Mining the rich Venetian archives, especially the unusually detailed records of Venice's own branch of the Roman Inquisition, Guido Ruggiero provides a strikingly new and provocative interpretation of the end of the Renaissance in Italy. In this boldly structured work, he develops five narrative accounts of individual encounters with the Inquisition that illustrate the double-edged metaphor of how passions were both bound by late Renaissance society and were seen in turn as binding people. In this way new perspectives are opened on magic, witchcraft, love, marriage, gender, and discipline at the level of the community and beyond. Witches, courtesans, prostitutes, women healers, nobles, Cardinals, and renegade priests and monks speak from these pages describing their lives, beliefs, hopes, fears, and lies. With an imaginative flair for storytelling and impeccable scholarship, Ruggiero exposes the rich complexity of the culture and poetics of the everyday at the end of the Renaissance and illuminates a previously unexplored chapter in Italian history.

From USA Today Bestselling Author M.L. Philpitt, comes the complete Witches' Bind Trilogy in one volume. This collection contains three paranormal romances featuring vampires, witches, and shifters: Cure Bound, Moon Bound, & Union Bound. Three romances. Three twists of fate. One outcome. CURE BOUND: A Dark Vampire Paranormal Romance Fate no longer matters when revenge is too delicious. I vowed to wipe out the entire Sinclair coven after one of theirs took what mattered most to me. She’s all that’s left. Driven by centuries of hate and a long-standing vow, I strike the deal: sell her blood in exchange for her life. MOON BOUND: A Rejected Mates Shifter Romance Fate will not win when freedom is the heavy cost. I needed magic to save my dying father. She gives me more than I bargained for when I realize she’s my future. I won’t let her go, as even if she’s chosen to fight me on this, she belongs with me. UNION BOUND: An Arranged Marriage Witch Romance Fate always changes when emotions rule sanity. I have the magic of many, and with it, a wife I don’t want. But temptation is too compelling, and when one kiss turns into one night and one night turns into multiple, Adalyn is all I come to think about. She’s all I see. All I want. Until fate changes. The Witches' Bind Trilogy has content some readers may find triggering.

“Epic fantasy at its finest—an homage to storytelling and legend, richly told and endlessly engaging.”—Andrea Stewart, author of The Bone Shard Daughter Don’t miss the first novel in this stunning Silk Road-inspired epic fantasy series from R.R. Virdi—a saga of legends, lies, and the secretive storyteller who’s spun them all. All legends are born of truths. And just as much lies. These are mine. Judge me for what you will. But you will hear my story first. I buried the village of Ampur under a mountain of ice and snow. Then I killed their god. I've stolen old magics and been cursed for it. I started a war with those that walked before mankind and lost the princess I loved, and wanted to save. I've called lightning and bound fire. I am legend. And I am a monster. My name is Ari. And this is the story of how I let loose the first evil. “Rich world-building, plenty of action, and devious twists abound. Very highly recommended!” —Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of V-Wars and Kagen the Damned At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

My assignment to write this collection of prophetic exposés on the subject of Binding The Strongman was given to me by God. It is to publicly expose some of the deceitful teachings in the Body of Christ that have been planted therein by satan: one is the apostolic session of the bishops, which is his attack on God's Kingdom governmental order; another is his attack on God's first ranking officers, His apostles, as well as a number of other issues the Lord had me to address proving that His apostles are more than just a function, and that His Apostles are not just a Proverb. Prophetic exposés are spiritual messages given by a prophet that publicly exposes the wicked works of satan which he has perpetrated against God's Kingdom on Planet Earth. During this writing process, I was spiritually confronted many times about how these messages would affect those I know and love in the various Christian ministries. However, the messages the Lord has given in this body of work are too precious to Him and are vital to His Body, the Church; therefore, I dare not allow them to be squashed or silenced by the enemy. For our Lord has said these truths must be delivered to and taught to this generation. He does not want another generation growing up with these lies and deception of the past and that is why He is bringing correction now to His Church. The lies and deceptions must be uncovered, challenged, and destroyed now to undo centuries of satanic anarchy in our assemblies. God's Word of truth, order, and rulership is being restored and reestablished in His Church. The purposes of these articles are that the brethren be strengthen by the teachings herein. Hence, I challenge you to gird up your loins with God's truth. God is calling forth the apostles to take their God-ordained place as His first ranking officers in His Church and in His Kingdom. We are to move forward to fulfill the mandate of God addressed in the articles written in this book, BINDING THE STRONGMAN-A Collection of Prophetic Exposés.

Miranda strives to please others. Her misogynistic family. Her abusive husband. She hid her elemental energy and gave up her dreams—including her first love, Matthew Trellis—to keep them all happy. She thought that's how life was supposed to be. Then she met her long-lost sister, Matilda, and found herself caught up in the Trellis family and their Circle. Matthew strives to be a good person. He spends his days teaching underprivileged children and his nights teaching English as a second language to immigrants. He works hard to keep his Chaos power under control. He let Miranda go once for her own good. He can do it again. Can't he? The rest of the Trellis clan would happily interfere in Matthew's love life.
