Grace Anderson believes she is an ordinary schoolgirl trapped in a small American town, until a mysterious rich businessman arrives and takes her to New York. Swept off her feet by the handsome Thomas Marsh, Grace soon falls in love. But that happiness is soon overshadowed when Thomas's true identity is revealed as the immortal Archangel Michael; who is mixing the supernatural and modern technology to change the world, bringing her into an ancient conflict with his sister Gabriel and their brothers. He reveals to Grace that they have been soul twins since humanity's creation; he has followed her reincarnations throughout the ages, and loved no other woman but her. As events unfold, Grace will be forced to make a terrible decision that will transform her life ... and the world forever. Professionally Edited by Ireland's top literary editor, Brian Langan.

Cain, after killing his brother Abel, is cursed, destined to wander the Earth as a pariah, but blessed with immortality, incredible strength and miraculous self-healing abilities to protect him from his many enemies. Pursued down through the ages by the Romans, Nazis, CIA, and many other kings and despots eager to harness his talents, he finally comes to the attention of the Illuminati, a powerful and insidious organisation run by Samuel Carson, a man who will stop at nothing including murder and the sacrifice of his daughter; whom Cain loves, to obtain ultimate power in Eden, the location of which only Cain knows and could bring about the Apocalypse.

The story is centred on revenge; two men separated by completely different backgrounds, but forced together into fatal violence; their lives becoming entwined with the destiny of the kingdom. As the search for the thief Hemlock who brutally murdered Storm's wife intensifies, both men change. Storm is a sailor by trade, a simple man ignorant of swordplay and killing. Hemlock knows no other life not dominated by violence and greed. Storm's personality alters as he becomes accustomed to the art of bloodletting, and loses sight of what he was originally fighting for. Hemlock, a man driven close to insanity by the endless killing, is finally pushed over the edge as his search for absolute power destroys everything in his wake. The kingdom and its people will bear witness to their struggle and their fate will be decided by the winner. Shane O'Neill lives in Waterford, Ireland. He is the author of four books.

Presents the case for an exciting new research program in the social sciences based on the theory of recognition developed by Axel Honneth and others in recent years. The theory provides a frame for revealing new insights about conflicts and the potential of recognition theory to guide just resolutions of these conflicts is also explored.

In the context of a new global order where the logic of the market reigns virtually unopposed, there is a clear need for original thinking that might reinvigorate a progressive political project. This collection of essays brings together the work of a number of leading scholars who are concerned to construct a convincing basis for incisive criticism today. These contributors represent the most vibrant and influential of contemporary critical perspectives: egalitarian liberalism, socialism, poststructuralism, psychoanalysis, hermeneutics and critical theory.
Assesses critically the work of Rawls, Walzer, and Habermas and presents a theory of justice that responds to two senses of pluralism. In this book, Shane O'Neill argues that the theory of justice must take seriously two dimensions of pluralism in the modern world. While it must acknowledge the plurality of individual conceptions of the good that is characteristic of every modern society, it must also reckon with the plurality of historically unique, culturally specific, political societies. O'Neill offers a distinctive perspective on an extremely significant current debate about universalism and particularism in political philosophy. Justice, he maintains, must be understood both in terms of an impartial point of view that respects differing conceptions of the good and in relation to the particular contexts in which disputes about norms and principles arise. Liberals, most notably John Rawls, have tended to privilege the former aspect of justice, while communitarians, especially Michael Walzer, have stressed the latter. O'Neill shows how Habermas's discourse ethics can overcome the limitations of these alternatives by providing theoretical tools that allow us to ground impartiality in particular contexts. This position is developed through an exploration of the complementary roles of moral and ethical discourses and an application of the theory to the political conflict in Northern Ireland. This careful and detailed philosophical argument offers a valuable critical introduction to a range of important topics, including the communitarian critique of liberalism, feminist perspectives on justice, the interpretive turn in political philosophy, the theory of communicative action, the dynamics of a discursive democracy, and the politics of recognition.
