Origin Of Darkness Daeva 2

The traitors within Rachat have been exposed, and with the city's leadership faltering, a change is on the horizon--a shift in beliefs the vampires hope will signal the start of acceptance toward their kind. For Ash, a former-soldier in the Silver Dawn's war of hate, these adjustments are more than personal.As he comes to terms with all he has lost, Ash must confront the demons of his past and visions of darkness now invading his sleep. When the nightmares manifest in the real world, he discovers there's more to the dreams than he would like to believe.Now Ash must make a choice. But how far will he go to keep those he cares about from harm? And can a lie truly shield the one he loves, or is it merely to protect himself?

This well-balanced reference on ancient Persia demonstrates the region's contributions to the growth and development of human civilization from the 7th century BCE through the fall of the Persian Sasanian Empire in 651CE. Knowledge of ancient Persia is often gleaned from the writings of the ancient Greeks and Romans—two civilizations that viewed the Persians as enemies. This one-of-a-kind reference provides unbiased coverage of the cultural history of the Persian Empire, examining the Median, Achaemenid, Parthian, Kushan, and Sasanian dynasties and tracing the development and maturation of Iranian societies during a period of nearly 1,500 years. As one of the most comprehensive studies on the topic, this historical overview explores the region's rich past while providing insight into the cultures and civilizations the Persians came to rule and influence. Using primary sources written and inscribed by the ancient Persians themselves, the encyclopedia studies the pre-Islamic civilizations of Iran in the Middle East, the Caucasus, Central Asia, and the Indian subcontinent. Incorporating contributions from scholars who discuss the rise and fall of various Persian dynasties, the work offers some 180 entries that cover such topics as religion, royal nobility, the caste system, and political assassinations. The content offers perspectives from a variety of disciplines—from anthropology to archaeology, geography, and art history, among other areas.
