Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The time is the first decade of the twenty-first century. The place is Tokyo, Japan – specifically, the ward known as Shinjuku. An 8.5 earthquake shatters Shinjuku, destroying buildings and streets and turning the bustling ward into a haunted ghost town plagued by the paranormal and the bizarre. Scientists and ESP investigators – along with criminals, enterprising yakuza gangs and mutant cyborgs – come to “Demon City”; some to study the effects of the Devil Quake, others to commit heinous acts of savage violence, and still others to live freely in this lawless town on the edge of the abyss. This is the world of Demon City Shinjuku and how it all began. It is now 2030 and President Kozumi Rama of the World Federation is attacked by an otherworldly demon – Reba Ra, an evil sorcerer of immense power. The only person who can stop Ra is yogi Master Agni Rai’s former apprentice, Genichiro Izayoi – but Genichiro is dead. His son, Kyoya Izayoi, a high school student and the inheritor of Izayoi’s killer nenpo martial arts technique, now enters Shinjuku to try to stop Sorcerer Ra from unleashing the ultimate horror in Demon City. The fate of Shinjuku – and the rest of the world – hangs in the balance. The story of Demon City Shinjuku continues in Demon Palace Babylon, included in this special two-volume complete edition. Acclaimed Japanese horror writer Hideyuki Kikuchi (Vampire Hunter D) established the Wicked City universe with his debut novels Demon City Shinjuku and Demon Palace Babylon. Discover the origins of Dr. Mephisto and the Yashakiden: The Demon Princess series in this new English-language omnibus edition!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The north and the west and the south are good hunting ground, but it is forbidden to go east. It is forbidden to go to any of the Dead Places except to search for metal and then he who touches the metal must be a priest or the son of a priest. Afterwards, both the man and the metal must be purified. These are the rules and the laws; they are well made. It is forbidden to cross the great river and look upon the place that was the Place of the Gods-this is most strictly forbidden. We do not even say its name though we know its name. It is there that spirits live, and demons-it is there that there are the ashes of the Great Burning. These things are forbidden- they have been forbidden since the beginning of time.

Book Synopsis Assyria to Iberia at the Dawn of the Classical Age by : Joan Aruz
Download or read book Assyria to Iberia at the Dawn of the Classical Age written by Joan Aruz and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2014-09-15 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together the research of internationally renowned scholars, Assyria to Iberia at the Dawn of the Classical Age contributes significantly to our understanding of the epoch-making artistic and cultural exchanges that took place across the Near East and Mediterranean in the early first millennium B.C. This was the world of Odysseus, in which seafaring Phoenician merchants charted new nautical trade routes and established prosperous trading posts and colonies on the shores of three continents; of kings Midas and Croesus, legendary for their wealth; and of the Hebrew Bible, whose stories are brought vividly to life by archaeological discoveries. Objects drawn from collections in the Middle East, Europe, North Africa, and the United States, reproduced here in sumptuous detail, reflect the cultural encounters of diverse populations interacting through trade, travel, and migration as well as war and displacement. Together, they tell a compelling story of the origins and development of Western artistic traditions that trace their roots to the ancient Near East and across the Mediterranean world. Among the masterpieces brought together in this volume are stone reliefs that adorned the majestic palaces of ancient Assyria; expertly crafted Phonecian and Syrian bronzes and worked ivories that were stored in the treasuries of Assyria and deposited in tombs and sanctuaries in regions far to the west; and lavish personal adornments and other luxury goods, some imported and others inspired by Near Eastern craftsmanship. Accompanying texts by leading scholars position each object in cultural and historical context, weaving a narrative of crisis and conquest, worship and warfare, and epic and empire that spans both continents and millennia. Writing another chapter in the story begun in Art of the First Cities (2003) and Beyond Babylon (2008), Assyria to Iberia offers a comprehensive overview of art, diplomacy, and cultural exchange in an age of imperial and mercantile expansion in the ancient Near East and across the Mediterranean in the first millennium B.C.—the dawn of the Classical age.

Book Synopsis The Testament of Solomon by : King Solomon
Download or read book The Testament of Solomon written by King Solomon and published by . This book was released on 2017-03-15 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of the Testament of Solomon is a complete and accurate reprint of the original translation of ancient manuscripts by F.C. Conybeare first printed in 1898. It contains all Conybeare's original notes and commentary, including the Greek characters he footnoted for the reader's consideration. Beware of other editions of this work that do not contain all the original text. The Testament of Solomon is a pseudepigraphical work attributed to King Solomon the Wise of the Old Testament. Written in the first-person narrative, the book tells the story of the creation of the magical ring of King Solomon and how Solomon's ring was used to bind and control demons, including Beelzebub. In this book of King Solomon, the discourses between the King and the various spirits are told, and the story shows how Solomon uses his wisdom to withstand the demons' tricks and guile and enlist their aid in the building of his temple. The spells and seals of Solomon used by the King to bind the spirits are detailed, which makes this work a book of Solomon's magic, similar in nature to the Lesser Key of Solomon the King and the Greater Key of Solomon the King, which both are King Solomon books of magic and contain various talismans of Solomon, including the secret seal of Solomon. The manuscripts from which this work was discovered date from the 15th, 16th, and 17th centuries. All were written in Greek. This dating makes most experts believe that the work is medieval. But some scholars, including D.C. Duling, argue that it is likely that the work comes from the 5th or 6th centuries. The various manuscripts used to source the work all date to medieval times, but the text itself, as well as references to other works, indicate the Testament is much older. For example, in the Dialogue of Timothy and Aquila, there is a direct reference to the Testament of Solomon. The Dialogue purports to have been written during the Archbishopric of Cyril in 444 C.E., and therefore, its reference would date the Testament before that time. Similarly, in the early 4th century Gnostic text On the Origin of the World, references to the book of Solomon and his 49 demons are made. No matter the date, the text provides an immensely interesting description of how King Solomon tamed various demons to build his temple. The text includes predictions of the coming of Christ, as one demon explains to Solomon that while he may be bound, the only thing that can truly take his power away is the man born from a virgin who will be crucified by the Jews.

Download or read book The World of Achaemenid Persia written by John Curtis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest and fascination in Achaemenid Persia has burgeoned in recent years. It is time for a major new appraisal of the glorious civilization founded by Cyrus the Great and continued by his successors, the Great Kings Darius I, Xerxes and Artaxerxes I. This volume offers precisely that: a sustained and comprehensive overview of the field of Achaemenid studies by leading scholars and experts. It discusses all aspects of Achaemenid history and archaeology between 550 BCE and 330 BCE, and embraces the whole vast territory of the Persian Empire from North Africa to India and from Central Asia to the Persian Gulf. Topics covered in this title include aspects of Achaemenid religion, administration, material culture, ethnicity, gender and the survival of Achaemenid traditions. The publication of the book is an event: it represents a watershed not only in better appreciation and understanding of the rich and complex cultural heritage established by Cyrus, but also of the lasting significance of the Achaemenid kings and the impact that their remarkable civilization has had on wider Persian and Middle Eastern history. First published by I.B.Tauris in association with the Iran Heritage Foundation
