• Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands (Emily Wilde Series)

    ‘Forget dark academia: give me instead this kind of winter-sunshined, sharp-tongued and footnoted academia, full of field trips and grumpy romance’ Freya Marske, author of A Marvellous Light

    An intrepid professor must uncover faerie secrets in the delightful and heart-warming second instalment of the Sunday Times bestselling Emily Wilde series.

    Emily Wilde is a genius scholar of faerie folklore, and has catalogued many secrets of the Hidden Folk in her encyclopaedia with her infuriatingly charming fellow scholar, Wendell Bambleby, by her side.

    But Bambleby is more than just a brilliant and unbearably handsome scholar. He’s an exiled faerie king on the run from his murderous mother, in search of a door back to his realm.

    By lucky happenstance, Emily’s new project, a map of the realms of faerie, will take them on an adventure to the picturesque Austrian Alps, where Emily believes they may find the door to Bambleby’s realm, and the key to freeing him from his family’s dark plans.

    But with new friendships for the prickly Emily to navigate and dangerous Folk lurking in every forest and hollow, Emily must unravel the mysterious workings of faerie doors, and of her own heart.

  • This is Europe: The Way We Live Now

    07

    ‘Thrilling’ – The Financial Times
    ‘Vivid, urgent and unsettling’ – Tom Holland
    _____

    What does it now mean to call yourself European? Who makes up this population of some 750 million, sprawled from Ireland to Ukraine, from Sweden to Turkey? Who has always called it home, and who has newly arrived from elsewhere? Who are the people who drive our long-distance lorries, steward our criss-crossing planes, lovingly craft our legacy wines, fish our depleted waters, and risk life itself in search of safety and a new start?

    In a series of vivid, ambitious, darkly visceral but always empathetic portraits of other people’s lives, journalist Ben Judah invites us to meet them. Drawn from hours of painstaking interviews, these vital stories reveal a frenetic and vibrant continent which has been transformed by diversity, migration, the internet, climate change, Covid, war and the quest for freedom.

    Laid dramatically bare, it may not always be a Europe we recognize – but this is Europe.

    02
    “Some really excellent one-liners and a great story.” Ian Moore, author, Death & Croissants.
    “This novel is hysterical!” Rebecca Leffler, writer and Creative Consultant on the Netflix TV series Emily in Paris,.

    By the author of A Year in the Merde and 1000 Years of Annoying the French.
    Englishman Paul West is living in Paris (where he arrived long before Emily, by the way) and he’s gearing up for the 2024 Olympics.
    Paul accepts a job with a French group who are campaigning to get pétanque adopted as an official Olympic event. In Paul’s opinion, lobbing lumps of lead around while drinking pastis is barely a sport – it’s more an excuse for Provençal men to avoid cooking dinner. But he needs the cash.
    Meanwhile Paul falls in love with a French tech genius – who thinks he’s an idiot – and tangles with his treacherous ex, Elodie.
    Paul also applies for French nationality and has to embark on a war of attrition with France’s Napoleonic bureaucrats.
    In the background, Paul’s friend Jake the grunge poet decides that the Olympics and Paralympics discriminate against the lazy, and invents the “Nolympics”.

  • Finucane & Me: My Life with Marian

    Marian Finucane was a trailblazing broadcaster, the first to champion women’s issues on air, and respected for her fairness, empathy and doggedness. One of a small group of Irish people known simply by their first name, the nation mourned when she died suddenly, aged 69, in January 2020.

    But John Clarke, Marian’s widower, doesn’t use her moniker – instead, he calls her ‘Finucane’. It highlights the gap between the woman so many felt they knew and the woman he loved – the real Marian – who was by turns curious, fiery, emotional, stubborn, charming and endlessly excited by life.

    When John and Marian first got together, they promised each other that they’d never be boring. What ensued was forty years of conversation and thousands of miles travelled. Finucane & Me is an unexpected love story: the story of two people who ‘made a pact for madness’; the story of a never-ending search for meaning; the story of two people who lived life to its fullest.

  • Whatever You Do, Don’t Run: True Tales Of A Botswana Safari Guide

    01
    A hilarious, highly original collection of essays based on the Botswana truism: “only food runs!” With a new introduction and new material from the authorIn the tradition of Bill Bryson, a new writer brings us the lively adventures and biting wit of an African safari guide. Peter Allison gives us the guide’s-eye view of living in the bush, confronting the world’s fiercest terrain of wild animals and, most challenging of all, managing herds of gaping tourists. Passionate for the animals of the Kalahari, Allison works as a top safari guide in the wildlife-rich Okavango Delta. As he serves the whims of his wealthy clients, he often has to stop the impulse to run as far away from them as he can, as these tourists are sometimes more dangerous than a pride of lions. No one could make up these outrageous-but-true tales: the young woman who rejected the recommended safari-friendly khaki to wear a more “fashionable” hot pink ensemble; the lost tourist who happened to be drunk, half-naked, and a member of the British royal family; establishing a real friendship with the continent’s most vicious animal; the Japanese tourist who requested a repeat performance of Allison’s being charged by a lion so he could videotape it; and spending a crazy night in the wild after blowing a tire on a tour bus, revealing that Allison has as much good-natured scorn for himself. The author’s humor is exceeded only by his love and respect for the animals, and his goal is to limit any negative exposure to humans by planning trips that are minimally invasive―unfortunately it doesn’t always work out that way!New story: People often ask safari guides about the experience that frightened them the most. In this story Peter Allison tells of the time he became aware of unseen danger, and knew that somewhere within meters of him was a hunting lioness. Peter Allison is originally from Sydney, Australia. His safaris have been featured in National Geographic, Conde Nast Traveler, and on television programs such as Jack Hanna’s Animal Adventures. He travels frequently to speaking appearances, and splits most of his time between Botswana, Sydney, and San Francisco.

    07

    Dom Joly sets off on his travels again, immersing himself in the strange world of conspiracies. On his journeys he meets conspiracy theorists galore in destinations all over the world, some famous, some rather less so.

    Conspiracy theories used to be fun, a bit of laugh. Did we really land on the moon? Was Paul McCartney cloned? Nowadays, however, in the aftermath of Donald Trump, a global pandemic and the ever-increasing influence of social media algorithms, they are part of the body politic and a massive cause of division and mistrust.

    In The Conspiracy Tourist Dom Joly sets out on a global journey to find out what’s going on. His travels see him meeting followers of QAnon, hunting for UFOs in Roswell, chasing Alex Jones of Info Wars around Austin, trying to prove that Finland exists and taking a flat-earther to the edge of the world.

    On the way Dom inevitably finds the funny and the quirky, but he also tries to understand what makes people so drawn to conspiracy theories. What if those he has long dismissed as crazed loonies actually have a point? What if we are the sheeple and they’ve been right all along?

  • Shifting Sands: Emotional, engaging, and ultimately uplifting! With a focus on friendship, family & facing up to change – is this really the end of the … Julie? (Coming Back…

    08
    It’s tough, being a grown-up. Alice has never appreciated that as much as she does now.

    When a friend’s parent dies, and with her own parents experiencing health issues, Alice is beginning to understand the meaning of the term ‘sandwich generation’, and even more so when one of her children becomes ill. With a business to manage, and rapidly increasing bills, the last thing she needs is her best friend and business partner Julie throwing a spanner in the works. When Lydia’s relationship with the famous actor Si Davey comes under strain, Alice is glad for the chance to help her, and focus on somebody else’s problems for once.

    Nevertheless, suffering from sleep deprivation and stress, Alice finds herself challenging other relationships in her life, looking for somebody to provide the answers and support that she needs. Does she have the strength and resilience to find her way through these troubling times? And is it possible to salvage her friendship with Julie before it’s too late?

    Shifting Sands is the final book of the Coming Back to Cornwall series, and a chance to see how far life has come for Alice, Julie and the important people in their lives. It is also a reminder that there is no such thing as a happy ending – merely happy moments, which inevitably will be followed by other moments: happy, sad, stressful, relaxing… life goes on, and the sands never stop shifting beneath our feet.

  • A Villa With a View (Romantic Escapes, Book 11)

    Escape to the Amalfi Coast and feel the warmth of the Italian sun on your face, hear the sound of the turquoise waves crashing on the beach and fall in love with a new enemies to lovers romance!

    Lia Bathurst had always dreamed of escaping to the white sandy beaches and turquoise blue seas of the Amalfi coast – but that dream hadn’t included meeting her real father. A father she had never even known about until a few weeks ago! Yet here she was, standing outside the gates of a gorgeous pink villa being refused entry by the insufferable – and insufferably handsome – Raphael Knight, her father’s business manager.

    When an old black and white photo proves Lia’s claim to be true, Raph is determined to make sure this stranger, with her long caramel waves and infectious smile, doesn’t have an ulterior motive. Even if that means not letting her out of his sight.

    As temperatures rise, and not just from the heat of the Mediterranean sun, could Lia and Raph’s forced proximity lead to something more like… amore?

  • Emancipation for Goalposts: Football’s Role in the Fall of Yugoslavia

    In 1987, a Zvonimir Boban-inspired Yugoslavia won the World Under-20 Championships in Chile, and a blueprint for success seemed in place.

    What nobody could have imagined was that there was to be no future for this team of supremely talented youngsters. Just a few years later, Yugoslavia was in the grip of a brutal civil war, the culmination of nearly a century of suppressed nationalism that tore the country apart.

    Emancipation for Goalposts is a compelling examination of the bloody conflicts that ripped through Yugoslavia and an absorbing history of football in the region – inescapably intertwined with the country’s destruction, but also a vital tool in ethnic reconciliation.

    From Tito, Arkan and Maksimir, to Italia ’90, Red Star Belgrade’s European triumph and what could have been, Chris Etchingham has created one of the definitive accounts of the inextricable links between sport, society and politics.

  • Be Fit, Live Free: A Fundamental Approach To Fitness Based On The Principles of Mother And Human Nature

    Fitness, as we know it, is a relatively new scientific discipline that’s still in its infancy. As such, many popular “evidence-based” approaches to diet and exercise are still rooted in vague correlations and guesswork.

    Be Fit, Live Free is a new holistic model for how fitness works as a whole. This is not another diet or exercise program that’s hoping to trend on social media for a few months. Instead, this comprehensive unification theory explains how everything in fitness works from the ground up to give you the power to get what you want while allowing you the freedom to do things your way.

    In Be Fit, Live Free, you’ll discover:

    • Why almost all diet and exercise methods are based on an incomplete model based more on correlation than causation.
    • Why it’s impossible for almost all diet and exercise programs to deliver on the promises they sell to you.
    • The fundamental processes that control your weight, performance, and health, and why no single approach to fitness can work for everyone.
    • The social media influences are dead wrong when it comes to motivation. It’s 100% essential to your success, and you will be forever lost if you need to learn how to cultivate it.
    • Learn how to cultivate an unlimited amount of motivation that lasts for years.
    • How fitness scams and programs make inflated promises to lure you into dogmatic obedience that limits your results while shackling your lifestyle freedom.

    This book is for beginners who want to build a solid understanding of fitness and seasoned veterans who are burned out from the diet and exercise rat race. Fitness should enhance, rather than compromise, the health of your mind, body, and lifestyle. Be Fit, LIve Free is the new fitness model that will ensure you get exactly what you want from your habits regardless of which methods you wish to use.
