Book Description
The second book in The Song of the Shattered Sands series--an epic fantasy with a desert setting, filled with rich worldbuilding and pulse-pounding action. Çeda, now a Blade Maiden in service to the kings of Sharakhai, trains as one of their elite warriors, gleaning secrets even as they send her on covert missions to further their rule. She knows the dark history of the asirim—that hundreds of years ago they were enslaved to the kings against their will—but when she bonds with them as a Maiden, chaining them to her, she feels their pain as if her own. They hunger for release, they demand it, but with the power of the gods compelling them, they find their chains unbreakable. Çeda could become the champion they've been waiting for, but the need to tread carefully has never been greater. After their recent defeat at the hands of the rebel Moonless Host, the kings are hungry for blood, scouring the city in their ruthless quest for revenge. Çeda's friend Emre and his new allies in the Moonless Host hope to take advantage of the unrest in Sharakhai, despite the danger of opposing the kings and their god-given powers, and the Maidens and their deadly ebon blades. When Çeda and Emre are drawn into a plot of the blood mage Hamzakiir, they learn a devastating secret that may very well shatter the power of the hated kings. But it may all be undone if Çeda cannot learn to navigate the shifting tides of power in Sharakhai and control the growing anger of the asirim that threatens to overwhelm her...

Book Description
Wave Upon the Sand is a book of poems exploring life, love and meaning. Each poem has been written to jump start a thought, changing the way you interact with the world around you. This book of poems came out of the pandemic. My response to the stress and uncertainty was to create, and create, and create. The one thing I held onto was the idea that humanity goes on. Life finds a way. And throughout it all, love will persevere. I hope each poem sparks a thought or response in you. An opportunity for deeper contemplation. And maybe even a sense of connection to me, an individual, and humanity as a whole. If not, you can use the book for wrapping fish, lighting fires or fending off robbers. You get 17 poems. They include: BURSTING JOY FICKLE MATTERS BLUE ASLEEP KISS FALL UNREALITY POSSIBLE SHINE! WALK LOVE ALIVE BEST MORTAL ALL

Book Description
Inspired by Richard Rohr, Ronald Rolheiser, Belden Lane, and Thomas Merton, Desert Spirituality for Men reveals the transformative and healing power of the desert—for men who actively seek God. Blending a memoir of his son’s fight for life, reflections on his own desert retreats and response to the Lord’s persistent desire for relationship, Brad Karelius offers guidance to men in their holy longing for God. An Episcopal priest for fifty years, Professor of Philosophy for forty-five years, husband, and father, Karelius also tells about the power of his friendship with six remarkable men, and he describes some of their well-founded prayer practices which will sustain and nurture any man in his quest. This book will encourage men of all callings and stages in life to plan their own retreats to the desert—where God lives and gives life.

Book Description
An incredible, true story of a missionary family who landed on Great Sangir Island, just south of the Philippines in the Pacific Ocean to teach islanders truth, loyalty and faith. At first the village people were suspicious of the newcomers but soon many grew to love and respect the Christian family. However, the witch doctor, the chief and many of the head men resented them being there. They decided to counteract the Christian influence by importing some Islamic leaders from an island nearby. The plot thickens when the Christians were confined to the seashore while most of the villagers climbed a mountain to escape a gigantic tidal wave that was created by an erupting volcano on an island close by. Read how God intervened and miraculously delivered his servants from serious accidents, destruction and immediate death. A very exciting and thrilling story!

Book Description
What is form? Why does form matter? In this imaginative and ambitious study, Angela Leighton assesses not only the legacy of Victorian aestheticism, and its richly resourceful keyword, 'form', but also the very nature of the literary. She shows how writers, for two centuries and more, have returned to the idea of form as something which contains the secret of art itself. She tracks the development of the word from the Romantics to contemporary poets, and offers close readings of, among others, Tennyson, Pater, Woolf, Yeats, Stevens, and Plath, to show how form has provided the single most important way of accounting for the movements of literary language itself. She investigates, for instance, the old debate of form and content, of form as music or sound-shape, as the ghostly dynamic and dynamics of a text, as well as its long association with the aestheticist principle of being 'for nothing'. In a wide-ranging and inventive argument, she suggests that form is the key to the pleasure of the literary text, and that that pleasure is part of what literary criticism itself needs to answer and convey.

Book Description
SEASCAPE is a tantalizing adventure into a unique world whose location envelopes it with magic mysteries. Objects as well as entities allow testing beyond the usual assumed abilities. Governments form, leaders move to the forefront, survival skills are tested, collegiality is pressed and more importantly, values shape actions. Trust, respect, freedom and demeanor are both defined and exalted when plausible by both peers and by foes. The challenges that are presented test the initiative and talent of those selected for leadership. Those dubbed to perform tasks and to lead generally are selected because of their innate talents or conditions. Crabs are loved, sharks are feared, whales are given space and Stingrays are allowed tantrums. It is the interchange that makes SEASCAPE unique. Helmet the hermit crab's treasure surrounds him whether it is sand, sea or other prized valuables but most importantly, his treasure is his shell.
