Gods in the Desert explores the fascinating religious cultures of the ancient Near East. From the mysterious pyramids, tombs, and temples of Egypt to the powerful heroes, gods, and legends of Mesopotamia, Glenn Holland guides readers through the early religions that are the root of many of today's major faiths. Holland compares the religions of ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and Syria-Palestine, including Israel and Judah, from the Neolithic era through the conquest of Alexander the Great. He provides a historical survey of each region, then discusses the gods, the rulers, the afterlife, and the worship rituals. This accessible overview makes clear how these religions converged and diverged, and are intimately connected to many of the religions we recognize today, sometimes in surprising ways.

Epic adventures are set in the days of dragons and magic, demons and undead, on a world in this galaxy in a time of great need. The age is debated by grand wizards, renowned sages, and clerics of a dozen races. It took place before the great Over God Wars but during the time of chance, and that is what we will call it—the Age of Chance. Charles, born a crown prince, is the black sheep of the royal family. He makes one necessary decision that destroys his life, causes his exile from his beloved country, and prompts praise as a hero. Charles is led on a dangerous and painful journey to regain his loss, and becomes more powerful and deadly than anyone ever anticipated. In this action-packed epic fantasy, a young crown prince embarks on a adventure-filled quest to become a god.

Introducing Detective Inspector Tom Harper in a brand-new historical mystery series. June 1890. Leeds is close to breaking point. The gas workers are on strike. Supplies are dangerously low. Factories and businesses are closing; the lamps are going unlit at night. Detective Inspector Tom Harper has more urgent matters on his mind. The beat constable claims eight-year-old Martha Parkinson has disappeared. Her father insists she’s visiting an aunt in Halifax – but Harper doesn’t believe him. When Col Parkinson is found dead the following morning, the case takes on an increasing desperation. But then Harper’s search for Martha is interrupted by the murder of a replacement gas worker, stabbed to death outside the Town Hall while surrounded by a hostile mob. Pushed to find a quick solution, Harper discovers that there’s more to this killing than meets the eye – and that there may be a connection to Martha’s disappearance.
