Twenty years ago, this book could not have been published. In most universities, think tanks, and government research facilities, characterizing any type of murder as sacrificial was viewed at best as a secondary motive and at worst as junk science. - Dr. Dawn Perlmutter

Book Description
Fiona I learned long ago that not all heroes wear capes. Some don masks and armor to hide their battle scars. Others are irreparably broken. Princes without kingdoms. Kings without crowns. I tried to fix the hero of my story. But I'm afraid I've only made things worse. Boyd I learned long ago that all people bleed evil. Some don harsh wit and beauty to hide their truths. Others are inescapably lost. Princesses without castles. Queens without subjects. I tried to slay the evil in my story. But I'm afraid some demons are permanent. ★★★ Sweet Sacrifice is a dark age gap, brother's best friend romance. It is not recommended for people with certain triggers. Reader discretion is advised. Book 3 in the King's Trace Antiheroes series - Sweet Sacrifice can be read as a complete standalone, however reading the first two books in the series is highly recommended.

Book Description
It is for the first time that a complete critical edition of the Satapathabrahmana of the Kanva School of the Sukla Yajurveda alongwith its English translation is published. This edition has taken into account the readings available in a few more manuscripts, besides those in the published edition in Telugu script, which were not available to Prof. Caland who brought out a critical edition of its first seven Kandas. It is also the first attempt at providing a complete English translation. No doubt the texts of the Satapatha of the Madhyandina and Kanva School do not differ much from Kandas VIII to XVI and Prof. Eggeling's translation of the former is available. Still a fresh attempt at translating the latter portion was felt necessary as a result of detailed discussions with traditional scholars who are actively engaged in Srauta sacrificial performances. Textual Notes to substantiate the choice of particular readings; a section under the heading Vimarsa discussing certain selected topics arising out of a study of the text; an exhaustive list of contents, Brahmana-wise and Glossary of technical terms are some of the additional features of this attempt. The suggestions and guideance of traditional scholars who are experts in Srautayagas are the most important advantages of this edition.
