This is a compilation from the Sid & Sin series. It contains two novellas as well as novels 4&5. Sett's Salvation, Witching Ways, Mythic Mysteries, and Mystery at the Bard & Board. Sett's Salvation: Sett Fortin’s boss sent her on a working vacation. Do one thing, then enjoy the rest of the two weeks. Sett doesn’t do vacations, or travel. She works. All the time. Supernatural Police Agent Cosette Fortin never stops being a cop. Then she discovered New Orleans – and in her first twenty-four hours, everything changed. A new cousin, a new case, and now she has to learn about vampires. Of course, the local SPD agents don’t take kindly to an interloper – particularly Agent Lucia Landry. Yet, Lucia and Sett find they have more in common than not, and when Sett’s past comes calling, they have to learn to trust in order to survive. Witching Ways: Sid & Sin are learning some life lessons. Sin has discovered that life is a whole lot different when you have a baby. It's even more complex when that baby is showing magical abilities way too early. Sid is finding out how much fun it can be to juggle multiple partners. Fun being the objective, that is. Witches are rising up against the Faery folk. They're blaming the disruptions in their magic on the fae. It's entirely possible they're correct in their blame. Or are they? Something is screwing with the balance of magic in the Belle Cove area and it's causing chaos. The twins have a lot of chaos going on in their own lives right now - will they be able to step up once again? Mythic Mysteries: Belle Cove needs the Mythics in order for the magic to balance. Not everyone is willing to play nice. The last time all four races openly lived with humans, there had been less than a hundred people in the region. Now there were hundreds of thousands. The Supernatural Police need to to step up their game if they're going to keep a semblance of peace in the region and not have every single non-human suddenly exposed to the whole world. This is Sid & Sin's legacy. It's what the prophecy spoke about. Are they ready - and able - to answer the call? Mystery at the Bard & Board: Life as a refugee from Faery is a lot of hard work and study. For Mira, her days are spent between school and her uncle's bar - until the family connections between the small crew are shattered in the worst way. A girl has to be careful who she holds tight to when it all falls apart.

Greek gods, Norse heroes, Polynesian tricksters, and Native American warriors—they all have lessons to teach us. Since the beginning of time, human beings have relied on myths, fairy tales, and fables to explain life’s mysteries. Bringing a fresh perspective to these age-old tales, Liz Greene and Juliet Sharman-Burke reveal how seekers today can find comfort and support in the legends and lore of the past. The Mythic Journey explores the psychological themes of many mythical traditions, recounting stories from Greco-Roman, Hebraic, Egyptian, Celtic, Norse, and various Eastern civilizations. More than 50 myths are beautifully retold, and each is followed by a psychological overview explaining how we can apply the story to our own lives. The Mythic Journey is a handbook for human life, guiding readers from the conflicts of family and childhood, through problems of love, intimacy, and ambition, and ultimately to the point when we must face our own mortality. We discover that true self knowledge comes through facing life’s challenges with courage and strength; that beauty, talent, power, and wealth bring their own forms of suffering; and that in the darkness of loneliness, failure, and loss, we have always discovered new light and new hope.

Material Mystery considers three apparently anthropocentric myths that are central to Abrahamic religions—those of the primal human, the incarnated and possibly divine redeemer, and the resurrected body. At first glance, these stories reinforce a human-centered theology and point to a very anthropomorphic God. Taking them seriously seems to ignore the material turn in the humanities entirely, with the same sort of willful ignorance that some of our politicians show in declaring that their myths count as facts, or that the point of the rest of the world is to further human consumption. But it is possible, Karmen MacKendrick shows, to read these figures through a particular tradition that emerges from the Hebrew Bible, the tradition of Wisdom as a creative force. Wisdom texts are common across the ancient Near East. As the idea of creative Wisdom develops from antiquity into the middle ages, it gathers philosophical influences from a range of philosophical traditions. This exuberantly promiscuous impurity—intellectual, artistic, and theological—generates new interpretive possibilities. In these interpretations, each human-like figure opens up onto the world''s matter, as an interdependent part of it, and matter is thoroughly mixed with divinity. Such mythic readings complement our factual, scientific understanding of the material world, to engage wider kinds of knowing and affective attention—particularly Wisdom''s combination of care and delight.

When United Airlines workers reported a UFO at O'Hare Airport in November 2006, it was met with the typical denials and hush-up that usually accompany such sightings. But when a related story broke the record for hits at the Chicago Tribune's website, it was clear that such unexplained objects continued to occupy the minds of fascinated readers. Why, wonders Thomas Bullard, don't such persistent sightings command more urgent attention from scientists, scholars, and mainstream journalists? The answer, in part, lies in Bullard's wide-ranging magisterial survey of the mysterious, frustrating, and ever-evolving phenomenon that refuses to go away and our collective efforts to understand it. In his trailblazing book, Bullard views those efforts through the lens of mythmaking, discovering what UFO accounts tell us about ourselves, our beliefs, and the possibility of visitors from beyond. Bullard shows how ongoing grassroots interest in UFOs stems both from actual personal experiences and from a cultural mythology that defines such encounters as somehow "alien"-and how it views relentless official denial as a part of conspiracy to hide the truth. He also describes how UFOs have catalyzed the evolution of a new but highly fractured belief system that borrows heavily from the human past and mythic themes and which UFO witnesses and researchers use to make sense of such phenomena and our place in the cosmos. Bullard's book takes in the whole spectrum of speculations on alien visitations and abductions, magically advanced technologies, governmental conspiracies, varieties of religious salvation, apocalyptic fears, and other paranormal experiences. Along the way, Bullard investigates how UFOs have inspired books, movies, and television series; blurred the boundaries between science, science fiction, and religion; and crowded the Internet with websites and discussion groups. From the patches of this crazy quilt, he posits evidence that a genuine phenomenon seems to exist outside the myth. Enormously erudite and endlessly engaging, Bullard's study is a sky watcher's guide to the studies, stories, and debates that this elusive subject has inspired. It shows that, despite all the competing interests and errors clouding the subject, there is substance beneath the clutter, a genuinely mysterious phenomenon that deserves attention as more than a myth.
