Wonka
Before Charlie, before the Chocolate Factory, comes a story of invention and imagination . . .
Ever since he was a child, Willy Wonka had dreamed of making chocolate and sharing it with the world.
As a young man, he arrives at the world-famous Galeries Gourmet, determined to change the world one delectable bite at a time.
But hounded by a trio of jealous chocolatiers, and tricked into a lifetime of washhouse drudgery, Wonka will need a little luck and a whole lot of magic – along with some help from a few friends – to fulfil his destiny.
Because if you’re lucky enough to meet Willy Wonka, anything is possible.
This delicious tale of dreams, friendship and chocolate is based on the major motion picture, Wonka, directed by Paul King, who created the story and wrote the screenplay with Simon Farnaby. The story is brought to the page by bestselling author Sibéal Pounder. This edition of Wonka is brought to life with brand-new illustrations by Emily Jones.
Old Bones in Puglia
'The first division of crime writers' - Daily Mail----------Discover Italy's bewitching region of Puglia with the seventh Daniel Leicester mystery, the most propulsive yet . . . English detective and Bologna resident Daniel Leicester has been summoned by a dying relative to the wildest corner of Puglia, home to revered saints, fearsome mafia clans, hidden catacombs and sinister ceremonies. As Daniel discovers that his Italian family's history runs deep in the veins of the region, old grudges resurface and life is breathed into ancient superstitions. He is enchanted by the mysteries of the region and joins a search for stolen antiquities, but when a contact is gruesomely murdered by mobsters, it's clear that mafia rule is more powerful than local mysticism. Lured by magic but trapped by the mob, Daniel finds himself unable to return to his beloved Bologna. His family is bound to Puglia more tightly than he ever imagined, and powerful people want answers he can't give. And when Daniel's daughter is snatched during a Holy Week procession, he sees first-hand just how far they're prepared to go . . . ----------Readers love Tom Benjamin's Daniel Leicester mysteries!'A galloping and topical read' - The Florentine'Evocative, easy to read, and immersive...

Gulliver's Travels
Gulliver's Travels is one of the landmarks of world literature. Gulliver's adventures with the tiny but spirited Lilliputians, the giant inhabitants of Brobdingnag, the flying island of Laputa, and the rational horses of Houyhnmhnmland have become globally famous for their satirical wit and visionary creativity. Early editions credited Gulliver himself as the author, and many readers believed him to be a real person. Later commentators have variously described the work as proto-science fiction, as inspired children's literature and as a forerunner of the modern novel. The editor's introduction to this celebratory anniversary edition contextualises Gulliver's Travels in Swift's life and work as a whole while exploring its rich and remarkable afterlife. All the original illustrations and maps are included, as are the frontispiece portraits. Generous annotation explains textual details which might now seem obscure, and appendices contain additional documents and images to enhance contemporary understanding and enjoyment.
