The Broken Heart of Arelium
Some Things Must Never Be Forgotten * Over 400 years ago, twelve great warriors united the beleaguered armies of men and scoured the war-torn lands of evil, pushing the enemy back into the underground pits and caverns from whence they came. To ensure their legacy, each of the Twelve founded fortress monasteries to impart their unique knowledge of war and politics to a select few, the Knights of the Twelve. But now the last of the Twelve have long since passed from history to legend and the Knights, their numbers dwindling, are harbouring a dark and terrible secret that must be protected at all costs. * Merad Reed has spent half his life guarding a great crater known as the Pit, yearning for ...
Mr. Boop
The beloved webcomic collected in its entirety for the first time in a beautiful deluxe edition! Author Alec Robbins is deeply in love with his wife, 1930s cartoon superstar Betty Boop. And wouldn't you know it, she loves him back! It's the perfect marriage, and nothing will ever go wrong.

Executing Freedom
In the mid-1990s, as public trust in big government was near an all-time low, 80% of Americans told Gallup that they supported the death penalty. Why did people who didn’t trust government to regulate the economy or provide daily services nonetheless believe that it should have the power to put its citizens to death? That question is at the heart of Executing Freedom, a powerful, wide-ranging examination of the place of the death penalty in American culture and how it has changed over the years. Drawing on an array of sources, including congressional hearings and campaign speeches, true crime classics like In Cold Blood, and films like Dead Man Walking, Daniel LaChance shows how attitudes toward the death penalty have reflected broader shifts in Americans’ thinking about the relationship between the individual and the state. Emerging from the height of 1970s disillusion, the simplicity and moral power of the death penalty became a potent symbol for many Americans of what government could do—and LaChance argues, fascinatingly, that it’s the very failure of capital punishment to live up to that mythology that could prove its eventual undoing in the United States.

And Time Will Turn Back
Jack Norvel could have lived a normal life but for his one hang up, he could not let go of his past. It was not that he had committed terrible acts; it was the self-demonizing thoughts that ruined his life. His suffering with depression from his late teens, and not being able to take anti-depressants, led to a life that was endured - not lived. He would have lived out his life in this manner had it not been for a more than chance meeting with a stranger early one morning while he was on one of his walks. Just the presence of the stranger seemed to drain all the melancholy from his being. The soft-spoken visitor wanted to know all about the four events in his life that had shaped his existence, even though, as it turned out, he already knew. Don, as Jack came to know his new friend, was there to make him an offer; an offer that would cancel out all those experiences that had so devastated his life. It would have been easy to accept the offer had it not been for the cost... the very high cost.
