And apparently, that makes me everyone’s favorite supernatural pawn. The archangels want me dead, the demons want me to pick a side, and then there’s Eric, the Prince of Hell, who insists I belong to him. Oh, and did I mention I got kidnapped? Because I totally got kidnapped. By Michael—yes, that Michael—who thinks I’m the key to bringing down Lucifer. But he forgot one little thing…I don’t play nice. Now, I’m heading straight to Hell—literally—with a stolen blade, some unpredictable powers, and a serious grudge.

Encounter with the Devil - Maya Daniels

There’s no sin in cheating the Devil. Unless, of course, you get caught. I barely escaped with my life, but now I’m stuck in a game where angels lie, demons manipulate, and I’m the prize everyone wants to claim. Turns out, being a hybrid—a mix of angel and demon—makes me valuable. And dangerous. My only shot at survival? The one place I swore I’d never go: Hell. To keep me safe, Eric—Prince of Hell, infuriatingly overprotective, and apparently my mate—is willing to break his biggest promise and face Lucifer himself. But Hell isn’t just fire and brimstone. It’s deception, betrayal, and power plays. And down here, even the Prince of Hell isn’t untouchable. Masks are slipping, alliances are shifting, and I’m running out of time. Because if I don’t figure out who to trust before the walls close in, I won’t just lose my life—I’ll lose my soul. Let the battle begin. Encounter with the Devil is a fast-paced, snark-filled urban fantasy packed with high-stakes action, a fierce heroine who refuses to back down, and a dangerously tempting Prince of Hell.

Better The Devil You Know - Maya Daniels

They say when in Hell, only the Devil can point the way out. Lucky me—I’ve got two of them fighting over me. I died. (Rude, right?) But now the question isn’t how to bring me back—it’s whether they should. Raphael, the ever-holy Archangel, is ready to throw away his wings to defy Heaven itself, while Eric, my Prince of Hell, would burn down the realms just to get me back. But the thing is…What if I don’t come back right? The veil between life and death isn’t meant to be crossed, and if they do this, there’s no telling what I’ll become. The world is already teetering on the edge—souls are vanishing, monsters are crawling out of the dark, and the jinn are playing their own twisted game. And if I return? I might be the biggest threat of all. Is one life worth the cost of all creation?Better the Devil You Know is a dark, high-stakes urban fantasy filled with impossible choices, dangerous magic, and a heroine who refuses to go down without a fight.

The Devil is in the Details - Maya Daniels

Nothing spices up a Tuesday night like a good old-fashioned demon hunt. Unless, of course, you accidentally open a portal to Hell. Oops. I used to believe in black and white, good versus evil, angels versus demons. Then I learned the hard way that Heaven has secrets, Hell has its own rules, and I’m stuck in the middle of it all. Now I’ve got celestial bounty hunters on my ass, demons whispering sweet nothings (and death threats), and one particularly infuriating demon—who’s way too handsome for my sanity—claiming we’re “destined.” Yeah, sure, buddy. That’s what they all say. One wrong move, and I’ll be Heaven’s traitor or Hell’s newest recruit. Either way? I’m screwed.

The Devil in Disguise - Maya Daniels

They say evil has many faces. Unfortunately for me, one of them looks exactly like mine. Surviving Hell was just the beginning. Now, I’m back on Earth, and things are not looking great—my city is burning, my so-called allies are turning on me, and my arch-nemesis is still breathing when he really, really shouldn’t be. Oh, and did I mention I’m apparently Satan’s daughter? Yeah. That one’s new. With Eric still locked in a healing sleep, it’s up to me to stop an Archdemon with a god complex before he brings both Heaven and Hell to their knees. But between shape-shifting jinn, long-lost secrets, and an Order that’s been lying to me from day one, I don’t know whom to trust. All I know is this: I’m done being a pawn. The war is coming, and whether Heaven or Hell likes it or not—I’m playing by my own damn rules now. The Devil in Disguise is a gripping, action-packed urban fantasy filled with supernatural warfare, jaw-dropping twists, and a heroine who refuses to be controlled.

The Holy and the Broken: A cry for Israeli-Palestinian peace from a land that must be shared - Ittay Flescher

When dehumanisation and destruction become the norm, the cycle must be broken. For over twenty years, Ittay Flescher has worked as an educator, journalist and peacebuilder in Melbourne and Jerusalem. When he woke up on the morning of October 7, 2023 to the sounds of rocket sirens over Jerusalem and later saw the devastation of Gaza in response, the grief and sadness that engulfed him - and so many others - compelled him to ask: how can we find a way forward?Following years spent facilitating dialogue between Jews, Muslims and Christians, Ittay believes that peace can only be found if we are willing to empathise with the pain of others.The Holy and the Broken challenges Palestinian and Israeli leaders, citizens and their supporters across the world to imagine a different reality; to look at history with a different eye; and to search for moments of engagement rather than resentment in the narratives of the past that each side tells about itself.Ultimately, it is a story that aims to comfort the troubled and trouble the comfortable.Praise:''Courageous and considered.

The Broken China Dream - Minxin Pei

A provocative book that demystifies China’s great democratic leap backward under Xi Jinping, revealing why the country’s embrace of capitalism has given rise to hard authoritarianism, mass surveillance, and one-man rule instead of democracy as many in the West had hopedWhen China embarked on its transformative journey of modernization in 1979, many believed the country’s turn toward capitalism would put its totalitarian past to rest and mark the birth of a democratic, open society. Instead, China reverted to a neo-totalitarian state, one backed by one of the fastest-growing, most formidable economies on earth. The Broken China Dream pulls back the curtain on the regime of strongman Xi Jinping, revealing why the reforms of the post-Mao era have been reversed on nearly every front—and why the world failed to see it coming. Exposing the truth behind China’s economic ascendency after the Cultural Revolution, Minxin Pei shows how, following Mao’s death in 1976, Deng Xiaoping strategically deployed the tools of capitalism to preserve the Chinese Communist Party. Deng kept intact the institutional foundations of totalitarianism even as he unleashed private entrepreneurship and courted foreign investment, giving China’s one-party state control of a vast repressive apparatus and the most critical sectors of the ...

The Gift of the Broken Teacup: Poems of Mindfulness, Meditation, and Me - Allan Wolf

Warm, witty poems by the acclaimed Allan Wolf bring mindfulness to the younger set—one simple, nurturing practice at a time. An om is a poem without any words. It acts as a voice so the heart can be heard.Have you ever let your thoughts just float into the sky? Why is today the very best day of the year? And what does a broken teacup have to do with anything? In fresh, accessible poems about mindfulness and related themes, award-winning poet Allan Wolf takes on subjects from kindness to confidence, from finding peace in nature to letting your own joyful “YAWP!” be heard (thank you, Walt Whitman). Woven throughout are subtle how-to’s on meditation, breathwork, visualization, yoga, journaling, and more, as well as taking in others’ points of view, letting go of anger, and other invaluable elements of social-emotional learning. “Accept the way you feel, and turn / your worry into wonder,” says the poet. This charming collection, animated by Jade Orlando’s bright illustrations, offers the tools and the inspiration to make that happen.
