A concise history of the goddess-like figures who evade both Christian and pagan traditions, from the medieval period to the present day In this riveting account, renowned scholar Ronald Hutton explores the history of deity-like figures in Christian Europe. Drawing on anthropology, archaeology, literature, and history, Hutton shows how hags, witches, the Fairy Queen, and the Green Man all came to be, and how they changed over the centuries. Looking closely at four main figures—Mother Earth, the Fairy Queen, the Mistress of the Night, and the Old Woman of Gaelic tradition—Hutton challenges decades of debate around the female figures who have long been thought versions of pre-Christian goddesses. He makes the compelling case that these goddess figures found in the European imagination did not descend from the pre-Christian ancient world, yet have nothing Christian about them. It was in fact nineteenth-century scholars who attempted to establish the narrative of pagan survival that persists today.

Perfect for current fans and new readers alike, Knaves Over Queens is an all-new adventure set in London, featuring a fresh cast of characters from the Wild Cards universe. Developed by aliens and field-tested on Earth, the virus known as Xenovirus Takis-A was released in New York in 1946, changing the course of human history forever. Most of those infected die — and a tiny percentage become deformed beings known as jokers. A lucky few survivors become aces: superhumans gifted with amazing powers. Now the virus has reached Britain. There, Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill, gifted with extraordinary longevity, together with the Enigma ace Alan Turing, set up a special organization named the Order of the Silver Helix. They will need all of the wild cards they can find if they are to deal with the terrifying mutations spawned by the virus. Edited by #1 New York Times bestselling author George R. R. Martin and Melinda M. Snodgrass, Knaves Over Queens features the writing talents of Paul Cornell, Marko Kloos, Mark Lawrence, Kevin Andrew Murphy, Emma Newman, Peter Newman, Peadar O Guilin, Melinda M.

Harlequin meets Game of Thrones in this steamy, high-stakes fantasy romance. A MARRIAGE TREATY SEEMS A SMALL PRICE TO PAY FOR THE SAFETY OF HER PEOPLE... BUT SHE'S IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE ELSE. CAN SHE SACRIFICE THE ONLY THING SHE'S EVER WANTED? Zenobia, newly appointed Chief Lady of Tenoreth, is on a mission to save her people who have just survived a crippling natural disaster only to be attacked by rogue soldiers from a neighbouring nation. She travels for weeks with her companions--her trusted lieutenant and two giant magical cats--to the capital only to discover the King is an old friend and his closest advisor is her childhood crush. Negotiating a peace treaty is simp... all she needs do to keep her people safe is marry one of the King's noblemen. NOTHING HAS EVER MATTERED TO HIM MORE THAN THE KING'S SAFETY... UNTIL NOW. High Commander Andrew barely recognizes the wild little girl he once knew--she's turned into a powerful woman who stirs an irresistible yearning. There are a hundred reasons he can't have her. She's promised to marry a nobleman to secure an alliance between their nations, and Andrew, born a peasant and a bastard, will never be considered good enough. It doesn't matter anyway, because he's sworn a vow of celibacy in service of his best friend, and King. A DANGEROUS AFFAIR... When Andrew is tasked with Zenobia's safety during her stay, assassins, sacred religious practices, and impending civil war force them into each other's arms. Will his devotion to his code of ethics and her determination to save her people from ruin be enough for them to deny an attraction that would have disastrous and possibly fatal consequences? Reader Warning: This novel features plenty of steam and some brief gore/violence. Dark Themes throughout, but there is a HEA.

Fresh from her perilous journey above the cloud, Tovi is impatient for more adventure and begs for Silas to give her a task. When his response is not what she wanted, Tovi takes matters into her own hands, battling floods and fire on her way to a strange land. Trapped on the mountain, King Damien and his loyal weapons build their army and plot their next moves. They must collect his heirs, root out the treasonous resistance, and stop the prophecies from ever coming true. An old magic stirs in Damien’s lungs, but he needs a jar of Silas’ paint to use his powers. When one in his most inner circle reveals a disgusting secret, Damien knows it is only a matter of time before the paint is in his hands. Then, victory will forever be his. Far from Adia, in a cave above the sea, another prophecy awaits Tovi, pointing to an overwhelming and unwanted destiny that will require another visit to her grandfather’s kingdom above the cloud.
