Around the world in the twentieth century, political violence in emerging states gave rise to different kinds of silence within their societies. This book explores the histories of these silences, how they were made, maintained, evaded, and transformed. This book gives a comprehensive view of the ongoing evolutions and multiple faces of silence as a common strand in the struggles of state-building. It begins with chapters that examine the construction of "regimes of silence" as an act of power, and it continues through explorations of the ambiguous limits of speech within communities marked by this violence. It highlights national and transnational attempts to combat state silences, before c...

"Road of the Lost is a thrilling fantasy adventure with action and humor..." - San Francisco Book Review. "Road of the Lost is a fast-paced fantasy with an RPG feel...

We asked twenty-six authors to write stories based on the Tarot, with the cards determining which stories the authors would write. Over the course of several months we reached out to some of the best genre authors and proposed our idea. Once we had our authors, we took a tarot deck and a list of all twenty-six names. We would read the author’s name, shuffle the deck, and draw a card. That tarot card and its traits were all the authors had to go on. The card was removed, the deck was reshuffled, and the next name was read off. This anthology contains twenty-six stories based on the twenty-two cards of the Major Arcana and the four cards of the Minor Arcana. Award-winning and New York Times bestselling authors combine their talents to deal out twenty-six dark tales influenced by the Tarot.

The VOU

Fashion is a challenging industry, transforming faster than ever before. There are new brands, styles, influencers, and even new skills. 'Working in fashion' means something remarkably different from a decade ago, built on Inclusivity, diversity, and sustainability. The first edition of The VOU, dedicated to the Pride month of 2021, explores the meaning of 'Pride' in the context of fashion. Pride means many different things to the LGBTQ+ community; rage, gratitude, protest, celebration, revelation, and reflection. Built on personal and collective experiences, for so long, queerness was seen as the exception, a bitter disappointment, an affliction. Nowadays, queerness is freedom, embracing opposing concepts while recognizing similarities and seeing through stylistic conventions and traditions.

The rivers turn to blood and the mournful cry for judgment. Reslo returns to his family, but his quest is not over. Despite the comforts of home and the love of his wife and nephew, his blade thirsts. He promised the Templars he would return to them their champion's lost relic-blade, and he will not fail in his duty, no matter the cost. Gratas and Jerah arrive back in Nolterland. Their bodies are wounded and their souls ache from the months of fighting. When they find themselves in the idyllic town of Dunkhau, sleeping in comfortable beds every night, they both find that peace and comfort will shake their resolves more than any of war's horrors. Heiradra loves Dunkhau's peace and quaintness, but she cannot allow herself to become idle, not as her kingdom is besieged. Plots take root in her mind, and she finds a new source for her magical spells: blood. They try their best to fit into their new lives, but legends and myths have taken notice of their actions. The ancient, haunted citadel of Basarvigg is occupied once more and the heroes will find there is nowhere left in Nod for peace to be found.
