As One Devil to Another is an astonishing debut work that C. S. Lewis’s biographer and foremost Lewis authority Walter Hooper calls “a stunning achievement, the finest example of the genre of diabolical correspondence to appear since this genre was popularized by C. S. Lewis.” Enter into this chilling and diabolical tale, one that reveals the very tricks and strategies of Hell. Through a series of letters between devils created by Platt, senior devil Slashreap trains his young protégé, Scardagger, to win an individual soul away from Heaven and into their clutches. As the devils plot their way to triumph, they reveal the spiritual dangers and risks we face in today’s society. Their frighteningly accurate perspective on issues such as contemporary technology and sexual mores is interwoven with timeless matters such as the power of prayer, the purpose of suffering, and the promises held out by Heaven . . . and Hell. Destined to become a modern classic, As One Devil to Another is a brilliantly written, deeply unsettling perspective on twenty-first-century society . . . a glimpse of ourselves through the eyes of those who have embraced their underworldly existence.

A brilliant sequel to Ben-Hur -- a colourful, compelling tale of love, ambition, and faith, set in ancient Rome. In the original novel of Ben-Hur, Messala is seriously injured in a chariot race with his boyhood friend, Ben-Hur -- who had been imprisoned, based in part on Messala's mistaken accusation that he had tried to assassinate the Roman procuator of Judaea. Now, in this sequel by Lois Scouten -- complete with another chariot race in a harrowing incident of road rage -- we follow Messala, witnessing the collapse of his once-passionate romance with Iras the Egyptian, his subsequent journey to health, his fluctuating fortunes in Roman society, and his attraction to various Roman beauties before he finds marital contentment in a new love. And we experience the tension Messala feels between loyalty to his own Roman heritage and his growing interest in the new religion of Christianity.

Meet Jenny T. Partridge (and please, don’t even start with the pear tree jokes), founder of Ogden, Utah’s premier school for budding prima—and not-so-prima—ballerinas. For Jenny, dealing with difficult stage mothers is business as usual . . . until murder cuts in. The Jenny T. Partridge Dance Academy barely keeps its fearless leader in bologna sandwiches and Häagen Dazs, but it’s passion that motivates Jenny . . . until tragedy trips her up. Sandra Epstein, obnoxious mother of Jenny’s most talented student, has met her maker—courtesy of poisoned cookie dough purchased through the Academy’s fundraiser. Even scarier than pushy moms and tights-wetting tots is being on the wrong end of a murder investigation, as Jenny learns when two über-hot investigators—not to mention a pair of besotted missionaries and Aunt Vi, Gossip Queen of Utah—start keeping a very close eye on her. Now, as the Academy’s much-anticipated production of The Nutcracker draws near, Jenny’s dancing as fast as she can to clear her name.
