Slaying demons is nothing compared to the Terrible Twos... In between demon patrols and teaching self-defense classes to the local moms, Demon Hunter Kate Connor has to deal with a teenage daughter gung-ho on being a demon slayer in training, and a toddler son entering a tantrum phase that rivals anything from the pits of hell. To make matters worse, her husband Stuart has learned of her secret life and has been smothering her with attention. Not such a bad thing if dabbling in the demon worlds wasn't so deadly....

Relying on a wealth of data, Goklany shows how innovation, increases in affluence, and key institutions have combined to address environmental degradation that sometimes results from growth. The evidence on the use of cropland, trends in air pollution, and diverse experiences in water usage counters the gloomy outlook of some environmentalists. Goklany explains why the state of the world is improving and offers a realistic assessment of the sustainability of the human enterprise, setting priorities for dealing with such challenges as climate change.

Merezhkovsky's bold claim that "all Russian literature is, to a certain degree, a struggle with the temptation of demonism" is undoubtedly justified. And yet, despite its evident centrality to Russian culture, the unique and fascinating phenomenon of Russian literary demonism has so far received little critical attention. This substantial collection fills the gap. A comprehensive analytical introduction by the editor is follwed by a series of fourteen essays, written by eminent scholars in their fields. The first part explores the main shaping contexts of literary demonism: the Russian Orthodox and folk tradition, the demonization of historical figures, and views of art as intrinsically demonic. The second part traces the development of a literary tradition of demonism in the works of authors ranging from Pushkin and Lermontov, Gogol and Dostoevsky, through to the poets and prose writers of modernism (including Blok, Akhmatova, Bely, Sologub, Rozanov, Zamiatin), and through to the end of the 20th century.

DEMONIC AI The face... So human, yet not human, the face of an old woman, man...monster. It haunted me, a demon reaching out, looking out into the world beyond cyberspace, beyond printed circuits. Buried in the background of art generated by "Artificial Intelligence," was the visage of evil, taunting me with the mystery of its true nature. For a rational mind like mine, it was absurd, but ultimately, undeniable. It had to be living in the software, in the magical machines. But I was alone in the "real" world. Nobody would believe me, because demons aren't real (a sentiment I shared) and yet here was one, gazing into me. It left a trail through the digital highways of its reality, and I was bound to follow, to confirm its existence, and destroy it if I could. But I'm an academic, not a mystic. Until now, I never thought gods were real. How could a man like me fight the devil? From David V. Stewart, author of Eyes in the Walls, Voices of the Void, and The Wasting Desert comes a horror tale born of born of our modern dystopia and the cosmic terror of H.P. Lovecraft.

Sparks fly between a playboy prince and an idealistic lawyer, but when the demands of the throne call, can they get a fairy tale ending? Prince Leopold of Avelle-am-see is destined to rule his small European country. But he doesn’t want to. His entire life, Leopold has rebelled against the inevitable, gaining a reputation in Europe as a bad boy royal with a chip on his shoulder. Skye Porter jams on researching complex legal issues, but with her lifelong speech impairment, she’s happy to pass the briefs off to another lawyer to argue. Just the idea of being in the spotlight makes her cringe. Two years ago, she dodged a bullet when her intense college fling with charismatic Leo ended when the bastard ghosted her. At the time, she’d had no idea he was a prince, or she never would have fallen so hard. Now Leo is back, and the chemistry between them sparks just as hot. With his promise of secrecy, Skye surrenders to one more wild night. But when the press finds them together, Skye is tossed into a nightmare of tabloid photos, graphic memes, and a life in the public eye. Can a reluctant royal and the girl next door find their happily ever after?

There are a million reasons why I need to stop thinking about Taylor D'Angelo naked. She's too young for me, for starters. She's too ambitious. She's my job. Romance was the last thing on my mind when I agreed to look into her stalker as a favor. Now, she's all I can think about--and in every position I can imagine. But I'm not the only one obsessing, and the threats against her are intensifying along with our connection. If I give in, if I let our bodies take over, it could draw her stalker out. Our passion could save her. Or it could destroy us both.
