Clio's Bastards by Curtis R. McManus Pdf

Clio’s Bastards uses an examination of the discipline of history in Canadian universities as the point of entry for a much larger exploration of the intellectual, spiritual, and moral crisis confronting Western civilization today. Over the past four decades, academic history was slowly perverted as historians adopted new sociological approaches to the study of the past. Historians altered the content, purpose, and goals of the discipline as they sought not Truth but Justice as part of a larger ideological program of radical social change. And today, the pervasive sociological way of seeing, understanding, and explaining our world has become the “new common sense” right across the Western world, both inside and outside the academy. Sociological thought, however, is neither “new” nor “advanced” nor is it “progressive” as its adherents claim: it is simply recrudescent Sophistry and Cynicism, destructive philosophies which ruined and fouled ancient Athens, the source and inspiration for Western civilization.

Clio by Martha Fowke Sansom Pdf

Written in 1723, when she was in her mid-thirties, but not published until 1752, Clio offers an engaging and illuminating account of an independent woman writer who is remarkably frank about her attitudes to love and marriage. Although the work can be read simply and enjoyably for its own sake, this annotated edition provides a wealth of material that puts this fascinating text in its social and literary context.

A Feather of Stone #3 by Cate Tiernan Pdf

After seventeen-year-old Thais Allard loses her widowed father in a tragic car accident, she is forced to leave the only home she’s ever known to live with a total stranger in New Orleans. New Orleans greets Thais with many secrets and mysteries, but none as unbelievable as the moment she comes face to face with the impossible—an identical twin, Clio. Thais soon learns that she and the twin she never knew come from a family of witches, that she possesses astonishing powers, and that she, along with Clio, has a key role in Balefire, the coven she was born into. Fiery Clio is less than thrilled to have to share the spotlight, but the twins must learn to combine their powers in order to complete a rite that will transform their lives and the coven forever.

Decker's War: Book 1-3 by Eric Thomson Pdf

The dream of a stable, democratic human Commonwealth has been dying for years. Politicians, financiers, and spies vie for supremacy, power, and wealth in pursuit of a nightmarish vision that can have only one outcome, the creation of a repressive interstellar empire. All that stands between them and their goal is a small band of determined Fleet operatives working in the shadows. Drawn into the struggle against his will, former Marine Pathfinder Zack Decker soon realizes he must choose sides and join those fighting off the growing darkness, but at great personal cost. However, try as they might, the double-crossing humans, deadly aliens, cruel pirates, and merciless slavers he must battle cannot keep Decker from extracting his revenge, especially after his beloved Corps recalls him to active duty as a Marine. He takes no prisoners and pulls no punches because his growing list of enemies has forced him to accept that this is also Decker's War. And it is a fight to the death. Unfortunately for his foes, they always seem to forget that he is still one of the Few... This omnibus edition includes the first three Decker's War novels which have been published separately. They are Death Comes But Once (Decker's War Book 1) Cold Comfort (Decker's War Book 2) Fatal Blade (Decker's War Book 3)

The German Historical Novel in Exile After 1933 by Bruce M. Broerman,Raphael Sealey Pdf

Historical fiction, from the epic tales of the ancients to Gone With the Wind and Roots, "demonstrates an inherent need in man to come to terms with his heritage in literary form." When the writers and readers are exiles, their need becomes especially poignant. The dual historical-artistic nature of the historical novel legitimates its claim to be a distinct genre. Two of the post-1933 exiled German novelists, Lion Feuchtwanger and Alfred Döblin, saw the historical novel's function as "to collect, preserve, and transmit the reality, not the mere facts, of great historical events and personages." The analysis of a cross-section of the work of these two and eight other leading German novelists in exile--Thomas and Heinrich Mann, Hermann Broch, Wolfgang Cordan, Bruno Frank, Robert Neumann, Edgar Maass, and Joseph Roth--confirms the view of Döblin and Feuchtwanger and reveals that "an indebtedness to Neo-Romanticism and a basic humanist attitude are common to all the authors." Although 1933 marks the largest migration of writers into exile known to modern history, their experience and their subsequent novels share attributes with the fictional expressions of exiled writers from places as varied as Argentina, Poland, South Africa, and the Soviet Union.

How Not To Murder Your Ex by Katie Marsh Pdf

It is 5:30 am on Clio's forty-fifth birthday and her hated ex is lying dead on her doorstep. Even worse, this is no accident. Someone’s killed him... When single mum Clio’s ex Gary turns up dead on the doorstep of her caravan – the one she’s been forced to live in ever since he stole every penny she had – there’s only one suspect. Her. What’s more, she doesn’t remember much about the night he was killed – not just because of the forgetfulness that’s been plaguing her along with the hot flushes – but because she definitely had one too many cocktails with her two best friends Amber and Jeanie. Clio does remember them talking about how much they all hated him though. And, in the frame for murder, she has to ask herself – if she didn’t kill Gary, who did? One of his many enemies? Or someone a little closer to home? And can she and her friends find the real killer before it’s too late? Unputdownable mystery set on the English coast – perfect for fans of The Thursday Murder Club, Bad Sisters, and How to Kill Your Family. Readers love How Not to Murder Your Ex: ‘For lovers of the Thursday Murder Club, this is an equally compelling read, friends united together to solve a murder for which one of them is in the frame.’ NetGalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Devoured this in 24 hours!’ NetGalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘So gripping and so dark. Had to stay up very late to finish it – I inhaled it! I can’t wait for this to come out and for y’all to lose your minds. If you had doubts about preordering, don’t.

Can’t wait for more!’ Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Mystery and intrigue. This talented author has written a cannot put down whodunit.’ NetGalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘I loved this book! A mom who strikes back and holds her own is an inspiration in itself. Relatable as a mom at times and totally loved the plot! Great read!!’ NetGalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Clever and twisty, I loved how each of the main characters used their strengths to get closer to the killer, and it’s laugh out loud funny. I thought I’d worked out whodunnit and then was proved sort-of right and also wrong. The ending is a great mix of drama and hilarity, and I’m already looking forward to the next one – to spending more time with Clio, Jeanie and Amber.’ NetGalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
