About World of Books Ltd West Sussex, United Kingdom
In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we're helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.

Summary
Soccer
mom and demon fighter Barbara Everette has a problem. It seems Janea, BarbaraâÈçs
assistant and The Foundation for Love and Universal Faith's best operative, has
been thrown into a coma by some very nasty magic sheâÈçs stirred up. Barbara must
track down the perpetrators and break the spell or Janea's soul will be forever
lost on the astral plane. Oh, and if she can't break the spell, zombies will
destroy all mankind.
Meanwhile,
Janea, a stripper and High Priestess of Freya when she isnâÈçt fighting demons,
must contend with a spiritual journey of her own. ItâÈçs a journey into JaneaâÈçs
acceptance of herself in all her dimensions (and what dimensions they are!).
Where to locate oneâÈçs true inner essence? At a science fiction convention, of
course. But when rescuers pursue Janea into her vision of a geeky alternate
reality, we find this is one science fiction convention where the Guest of
Honor could turn out to be Death Himself.
Finally,
the Christian soccer mom and the Norse priestess stripper face their greatest
challenge ever when an ancient Old One rears Her ugly face, and the Mother of
Darkness walks among us. Since this is one Mother who is quite immune to any
conventional power, including nuclear weapons, it seems humanityâÈçs only hope is
God. The question being: Is God willing to save humanity?
