The farm made it through winter and Kain his first full year. The debt didn't go anywhere. Kain owes fifty silver on a horse and has four new plots that won't plant themselves. The east side of the property sits on a clay hardpan that nobody mentioned when he bought the place. Breaking through it is weeks of pickaxe work he didn't plan for.

Kain Asheld put a marker to the three people closest to him on a quiet ridge overlooking the valley where they'd always promised to meet. His brother Mark never wanted the mercenary life. He wanted to farm. He never got the chance. Kain bought the land with his share of a final bounty and a desperate need for silence. The locals call it Madder's Place. Ten acres of rotting floorboards, a collapsed roof, and fields the wild took back a decade ago. They'd been talking about burning it down.

Time keeps moving for Kain. The new season should mean planting, repairs, and honest work that leaves a man too tired to worry. The fields need turning. The fences need mending. Then the outsiders arrive. Adventurers pour into Tillamore chasing rumors of a new dungeon north of the valley, beyond the places Kain’s wolf refuses to enter. Kain wants nothing to do with dungeons. He has seed to put down and neighbors who need his help, even when pride keeps them quiet. The people of Tillamore gave Kain a home when he needed one.

In Out of the Embers, Bradley Jersak explores the necessity, perils, and possibilities of the Great Deconstruction—how it has the potential to either sabotage our communion with God or infuse it with the breath of life, the light and life of Christ himself.

In 1860, the roiling conflict over slavery swept the United States into a war between diehard factions. Several states in the South declared they were no longer part of the Union. On April 12, 1861, Confederate partisans attacked the small Federal force holding Fort Sumter in South Carolina’s Charleston harbor. Newly elected President Lincoln raised an army to put down the rebellion. Many veteran officers rose up on both sides to lead the ensuing fight. The burden of the war fell on ordinary Americans.

In the spring of 1973, a teacher in a Lincoln, Nebraska classroom handed an eight-year-old boy a blue armband marked S, for slave, and set the brown-eyed children over him for the day. The next morning the roles reversed. No one in that room was Black. The lesson, the teacher said, was empathy.

What ensues is nothing short of epic-with fierce battles between evil and good and tensions just simmering under the surface.

The conquest of Native America is usually told as two thefts, the theft of the land and the killing of the people. Beyond the Burial Tree adds a third, harder to see because it left no acreage and no body count: the seizure of a people's authority over its own dead. The right to decide how the dead are mourned, where they rest, and whether they remain present to the living was carried off along with the ground and the lives, and that taking is the subject of this book. David Boles tells it through the people whose river raised him.

‘Joy Beyond All Worlds’ gathers Alvin F. Kimel Jr.’s reflections on the greater hope of the gospel: the unconditional grace of the Holy Trinity, the destiny of creation in Christ, and the final triumph of divine love. Drawing on Scripture, the Church Fathers, George MacDonald, David Bentley Hart, and J. R. R. Tolkien, Kimel argues that Christian hope must be measured by the boundless goodness of God.

An unknown warrior seeks to Shatter the barrier between the isle of Styrke and Tomrom.

In the British Museum's Mesopotamian galleries, behind glass, sits a clay mask approximately three thousand eight hundred years old. The face was made to terrify. Hooded sockets sink the eyes into darkness, intestinal coils wrap the brow, and a chipped tooth grins from the left side of the mouth. The mask was paid for. Somebody walked silver from a temple administrator's hand to a workshop, where an artisan converted clay and several days of labor into a working monster, and the figure left the workshop on a delivery cart for a fee. The specific contract has not survived.

Nobody teaches you how to grieve. This is the strange truth at the center of an experience so common it touches every person who has ever lived long enough to lose someone. A hybrid cultural investigation and memoir that asks what grief is, where it comes from, who controls it, and what happens when the structures designed to support it are broken. From the neuroscience of loss to the mourning rituals of the Torajan highlands, the burning ghats of Varanasi, and the jazz funerals of New Orleans, this book traces grief across biology, history, culture, economics, and the deeply personal.

A job offer from Claude Etcheverry, a wealthy rancher who has amassed a private army of cyborgs to monopolize Copperbank’s water supply, pulls Doniphon into a budding range war.

Abandoned in Place is a work of cultural criticism that traces the pattern of institutional abandonment from the personal to the political. Beginning with the author's own childhood, the book identifies the grammar by which abandonment is disguised: the passive voice that removes the actor, the euphemism that renames the departure, the appeal to inevitability that converts a decision into a condition, and the therapeutic instruction that recruits the abandoned into the management of their own forgetting.

Jerusalem — a city on edge. Empires collide, faiths clash, and one execution will alter the fate of the world. But this isn’t the story you think you know. In The Roads to Golgotha, the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth forms the backdrop to an epic human drama. Through the eyes of six ordinary people, we witness history unfolding — not in prophecy or miracle, but in duty, politics, and survival.
