  Orthodoxy (Unabridged)

  G. K. Chesterton

  • 0
  • 0
  • 0

  This book is meant to be a companion to "Heretics," and to put the positive side in addition to the negative. Many critics complained of the book because it merely criticised current philosophies without offering any alternative philosophy. This book is an attempt to answer the challenge. It is the purpose of the writer to attempt an explanation, not of whether the Christian Faith can be believed, but of how he personally has come to believe it. The book is therefore arranged upon the positive principle of a riddle and its answer. It deals first with all the writer's own solitary and sincere speculations and then with the startling style in which they were all suddenly satisfied by the Christian Theology. The writer regards it as amounting to a convincing creed. But if it is not that it is at least a repeated and surprising coincidence.

  A magnificent epic set against a history of seven thousand years of the struggles of Gods and Kings and men—of strange lands and events—of fate and a prophecy that must be fulfilled! 
   
   
   
  THE BELGARIAD 
   
   
   
  Long ago, so the Storyteller claimed, the evil God Torak sought dominion and drove men and Gods to war. But Belgarath the Sorcerer led men to reclaim the Orb that protected men of the West. So long as it lay at Riva, the prophecy went, men would be safe. 
   
   
   
  But that was only a story, and Garion did not believe in magic dooms, even though the dark man without a shadow had haunted him for years. 
   
   
   
  Brought up on a quiet farm by his Aunt Pol, how could he know that the Apostate planned to wake dread Torak, or that he would be led on a quest of unparalleled magic and danger by those he loved—but did not know? 
   
   
   
  For a while his dreams of innocence were safe, untroubled by knowledge of his strange heritage. For a little while . . .

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  Lesotho, 1962. In the stark beauty of the snow-bitten Maluti Mountains, a single lie sets two futures on a collision course. 
  After a forced plane landing throws Philippa Tremain back into the path of Stuart Price—the rugged charter pilot she’s never forgotten—a reckless impulse takes hold. To secure shelter, she tells their rescuers they are newlyweds. Stuart, horrified but protective, plays along. But their impulsive story, captured in a celebratory photograph, doesn't stay buried in the mountains. 
  Months later, Philippa is seemingly back on track, courted by a wealthy diamond heir in Cape Town. But the photograph resurfaces in the hands of a ruthless criminal entangled in a highland diamond syndicate. What began as a desperate lie becomes dangerous leverage, threatening Philippa’s glittering future and Stuart’s freedom. 
  As blackmail, illicit diamond deals, and political tensions swirl in the final years of colonial Basutoland, Philippa is caught between the secure life she’s been promised and the man her lie has endangered. Stuart, haunted by his own past, must decide how much he'll risk for a future that seems impossible. 
  Drawn from the author's lived history in colonial Lesotho and her father's real-life investigations into diamond smuggling and ritual murder, The Lesotho Diamond is a sweeping novel of love tested by secrets, loyalty challenged by ambition, and the courage it takes to choose your own path on a continent poised for change. 
  Perfect for readers of Wilbur Smith’s epic African adventures and Kate Quinn’s character-driven historical sagas.
