The Running Bucket List
There are a lot of reasons to run. We do it to lose or maintain weight, to be healthier, and to clear our minds. Running can do all these things, and more. But running can be, well, repetitive. For everyone, at some point, it can get boring. Predictable. Routine. Experienced runner, coach, and adventurer Jeff Horowitz wrote The Running Bucket List to provide a fun and organized way to reinvigorate your love for running. Pulling from his nearly four decades of running, which includes racing in every state in the US and on every continent, running in everything from the world's biggest races to solo runs in almost every kind of condition imaginable, Horowitz offers ideas to spice up your training and events that you might already be familiar with, as well as others that you've never dreamed of before. Check items off your running bucket list like:· Join a running club; · Get a gait analysis; · Participate in your local parkrun; · Conquer the Great Wall Marathon; · Run on the Roger Bannister Track in Oxford; · Become a race volunteer; · And so much more!In this book, you'll find over 100 bucket list items, ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous, from the deeply challenging to the whimsical. Pick and choose from among these adventures or work your way through the list one by one. Either way, you can be sure to banish boredom from your running.

The Ending Writes Itself
''Secrets don''t stay secret for long in publishing''Six authors. One private island. Seventy-two hours to write the ending that will change their lives.‘This is a house of novelists, not murderers. You dream up crimes. You don’t commit them.’ ‘But a writer has. And so, who better than a writer to catch them?’World famous author Arthur Fletch is dead. His final novel, the most anticipated book in history, remains unfinished. But the ending won’t write itself.Fletch’s publisher, Merriweather Press, has invited six authors to Fletch’s private island in Scotland. Authors whose books have never had the big marketing budgets or publicity opportunities. In other words, midlist. And they’re about to be presented with the opportunity of a lifetime.Whoever writes a worthy ending will receive one million dollars, and a further one million dollars for a new three-book contract.They have just seventy-two hours, with no access to the outside world, just a typewriter and a blank page. All they have to do is write…Starting is often the hardest part. But getting to the end could be murder. *‘Agatha Christie''s And Then There Were None meets Yellowface… Great fun!’ Kate Mosse‘A great locked-room thriller and a brilliant satire on the publishing industry’ Karin Slaughter‘Fiendishly clever and compulsively readable… An absolute must read’ Ellery Lloyd‘Funny, razor sharp and scarily relatable’ Sarah Crossan

Like a Cat Loves a Bird
'This is a deeply stylish, astute and illuminating biography of a fascinating writer'FRANCESCA WADE, author of Square Haunting'Utterly charming. A book as elegant, sharp-witted and mischievous as its subject'CLARE POLLARD, author of Delphi'She was, if you believe what you read in the papers: a genius, a survivor, a bad mother, a fickle friend, a closeted lesbian, a tyrant, a loner, an eccentric, a recluse, a gossip, and an arch-manipulator. She would politely encourage you not to believe what you read in the papers.'Muriel Spark was one of literature's great shapeshifters. That mercurial quality is found in her strange, brilliant, cruel novels - with their plots featuring pensioners receiving telephone calls from Death, the devil going clubbing in Peckham and a fascist schoolmistress leading her coterie of girls astray - but it is also true of her as a person. As sly, nimble and elegant as Spark's own work, Like a Cat Loves a Bird is a thrilling new perspective on a remarkable life and career that spanned much of the twentieth century. From her childhood in Edinburgh to her final years in Tuscany - via South Africa, London, New York and Rome - it traces a light-footed journey around the world and through her strange and magnificent bibliography. It tells an irresistible story of transformation, wit and fierce determination and makes a passionate case for this vital modern artist. 'You don't have to be a Muriel Spark fan to enjoy the sharp wit of Like a Cat Loves a Bird, a fascinating and nuanced exploration of the sacrifices some make to focus on their art'LUKE TURNER, author of Out of the Woods'Vital, fun and immediate . . . full of engaging and astute literary analysis of Spark's work as well as scintillating, vivid biography'FRANCESCA REECE, author of Glass Houses'A readable and fascinating book, about an under-appreciated literary giantLUCINDA HAWKSLEY, author of The Mystery of Princess Louise

Is true love the greatest form of magic?
Long ago, in a kingdom far away, the magician of tiger castle is on thin ice. Once the greatest in the land, Anatole's spells have dried up. He can't even turn sand into gold anymore.

But, Tullia has secretly fallen in love with a lowly apprentice scribe and refuses to wed the prince.

But, with the fate of the kingdom hanging in the balance, can he achieve it? Can he even bring himself to try? After all, is true love not the purest form of magic?
Told with the same wit and warmth that has made Louis Sachar's books classics of children's literature, The Magician of Tiger Castle is a colourful and enigmatic tale of adventure, love, loss and triumph.
