Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
Against all odds, the Knights of the Argent Blade have triumphed against an impossibly powerful demon and saved London from being the epicentre of the apocalypse. Now, they'd like nothing more than to lick their wounds, grieve for their fallen and have a little time to recuperate. But they are not going to have that luxury. An ancient and powerful enemy, one that has been around almost as long as the Order itself, is stepping out of the shadows. They intend to create a devastating plague that will rip apart the barrier separating this world from What Lies Beyond and allow their unholy master and his progeny to lay waste to humanity. To make matters worse, when the Order needs unity more than ever, secrets from the past resurface that threaten to tear them apart. As Lucy, Gillian, Charles and their fellow Knights struggle to work together and find a way to protect an asset that could be their best hope in the war to come, can they put their grievances to rest before the Blighted Brothers unleash untold death and destruction upon mankind?

Heraldic Design
Author: Hubert Allcock
Publisher: Courier Corporation
ISBN: 0486153940
Category : Design
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
Through the ages, as warfare and competitive rituals became more elaborate, heraldry evolved into an exact art and science. Used to denote accomplishments as well as the genealogies of outstanding individuals and families, these symbols survived the way of life that created them. This remarkably rich sourcebook of royalty-free designs describes the origins and ancient forms of heraldic devices, shields, and trademarks. Over 500 black-and-white drawings trace the history and meaning of the coat, shield, crests, helmets, blazonry, and "attitudes and attributes" of symbols, with considerable attention given to devices such as beasts, monsters, and human and part-human figures. American, British, French, Russian, and other coats of arms are displayed, as are insignias of the Pope and clergy, state seals, and emblems of many modern institutions. In addition to personal, commercial, and family arms, chapters also provide information on the use of heraldry in advertising, brand-labeling, and related fields. A valuable visual reference for anyone interested in genealogy, these handsome images will add a touch of class to a variety of art and craft projects.
