So when a prankster begins placing frogs on the breakfast trays, Louise delights in the break from routine—as does King Victor.

At last he has a purpose—but the palace may be in greater danger than either he or Louise suspects.

Book excerpt: In Light Shining in a Dark Place, Jeff Sellars has drawn together more than a dozen scholars around the theme of discovering theology through the moving medium of film. The varied contributors in this collection explore, through their particular lenses, how theological ideas might be seen in and considered through one of the most popular of modern art forms. From subjects of sin, grace, and forgiveness to violence, science fiction/fantasy, and zombies, Light Shining in a Dark Place assists the theologically interested film viewer in tracing the light that might be found in the filmic arts back to the source of all lights. Contributors: Bruce L. Edwards, J. Sage Elwell, Michael Leary, Peter Malone, Kevin C. Neece, Simon Oliver, Kim Paffenroth, J. Ryan Parker, Travis Prinzi, Megan J. Robinson, Scott Shiffer, James H.

Book excerpt: This book examines the dominant popular culture convention of the superhero, situated within the most significant global event of the last 20 years. Exploring the explosion of the superhero genre post-9/11, it sheds fresh light on the manner in which American society has processed and continues to process the trauma from the terrorist attacks. Beginning with the development of Batman in comics, television, and film, the authors offer studies of popular films including Iron Man, Captain America, The X-Men, Black Panther, and Wonder Woman, revealing the ways in which these texts meditate upon the events and aftermath of 9/11 and challenge the dominant hyper-patriotic narrative that emerged in response to the attacks. A study of the superhero genre’s capacity to unpack complex global interplays that question America’s foreign policy actions and the white, militarized masculinity that has characterized major discourses following 9/11, this volume explores the engagement of superhero films with issues of authority, patriotism, war, morals, race, gender, surveillance, the military industrial complex, and American political and social identities. As such, it will appeal to scholars and students of cultural and media studies, film studies, sociology, politics, and American studies.

Book excerpt: After graduating from Princeton, Donovan Campbell wanted to give back to his country, engage in the world, and learn to lead. So he joined the service, becoming a commander of a forty-man infantry platoon called Joker One. Campbell had just months to train and transform a ragtag group of brand-new Marines into a first-rate cohesive fighting unit, men who would become his family. They were assigned to Ramadi, the capital of the Sunni-dominated Anbar province that was an explosion just waiting to happen. And when it did happen—with the chilling cries of "Jihad, Jihad, Jihad!" echoing from minaret to minaret—Campbell and company were there to protect the innocent, battle the insurgents, and pick up the pieces. Thrillingly told by the man who led the unit of hard-pressed Marines, Joker One is a gripping tale of a leadership and loyalty.

Naive to a fault, they were high school seniors who were trying to figure out what to do with life. Then it all ended and what was fantasy became real. Together, they drew on their knowledge from their video games, movies, TV shows, and books and prepared for survival. Warriors emerged from teenagers. Every step was planned out and together they shaped their violence into an unstoppable team, beginning to reclaim what was lost. They began a life together, not the one they wanted, but the one they were dealt, and they swore to stay ahead of the doom enfulging their world, but at what cost? More than anything she wants to find a place, a way, to live again. To live again. To find a life worth living. Captain K. Hutchison, Genuine Apocalypse Aficionado Many of us who spend time thinking about the real possibility of societal breakdown are always on the lookout for insightful answers to the big questions. What will happen? What skills can I draw on to get me through when others cannot? Eppeldauer's story has the answer! This insighful, inventive, and introspective first book of a trilogy on the struggle against the odds of survival is well within the realms of reality and imagination. Tense, riveting, and a new interesting take on post-apocalyptic dynamics.
