When Hitler came to power in 1933 he promised the German people a technocratic state where science, technology and education would grow and flourish. Unfortunately, any attempts to achieve such a goal were dependent on his educational background which was fundamentally flawed and severely distorted. Hitler’s schooling was a troubled time where he struggled with many subjects. In particular he found conflicting views between science and religion so difficult to understand it caused him to “run his head against the wall”. He was also heavily educated in subjects like myths, magic, pseudo-sciences and the occult which would become his versions of alternative science and alternative facts. These alternatives remained with him into adulthood where, as Fuhrer, his mentality and mindset towards science was highlighted when he announced: "A new age of magic interpretation of the world is coming, of interpretation in terms of the will and not the intelligence."Hitler’s ideology and rise to power also came at an interesting time for physics which was hinting at that will not intelligence interpretation.

FROM THE ACCLAIMED AUTHOR OF THE LAST PEARL AND DANCING AT THE VICTORY CAFE, this is a beautiful novel about family secrets, betrayal and redemption.

Surrounded by wild moorland and the majestic Yorkshire peaks, time seems to stand still in this magical corner of the world. But change is on its way.

There, in Bjørgvin, lives another Asle, also a painter but lonely and consumed by alcohol.

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.
