The same night the Earl of Danbury is murdered in his bed. Against all odds it appears that the murders are related - and Anthony Douglas, the new Lord Danbury, is bent on revenge. The clues point to the former Earl's first naval command. In 1758 the Earl spirited away and hid the magnificent Peacock Throne at the behest of the Indian royal family. To draw out the murderer, Anthony and Lydia agree that they must locate the throne. However, they are not the only ones interested in the Peacock Throne.

When the amateur sleuths join forces with the professional agent, the quest for the throne leads them around the globe on an adventure steeped in danger, treachery, and romance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A mysterious radiance slowly developed in the dark alley, growing in intensity, gradually taking the form of an alluring full-bodied woman with ghostly braided locks, startling everyone, including Worthy Deen. The specter was as translucent and elusive as a wisp of fog, sparkling with eldritch power. Her fluttering robes gave the appearance of soft, fuzzy, white light. Her features were indistinct but captivating, and her bare, ghostly feet spurned the filth of the walkway over which she floated, eerily peering at the gathering.” Throne of the Peacock Angel is a twisted and captivating tale of mystery, murder, mysticism and betrayal, in which the protagonist, Worthy Deen, is reluctantly entangled. Worthy Deen is a successful, yet reclusive business owner in New Orleans whose life is capsized by influential and ruthless forces. Additionally, Worthy carries a terrible and haunting secret that grants him paranormal abilities while exacting a horrific toll. Join Worthy Deen as he battles with life and limb to unravel the candlelit mysteries and arcane secrets of New Orleans, Charleston and the timeless Sea Islands of the South Carolina coast.

Download or read book 1637: The Peacock Throne written by Eric Flint and published by Baen Books. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 679 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The assassinated Shah Jahan lies entombed beside his beloved wife in the Taj Mahal, while their progeny drag the Mughal Empire into a three-sided struggle over the succession to the Peacock Throne. The diplomatic and trade mission from the United States of Europe is openly siding with Princess Jahanara and her brother Dara Shikoh. The mission, made up largely of Americans transplanted in time by the Ring of Fire, is providing the siblings with technical assistance as they prepare to fight their rivals for the throne, Aurangzeb and Shah Shuja. Meanwhile, the Afghan adventurer Salim Gadh Yilmaz, confidant of two emperors—Shah Jahan and now his son Dara Shikoh—has been elevated to the position of general. He has great challenges to face, not the least of which is resisting the fierce and forbidden mutual attraction between himself and Princess Jahanara. As the conflict deepens, the junior members of the mission are sent east to buy opium needed by the USE’s doctors. Their guide, merchant Jadu Das, has an agenda of his own, one entrusted to him by Jahanara: seek out her great uncle, Asaf Khan, and promise whatever is needed to bring his army over to Dara’s side. The USE’s mission was sent to India in search of goods needed in Europe. But now they find that straightforward task has become enmeshed in a great civil war—for control of the Peacock Throne.

Book Synopsis How to Sit on the Throne of the Godless God of the Seventh Day by : Venerable Zen Master Vajra Karuna
Download or read book How to Sit on the Throne of the Godless God of the Seventh Day written by Venerable Zen Master Vajra Karuna and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2020-06-17 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps you’ve thought that the traditional ways of understanding God are lacking in resonance and relevance—that there must be more to the concept of divinity than the anthropomorphic, gender-exclusionary, ethically and logically problematic God of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. If so, this beautiful book may be the path to enlightenment that you’ve been seeking. Uthimaniyya, or Trans-Sufism, embraces the idea that there is an ultimate spiritual experience, called The Consciousness of the Eternal Now, or Sitting on the Throne of God. This experience is not dependent on any past religion—instead, it is realized through observing a mathematically mystical version of the Seventh Day (the Throne Sabbath) that is more compatible with a belief in God as everything, and everything as God. Since a God that is everything cannot have a personhood, it is referred to as the impersonal God, or the Godless God. The Throne Sabbath is based on a radical reinterpretation of the biblical and qur’anic myth of the creation of the world in six days, and a seventh day when the Creator rested (Bible) or retreated to His throne (Qur’an). Inspiring and transcendent, How to Sit on the Throne of the Godless God is the guide you need to access a new viewpoint.
