditional sources in conversation with contemporary sources from critical and liberative perspectives. She challenges Christians to engage in apocalyptic practices which name and resist the false pretenses of the political status quo. And she challenges preachers to call their congregations to moral and political faithfulness, opening up possibilities beyond both the squeamish evasion of politics in some preaching traditions and the didactic political partisanship of others.

Book Description
From its new headquarters, the Human Protection League (colloquially known as “The Lovecraft Squad”) must regroup against the rising tide of supernatural threats from such clandestine cults as The Olde Fellowes and The Esoteric Order of Dagon, who worship a group of ancient deities known as the Great Old Ones. As their unholy acolytes prepare to resurrect these multi-dimensional gods from their imprisonment beneath the earth and beyond the stars, the universe hovers on the brink of an Eldritch War such as it has never known before. The only thing that may stand between victory or the enslavement and eventual destruction of the human race itself is a man out of his own time—a writer, a visionary, a dreamer on the night-side . . .

Book Description
Prague, 1610 Ludmila Novakova--Mila--has barely set foot outside Prague Castle in her seventeen years. But with the choice between braving the bandits and wolves of Bohemia's uneasy roads or being married off to a disgusting old baron, she's taken what she can carry and fled. Escape won't be easy. Even Mila has heard the rumors of a rebellion coming against the court. The peasants are hungry. The king hasn't been seen in months. Mila's father, the High Chancellor, is well known and well hated. But Mila can't sit behind a stone wall and let fear force her into a life of silk gowns and certain misery. Her mother's death has taught her that much. She has one ally: Marc, the son of the blacksmith. A commoner, a Protestant--and perhaps a traitor, too. But the farther she gets from the castle, the more lies she uncovers, unraveling everything she thought she knew. And the harder it is to tell friend from enemy--and wrong from right . . .

Book Description
Prague, 1610 In a few short weeks seventeen-year-old Mila has gone from being Ludmila Novakova, pampered daughter of the High Chancellor of Bohemia, to becoming a traitor escaping the palace at midnight in her wedding nightgown. Her country is in chaos, an army is marching from Austria, and revolution is a breath away. Mila is caught in the middle, between the man she loves—Marc, the son of a blacksmith and a leader of the rebellion—and the murderer the Church calls her husband. Even as she flees with Marc into the heart of the resistance, where the suspicions of angry citizens make her every palace-born habit a danger, she knows he hasn’t told her everything. But Mila is keeping the biggest secret herself: she is the heir to the throne, the daughter of embattled King Rudolf and Princess of Bohemia. The truth will turn the fury of both sides against her, leaving Mila alone to win her country’s freedom—and her own . . . “A realistic historical novel with a fairy-tale feel.” —School Library Journal

Book Description
By connecting Shakespeare's language to the stunning artwork that depicted the end of the world, this study provides not only provides a new reading of Shakespeare but illustrates how apocalyptic art continues to influence popular culture today. Drawing on extant examples of medieval imagery, Roger Christofides uses poststructuralist and psychoanalytic accounts of how language works to shed new light on our understanding of Hamlet, Othello, Macbeth, and King Lear. He then links Shakespeare's dependence on his audience to appreciate the allusions made to the religious paintings to the present day. For instance, popular television series like Battlestar Galactica, seminal horror movies such as An American Werewolf in London and Carrie and recent novels like Cormac McCarthy's The Road. All draw on imagery that can be traced directly back to the depictions of the Doom, an indication of the cultural power these vivid imaginings of the end of the world have in Shakespeare's day and now.

Book Description
This bundle contains books one to three of the Saige Sterling: Badass Bounty Hunter series. Nexus: Saige Sterling is a curvy, confident hunter who has been training to kill monsters for a decade. She intends to become the premier bounty hunter in Nexus. First, she needs to make a name for herself so she will come to the attention of the boss of the hunters. All manner of creatures have come through gates from the underworld over the millennia. The supernatural creatures are forever stepping over the line and killing innocent humans. She won’t have a shortage of rogues to hunt down. During her quest to gain a job doing what she loves best, Saige witnesses a vampire murdering a human. She follows her target to a nightclub for supernatural beings where he thinks he’ll be safe. The brand-new bounty hunter won’t let anyone stop her from fulfilling her destiny. Not even a mob of angry monsters can slow her down for long. Unfortunately, Saige’s plans go awry and her target isn’t who he seems to be. His boss is a sexy weredragon who won’t be pleased if she turns his minion to ash. The dragon offers her a deal, but first she needs to prove herself to him. Accepting his bargain will be the first step in achieving her dreams, but it will throw her life into turmoil that she couldn’t possibly foresee. Conflux: Saige Sterling has been working as a bounty hunter for her weredragon boss for six months now. Drake Gilden is a sexy enigma that she isn’t sure she’ll ever be able to figure out. They have undeniable chemistry, but she’s so far beneath him in the supernatural hierarchy that she knows he’s out of her league. When Saige and Ruen, her reluctant vampire partner, came back from the first realm of the underworld, they didn’t return alone. Saige now has a new roommate. Aurora is still learning about the new dimension she’s been drawn to. Her powers have the habit of leaking out onto Saige. It’s something she’s going to have to learn how to control, before it drives the bounty hunter crazy. Stealing one of the mysterious scroll fragments from the rulers of the underworld should have been enough to stop the coming apocalypse. Lord Gilden is determined to have them all in his grasp. He sends the unlikely trio to the second realm in search of the next piece of the enchantment. With Saige’s mixed genes, she has no idea if she’ll be the same type of monster that she was in the first realm, or if she’ll turn into something completely different. Vortex: Saige is still adjusting to having a sex demon for a roommate, but it’s getting easier now that Aurora has her own bed to sleep in. She wished her strange relationship with Drake Gilden would run as smoothly. Unfortunately, it just keeps getting more complicated. For the first time, all of Lord Gilden’s bounty hunters will be called on to work together on a job. Saige will finally get to see why he hired the two puny humans who are on their team. She will also get a chance to shine and show them exactly why the weredragon hired her. Saige’s fame as a bounty hunter is growing with each new mission she accomplishes. Few in the supernatural community in Nexus are aware that she has a secret task in the underworld. So far, the huntress, her vampire sidekick and best friend have retrieved two fragments of a magical scroll. The monsters and beasts are becoming more dangerous with each realm they visit. So are the guardians who are guarding the spells.
