Book Synopsis Mollebakken: Pocket Book Edition by : Eric Schumacher
Download or read book Mollebakken: Pocket Book Edition written by Eric Schumacher and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-16 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: King Harald Fairhair is dying. Who will rule in his stead? Viking Age Norway's greatest king, Harald Fairhair, has unified the northern districts into a kingdom, but as he ages and weakens, so does his realm. To keep the kingdom from fracturing, Harald abdicates his High Seat to the one son he believes capable and vicious enough: Erik Bloodaxe. But there is one problem: the other sons hate their brother, and will not accept his kingship. This leads to an unavoidable confrontation on a rain-soaked hill known as Mollebakken; a hill that will decide who will rule, and who will die. NOTE: This is the pocket book edition of Mollebakken, convenient to both read and take with you. Praise: ★★★★★ - "After having read the three excellent novels in the Hakon Saga, I was excited to find out that there was a novella telling the story before the story and from Erik's perspective. Schumacher's writing in this novella is tight and his pacing excellent. I read from start to finish without putting it down and was thoroughly engaged throughout the entire story." ★★★★★ - "A truly thoughtful depiction of Viking Age Scandinavia. Erik's wife plays a surprisingly large part, her foresight treated as a normal skill rather than something otherworldly. Their children may be mentioned more than seen, but the context gives both backstory and depth to the tale, making this a true Historical rather than a slash 'n' gore story. Highly recommended as a standalone, or as entry to the series."

Download or read book My Last Name written by Eric Schumacher and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This novella might be the most psychologically honest, narratively engaging, and spiritually beautiful thing I have read this year. The words from these pages haunted me long after I read them, and moved me to gratitude, wonder, and even joy. The word that comes to mind as I read this story is 'life.' Read it and see: what it kindles in you will enliven you." - Russell Moore"...a poignant reflection on life and dignity. In a single day of an elderly narrator, her life unfolds as she remembers key moments from her past with sharp clarity, even though she's restrained by the unreliable physical trappings of old age. In crafting a story that slides effortlessly between the past and the present with subtle symbolism and careful juxtaposition, Schumacher demonstrates the value of each moment of our lives, and the inherent worth of every person who enters-and exits-our individual narratives." - K. B. Hoyle "...a tender, sensitive, and quietly lyrical portrait, infused with a bright, longing ache. This exploration of the expansive interior life of an elderly character near death, reminds us that we are all living in the middle of stories--stories that are going somewhere. His readers are likely to feel some gentle tug of the eternal vicariously drawing their own hearts along." - Douglas Kaine McKelvey"I have probably written more than a hundred endorsements over the years. But I've never felt as inadequate as I do right now in trying to explain how important this writing is or how moved I was in reading it. ...a beautiful story, written by a poet who has thought deeply about aging and loss and redemption." - Elyse Fitzpatrick"Eric Schumacher invites readers into an assisted living unit and introduces us to Lottie, who is drifting slowly between periods of cognitive decline and moments of clarity in the last movement of her long life. Lottie's past and present unfold in this remarkable novella with unflinching dignity. The grace of Schumacher's spare and shimmering writing make 'My Last Name' a story readers won't soon forget." - Michelle Van Loon

Book Synopsis The Du Lac Chronicles by : Mary Anne Yarde
Download or read book The Du Lac Chronicles written by Mary Anne Yarde and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-21 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An evocative, timeless saga of love and betrayal" Tony Riches, author of The Tudor Trilogy. "It is dangerous to become attached to a du Lac. He will break your heart, and you will not recover." So prophesies a wizened healer to Annis, daughter of King Cerdic of Wessex. If there is truth in the old crone's words, they come far too late for Annis, who defies father, king, and country to save the man she loves. Alden du Lac, once king of Cerniw, has nothing. Betrayed by Cerdic, Alden's kingdom lies in rubble, his fort razed to the ground and his brother Merton missing, presumably dead. He has only one possession left worth saving: his heart. And to the horror of his few remaining allies, he gives that to the daughter of his enemy. They see Annis, at best, as a bargaining chip to avoid war with her powerful father. At worst, they see a Saxon witch with her claws in a broken, wounded king. Alden has one hope: When you war with one du Lac, you war with them all. His brother Budic, King of Brittany, could offer the deposed young king sanctuary-but whether he will offer the same courtesy to Annis is far less certain. The Du Lac Chronicles from Mary Anne Yarde is a new story based on Arthurian Legend and the great historical/fantasy fiction tradition of Bernard Cornwall, C.M.Grey and Kim Headlee. The Du Lac Chronicles has a recommend reading age of 14+

Book Synopsis A History of Christianity in India by : Stephen Neill
Download or read book A History of Christianity in India written by Stephen Neill and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1984-02-09 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians form the third largest religious community in India. How has this come about? There are many studies of separate groups: but there has so far been no major history of the three large groups - Roman Catholic, Protestant and Thomas Christians (Syrians). This work attempts to meet the need for such a history. It goes right back to the beginning and traces the story through the ups and downs of at least fifteen centuries. It includes careful studies of the political and social background and of the non-Christian reactions to the Christian message. The narration is non-technical and should present few difficulties to the thoughtful reader; the more technical matters are dealt with in notes and appendices. This book will be of interest to all students of Church History and will also prove fascinating to many who are concerned with the development of Christianity as a world religion and in the dialogue between different forms of faith.
Book Synopsis Transnational Religious Organization and Practice by : Stanley J. Valayil C. John
Download or read book Transnational Religious Organization and Practice written by Stanley J. Valayil C. John and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-02-19 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Transnational Religious Organization and Practice Stanley John provides the first in-depth analysis of a migrant Christian community in the Arabian Gulf. The book explores how Kerala (South India) Pentecostal churches in Kuwait organize and practice their Christian faith, given the status of their congregants as temporary economic migrants and noting that the transient status heightens their transnational orientation toward their homeland in India. The research follows a twofold agenda: first, examining the unique sociopolitical and migrational context within which the KPCs function, and second, analyzing the transnational character and structural patterns that have emerged in this context. The ethnographic research identifies and analyzes the emerging structures and practices of the KPCs through three lenses: networks, agents, and mission. This study concludes with a proposal for an interdisciplinary theoretical framework to be employed in the study of transnational religious communities.
