»A Tale of the Ragged Mountains« is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe, originally published in 1844. EDGAR ALLAN POE was born in Boston in 1809. After brief stints in academia and the military, he began working as a literary critic and author. He made his debut with the novel The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket in 1838, but it was in his short stories that Poe's peculiar style truly flourished. He died in Baltimore in 1849.

In the passage to modernity we in the West have lost the ability to see things whole. We've closed our minds to all things transcendent and default to unbelief, and can't make sense of the persistent echoes of the voice of God that reverberate in our souls. In Rediscovering God's Grand Story, James Roseman picks up the strands of science, philosophy, history, the arts, and theology, and reweaves the tapestry to see a coherent story that makes the best sense of the world and provides real meaning and significance to our lives--God's Grand Myth. We see that the signals of transcendence that confound our culture of doubt are a universal language and vocabulary of the heart echoing the voice of God; and in the very Judeo-Christian story we so readily jettison is found the Author enabling us to see the world whole again. This essay tells why the story and promise of Christianity is so hard to hear today but won't go away. Could it be that, as T. S. Eliot wrote in the mid-twentieth century, "at the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time"?

Life is hard. It is hard as a teenager just graduating High School and trying to make your way in the world. It is exponentially harder however when that world is shattered by newly gained knowledge of a complete other world within. A world of assassins and subterfuge coupled along with mysterious occurrences of a being that should not exist. Grymm is a story of a young man who faces a darkness that has chosen him and a fate that could literally consume him for eternity. Death has come for him, and not to gather his extinguished flame of life but rather as its predecessor next in line to take up the dark onus of harvesting souls. It is a position that will alter him and draw him into the darkness unless he has help from someone that is long gone from his life. Will it be enough and in time?
