SciFi aficionado, Avery Blake, and sorceress of suspense, Ninie Hammon, team up to bring you The Changed. This is the second book in The Taken Saga, a terrifying tale of alien invasion told from the perspective of three very special young people. In the last moment of their captivity on board the alien ship, Star, Noah, and Paco are made separate offers: they will be returned to earth, but they each must abandon the other two. Star and Noah refuse outright, but Paco … Does he believe the other two have already betrayed and abandoned him? When the three are returned to the places they were abducted from, their ability to read minds begins to fade, but Paco struggles to hold on, trying to use his newfound mental power to dominate the prison inmates and get revenge on Spade. But is he damaging his own brain every time he wields his power? Star and her grandfather attempt a perilous journey from New Mexico to Kentucky to find Noah because Star can’t stand being separated from him— but they are kidnapped and turned into slave labor for a warlord. There’s something special about Star now and when she is threatened, the other captives rise up to defend her. Are they strong enough to beat the kidnappers? A few days after Noah is returned to Kentucky, an alien shuttle crashes near his hometown. The Astrals are injured and then attacked by a truck full of drunk humans. The Astrals retaliate, destroy the town and the survivors regroup in a monastery. A gang of outlaws attacks the monastery to steal their supplies. They have taken Noah hostage — will they actually hang him from the archway out front unless the survivors surrender? Noah cries out to Star telepathically for help. She’s coming, trying to get there with an army … but will she get there in time? The Changed is the second book in the new alien invasion series, The Taken Saga, by Avery Blake and Ninie Hammon.

What Changed When Everything Changed

DIV Beautifully written and carefully reasoned, this bold and provocative work upends the conventional wisdom about the American reaction to crisis. Margulies demonstrates that for key elements of the post-9/11 landscape—especially support for counterterror policies like torture and hostility to Islam—American identity is not only darker than it was before September 11, 2001, but substantially more repressive than it was immediately after the attacks. These repressive attitudes, Margulies shows us, have taken hold even as the terrorist threat has diminished significantly. Contrary to what is widely imagined, at the moment of greatest perceived threat, when the fear of another attack “hung over the country like a shroud,” favorable attitudes toward Muslims and Islam were at record highs, and the suggestion that America should torture was denounced in the public square. Only much later did it become socially acceptable to favor “enhanced interrogation” and exhibit clear anti-Muslim prejudice. Margulies accounts for this unexpected turn and explains what it means to the nation’s identity as it moves beyond 9/11. We express our values in the same language, but that language can hide profound differences and radical changes in what we actually believe. “National identity,” he writes, “is not fixed, it is made.” /div

Two French Protestant refugees in eighteenth-century Amsterdam gave the world an extraordinary work that intrigued and outraged readers across Europe. In this captivating account, Lynn Hunt, Margaret Jacob, and Wijnand Mijnhardt take us to the vibrant Dutch Republic and its flourishing book trade to explore the work that sowed the radical idea that religions could be considered on equal terms. Famed engraver Bernard Picart and author and publisher Jean Frederic Bernard produced The Religious Ceremonies and Customs of All the Peoples of the World, which appeared in the first of seven folio volumes in 1723. They put religion in comparative perspective, offering images and analysis of Jews, Catholics, Muslims, the peoples of the Orient and the Americas, Protestants, deists, freemasons, and assorted sects. Despite condemnation by the Catholic Church, the work was a resounding success. For the next century it was copied or adapted, but without the context of its original radicalism and its debt to clandestine literature, English deists, and the philosophy of Spinoza. Ceremonies and Customs prepared the ground for religious toleration amid seemingly unending religious conflict, and demonstrated the impact of the global on Western consciousness. In this beautifully illustrated book, Hunt, Jacob, and Mijnhardt cast new light on the profound insight found in one book as it shaped the development of a modern, secular understanding of religion.
