Where do you run when a world is out to get you? AIs, Forged beings, superheroes, angels, and worlds that change in the blink of an eye—here is a richly imagined tale of ordinary redemption in an extraordinary world from one of the most provocative writers working today. . . . Francine is a young runaway looking to find a definition of love she can trust. In Sankhara, she finds a palace where rooms are made of bone, flowers, and the hearts of heroes. She finds a scientist mapping the territory of the human mind. She finds a boyfriend. And she finds Eros itself—incarnated in the androgynously irresistible form of Jalaeka. But not everyone is in love with the god of love. Unity, for one, wants to assimilate Jalaeka along with every other soul in the universe. And contrary to what everyone always believes, love alone can’t save the day. It will take something both more and less powerful than the human heart to save the worlds upon worlds at risk when gods collide. “For Robson, world-building is a literary device like any other, useful for exposing buried fears and desires to the light of day, no matter how strange the sun.”—New York Times Book Review

BACKING IN THE FRONT DOOR Stories of experiencing God's interruptions in our well-organized lives. So often Christians wanting to serve God have definite plans on how God should use us to the best of our abilities. Many times He chooses to use us in completely different ways. Much of what we have considered success over the past 20 years have been events and activities that were totally unintentional on our part. These stories show how God uses circumstances, locations and other people to have us do the work He had planned for us in the beginning. Some are humorous, while others have a certain sadness about them, but all tell how God can use anyone who says 'yes' to Him.
