"So Savenius is more powerful than Amenek-Ra?" "Oh yes," said Billy flat. "As Justin said, he is the Prince of gods." "Prince of gods," repeated Christian. "Prince of the Universe." He turned to Kalif. "Which one is more powerful?" General Falcon woke up from his blank daze. "That brings us to the Destiny of the Mythaeon. For it is his task to fight and destroy Savenius." The two boys from Earth turned to Justin, who answered their unspoken question. "These words came into existence after Lord Celonce and Savenius had vanished. It was joined to the Promise of the Mythaeon, saying: There will be a boy one day, who will rule the Realm in the Savus as the Prince of the Universe." Philip and Christian turned at the same time to Kalif. He did not feel like smiling, but did it anyway. "Nice future, don't you think?" "Great," said Christian sarcastic. "Don't you have a say in what you want to do? Aren't you afarid?" asked Philip. Kalif wanted to laugh, but did not make it. "That is the wonderful thing about destiny. My feelings towards everything have hardly any meaning, but they are far beyond fear."

The Truth About the Mutiny on HMAV BOUNTY – and the Fate of Fletcher Christian brings this famed South Pacific saga into the 21st century. By combining unprecedented research into Fletcher Christian and his fate with deep knowledge of Bounty’s Polynesian women, Glynn Christian presents a fresh and comprehensive telling of a powerful maritime adventure that still captivates after 230 years. Of over 3000 books and major articles on the mutiny, or the five feature films starring such as Clark Gable, Charles Laughton, Marlon Brando and Mel Gibson, none has told the true story as until 1982, no author knew the real Fletcher Christian, or could understand his relationship with William Bligh, h...
The Kierkegaardian account of becoming a Christian has come to be perceived in radically egocentric terms. Torrance challenges this perception by demonstrating that Kierkegaard was devoted to the idea of Christian conversion as a transformative process of becoming. This process is grounded in an active relationship initiated by the eternal God who has established kinship with us in time. Torrance focuses on 'becoming a Christian' as a particular theological theme that deserves further attention - how 'becoming a Christian' or Christian transformation should be construed in relation to God's initiating and active relationship to the person. Torrance's account of Kierkegaard on human transform...
Doug Bixby knows that many of us have had enough of the liberal vs. conservative battles in the church. In The Honest to God Church, Bixby demonstrates how these extremes have distracted us from our true calling as conduits for God's grace--both individually and as congregations. Many churches see themselves as "okay," while everyone outside the church is "not okay." These churches embrace an ethic of perfection rather than love. Often they are very judgmental and rigid; little room exists for grace after a person is converted. Legalism, rather than love, becomes the primary defining characteristic; people pretend to be perfect even though they are not. In reaction to this approach, many chu...
This major volume aims to re-colour the European world of dress, c.1300-1800. New dyes created one of the most important visual experiences of the period, yet their story has been side-lined by a focus on visual experiences shaped by the high arts. Meanwhile, theatrical productions and period films still abound with broad assumptions about the growing dominance of black clothing for elites during the period, while ordinary people are imagined having worn coarse greys and bleached garments. This volume presents clear evidence that even the clothing of the middle classes could be much more expensive than paintings, and that coloured clothing and accessories were ubiquitous across society. Cont...
