Sword in hand, crouching, Auragole waited. He was still weak, had not recovered his strength after the boat wreck and the fever that had followed it. Though it was morning and the mountain air still cool, sweat trickled down his nose. He heard the methodical sound of a sword thwack-whacking the bare bushes to his left. If he waited until the soldier found him entangled in the whackle bush, his arm wouldn't be free to strike. If he stepped out into the open, he would have to kill or be killed, and he had never killed a man before. But why was he being pursued? Who considered him an enemy? No time to ponder that now. As the sound, thwack-whack, thwack-whack, came closer, Auragole decided to face his pursuer. He stepped out from behind the bush. The soldier saw him. "He's here!" he barked, signaling the men above. His opponent crouched down, holding the sword with both hands. Auragole could see the fear on his face.... Auragole hesitated, stunned that the enemy had such a human and familiar face. "Strike, Bororr, fool!" came the command from above them. Bororr lifted his sword and brought it down like a hatchet.... Author Shirley Latessa continues the exciting adventures of Auragole in Auragole of the Way, the second novel in the quartet, "Auragole's Journey."

"In a world without hope, in a land of darkness and despair, where chaos has replaced order, one boy leads a ragtag band of rebels against omnipotent forces." The forces of Chaos have defeated those of Order and recreated reality. The result is a dystopian multiverse ruled by the Dark Gods and policed by vampires who serve as their high priests. Into this Alterverse comes a heavensent African, gender-switching, interdimensional traveler who now finds himself permanently stuck in female form and tasked with the unenviable job of restoring reality. He/She must locate 17-year-old Alaric, son of the imprisoned witch Samantha Twitch and the banished demon Lucifer, and help him form a rebellion. But in this altered reality familiar faces are not who they may seem and some who had died now still live. Pandora and Cody's teenaged children Quinn and Ursula join Alaric's nascent resistance alongside the demon Asmodeus, Grand Duke of Hell Eligos, Nitrate (an emotive from the Dreamscape), Kita the kitsune, and a Kunoichi (Japanese female assassin) against overwhelming odds, as they seek not merely to change the world but the entire multiverse, and overthrow the gods themselves.

In answering the question of life’s meaning, the African perspective is only just beginning to emerge. While this is true, a critical examination of African theories of meaningfulness, the possibility of life’s meaninglessness, as well as ideas about the proper mode/mood for living with the meaninglessness of life are largely underexplored within the African philosophical tradition. This book provides several plausible accounts of meaning in/of life from an African perspective, examines the relationship between death and life’s meaningfulness, and explores the possibility of life’s meaninglessness, proposing the “philosophy of indifference” as the proper mode/mood for living with the meaninglessness of life.
