This book presents the results of the extensive excavation of a small, rural village from the period of emerging cities in upper Mesopotamia (modern northeast Syria) in the early to middle third millennium BC. Prior studies of early Near Eastern urban societies generally focused on the cities and elites, neglecting the rural component of urbanization. This research represents part of a move to rectify that imbalance. Reports on the architecture, pottery, animal bones, plant remains, and other varieties of artifacts and ecofacts enhance our understanding of the role of villages in the formation of urban societies, the economic relationship between small rural sites and urban centers, and status and economic differentiation in villages. Among the significant results are the extensive exposure of a large segment of the village area, revealing details of spatial and social organization and household economics. The predominance of large-scale grain storage and processing leads to questions of staple finance, economic relations with pastoralists, and connections to developing urban centers.

Experience the fan-favorite Broken Destiny series for the first time in one convenient collection. New York Times bestselling author Jeaniene Frost takes on you a journey where mythical secrets, otherworldly danger, and undeniable passion is just the beginning… The Beautiful Ashes Ivy has always seen things that she cannot explain. Strange things. Otherworldly things. But when her sister goes missing, Ivy discovers the truth is far worse—her hallucinations are real, and her sister is imprisoned in a realm beyond Ivy’s reach. The one person who can help her is the dangerously attractive rebel who’s bound by an ancient legacy to betray her. The Sweetest Burn Conquering a supernatural realm turned out to be easier than getting over a broken heart. But her initial victory has made Ivy a target for revenge, forcing her to reunite with the dangerous — and dangerously sexy — Adrian. Ivy isn’t sure which will be harder: finding the hallowed weapon that will repair the crumbling walls between demon and human realms, or resisting Adrian, who’s decided that come hell or high water, he will make Ivy his… The Brightest Embers Adrian’s dark lineage has made him the most powerful of his kind, yet even his incredible abilities might not be enough now. Ivy and Adrian’s scintillating bond has been tested before, but never with so much on the line. Now fate will come head-to-head against true love, and nothing they’ve endured can prepare Ivy and Adrian for the choices they’ll face… Originally published in 2014, 2017, and 2017

BOOK ONE: ROGUE DEMON They say it's better to rule in Hell than serve in Heaven... But Enzo’s not so sure anymore. Haunted by the horrors of his fall, Enzo, a demon agent of the Fel, smothers the angst of his impending damnation by indulging in vice with no regard to who it wrecks. But the dreadlord has given him a new assignment: infiltrate the enemy sect of demons known as the Unfallen and recover their captured ally, Lorcan, the alpha of Atro City’s pack. The mission goes according to plan, until he falls in love with someone he should hate. Or at the very least use and destroy. Blindsided by emotions he never thought were possible to feel, Enzo must blend in with his enemies and decide which side of the holy war he’s really on—even though he’s damned no matter what he chooses. With angelic lore inspired by Milton’s Paradise Lost and The Book of Enoch… This magical & macabre urban fantasy features a brooding, BMX-riding antihero who wants nothing to do with the forces of good unless it suits him. ~ BOOK TWO: SELFISH ANGEL Ex-skinhead and drug dealer Hewey Steps puts his sordid past behind him to begin his new life as a magic-wielding agent of the Unfallen. But Lorcan’s Pack wants revenge on his demon partner, Enzo, who still refuses to accept his rulership as archon—since waking the fallen angel’s dormant power could spell disaster for anyone who gets in his way, especially those who dare to threaten the woman he loves. Hewey and Enzo grapple with the vile sins of their past, as an insidious threat lurks in the bustling hallways at Stillwater, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike… And it’s an enemy that cannot be touched. Old habits and prejudices die hard in this heart-stopping addition to the Archon Rising trilogy. Featuring a dynamic cast of morally gray characters, thrilling action, tortured romance, and diabolic scenes reminiscent of the gritty cult-classic American History X… Delve into this horror-fantasy world today! ~ BOOK THREE: BROKEN ARCHON The enemy archon has awakened, and Enzo must take up his crown to put a stop to the looming threat infesting Atro City. But his fiercely loyal partner, Hewey, is preoccupied with his own problems after being reconnected with his troubled high-school sweetheart, as well as the racist Skeads he once fought for. And with Enzo’s wife bucking against the corruptive influence of misused fellcraft and an unlikely paramour, the morally conflicted demon is angrier than ever and more susceptible to the relentless mania induced by the use of his archon magic. Emotionally compelling, with intense gritty action and gorgeously macabre departures into Lovecraftian horror. Complete your journey into this brutal urban fantasy series today!

One by one, the guilds of New Jerusalem fall to Shadrak the Unseen and his accomplice, the poisoner Albert. But as the battle for supremacy comes to a head, Shadrak is given a new order by the mysterious Archon: kill his closest living friend, the Nameless Dwarf. The philosopher Aristodeus persuades the Archon to stay his hand, proposing instead three quests that will free Nameless from the curse of the black axe that led him to slaughter his own people. But the plan has perils of its own: a visit to the fire giant’s lair at the heart of a volcano; a daring raid on the Liche Lord’s castle in darkest Verusia; and a confrontation with the son of the Demiurgos in the depths of the Abyss. Even with the incomparable partnership of Shadrak and Nameless, the quests seem doomed to failure, and so Aristodeus tries once more to entice Deacon Shader back to the fight. But Shader is a changed man, more given to drink than the sword, and if he should discover the secret Rhiannon and Aristodeus have kept from him these past four years, the quests are sure to come to a crashing halt before they even get off the ground. Friendship, scheming, and the worst horrors imaginable combine to test the companions to the limits, and despair dark enough to corrode even the most unwavering faith awaits those not destined to return.
