When eighteen-year old half-demon Alexandra Gold uses her firebird spirit to save the soul of a murdered girl, it brings her to the attention of the most powerful beings in her parallel universe.
At first, she believes this is a blessing. When she discovers that she has been the unwitting pawn of an ancient vengeance that intends to destroy every living human and demon in both universes, she realizes that she's been cursed.
This ancient vengeance has the power to re-animate the dead and use them to murder the living-and for each of the thirty-six most righteous human beings it murders, the more powerful it becomes.
Alex is determined to protect the thirty-six and save both worlds, but she cannot defeat Vengeance alone. All she has is her demon blade, her spirit fire, and her wits-to prevail, she must convince those humans and demons who are terrified and blame her for this catastrophe to help her.

Описание: Excerpt from Popular History of the War The Belgians had not only been subjected to fire and sword, as in the ancient days Of savagery, but they were in danger Of starvation from the stoppage of industry and absorption Of food supplies by the invaders. Measures Of relief, largely financed at first by Great Britain and later by the United States, were organized under the direction Of an American engineer, Herbert C. Hoover. For the next four years the people Of Belgium and Northern France lived mainly on supplies distributed first under American and later under Spanish direction, suffering indescribable horrors to the very last. Their wrecked cities were still in the condition to which the Germans had reduced them in 1914, or worse, when the country was recovered in 1918.

The story of a monk, a minstrel, and the music that brought them together
In 1965 writer-activist-monk Thomas Merton fulfilled a twenty-four-year dream and went to live as a hermit beyond the walls of his Trappist monastery. Seven months later, after a secret romance with a woman half his age, he was in danger of losing it all. Yet on the very day that his abbot uncovered the affair, Merton found solace in an unlikely place--the songs of Bob Dylan, who, as fate would have it, was experiencing his own personal and creative crises during the summer of 1966.
In this striking parallel biography of two countercultural icons, Robert Hudson plumbs the depths of Dylan's surprising influence on Merton's life and writing, recounts each man's interactions with the woman who linked them together--Joan Baez--and shows how each transcended his immediate troubles and went on to new heights of spiritual and artistic genius. Readers will discover here a riveting story of creativity and crisis, burnout and redemption, in the tumultuous era of 1960s America.
