Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this gripping historical novel, pagan Duke Mieszko I of the Polans converts to Christianity to wed Dobrawa, daughter of Czech Boleslav I, forging a vital alliance against threats by Saxony and the Empire. Set in 10th-C Europe, the story blends political intrigue, spiritual conflict, and s…upernatural tension. Mieszko's decision-demanded by Dobrawa and negotiated thru envoys-avoids Emperor Otto I's attempt at dominance while gaining legitimacy. Dobrawa's faith drives the terms: public baptism or no marriage. Shaman Mscislaw fiercely opposes the shift from Mt. Sleza, increasingly corrupted by Veles, who offers dark power to preserve the old ways. Winter brings Mieszko's Easter decision and relocation to Ostrow Lednicki. The baptism occurs despite Mscislaw's failed supernatural disruption. Seeds of conversion take root thru Dobrawa's gentle influence, while pagan resistance hardens.Freshly Christian Poland faces immediate resistance and external peril. Mscislaw retreats to Mt. Sleza, fortifying it as a pagan stronghold. Dobrawa builds a Christian household thru charity and example. Mieszko establishes Christian governance-curtailing feuds but provoking nobles. Fr. Jordan secures an independent bishopric from Rome, thwarting imperial control and enraging Otto I. Pagan elites withdraw to the country, forming shadow networks. Mscislaw strengthens Sleza, while Veles spreads corruption via doubt and excess. Tensions rise until Mieszko marches on Sleza. Amid a brutal ascent and supernatural clash with Veles, Mieszko's forces seize the summit; Mscislaw flees unconverted, his influence lingering. Rebuilding follows: churches, literacy, and law take root, though syncretism persists. Dobrawa's patient evangelization grows. Mscislaw grapples with doubt after human endurance trumps divine signs. Saxon threat escalates under Margrave Odo; Veles exploits fear via Mscislaw. Christian unity strains but holds. At Cedynia (972), Polans repel a Saxon invasion thru discipline and terrain. Victory unites Christians and pagans in national pride, transcending divides and weakening Veles' hold on Mscislaw.Victory solidifies Mieszko's rule, enabling deeper Christianization. Dobrawa's influence expands thru works of mercy and women's networks, softening resistance. Mieszko enforces law uniformly, curbing noble autonomy while granting lands to the church. Pagan holdouts dwindle in rural pockets, some blending rites quietly. Mscislaw, isolated and conflicted, witnesses the old powers' irrelevance; Veles' corruption backfires, alienating followers. Dobrawa's health declines amid tireless labor; her final days emphasize love over force. Upon her death (977), grief unites factions-Mieszko mourns deeply, nobles honor her legacy. Her passing secures Christianity's emotional hold, as heir Boleslaw grows under mixed tutors. Mieszko consolidates borders, negotiates with Czechia and the Holy Roman Empire. Paganism fades from public life; transformation completes thru structure, grief, and quiet acceptance, cementing Poland's Christian identity.Mieszko's mature reign brings stability and expansion. Christian infrastructure matures-a bishopric, monasteries, churches. Boleslaw trains as the heir, blending warrior ethos with faith. Internal peace prevails; former pagans integrate, some become clergy. Mscislaw, aged and reflective, confronts his life's futility-Veles' promises hollow. Mieszko, aging, focuses on legacy: alliances, church patronage, and succession. Final years emphasize peace thru faith. In 992, weakened by illness, Mieszko dies peacefully, entrusting Poland to Boleslaw.

W wioskach okupowanej przez Prusy Polski w 1843 roku, gdzie wiara zderza sie z zakazanymi pragnieniami, Mojzesz Karnowski - czarujacy zydowski handlarz - wkracza na sciezke uwodzenia i grzechu. Kiedy zapladnia mloda katolicka dziewice Marte Nering, z ich nielegalnego zwiazku rodzi sie Walent…y Karnowski, dziecko skazane na zycie pelne prob. Ale rozpusta Mojzesza przyciaga mroczne sily: opetany przez demony, pograza sie w przemocy, kradziezach i morderstwach, terroryzujac okolice.Gdy polski katolicyzm zderza sie z surowym pruskim prawem, aniol stroz Walka, Zuriel, opowiada te wciagajaca historie opetania i odkupienia. Egzorcyzmy, satanistyczne rytualy i dramat sadowy rozgrywaja sie na tle historycznych zawirowan, poruszajac tematy wiary, walki klasowej i wiecznej bitwy miedzy dobrem a zlem. Czy Mojzesz ucieknie przed pieklem, czy tez jego grzechy skaza go - i jego syna?Pierwsza ksiazka ze serii Objawienia Zuriela laczy historyczna dokladnosc z nadprzyrodzona intryga, zglebiajac relacje miedzy Polakami, Zydami i Niemcami, opetanie demoniczne i moralnosc. Idealna dla fanow mrocznej fikcji historycznej. Pomysl: Egzorcysta spotyka Malowany Ptak.Marta, niezamezna matka w gleboko katolickim spoleczenstwie, spotyka sie z odrzuceniem ze strony swojego brutalnego ojca i pogarda spoleczenstwa. Mojzesz, juz seryjny uwodziciel z wieloma nieslubnymi dziecmi rozrzuconymi po wioskach, kontynuuje swoje kobieciarskie poczynania, nie okazujac skruchy. W miare jak maly Walek dorasta, zycie Mojzesza przybiera zlowieszczy obrot: wciagniety w tajny satanistyczny kowen, oddaje sie demonom podczas rytualu w lesie w czasie pelni ksiezyca.Opetany przez 12 demonow, na czele ktorych stoi Amartia, Mojzesz pograza sie w nieokielznanym hedonizmie. Popelnia swietokradztwa - profanuje koscioly i konsekrowane hostie, morduje rywali z kowenu. Nietypowe zjawiska terroryzuja parafie zdewastowane groby, niewytlumaczalne wypadki i brutalne zabojstwa. Kowen zmusza Mojzesza do porwania wlasnego syna, Walka, w demonicznym szale.Detektyw Theo Welsch prowadzi sledztwo, odkrywajac poszlaki wskazujace na Mojzesza.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What if Napoleon had truly won-& a new nation rose from the ashes of empire?In this gripping alternate history, the Peace of Warsaw (1812) reshapes Europe. A humbled Tsar Alexander surrenders vast territories, & the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is reborn under King Jozef Antoni Kossakowski…-with French bayonets monitoring. But fragile peace brings new dangers: Russian subversion, ethnic tensions, noble resentment, & the shadow of old betrayals.Enter Blazej Radziwill-the young "Panicz," heir to a powerful Lithuanian estate. Privately feeding intelligence to Russian agents while managing his family's lands, Blazej walks a knife's edge between loyalty & deception. When the cost of his double life becomes unbearable & a visionary mentor opens his eyes to a bolder dream, he undergoes a profound transformation.Guided by the wise Witold Tyszkiewicz & grounded by peasant leader Tadas Balciunas, Blazej turns from spy to architect of something revolutionary: a voluntary federation of seven nations-Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, & Slovakia. Drawing inspiration from the American Constitution & Swiss cantons, this Concordia promises equal representation in a bicameral Diet, local autonomy, shared defense & trade, religious freedom for all faiths, & the gradual end of serfdom.But powerful enemies-ruthless Tsarist agents like Frol Kamieniev & Sergey Karenin, conservative magnates clinging to the old order, & even internal doubts-will stop at nothing to crush the vision. Assassination attempts, political purges, secret societies, multi-ethnic negotiations, & battlefield tests of unity push Blazej & his allies to their limits.A sweeping tale of redemption, political intrigue, & audacious hope, The Federation Builders explores what happens when divided peoples choose strength through cooperation rather than conquest. Rich in historical detail yet boldly imaginative, this is alternative history at its most compelling-where personal metanoia forges a new destiny for nations.Perfect for fans of The Years of Rice & Salt, Fatherland, or 1632, this epic asks: Can a better world be built from the ruins of the old?(This is a work of fiction. While real historical figures & events anchor the story, many post-1812 developments are invented. AI assisted with the cover & parts of the writing process, but the vision, research, & narrative are the author's own.) This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A riveting historical mystery set in an alternate 1900 where the South won the Civil War In the sultry summer of 1900, New Orleans Detective Jean-Baptiste Delacroix faces the most impossible case of his career-one that will force him to choose between his badge and his brother. When a Europe…an merchant is found crucified on Andrew Jackson's statue in Jackson Square, Jean-Baptiste recognizes the elaborate staging as more than simple murder. The victim is arranged with disturbing precision, surrounded by Confederate currency and cryptic Latin phrases. As a Creole detective navigating the treacherous waters between Confederate authority and European commercial interests, Jean-Baptiste knows this killing could ignite the powder keg of tensions threatening to tear the city apart. But nothing prepares him for the truth he uncovers: his own brother Michel-once a devout Catholic seminarian-has become the instrument of a century-old vengeance. Venus, an ancient Vodoun priestess with memories stretching back to slavery, has waited nearly one hundred years to balance the scales of justice. The Delacroix family once promised freedom to her daughter, then sold her downriver to die in the cane fields. Now Venus has found the perfect weapon in Michel, transforming his grief over his wife's death into religious fanaticism, twisting Catholic devotion into justification for mass murder. As bodies multiply-each killing timed to a saint's feast day, each victim connected to New Orleans' web of corruption-Jean-Baptiste faces an agonizing choice. His investigation reveals that Michel plans to destroy St. Louis Cathedral during the city's grandest celebration, with hundreds of Confederate officials, European merchants, and innocent worshippers inside. To stop the attack, Jean-Baptiste must betray his brother. To save Michel, he must compromise everything his badge represents. Caught between the Sons of Divine Justice-Confederate extremists who have infiltrated the police department-and Venus's intricate conspiracy that manipulates all sides, Jean-Baptiste tampers with evidence, misdirecting investigations, and descends into the moral darkness he once fought against. His superiors demand results that serve political narratives. Federal investigators pursue their own ambitions. And Michel, the brother he loves, has become a stranger who speaks of divine judgment while preparing an act of terrorism. With St. Louis Day approaching and time running out, Jean-Baptiste must navigate New Orleans' shadowy world-from Marie-Claire Laveau's Botanica to Venus's bayou sanctuary, from the cathedral's ancient tunnels to the city's halls of power-searching for a way to save both his brother's soul and countless innocent lives. MURDER IN NEW ORLEANS is a richly atmospheric historical thriller that explores the impossible choices between duty and family, justice and mercy, in a city where the past never truly dies and vengeance can wait a century for the perfect moment to strike. Perfect for fans of alternate history, historical mysteries, and morally complex detective fiction set against the vivid backdrop of turn-of-the-century New Orleans-a city of saints and sinners, where three cultures collide and ancient grudges demand modern blood. Contains mature themes including violence, religious conflict, and historical references to slavery and racism. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In the villages of 1843 Prussian-occupied Poland, where faith clashes with forbidden desires, Moses Karnowski-a charming Jewish peddler-embarks on a path of seduction & sin. When he impregnates young Catholic virgin Martha Nering, their illicit union births Valentine Karnowski, a child desti…ned for a life of trials. But Moses's debauchery draws darker forces: possessed by demons, he spirals into violence, theft, & murder, terrorizing the area.As Polish Catholicism collides with rigid Prussian law, Val's guardian angel Zuriel narrates this gripping tale of possession & redemption. Exorcism, satanic rituals, & a courtroom drama unfold amid historical upheaval, exploring themes of faith, class strife, & the eternal battle between good & evil. Will Moses escape hell, or will his sins doom him-& his son?Book 1 of The Zuriel Disclosures Series blends historical accuracy with supernatural intrigue, delving into relations among Poles, Jews & Germans, demonic possession, & morality. Perfect for fans of dark historical fiction. Think: The Exorcist meets The Painted Bird. Martha, an unwed mother in a deeply Catholic society, faces rejection from her abusive father & societal scorn. Moses, already a serial seducer with multiple illegitimate children scattered across villages, plies his womanizing ways, showing no remorse. As baby Val grows, Moses's life takes a sinister turn: drawn into a secret satanic coven, he offers himself to demons during a full-moon ritual in the forest.Possessed by 12 demons led by Amartia, Moses descends into untamed hedonism. He commits sacrileges-desecrating churches & consecrated Hosts, & murdering coven rivals. Atypical phenomena terrorize the parish: vandalized graves, inexplicable accidents, & brutal killings. The coven gets Moses to kidnap his own son, Val, in a demonic frenzy.Detective Theo Welsch investigates, uncovering clues pointing to Moses. Captured after a dramatic manhunt, he escapes jail in a superhuman rage, only to seek sanctuary at the rectory. Father Marion Ceynowa, renowned exorcist, performs exorcism over two grueling days, witnessing levitations, demonic voices, fires, snakes emerging from Moses's mouth, & blows by invisible forces.Narrated by Val's guardian angel Zuriel, who knows the truth behind human events, this novel meticulously recreates 1843 rural life: peasant hardships, noble privilege, Jewish customs, Catholic devotions, & Prussian oppression. Detailed historical events, & authentic cultural practices immerse readers in a vanished world.Ultimately tried & executed despite pleas of demonic influence-dismissed by Enlightenment-era Prussian court-Moses's fate raises profound questions about free will, sin, & redemption. Martha finds employment as a maid in a noble household, & raises Val amid lingering heartache.The Possession of Moses Karnowski launches The Zuriel Disclosures Series, promising further revelations of Val's extraordinary life thru angelic eyes. A compelling fusion of historical fiction, horror, & spiritual drama that confronts the darkness within human souls while affirming faith's enduring triumph. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What if we could go back and re-make history? What if Sigismund II, the last king of Poland/Grand Duke of Lithuania, had not died childless in 1572, but had produced an heir: Casimir V? What if, carried away with zeal, he mustered the forces of European Christendom to mount a new crusade to…re-capture Constantinople, lost to the Moslem Ottomans in 1453? Meet his childhood friend and skeptical chancellor Jan Zamoyski, and Fr. Peter Skarga, SJ, who started it all with his visions. Meet the magnate Michael Radziwill, who, under cover of supporting the crusade, is working against it, with an Ottoman guarantee of setting up his own state in Moldova. Meet the 1400-pound Sultan Murad III and his confused grand vizier Ibrahim Pasha: carried away from Christian Bulgaria as a boy, turned into a janissary, and, altho secretly Christian, working against the Crusade. Journey with the vast army from Krakow, thru Chocim and Adrianople, then finally as they besiege the city's Theodosian Walls. Be present when Hagia Sophia is re-dedicated by a re-united Christendom of Catholic and Orthodox worshippers. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
