The Great Arcanum
A pioneering analysis of Eliphas Lévi’s The Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic, one if the most influential works of occult literature, exploring ceremonial magic, magical philosophy, cabala, hermeticism and more!The work of Eliphas Lévi has undoubtedly shaped the course of modern magic. The Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic systemised magical theory and practice in a way that re-situated occultism as a serious field of academic study, moving it away from the fringes of society into a massive cultural force in the Western world. Chapters include discussion on cabala, sacred geometry, necromancy, astrology, enchantments, philosophy, and much more. But the transmission of Lévi’s work in the English-speaking was disrupted by the wider politics of contemporary occult circles, meaning that it was often ignored as a key text in occult schools and mystical traditions. Now, for the first time, The Great Arcanum – John Michael Greer’s groundbreaking analysis and commentary of The Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic – changes this, uncovering the key themes and messages in Lévi’s work for use in magical study. Greer focuses specifically on how Lévi was able to so successfully revolutionise magical practice in the Western world, and the meanings that can be gleaned from his writing. Key themes discussed include the source of magical power; astral light as the foundation for magical phenomena; and using the tarot deck as a key to unlock the secrets of the occult tradition. The Great Arcanum delves right into the core of where modern magic was born, and will prove a stimulating and thought-provoking read for any serious student or practitioner of the occult.

THE CAT'S OUT OF THE BAG
Knowing that his beautiful master, Qingtong, is actually the spirit cat he pampered in his previous life, Mo Tianliao wants to get back to doting on his precious kitty! Oh, to be brushing his lovely hair, feeding him delicious treats, spoiling him all over again, and maybe even...a kiss or two? No? Claws to the face instead? Well, that's fine. After all, the most essential thing is healing the damage to Qingtong's divine soul, and that won't be as simple as providing tender loving care.
To help his master, Mo Tianliao needs an elixir made from the rare Jadefruit, which only grows on a single tree. A tree that just so happens to be the property of a rival cultivation sect, one that views spirit beasts like Qingtong as valuable commodities to be bought and sold.
With his unmatched mastery of artifacts and arrays, Mo Tianliao may be able to steal the priceless fruit with his skills alone. But, as they infiltrate the Liuyun Sect, he and Qingtong risk revealing their own sect's greatest secret: that all its highest-ranked cultivators are actually spirit beasts in human form!

An Accident of Dragons: Deluxe Stenciled Edges
An unlikely lord finally meets a problem he can't flirt his way out of in this adventurous and slyly light-hearted queer cozy fantasy featuring pirates, dragons, kidnapping, tea, and other high-fantasy delights for readers of Rebecca Thorne, TJ Klune, Sarah Beth Durst, and Travis Baldree.
Deluxe Limited Edition Paperback with Stenciled Edges!
In theory, the dragoness of Summer can make any resident on her island the ruler, if the previous Lord Summer is so careless as to die without an heir. In practice, absolutely no one expected her to choose Teddy, the last lord's middle-aged fancy man. With his quick wit, heaps of charisma, and excellent dress sense, Teddy brings plenty of virtues to his new role, but statecraft, pedigree, and decorum are not among them. That's all right: he's done his duty to the island, and his five-year-old daughter, Zinnia, will make a brilliant Lady Summer when her time comes.
Except when a ship of desperate mainlander thieves arrives, Zinnia's caught in the fracas and taken hostage. Teddy jumps into the rescue mission without delay, even though his days of adventures on the mainland are long buried with his lover. But his sailors have never seen their destination, and worse, the hard-liner admiral who leads them thinks Teddy's a worthless dandy. Against a conniving robber baron, a sorceress who's tamed her own dragon, and ordinary people with everything to lose, the crew faces terrible odds. But with all he loves in danger, Teddy must prove there's more to him than he'd ever intended to show.

Birds Up Close
A renowned engineer and ornithologist reveals the marvel of how birds work from the tips of their beaks to the sheen of their tailfeathers. With over 150 full-color illustrations, a unique gift book for everyone from the avid birder to the bird beginner. Consider feathers: They define birds wings, enabling flight. They insulate against cold. They repel water. They even control sound. And how feathers work is just one aspect of the wonders of birds explained by pathbreaking researcher and lifelong birder Lorna Gibson in Birds Up Close. Feathers, bones, bills, eggs, flight: all come in for scrutiny in this engaging book. What produces the iridescence of plumage? How does the internal structure of a bird s bones make them lightweight? How do different birds use their bills and tongues from woodpeckers penetrating the holes they drill to hummingbirds imbibing nectar, to sandpipers needling the sand, and to phalaropes drawing water droplets containing plankton into their mouths without sucking (no lips!)? Drawing on her expertise and personal experience in both engineering and ornithology, the author explores the hidden microscopic structures and engineering principles that keep birds aloft and alive how an egg is formed, how a bird generates lift; how raptors soar and glide, albatrosses fly thousands of miles, hummingbirds hover, puffins and penguins fly underwater. She also considers the longer view of birds in their habitats and natural history. Her up-close look at avian mysteries provides a perspective like no other for the expert ornithologist and curious observer alike.

The Prison Project
As a young, novice dance teacher, Aimee Friel’s first full-time job took an unexpected turn when she was asked to teach regular dance classes for young offenders at a Scottish prison. Many of her students were her own age, but their worlds couldn’t have been more different. Thrown into chaotic classes filled with cringeworthy chat-up lines, cheeky Glaswegian banter, and hilarious dad-dancing, Aimee embarked on a journey of growth alongside the young men in her classes. She faced challenges including impromptu drum sessions, a stolen safety alarm and the harsh realities of trauma, toxic masculinity and stigma. As trust built, so did transformation. Through comedic tea breaks, some difficult conversations and unexpected choreography, Aimee was drawn to the deeper roots of incarceration – from adverse childhood experiences to homelessness and substance misuse. Interwoven with personal reflection, including her own family’s struggle with addiction and trauma, The Prison Project challenges perceptions and asks what it really takes to make a difference in the lives of young people.
