Annie walked away to protect him from the demon hunting her. Rhys is determined to win her back. Facing an impossible choice, Annika Turner leaves the man she’s falling for in order to protect him. The clock is ticking, counting down the days until the demon who killed her mother and her husband returns to kill her, too. She must control her Gift, learn new skills, and master witchy politics before it’s too late. If anyone had asked him a few months ago, Rhys Carter would have said that he didn’t have a heart to break. Then Annie walked out on him. Hell-bent on destroying the demon that hunts her, he holds onto the hope that the woman who invades his dreams at night will one day return to him.
On the run from the demon that killed her husband, the witches who trained her, and the US Marshals who hunt him, will Annie and Rhys rebuild what she walked away from? Annika Turner never thought she’d get another chance at love after a demon killed her husband. Then she met Rhys Carter, and now he’s in trouble. Big trouble. Annie abandons the community that took her in and trained her in order to save the man she loves from federal law enforcement. Nothing surprises Rhys Carter more than when Annie turns up just as the feds close in. He had almost given up hope that he would ever see the woman he loves again. Hunted by a demon, witches, and the US Marshals, they must find a way to save Annie, save Rhys, and save their future together.
This book reveals the economic motivations underpinning colonial, neocolonial and neoliberal eras of global capitalism that are represented in critiques of inequality in postcolonial fiction. Today’s economic inequality, suffered disproportionately by indigenous and minority groups of postcolonial societies in both developed and developing countries, is a direct outcome of the colonial-era imposition of capitalist structures and practices. The longue durée, world-systems approach in this study reveals repeating patterns and trends in the mechanics of capitalism that create and maintain inequality. As well as this, it reveals the social and cultural beliefs and practices that justify and s...
Over the past decades, the growing interest in the study of literature of the city has led to the development of literary urban studies as a discipline in its own right. The Routledge Companion to Literary Urban Studies provides a methodical overview of the fundamentals of this developing discipline and a detailed outline of new directions in the field. It consists of 33 newly commissioned chapters that provide an outline of contemporary literary urban studies. The Companion covers all of the main theoretical approaches as well as key literary genres, with case studies covering a range of different geographical, cultural, and historical settings. The final chapters provide a window into new ...
The volume assembles fresh treatments on the flâneur in literature, film and culture from a variety of angles. Its individual contributions cover established as well as previously unnoticed textual and filmic source materials in a historical perspective ranging from the late nineteenth to the early twenty-first century. The range of topics covered demonstrates the ongoing productivity of flânerie as a viable paradigm for the artistic approach to urban culture and the continuing suitability of flânerie as an analytic category for the scholarly examination of urban representation in the arts. This productiveness also extends to the questioning, re-evaluation, and enhancement of flânerie’s theoretical foundations as they were laid down by Walter Benjamin and others. The work will be particularly relevant for students and scholars of literary studies, film studies and gender studies, as well as for theoretical approaches to flânerie as an important aspect of urban culture.
Based on exhaustive archival research, including new material from family papers, Tirpitz and the Imperial German Navy is the first extended study in English of this germinal figure in the growth of the modern navy.
It seemed that whenever Mussolini acted on his own, it was bad news for Hitler. Indeed, the Fuhrer's relations with his Axis partners were fraught with an almost total lack of coordination. Compared to the Allies, the coalition was hardly an alliance at all. Focusing on Germany's military relations with Italy, Romania, Hungary, and Finland, Richard DiNardo unearths a wealth of information that reveals how the Axis coalition largely undermined Hitler's objectives from the Eastern Front to the Balkans, Mediterranean, and North Africa. DiNardo argues that the Axis military alliance was doomed from the beginning by a lack of common war aims, the absence of a unified command structure, and each n...
