They entered the tomb to fight for their lives. The terrors within force them to battle for their souls. The people of the sunless lands of Avedolon crave power from their shrouded past. When the lost tomb of the Ashen Emperor is rediscovered, all the countries send forth their best and brightest to claim the secrets and riches hidden inside. Among them are three liars, each willing to spill blood and break minds to get what they want. The Summoner, a resurrected princess disguised as a noblewoman. Carrying forbidden magic and heavy vengeance, none who stand in her way stay standing for long. The Weed, a killer masquerading as a noble knight. Her smile is as sharp as her blades, her wit as quick as her feet. She’s always killed in the name of her criminal masters—until now. The Warder, a powerful magic user coveted by all and loved only by one. It’s his cunning mind that sparks the plan to free him and the Weed from their masters, and his sanity that's in danger of being swallowed by the tomb. The trials and horrors of the tomb test them, but it's the growing violence amongst the factions that threaten each of their plans. With no choice but to rely on each other, the trio forge an alliance born of blood and secrets to survive. For two, it's about freedom and survival. For another, it's about deadly necessity. With enemies above, monsters below, and creeping madness lurking around every corner, their greatest enemy is not the ancient powers who know no moral code—it’s their fragile alliance. Their fear of betrayal may be the deadliest trial of all.

The role of the Phoenicians in the economy, culture and politics of the ancient Mediterranean was as large as that of the Greeks and Romans, and deeply interconnected with that 'classical' world, but their lack of literature and their oriental associations mean that they are much less well-known. This book brings state-of-the-art international scholarship on Phoenician and Punic studies to an English-speaking audience, collecting new papers from fifteen leading voices in the field from Europe and North Africa, with a bias towards the younger generation. Focusing on a series of case-studies from the colonial world of the western Mediterranean, it asks what 'Phoenician' and 'Punic' actually mean, how Punic or western Phoenician identity has been constructed by ancients and moderns, and whether there was in fact a 'Punic world'.

Fractal patterning is natures way of economics, always tying back to previous iterations of evolved energy/ matter. Ecology, Eucharist and economy are of a piece in the fractal iterations of symbiotic patterning. Holistic living is a patterned process of fractal rationality, the mindful linking of ecology, economy and Eucharist. Mindfulness is religiously consistent by way of the harmonized linking of communication, consciousness and conscience, what is Trimorphic Resonance. There is no renewable wealth except that which cosmic energy/ substance provide. The balance that sustains codependent life is natural economy; waste of resources adversely affects the whole system. Natures adjustment can profoundly unsettle as the signs of the times show. Humankind has not yet grasped the control evolution holds over interdependent life-systems. Runaway Corporate Capitalism (profit above all else) is totally insensitive to natural ecology/ economy and to the immorality of out-of-control appetite. There is, however, a corrective that dampens appetites for power, profit and control, and that is Eucharistic Altruism. Eucharistic Altruism is a self-aware consciousness that owns a true sense of connection to the vital economics of natural ecology. Natures economy functions on the principle that life supposes death as death supposes life. The way of renewal is for present life to pass on to future life lessons learned. Exploitation-for-profit is inconsiderate of the future in its self-interest passion. When Eucharistic Altruism controls, the uplift of evolution enables future wellbeing by sustaining nature. Eucharistic Altruism is the virtue that compels true religion the hallmark of ecumenism.

When salt loses its savor it needs to be thrown out and replaced—this is an emphatic lesson from The Second Vatican Council, which addresses “joy and hope” in a faithless and despairing culture. The shining light of Vatican II is a beacon trained on the natural reality of transformational consciousness that grows out of and thrives in beauty and truth. The beauty of the moment, the truth of the moment is all that is and all that ye need to know, for beauty is truth, truth beauty. A Tree’s leaf is a lexicon (DIVINICON) of symbiotic history. Leaves are pages of durable consciousness that green freshly every Spring. Open to the beauty, the wisdom of a leaf, and the destiny of the blossom—HAPPINESS IS A LITTLE FLOWER GARDEN.

“A charming and mannered fantasy confection with a darker core of gothic romance” is how New York Times bestselling author Robin Hobb described Galen Beckett’s marvelous series opener, The Magicians and Mrs. Quent. Now Beckett returns to this world of dazzling magick and refined manners, where one extraordinary woman’s choice will put the fate of a nation—and all she cherishes—into precarious balance. Her courage saved the country of Altania and earned the love of a hero of the realm. Now sensible Ivy Quent wants only to turn her father’s sprawling, mysterious house into a proper home. But soon she is swept into fashionable society’s highest circles of power—a world that is vital to her family’s future but replete with perilous temptations. Yet far greater danger lies beyond the city’s glittering ballrooms—and Ivy must race to unlock the secrets that lie within the old house on Durrow Street before outlaw magicians and an ancient ravening force plunge Altania into darkness forever.
