The Field of the Cloth of Gold
The Great Field lies in the bend of a broad, meandering river. Bounded on three sides by water, on the fourth side it dwindles gradually into wilderness. A handful of tents are scattered far and wide across its immensity. Their flags flutter in the warm breeze, rich with the promise of halcyon days.
But more and more people are setting up camp in the lush pastures, and with each new arrival, life becomes a little more complicated. And when a large and disciplined group arrives from across the river, emotions run so high that even a surplus of milk pudding can't soothe ruffled feathers. Change is coming; change that threatens the delicate balance of power in the Great Field.
Magnus Mills's new novel takes its name from the site of a 1520 meeting, between Henry VIII and Francis I of France, to improve relations between the countries as the Treaty of London deteriorated. It allegorically suggests a number of historical encounters on British soil: the coming of the Vikings, the coming of the Romans. But The Field of the Cloth of Gold sits firmly outside of time, a skillful and surreal fable dealing with ideas of ownership, empire, immigration, charisma, diplomacy, and bureaucracy. It cements Magnus Mills's status as one of the most original and beloved novelists writing today.

The Ruin of Kings
The most anticipated fantasy debut of the year. In this thunderously good read, prophecy and magic combine in an incredible epic of imperial politics, gods and demons.
When destiny calls, there's no fighting back . . .
As a bard's apprentice, Kihrin grew up with tales of legendary deeds. He also steals, desperate to buy a way out of Quur's slums. Then he raids the wrong house, he's marked by a demon and life will never be the same again.
Kihrin's plight brings him to the attention of royalty, who claim him as the lost son of their immoral prince. But far from living the dream, Kihrin's at the mercy of his new family's ruthless ambitions. However, escaping his jewelled cage just makes matters worse. Kihrin is horrified to learn he's at the centre of an ancient prophecy. And every side - from gods and demons to dragons and mages - want him as their pawn. Those old stories lied about many things too, especially the myth that the hero always wins.
Then again, maybe Kihrin isn't the hero, for he's not destined to save the empire. He's destined to destroy it.
The Ruin of Kings is the first book in Jenn Lyons's extraordinary series, A Chorus of Dragons.

Our Final Warning: Six Degrees Of Climate Emergency
This book must not be ignored. It really is our final warning.
Mark Lynas delivers a vital account of the future of our earth, and our civilisation, if current rates of global warming persist. And it's only looking worse.
We are living in a climate emergency. But how much worse could it get? Will civilisation collapse? Are we already past the point of no return? What kind of future can our children expect? Rigorously cataloguing the very latest climate science, Mark Lynas explores the course we have set for Earth over the next century and beyond. Degree by terrifying degree, he charts the likely consequences of global heating and the ensuing climate catastrophe.
At one degree - the world we are already living in - vast wildfires scorch California and Australia, while monster hurricanes devastate coastal cities. At two degrees the Arctic ice cap melts away, and coral reefs disappear from the tropics. At three, the world begins to run out of food, threatening millions with starvation. At four, large areas of the globe are too hot for human habitation, erasing entire nations and turning billions into climate refugees. At five, the planet is warmer than for 55 million years, while at six degrees a mass extinction of unparalleled proportions sweeps the planet, even raising the threat of the end of all life on Earth.
These escalating consequences can still be avoided, but time is running out. We must largely stop burning fossil fuels within a decade if we are to save the coral reefs and the Arctic. If we fail, then we risk crossing tipping points that could push global climate chaos out of humanity's control.
This book must not be ignored. It really is our final warning.

Children of Ruin
'My most anticipated book of the year' - Peter F. Hamilton, Britain's no.1 science fiction writer
Children of Ruin follows Adrian Tchaikovsky's extraordinary Children of Time, winner of the Arthur C. Clarke award. It is set in the same universe, with new characters and a thrilling narrative.
It has been waiting through the ages. Now it's time . . .
Thousands of years ago, Earth's terraforming program took to the stars. On the world they called Nod, scientists discovered alien life - but it was their mission to overwrite it with the memory of Earth. Then humanity's great empire fell, and the program's decisions were lost to time.
Aeons later, humanity and its new spider allies detected fragmentary radio signals between the stars. They dispatched an exploration vessel, hoping to find cousins from old Earth.
But those ancient terraformers woke something on Nod better left undisturbed.
And it's been waiting for them.
'Books like this are why we read science fiction'

The Penguin Book of Japanese Verse
Poetry remains a living part of the culture of Japan today. The cliches of everyday speech are often to be traced to famous ancient poems, and the traditional forms of poetry are widely known and loved. The congenial attitude comes from a poetical history of about a millennium and a half. This classic collection of verse therefore contains poetry from the earliest, primitive period, through the Nara, Heian, Kamakura, Muromachi and Edo periods, ending with modern poetry from 1868 onwards, including the rising poets Tamura Ryuichi and Tanikawa Shuntaro.

The Illustrated History of Football: Hall of Fame
Welcome back to the imitable work of illustrator David Squires.
Most football fans can only dream of pulling on the shirt of their favourite team and running out in front of thousands of adoring fans. Pitch invaders aside, few of us get to experience that adrenalin rush. Of those who do make it as a professional footballer, even fewer realise the giddy heights of success.
In the Illustrated History of Football: Hall of Fame, cartoonist David Squires returns to celebrate those who straddle the game like giants; those talented, determined souls who were juggling tennis balls in the back streets before they could talk.
There’s more than one way to attain football immortality though, and Squires also turns his comic eye to the mavericks, the pioneers, the forgotten legends and the anti-heroes. From Pele to Meazza, Maradona to Socrates, you will be taken on an unforgettable journey through the good, the bad and the Hagi.

Álmaim valósága
Egy valóságos álom... ilyen felhanggal számolt be 2007-es perui történetemről a média néhány évvel ezelőtt. Pedig a teljes valóságot sosem osztottam meg senkivel a családomon és néhány barátomon kívül mostanáig. Amit a nyilvánosság eddig tudhatott, és amit meseszerűnek találtak sokan, hogy 2007-ben kiutaztam egy szál magamban Peruba, ahol egy hétre rá egy rejtélyes földalatti mesterséges barlangba kerültem. Pont olyanba, mint a híres ecuadori Tayos -barlang, amit első regényemben még hihetetlenként említek. Ott változott meg az életem. Miért? Nos, nem mindennapi, amik velem Peruban történtek. Sok élményemet, rettegésemet és szó szerinti csodákat egyaránt, még évekig nem tudtam feldolgozni. De most eljutottam egy pontra, ahol már nem kerülhettem meg, hogy világos válaszokat ne kapjak égető kérdéseimre: miért történt velem mindez? Mi a valóságos feladatom ezen a Földön? És egyáltalán ki vagyok én valójában? E számadás során magam is döbbenten raktam össze a nagy képet a sok kis szilánkból. Miért lépett velem kapcsolatba egy perui fedett ügynök, egy programozott katona? Milyen erők mentették ott meg az életemet? Mennyire átok (súlyos teher) avagy áldás, amikor átlépünk egy másik dimenzióba? E könyv minden olvasóból bizonyosan nagyon eltérő hatást vált majd ki, hisz egyvelege egy belső időutazásnak, egy önfeltáró vallomásnak, és egy igencsak izgalmas valós történetnek, mely teljesen álomszerű. Álom és valóság - lehet, hogy nincs is olyan éles határsáv, mint ahogy azt képzeljük?
