But the Deep Magic is chained no more, and war again threatens a royal house. Theatana -- the insaneregal sister exiled for her treachery -- has escaped her prison, discovering within herself seeds of the blackest power which will help her ascend the throne she believes rightfully hers. And now she prepares to launch a merciless assault upon her own homeland...and her blood kin. But there is one determined to thwart her: Ilarion, the true heir, who will pursue his mad aunt to the very point where the world itself stands on the brink of catastrophe. It is here where a tumultuous contest must be waged -- and a devastating power will be revealed.

Book excerpt: Old Norse literature abounds with descriptions of magic acts that allow ritual specialists of various kinds to manipulate the world around them, see into the future or the distant past, change weather conditions, influence the outcomes of battles, and more. While magic practitioners are known under myriad terms, the most iconic of them is the völva. As the central figure of the famous mythological poem Völuspá (The Prophecy of the Völva), the völva commands both respect and fear. In non-mythological texts similar women are portrayed as crucial albeit somewhat peculiar members of society. Always veiled in mystery, the völur and their kind have captured the academic and popular imagination for centuries. Bringing together scholars from various disciplinary backgrounds, this volume aims to provide new insights into the reality of magic and its agents in the Viking world, beyond the pages of medieval texts. It explores new trajectories for the study of past mentalities, beliefs, and rituals as well as the tools employed in these practices and the individuals who wielded them. In doing so, the volume engages with several topical issues of Viking Age research, including the complex entanglements of mind and materiality, the cultural attitudes to animals and the natural world, and the cultural constructions of gender and sexuality. By addressing these complex themes, it offers a nuanced image of the völva and related magic workers in their cultural context. The volume is intended for a broad, diverse, and international audience, including experts in the field of Viking and Old Norse studies but also various non-professional history enthusiasts. The Norse Sorceress: Mind and Materiality in the Viking World is a key output of the project Tanken bag Tingene (Thoughts behind Things) conducted at the National Museum of Denmark from 2020 to 2023 and funded by the Krogager Foundation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been over twenty years since the full manuscript of my book was edited for publication in 1998. I had begun writing it in the previous decade, the 1980’s... a period of flourishing women’s liberation movements against the patriarchal status quo. Books about women’s sexuality and spirituality were flooding the bookstores, and many writers were producing profound studies of the untold heroism of women throughout history. I was a pioneer in the burgeoning field of Sex therapy and education at the University of Minnesota Medical School’s “Program in Human Sexuality.” In addition, I conducted women’s self-enrichment groups and workshops in my private practice... “Woman’s Discovery Institute” ... where I also gave professional Astrology readings and classes. This rich mix of psychology, philosophy, spirituality, and a knowledge of the cyclic patterns of life shown by astrology created within me an avid interest in researching women’s unsung heroism throughout history. It brewed in me a heady fascination to stitch it all together in a circle montage that connects all women and all aspects of our multi-layered lives. I based my theory on the lunar cycle, which is eternally linked to women’s menstrual, emotional, and psychic cycles. With a friend, I created a series of workshops for women to celebrate their many-faceted selves and gain confidence to pursue their goals. Yet for various reasons my book manuscript remained in my own bookshelf, never getting published. Until now... the times again call for women to claim their autonomy and gain equality in an overly male-dominated and viciously callous world. I am blessed to find in Xlibris a publisher ready to take on the project with me. I am thrilled to finally see my “Life’s Masterwork” in print. You will find many divergent ideas in these two volumes. No single woman encompasses all that are described, but as you read and recognize these characters in yourselves and your friends, I hope it will help you gain a full appreciation of your own awesome erotic spirit and sacred sexual powers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dennis Jones is a brilliant new voice in fantasy fiction. The Stone and the Maiden, his first foray into the genre, has been enthusiastically received in Canada and the US, and readers of this first book in The House of the Pandragore trilogy can't wait for the next instalment. It's easy to see why: The Stone and the Maiden is a spellbinding tale of peril, passion, sorcery and high adventure. There is the legend of the Signata, a mysterious sacred treasure that appears as suddenly as it vanishes, yet it is the only hope in the lands of the Ascendancy, a world menaced by an ancient and merciless evil. That evil is the force known as Deep Magic, a power long ago banished from the world, but brought back by Erkai the Chain, a master of the dreaded Black Craft. It is up to Mandine Dascaris, heiress to the throne of the Ascendancy, and to the young soldier Key Mec Brander, to find the Signata. To fail means the annihilation of their world. To succeed may mean the loss of their own lives. An unforgettable tale of high adventure, The Stone and the Maiden is ultimately the thrilling story of two lovers who, haunted by their passion and their joint fate, must overcome seemingly insurmountable odds. Epic fantasy at its most richly imagined best, it is a wonderfully entertaining read.

Book excerpt: Ah, yes, those innocent years. As swords clash, and a rainbow of blood from creatures, innocent and guilty, paints the ground, I see myself, fighting others, and fighting the demon in front of me. And soon, I am knocked to the ground, staring into that face of a crone I once thought was beautiful. The witchin actions, not in birth, powers, et ceteraolder than I once apprehended, said something, probably something satirical on my behalf, and laid her sword on one side of my neck. I awaited the meeting of my Maker, if that was the afterlife for a soul so damaged as mine. I closed my eyes, hearing that hag cackle to herself, and I reminisced on my whole life in a matter of seconds. Angels, Demons, Mermaids, Werewolves, Genies, Dragons, Vampyres, Faeries, Harpies, Wizards, Witches, and Wraiths, all in one novel? (I know, right?) Add a seventeen-year-olds coming of age and you have one jam-packed, war-filled story. Lee wakes up years later after a weird transformation and voices in his head trying to guide him. He finds that humanity is a state of mind in the demon-created world he now is a part of and his family and friends are not what they seemed. This is not your normal high school fantasy tale in Amortalis

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Described by theater critics as one of the twentieth century’s greatest talents, Benjamin Zuskin (1899–1952) was a star of the Moscow State Jewish Theater. In writing The Travels of Benjamin Zuskin, his daughter, Ala Zuskin Perelman, has rescued from oblivion his story and that of the theater in which he served as performer and, for a period, artistic director. Against the backdrop of the Soviet regime’s effort to stifle any expression of Jewish identity, the Moscow State Jewish Theater—throughout its thirty years of existence (1919–49)—maintained a high level of artistic excellence while also becoming a center of Jewish life and culture. A member of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee, Zuskin was arrested under fabricated charges and eventually executed on August 12, 1952, along with twelve other eminent Soviet Jews and committee members. Zuskin Perelman’s fascinating chronicle, more than just a personal memoir, conveys the vibrancy and energy of Jewish theater, celebrates the cultural achievements of Soviet Jews, and calls attention to the tragic fate that awaited them. The Travels of Benjamin Zuskin sheds light on Soviet Jewish history through the lens of one of the period’s most influential cultural icons.

Book excerpt: Elena, a professional Flamenco dancer, is taken by her husband to his ancestral home, for the first time, because the doctor has ordered her to stop traveling with their dance troupe and go to a spot where she can rest during what might be a difficult pregnancy. Thus, LOVE, THE SORCERER takes place on a remote estate in California, Casa Del Coyote. There, a wealthy Spanish-American family, the Savallas, are apparently plagued by a curse that no-one wishes to talk about or even acknowledge. Soon, Elena is beset by questions: Why does the patrón, Uncle Ramón, seem to be such a tortured man? Why does Ramón's right-hand man, the handsome and charming Miguel, seem to have some hidden qualities about him? And exactly what is the power that emanates from Miguel's mother, Sophia, the housekeeper? Elena misses her husband almost desperately, but their irrepressible love is able to break through barriers of time and space with amazing effectiveness. The plot thickens as we approach the moment of evil intent realized.
