Book Description
Lumerian Knight Falden Corshival is an ancient. Leader of what remains of his people, he and his elite warriors have avoided capture for more than two thousand years. He believed they were safe on Earth. He was wrong. When a nosy investigative reporter sets up a ‘blind date’ with an alien group dealing in the Intergalactic black market, Falden knows he must do whatever it takes to find out who she is and what she knows, including pretending to be her unknown contact. Unfortunately, Falden has spent a millennia out of the dating scene. Worse, he has no understanding of human courting rituals. Isabella Serrano is in danger. Her friend has disappeared, her contacts on the street are scared, and her only chance to infiltrate the alien black market is to accept a ‘blind’ meeting with one of the smugglers. When her ‘blind date’ turns out to be a drop-dead gorgeous alien with a bad attitude, something just doesn't add up. She can't decide if she'd rather kiss the dominant alpha or stab him in the eye with her four-inch heel. When a surprise attack forces them to escape together, she will have to trust him with her life. They soon give in to white-hot passion, yet both have secrets that could tear them apart. Will their growing love be enough to overcome the dangers that lie ahead? *If you love romance in the style of Nalini Singh, Christine Feehan, Grace Goodwin, J.R. Ward, Lara Adrian, S. E.

Book Description
The central theme of this book is Helen Keller's mind. Each chapter looks at her cognitive development through a different lens, including esotericism and the evolution of consciousness. Humanity in our era is facing unprecedented challenges as technological changes outpace the evolution of the human mind. Intellect alone will not save us from climate change, viral pandemics, the rise of the surveillance state, unfettered genetic experiments, synthetic biology, slaughter bots, drone warfare, uneducated masses who would vote again for Fascism, and endless patriarchal wars. We need to open the portals and let the life-affirming elves back in-that was Helen Keller's message to us; we need the magic powers of esotericism to balance the cold logic of artificial intelligence. The rare flower that was Helen Keller is now a universal memory; she is a role model for the rest of us, especially on the days when we are complaining about our lot in life. Whatever energy flowed through her-whatever we choose to call this mystery that brought forth the flower-it was positive energy, life-affirming, hopeful, and loving; it was also the source of Helen's unshakable Faith, a well-spring of inexplicable, intuitive energy that radiated from her essence. Somehow, the energy that entered her could also be radiated outward-almost everyone she met commented on her radiance. Undetected energy is constantly entering and leaving the human body, affecting our mind in subtle ways. This esoteric (hidden) energy must somehow be related to the functioning of the mind and to the evolution of human consciousness. How do human minds work? What is consciousness and how did it arise? The Esoteric Helen Keller is an exploration of cognitive evolution applied to the unfolding of Helen Keller's remarkable deaf-blind mind..

Book Description
"Bold, deeply learned, and important, offering a provocative thesis that is worked out through legal and archival materials and in subtle and original readings of literary texts. Absolutely new in content and significantly innovative in methodology and argument, Stumbling Blocks Before the Blind offers a cultural geography of medieval blindness that invites us to be more discriminating about how we think of geographies of disability today." ---Christopher Baswell, Columbia University "A challenging, interesting, and timely book that is also very well written . . . Wheatley has researched and brought together a leitmotiv that I never would have guessed was so pervasive, so intriguing, so worthy of a book." ---Jody Enders, University of California, Santa Barbara Stumbling Blocks Before the Blind presents the first comprehensive exploration of a disability in the Middle Ages, drawing on the literature, history, art history, and religious discourse of England and France. It relates current theories of disability to the cultural and institutional constructions of blindness in the eleventh through fifteenth centuries, examining the surprising differences in the treatment of blind people and the responses to blindness in these two countries. The book shows that pernicious attitudes about blindness were partially offset by innovations and ameliorations---social; literary; and, to an extent, medical---that began to foster a fuller understanding and acceptance of blindness. A number of practices and institutions in France, both positive and negative---blinding as punishment, the foundation of hospices for the blind, and some medical treatment---resulted in not only attitudes that commodified human sight but also inhumane satire against the blind in French literature, both secular and religious. Anglo-Saxon and later medieval England differed markedly in all three of these areas, and the less prominent position of blind people in society resulted in noticeably fewer cruel representations in literature. This book will interest students of literature, history, art history, and religion because it will provide clear contexts for considering any medieval artifact relating to blindness---a literary text, a historical document, a theological treatise, or a work of art. For some readers, the book will serve as an introduction to the field of disability studies, an area of increasing interest both within and outside of the academy. Edward Wheatley is Surtz Professor of Medieval Literature at Loyola University, Chicago.

Book Description
They do not wear shining armor, nor do they carry colorful banners. Their names are unknown to the average citizen, but their commands carry weight over all but the king. They are the world's masters in warfare and magic. They are the Knights of Alcea. The days of warfare and Darkness were supposedly over, and the Knights of Alcea had scattered across the huge nation, returning to their private lives, their services no longer required. Unknown to them, a storm is rising over the horizon. When seemingly senseless acts of violence erupt across the breadth of Alcea, the Knights of Alcea are drawn back into action, but their enemies are shrouded in secrecy as they move forward with a diabolical plan designed to crush Alcea forever.

Book Description
Russian Folktales (also translated as Russian Fairy Tales) is a collection of folktales in the Russian language, collected and edited in the 19th century by folklorist A. N. Afanasyev. Despite the title, these stories are not just Russian ones, but are also folk and fairy tales told by people from many eastern Slavic-speaking regions like Belarus and Ukraine. The stories in this collection focus both on pre-Christian elements like spirits and pagan entities, and Christian elements like saints, angels, and apostles, who appear as characters in some of the stories. References to God and liturgical practices abound. Although traditional tales like these don’t form a uniform and consistent corpus, some stock characters appear in several stories, like Koshchéy the Deathless, Iván Tsárevich, and Bába Yága. This edition is based on the 1916 translation by Leonard A. Magnus, who curated a selection of stories from Afanasyev’s original Russian edition. The Russian edition is much larger, with over five hundred stories in total. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.
