Rise of the Fifth Order Bundle by Autumn M. Birt Pdf

Would you protect a girl whose forbidden abilities condemn her to death? Welcome to the world of Myrrah, ruled by the Church of Four Orders - Fire, Earth, Water, and Air. But there exists another gift, dubbed magic, which is considered an aberration by the Church. To be born with the powers of magic is to be condemned to death. To be born with the ability to control an element is to be born to a life serving the Church... and obeying its rules. One Priestess will stand against the Church to protect sixteen year old Ria, beginning an epic fantasy adventure that leads four unlikely friends across the breadth of their world to seek answers hidden in the buried archives of the Temple of Dust. Secrets from an ancient war and discoveries of hidden power lead to a fight for survival that threaten to tear apart their world. What is magic and why does the Church want those who harbor its power exterminated? This ebook bundle includes 4 books: Born of Water, Rule of Fire, Spirit of Life, and the series Companion!

Jerusalem by Alan Moore Pdf

The New York Times bestseller from the author of Watchmen and V for Vendetta finally appears in a one-volume paperback. Begging comparisons to Tolstoy and Joyce, this “magnificent, sprawling cosmic epic” (Guardian) by Alan Moore—the genre-defying, “groundbreaking, hairy genius of our generation” (NPR)—takes its place among the most notable works of contemporary English literature. In decaying Northampton, eternity loiters between housing projects. Among saints, kings, prostitutes, and derelicts, a timeline unravels: second-century fiends wait in urine-scented stairwells, delinquent specters undermine a century with tunnels, and in upstairs parlors, laborers with golden blood reduce fate to a snooker tournament. Through the labyrinthine streets and pages of Jerusalem tread ghosts singing hymns of wealth and poverty. They celebrate the English language, challenge mortality post-Einstein, and insist upon their slum as Blake’s eternal holy city in “Moore’s apotheosis, a fourth-dimensional symphony” (Entertainment Weekly). This “brilliant . . . monumentally ambitious” tale from the gutter is “a massive literary achievement for our time—and maybe for all times simultaneously” (Washington Post).

As Our Broken Selves by C. Ross Adams Pdf

The town is divided when an unspeakable act takes place involving a coach and one of the players on his Little League team, the Broken Bats. Team members and their families answer the accusations with deliberate actions that have equally forceful consequences. Reason is given through conversation as the path forward is sometimes blurred with emotion. Like in baseball, each side will have their turn at bat. A home run will be hit, but errors and choreographed outs will also be made, until the winner is decided not by those on the playing field, rather by the reader. This story is riveting with events that propel you into the lives and emotions of a young baseball team and their parents. Gripping events and deceit lay a framework for a captivating adventure, with a group of boys being thrown into an adult world. As Our Broken Selves is an ambitious attempt at understanding and gaining perspective on a subject discussed rarely in comparison to its occurrence.
