Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Drawing on critics ranging from Bakhtin and Curtius to Harold Bloom and Maria Corti, Orphans of Petrarch offers extended discussions of these major poets, and a net exposition of the development of Spanish Renaissance poetics, from the point of view of modern critical theory. Contributing to the discussion about imitation and belatedness, and grounded in both philology and cultural theory, it is the first book to integrate the "Spanish difference" into an understanding of Renaissance lyric as a European phenomenon."--BOOK JACKET.

Crucible is a page-turning thriller that runs side by side with the phenomenal Left Behind series. The world is exploding in confusion and terror following the disappearances in book one. Meanwhile, Army Rangers and Marine Special Forces are struggling to keep the peace, while fighting spiritual battles of their own in the sands of Turkey and back home. #3 Apocalypse Burning First Sergeant Samuel Adams “Goose” Gander is on the front lines, fighting a battle against superior forces. Goose’s wife, Megan, is fighting for her freedom in a court case where all the facts seem stacked against her. Meanwhile, Chaplain Delroy Harte believes that the Rapture may have happened but can’t be sure until he has dealt with the demons of his past. #4 Apocalypse Unleashed In this a much-anticipated conclusion to the Apocalypse series, First Sergeant “Goose” Gander of the United States Army Rangers is in over his head, and he knows it. Trapped by the Rapture in the carnage of Middle Eastern war, far from his wife and kid back home, he’s living every day on the edge, afraid each moment might be his last, terrified that he’ll never see the people he loves again. The war on the Syrian/Turkish border is heating up, and the opposition armies and the local warlords are skirmishing for power in a no-man’s land filled with innocent victims that Goose hopes to protect. Goose soon discovers elements within his own forces, fearful of his leadership, are determined to bring him down. With everybody gunning for him, Goose is going to need a miracle to pull off his mission. Even as he struggles to believe in the God of miracles, Goose is about to discover the power of redemption and the bulwark of pure faith. And as the Hand of God closes over him and he accepts salvation, Goose Gander will finally find the peace he seeks, even as the war-torn land around him explodes in violence.

Book excerpt: The Mediterranean, 13th Century BC. A ship travels from Athens to Knossos, carrying Prince Theseus and a group of soldiers who are destined to enter the Labyrinth to fight the brutal, ruthless Minotaur in a tournament to the death. They encounter a young man adrift in the sea and haul him aboard. He claims he is Icarus, son of Daedalus, who has fled Knossos, using a flying machine developed by him and his father. Icarus warns them of a terrifying plot by Knossos to poison Athens's water supply to annihilate the city's population so Knossos can invade with little or no resistance. Sceptical about the man's identity and his story, the soldiers must ultimately decide if they believe him and if so, how they can defeat the Minotaur and prevent the attack on their home city. The ancient Greek myths of Daedalus & Icarus and the Labyrinth have been told for many centuries but this pulsating adventure novel, overflowing with incident, unearths the incredible story behind those myths. Covering themes of military ambition, genocide and intrigue that are still relevant today, it is a powerful work of contemporary fiction that happens to be set in the past.

The ladies of the Monstrous Regiment are also there to help, but there may be other gothic monsters in the hills...
