Cursed Knight

The gods are dead. Long live their children...In a world where elves, dwarves and humans live in peace and harmony, there remains a warrior race steeped in violence and war, where honour is based on strength of arm and steel. They are the Einar. Facing a catastrophic blight, the Einar army crosses the sea in search of a new world. When their longships are attacked, fifteen year old Kairos Azel is the only survivor, cast into a strange land called Ordonia.

His life at risk from the dark elves, Kairos must join the revered order of Mana Knights to fight for justice. The problem is, the Einar cannot use magic. How does Kairos become a spell-wielding knight with no magic? How can save his dying homeland when he is stranded across the sea?Then Kairos learns that not all of the ruling gods are dead ... And one of them is after the Einar

A Great Idea at the Time

Today the classics of the western canon, written by the proverbial ''dead white men,'' are cannon fodder in the culture wars. But in the 1950s and 1960s, they were a pop culture phenomenon. The Great Books of Western Civilization, fifty-four volumes chosen by intellectuals at the University of Chicago, began as an educational movement, and evolved into a successful marketing idea. Why did a million American households buy books by Hippocrates and Nicomachus from door-to-door salesmen? And how and why did the great books fall out of fashion? In A Great Idea at the Time Alex Beam explores the Great Books mania, in an entertaining and strangely poignant portrait of American popular culture on the threshold of the television age. Populated with memorable characters, A Great Idea at the Time will leave readers asking themselves: Have I read Lucretius's De Rerum Natura lately? If not, why not?

Russian Literature

For most English-speaking readers, Russian literature consists of a small number of individual writers - nineteenth-century masters such as Dostoevsky, Tolstoy and Turgenev - or a few well-known works - Chekhov's plays, Brodsky's poems, and perhaps Master and Margarita and Doctor Zhivago from the twentieth century. The medieval period, as well as the brilliant tradition of Russian lyric poetry from the eighteenth century to the present, are almost completely terra incognita, as are the complex prose experiments of Nikolai Gogol, Nikolai Leskov, Andrei Belyi, and Andrei Platonov. Furthermore, those writers who have made an impact are generally known outside of the contexts in which they wrote...
