Book Description

Before the Evolution there was TorBane: technology that infused human DNA with cybernetic matter. It had the ability to grow new organs and limbs, to heal the world. Until it evolved out of control and spread like the common cold. The machine took over, the soul vanished, and the Bane were born. The Bane won't stop until every last person has been infected. With less than two percent of the human population left, mankind is on the brink of extinction. Eve knows the stories of the Evolution, the time before she wandered into the colony of Eden, unable to recall anything but her name. But she doesn't need memories to know this world is her reality. This is a world that is quickly losing its humanity, one Bane at a time. Fighting to keep one of the last remaining human colonies alive, Eve finds herself torn between her dedication to the colony, and the discovery of love. There is Avian and West – one a soldier, one a keeper of secrets. And in the end, Eve will make a choice that will change the future of mankind. The Bane is The Terminator meets The Walking Dead with a heart-twisting romance. Previously published as Eden, due to reader demand it has been revamped and rereleased as The Bane: book one in The Eden Trilogy.

Book Description

Matthew was born three months early, and spent the first six months of his life at St Michael's Hospital in Bristol, England, which specialises in caring for premature and critically-ill newborns. This record of the emotional rollercoaster his parents experienced may give other parents of premature babies an idea of what to expect, and to inspire them to find the strength to believe that where there's life, there's hope, because sometimes, miracles do happen.

Book Description

The Bane of the Black Sword is the sixth and penultimate volume in the saga of Elric and his terrible, soul-eating magical sword, STORMBRINGER. Collecting together the five interconnected novellas of the original novel, ‘Old Wounds’, ‘Three Kings in Darkness,’ ‘The King Beneath the Hill,’ and the ‘Flame Bringers,’ The Bane of the Black Sword continues the eternal struggle of Elric against the elder gods of chaos as he fights to bring Stormbringer home and perhaps find peace, at last, in the arms of his true love Zarozinia. In the last story in this collection – ‘To Rescue Tanelorn’ Elric’s brother-in-arms, Rackhir the Red, is forced to travel through the five gateway realms in a quest to reach the Domain of the Grey Lords in search of aid to save the besieged city of Tanelorn from a horde of unimaginable evil. “Once begun, this is a book that can’t be put down until the last page, a sometimes surreal and often dreamlike interpretation.” – Starburst “You must read the book and you should own this graphic novel… and all the successive tomes to come…” – Comics Review

An indefinable “it.” His life had never been his own, used and abused by despicable beings. Worst of all, he never knew himself. Despite his tortured past, despite the darkness inside him, he has chosen a brighter path. He has a name—Erebu. His first stand was to defy the Master who created him to save his son. But instead of destroying the greatest enemy of all, he himself was destroyed… An unlikely love… From distant lands, across fathomless seas, someone heard the Creature’s cries. He gave Ere a second chance, a miraculous rebirth that came at a steep cost, remaking Ere with his own breath, body, blood and soul. This mysterious savior has a past of his own to face, and a future to define and embrace. Will Ere be able to find him in time? Will they forge their path together or pursue separate destinies? An end and a beginning… No matter their decision, one thing is certain: they must work together to unite all Kinds if they have a hope of defeating their ultimate nemesis. The end is near… And so is a brand new beginning. * M-M PNR-fantasy romance novel with explicit content. *

Book Description

Throughout the long running BBC series Doctor Who, the Doctor has rarely been alone, traveling with both female and male "companions." The companion is essential to Doctor Who because he or she is a stand-in for the audience, providing information about the Doctor's ongoing adventures. With the casting of a female actor in the role of the Doctor in 2018, one criticism of the series was finally resolved. After the shift in gender identity, the role of the Doctor and the companion also shifted--or has it? The continued focus on romantic relations between the TARDIS occupants has led to complaints from both male and female fans, reiterating and reinforcing myriad criticisms about the portrayal of the female companions. Essays in this book consider how gender is presented in Doctor Who and how certain female companions have been able to break out of the gendered roles usually assigned to them through the classic and new series.

Book Description

Humanitarian lessons and practical insights from the prophet of Islam The words of Muhammad, messenger of God and prophet of Islam, have a special place in the hearts of his followers. Wielding an authority second only to the Qur'an, they are cited by scholars in a vast array of disciplines—including law, theology, metaphysics, poetry, grammar, history, and medicine—and are quoted by Muslims to one another in their daily lives. Light in the Heavens by al-Qadi al-Quda'i, a Sunni judge in the Fatimid court in Egypt, is an outstanding example of a compilation of these sayings, known as hadiths, that circulated orally and were later assembled and written down. From North Africa to India, generations have used Light in the Heavens as a teaching text for children as well as adults, and many of its 1,200 sayings are familiar to individuals of diverse denominations and ethnicities. For Muslims—who consider Muhammad’s teachings the fount of wisdom and the beacon of guidance in all things, mundane and sublime—these sayings provide a direct window into the inspired vision of one of the most influential humans to have walked the Earth. An English-only edition.
