Aus dem Inhalt der Ausgabe: Mille Petrozza und morbide Meister aus Wien: Wer dachte, die Festivalsaison sei schon wild gewesen, der sollte sich warm anziehen. Die neue Legacy-Ausgabe #158 liefert auf satten 14 Seiten eine umfassende und detaillierte Titelstory zu Mille Petrozza, seines Zeichens Mastermind hinter Kreator – und noch viel mehr! Im Mittelpunkt: Ein großes, exklusives Interview mit dem Thrash-Mastermind über Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und zwei brandaktuelle Herzensprojekte – die Kinodokumentation „Hate & Hope“ sowie das autobiografische Buch „Your Heaven, My Hell“. Ergänzt wird das lange Gespräch durch Interviews mit Buchautor Torsten Groß, Filmregisseurin Cordula Kablitz-Post sowie – für Thrash-Fans besonders relevant – eine exklusive Tribute-CD mit elf der eindrucksvollsten Kreator-Coverversionen von Szenegrößen aus aller Welt: Napalm Death, Enthroned, Phantom Corporation, Necrodeath und viele mehr geben sich die Klinke in die Hand. Ein zweites Highlight: das tiefgehende Special zu den legendären österreichischen Death-Metallern Pungent Stench. In einem seltenen, ausführlichen Gespräch öffnet Rector Stench die Türen zu seinem Totem-Laden in Wien und gewährt ebenso persönliche wie bizarre Einblicke in die düstere Historie der Band. Ergänzt wird das Special durch ein separates Interview mit Martin sowie eine ausführliche Analyse der zentralen Werke der Skandal-Truppe – verstörend und faszinierend zugleich! Natürlich war das Legacy-Team auch in diesem Sommer wieder auf sämtlichen großen Schlachtfeldern der Szene unterwegs – vom Party.San über das Summer Breeze bis hin zum Masters Of Rock. Dank einer eindrucksvollen Vor-Ort-Präsenz gibt es umfangreiche Festival-Reports, Hintergrundinfos und jede Menge Bilder. Und das war nur der Anfang: Auch auf den Social-Media-Kanälen von Legacy tobt die Nachlese – mit noch mehr Eindrücken von weiteren Open-Airs, Clubshows und Überraschungsauftritten. Im Soundcheck schoben sich dieses Mal Novembers Doom mit einem melancholischen Meisterwerk an die Spitze. Sänger Paul Kuhr bezeichnet das Album im Interview als „die Vertonung meines kaputten Hirns“ – und trifft damit genau den Ton eines Werks, das tief unter die Haut geht. Dicht gefolgt von Scorpion Milk, dem neuen Projekt von Mat McNerney, der mit dystopischem Post-Punk und zynischer Poesie einen ganz eigenen Weg beschreitet.

Fall in love with the charming and subversive new rom-com from Falon Ballard! 'Laugh-out-loud funny, heartwarming . . . I couldn't put Change of Heart down. I want to live in Heart Springs, I want Cam Andrews in my corner, and I want this story to be adapted into an actual Hallmark movie' Sarah Hogle 'Laugh out loud funny and romantic beyond the scope of space and time, Change of Heart is another total winner from Falon Ballard. I have never met a heroine I've cheered for so hard' Annabel Monaghan 'The perfect blend of wit and romance. I love my rom coms with a slice of magical realism and Change of Heart delivers in spades. Imagine Pleasantville and The Hating Game had a book baby. I adored this book; Falon Ballard at her best' Sophie Cousens ______________________________ Campbell Andrews despises precisely three things in life: incompetence, lateness, and love stories. Having made partner at her law firm at thirty-four, she has no time for anything - or anyone - else. Especially after yet another disastrous first date. But then she wakes up in Heart Springs - her own personal hell. The good news? She's not dead. She's just been magically transported to a small town straight out of the Hallmark channel, complete with a meddling mayor, seasonal festivals, friendly townsfolk . . . and Ben, her date from the night before. Cam really doesn't have time for this, but in order to make it back to her real life, she must fulfil three tasks: find a career she's passionate about, help the community, and find true love. It really seems impossible. But stuck in this pastel purgatory and forced to give Ben another chance, she starts to realise that maybe anything's possible with a change of heart . . . ______________________________ 'Change of Heart is the badass feminist romcom that fans of Pleasantville and The Stepford Wives will love. It's funny, sharp, and a slow burn that will keep you on the edge of your seat' Erin La Rosa 'Full of her signature charm, steam, and laugh-out-loud moments, Falon Ballard's newest fully delivers. Change of Heart is perfect for anyone who has ever wanted to see the big-city Hallmark villain rewrite the narrative and become the unexpected heroine of her own story. I devoured this in a single, delicious sitting!' Holly James

Part elegy, part true crime story, this memoir-in-verse from the author of the award-winning The Argonauts expands the notion of how we tell stories and what form those stories take through the story of a murdered woman and the mystery surrounding her last hours. Jane tells the spectral story of the life and death of Maggie Nelson’s aunt Jane, who was murdered in 1969 while a first-year law student at the University of Michigan. Though officially unsolved, Jane’s murder was apparently the third in a series of seven brutal rape-murders in the area between 1967 and 1969. Nelson was born a few years after Jane’s death, and the narrative is suffused with the long shadow her murder cast over both the family and her psyche. Exploring the nature of this haunting incident via a collage of poetry, prose, dream-accounts, and documentary sources, including local and national newspapers, related “true crime” books such as The Michigan Murders and Killer Among Us, and fragments from Jane’s own diaries written when she was 13 and 21, its eight sections cover Jane’s childhood and early adulthood, her murder and its investigation, the direct and diffuse effect of her death on Nelson’s girlhood and sisterhood, and a trip to Michigan Nelson took with her mother (Jane’s sister) to retrace the path of Jane’s final hours. Each piece in Jane has its own form, and the movement from each piece to the next—along with the white space that surrounds each fragment—serve as important fissures, disrupting the tabloid, “page-turner” quality of the story, and eventually returning the reader to deeper questions about girlhood, empathy, identification, and the essentially unknowable aspects of another’s life and death. Equal parts a elegy, memoir, detective story, meditation on violence (and serial, sexual violence in particular), and conversation between the living and the dead, Jane’s powerful and disturbing subject matter, combined with its innovations in genre, shows its readers what poetry is capable of—what kind of stories it can tell, and how it can tell them.

The brilliant #1 New York Times bestseller Named a best book of 2020 by The New York Times, The Washington Post, TIME, The Guardian, and many more With The Mirror & the Light, Hilary Mantel brings to a triumphant close the trilogy she began with her peerless, Booker Prize-winning novels, Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies. She traces the final years of Thomas Cromwell, the boy from nowhere who climbs to the heights of power, offering a defining portrait of predator and prey, of a ferocious contest between present and past, between royal will and a common man's vision: of a modern nation making itself through conflict, passion and courage. The story begins in May 1536: Anne Boleyn is dead, decapitated in the space of a heartbeat by a hired French executioner. As her remains are bundled into oblivion, Cromwell breakfasts with the victors. The blacksmith's son from Putney emerges from the spring's bloodbath to continue his climb to power and wealth, while his formidable master, Henry VIII, settles to short-lived happiness with his third queen, Jane Seymour. Cromwell, a man with only his wits to rely on, has no great family to back him, no private army. Despite rebellion at home, traitors plotting abroad and the threat of invasion testing Henry's regime to the breaking point, Cromwell's robust imagination sees a new country in the mirror of the future. All of England lies at his feet, ripe for innovation and religious reform. But as fortune's wheel turns, Cromwell's enemies are gathering in the shadows. The inevitable question remains: how long can anyone survive under Henry's cruel and capricious gaze? Eagerly awaited and eight years in the making, The Mirror & the Light completes Cromwell's journey from self-made man to one of the most feared, influential figures of his time. Portrayed by Mantel with pathos and terrific energy, Cromwell is as complex as he is unforgettable: a politician and a fixer, a husband and a father, a man who both defied and defined his age.

This discounted ebook bundle includes The First Formic War Trilogy by bestselling authors Orson Scott Card and Aaron Johnston: Earth Unaware, Earth Afire, Earth Awakens One hundred years before Ender Wiggin decisively defeated the alien formics in Ender's Game. A pulse-pounding tale of first contact gone horribly wrong. Ender's Game opens in the last desperate days of Earth's war against the implacable insectoid aliens. We are told early on that the Battle School is training generals for the Third Formic War - the war that will end the war; will save the Earth; will finally defeat the Buggers. This is the story of the First Formic Wars, back when humans thought they were alone in the galaxy. Humanity was slowly making their way out from Earth to the planets and asteroids of the Solar System, exploring and mining and founding colonies. Then a ship's telescopes pick up a fast-moving object coming in-system... Earth Unaware - When mining ship El Cavador's telescopes pick up a fast-moving object coming in-system, it's hard to know what to make of it. It's massive and moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light. But the ship has other problems. Their systems are old and failing. Worrying about a distant object that might or might not be an alien ship seems...not important. Earth Afire - Victor Delgado beat the alien ship to Earth, but not soon enough to convince skeptical governments that there was a threat. That is, until space stations and ships and colonies went up in sudden flame. And when that happened, only Mazer Rackham and the Mobile Operations Police could organize in time to meet the threat. Earth Awakens - Politics slowed the response on Earth, and on Luna, corporate power struggles seemed more urgent than distant deaths. It's up to Mazer Rackham's squad in China, who have developed a method to destroy the alien landers one by one; and Lem Jukes and his crew on the Moon, who may have the key to destroying the Formic mother ship in orbit.

Step into a faith that isn't afraid of tough questions. In a culture that often views faith with skepticism, it is natural to wrestle with hard questions and even doubts about God. Does he actually exist? Is the Bible historically accurate? Is there credible evidence that Jesus was the Son of God and rose from the dead? You aren't alone in wanting to feel confident in your convictions. Just like every Christian throughout history, you want to know that your faith rests on a solid foundation of truth. The Demolishing Doubt Bible Study is designed to walk alongside you and provide this reassurance. Through five video sessions, Cliffe and Stuart Knechtle, founders of the Give Me an Answer ministry and YouTube channel, discuss the toughest topics facing believers today. As a companion to those sessions, this study guide provides the space you need to process these arguments personally and practically. By working through these lessons, you will not only strengthen your own understanding and faith but will also gain the tools to engage your friends, family, and community in meaningful, life-changing dialogue. In this rational exploration of the Christian faith, the Knechtles explore such topics as: The arguments for God's existence: How the universe's existence, its intricate design, and the presence of moral values point toward a transcendent Creator. The reliability of the Gospels: How the consistency, style, archaeological, and manuscript evidence of the New Testament points to its reliability--and how archaeological findings and external historical sources buttress the case for the reliability of the Gospel narratives The claims Jesus made about himself: How the evidence of Jesus' miracles and moral teachings and the transformative impact his resurrection had on his followers culminates in a powerful case for Jesus being an ethical genius and the divine Son of God The importance of faith: Why faith is not in conflict with reason but is actually essential for a complete understanding of the truth--and why skepticism can actually be healthy. The response of our lives: How the impact Jesus' teachings have on our consciences--along with the lifestyle benefits we received of forgiveness, happiness, gratitude, perseverance, and self-control when we choose to follow those teachings--points to the truth of the Gospel Demolishing Doubt is an invitation to explore the big questions of life with a reasoned and open heart. Whether you are seeking answers, yearning for truth, or looking to deepen your faith, this study will provide a robust and thoughtful exploration of the intersection of faith and reason. Sessions: What Is the Evidence for God? Session one equips participants to overcome doubt by exploring evidence for God through the cosmological, teleological (design), moral, and problem-of-evil arguments, supported by Scripture, science, and personal reflection. Are the Gospels Historically Reliable? The second session explores compelling evidence--eyewitness testimony, early and abundant manuscript support, archaeological confirmation, and non-Christian historical sources--that the Gospels are historically reliable and trustworthy accounts of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. Is The Evidence About Jesus Trustworthy? Session three equips readers to evaluate the trustworthiness of the Gospel accounts by examining historical reliability, Jesus' explicit claims to divinity, supporting evidence through miracles and fulfilled prophecy, and the unique Christian message of salvation by grace. Did Jesus Really Rise From the Dead? Session Four investigates the historical evidence for Jesus' resurrection--focusing on the empty tomb, eyewitness testimony, transformed disciples, and the failure of alternative explanations--and highlights how the resurrection anchors Christian faith with hope, purpose, and the promise of eternal life.

BOOK THREE IN THE COLLABORATION BETWEEN the creator of the multiple New York Times best-selling Monster Hunter series Larry Correia and the best-selling science fiction author Mike Kupari. The Dead Six series is an inventive and action-packed military adventure series with a touch of conspiracy and big dollop of descriptive firepower! Europe has spiraled into chaos. A conspiracy years in the making combined with general unrest lead to upheaval and revolution. In the midst of the murderous disorder, mercenary Michael Valentine is in Europe with a small team of his Exodus personnel trying to track down the evil and highly dangerous Katarina Montalban. She has initiated a mysterious plot to do away with those who stand between her and ultimate power. The team is on their own, with few friends, few resources—and racing against the clock. Both Valentine and Lorenzo will have to risk some dangerous alliances if they're to succeed. Meanwhile, Valentine’s current friend, one-time enemy, and sometime partner Hector Lorenzo finds himself in a dungeon owned by Asian drug lord Sala Jihan. He must make a deal that may lead him to cross paths with Valentine again. If two of the most effective killers in existence hunt, even the pandemonium in Europe may be just the first act in an orgy of destruction.
