Book Description
As she digs into the dark world of the supernatural, something darker digs into her. Jade's first attempt at tricking someone into service for one of Magnus's elite vampire clients turns ugly fast, and she barely escapes with her life. She was supposed to be luring the worst of humanity, not innocent victims. She can't just send fellow mortals to either eternal enslavement or certain death and come away without scars of her own. But one does not escape the world of the undead so easily. A fact that becomes clear when she witnesses a hit and run and realizes the woman whose life she is trying to save, just might be trying to take hers. Whatever she has stepped into is bad. Bad enough that it has Magnus afraid. And if something can make an ancient and powerful vampire afraid, then it has to be terrifying...

The Ismaili Assassins
Author: James Waterson
Publisher: Pen and Sword
ISBN: 1783461500
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
“A fascinating history . . . The Medieval conflict between Christians and Muslims has many similarities to the Middle East today.”—Firetrench The Ismaili Assassins were an underground group of political killers who were ready to kill Christians and Muslims alike with complete disregard for their own lives. Under the powerful control of an enigmatic grand master, these devoted murderers often slayed their victims in public, cultivating their terrifying reputation. They assumed disguises and their weapon of choice was a dagger. The dagger was blessed by the grand master and killing with it was a holy and sanctified act; poison or other methods of murder were forbidden to the followers of the sect. Surviving a mission was considered a deep dishonor and mothers rejoiced when they heard that their Assassin sons had died having completed their deadly acts. Unsurprisingly, their formidable reputation spread far and wide. In 1253, the Mongol chiefs were so fearful of them that they massacred and enslaved the Assassins’ women and children in an attempt to liquidate the sect. The English monarch, Edward I, was nearly dispatched by their blades and Richard the Lionheart’s reputation was sullied by his association with the Assassins’ murder of Conrad of Montferrat. The Ismaili Assassins explores the origins, actions and legacy of this notorious sect. Enriched with eyewitness accounts from Islamic and Western sources, this important book unlocks the history of the Crusades and the early Islamic period, giving the reader entry into a historical epoch that is thrilling and pertinent. “An inherently fascinating, deftly written, and impressively informative read from beginning to end.”—Midwest Book Review
