Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Young Cayleb Ahrmahk has accomplished things few people could even dream of. Not yet even thirty years old, he's won the most crushing naval victories in human history. He's smashed a hostile alliance of no less than five princedoms and won the hand of the beautiful young Queen Sharleyan of Chisholm. Cayleb and Sharleyan have created the Charisian Empire, the greatest naval power in the history of Safehold, and they've turned Charis into a place of refuge for all who treasure freedom.Their success may prove short-lived. The Church of God Awaiting, which controls most of Safehold, has decreed their destruction. Mother Church's entire purpose is to prevent the very things to which Charis is committed. Since the first attempt to crush the heretics failed, the Church has no choice but to adopt some of the hated Charisian innovations for themselves. Soon a mighty fleet will sail against Cayleb, destroying everything in its path.But there are still matters about which the Church knows nothing, including Cayleb and Sharleyan's adviser, friend, and guardian-the mystic warrior-monk named Merlin Athrawes. Merlin knows all about battles against impossible odds, because he is in fact the cybernetic avatar of a young woman named Nimue Alban, who died a thousand years before. As Nimue, Merlin saw the entire Terran Federation go down in fire and slaughter at the hands of a foe it could not defeat. He knows that Safehold is the last human planet in existence, and that the stasis the Church was created to enforce will be the human race's death sentence if it is allowed to stand.The juggernaut is rumbling down on Charis, but Merlin Athrawes and a handful of extraordinary human beings stand in its path. The Church is about to discover just how potent the power of human freedom truly is.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. God writes a lyric through our life. Through the means of praise and worship we can express our spiritual yearnings in ways that we would find difficult in everyday words or conversation.Yet lyrics to hymns and songs become dry on our tongues. What once seemed to express our joy with incandescence, now glows feebly - a token remembrance of our heart's desire. We move on to new songs, only for the pattern to repeat itself.The problem is not the song, the problem is OUR song.Using the verses from Luther's great hymn 'A Mighty Fortress is our God', written from his meditations on psalm 46, T M Moore helps us recapture our song, written by God's hand in our life. We can rekindle the flames of our spiritual lives and be set upon a firmer footing to face the future - bloodied, unbowed, undismayed.At trying times Luther would turn to his closest friend and say 'Come Philip, let us sing the 46th.' May your life be turned by singing in harmony with one who loves you closer than a brother.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. The Romans were using the word "German" as early as the mid-first century B.C.E. to describe tribes in the eastern Rhine valley. Two thousand years later, the richness and complexity of German history is often lost beneath the long shadow of the country's darkest hour in World War II. Steven Ozment examines the long history of Germany and its people, a civilization that has been both Western Europe's most successful and most dangerous. Ozment captures the soul of a nation that is at once ordered and chaotic, disciplined and obsessive and proud and uncertain. Epic in scope, A Mighty Fortress presents the history of the German people as the story of humanity writ large.Steven Ozment is McLean Professor of Ancient and Modern History at Harvard University and the author of The Burgermeister's Daughter, Flesh and Spirit, Ancestors, and The Age of Reform, a finalist for the National Book Award."A Mighty Fortress is a monumental work of synthesis portraying the whole course of German history. Ozment's book is very learned and up-to-date. It is fascinating, illuminating, and provocative." -- Norman F. Cantor, author of In the Wake of the Plague and The Civilization of the Middle Ages.…
