Griff, the Briton, a heartless profiteer. Both are driven by a lust for gold.Their business is slaves; in particular, slave children who command a high price in Hibernia.But Ranulf has raided too deeply into the west; has taken children precious beyond mere gold. Worse still, he has taken from Arthur's people, and Arthur does not tolerate thieves.Arthur turns to the one man in Britannia with the guile to follow the intricate slave trail—he turns to Dominic, and so sets him upon his incredible journey through the dark, unforgiving lands of Britannia and Hibernia.Badon HillThe Saxons have conquered South East Britannia, but the lands further west have always eluded them. Repeatedly,they attempt to break Arthur’s dominance of the West Country, but to no avail. Arthur and his stronghold of Brythonfort are a breakwater upon which the Saxon threat always falters. But now circumstances have changed; now they have forged an alliance with a rogue British tribe and the ruthless Guertepir; now they can attack in great numbers and draw Arthur from his bastion. Their immediate goal is the restored spa town of Aquae Sulis. Above the town, the high ground of Badon Hill awaits.

The book of Ruth is a tale of charm and delight. Goethe called it "the loveliest complete work on a small scale, handed down to us as an ethical treatise and an idyll." Another writes, "No poet in the world has written a more beautiful short story."The book tells about very ordinary people facing very ordinary events. We meet Naomi, who underwent hardship in famine and bereavement but eventually won peace and security. We meet Ruth, a young foreign woman from Moab who attached herself to her mother-in-law, Naomi, and to Naomi's God. And we meet Boaz, who by marrying Ruth fitted into God's purpose's for history. Both King David and Jesus are numbered among their descendants.Theologically the story of Ruth is a story about God's providence. This David Atkinson demonstrates clearly in his passage-by-passage exposition.

She’d dreamt of him.Esther had been dreaming the same dream for weeks. Visions and emotions filled her mind at night that strangely felt real. After the loss of her parents, she’d been raised by her aunt. The dreams began the day her elderly aunt also died—leaving Esther seventeen and very much alone. Esther told herself she was used to being alone—that she liked it even. Which is maybe why moving in with her uncle and his family, who are practically strangers, feels scarier than the reoccurring dream, or the thought of ending up alone. Soon, she’ll be ten hours from the only home she remembers, and the one person she has left in the world—her best friend. Finn doesn’t care about any of that.He’s got bigger problems. Being sick and angry never gave him much time to think about anyone else. How could it? He’s dealing with smothering parents who are clearly in denial about his life and a body that’s trying to give out on him. Why can’t everyone just accept what is and let him live the way he wants to? When Esther and Finn’s worlds collide, fact and fiction begin to blur. Signs of Esther’s dreams are all around them. For the first time in a long time, Esther doesn’t feel like loneliness is her only future, and Finn starts to believe he may have more than video games and just another hang-out night with his friends to live for. Will Esther’s dreams lead them to their saving grace, or will it just be another heartbreak?
