Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on
the doormat at number four, Privet Drive. Addressed in green ink on yellowish
parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt
and uncle. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a
man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a
wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An
incredible adventure is about to begin!

weep with King Midas and hunt with the beautiful and ferocious Artemis.

When the Knight Bus crashes through the darkness and screeches to a halt in
front of him, it's the start of another far from ordinary year at Hogwarts for

Voldemort, is on the run - and they say he is coming after Harry. In his first
ever Divination class, Professor Trelawney sees an omen of death in Harry's tea
leaves.... But perhaps most terrifying of all are the Dementors patrolling the
school grounds, with their soul-sucking kiss....

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if
he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he
doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of
his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for
a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of
miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant,
living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also
known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of
candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when
you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a
heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate
them.

world's only completely accurate book of prophecies, written in 1655, before she
exploded), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before

Summers span decades. Winter can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron
Throne has begun. As Warden of the north, Lord Eddard Stark counts it a curse
when King Robert bestows on him the office of the Hand. His honour weighs him
down at court where a true man does what he will, not what he must...and a dead
enemy is a thing of beauty. The old gods have no power in the south, Stark’s
family is split and there is treachery at court. Worse, the vengeance-mad heir
of the deposed Dragon King has grown to maturity in exile in the Free Cities. He
claims the Iron Throne.

The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark
Lord, dwelt in Middle-earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the
recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor.
Included on the recording are several shorter works. The Ainulindalë is a myth
of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods
is described. The Akallabêth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom
of Númenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the
great events at the end of the Third Age.

When the flow of desperately needed weapons for the Astra Militarum slows to
nothing from a newly founded forge world, there’s only one man able and
(un)willing to investigate…Ciaphas Cain, Hero of the Imperium. With Cain’s
desperately sought-after retirement on the line, the Imperium’s most reluctant
commissar must navigate insidious assassination attempts against his person,
legions of mutinous skitarii, heresy within the upper echelons of the Adeptus
Mechanicus itself… and a hidden foe, pulling the strings, with an agenda that
could threaten the future of Imperial rule in the Damocles Gulf.

It’s amazing what the lack of immediate threat to one’s life and wellbeing can
do for a person’s disposition. High risk, high reward endeavors suddenly seem
far less appealing, month-long delays are no longer a cause for concern, and
sleeping in every single day of the week becomes an extremely attractive
proposition. Indeed, without a pressing need to aggressively expand its power,
Boxxy T. Morningwood is finally able to simply sit back, enjoy life, and watch
the world both turn and burn.

According to mythology, mankind used to live in 'The Tranquiline Halls': heaven.
But then the Voidbringers assaulted and captured heaven, casting out God and
men. Men took root on Roshar, the world of storms, but the Voidbringers
followed. The Almighty gave men powerful suits of armor and mystical weapons,
the Shardblades. Led by 10 angelic Heralds and 10 orders of knights known as
Radiants, mankind finally won (or so the legends say).

Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a
parallel time and place that might sound and smell very much like our own, but
which looks completely different. Particularly as it’s carried though space on
the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown). It plays by different rules. But then,
some things are the same everywhere. The Disc’s very existence is about to be
threatened by a strange new blight: the world’s first tourist, upon whose
survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land.

meets a dog named Radar and his aging master, Howard Bowditch, a recluse in a
big house at the top of a big hill, with a locked shed in the backyard.
Sometimes strange sounds emerge from it.

night, close by, the lifeless body of a young woman is pulled from a river.
Slipping upstairs to find the special gift for her adoring husband, Maggie
stumbles across something else hidden amongst the dusty boxes of family
keepsakes.

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t
recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond
bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her
inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and
the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the
silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She
looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s
girlfriend. And this is his son.'

'I've written three books and our deal is over.' That's what reluctant author
Anthony Horowitz tells ex-detective Daniel Hawthorne in an awkward meeting. The
truth is that Anthony has got other things on his mind. His new play, a thriller
called Mindgame, is about to open at the famous Vaudeville theatre in
Shoreditch. Not surprisingly, Hawthorne declines a ticket to the opening night.
The play is not enjoyed by the critics. In particular, Sunday Times critic
Harriet Throsby gives it a savage review, focusing particularly on the writing.

The Manipulator. I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me. I will
make you hurt, make you cry, make you laugh and sigh. But my words don't affect
him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave. He's always there, watching
and waiting. And I can never look away. Not when I want him to come closer. The
Shadow. I didn't mean to fall in love. But now that I have, I can't stay away.
I'm mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves. I'll keep
watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine. And once she is, I'll never let
her go.

As one of just a few judges licensed to try murder cases at the Old Bailey, the
author has presided over many of the high-profile cases that all too often grab
our attention in dramatic media headlines—for every unlawful death tells a
story. But, unlike most of us, a judge doesn't get to turn the page and move on.
Nor does the defendant, or the family of the victim, nor the many other people
who populate the court room. Peeling apart six dramatic murder and manslaughter
cases, Unlawful Killings removes this distinction between 'them' and 'us'.

she begins to discover the horrors of her childhood, recluse Sally steps into
the world for the first time, making new friends, finding independence, and
learning that people don't always mean what they say.

Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would
be the first to point out that there is no such thing. But it's the early 1960s
and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute take a very unscientific
view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant
Nobel-prize-nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her
mind. True chemistry results.

spot each other eight years later in a crowded train station, they are
catapulted back to that moment. The spark is immediate, and together they get to
work on what they love—making games.

Throne has begun. As Warden of the north, Lord Eddard Stark counts it a curse
when King Robert bestows on him the office of the Hand. His honour weighs him

The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark
Lord, dwelt in Middle-earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the
recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor.
Included on the recording are several shorter works. The Ainulindalë is a myth
of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods
is described. The Akallabêth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom
of Númenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the
great events at the end of the Third Age.

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t
recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond
bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her
inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and
the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the
silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She
looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s
girlfriend. And this is his son.'

It’s amazing what the lack of immediate threat to one’s life and wellbeing can
do for a person’s disposition. High risk, high reward endeavors suddenly seem
far less appealing, month-long delays are no longer a cause for concern, and
sleeping in every single day of the week becomes an extremely attractive
proposition. Indeed, without a pressing need to aggressively expand its power,
Boxxy T. Morningwood is finally able to simply sit back, enjoy life, and watch
the world both turn and burn.

confronted the moral consequences of scientific progress. When he proposed
international controls over atomic materials, opposed the development of the
hydrogen bomb, and criticized plans for a nuclear war, his ideas were anathema
to powerful advocates of a massive nuclear buildup during the anti-Communist
hysteria of the early 1950s.

The story of Troy speaks to all of us - the kidnapping of Helen, a queen
celebrated for her beauty, sees the Greeks launch a thousand ships against the
city of Troy, to which they will lay siege for 10 whole and very bloody years.
It is Zeus, the king of the gods, who triggers the war when he asks the Trojan
prince Paris to judge the fairest goddess of them all. Aphrodite bribes Paris
with the heart of Helen, wife of King Menelaus of the Greeks, and naturally,
nature takes its course.

understanding of world history is changing, as new discoveries are made on all
the continents and old prejudices are being challenged. In this truly global
journey, Andrew Marr revisits some of the traditional epic stories, from
classical Greece and Rome to the rise of Napoleon, but surrounds them with less

In 1999, when Tom O’Neill was assigned a magazine piece about the 30th
anniversary of the Manson murders, he worried there was nothing new to say.
Weren’t the facts indisputable? Charles Manson had ordered his teenage followers
to commit seven brutal murders, and in his thrall, they’d gladly complied. But
when O’Neill began reporting the story, he kept finding holes in the prosecutor
Vincent Bugliosi’s narrative, long enshrined in the best-selling Helter Skelter.
Before long, O’Neill had questions about everything from the motive to the
manhunt.

For centuries, fame and fortune was to be found in the west—in the New World of
the Americas. Today, it is the east which calls out to those in search of
adventure and riches. The region stretching from eastern Europe and sweeping
right across Central Asia deep into China and India, is taking centre stage in
international politics, commerce and culture—and is shaping the modern world.
This region, the true centre of the earth, is obscure to many in the
English-speaking world. Yet this is where civilization itself began, where the
world’s great religions were born and took root.

In a forbidding Gothic castle on a hilltop in the heart of Nazi Germany, an

escapes from their Nazi captors. Or so the story of Colditz has gone,
unchallenged for 70 years. But that tale contains only part of the truth. The
astonishing inside story, revealed for the first time by best-selling historian
Ben Macintyre, is a tale of the indomitable human spirit, but also one of class
conflict, homosexuality, espionage, insanity and farce.

Osage Indian nation in Oklahoma. After oil was discovered beneath their land,
they rode in chauffeured automobiles, built mansions, and sent their children to
study in Europe. Then, one by one, the Osage began to be killed off. The family
of an Osage woman, Mollie Burkhart, became a prime target. Her relatives were
shot and poisoned. And this was just the beginning, as more and more members of

recruitment, training, and operational detachments, First into Action takes us
on a journey through the SBS's history, operations and tactics seen through the
lens of Duncan Falconer's remarkable story.

The battle for Stalingrad became the focus of Hitler and Stalin's determination
to win the gruesome, vicious war on the eastern front. The citizens of
Stalingrad endured unimaginable hardship; the battle, with fierce hand-to-hand
fighting in each room of each building, was brutally destructive to both armies.
But the eventual victory of the Red Army, and the failure of Hitler's Operation
Barbarossa, was the first defeat of Hitler's territorial ambitions in Europe and
the start of his decline.

in moderation. What's their secret? Join the inimitable Chiles as he sets out
around Britain and plumbs his only slightly fuzzy memories of a lifetime in pubs
in a quest to find the good drinker within.

On 28th January 1742, a ramshackle vessel of patched-together wood and cloth
washed up on the coast of Brazil. Inside were thirty emaciated men, barely
alive, and they had an extraordinary tale to tell. They were survivors of His
Majesty’s ship The Wager, a British vessel that had left England in 1740 on a
secret mission during an imperial war with Spain. While chasing a Spanish
treasure-filled galleon, The Wager was wrecked on a desolate island off the
coast of Patagonia.

Hailed as the most compelling biography of the German dictator yet written, Ian
Kershaw's Hitler brings us closer than ever before to the heart of its subject's
immense darkness. From his illegitimate birth in a small Austrian village to his
fiery death in a bunker under the Reich chancellery in Berlin, Adolf Hitler left
a murky trail, strewn with contradictory tales and overgrown with self-created
myths. One truth prevails: the sheer scale of the evils that he unleashed on the
world has made him a demonic figure without equal in the 20th century.

Sixteen hundred years ago, Britain left the Roman Empire and swiftly fell into
ruin. Grand cities and luxurious villas were deserted and left to crumble, and
civil society collapsed into chaos. Into this violent and unstable world came
foreign invaders from across the sea and established themselves as its new
masters. The Anglo-Saxons traces the turbulent history of these people across
the next six centuries. It explains how their earliest rulers fought
relentlessly against each other for glory and supremacy and then were almost
destroyed by the onslaught of the Vikings.

For all its successes, mainstream medicine has failed to make much progress
against the diseases of ageing that kill most people: heart disease, cancer,
Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. Too often, it intervenes with
treatments too late, prolonging lifespan at the expense of quality of life. Dr
Peter Attia, the world's top longevity expert who is featured on Chris
Hemsworth's National Geographic documentary Limitless, believes we must replace
this outdated framework with a personalised, proactive strategy for longevity.

lengthening to-do lists, our overfilled inboxes, the struggle against
distraction and the sense that our attention spans are shrivelling. Yet we
rarely make the conscious connection that these problems only trouble us in the
first place, thanks to the ultimate time-management problem: the challenge of
how best to use our 4,000 weeks. Four Thousand Weeks is an uplifting, engrossing

We tend to believe that normality equals health. Yet what is the norm in the

Europeans suffer high blood pressure, and nearly 70 percent of Americans take at
least one prescription drug. Illness and trauma are defining how we live. In his
new masterpiece, renowned physician, addiction expert and author Gabor Maté
dissects the underlying causes of this malaise—physical and emotional, and
connects the dots between our personal suffering and the pressures of modern-day

Sleep is one of the most important aspects of our life, health and longevity and
yet it is increasingly neglected in 21st century society, with devastating
consequences: every major disease in the developed world - Alzheimer's, cancer,
obesity, diabetes - has very strong causal links to deficient sleep. Until very
recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it
served, or why its absence is so damaging to our health. Compared to the other
basic drives in life - eating, drinking and reproducing - the purpose of sleep
remained elusive.

boyfriends and is good at eye contact. This is a story of how being female can

In Thinking, Fast and Slow, Kahneman takes us on a ground-breaking tour of the
mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think and make choices.
One system is fast, intuitive and emotional; the other is slower, more
deliberative and more logical. Kahneman exposes the extraordinary
capabilities-and also the faults and biases-of fast thinking and reveals the
pervasive influence of intuitive impressions on our thoughts and behaviour.

Why have we lost our ability to focus? What are the causes? And, most
importantly, how do we get it back? For Stolen Focus, internationally
best-selling author Johann Hari went on a three-year journey to uncover the
reasons why our teenagers now focus on one task for only 65 seconds, and why
office workers on average manage only three minutes. He interviewed the leading
experts in the world on attention and learned that everything we think about
this subject is wrong.

Davinia Taylor was overweight, depressed and unmotivated. She couldn't walk
around the block, let alone go for a run or do an exercise class, and she
struggled to keep up with her four young sons. In desperation she turned to
biohacking to sort her head out - the unexpected bonus was that she lost nearly
three stone and has kept it off for years through a series of health tricks from
cold showers, to MCT oil, to ancestral eating.

During pregnancy, childbirth, and early motherhood, women undergo a far-reaching
physiological, psychological and social metamorphosis. In this ground-breaking,
deeply personal investigation, acclaimed journalist and author Lucy Jones brings
to light the emerging concept of 'matrescence'. Drawing on new research across
various fields - neuroscience and evolutionary biology; psychoanalysis and
existential therapy; sociology, economics and ecology - Jones shows how the
changes in the maternal mind, brain and body are far more profound, wild and
enduring than we have been led to believe.

what the princes must be thinking and feeling - and how their lives would play

endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are
invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even
showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her

I've been in this life for 50 years, been trying to work out its riddle for 42
and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last 35. Notes about
successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel and things
that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to
have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man.
How to have meaning in life. How to be more me.

hypocrisy wherever she saw it. She remained that way for over three decades.

It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys,
two princes, walking behind their mother's coffin as the world watched in sorrow
- and horror. As Diana, Princess of Wales, was laid to rest, billions wondered
what the princes must be thinking and feeling - and how their lives would play
out from that point on. For Harry, this is that story at last.

Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her
mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do
anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called
“calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She
endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are
invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even
showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her
income.

and then some more stories about how I got less mad and more happy. If that's

J. Robert Oppenheimer was one of the iconic figures of the 20th century, a
brilliant physicist who led the effort to build the atomic bomb but later
confronted the moral consequences of scientific progress. When he proposed
international controls over atomic materials, opposed the development of the
hydrogen bomb, and criticized plans for a nuclear war, his ideas were anathema
to powerful advocates of a massive nuclear buildup during the anti-Communist
hysteria of the early 1950s.

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

As one of just a few judges licensed to try murder cases at the Old Bailey, the
author has presided over many of the high-profile cases that all too often grab
our attention in dramatic media headlines—for every unlawful death tells a
story. But, unlike most of us, a judge doesn't get to turn the page and move on.
Nor does the defendant, or the family of the victim, nor the many other people
who populate the court room. Peeling apart six dramatic murder and manslaughter
cases, Unlawful Killings removes this distinction between 'them' and 'us'.

society. A lifetime of care takes us from delusional disorders to schizophrenia,
steroid abuse to drug dependency, personality disorders to paedophilia, and
depression so severe a mother can kill her own baby. These are the human stories
behind the headlines. The reality of a life spent working with patients with the

In her memoir, a work of deep reflection and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle
Obama invites listeners into her world, chronicling the experiences that have
shaped her - from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an
executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work to her time spent at the
world's most famous address. With unerring honesty and lively wit, she describes
her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private, telling her full
story as she has lived it - in her own words and on her own terms.

As the country's top forensic pathologist, Dr Richard Shepherd has spent a
lifetime uncovering the secrets of the dead. When death is sudden or

them. Through his skill, dedication and insight, Dr Shepherd solves the puzzle
to answer our most pressing question: how did this person die?
