In the process, she gets a deeper look at the harsh reality of an existence built from the ashes of a brutalized earth, and she's forced to realize that some things can only be ignored for so long.

A work of fiction...or is it?SUMMARY: When Laice regains consciousness in a dingy tent surrounded by a group of battle-weary men dressed in armor, she is horrified to see that her arm is missing. Then, only a moment later, her missing limb grows back from nothing. Confused and afraid, she realizes that her memory is gone and she has no idea where she is or how she got there.An unfamiliar man introduces himself as her best friend, Seph. He explains that she is a soldier fighting against their enemy, the king, who created the barren, sunless wasteland in which they live. He wants her to trust him, but she can't help feeling suspicious. Things become even more complicated for Laice when a mysterious man appears in her tent, a stranger named Eli. He doesn't seem dangerous, but Seph warns her that he is the king's son and plans to steal her away. Unsure of what to believe, Laice soon realizes that she has more questions than answers, especially when she discovers a strange pocketwatch in her dresser. Her name is engraved on the outside, and she can sense that there's more to it than meets the eye. Despite Seph's reassurances, she knows there is a terrible truth hidden in her lost memory. The truth, however, proves to be more heart-wrenching than anything she ever could have imagined._____________________________*Don't forget to leave a review * Contact the author on Facebook, and see how to enter to win a FREE autographed paperback copy of this book: @christinajthompson.cjt

SUMMARY: Lia Grey is a spirited sixteen-year-old, an opinionated, fiery girl who couldn't care the slightest about her town's ridiculous ideas of the proper conduct of a woman. Despite the gossip about her reputation, she is content and happy with her life, her only concern being her arranged betrothal to the town's young blacksmith, Mark Samuels. He adores her; she can't stand him. Then, on a dark, August night, she is attacked by a patron of the tavern where she works, and the person she thought she was is destroyed. Torn apart by the experience and her emotions running wild, she turns to the comfort of a stranger, a man who isn't what she thought him to be. Now, Lia must struggle through the trauma she has suffered and the consequences of the choices she has made to free herself from the shadows haunting her.

SCN2A encodes a voltage-gated sodium channel (designated NaV1.2) vital for generating neuronal action potentials. Pathogenic SCN2A variants are associated with a diverse array of neurodevelopmental disorders featuring neonatal or infantile onset epilepsy, developmental delay, autism, intellectual disability and movement disorders. SCN2A is a high confidence risk gene for autism spectrum disorder and a commonly discovered cause of neonatal onset epilepsy. This remarkable clinical heterogeneity is mirrored by extensive allelic heterogeneity and complex genotype-phenotype relationships partially explained by divergent functional consequences of pathogenic variants. Emerging therapeutic strategies targeted to specific patterns of NaV1.2 dysfunction offer hope to improving the lives of individuals affected by SCN2A-related disorders. This Element provides a review of the clinical features, genetic basis, pathophysiology, pharmacology and treatment of these genetic conditions authored by leading experts in the field and accompanied by perspectives shared by affected families. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

The guide is a refreshingly different account of the Christian story and is ideally suited to young adults. It covers the main Christian events succinctly and links them in a way that makes the story come alive. The scope of the guide is comprehensive. It begins with a review of pre-Christian beliefs and what the ordinary people at the time of Jesus knew and understood. It ends with a review of what Christians believe today and some of the issues that are likely to be discussed in the next millennium. An introduction to the orthodox Christian story is given together with some contemporary interpretations of key events in the life of Jesus Christ. The guide endeavours to put the reader in a better position to form and evaluate his or her own beliefs. In the modern world, true and enduring faith can only be found through a sound understanding of the Christian story. Events and happenings that led those in the early Church to believe Jesus Christ was divine and the steps the Apostles took to spread the Gospel far and wide are explained. The formation of the Roman Catholic Church and its development are investigated, together with the ways the Reformation changed the direction of the Christian story. The more recent impact of science and social changes is also considered. An overview of the Church today helps the reader to understand the current structure and practices within the Church. The guide explains how different Christian denominations were taken to all parts of the world at the end of the medieval period. Finally, issues such as the nature of God and his kingdom, gender, and wealth in the context of today's Christian world are introduced so that the reader may be in a better position to take part in contemporary debate.

Far from being solely an academic enterprise, the practice of theology can pique the interest of anyone who wonders about the meaning of life. Inviting readers on a journey of 'faith seeking understanding', this introduction to Christian theology - its basic concepts, confessional content, and history - emphasizes the relevance of the key convictions of Christian faith to the challenges of today's world. In the first part, this book introduces the project of Christian theology and sketches the critical context that confronts Christian thought and practice today. In a second part, it offers a survey of the key doctrinal themes of Christian theology - including revelation, the triune God, and the world as creation - identifying their biblical basis and the highlights of their historical development before giving a systematic evaluation of each theme. The third part provides an overview of Christian theology from the early church to the present.
