The battle at Greensfield may be over, but for Matthew, a widowed father from Earth now trapped on the magical world of Lunadus, peace is anything but certain. The Pure army marches ever closer, threatening to wipe out all who oppose them-elves, orcs, goblins and humans alike.

With his heart pulled between the beautiful elf Llyana, the ghost of his late wife Jenny, and the lure of this unknown mage, Matthew''s personal life is as complicated as the war erupting around him. All the while, Matthew must decide what he''s prepared to risk in order save the besieged people of Popolus.

In this follow-up to First Contact, Jason Wright delivers a fantasy adventure packed with magic, misfits, and moments that will make you laugh out loud.

The Creator has announced to the world that he demands a champion to fight in His name... Matthew Morton is a fifty-eight-year-old widower suffering from multiple sclerosis and cancer and, by all accounts, the last person to be considered for glory. But when the Creator contacts the citizens of Earth, galvanising the believers and shocking all, he chooses Matthew as His champion. Gifted with mythical powers, shapeshifting abilities and fearsome weapons, Matthew is sent to the magical world of Lunadus, the last bastion of hope and a place that opens his eyes to the sheer breadth of the universe he''s now sworn to save. Hellbent on wiping out anyone who wields magic or stands in the way of their goals, the Pure army is a seemingly unstoppable force. Matthew must secure allies and unite the discordant races of Lunadus to defend the Creator, protect Earth and save humankind.

It all starts with changing the opinion people have about your country, but we are facing an uphill struggle. For centuries Russia has built an image of Ukraine as the origin of Russia, with sayings such as ''Kyiv is the mother of all Russian cities'', and portraying Ukrainians as a version of Russian people, with no distinct nationality or language. u200bOf course, it is a lie. My father was born in Uman so I know the truth, but it is the general perception in the World that matters, not the reality, and Russians know this and use it to their advantage. Building this misconception was the foremost goal of the Kremlin''s propaganda for centuries.

In this unique book, Jason Wright analyses William Blake’s Illustrations of the Book of Job and shows their relevance in clinical psychoanalysis and psychotherapy with groups and individuals, especially while working with patients who have experienced trauma and addiction. Drawing on decades of work in the field, this book sees Wright offer sensitive guidance to practitioners dealing with client experiences of change through the lens of addiction and offers useful insight to the lay reader. Throughout the chapters, Wright studies each illustration in depth and shows how they chart the breakdown of Job’s life into a state of despair. Twinning a clinical vignette with each plate, Wright shows how these depictions can be directly applied to issues faced in contemporary analysis, therapy and addiction recovery. From Job’s dissolution to his eventual salvation, Wright insightfully maps the process of change from a place of destitution to one of redemption and hope set in the context of the group. He expertly brings Blakean theory into the 21st century by looking at contemporary experience such as the impact of the 2005 London bombings, as well as looking at the importance of community, collective experience and self-identity when seeking recovery. Throughout, Wright draws inspiration from eminent analysts such as Bion, Winnicott and Hillman, while also looking to Jung, Bohm and Whitehead to support his theories on the new way of being he proposes: a collective dynamic shift from a consciousness of exploitation to a consciousness of resonance. This book will be of great interest to psychoanalysts, psychotherapists and mental health professionals working in addiction recovery, as well as those interested in the work of Blake and its continued importance in the present day.

Book Excerpt, "The Organ Donor" !Move over Hannibal Lecter, the Organ Donor is here! The Organ Donor introduces readers to a remarkable first time author, who creates a one-of-a-kind serial killer and weaves a story so filled with unexpected twists and turns that readers are left a constant state of suspense. There are no clues, initially no bodies, and a frustrated police department with no experience dealing with a case like this one. The story begins in Scotland, as the police search for an elusive serial killer who begins sending human organs, with cryptic notes attached, to the Glasgow Metropolitan Police Department. It opens when an unidentified package lands on the desk of Detective Patrick Campbell. At first, he fears that the package might contain an IRA bomb and he calls in the bomb squad. However, he is shocked to find something even more horrific. Tucked inside a Ziploc bag, with a note hanging from it, is a set of human eyes, floating in a sea of formaldehyde. More organs begin arriving, and we feel their frustration as the detective and his task force continue to fail in their efforts to identify the victims or find the killer (now named the Organ Donor) who continues to escalate his reign of death by committing a series of murders with the bagged organs now being found near the victim''s bodies. Even though the officers now know the identities of the most recent victims, they are stymied by an ingenious killer, who seems able to anticipate their every move, leaves no clues, and mocks and frustrates them. As each set of murders grows more grisly, and time goes on, they are unable to apprehend him. The suspect grows tired of searching the streets for victims and playing with the police, and decides it''s time for him to go international. Next stop New York City. And he begins to wonder if he can find more excitement in New York City. At this point, the killer reveals his identity and readers join him as he commits another series of murders, following the exact same MO and producing the exact same results. As the Organ Donor reminisces about his early life we gain insight into how, over time, he began to evolve into a sadistic serial killer. With a genius IQ, he is able to play what he calls "games" with his victims, and later, with the investigators hunting him so diligently, no one is safe, even when the police, themselves, are targets. Only we know his identity, are witness to his crimes, and are aware of the machinations of his brilliant but evil mindset. The New York police are stymied, until, simply by accident and a nudge from the suspect; they discover that the Organ Donor is the same man that terrorized Scotland months before. When that connection is made, they invite the Scottish police to join them, and a task force is set up between the remaining detectives from Glasgow and the detectives in New York. Perhaps, by working together, they will be able to stop this madness. But, no, the killer continues to goad them, murder their citizens and outwit them at every turn (his twisted sense of humor intact throughout). As we move on in the story, readers find that even a sadistic genius killer can find lovethe last thing he expected to happen. In another of many plot twists, a woman, whom he had planned to torture and murder, is lured to the killer''s house. She works as a high priced escort and believes that he is just another client. However, when a strange connection to one another brings them closer together, he begins to wonder if it is possible, even for him, to lead a more normal life. However, as the murders continue, a series of clues are left behind, with a nudge from the suspect, for the detectives to try and figure out. Might the information finally tell the investigators the one responsible for these horrendous acts of mayhem? However, even when the joint task is finally able to discover his ident
