The martial arts world is rife with tales of ancient masters who could cause instant or delayed death or illness by attacking secret points on the human body. But to the Western mind, the concept of striking acupuncture points to disrupt the internal energy, or chi, seems like hocus-pocus. Thus, many serious martial artists dismiss the ancient art of dim-mak (also known as kyusho jitsu), which is literally translated as "death touch," as nothing more than fiction. However, if one can accept the idea that a dim-mak point is an avenue for attacking the nervous system, then it becomes easier to understand how striking specific points or groups of points can devastate the organs and the cardiovascular system. In this book, Dr. Michael Kelly, an osteopathic physician and experienced dim-mak practitioner, explains dim-mak's effects based on medical science. In layman's terms, Dr. Kelly reveals the physiological basis for what is clearly a very real and dangerous method of fighting. In the process of unraveling the mystery of this legendary art, Dr. Kelly makes the true genius of its founders brutally, and painfully, apparent.

A thousand years in the future, the last of humanity live inside the walls of the totalitarian Kingdom of Cutta. The rich live in Anais, the capital city of Cutta, sheltered from the famine and disease which ravage the rest of the Kingdom. Yet riches and power only go so far, and even Anaitians can be executed. It is only by the will of the King that Nate Anteros, son of the King's favourite, is spared from the gallows after openly dissenting. But when he's released from prison, Nate disappears. A stark contrast, Catherine Taenia has spent her entire life comfortable and content. The daughter of the King's Hangman and in love with Thom, Nate's younger brother, her life has always been easy, ordered and comfortable. That is, where it doesn't concern Nate. His actions sullied not only his future, but theirs. And unlike Thom, Catherine has never forgiven him. Two years pass without a word, and then one night Nate returns. But things with Nate are never simple, and when one wrong move turns their lives upside down, the only thing left to do is run where the King's guards cannot find them - the Outlands. Those wild, untamed lands which stretch around the great walls of the Kingdom, filled with mutants and rabids.

As the god of death, Hades has had a complicated past with emotions. As it is, she prefers to not have them. It's an opinion often ignored by her unlikely best friend, Eros, the god of love.

False loves fade until one day Hades finds her gaze lingering on Persephone, the goddess of Spring. Eros takes the shot. Bound by the arrow, Hades and Persephone are trapped in the Underworld together, determined to ignore each other until the arrow fades. Hades and Persephone war against themselves and the expectations that weigh on them as an unshakable trust grows between them. Persephone isn't as bright as people believe and Hades isn't as dark. As they grow to accept each other's complexities, trust turns to love and they prepare to fight back against fate.
