Open Your Norse Treasure Box! Enter a world where gods and goddesses mingle with the supernatural beings of the Asgard and Jotunheim, where heroes fight epic battles and monsters are thwarted; where legendary tales are told with an eye toward eternal glory-the treasure that is Norse mythology is an undeniable pleasure to read. Explore another world of medieval times, never to be forgotten. The motifs of Norse legends are similar to that of many other mythologies: Magic is a handy way to explain the extraordinary; heroes are larger-than-life, with superhuman strength and wisdom to spare; gods are tricky and should be approached with caution; harrowing journeys are undertaken; battles are fought and champions are forged. The Norse were the victims of internecine battles and foreign conquests, yet their legacy survives with a long-standing oral tradition that, eventually, was written down. We can see the Norse evolution from settled farmers to raiding Vikings to Christian converts through the thread of their treasure trove of myths and tales. This book can take you through that journey, beginning with an overview of the Norse peoples and cultures, and into an understanding of their pantheon of gods and goddesses, their amazing tales of adventure and restless search for meaning, and a glimpse into who they actually were via the stories they held dear. Some specific elements you will encounter: - Some of the main gods of the Norse pantheon, with all their quirks and foibles - The mystery of the Nine Worlds, including Asgard and Valhalla - The wily ways in which Norse myths weave moral lessons throughout - The greatest hero, Thor, and the greatest trickster, Loki, in all of Norse myth - The story of Beowulf-the greatest literary hero to emerge out of Scandinavia - Tales of the race of giants-the devourers-who spread chaos and destruction - The twisted tale of the Mead of Suttungr, the inspiration for poets - The original version of Ragnarok-end of the universe - Profiles of trolls and Valkyries, elves and dwarves-the supernatural population of Norse mythology - The relationship between Midgard and the gods - A glimpse into the myriad ways that Norse culture and its mythology still yet influence our world today Norse mythology is diverse and fascinating, offering us an insight into how ancient people believed and lived, what they valued and vilified, and how they lived and thrived. If you have enjoyed these treasured tales of Norse mythology, don't forget to explore the other fantastic realms of mythological magic in this series of books: Treasures of Egyptian Mythology, Treasures of Celtic Mythology, Treasures of Roman Mythology, and Treasures of Greek Mythology. You will find yourself in awe of the sweeping scope of history and culture represented by these mythological traditions, as well as gain a better understanding of how we continually make and re-make these myths for our own times. That's the fabulous thing about myths: They never truly die.

Time is running out for Cameron and Selena to find the Unbreakable Sword and Nuada's heir before the Norse lead a devastating war against the Tuatha Dé for control of the Otherworld. But ever since Cameron took the Spear and became the next sun god, new threats keep emerging: one from a Persian god and one from Cameron himself.In their quest to find the Sword, Selena is confronted with the uncomfortable realization that Ukko might not be as evil as she'd always believed, but he's clearly no ally either, so where does that leave the New Pantheon? And worse still, when presented with the truth about Alan's deception, she discovers that some afflictions of the heart are far worse than just having it broken.In the third book of The Unbreakable Sword series, Cameron and Selena must find Nuada's Sword if they are to combat the Norse in the upcoming Battle of the Gods. But if Cameron can't learn how to be a god himself, none of the Treasures of the Gods will matter.

All humans have their purposes. If they serve their purposes, their souls are subject to recall and are reincarnated in new vessels with new purposes. But after thousands of years of reincarnating, some are ready for departing this plane of existence and being reborn in a different world or a different existencethe god existence. The Treasures for Ascension from the God of All Knowing describes this path to ascension, and it can guide individuals on a virtuous path of enlightenment. Because it takes three steps to be with God, author Khamsone Limsavanh has translated his vision into three unique chapters. The first shares a narrative of a young man and his journey into his mind and soul, where he encounters two supreme beings who later reveal to him the meaning of life. The second chapter uncovers more details of this young mans dark past and how he attains enlightenment. And the third chapter concludes by providing evidence for divine intervention in our lives, as the divine assist us and help us understand our destinies. If you are ready for awakening, you must become ready for ascension. The gods in you will make you immortal when you ascend if you subdue the dark forces in you. This has been the goal from the beginning. If you are not ready for ascension, you must accept the path of enlightenment. Maybe the next reincarnation is the one for you. Good luck!

" ... No one can plausibly deny that the religious development of the peoples of Canaan (and indeed of all the ancient world around the eastern Mediterranean to the Indus river) were affected by the cultural and religious developments in Mesopotamia, the centre of the region, and a fertile region second to none known in the world, on a par with the Nile, around which another major civilization arose. This is a text of history of Mesopotamia in its own right. By the time history gets back this far, the lines become very blurred, rather like parallel lines intersecting on the horizon. Literature, religion, archaeology, sociology, psychology -- all of these disciplines become intertwined in Jacobsen's text as he looks at Sumerian society. The book is organized with an introduction, then according to time divisions of fourth, third, and second millennia, then concludes with an epilogue into the first millennium, during which the Bible as we know it (and most ancient history such as is commonly known occurred) came to be"--Amazon.com.
