• A Family of Kings: The descendants of Christian IX of Denmark (Theo Aronson Royal History)

    08
    In 1863, Queen Victoria decreed that her son Edward, Prince of Wales, should marry Princess Alexandra, daughter of the obscure and unsophisticated heir to the Danish throne.

    The beauty, grace and charm of Prince Christian’s daughter had prevailed over the Queen’s intense dislike of the Danish royal house. Even the embarrassingly difficult Bertie was persuaded to agree to the match.

    Thus began the fairy-tale saga of a family that handed on its good looks, unaffectedness and democratic manners to almost every royal house of modern Europe. For, in the year that Alexandra became Princess of Wales, her brother Willie was elected King of the Hellenes; her father at last succeeded to the Danish throne; her sister Dagmar was soon to become wife of the future Tsar Alexander III of Russia; and her youngest sister Thyra later married the de jure King of Hanover.

    A Family of Kings is the story of the crowned children and grandchildren of Christian IX and Queen Louise of Denmark, focusing on the half-century before the First World War. It is an intimate, domestic study of a close-knit family, their individual personalities, and the courts to which they came.

    Theo Aronson is the author of over twenty works of royal historical biography, published in eleven languages. Among the widely read are Grandmama of Europe, The King in Love, Napoleon and Josephine and a biography of Princess Margaret. In the course of researching and writing these books he has interviewed major and minor members of Britain’s royal family and members of the royal households, as well as various officials, servants, friends and others whose lives are in some way connected with the monarchy.

    08

    A murdered crime writer. An idyllic Yorkshire town. Can DCI Oldroyd separate fact from fiction?

    A famous writer is found murdered at the Victorian baths in the Yorkshire town of Harrogate. In a crime worthy of one of his novels, Damian Penrose, who was appearing at the town’s crime writing festival, has been ruthlessly strangled.

    When Penrose’s shocking death proves to be just the first of many, it becomes clear to Oldroyd that he is dealing with a calculating criminal hell-bent on revenge. He must find and bring them to justice. Before the truth becomes more chilling than fiction…

  • A Royal Visit to Victory Street: A heartbreaking and utterly gripping family saga (The Bryant Sisters Book 5)

    08
    From Amazon charts bestseller Pam Howes comes an emotional and uplifting saga about the power of family and a community trying to rebuild their lives after the terrible war that nearly destroyed everything…

    1956, Liverpool. With the shadow of the war looming over them and bomb craters littering the surrounding streets, hope feels far away for the residents of Victory Street. When they learn that the Queen has chosen to visit them on a tour of Liverpool, the delighted neighbours bring back the wartime spirit. Can they possibly get the street ready in time?

    Even a royal visit cannot take away Bella Harrison’s worries. Her son, fourteen-year-old Levi, has just told her he wants to move to America to join the rest of his father’s family. The news has so shocked Bella that she’s not sure she’ll be able to sing for the Queen, jeopardising all their plans for the big day.

    Life has been hard for Levi, growing up as a mixed-race boy in Liverpool, but he’s the light of Bella’s life. The thought of losing him brings back the terrible memories of her father and sister dying during the war. If everyone pulls together to make the Queen’s visit an unforgettable celebration, perhaps she can persuade Levi that Victory Street is where he belongs.

    But when Levi receives heartbreaking news from America and his move becomes uncertain, Bella starts to wonder if all her efforts to keep him in Liverpool have been for the right reasons. Can Bella find it in herself to sing for the big celebration, and make the right choice for her beloved son?

  • The Long War for Britannia 367–664: Arthur and the History of Post-Roman Britain

    03

    This history of early medieval Britain sheds light on the real King Arthur and settles longstanding historical misconceptions about the period.

    The Long War for Britannia examines some two centuries of ‘lost’ British history, while providing decisive proof that the early records of the time are far more reliable than many scholars believe. Historian Edwin Pace also demonstrates that King Arthur and Uther Pendragon are the very opposite of medieval fantasy—even if different British regions had very different memories of these post-Roman British rulers.

    Some remembered Arthur as the ‘Proud Tyrant’, a monarch who plunged the island into civil war. Others recalled him as the British general who saved Britain when all seemed lost. The deeds of Uther Pendragon replicate the victories of the dread Mercian king Penda. Pace demonstrates how these authentic—yet radically different—narratives have distorted the historical record in way that persist today.

  • Good Arguments: How Debate Teaches Us to Listen and Be Heard

    ‘Electrifying … A user manual for our polarized world’ Adam Grant, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Think Again

    ‘Important, compelling and wise’ Johann Hari, Sunday Times-bestselling author of Stolen Focus

    How do you win an argument? How do you disagree without hard feelings? How do you debate in a way that moves the topic forward to an answer?

    Arguments matter, because we have them every day. We do it with loved ones and at work, over which restaurant to go to and which social viewpoint is right or fair. We trust the people we elect to argue on our behalf. We trust the news to dissect the arguments different parties are proposing. We have a system of justice which trusts the better argument will win out.

    Once, argument was taught and celebrated as a fundamental part of being a good citizen. But it isn’t anymore, and often we struggle to argue without furthering divisions, without hurt feelings or a useful progression of ideas at stake.

    As a two-time world debate champion, Bo Seo has made a career out of arguing well. In this book, he provides the reader with an unforgettable toolkit to improve their own disagreements, so that the outcome of having an argument is better than not having it at all.

    A thrilling adventure into the past and present of competitive debate, Good Arguments proves that good-faith disagreements can enrich our friendships, workplaces, and democracies — and in the process, our world.

    This is a book by a company that dislikes advertising as much as anyone. Nevertheless, it makes adverts. It has worked with global brands to produce fashion collections and promoted a town with a mass wedding. It creates advertising with more human, truthful communications. The company’s name is KesselsKramer.

    This book describes how to make something you like out of something you don’t. As well as drawing on its own experiences, KesselsKramer listens and learns from those who doubt the advertising industry. Stefan Sagmeister explains how quitting work makes you better at working; Hans Aarsman discusses authenticity in image-making; and Alex Bogusky looks at ways to help capitalism grow up.

    Advertising for People Who Don’t Like Advertising is partly a creative handbook and partly an attempt to make the world a very slightly better place. It’s intended for anyone who has ever hated a web banner or zapped an ad break.

  • How To Make Better Advertising And Advertising Better: The Manifesto for a New Creative Revolution

    02
    “The ad industry is in an unprecedented state of confusion. While the assertions and pomposity grow majestically, the advertising itself diminishes rapidly. Sadly there is no button we can push that will erase all the arrogance and self-delusion. Fortunately we have this book. It might be just the reset button we all need.” Bob Hoffman

    Something is rotten in the state of advertising. CEOs and marketers tell us that working with agencies is painful and laborious. Agency people tell us they feel undervalued, overworked and stifled by poor processes. And the poor old punter is left faced with advertising that is at best forgettable, and at worst insulting to the intelligence. Surely Advertising can be better than this?

    “This book is full of common sense. Which is rare, so it’s actually full of uncommon sense.” Dave Trott

    How as a businessperson or marketer can you get the most out of your advertising budget?
    What to look for in an agency or the people you choose to work with?
    What can help your advertising rise above the mass of messages out there?
    What can advertising agencies do to improve the quality and effectiveness of their output?

    We were having a cup of tea and a chat one morning when we had the idea for this book. In our opinion, the quality and effectiveness of advertising in general is not good enough. We think the way businesses work with agencies and the way that agencies organise themselves and develop advertising needs to be improved. It’s time the advertising industry had a much-needed kick up the proverbial. So we thought it would be helpful to collect the ideas and approaches that have helped us to make better advertising for our clients over the last ten years.

    Whether you’re a business owner, chief executive, marketer or brand director who works with ad agencies, or an agency chief, planner, ad exec or creative, we hope you find this book thought-provoking and challenging. Most of all, we hope it helps you make better advertising. Put the kettle on…

    08

    On a distant Earth colony, an orphaned survivor of an alien invasion discovers that the greatest world-ending dangers aren’t behind her.

    It’s been eight years since an alien invasion drove a small surviving group of settlers to seek refuge in an underground shelter. Cut off from the rest of humanity, the ragtag band has maintained a narrowly functioning colony due to communal effort and salvage runs. Alex Archer has her own duties as a dog handler. While this off-world colony may be harsh, Ash, Alex’s black shepherd raised to sense threats, makes living in it a little nicer.

    But the tenuous hide-and-seek with the monstrous species known as the Lankies is about to come to an end for Alex and her close-knit crew of soldiers, techs, and friends. When a salvage operation goes catastrophically wrong, the Lankies home in on the humans.

    With hopes of a rescue long faded, all Alex has left is will—and the fear that there’s so much more to lose.

  • Keith Richards: Satisfaction

    08
    In celebration of Keith Richards’ 80th birthday, this edition features a new introduction from the author.

    ‘A highly readable portrait of the irresistible millionaire minstrel.’ Independent

    ‘Highly entertaining . . . Of this latest crop of Stones books, Sandford’s affectionate, warts-and-all portrait of Keith is undoubtedly the best read.’ Charles Spencer, Sunday Telegraph

    ‘A pungent, air-guitar twanging celebration of one of rock’s true wild men.’ The Times

    He’s the shy, half-educated boy from Dartford . . . the ‘elegantly wasted’ junkie who wrote and played the Rolling Stones’ best-known songs . . . the artist formerly known as Wormwood Scrubs’ prisoner 7855 . . . the original Human Riff . . . and, today, the contented family man who continues to be rock’s most indomitable living practitioner.

    But who is the real Keith behind the kohl-eyed image? Christopher Sandford’s penetrating and entertaining biography is a hard, fast, sometimes shocking saga of sex, drugs and rock ’n’ roll — and of a flawed but wildly creative life.

  • Dirty Damage (Pavlov Bratva Book 1)

    10

    One million dollars.
    To have my boss’s baby.
    What would YOU do?

    For two years, I’ve watched Oleg Pavlov from afar.
    Dreamed about him in ways that would get me fired on the spot.

    He’s not just my boss—he’s THE boss.
    The mob-connected CEO who makes his fellow billionaires stammer and squirm.
    Built like a Greek statue with tattoos that disappear beneath expensive suits and scars that whisper stories he’ll never tell aloud.

    I fake like he doesn’t light me on fire with a single look.
    I ignore how my skin hums when he walks past.
    I pretend I don’t notice his ice-blue eyes following me down endless hallways.

    We had boundaries. Lines. Rules.
    Until the day he called me into his office and changed everything.

    “One million dollars,” he said, sliding a contract across his desk. “To have my child.”

    I said no.
    Walked out.
    Some lines shouldn’t be crossed, even for life-changing money.

    Then some photos leaked.
    Photos of ME.
    Photos that were never meant to see the light of day.

    And suddenly, Oleg is the only one who can save me.

    So I go to him.
    He’s waiting in his corner office, looking at me like he knew I’d come crawling back.
    Like he’s been WAITING.

    “The offer has changed, Ms. Palmer,” he says, voice rough and feral with something I’ve never heard before.
    “Nine months isn’t enough anymore.”

    Then he slides the NEW contract across his desk…

    DIRTY DAMAGE is Book 1 in the Pavlov Bratva duet. Oleg and Sutton’s story continues in Book 2, DIRTY GROVEL.
