But there's a key difference between now and the last time he worked for them. They're stuck in Hell while he reigns in Harrium. He has no plans to serve his former masters. But despite the infernal powers circling him like vultures, Rys has unfinished business he needs to resolve. The Malus League retreated to lick its wounds after their confrontation with him, but he lacked the power to crush them once and for all. That needs to change and to do that he must reinforce his armies and construct alliances. If only the foxes from abroad would stop meddling in his affairs. Rys has enough on his plate without it being smothered in fluffy tails all the time. Demon's Throne is an empire-building series with violence, undefined relationships, beast girls, and scenes that don't fade to black. Consider yourself warned.

That she will become like Malon, blind to the repercussions of channeling the power of the gods. As these two unlikely friends race to reunite, the Empire descends into chaos.

Book Synopsis Demons in the Details by : Sara Ronis
Download or read book Demons in the Details written by Sara Ronis and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2022-08-09 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Babylonian Talmud is full of stories of demonic encounters, and it also includes many laws that attempt to regulate such encounters. In this book, Sara Ronis takes the reader on a journey across the rabbinic canon, exploring how late antique rabbis imagined, feared, and controlled demons. Ronis contextualizes the Talmud's thought within the rich cultural matrix of Sasanian Babylonia, placing rabbinic thinking in conversation with Sumerian, Akkadian, Ugaritic, Syriac Christian, Zoroastrian, and Second Temple Jewish texts about demons to delve into the interactive communal context in which the rabbis created boundaries between the human and the supernatural, and between themselves and other religious communities. Demons in the Details explores the wide range of ways that the rabbis participated in broader discussions about beliefs and practices with their neighbors, out of which they created a profoundly Jewish demonology.

Book Synopsis The Divine/Demonic Seven and the Place of Demons in Mesopotamia by : Gina Konstantopoulos
Download or read book The Divine/Demonic Seven and the Place of Demons in Mesopotamia written by Gina Konstantopoulos and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-06-12 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Divine/Demonic Seven and the Place of Demons in Mesopotamia, Gina Konstantopoulos analyses the Sebettu, a group of seven divine/demonic figures found across a wide range of Mesopotamian textual and artistic sources in Mesopotamia from the late third to first millennium BCE. The Sebettu appeared both as fierce, threatening demons and as divine, protective, figures. These seemingly contradictory qualities worked together, as their martial ferocity facilitated their religious and political role. When used in royal inscriptions, they became fierce warriors attacking the king’s enemies, retaining that demonic nature. This flexibility was not unique to the Sebettu, and this study thus provides a lens through which to examine the place of demons in Mesopotamia as a whole.

Book Synopsis The Taming of the Demons by : Jacob Paul Dalton
Download or read book The Taming of the Demons written by Jacob Paul Dalton and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-28 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Taming of the Demons" examines mythic and ritual themes of violence, demon taming, and blood sacrifice in Tibetan Buddhism. Taking as its starting point Tibet's so-called age of fragmentation (842 to 986 C.E.), the book draws on previously unstudied manuscripts discovered in the "library cave" near Dunhuang, on the old Silk Road. These ancient documents, it argues, demonstrate how this purportedly inactive period in Tibetan history was in fact crucial to the Tibetan assimilation of Buddhism, and particularly to the spread of violent themes from tantric Buddhism into Tibet at the local and the popular levels. Having shed light on this "dark age" of Tibetan history, the second half of the book turns to how, from the late tenth century onward, the period came to play a vital symbolic role in Tibet, as a violent historical "other" against which the Tibetan Buddhist tradition defined itself.

The magi warn Eric that the task of defeating the second legendary dragon pales in comparison to conquering the first legendary dragon, Indica. The Dragon Hunter Guild’s master, Artemia, cautions him that a mind controlled by rage will only weaken his skills. His mentor, Abe, worries that Eric’s bloodlust blinds him to some dark truths. But Ragnor consumes Eric’s mind. He will not let anything stop him. He would watch everything burn to the ground in the name of vengeance. He knows he will get his chance. But in doing so, he may very well sacrifice everything—including his friends, his world, and himself.

Book Synopsis Gods and Demons, Priests and Scholars by : Bruce Lincoln
Download or read book Gods and Demons, Priests and Scholars written by Bruce Lincoln and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bruce Lincoln is one of the most prominent advocates within religious studies for an uncompromisingly critical approach to the phenomenon of religion—historians of religions, he believes, should resist the preferred narratives and self-understanding of religions themselves, especially when their stories are endowed with sacred origins and authority. In Gods and Demons, Priests and Scholars, Lincoln assembles a collection of essays that both illustrates and reveals the benefits of his methodology, making a case for a critical religious studies that starts with skepticism but is neither cynical nor crude. The book begins with Lincoln’s “Theses on Method” and ends with “The (Un)discipline of Religious Studies,” in which he unsparingly considers the failings of uncritical and nonhistorical approaches to the study of religions. In between, Lincoln presents new examinations of problems in ancient religions and relates these cases to larger comparative themes. While bringing to light important features of the formation of pantheons and the constructions of demons, chaos, and the dead, Lincoln demonstrates that historians of religions should take religious things—inspired scriptures, sacred centers, salvific rites, communities graced by divine favor—as the theories of interested humans that shape perception, community, and experiences. As he shows, it is for their terrestrial influence, and not their sacred origins, that religious phenomena merit consideration by the historian. Tackling many questions central to religious study, Gods and Demons, Priests and Scholars will be a touchstone for the history of religions in the twenty-first century.
