DEMON NATION
During the night in the middle of the desert, whirling ice crystals slammed the earth at lightning speed. The crystalline spears of death pierced the ground and shattered in million pieces against the hot sand. The earsplitting scream of glass breaking magnified hundreds times and ascended to maximum capacity creating a sand storm with heavy rain and wind spinning counterclockwise in the middle of the remote region. The horrible noise hovered in mid-air, overwhelmed the surrounding wasteland and disintegrated. A sheet of red, transparent mist developed and lingered a few inches above the top layer of the sand. The moon, a great big round luminescent sphere, burned with raging force among the...

Until the End
Until the End By: Katie Barker In the near future, two sisters, Alaina and Hayley Mitchell, are forced to flee their home during a conflict with a neighboring community, and everything they thought they knew in their lives changes. Follow their journey as they face hardships, separate, and grow into young adults, taking very different paths in life, only to reunite in conflict—at odds over politics and their love for a very special boy in their lives. One sister had a manipulatable gene that made her extremely desirable to the powers that be. Until the End is about hope, and during the times we live in, the best we can do is have hope. The author hopes readers take away an awareness of the effects of love, both positive and negative, and that there is hope as long as you look for it in the right places.
Queenship and the Women of Westeros
Is the world of George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire and HBO’s Game of Thrones really medieval? How accurately does it reflect the real Middle Ages? Historians have been addressing these questions since the book and television series exploded into a cultural phenomenon. For scholars of medieval and early modern women, they offer a unique vantage point from which to study the intersections of elite women and popular understandings of the premodern world. This volume is a wide-ranging study of those intersections. Focusing on female agency and the role of advice, it finds a wealth of continuities and contrasts between the many powerful female characters of Martin’s fantasy world and the strategies that historical women used to exert influence. Reading characters such as Daenerys Targaryen, Cersei Lannister, and Brienne of Tarth with a creative, deeply scholarly eye, Queenship and the Women of Westeros makes cutting-edge developments in queenship studies accessible to everyday readers and fans.
Naturally Nude in Nature
One of the revelations with photography is that monochrome images often enable us to see the world and people in new, and often deeper, ways. Colour is such a dominant part of our vision that we often overlook more subtle variations in tones and textures.This book is a companion volume to the colour book "Rewilding the Human Spirit", but instead of repeating the contemporary narrative contained in that book, this work includes a range of directly relevant quotations which show and help to explain humans' deep and intrinsic connection to our natural world.The importance of landscape, nature and our natural world is shown both through these quotations and through just over 130 monochrome fine art nude images, involving 15 different women aged 24 to 43. The works have been shot in a range of natural locations around Europe.

She Will Be with Me (liturgy-Only)

Women in Game of Thrones
Game of Thrones, one of the hottest series on television, leaves hundreds of critics divided on how "feminist" the show really is. Certainly the female characters, strong and weak, embody a variety of archetypes--widow queens, warrior women, damsels in distress, career women, priestesses, crones, mothers and maidens. However, the problem is that most of them play a single role without nuance--even the "strong women" have little to do besides strut about as one-note characters. This book analyzes the women and their portrayals one by one, along with their historical inspirations. Accompanying issues in television studies also appear, from the male gaze to depiction of race. How these characters are treated in the series and how they treat themselves becomes central, as many strip for the pleasure of men or are sacrificed as pawns. Some nude scenes or moments of male violence are fetishized and filmed to tantalize, while others show the women's trauma and attempt to identify with the scene's female perspective. The key is whether the characters break out of their traditional roles and become multidimensional.

Now that she's returned from oblivion, Reva's out for blood. The Northern Witch, Locasta, destroyed Reva's life out of jealousy over Crow. But Reva's love for him is gone, replaced only with the desire for revenge. Crow wasted years trying to distract his mind after the Wicked Witch-his true love-was vanquished. He'd thought Reva was lost forever until magic brought her back, though their reunion was anything but happy. Reva hates him now as much as she loved him then. He can't blame her-his former lover cursed them both and stole their daugh...
