He's not a robot. He's not a human. He's both. Liege, changed against his will into a super soldier by nanotechnology, is driven to protect humanity from the evil intent of his enemies. But the deadly focus he was wired for comes to a crashing halt when he sees her, a female who ignites in him a very human hunger, one he no longer thought himself capable of feeling. Summer Coltrane is oblivious to the powers swirling around her--light and dark, evil and good--until the veil between both worlds is ripped open and she's plunged into a terrible power play between a darkly tempting warrior and his ruthless enemies. To stay alive, she must join forces with Liege, a man who kills without remorse to save those he loves in a war no one in her world can know about.
Small power diplomacy in seventeenth century Europe War, State and Society in Liège is a fascinating case study of the consequences of war in the Prince-Bishopric of Liège and touches upon wider issues in early modern history, such as small power diplomacy in the seventeenth century and during the Nine Years’ War. For centuries, the small semi-independent Holy Roman Principality of Liège succeeded in preserving a non-belligerent role in European conflicts. During the Nine Years’ War (1688–1697), however, Liège’s leaders had to abolish the practice of neutrality. For the first time in its early modern history, the Prince-Bishopric had to raise a regular army, reconstruct ruined defence structures, and supply army contributions in both money and material. The issues under discussion in War, State and Society in Liège offer the reader insight into how Liège politically protected its powerful institutions and how the local elite tried to influence the interplay between domestic and external diplomatic relationships.

Valle de Lágrimas, the Valley of Tears, is a Colombian hell hole Merc hoped never to see again. Having survived years of rebel wars and illegal cartel activity, it faces a new and worse threat, an enemy long known to the Legion: the Omni World Order. Merc’s job—and that of all Legionnaires—is to protect humans from Omni mutants, not each other. But Merc doesn’t do rules, and the chaos he unleashes takes on a life of its own, making it impossible to throttle down. Ashlyn DeWinter is excited about her trip to Colombia. Valle de Lágrimas keeps popping up in her research, but her friends warn her it isn’t safe for tourists. Something about the village draws her nonetheless. Her visit comes in the wake of an unusual man’s time there—a man who did terrible and wonderful things to protect the village. A man whose energy she hungers for, though she hasn’t met him and likely never will. A man like that couldn’t possibly exist—could he? A better question is—how does she find him when the only name she has for him is his odd nickname: Merc?
Elizabeth of Spalbeck, Christina Mirabilis and Marie d'Oignies were three of the famous late 12th- and early 13th-century holy women from the region of Brabant and Liège. Their life stories were read throughout later medieval Europe. This is the first critical edition of these Lives.
This volume collects studies on the role of monastic institutions in the exchange of cultural and socio-economic capital in the medieval diocese of Liège. During the high Middle Ages, the bishopric of Liège found itself at a cultural crossroads between the German Empire and the French lordships. The Liègeois themselves summed up the situation when they declared that: 'Gaul considers us its most distant inhabitants, Germany as nearby citizens. In fact we are neither, but both at the same time'. This same complexity is also echoed by present-day historians, who have described Liège as a hub of interactions between two great civilisations. Medieval monastic communities in Liège were key si...
