Into the Heart of Middle-Earth: Exploring Faith and Fellowship in J. R. R. Tolkien’s the Lord of the Rings
Are you quite ready for a new adventure?
Into the Heart of Middle-earth is a spiritual companion to The Lord of the Rings–an invitation to journey through J. R. R. Tolkien’s epic tale with fresh eyes and a faithful heart. Written by Kaitlyn Facista, creator of the beloved Tea with Tolkien community, this book guides readers through Frodo and Sam’s perilous quest, revealing the practical and spiritual treasures hidden beneath the leaves of Lothlórien and along the weary miles of the road, and illuminating the eternal truths that give life and meaning to their journey.
Drawing from years of study and Tolkien’s own letters, Facista has helped thousands of readers explore the Catholic heart of Middle-earth. Like the Fellowship of the Ring itself, this book offers companionship for the road ahead–whether you’re visiting Middle-earth for the first time or returning as a seasoned traveler.
Few stories have captured the imagination quite like Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings–a timeless tale of courage, fellowship, and hope. From the green hills of the Shire to the shadowy fires of Mount Doom, generations of readers have felt the mysterious pull of something greater at work in Middle-earth. Tolkien himself spoke of “that one ever-present Person who is never absent and never named”–a divine providence so seamlessly woven into his narrative that readers of every background sense its power.
Though Tolkien did not write The Lord of the Rings as a Christian allegory, his Catholic faith provided a foundation–shaping a world rich with spiritual truth and moral beauty. Great stories like this do more than entertain–they awaken us. They help us discover deeper meaning and purpose in our own lives.
With Facista as your guide, journey alongside heroes of every kind–hobbits and kings, shieldmaidens and wizards–as you explore
- the values and themes that make Middle-earth a deeply human–and profoundly Christian–story world;
- the habits of excellence that drive Tolkien’s characters toward virtue;
- spiritual insights from saints and biblical figures who influenced Tolkien, such as St. Thérèse of Lisieux’s “Little Way” and the hospitality of St. Benedict;
- practical ways to weave the lessons of the Fellowship into your own life, strengthening your soul for the long road of faith.
Throughout the journey, you’ll discover how fellowship, humility, and hope are embodied in heroes both great and small–from Sam’s steadfast loyalty and Éowyn’s bold courage to Aragorn’s sacrificial kingship–and how these same virtues can shape your own path.
Join the adventure. Let Tolkien’s world transform the way you see your own–and return from the journey altogether changed.

‘A masterpiece’ – Elaine Feeney
‘A fierce, glorious sting of a novel’ – Lauren GroffOut of money and with little to show for his art school education, John-Calum Macleod takes the ferry home to the island of Harris to find that not much has changed except for him. In the windswept croft where he grew up, Cal resumes his old life, caught between the two poles of his childhood: his father John, a sheep farmer, weaver, and pillar of their local Presbyterian church, and his Glaswegian grandmother Ella, who has kept a faltering peace with her son-in-law for decades.
While Cal wonders if any lonely men might be found on the barren hillsides of home, John is dismayed by his son’s long hair and how he seems unwilling to be Saved. As the seasons pass, everything is poised to change as the threads holding together the fragile community become increasingly entangled.
John of John is the heartbreaking story of a young man’s return home and how the bonds of family life are torn by the weight of expectation. It confirms Douglas Stuart as one of the great British writers at work today.

Jolted: Why We Quit, When to Stay, and Why It Matters
‘A master class’
― Adam Grant‘An essential guide’
― Annie DukeThe new science of why we quit, whether we should, and how to make the right choices for our work and lives, by the organizational psychologist who predicted the Great Resignation
Most of us are just one event away from leaving our job. Conventional wisdom and lists of the “top reasons people quit their jobs” would have us believe that people quit when the toxic elements of their jobs grow too big or when they spot a better professional opportunity. But that’s only half the story. In reality, quitting is often triggered by a single event, inside or outside our jobs, that stops us in our tracks and causes us to rethink our relationship with work.
These events are what organizational psychologist Anthony Klotz calls “jolts,” and they are the most underacknowledged realities in our work lives today. Jolts represent pivotal moments in our careers, and yet all too often, we respond to them in ways that harm our well-being and success. In Jolted, Klotz breaks down the different types of jolts we encounter and provides a road map to help us navigate them in ways that improve, rather than derail, our pursuit of the good life through our work.

Kill Dick
ACCLAIMED AUTHOR OF FOURTEEN STORIES, NONE OF THEM ARE YOURS, CO-WRITER OF EILEEN
RECIPIENT OF PRESTIGIOUS RONALD SUKENICK INNOVATIVE FICTION PRIZE AND JOAN SCOTT MEMORIAL FICTION AWARD
“If this book were any better I’d cut my own head off.”–Ottessa Moshfegh
“Kill Dick is a fever dream.”–Harriet Armstrong, author of To Rest Our Minds and Bodies
A fever dream, Kill Dick is a literary thriller that plunges into the chaos of Los Angeles where addiction, privilege, and corruption combust.
At nineteen, Susie Vogelman should be coasting: she’s an NYU dropout with no responsibilities, endless prescription pills, and a Brentwood estate to waste away in. But Los Angeles has other plans. A string of brutal murders targeting addicts spreads through the city, and Susie’s ivory tower begins to crumble. The headlines point too close to home: her father’s ties to an opioid empire, a sinister secret society, and her own complicity in the systems holding it all together.
Then there’s Peter Holiday, a disgraced professor running a rehab scam so audacious it’s almost admirable. When their lives collide, Susie and Peter are dragged into a web of privilege, corruption, and violence, where every escape leads deeper into the rot.
Dark, satirical, and razor-sharp, Kill Dick is a modern literary thriller that unflinchingly dissects wealth, exploitation, and the perilous line between survival and self-destruction.

King Is Coming: It’s Time to Prepare for the Return of Christ
Bestselling author John Bevere challenges Christians to take a fresh and honest look at one of the most often misunderstood and avoided truths of the Christian faith—the second coming of Jesus. Through personal testimony, biblical accuracy, and practical guidance, readers will be inspired to live a life of spiritual vigilance as they prepare for the glorious return of our King.
If Jesus were to return tomorrow, would you be ready?
In The King Is Coming, John Bevere discusses why the Second Coming is both relevant and critical for the Christian faith. Other than salvation, it’s the second most discussed topic both in the New Testament and by early church fathers in the first three centuries. More than a book about prophecy, this life-changing guide will help believers live fully prepared for Christ’s return while transforming the way we love, serve, and glorify God.
Bevere recounts his personal shift from avoiding eschatology to fully recognizing its significance. Witnessing the misuse and division caused by End Time teachings initially led him away from the topic, but through the Holy Spirit’s guidance and a deeper study of Scripture, Bevere’s heart and life were transformed. Through extensive references to prophetic Scriptures, the book explores many of the over three-hundred New Testament mentions of Jesus’ return, providing a foundation that will help readers:
- Live in awe of the Creator of the universe who holds time in His hands.
- Grow in holiness, compassion, purpose, and gain a closer relationship with God.
- Live with an eternal outlook, inspiring a sense of hope, urgency, and mission.
- Avoid division by focusing on the transformative power of our reigning King.
- Discover an eschatology that replaces fear and alarmism with true hope.
Through personal testimonies and a close examination of Scripture, John offers readers spiritual truths, insight, encouragement, and practical steps to develop a readiness shaped by faith and obedience. And as with The Awe of God, each chapter will close with his 5 P’s: Passage, Point, Ponder, Prayer, and Profession.
The King Is Coming is both a wake-up call, faith builder, and a source of hope for Christian men and women seeking to deepen their relationship with Christ and prepare for His glorious return.

Liturgies of the Wild: Myths that Make Us
From “one of the greatest storytellers we have” (Robert Bly), an urgent invitation to allow the oldest stories ― and the Greatest Story ― to reshape our own. There’s an old Irish belief that if you aren’t wrapped in a cloak of story you will be unprepared for what the world will hurl at you. You remain adolescent at just the moment a culture worth its salt requires you to become a real, grown, human being. In Liturgies of the Wild, acclaimed mythographer, storyteller and Christian thinker Martin Shaw argues that we live in a myth-impoverished age and that such poverty has left us vulnerable to stories that may not wish us well. Drawing on the “ancient technologies” of myths and initiatory rites, Shaw provides a road to wholeness, maturity and connection. He teaches us to read a myth the way it wants to be read; provides vivid retellings of tales powerful enough to carry you through life’s travails; and shows you how to gather and reshape your own thrown-away stories. Most vividly, he shares how these ancient technologies led him―unexpectedly―to Christ, “the True Myth,” by way of a thirty-year journey and a 101-night vigil in a Dartmoor forest. Combining scholarly erudition with nimble storytelling in the tradition of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, Liturgies of the Wild is a thrilling counsel of resistance and delight in the face of many modern monsters.Read more

Made in America: The dark history that led to Donald Trump
Trump’s second term, even more than his first, is often called ‘unprecedented’. But history shows that Trump and his policies are as American as apple pie…
‘A well argued and elegant answer to the question, how did America get to this place? … The ideal antidote to the coarseness of the times.’ Justin Webb, presenter of Americast
‘Pithy, entertaining and informative . . . Stourton makes a persuasive case that Trump is a logical outcome of American history’ Guardian
Much of what Donald Trump does seems maverick and even mad. His actions and policy pronouncements are a stark rupture from the American style of leadership that we have lived with all our lives. But whether we like them or not, his trade tariffs, his determination to deport tens of thousands of people, and his apparent contempt for the rule of law are deeply rooted in American history.
Since Donald Trump took office plenty of people – on both sides of the Atlantic – have argued that he will destroy his country’s democracy. Made in America shows how the ideal of liberty has been tested in past generations, from the first intolerant Pilgrims to the brutal invasion of Mexico, revealing the dark side of the American Dream in order to offer urgent lessons to our turbulent present.

Maintenance of Everything: Part One: 1
The first in-depth exploration of maintenance—and a powerful argument for its civilizational importance—from the author of How Buildings Learn and creator of the Whole Earth Catalog.Maintenance is what keeps everything going. It’s what keeps life going. Yet it’s also easy to shirk or defer—until the thing breaks, the system falters, and everything stops. The apparent paradox is profound: Maintenance is absolutely necessary and maintenance is optional.
The first in a multi-volume work, Maintenance: Of Everything, Part One offers a comprehensive overview of the civilizational importance of maintenance. The book begins with a dramatic contest of maintenance styles under life-critical conditions: the Golden Globe around-the-world solo sailboat race of 1968. It goes on to explore the insights that can be gleaned from vehicle maintenance, from the zeal of motorcycle maintainers to the maintenance philosophies that fought for dominance of the auto industry to the state of electric vehicle manufacturing today, with absorbing detours into the evolution of precision in manufacturing, the enduring importance of manuals, sustainment in the military, and the never-ending battle against corrosion.
Maintenance: Of Everything is a wide-ranging and provocative call to expand what we mean by “maintenance”—not just the tiresome preventative tasks but the whole grand process of keeping a thing going. It invites us to understand not only the profound impact maintenance has on our daily lives but also why taking responsibility for maintaining something—whether a motorcycle, a monument, or our very planet—can be a radical act.
“No one else but Stewart Brand is talking about the art and science of maintenance and how to do it well. This will be an instant classic.”
—Matt Ridley, author of The Rational Optimist“A deliciously good book.”
—Kevin Kelly, founding executive editor of WiredRead more

Medium Rare
Phil is ordinary. A mid-level Washington lobbyist for a decidedly unsexy organization, unhappy in the way all mildly successful, minimally influential men are. That is until the spring of 2019, when Phil’s picks for the NCAA March Madness Tournament start panning out, and heads begin to turn his way. He really may do it: predict a perfect bracket, for a billion-dollar prize. At first, Cassandra is just along for Phil’s soaring rise – she had foreseen it happening, after all. Despite moving in different circles since their shared university days and Cassandra never much liking him, she recognizes in Phil the making of a legend worthy of the highest art. What Cassandra fails to predict, though, is just how much she’d grow to care about Phil’s wife, Raleigh – and that the grandest narrative arcs sometimes unfold at the steepest of personal costs. Dazzling in its absurd comedy, Medium Rare is not only a gambol through the upper echelon, but also a shrewd examination of madness, desire, and credibility – why don’t we listen when prophetic women speak? A. Natasha Joukovsky delivers a story as layered and incisive as it is high-flying fun.Read more

My Year in Paris with Gertrude Stein: A Fiction
‘In one short and sly book after another, [Levy] writes about characters navigating swerves of history and sexuality, and the social and personal rootlessness that accompanies both’ Atlantic
Who was Gertrude Stein?
Avant-garde American poet and art collector who made her home in Paris, godmother of modernism, queer icon, friend to Picasso and Hemingway, self-declared genius ― a writer who has baffled readers and critics for a century.
And why does she matter?
The narrator of Deborah Levy’s latest, dazzling fiction has gone to Paris to find out. There she meets Eva with the blinding gaze, an artist in a long-distance marriage, and Fanny, a sexually adventurous financier; together they cook, walk, read and argue late into the nights.
As Paris sweeps her along in its ceaseless flow, she thinks – about what we have to lose to become modern, navigating anxiety, living with uncertainty, angry fathers, making a new life in another country, art and language – how all these things looked to Gertrude Stein in the early days of the twentieth century, and how they look to her and her friends in the early twenty-first.
This is a book about how we put ourselves together― an exhilarating, witty, cosmopolitan meditation on the pleasures and challenges of friendship, desire and living with other people. But it is also crashes through genre to create an inspired portrait of Stein herself: a writer who experimented fearlessly with a new way of living and who wrestled herself free from the nineteenth century to invent a brand-new way of looking at the world.
