They hope to find answers, perhaps even the dragons of legend, whose magic might be the key to restoring Kyona’s ancient bloodline.But the mountains hold more than just magic—they hold a secret that none of the friends are prepared for. And Calinnae’s response, as much as Jonan’s, will decide whether the kingdom stands or falls.If you enjoy adventure, fantasy, mystery, and clean romance, discover the world of the Kyona Chronicles today. Heir of the Curse is the first of six installments in the series.
  • Story of a Soul: The Autobiography of St. Therese of Lisieux

    St. Therese of Lisieux, John Clarke OCD

    eBook (ICS Publications, Sept. 20, 2013)
    The Authorized English Translation of Therese's Original Unaltered Manuscripts. Translated from the critical edition by John Clarke, OCD, 3rd ed. (1997). Includes Bibliography, Index, and 11 photos. Two and a half years before her death in 1897 at the age of 24, as ThÊrèse Martin began writing down her childhood memories at the request of her blood sisters in the Lisieux Carmel, few could have guessed the eventual outcome. Yet this "story of my soul," first published in 1898 in a highly edited version, quickly became a modern spiritual classic, read by millions and translated into dozens of languages around the world.Decades later, in response to growing requests from scholars and devotees of the Saint, a facsimile edition of the manuscripts appeared, along with more popular French editions of what the Saint had actually written. Here, expressed with all of ThÊrèse's original spontaneity and fervor, we rediscover the great themes of her spirituality: confidence and love, the "little way," abandonment to God's merciful love, and her "mission" in the church and world today.Father John Clarke's acclaimed translation, first published in 1975 and now accepted as the standard throughout the English-speaking world, is a faithful and unaffected rendering of ThÊrèse's own words, from the original manuscripts. This new edition, prepared for the centenary of the Saint's death, includes a select bibliography of recent works in English on ThÊrèse, along with a new referencing system now widely used in studies of her doctrine.WHAT THEY'RE SAYING..."Succeeds admirably in catching the tone and feel of the original text."- Noel-Dermot O'DonoghueReligious Life Review"A fresh, first rate translation from the original manuscripts."- John DonohueAmerica

  • Why Battered Women Stay: It Could Happen to Anyone

    Dr. Ola W. Barnett, Ms. Alyce D. LaViolette

    Paperback (SAGE Publications, Inc, April 17, 2013)
    The widely read and highly praised bestseller It Could Happen to Anyone offers a unique amalgamation of the practical clinical experience of Alyce LaViolette and the extensive research of Ola Barnett on battered women and their batterers. Fully updated and revised, this Third Edition includes a wealth of new material and case examples, while retained sections have been carefully rewritten to reflect contemporary thinking. This important text continues to provide understanding and empathy regarding the plight of battered women as they attempt to find safety. The integration of current knowledge with learning theory explains how any woman's previous life experiences along with the effects of battering might influence her to stay with her abuser. The book's content also explains how some social institutions, such as the criminal justice system, cannot be counted upon to protect her, thus making it dangerous for her to leave or stay. In extreme cases, she may even be killed. From a more optimistic viewpoint, the book describes many innovations geared to assist battered women through shelters, transitional housing, and temporary income support. This extensively revised and expanded new edition is a must read for anyone working in or training to work in a helping role for issues in domestic violence.
