The Faceless Ones

5.0 (4)

The third bone-breaking, belly-busting adventure in the series that puts the "funny" back in...um...funny series. That didn't really work, did it?If you've read the previous Skulduggery books then you know what the Faceless Ones are – and if you know what the Faceless Ones are, then you can probably take a wild guess that things in this book are going to get AWFULLY sticky for our skeletal hero and his young sidekick. If you haven't read the previous Skulduggery books then what are you doing reading this? Go and read them right now, so that you know what all that stuff in the previous paragraph was about. Done? Good. So now you're on tenterhooks too, desperately awaiting the answers to all your questions, and instead you're going to have to wait to read the book. Sorry about that.

The end of the world

0.0 (0)

As the end of the twentieth century approaches, anxiety about the possible end of the world is becoming more evident in literature, popular culture, and public discourse. In this timely book, Ulrich Kortner addresses this issue of apocalyptic anxiety by offering a theological and philosophical evaluation of the apocalyptic. In particular, Kortner looks at how theology, responding in pastoral sensitivity, should deal with the fears present in this age of anxiety. Kortner. Concludes that real meaning and hope for the world is possible only after the world's inhabitants deal constructively with the stark reality of the world's end. This book should be read by anyone interested in the theological and philosophical aspects of apocalypticism.
