Sword and Sorcery Epic Fantasy set in ancient Azerbaijan. 18+ It should be over: the Illvættir War and the threat posed by the Hunnic hordes. The Elves should be safe. And yet Gansükh rules Āzar Pāyegān, a Hunnic Shahdom right next to the elves. While ever he can summon his daimôn lord, he cannot be killed and he cannot be displaced. He also controls Darband, which is the major gateway into the lands south of the Greater Caucasus Mountains. When the Hun return, and they will, he will let them in. A very special assassin is sent to kill him. She must get closer to him than anyone else. She must become his lover. She must become his ‘enemy within the gates’. She is very dangerous herself and she will face intrigue, powerful enemies, great danger and desperate battles. What she least expects is to fall in love with the man she has been sent to kill. The desperate defence of the elves and their allies continues with ‘The Enemy Within’.

Book Description
The aim of the Ottoman educational reforms was to raise a class of educated bureaucrats as a means of administrative centralization, and a design to inculcate authoritarian and religious values among the population for the legitimization of state authority. This study, which deals with the modernization of Ottoman public education during the period of reform, is based on sources such as Ottoman archives, published documents, textbooks, and memoirs. It discusses the main factors that led to Ottoman educational reforms. The topics in this volume include the expansion of provincial education, financial policies, curricular issues, the educational ideology of the Tanzimat (1839-1876) and the Hamidian periods (1878-1908), ethnic groups in the Balkans, Anatolia and Arabia, and the process of socialization. The book particularly addresses those readers interested in the educational, social and administrative history of the late Ottoman period.
