In the beginning The Alpha created the heavens and the earth. This story takes place before that.Shamayim. A perfect place, filled with perfect beings, all living in perfect peace. It was as The Alpha had always imagined it to be in unfathomable ages past. But when Son of the Dawn, his highest created being, chose to follow his own selfish ambitions--going so far as to boast about taking The Alpha's throne--there was trouble.Michael and Gabriel, chief amongst The Alpha's seven archangels, had been close to Son of the Dawn to the extent of being inseparable. When he chose to rebel, attempting to persuade angels under Michael and Gabriel's direct command to join him, it felt like betrayal. But that didn't come close to the pain they felt when he took a third of the angelic host and left, for he wasn't just leaving Shamayim and The Alpha...he was leaving them. When he finally declared all-out war against the Realm, the betrayal was complete.Committed to honoring the freedom of choice He had embedded within each of His created beings, The Alpha watched sorrowfully as consequence followed consequence with Son of the Dawn growing ever more bold in his revolt. Believing that there was nothing The Alpha could create that he couldn't corrupt, his rebellious stain began to spread throughout The Alpha's creation. What had been meant for timeless tranquility had now dissolved into trouble...Trouble in Heaven.

Paul Morgan, who has now kidnapped Cassie and is threatening to kill her while forcing Jake to watch.

R. G. Collingwood: An Autobiography and other writings
Oxford University Press
2017
nidottu
This volume presents a many-faceted view of the Oxford philosopher R. G. Collingwood. At its centre is his Autobiography, published in 1939, which has the status of a cult classic for its compelling 'story of his thought'. Collingwood's work has enjoyed renewed attention in recent years, with new editions of his great philosophical works. This volume republishes the Autobiography alongside a previously unpublished account by Collingwood of a journey to the East Indies in 1938-1939. These writings are accompanied by eleven specially written essays. Several of these examine aspects of Collingwood's life--not just the Autobiography, but what he doesn't discuss in that work, from his childhood to his professorship at Oxford. And the essays also examine aspects of his work on philosophy, politics, history, and archaeology, in the context of his life.
