Summary: "Plagued by chronic pain and fatigue, Liyen is the scion of the Tianxian court, a mortal kingdom enclosed by the walls of the Immortal Realm. The people there are the bulwark against mortal incursions into this sacred place, and in return they are protected from the demonic Asura. But when her father--the Lord of Tianxia--steals a magical flower from the immortal queen they owe fealty to, his punishment becomes Liyen's burden: the throne of Tianxia. Before he died, he asked Liyen to do one thing: free their people from the Queen of the Golden Desert. Resolved to do exactly that--all while trying to maintain her tenuous control of her own ministers--she is escorted to the Immortal Realm by the dark and dangerous God of War. She has seen him in action before: he was the one who rained fire upon their home to reclaim what her father had stolen, and he was also the one who stood by as her father died. Liyen hates this mysterious warrior...and hates that he has depths that are not reflected in the legends she's heard about him. Both of them are hiding secrets. Both of them have duties that require them to do whatever must be done, no matter who might be hurt. But both of them are also alone. Both are also in pain. And they are finding out the person who might be their greatest enemy is the one who knows your heart the best"--

Summary: "Since our inception, humanity has looked to dreams for guidance. But what are they? How can we understand them? And how can we use them to shape our lives? There is perhaps no one more equipped to answer these questions than the legendary psychologist Carl G. Jung. It is in his life's work that the unconscious mind comes to be understood as an expansive, rich world that is just as vital and true as the conscious mind, and it is in our dreams--those integral expressions of our deepest selves--that the unconscious communicates itself to us. Man and His Symbols offers us invaluable insight into the symbols we dream that demand understanding, into how they affect our lives, and into why we seek meaning in them at all. It is a seminal text, written explicitly for the general reader, full of fascinating case studies and examples pulled from a variety of surprising sources, that proves to be--decades after its conception--a relevatory, absorbing, and relevant experience." --

Summary: "For detective Sam Porter, the words 'Father, forgive me' conjure memories long forgotten--a past intentionally buried. For Anson Bishop, these three words connect a childhood to the present as he unleashes a truth concealed for decades. Found written on cardboard near each body, these words link multiple victims to a single killer--discovered within minutes of each other in both Chicago and South Carolina--clearly connected yet separated by impossible miles"--Dust jacket flap

Summary: "Heroes are often defined as ordinary characters who are thrust into extraordinary circumstances, and through courage and a dash of luck, cement their place in history. Chosen as FDR's fourth-term vice president for his well-praised work ethic, good judgment, and lack of enemies, Harry S. Truman--a midwesterner who had no college degree and had never had the money to buy his own home--was the prototypical ordinary man. Until, that is, he found himself quickly in over his head after FDR's death. The first four months of Truman's administration saw the founding of the United Nations, the fall of Berlin, victory at Okinawa, firebombings in Tokyo, the first atomic explosion, the Nazi surrender, the liberation of concentration camps, the mass starvation of Europe, the Potsdam Conference, the controversial decision to bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the surrender of imperial Japan, and finally, the end of World War II and the rise of the Cold War. No other president had ever faced so much in so short a time. Tightly focused, meticulously researched, and rendered with vivid detail and narrative verse, The Accidental President takes readers into the situation room with Truman during this tumultuous, history making 120 days when the stakes were high and the challenges even higher. The result is narrative history of the highest order and a compelling look at a presidency with great relevance to our times."--Dust jacket. In Truman's first four months in office, this unlikely president had to take on Germany, Japan, Stalin, and the atomic bomb, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance. Chosen as FDR's fourth term Vice President for his work ethic, good judgment, and lack of enemies, Truman was thrust in over his head after FDR's sudden death.Baime escorts readers into the situation room with Truman during this tumultuous, history-making 120 days, when the stakes were high and the challenge even higher.

Summary: "An instant American icon--the first Hispanic on the U.S. Supreme Court--tells the story of her life before becoming a judge in an inspiring, surprisingly personal memoir. With startling candor and intimacy, Sonia Sotomayor recounts her life from a Bronx housing project to the federal bench, a progress that is testament to her extraordinary determination and the power of believing in oneself. She writes of her precarious childhood and the refuge she took with her passionately spirited paternal grandmother. She describes her resolve as a young girl to become a lawyer, and how she made this dream become reality: valedictorian of her high school class, summa cum laude at Princeton, Yale Law, prosecutor in the Manhattan D.A.'s office, private practice, federal district judge before the age of forty. She writes about her deeply valued mentors, about her failed marriage, about her cherished family of friends. Through her still-astonished eyes, America's infinite possibilities are envisioned anew in this ... book"--

Summary: Twenty-five hundred years ago, Pythagoras taught that the simple counting numbers are the basic building blocks of reality. A century and a half later, Plato argued that the world we live in is but a poor copy of the world of ideas. Neither realized that their numbers and ideas might also be the most basic components of the human psych: archetypes. This book traces the modern evolution of this idea from the Renaissance to the 20th century, leading up to the archetypal hypothesis of psychologist C.G. Jung, and the mirroring of mathematical ideas of Kurt Godel.
