Book Description
Be vigil my children, for when the day comes that the gods of old arise again, and the Wanderer walks abroad, the Uncrowned King shall stand beside the Last Druin and unite the lands against the Void But do not be deceived, the Great Beast Azkalon, Lord of the Void, shall awaken from the Beyond, woe to the unwary for even the dead shall cower in his wake. ~From the Prophecy of the Uncrowned King~ War has come to us at last. We had been warned. But the hubris of men has blinded us to the past, and all the alliances of old have faded. The Druins, who had stood to oppose the gods who have ruled our people for countless generations, are no more. They had been betrayed. We allowed them to free us, and once we became strong again, we destroyed them. Where should we turn now? For five hundred years we have stood upon the might of our Imperium. Will we be able to contend against the might of gods? I fear the dark shadows that grows beneath the mountains, for our doom is fated by the deceit of our own pride. We stand alone. The old gods have returned, once again Thangar will know the might of the Dwarves who worship them. ~Spoken by the Forgotten The days of prophecy are upon us. Let the Uncrowned King ride the course of Fate.

Book Description
Doctors and patients alike trust the medical profession and its therapeutic powers; yet this trust has often been misplaced. Whether prescribing opium or thalidomide, aspirin or antidepressants, doctors have persistently failed to test their favourite ideas - often with catastrophic results. From revolutionary America to Nazi Germany and modern big-pharmaceuticals, this is the unexpected story of just how bad medicine has been, and of its remarkably recent effort to improve. It is the history of well-meaning doctors misled by intuition, of the startling human cost of their mistakes and of the exceptional individuals who have helped make things better. Alarming and optimistic, Taking the Medicine is essential reading for anyone interested in how and why to trust the pills they swallow.

Book Description
Arcwhistle Goldpulley has everything a gnome technowizard could want and more. He’s just successfully defended his after-post-thesis on harnessing the metamagical residuals of energetic creation and destruction, along with a dramatic demonstration of an application of his theory, one which only blew up two learning halls on campus, and completed his formal education as a master archmage. He is a successful Paratechnologist, a gnomish master of blending magic and science, often to explosive effect. He has developed and licensed many significant inventions ranging from autonomous eyebrow trimmers to anti-light anti-sunglasses. He has contributed significantly to several branches of metamagical thought and theory and continues to do so. He is, in short, a gnome who has it all. But, after graduating with honors for more times than he cares to count from TINKER, the Tellanon Institute of Noetic Knowledge, Education, and Research, Arcwhistle is faced with a problem, one which has no easy answer. What is he going to do with the rest of his life? How is he going live a life with meaning outside school? What is he to do beyond his lab and his research? Where’s the spark? That is until he discovers a new opportunity... the life of a secret agent gnome. Armed with his Paratechnological skills and a not-so-secret identity, can Arcwhistle thwart the efforts of ANGST, a group gnome terrorists Abyss-bent on spreading universal entropy, before they destroy Tellanon, the seat of Paratechnological society, undermine gnomish civilization, and ruin dessert for everyone? Gnomeggedon is a quirky humorous high fantasy story set in the larger Ea’ae macroverse. No gnomes were harmed in the writing of this book.
