Love and the right timing were two things I didn't believe in. Love is about walking to the edge of the cliff and taking the leap together. Timing was never on our side. My first mistake was hooking up with my best friend. My second came years later, when we met again, and I fell for her. My third was letting her go, because I had to. Because a love like this wasn't built to withstand the winds coming in our direction. Love and timing. I didn't believe in either. Then there was you....

Alexander of Gadara is a simple man—a potter, a husband, a father—until the world he knows begins to slip away. Strange dreams haunt him. Hours vanish without explanation. Voices whisper from the edges of waking. And the man he has always been starts to fracture. When a legion of ancient spirits seizes his body and mind, Alexander becomes a terror to his own city, a prisoner inside himself, forced to watch as the life he built is torn apart. But in the depths of madness, something older stirs—memories of a soul that has lived countless lives, carrying a purpose older than the world.

She was the bright girl in the cherry-colored scarf. The laugh that warmed the kitchen. The object of a gaze so consuming it replaced the woman underneath. For over a century, readers have experienced Edith Wharton's Ethan Frome through a single lens — the frame narrator's reconstruction of a man's longing, a man's entrapment, a man's despair. Mattie Silver, the young woman at the center of the tragedy, exists only as the object of that gaze: the dark-haired girl at the dance, the bright thing in the dark house, the body on the sled. We never learn what Mattie was thinking.

We were Army Rangers, the best of the best. And then one day, everything that we worked so hard to become was ripped away. Now, we're in some podunk town, trying to find a sense of normal among the crazy, and learn how to live again. That gets a hell of a lot harder to do when a virus spreads mercilessly across the country, killing 85 percent of the people who contract it. In the midst of the panic, we're tasked with one last rescue mission. It's just our luck that the fool we're rescuing doesn't believe that the world as we know it is actually ending.

Philosophe discret menant une vie d'une régularité quasi légendaire, Emmanuel Kant n'en demeure pas moins l'un des penseurs les plus audacieux et les plus décisifs de l'histoire de la philosophie.

Qui étaient vraiment les sophistes, ces maîtres de parole capables d'enthousiasmer la jeunesse athénienne et d'inquiéter Socrate, Platon ou Aristote ? Cet ouvrage clair et vivant dévoile l'univers de Protagoras, Gorgias, Hippias et Prodicos : leurs idées, leur influence et les débats décisifs qu'ils ont ouverts sur la vérité, la justice, la démocratie ou le pouvoir du langage. Entre relativisme, scepticisme et invention d'une nouvelle éthique, les sophistes ont posé les bases d'une pensée lucide et pragmatique, dont les échos résonnent encore aujourd'hui.

Eight Seconds to Eternity isn’t written from a seminary classroom. It’s written from the arena. In a world where many avoid the book of Revelation because it feels confusing, intense, or overwhelming, professional barrel racer and bestselling author Marci Powell steps into it with clarity, grit, and unshakable faith.

Before clarity, there was confusion. The Book of Daniel is one of the most powerful and symbolic books in the Bible—but for many people, it is also one of the hardest to understand. From fiery furnaces to lions' dens, from kings and kingdoms to prophetic visions of the future, Daniel is filled with moments that are easy to listen to… but difficult to fully grasp. The language, the symbolism, and the historical context can leave you listening without truly understanding. The Book of Daniel Decoded changes that.
