Sojourning With Angels: The Rise of Zazriel is the first in a highly anticipated trilogy exploring angelology, teachings of the Eastern Orthdox Christian Church and ancient speculative histories.

In the peaceful city of Grand Rapids, Michigan, unseen warfare rages for the final resting place of a man's soul. Zazriel, a forgotten watcher angel, is sent as an apprentice to Milo Christopoulos's family. Milo, a scandalous real estate agent, has lost his faith, renounced his Eastern Orthodox Christian tradition and for the past decade, demonic influences have infested his life, when his soul is suddenly required of him. While Milo lays in a coma, his wife, Natalie sees his soul suffering in the demonic Aerial Toll Houses, an intermediate state where the demons wage their last attack. Too late to repent, Milo is stranded between heaven and hell for forty days hoping against all hope that love will win. Father Lazarus, a struggling whiskey priest who can see dead souls, decides to help Natalie discern a supernatural understanding of reality--a hidden reality only alluded to in the Bible and whispered about in other sacred writings. Together with three guardian angels, they battle hideous demons, including an ancient succubus, with violent acts of love in hopes of rescuing Milo before it's too late. Sojourning With Angels is a brave new series where sinners sin, demons curse all creatures, spiritual journeys challenge the status quo concerning the afterlife and where love must fight if it's going to win in the end.

Relating, as if by eye-witness all the scenes and wonderful incidents in the Life Of Jesus Of Nazareth, from his baptism in Jordon to His crucifixion on Calvary.

Shortly after the completion of the transcontinental railroad in 1886, two young sisters from Pictou County, Nova Scotia, took the train west to British Columbia. Jessie and Annie McQueen each intended to teach there for three years and then return home. In fact they remained sojourners between British Columbia, Nova Scotia, and Ontario for much of their lives.

Drawing on family correspondence and supported by extensive engagement with current scholarship, Jean Barman tells the sisters' stories and, in doing so, offers a new interpretation of early settlement across Canada. As did many other women of these years, Jessie and Annie McQueen remained bound by daughterhood's obligations and sisterhood's bonds even as they got involved in their new communities. Barman takes seriously women as sojourners and uses Jessie and Annie McQueen's letters home to evoke the boundless energy and enthusiasm shown by the thousands of women who helped to form Canada's frontiers.

Like other sojourners, the McQueen sisters did not come to their new home empty handed. They brought with them a distinctly Scottish Presbyterian way of life, consistent with ideas of the nation being promoted in the public realm by fellow Nova Scotians such as George Monro Grant. Confident in their assumptions, including the central role of religion in the formation of a grand national vision, women like these sisters were critical in uniting Canada from coast to coast. Broad in its critical approach and nuanced in its interpretations, Sojourning Sisters is a major contribution to the field of life writing and to the political, gender, and social history of Canada.
