Описание:
"She was the one believed to fulfill the prophecies, you see. She was the long-awaited one. That is why she was killed, no doubt. And that is why there are those who swear she lives."
A single kiss saved their fabled love, but the same magic that saved them might also destroy them. Prince Ferryl knows that war is coming for the kingdom of Navah. It doesn't help that he is betrothed to the niece of the enemy king. But now that the memories of the love of his life have been restored, the real questions begin: who has magic? Who is using it against them? And who is Elizabeth, really?
When a dying prophet insists that the answers lie in the peaceful kingdom to the north, Ferryl and Elizabeth--with the help of a few friends--set off on a journey to the mountains in search of an absolution that will save the kingdom...and hopefully their love, once and for all.
But there, a prophecy long-since forgotten awaits them...and an unexpected twist of fate may damn their love forever.
The Purloined Prophecy is the second book in the highly-acclaimed Chalam F rytales series. Packed with page-turning mystery, breathtaking imagery, and swoon-worthy romance, this epic f rytale will enthrall readers from the very first page.
Описание: Inga Arvad was the great love of President John F. Kennedy's life, and also Adolf Hitler's special guest at the 1936 Berlin Olympics. She was an actress, a foreign correspondent, a popular Washington columnist, an explorer who lived among a tribe of headhunters, one of Hollywood's most influential gossip columnists, and a suspected Nazi spy. The latter nearly got Kennedy cashiered out of the Navy, but instead set in motion the chain of events that led to him becoming a war hero. Inga lived where gossip intersects with history, and her story, as told by author Scott Farris in Inga, is a rollicking story that demonstrates how private lives influence public events. It is also a Hitchcockian tale of how difficult it can be to prove innocence when unjustly accused, and how, as Inga phrased it, what was once a halo can slip down and become a hangman's noose. In addition to her romance with Kennedy and the attention of Hitler, Arvad married three times -- to an Egyptian diplomat who insisted they never had divorced, the brilliant filmmaker Paul Fejos whom Charlie Chaplin considered a genius, and the famed cowboy movie star Tim McCoy. She also had affairs with noted surgeon Dr. William Cahan, the prolific writer John Gunther, and Winston's Churchill's right hand man, Baron Robert Boothby. She was pursued by Wall Street financier Bernard Baruch, and Swedish industrialist Axel Wenner-Gren, reputedly the richest man in the world at the time, offered her $1 million to have his child. Inga was Miss Denmark of 1931, but by all accounts her admirers among the European and American elite loved Inga not for her physical beauty alone, but for her joie de vivre. She was a genius with people, she was daring and adventurous, and she was their equal in intellect. Like Isak Dinesen and Clare Boothe Luce, Inga Arvad led a life that both sheds light on and defies the stereotypes of women of her time.

Описание:
With one sacrifice remaining, the Rogue Demon is close to resurrecting history's most dangerous king. His sights are now set on the Intel Kingdom, a world power in the eyes of most.
This makes Bryson--considered the most talented Intelian currently alive--a prime target. Alas, he's found himself absent of all weaving abilities following his lightning storm during the Blizzard of Blood. He must discover a way to retain his electrical abilities before the Rogue Demon finds him.
As the world prepares for the eventual clash between titans, the rest of the Jestivan search for information about the Rogue Demon and those closest to him. They'll sail for whirlpools that connect realms, visit the holy city of trees where the very first sacrifice took place, and infiltrate the headquarters of the demon's operations.
Meanwhile, one Jestivan begins his translations of an ancient text from a timeline before his, learning of two Originators who sparked the end of an era. And another woman, once a Jestivan but long removed from her peers, seeks vengeance on an entire kingdom in a catastrophic way.
The empires have taken notice.

Описание:
Sara R. Farris examines the demands for women's rights from an unlikely collection of right-wing nationalist political parties, neoliberals, and some feminist theorists and policy makers. Focusing on contemporary France, Italy, and the Netherlands, Farris labels this exploitation and co-optation of feminist themes by anti-Islam and xenophobic campaigns as “femonationalism.” She shows that by characterizing Muslim males as dangerous to western societies and as oppressors of women, and by emphasizing the need to rescue Muslim and migrant women, these groups use gender equality to justify their racist rhetoric and policies. This practice also serves an economic function. Farris analyzes how neoliberal civic integration policies and feminist groups funnel Muslim and non-western migrant women into the segregating domestic and caregiving industries, all the while claiming to promote their emancipation. In the Name of Women's Rights documents the links between racism, feminism, and the ways in which non-western women are instrumentalized for a variety of political and economic purposes.
