There’s a place deep in the mountains covered in Pine, Where all who come are looking for what’s mine. Where these good boys and girls utter all kinds of sounds, Ones I can hear deep below the ground. Where friends, strangers, child, and brother Search for an escape like none other. Where an experience or adventure is something to treasure, Wrapped up safe and cloaked with much pleasure. Where the cold, dark nights call for fires to be lit, And body heat isn’t enough to stoke the endless pit. Where ombre sunsets rival the brightest of loves, And hatchets to scare even the most innocent doves.

Welcome to the world of shadows, cloaked in perpetual starlight; its denizens are a mysterious and frightening breed. And sometimes, just sometimes, their eldritch whispers and murmurs can cross the boundaries of reality and enter our darkest dreams. Richard Groller and his troupe of dead and living poets pull back the veil in The Book of Night, revealing the terrifying denizens of the shadows.

Jonah Rowe is looking for meaning for his life. He finally gets his wish, as sudden visions and a spectral visitor warn him of danger. Overnight, Jonah transforms from an overworked accountant to the centerpiece of an otherworldly battle. But can he rise to the occasion and accept that everything he knows about life and death is completely wrong - and more importantly, will he be able to harness the power of the mysterious 11th percent?

Jonah Rowe thought he had the 11th Percent figured out. Spirits were real, and he had access to ethereal powers. He got that. But he hadn’t expected this: this was one threat too many. One revelation too many. As ethereal monsters prepare to ravage Rome, Jonah is the only thing in the way of the ancient city being bathed in lifeblood. His survival depends on him confronting the one thing he never thought he’d have to. His past.

Take a town full of West Virginia coal miners, 17th century nobility, one of the longest and bloodiest wars in history, d'Artagnan (without the three musketeers), Blaise Pascal, Rene Descartes, Galileo, Oliver Cromwell, and Gustav II Adolph. Shake well and simmer for thirteen years. Eric Flint's world of 1632 is an amazing and complex alternate history universe that split off from ours one spring day in 2000 and 1631.

Jonah Rowe knew that he didn't know everything about his abilities as an 11th Percenter - a human who could access the power of their auras. But he knew enough to not believe in the myths of the Greek Gods. Those were stories for kids. Hollywood. Until the Sibyl came along.

Jonah Rowe's doing great. His accounting days are behind him, and he has more allies than he can count among his fellow Eleventh Percenters. But when a mysterious woman invades Jonah’s dreams and warns him of a danger of chronological nature, a game of cat-and-mouse ensues. Who is this woman, and why does she believe that they are in danger? And will Jonah be able to find the answers while protecting all of them - before they run out of time?

"The Girl of Many Crowns" is the true and inspiring story of Judith, the first princess of France, who is a pawn in a complex political game of chess as her father, King Charles, tries to hold on to his kingdom. King Charles, grandson of Emperor Charlemagne, is beset on every side by Vikings, rebel lords, and greedy neighboring monarchs. He marries 12-year-old Judith to Aethelwulf, the aging King of Wessex, for political advantage. When she is widowed, less than two years later, he arranges a second marriage for her.

Jonah Rowe sabía que no lo sabía todo sobre sus habilidades como once, un humano que puede acceder al poder de sus auras. Pero sabía lo suficiente como para no creer en los mitos sobre los dioses griegos. Esas eran historias para niños. Hollywood. Hasta que llegó la sibila.

Two Texas Black Gay men tastes a local Texas Wine, give candid reviews on the wine, and share insight on an interesting topic.

Eva had gone from one fire straight into another. After her run-in with a deranged Spirit Reaper and Persephone, she was sure that returning to filming the episodes for Grave Messages would be a vacation. How could she possibly get into any more trouble than she'd already been in? But there was something much worse on the horizon. Much darker. Much more dangerous. Poveglia Island.

After Joey gets seriously injured, Eva is beside herself. She's the first to admit it: Joey Lawson is more than just her cameraman. He's her brother; the one solid through her time as the Sibyl. She couldn't give up on him. No, she refused to give up on him. Despite the threats that the spirit of his attacker piled on her head.

Never in a million years would Eva have thought that she'll get kidnapped. Maybe what the books said about Greek heroes and hubris had a point. She was too good of a fighter. There was no way Ares could get his hands on her. But the rescue was only the beginning.

Jonah has witnessed the unthinkable. The world has changed, and the new threats aren’t just ethereal. It’s no longer just about having the right spiritual powers, the right armaments, or the right allies. Just like before, when Jonah thought he had the 11th Percent figured out, just when he thought he had all the answers, he learned once again that he had no idea. Now, Jonah Rowe faces his most challenging trial yet. His faith will be tested and his beliefs challenged. And in the end, he'll find himself asking the question: Is it the world that is different or just him?

Jonah knows that Inimicus is in the game. His unseen enemy is prowling through the shadows, making moves that no one can predict or prevent. And he's armed with a weapon more dangerous than any ethereal blade or staff: Anonymity. Jonah thought he had ventured into uncharted waters before, but the past is nothing compared to this. Loyalties will be tested, and people will lose sight of what’s truly important. The line between friend and enemy will blur. And the question in everyone’s mind will make the difference between victory and downfall. Who can you trust?
