For Francisco Cantú, the border is in the blood: His mother, a park ranger and daughter of a Mexican immigrant, raised him in the scrublands of the Southwest. Driven to understand the hard realities of the landscape he loves, Cantú joins the Border Patrol. He and his partners learn to track other humans under blistering sun and through frigid nights. They haul in the dead and deliver to detention those they find alive. Plagued by a growing awareness of his complicity in a dehumanizing enterprise, he abandons the patrol for civilian life.

Kingdom theology for Christians without a country.

Private Treva was a laughing stock. A joke! Nothing more than an undereducated farmhand. But she was determined to prove them all wrong with every fighting bone in her body...

Like the throngs before her, Treva endured the basic training the Odana Army doled out. Under the disapproving gaze of those around, she pushed through the most brutal military training and progressively challenging leaders. As her rank increased...

Seamos "progres", conservadores o quimeras, el peso otorgado a la idea de exclusividad en una relación amorosa es un tema que levanta pasiones. En el fondo se nos educa para aspirar a una utopía: al día en que finalmente descubramos el Amor Verdadero y encontremos a nuestra media naranja. Pero la fantasía del amor romántico, lejos de ser la eterna felicidad que nos promete, es el origen de muchas de nuestras miserias, y está atravesada por expectativas que conjuntan contexto político, cultural e historia personal.

In this first version of Chaucer's classic to be presented in modern English by John Tatlock and Percy Mackay, the tales told by a Miller, a Knight, a Frira, a Nun and many more are often bawdy, bloody and full of religious zeal

The Odana war had left Canella's town of Zerga a dried-up shell, barely a hint of its former self... Since the war, her sultry services at the town's only tavern had withered away. Instead of despair, an unexpected wave of relief swept over her. She took her life savings, and scant possessions, and left the only place she'd ever known. Canella didn't know where she was going but she had sworn off the work she conducted at the tavern. She had no plan on how she'd make money again or where she'd stay. She simply did not know and at the moment, and she did not care. At least, not until she ...

They only just won the battle to reclaim his throne when a private celebration between Lanico and Treva leaves her in a mysterious slumber. So begins a new urgent quest to find the cure - while there’s time! Unable to tear himself from keeping vigil at her bedside, his newly reclaimed kingdom waits for his rule… But that was the enemy's plan. A far darker movement had already begun - stirring beneath the shadows. A hidden adversary had been manipulating the king’s plans from behind the scenes this entire time, and his troubles are far greater than he ever imagined. Time is ticking ...

Sirvan estas líneas para anunciar formalmente mi renuncia en Parker International (y a su arrogante y condescendiente director), efectiva a partir de hoy en dos semanas. Ha sido una decisión MUY FÁCIL de tomar, dado que los dos últimos años han sido un horror total. Espero que su nueva asistente ejecutiva tenga toda la suerte del mundo (la necesitará), y si mi jefe me necesita para cualquier cosa en estas dos semanas, que alguien le diga que puede apañárselas solo. Este es el aviso de dimisión que debí haber mandado con dos semanas de antelación a mi jefe.
