Storybook characters collide in this trilogy of twisted fairy tales from New York Times bestselling author James Riley, set in the world of his popular Half Upon a Time series and now together in one paperback boxed set! Five and a half feet might seem pretty tall for a twelve-year-old, but it's quite small when your parents are giants. As a human-sized giant in a world where humans and giants hate each other, Lena has never felt accepted for who she is. But when she runs away to the Cursed City hoping to find a place to belong among its enchanted inhabitants, she instead finds an even bigger problem. The Golden King and his Faceless army are spreading shadow magic across land, and his next target is the Cursed City. If the Last Knight is defeated, the only ones standing in the way of the king's conquest will be Lena, her talking cat Rufus, new genie-in-training (with a questionable moral compass) Jin, and an arrogant prince who's tiny even by human standards.

Although the archaeological evidence indicates a prosperous and thriving Galilee in the early first century CE, the Gospel texts suggest a society under stress, where the rich were flourishing at the expense of the poor. In this multi-disciplinary study, Rosemary Margaret Luff contributes to current debates concerning the pressures on early first-century Palestinian Jews, particularly with reference to socio-economic and religious issues. She examines Jesus within his Jewish environment in order to understand why he rose to prominence when he did, and what motivated him to persevere with his mission. Luff's study includes six carefully-constructed essays that examine Early Christian texts against the wider background of late Second Temple Judaic literature, together with the material evidence of Galilee and Judea (Jerusalem). Synthesizing a wide range of archaeological and textual data for the first time, she offers new insights into the depth of social discontent and its role in the r
