  I had heard tales of women with secret knowledge and powers, but I never imagined that there would be one standing right in front of me.“You’re a Völva?” the word rolled off my tongue strangely...I only knew faintly what a Völva was. They were said to be strange women with strange powers. Not only could they protect and ward against ill omens, but they could also travel the realms and reach into places untapped by most humans. As such, they were often spoken of in whispers of both reverence and mystery.“Yes, I am. And an old one at that,” she said, getting up from her chair.It seemed so casual as if she was just talking about a mindless chore that she was doing. Like it was nothing special that she had just performed some form of magic right in front of me.For two years, I learned everything I could on runes, protections, herbs, medicines, and anything else that Dagmar deemed necessary. In the few moments I had that were not dedicated to lessons from Dagmar, I would seek out Ivar for his quiet presence. There was just something about being near him that set my mind at ease.All that consumed my thoughts was avengement and how close Ulrik was. Soon he would taste the bitter sting of defeat.In the realms of Norse Mythology, a girl sets out to avenge her village, only to meet a powerful teacher on her journey into the abyss of forbidden knowledge.

  Renowned public speaker, bestselling author, social critic, and activist Charles Eisenstein offers a way forward from our present moment through a series of unforgettable essays that give us a new model of sense-making. Through a series of piercing essays, The Coronation takes listeners through the initiation of the Covid era?exploring topics like despair, hope, courage, division, and reunion?in this stunning collection. Paired with each essay is the author’s commentary locating the essay in a social, political, and spiritual journey. After all, it wasn’t only outward normality that the pandemic disrupted. Of all the social crises that COVID-19 has revealed, The Coronation addresses the most profound: the crisis in our sense-making. An old reality has disintegrated. This book reveals just how deep that breakdown is. Acknowledging it, we might build something more sound, more whole, and more sane. Underneath the shifting sands of the arguments and narratives, something else calls to us: the possibility of renewal, a revolution in the agreements and myths that organize society. *Individually, these essays have been read, shared, and discussed by tens of thousands of people around the globe, but they are collected together here for the first time!

  Ned Franks, a one-armed Christian sailor, returns to his sister's home after several years away at sea.  She and her son are not Christians, and are cold toward him, viewing him as a hindrance and expense.  By his upright, kind behavior and willingness to work, he soon begins supporting himself and becomes well-liked in the community, especially by the children.  Various other characters face and overcome challenges, including a servant girl who breaks a habit of dishonesty and a Jew who is faced with the reality that Jesus Christ is the Messiah.  The design of this story is unique, as each chapter demonstrates a new fruit of the Spirit as described in Galatians 5:22-23.  Excellent for children and adults of all ages. - Summary by Alayna May
