La prédestination n’est pas un concept théologique réservé aux calvinistes. Tous les croyants qui étudient sérieusement la Parole devraient s’intéresser à cette doctrine biblique. Dans ce livre, R. C. Sproul soutient que la doctrine de la prédestination ne crée pas une image fantaisiste ou malveillante de Dieu, mais dresse plutôt le portrait d’un Dieu aimant qui assure la rédemption d’une humanité fondamentalement corrompue. L'auteur nous rappelle que les voies de Dieu, bien que mystérieuses, ne se contredisent pas.

Librarian Sylvia Ashe knows nothing about her past, having grown up without a father and a mother who refused to discuss him. When she stumbles upon a diary that suggests she's descended from magicians, she's skeptical. After all, magicians are special, and she's just an ordinary woman who loves books. She seeks answers from a member of the most prominent family of magicians, but she quickly learns that finding the truth won't be easy, especially when he turns out to be as artless as her, and more compelling and dangerous than books.

Alternate history—1121 AD. The last free warbands of the Norse are scattered in the forests and hills of central Sweden. Denmark has fallen, consumed by the crusades, coerced into loyalty to foreign lords. Norway has bent the knee, making peace once their mighty king was slain.

Tacitus, who condemns the depravity of these rulers, which he saw as proof of the corrupting force of absolute power, writes caustically of the brutal and lecherous Tiberius, the weak and cuckolded Claudius, and "the artist" Nero.

The Annals also provides a vivid account of the violent suppression of the revolt led by Boudicca in Britain, the great fire of Rome under Nero, and the subsequent bloody persecution of the Christians.
