Malice
Once upon a time, there was a wicked fairy who, in an act of vengeance, cursed a line of princesses to die. A curse that could only be broken by true love's kiss.
Utter nonsense.
Let me tell you, no one in Briar cares what happens to our princess. I thought I didn't care, either. Until I met her.
Princess Aurora, last heir to the throne, the future queen her realm needs. One who isn't bothered that I am Alyce, the Dark Grace, abhorred and feared for the mysterious dark magic that runs in my veins. But with less than a year before the curse kills her, any future I might imagine for us is quickly disappearing - and she can't stand to kiss yet another idiotic prince. But maybe I can help her. If my power began the curse, it might be the one to lift it. Perhaps, together, we could forge a new world.
But we all know how this story ends. Aurora is the beautiful princess.
And I am the villain.
Ten Trips
A neuropsychologist takes ten different drugs in this panoramic view of psychedelics today
Once demonised and still largely illegal, psychedelic drugs are now officially a 'breakthrough therapy', used to treat depression, trauma and addiction and to enhance well-being. But as neuropsychologist Andy Mitchell shows in this deeply serious yet wildly entertaining investigation, this approach misses what is so strange and valuable about them: the psychedelic experience itself.
In Ten Trips he takes ten different drugs in ten different settings, journeying from a neuroimaging lab in London to the Colombian Amazon via Silicon Valley and his friend's basement kitchen. His encounters with scientists and gangsters, venture capitalists and con-men, psychonauts and shamans provide a panoramic view of psychedelics today: their capacity for healing but also trauma, for transcendence and corruption, profundity and hilarity.
By removing psychedelics from their indigenous and underground cultures, we risk losing the very things we need to harness them. To make them safe or normal might ultimately destroy what makes them potent. That potential is indeed great, not as an antidote to mental illness - none exists - but as a way of changing our whole perspective on mental health and flourishing.
Ten Trips is a dazzling, perception-shifting odyssey that shows how psychedelics can re-enchant us with the world.
The Ladies of Ivy Cottage
New from the Top Author of Inspirational Regency Romance
Return to Ivy Hill in The Ladies of Ivy Cottage as friendships deepen, romances blossom, and mysteries unfold.
Living with the two Miss Groves in Ivy Cottage, impoverished gentlewoman Rachel Ashford is determined to earn her own livelihood . . . somehow. When the village women encourage her to open a subscription library with the many books she has inherited or acquired through donations, Rachel discovers two mysteries hidden among them. A man who once broke her heart helps her search for clues, but will both find more than they bargained for?
Rachel's friend and hostess, Mercy Grove, has given up thoughts of suitors and fills her days managing her girls' school. So when several men take an interest in Ivy Cottage, she assumes pretty Miss Ashford is the cause. Exactly what--or who--has captured each man's attention? The truth may surprise them all.
Meanwhile, life has improved at the coaching inn and Jane Bell is ready to put grief behind her. Now if only the man she misses would return--but where is he?
As the women of Ivy Hill search for answers about the past and hope for the future, might they find love along the way?
Setkání s mimozemšťany
Pokud se pozemšťané opravdu setkali s mimozemšťany, jedná se o nejnapínavější a nejdůležitější téma ufologie. O jejich existenci se totiž už vůbec nedá pochybovat. Ale jestliže mimozemšťané navštěvují Zemi, nenaskýtá se snad v první řadě otázka, proč přicházejí a co bychom se mohli od civilizace na evidentně vyšší úrovni naučit? (…)
„Ufologie“ se nikdy nestane vědou, protože v okamžiku pochopení, kdo vesmírné lodě řídí, přestanou být „neznámými létajícími objekty“. Styk s mimozemšťany sice hodně obohatí známé vědy, ale zrodí se z něj jediná nová: exoantropologie, nauka o mimozemšťanech a jejich kulturách.
Možná je tato kniha první sbírkou pramenů k exoantropologii, základem této nové vědy. (…) Nejsme ve vesmíru sami, to z ní jasně vyplývá. Desítky, možná stovky, tisíce jiných lidstev existují v nekonečném vesmíru a ačkoli nás o stovky, možná tisíce let předčí ve vývoji, zřejmě se od nás ani tak moc neliší. Žijeme totiž v „hologra? ckém univerzu“, v němž mor? cká rezonance kopírovala vývoj od jedné planety ke druhé, od jednoho světa ke druhému. Mimozemšťané jsou ti druzí, cizí – a přesto jsou našimi bratry a sestrami. Pokud tato kniha čtenářům pomůže přistoupit bez strachu nebo naopak falešného zbožňování k příslušníkům jiných civilizací, kteří navštíví Zemi, splnila svůj účel. Poslouží dialogu s vesmírem, založeném na vzájemném porozumění a na skutečnosti, že jsme všichni dětmi univerzální jednoty.

Az egyszerű vadon 2: Wild at Heart - Vad szívvel
Út Alaszkába, és az élet soha nem várt fordulatai.
Calla Fletcher új emberként tér vissza Torontóba, nehezen találja a helyét, és még mindig borzasztóan szerelmes a goromba bozótpilótába, akit maga mögött hagyott. Amikor Jonah felbukkan az ajtajában egy visszautasíthatatlan ajánlattal, rászánja magát, hogy sietve visszatérjen Alaszkába, és együtt belevágjanak izgalmas jövőjükbe.
De Calla hamarosan megtanulja, hogy a legjobb szándék is vezethet be nem tartott ígéretekhez, és kemény ára van a kompromisszumnak - egy belső-alaszkai rönkház éppolyan elszigetelt tud lenni, mint a nyugati tundra világa.
Mialatt Jonah többet tartózkodik távol, mint otthon, Calla egyik
szomszédja elhatározza, hogy igazi alaszkaivá neveli őt, a másik szomszédja viszont nagyobb eséllyel fog rá puskát, mint hogy a segítségére siessen. Calla mindeközben keresi a saját útját. A bóklászó vadak világában folyamatosan résen kell lennie, és nem csupán a hideg, sötét, téli hónapokat jellemzik
zord körülmények; időnként még a saját ajtaján kilépni is rémisztő.
Vajon milyen sorsra jut végül?
Az egyszerű Vadon nemzetközi bestseller magával ragadó folytatása.

Lady Sapiens
45,000 years ago, rare and precious statues of faceless women with hourglass figures, sturdy hips and generous breasts surfaced across Europe. Spanning thousands of years and nurturing many a fantasy, they are known as the prehistoric Venus figurines. But what were the women who inspired these artifacts really like?
For 150 years researchers offered no archaeological insights into the daily lives of prehistoric women and underestimated their role in society. In fact, these women became imprisoned by clichés. Prehistoric man hunted, went on adventures, invented, created and drew, whereas the role of prehistoric women was limited to educating children and carrying out domestic chores. That's all there was to say about it, or almost.
Over the past fifteen years a new generation of researchers - many of whom are women - have shaken up this model. By establishing groundbreaking analysis protocols and defining new excavation methods, these scientists are finally able to make the invisible visible. It is thanks to their tenacity that the essential and even prestigious role of prehistoric women is emerging. For the first time ever these ancient women are being resurrected before our very eyes, shedding light on a new theory of our origins!

Storyteller
So, I've written a book.
Having entertained the idea for years, and even offered a few questionable opportunities ('It's a piece of cake! Just do four hours of interviews, find someone else to write it, put your face on the cover, and voila!'), I have decided to write these stories just as I have always done, in my own hand. The joy that I have felt from chronicling these tales is not unlike listening back to a song that I've recorded and can't wait to share with the world, or reading a primitive journal entry from a stained notebook, or even hearing my voice bounce between the Kiss posters on my wall as a child.
This certainly doesn't mean that I'm quitting my day job, but it does give me a place to shed a little light on what it's like to be a kid from Springfield, Virginia, walking through life while living out the crazy dreams I had as young musician. From hitting the road with Scream at 18 years old, to my time in Nirvana and the Foo Fighters, jamming with Iggy Pop or playing at the Academy Awards or dancing with AC/DC and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, drumming for Tom Petty or meeting Sir Paul McCartney at Royal Albert Hall, bedtime stories with Joan Jett or a chance meeting with Little Richard, to flying halfway around the world for one epic night with my daughters...the list goes on. I look forward to focusing the lens through which I see these memories a little sharper for you with much excitement.

The Well at the World's End
Using language with elements of the medieval tales which were his models, Morris tells the story of Ralph of Upmeads, the fourth and youngest son of a minor king, who sets out, contrary to his parents' wishes, to find knightly adventure and seek the Well at the World's End, a magic well which will confer a near-immortality and strengthened destiny on those who drink from it.Although the novel is relatively obscure by today's standards it has had a significant influence on many notable fantasy authors. C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien both seem to have found inspiration in The Well at the World's End: ancient tables of stone, a "King Peter", a quick, white horse named "Silverfax", and a character named "Gandalf" are only a few, to say nothing of Ralph's journey home as denouement, anticipating the Hobbits' return and battle for the Shire.

August just wants to be human, as good-hearted as his own father-but his curse is to be what the humans fear. The thin truce that keeps the Harker and Flynn families at peace is crumbling, and an assassination attempt forces Kate and August into a tenuous alliance. But how long will they survive in a city where no one is safe and monsters are real...
