The book has several articles with the stars and guest stars, and honestly some of them feel a little superficial. Where things dip a little is in the additional pieces following the episode guide. This is the meat and potatoes of the book, and it’s just as solid as before. Between some episodes we get pieces going in detail on creatures or mythology from the show, such as Wraiths and Pagan Gods. Sidebars provide information about the music from the episodes and other trivia as well as some choice dialogue quotes. We get an overview of the plot, followed by some behind-the-scenes details and discussions with the creators and stars. We then get into the episodes, and the episode guide follows the format of the previous companion exactly.

Our Author of the Month is one truly worthy of the spooky month of October. But Angleton was also a dogmatic and conspiratorial operator whose idiosyncratic theories paralyzed the agency’s operations against the Soviet Union at the height of the Cold War, and whose domestic surveillance operations targeting American dissidents had discredited the CIA in the court of public opinion. The Counterintelligence Staff, created in 1954, had been headed for 20 years by James Jesus Angleton, a legendary spy who deployed the techniques of literary criticism learned at Yale to find deep patterns and hidden meanings in the records of KGB operations against the West. He knew the senior officialdom of MI-5 and MI-6, the British equivalents of the FBI and CIA, the agency’s closest partners in countering the KGB, the Soviet Union’s effective and ruthless intelligence service.Ĭram was assigned to investigate a debacle. He had served two decades in the clandestine service, including nine years as deputy chief of the CIA’s station in London. Cram, then 61, was well qualified for the task.

And on top of it all, the wrathful god of war, Ares, has returned to Olympus to dredge up his sordid history with the goddess of spring, threatening to surface Persephone’s dark and mysterious past and ruin her tenuous position in the land of the gods.ĭespite agreeing to take it slow, Persephone and Hades find themselves inextricably drawn toward each other once more amid the chaos. Persephone feels equally ostracized as her classmates shun her for her connection to Hades, and she can find no refuge at home, with Apollo constantly dropping by unannounced and pushing his unwelcome advances. And while Hades tries to create healthier boundaries where he can-like finally putting a stop to his sporadic, revenge-fueled hookups with Hera-he still feels lonely and adrift. Hades struggles to find support in his personal life, with Zeus trivializing his feelings and Minthe resorting to abusive patterns in their relationship. With the constant gossip creating intense pressure on the pair, they decide to slow down their budding romance and focus on sorting out their own issues first. The rumor mill of Olympus is constantly churning, but Persephone and Hades are all anyone can talk about. Witness what the gods do after dark in the fourth volume of a stylish and contemporary reimagining of one of the best-known stories in Greek mythology, featuring a brand-new, exclusive short story from creator Rachel Smythe. However, given that it’s impossible to halt the forces of democratization, he suggests that it would be useful to consider the example of American democracy, where equality of condition has developed further than anywhere else. Tocqueville describes a number of broad historical reasons for these changes, and then admits that he himself is terrified of this democratizing process.

Alexis de Tocqueville begins Democracy in America by discussing present-day conditions in his own nation, France.
