If the gods realize Lexi is the daughter of Hades and Persephone, she’ll become their next sacrifice. Lexi’s only path to safety is to free her father from the prison the other gods have trapped him in. To do so, she must enlist the help of a loyal and gorgeous hellhound, and an obnoxious but sexy hero. No one warned her about the trials that await. The maze that threatens to consume her. The rampaging champion who can kill her with a single blow. And the vengeful ex who would slaughter them all without a second thought. And she definitely wasn’t warned about the loves fate has in store for her. When she discovers Cerberus’ and Actaeon’s lies, she may lose both her heart and her life, regardless of what fate wants. Author’s Note: Truth’s Harem is a #WhyChoose series, with an older heroine who finds her happily ever after with three partners over the length of the series.

Lexi hates the gods. Their arrogance. Their disregard for life. Their oppressive rule. Her father, Hades, is no exception. But since his brothers imprisoned him in a labyrinth, he and Lexi share a common goal--destroying the other gods. To free him, she must enlist the help of a loyal and gorgeous hellhound, and an obnoxious but sexy hero. No one warned her about the trials that await. The void that threatens to consume her. The rampaging champion who can kill her with a single blow. And the ex who's looking for vengeance of the fatal variety. And they definitely left out the details about fated love. Twice over. Now Lexi must decide what she's willing to surrender to defeat opponents who will sacrifice humanity before they'll forfeit their power.

Sometimes, honour and bravery can win a reprieve from destiny. A story of hope and despair, as Artificial intelligences, posthumans, and other minds struggle against their fates. Amongst other events... The too-biological Zee leaves, feeling the call of an older blessing than the ones her peers have received. An old man, who knows more than he should, arrives at the school, to try and show Zu that here is a path other than the one others have demanded of him. Hofstadter, the AI in the form of a teddy bear, begins her own complex journey into being. A life that could have been filled with light is instead infected with darkness, and the Soldier passes on to his reward. 'But I need you to understand I'm doing this because I love you, and you're too important for the fate that's written for you. You need someone out there, and I'll find a way for you to come join me, but... well, it'll take a long time. But have faith. Sometimes it'll seem like I'm working against you, but I'll always be fighting against them, and for you." She drags a hand across her eyes, dispelling the nascent tears. "I've been exploring Bios with Zoê, and in all the worlds clouds gather around you. Your path is filled with light and wonder, but someone has to stand in the darkness and protect you, make sure you don't shine so bright you just burn the world away. I'm doing this for you two, and for my own soul." Zee, unlike Zu and the others being inducted into the Hegemony, is unable to extend her body through technology. Within the Monad, she is the being most capable of understanding humanity, of recognising mortality within the natural order. This makes her capable of understanding the lie imprisoning her trans and posthuman classmates, but most importantly her friend Zu, the most powerful asset in Abraxas, who is to be installed as the Hegemon. With central command of the powerful new network given to Zu, Zee knows that humanity's fate depends on her friend keeping what little remains of his soul, before he fully integrates with the new weapons system and forgets what it means to doubt.The path Zee is choosing will mean betraying everything she has been raised towards, effectively becoming a killswitch, for a relic of a dying world that only she, among all of them, can still value.After all... They were told that their transformation would change the world, and Zee knows this to be true, but she alone can see what the rest of the room has been programmed to ignore; that the price for immortality might just be too high. In Zu's case, can intelligent design be reversed from its course when the juggernaut of A.I, Zu's natural proclivity, has gained unrestricted momentum? As Adam, it might already be too late.

Science and Magic in the Modern World is a unique text that explores the role of magical thinking in everyday life. It provides an excellent psychological look at the subconscious belief in magic in both popular culture and society, as well as experimental research that considers human consciousness as a derivative of belief in the supernatural, thus showing that our feelings, emotions, attitudes and other psychological processes follow the laws of magic. This book synthesises the science of ‘natural’ phenomena and the magic of the ‘supernatural’ to present an interesting look at the juxtaposition of the inner and outer selves. Fusing research into psychological disorders, subconscious feelings, as well as the rising presence of artificial intelligence, this book demonstrates how an engagement with magical thinking can enhance one’s creativity and cognitive skills. Science and Magic in the Modern World is an invaluable resource for those studying consciousness, as well as those looking at the effect of magical thinking on religion, politics, science and society.

First published in 1927, 'The Future of an Illusion' examines the roots of society and religion, written by Sigmund Freud, an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis, a clinical method for evaluating and treating pathologies in the psyche through dialogue between a patient and a psychoanalyst. This is Freud's best-known and most assertive psychoanalytic investigation of religion and is the fruition of a lifelong practice of reflection. Freud uses his understanding of psychology to examine the roots of both civilization and religion. This takes the form of a comprehensive essay, with Freud forming an argument throughout its chapters about the history of religion and the part it should play in society's future. Freud wrote a number of influential books that popularized his psychoanalytic theories, such as 'The Interpretation of Dreams' (1899) and 'The Ego and the Id' (1923). "Immorality, no less than morality, has at all times found support in religion." -Sigmund Freud, The Future of an Illusion

The year 2000, the end of the millennium: is this anything other than a mirage, the illusion of an end, like so many other imaginary endpoints which have littered the path of history? In this remarkable book Jean BaurdrillardFrance's leading theorist of postmodernityargues that the notion of the end is part of the fantasy of a linear history. Today we are not approaching the end of history but moving into reverse, into a process of systematic obliteration. We are wiping out the entire twentieth century, effacing all signs of the cold War one by one, perhaps even the signs of the First and Second World Wars and of the political and ideological revolutions of our time. In short, we are engaged in a gigantic process of historical revisionism, and we seem in a hurry to finish it before the end of the century, secretly hoping perhaps to be able to begin again from scratch. Baudrillard explores the "fatal strategies of time" which shape our ways of thinking about history and its imaginary end. Ranging from the revolutions in Eastern Europe to the Gulf War, from the transformation of nature to the hyper-reality of the media, this postmodern mediation on modernity and its aftermath will be widely read.

Acorns delineates the future of humanity as a reunification of intellect with the Deep Self. Having chosen to focus upon ego (established securely by the time of Christ), much more beta brain wave development will destroy our species and others, which process has already begun. We create our own realities through beliefs, intents and desires and we were in and out of probabilities constantly. Feelings follow beliefs, not the other way around.

The American film noir, the popular genre that focused on urban crime and corruption in the 1940s and 1950s, exhibits the greatest amount of narrative experimentation in the modern American cinema. Spurred by postwar disillusionment, cold war anxieties, and changing social circumstances, these films revealed the dark side of American life and, in doing so, created unique narrative structures in order to speak of that darkness. J.P. Telotte's in-depth discussion of classic films noir--including The Lady from Shanghai, The Lady in the Lake, Dark Passage, Double Indemnity, Kiss Me Deadly, and Murder, My Sweet--draws on the work of Michel Foucault to examine four dominant noir narrative strategies.
