![]() ![]() I have been gladly following his work since as well. ![]() I ran across Michael Bird when I reviewed his spectacular tome Evangelical Theology. I’ve read just about everything the former Bishop has penned since. Just in that year (while working, learning Greek, and avoiding the west Texas heat that felt like Tatooine), I also worked through Jesus and the Victory of God, Who is Jesus? The Climax of the Covenant, Following Jesus, The Original Jesus, and his commentary on Colossians. I picked up The New Testament and the People of God for my Introduction to the NT class and was so intrigued I began to deduct an hour or so of sleep in order to keep reading his work.

At the height of the campaign, there were 7,000 sets of signs in 45 states. Signs were positioned all over the country. This advertising gimmick for Burma-Shave, which spanned 40 years, increased the product’s popularity and sales even during the Great Depression and World War II. The last sign was an advertisement for Burma-Shave, a brushless shaving cream. Each red sign was spaced about 100 feet apart on the roadside and contained lines of a short, humorous rhyme written in white lettering. Before the interstate, commuters and travelers were amused by a sequence of clever road signs they saw as they traveled down two-lane highways in the 1920s-60s. ![]() ![]() Q: Monsters follows the life of Mary Shelley, the author of Frankenstein. ![]() We asked SHARON DOGAR to tell us more about MONSTERS: ![]() MONSTERS explores Mary Shelley's relationships and the events that led to the creation of one of the most recognisable and enduring monsters in English literature.

![]() ![]() The whole book was rather anticlimactic and boring. Like three little scenes that were not nearly enough time to work through these problems, and for Sonny to understand why Kelley said what she said. ![]() They were together for all of five to ten minutes through the whole book. And they were rarely together in the book. Just all of sudden together where they both wanted, and this lie still hanging in front of them. ![]() And when they finally see each other again, they fall straight into each other’s arms, and start kissing. Kelley had just said that she didn’t love Sonny, and he left heartbroken. And their reunion and trust in each other happened too suddenly. There was some love, they did kiss, but I didn’t really feel it. I was ready for some heartbreaking moments between Sonny and Kelley, fighting, tears, passionate love as they confessed their undying love to each other. I was left with such a bitter cliffhanger after Darklight, and was anxious for this book, but it fell flat. Tempestuous, just wasn’t what I was expecting. ![]() ![]() As a white woman, Cara journeys toward understanding the racial realities of individual and systemic racism through falling in love with the son of a black icon and raising two mixed-raced sons.

I was a very big fan of ‘ Homecoming’, so was thrilled to learn that Anna and Charles (themselves a spin-off from Mercy’s world) would also be bought to drawn life. ‘ Alpha and Omega’ is the second of Briggs’ series to get the graphic treatment, after her New York Times Bestseller ‘Mercy Thompson’ series was adapted in 2009. ‘Cry Wolf: Volume One’ is the first graphic novel instalment of ‘ Alpha and Omega’, an adaptation of Patricia Briggs’s urban fantasy werewolf series of the same name. And it is Anna’s inner strength and calming presence that will prove invaluable as she and Charles go on the hunt in search of a rogue werewolf-a creature bound in magic so dark that it could threaten all the pack… ![]() Then Charles Cornick, the enforcer-and son-of the leader of the North American werewolves, came into her life.Ĭharles insists that not only is Anna his mate, but she is also a rare and valued Omega wolf.
