More than two decades have gone by since Imperial Princess Jenna, broken in heart and body, fled her brutal marriage—and the land of her birth. She’s since become Ivariel: warrior, priestess of Danu, trainer of elephants, wife and mother. Wiser, stronger, happier, Ivariel has been content to live in her new country, to rest her battered self, and to recover from the trauma of what happened to her when she was barely more than a girl. But magic has returned to the world—abruptly and with frightening force—and Ivariel takes that profound change as a sign that it’s time to keep a promise she made to the sisters she left behind. Ivariel must leave the safety she’s found and return to face the horrors she fled. As Ivariel emerges from hiding, she discovers that her vicious brother is now Emperor of Dasnaria, and her much-hated mother, the Dowager Empress Hulda, is aiding him in his reign of terror. Worse, it seems that Hulda’s resurrection of the tainted god Deyrr came about as a direct result of Jenna’s flight long ago. It’s up to Ivariel—and the girl she stopped being long ago—to defeat the people who cruelly betrayed her, and to finally liberate her sisters. Determined to cleanse her homeland of the evil that nearly destroyed her, Ivariel at last returns to face the past. But this time, she’ll do it on her own terms.

The book Sledgehammer Sentence is nostalgic feeling of isolation and confinement, going crazy when you found yourself in 7-by-10 foot concrete cell that had a solid metal door with a small window made of hard plastic. In a society willing to incarcerate more than is necessary to accomplish [legitimate] goals of sentencing. A good many were put in there for donkey years for acts of nonviolent rule breaking. You witness firsthand wasted resources, dangerous overcrowding and needless over incarceration that takes a large individual and societal toll. Billions of tax payer’s dollar wasting and loss of individual freedom that results in family broken.

God gave us that greatest gift, “his son,” to save humankind, give us faith, encourage us, equip us, and guide us. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent his only begotten son into the world that we might live through him. (1 John 4:9) This is thought-provoking. It’s an invitation to replace doubt with faith. This faith is going to be our weapon. It is belief, the belief we are going to use to believe the Son of God.

“Once bitten twice shy. If minor mistakes could get me in trouble, what if I make a major mistake? One may run away from temptation but may not hide from it,” Ngozi cautioned. But that was the night she succumbed to temptation. Then came the beating: dum, dum, dum, tim, tim . . . Ngozi couldn’t protect her face anymore. She cried out in pain, “Sorry, sorry, I swear I will never dance again in my life. O heaven help me! Please! Please!” MmA and Jon beat Ngozi for hours until she gave up her dream. A maid’s patience could be compared to the patience of a farmer, one who plants and patiently waits for harvest.
