Book Description
A plucky, sardonic con artist must “prophesize” her way out of peril—discovering along the way that power and politics are nothing more than stories sold as truth. Kalyna’s family has the Gift: the ability to see the future. For generations, they traveled the four kingdoms of the Tetrarchia selling their services as soothsayers. Every child of their family is born with this Gift—everyone except Kalyna. So far, Kalyna has used informants and trickery to falsify prophecies for coin, scrounging together a living for her deteriorating father and cruel grandmother. But Kalyna’s reputation for prophecy precedes her, and poverty turns to danger when she is pressed into service by the spymaster to Rotfelsen. Kalyna is to use her “Gift” to uncover threats against Rotfelsen’s king, her family held hostage to ensure her good behavior. But politics are devious; the king’s enemies abound, and Kalyna’s skills for investigation and deception are tested to the limit. Worse, the conspiracy she uncovers points to a larger threat, not only to Rotfelsen but to the Tetrarchia itself. Kalyna is determined to protect her family and newfound friends, but as she is drawn deeper into palace intrigue, she can no longer tell if her manipulations are helping prevent the Tetrarchia’s destruction—or if her lies will bring about its prophesized downfall.

Book Description
The island of Paulomi is about to turn into a land of no magic. This is a momentous occasion for a kingdom enslaved by illusionists in the not so distant past. Meanwhile, Urmila, the wife of the crown prince, accepts a forbidden child-giving potion in an act of desperation. She even agrees to the condition that she must return one of the two sons born to her when he turns five. When the time comes to fulfill her promise, however, she discovers that worse things await the three of them. At a time when the kingdom is still defending its freedom from its defeated but still determined enemy, death surely stalks her sons on all sides. But she will not let them pay the price for her mistake. As she sets out to undo her wrong, she crosses paths with Sitara, who has long feared and concealed her powers, and Trishula, another royal desperate to right his mistake. Clashing with shapeshifting nagas, mischievous pretas, and enemies old and new, she discovers that it is not just the lives of her sons at stake but the future of her entire kingdom.

Book Description
This book explores the historical contextualization of Nietzsche's thought, focusing on Nietzsche's controversial Thus Spoke Zarathustra. The fourth part of Nietzsche's Zarathustra consists of Zarathustra's encounter with eight 'higher men' whom Zarathustra meets in succession on his path during the day. The prophet then invites each individual to his cave for the evening festivities, culminating in a blasphemous festival in which his guests worship an ass as God. Revealing each guest's specific characteristics and very distinct roles, Santaniello also attempts to discern 'who' these guests are or represent (historically) through glimpsing the characteristics specific to each representative guest (as portrayed by Nietzsche), and through careful textual analysis, comparison with Nietzsche's other works, historical evidence, and previous scholarly research. This unique exploration of Thus Spoke Zarathustra offers students and researchers alike an invaluable new contribution to Nietzsche studies.
