are way more deadly than
one.. . Two more about to

The adventures of Geralt
the Witcher continue in
this second novel in the
bestselling Witcher
series that inspired the
Netflix show and video
games. The kings and
armies are manoeuvring
for position, each
fearing invasion from
across the river, each
fearing their neighbours
more. Intrigue, dissent
and rebellion fester on
all sides. After decades
of oppression, the elves
and other races are
fighting each other and
attacking the humans -
and with growing numbers
preparing for battle,
the threat of all-out war
looms ever greater.
Against this backdrop of
fear, Geralt and
Yennefer must protect
Ciri, the orphaned heir
who is sought by all
sides. For the child of
prophecy has the power to
change the world - if she
lives to use it.

Casper became a national
celebrity when newspapers
ran the story of the
amazing cat that
regularly took the No. 3
bus on journeys around
his home town, Plymouth,
in Devon. While his
devoted owner Sue Finden
had wondered where her
elusive pet was
disappearing to each day,
Casper was brightening
the lives of countless
commuters. Bus drivers,
too, were getting
well-acquainted with
Casper, and notices went
up in their depot
alerting staff that a
very special passenger
might board their
vehicle. In fact, he
became a mascot for the
bus company, and
pictures of him and Susan
adorned No. 3 buses. When
Casper was sadly killed
by a car in early 2010
messages of sympathy
flooded in from places as
far a field as Australia
and Argentina. It quickly
became clear that Casper
and his remarkable story
had touched the lives of
many people around the
world. Movingly told by
the owner who loved him
dearly, Casper the
Commuting Cat is the
touching story of a very
special black-and-white
cat who rode the bus and
stole our hearts. This
book has 288 pages and is

With her bobbed, blonde
hair and flashing smile,
Doris Day was portrayed
as the girl next door ? a
virginal girl that you
could take home to your
parents. In real life,
she was not quite the
happy-go-lucky blonde
with the bubbly
personality promoted by
Warner Brothers who
simply wanted to market
her as a commodity.
Married young, to a
violent bully, and with
a child, Day had to work
hard, touring with
bands, to get her start
in showbusiness. A
reluctant star, all
Doris Day wanted to do
was settle down to a
happy, simple life but
somehow managed to always
attract the wrong kind of
men ? thugs and crooks
who took their anger out
on her. And yet this
didn?t stop her from
enjoying sexual exploits
with a number of leading
men. She worked hard ?
not to become a success
but for a job ? and yet
her manager managed to
defraud her of millions.
How could this happen to
such a smart lady ?
perhaps she was too
trusting? In this
revealing biography,
David Bret takes a
fascinating look at the
trials and tribulations
behind what seemed to her
adoring fans to be the
perfect woman. From her
German Jewish parents to
her donation to an
airlift of cats and dogs
in Louisiana, as well as
full discography and film
lists, this is a
captivating look at a
resilient American icon.
David Bret was born in
Paris and is a leading
celebrity biographer. His
many acclaimed books
include biographies of
Marlene Dietrich, Gracie
Fields, Freddie Mercury,
Tallulah Bankhead,
Maria Callas, Rudolph
Valentino, Edith Piaf
and Joan Crawford. He
lives in Yorkshire.

Read by Rupert Degas. A
cargo ship is apprehended
by the authorities off
the coast of Spain,
loaded to the gunwales
with enough arms and
ammunition to start a
war. Twenty years later,
an unknown aggressor
seems intent on
eradicating those
responsible for the
treachery, one by one.
The last victim was
brutally tortured with a
Black & Decker drill,
then shot through the
head. And Nick Stone -
ex-SAS, tough,
resourceful, ruthless,
highly trained - is next
on the killer's list...
The fuse is lit, and
Stone is catapulted into
his most daunting mission
yet - a quest that takes
him across two
continents, and into the
darker recesses of his
own complex past. But
first he must find a man
who shared that past,
and who may know more
about the present threat
than he is prepared to
reveal. As the two find
themselves pursued across
sea and desert, they
become ever more enmeshed
in a deadly network of
betrayal, to which Stone
himself unwittingly holds
the key. And in a final
confrontation that echoes
his worst nightmares,
only he can stop the
unthinkable and save the
lives of those he holds
most dear.

Pick up your parrots and
monkeys, and fall in
facing the boat' was the
traditional last order
given to a detachment of
British soldiers heading
home from India. William
Pennington first heard it
from the 'old salts' he
met on the docks as he
arrived in India at the
age of 15. Joining up at
the tender age of 14,
William had been
intrigued by the army's
promise of adventure and
glory, and by the chance
to see the most exotic
corners of the world.
After training at the
Boy's Depot in Woolwich,
he became a bugler in the
horse artillery, and was
posted to India in the
1930s, where life was
little changed from the
days of Kipling. Within
years however, the
British would accept the
end of the Raj and leave
India forever. After a
brief recall to Britain,
Pennington was posted to
Burma as a forward
observation officer at
the very forefront of the
action against the
Japanese. It was for this
role in this devastating
campaign that he was to
win the Military Cross
for bravery in the
battlefield.

During the War of

Gallagher was interned in
Mountjoy where he took
part in a mass
hunger-strike of
republican prisoners
demanding political
status. Gallagher's
remarkable diary reveals
his internal conflict
during the hunger strike
in April 1920. He
describes a 'double
personality', one half
bent on self-preservation
and the other on
sacrifice. On the tenth
day, he almost
surrendered, but what
kept him resolute was
shame before his fellow
hunger strikers. 'If
there were an honorable
way of escape, I should
be glad...I'm afraid to
die, and I'm going to
die because I'm afraid
not to...The papers will
call me a hero and a
martyr...a miserable,
frightened fool, who
hadn't the courage not to
die.'
