Book Description
Godlike, Richard Hell's second novel, combines the grit, wit, and invention of Go Now with the charged lyricism and emotional implosiveness of his music. Godlike is a heartwrenching tale of one whose values in life are the values of poetry. Set largely in the early '70s, but structured as a middle-aged poet's 1997 notebooks and drafts for a memoir-novel, the book recounts the story of a young man's affair with a remarkable teenage poet.

The Courtyard of Hell

Pages :
Book Description
The Courtyard of Hell is an adventure campaign for GODLIKE, the acclaimed roleplaying game of deadly action and superheroic courage in World War II. It focuses on one brutal week of urban combat in the Italian campaign: the Battle of Ortona in December 1943. The player characters are Canadian, American, and British “Talents,” or superpowered commandos trained to combat Hitler’s prized “Übermenschen.” The Talents accompany determined, veteran Canadian units as they attempt to wrest the town of Ortona from a regiment of elite German paratroopers. The Canadians have an advantage in tanks and artillery, but the Germans have turned the town into a virtual fortress. Unknown to either side, the two forces are equal in number. It was for good reason that British Prime Minister Winston Churchill dubbed Ortona “Little Stalingrad.” “It wasn’t hell. It was the courtyard of hell. It was a maelstrom of noise and hot, splitting steel... the rattling of machine guns never stops... wounded men refuse to leave, and the men don’t want to be relieved after seven days and seven nights... the battlefield is still an appalling thing to see, in its mud, ruin, dead, and its blight and desolation.” —Matthew Halton, War Correspondent, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation The Courtyard of Hell includes: * Fifteen scenes of suspenseful action, enough for months of adventure. * Details on character creation for the Ortona campaign. * The weapons, equipment, vehicles, and organizations of the Allied and Axis forces. * Dozens of enemy characters. * “One Roll Cityfight,” a new system for generating instant missions of urban combat to surprise and challenge players.

Satan Has No Authority Over God’s Soldier
Author: R. C. Jette
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 153269461X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 75
Book Description
This book is meant to illuminate Godlike faith through defining it, giving clarification where it comes from, revealing how to walk in it, and divulging what it is capable of doing. God's soldiers must remember that we are in the army of the Lord. We are fighting a supernatural enemy bent on our destruction. Only Godlike faith knows that Satan has no authority or power over us. That knowledge equips us with the ability to overcome the satanic designs that are aimed at our destruction. However, many Christians are not walking in Godlike faith or living a victorious life in Christ. Many are overwhelmed by defeat and discouragement, and are allowing Satan to take authority or power that he does not have. It's time to walk in the truth that Christ took his authority and gave it to God's soldiers. As we learn to walk in the mind of Christ, we have Godlike faith that gives no place to Satan, his demons, or his diabolical plans to destroy us. By the time this book is read to the end, God's soldiers will take authority over all satanic designs, change the entailment, and live a victorious life through Godlike faith.

Homer on Life and Death
Author: Jasper Griffin
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 9780198140269

Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
This book demonstrates how Homeric poetry manages to confer significance on persons and actions, interpreting the world and the lives of the people who inhabit it. Taking central themes like characterization, death, and the gods, the author argues that current ideas of the limitations of "oral poetry" are unreal, and that Homer embodies a view of the world both unique and profound.
