Synopsis Toil & Trouble by : Mairghread Scott

Something wicked this way comes. The three fates—Riata, Cait, and Smertae—have always been guiding and protecting Scotland unseen, indirectly controlling the line of kings according to the old religion. When there is a disagreement between the weird sisters, Riata and Smertae will use men as pawns, and Smertae will direct Macbeth to a crown he was never meant to have. This re-telling of Macbeth from the witches point of view is brought to life by Mairghread Scott (TRANSFORMERS: Windblade, LANTERN CITY), and illustrated by talented duo Kelly & Nichole Matthews. TOIL AND TROUBLEbrings a new and inventive take on the tragedy we all know and love.

Synopsis The Forgotten Witches of Ancient Israel by : Rev. Dr. Richard E. Kuykendall

The Forgotten Witches of Ancient Israel asks the question: Who were the witches in biblical times, and what did they do that was so horrible that Exodus 22:18 would give the commandment Thou shalt not allow a witch to live? These are the words that fueled the fires of the Burning Times, when witches were burned throughout Europe for a number of centuries. In this book, we will not only explore the Bible for answers of who they were and what they did, but we will also consider the Burning Times, as well as what modern witchcraft is today, for that we can truly know.

Synopsis To Cook a Bear by : Mikael Niemi

AN INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER | A SUNDAY TIMES UK BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR | SHORTLISTED FOR THE CWA CRIME FICTION IN TRANSLATION AWARD “So much to relish here . . . and the writing is just lovely!” —Diane Setterfield, New York Times bestselling author of The Thirteenth Tale and Once Upon a River A fantastic tale set in the far north of Sweden in 1852 following a runaway Sami boy and his mentor, the famous pastor Laestadius, as they investigate a murder in their village along with the mysteries of life. Jussi, a runaway, becomes Laestadius's faithful son and disciple, and the two set out on botanical treks filled with philosophical discussions where Jussi learns all about plants and nature; and also how to read and write and about spirituality. But their quiet days are interrupted when a maid goes missing in the forest. When she is found dead, the locals suspect a predatory bear is at large. The constable is quick to offer a reward for capturing it, but Laestadius sees other traces that point to a far worse killer on the loose. After another maid is severely injured, Jussi and the pastor work to track down the murderer, unaware of the evil that is closing in on them. For it is revivalist times, and impassioned faith spreads like wildfire among the locals. While Laestadius's powerful Sunday sermons grant salvation to farmers and workers, they gain him enemies among local rulers, who see profits dwindle as people choose revival over alcohol. A completely absorbing and unforgettable novel, To Cook a Bear both entertains and burrows deep down into the great philosophical questions of life.

Synopsis On the Edge of Infinity by : Clemens Cavallin

This book tells the story of Michael O'Brien, one of the most popular Catholic novelists and painters of our times. It covers his life from his childhood in the Canadian Arctic to the crucial decision in 1976 to devote himself wholly to Christian sacred arts, followed by his inspiration to write fiction and his best-selling apocalyptic novel, Father Elijah. The story then continues to the present with explorations of O'Brien's other works. O'Brien's life is one of struggle against all odds to reestablish Christian culture in the materialist void created by the modern Western world. It is a timely reminder of hope in trials and sufferings, of endurance during marginalization and poverty. This is the first biography of O'Brien, and it also provides an introduction to his novels, paintings, and essays. The author, Clemens Cavallin, was granted unrestricted access to Michael O'Brien's personal archive, including his diary from the late 1970s until the present day. By revealing sides of O'Brien's interior creative life--including mystical experiences, spiritual battles, and illuminations—he has painted a portrait of a contemporary visual and literary artist whose inspiration arises from an intense fusion of imagination and active faith.

Synopsis The Girl, the Ghost and the Lost Name by : Reece Carter

The House with Chicken Legs meets The Graveyard Book, The Girl, the Ghost and the Lost Name fizzes with secret magic and ghostly goings-on, from an astonishing new voice in children's fiction. With a body made of wax, seaweed for hair, and polished abalone shells for eyes, Corpse is bound to haunt the Witches' sea shack forever. She has no memory of who she was before the Witches took her to the rock-that-doesn't-exist, or even what her name was. That is, until a ghost called Old Man gives her a message before he departs to Death Proper: a treasure exists that can reunite Corpse with her family and her name. Corpse sets off in search of answers, bringing her trusted friend Simon, a huntsman spider, along for the ride. She must battle magic, zombie-skeletons and sea monsters to find the treasure before the Witches. But is the treasure really all that it seems?

Synopsis A CURMUDGEON?S COMMENTARY ON THE BOOK OF REVELATION by : REV. DR. RICHARD E. KUYKENDALL

A Curmudgeon's Commentary on the Book of Revelation is both a scholarly and satirical look at one of the Bible's most enigmatic, mystifying, and sometimes even terrifying books. People of all generations have speculated as to the identity of the Beast of Revelation. It was thought that he might be Nero, the papacy, Hitler, Gorbachev, or Saddam Hussein. And writers on the book span the spectrum from Isaac Newton to Edgar Cayce, to D. H. Lawrence, and even to David Koresh. So here's another stab at it this time, however, from a curmudgeon. And if you don't know what that is, look it up!
