Book Three in ‘The Lost Luna Series’ When I turned seventeen, I went to see the local witch and she told me what my future held in store. It would be full of love, pain, and anguish.

Pages : 136
Book Description
Damekio Gardner was the girl who had it all: designer clothes, lavish jewelry, fancy cars, and a few streetwise hustlers to provide it all. After dating Miles for a while, her life became a continuous, vicious cycle, dating one thug after another, all of whom wanted to live their lives in the fast lane. Her life was consumed by street drama, destruction, and tragedy.

The Roman Empire at Bay, AD 180-395
Author: David S. Potter
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134694849
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 986
Book Description
The Roman Empire at Bay is the only one volume history of the critical years 180-395 AD, which saw the transformation of the Roman Empire from a unitary state centred on Rome, into a new polity with two capitals and a new religion—Christianity. The book integrates social and intellectual history into the narrative, looking to explore the relationship between contingent events and deeper structure. It also covers an amazingly dramatic narrative from the civil wars after the death of Commodus through the conversion of Constantine to the arrival of the Goths in the Roman Empire, setting in motion the final collapse of the western empire. The new edition takes account of important new scholarship in questions of Roman identity, on economy and society as well as work on the age of Constantine, which has advanced significantly in the last decade, while recent archaeological and art historical work is more fully drawn into the narrative. At its core, the central question that drives The Roman Empire at Bay remains, what did it mean to be a Roman and how did that meaning change as the empire changed? Updated for a new generation of students, this book remains a crucial tool in the study of this period.

Pages : 294
Book Description
The Seven Indomitable Sins and The Seven Almighty Virtues are awakening. Yhwh and Lucifer have called in their best soldiers to begin gathering them. Only the seven will be able to stand against the oncoming calamity. Who will find all seven in time? Which team will remain standing by the time the smoke clears? Wrath: Karma Strickland, a 23 year old who wants nothing more than to put the past behind her and just be normal. At least, as normal as one girl can be with killer anger issues and the ability to set things on fire with her mind. That dream is effectively pulled from her grasp when the Legendary Horseman of War shows up on her doorstep claiming she’s destined to lead the Seven Indomitable Sins. Oh, and he’s going to be the one to train her. War and Wrath, must be a match made in Hell. Patience: Medusa Sinclair, a small town girl from Telluride, Colorado that favors the simple things in life. The last word she would ever use to describe herself is ‘extraordinary’ and most of the people in her life would agree. The Archangel Michael, however, insists that she is The Almighty Virtue of Patience and that she must have some type of magic that will assist her in leading the rest of the Virtues. Hopefully Michael’s “training” methods don’t break her in the process.
