Synopsis

In "A Christmas Greeting," Marie Corelli invites readers into a poignant exploration of the themes of love, hope, and redemption, all set against the backdrop of the festive season. With her trademark lyrical style, Corelli weaves together a narrative that is both heartfelt and reflective, drawing upon the Victorian ideals of morality and spirituality. The text serves as a seasonal meditation on the importance of kindness and connection, employing rich imagery and emotive language that transcends mere sentimentality, instead offering a profound commentary on the human condition. Marie Corelli, a prolific and popular author of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, was known for her captivating storytelling and exploration of spiritual topics. A contemporary of literary giants like Oscar Wilde and George Meredith, Corelli's work often grappled with the societal norms of her time. Her own varied life experiences, including a passion for art, music, and the mystical, deeply influenced her writing, making her insights on faith and human connection particularly resonant in this festive narrative. This enchanting read is highly recommended for those seeking both inspiration and introspection during the holiday season. Corelli's eloquent prose and deep philosophical undercurrents not only entertain but also encourage readers to reflect on their own lives and relationships, making "A Christmas Greeting" a perfect companion for the contemplative heart.

    H.P. Lovecraft, also known as Howard Phillips Lovecraft, was an American writer who excelled in horror, fantasy, poetry, and science fiction, particularly in the subgenre of weird fiction. He is widely considered as the leading authority on frightening, eerie, and unsettling stories. This list features seven tales by Lovecraft, showcasing his writing prowess across his entire career - from works written when he was a young teenager to others that were only published posthumously. These stories are unique in their own way, but all stem from the same imaginative mind that gave us the "Cult of Cthulhu" and other memorable, strange works that have captivated generations with their ability to tap into our innermost fears. Some of these tales delve into the depths of the human psyche, while others delve into the depths of human depravity and terror.

    The bestselling success book of all time—now revised and updated for the 21st century.Think and Grow Rich has been called the "Granddaddy of All Motivational Literature." It was the first book to boldly ask, "What makes a winner?" The man who asked and listened for the answer, Napoleon Hill, is now counted in the top ranks of the world's winners himself. The most famous of all teachers of success spent "a fortune and the better part of a lifetime of effort" to produce the "Law of Success" philosophy that forms the basis of his books and that is so powerfully summarized in this one.In the original Think and Grow Rich, published in 1937, Hill draws on stories of Andrew Carnegie, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and other millionaires of his generation to illustrate his principles. In the updated version, Arthur R. Pell, Ph.D., a nationally known author, lecturer, and consultant in human resources management and an expert in applying Hill's thought, deftly interweaves anecdotes of how contemporary millionaires and billionaires, such as Bill Gates, Mary Kay Ash, Dave Thomas, and Sir John Templeton, achieved their wealth. Outmoded or arcane terminology and examples are faithfully refreshed to preclude any stumbling blocks to a new generation of readers.Provides valuable insights into navigating dynamic and unpredictable environments in various domainsDelves into the qualities of successful leadersOffers practical advice on how to gain advantages and outmanoeuvre opponents

Upon reaching the peak, Barzai at first seems overjoyed until he finds that the "gods of the earth" are not there alone, but rather are overseen by the "other gods, the gods of the outer hells that guard the feeble gods of earth!"
