Lilting of music with tempo, tone and spirit unveils its essence before us. Similarly, the rambling reach a flowering orchid displays from contrasting depths is a unique, mesmerising presence unequivocable in beauty and perfume. Aligning and weaving through our nightscapes, daytime hustles and quiet contemplations, are whispers of truths that speak into our lives with unveiling consequence. Whispers of Truth is such a book, birthed through the instinctive, responsive and sensitive writings of Lorna Leilanii. Profound insights through nuances of exposures have etched themselves into a palette of expression from life and loss. Embraced in a brocade of vivid verse comes a very personal encounter, a journey from the Shadows to the Sun.

He seeks a Natchez exploration party and its leader, Itchakomi. It is she who will rule her people when their aging chief dies, but first she must vanquish her rival, the arrogant warrior Kapata.

From disagreement over an Islamic Center in New York to clashes between Christians and Muslims in Egypt, tension between the three Abrahamic faiths often runs high. Yet for all their differences, these three traditions—Judaism, Islam, and Christianity—share much in common. Three Testaments brings together for the first time the text of the Torah, the New Testament, and the Quran, so that readers can explore for themselves the connections, as well as the points of departure, between the three faiths. Notable religion scholars provide accessible introductions to each tradition, and commentary from editor Brian Arthur Brown explores how the three faiths may draw similarities from the ancient Zoroastrian tradition. This powerful book provides a much-needed interfaith perspective on key sacred texts.
