Once upon a time there was a girl who was special. This is not her story. Unless you count the part where I killed her.

Thriller set in the late 21st century. A vampire-like disease called hemophagia creates a subculture of genetically-modified humans. These humans have enhanced speed, incredible stamina & acute intelligence. As they are set apart from 'normal, healthy' humans, the world is pushed to the brink of worldwide civil war aimed at the destruction of the diseased population. In the middle of this crossfire is an infected woman, Ultraviolet (Milla Jovovich), who finds herself protecting a nine-year-old boy who has been marked for death by the human government as he is believed to be a threat to humans. ...

James Joyce's astonishing masterpiece, Ulysses, tells of the diverse events which befall Leopold Bloom & Stephen Dedalus in Dublin on 16 June 1904, during which Bloom's voluptuous wife, Molly, commits adultery. Initially deemed obscene in England & the USA, this richly-allusive novel, revolutionary in its Modernistic experimentalism, was hailed as a work of genius by W. B. Yeats, T. S. Eliot & Ernest Hemingway. Scandalously frank, wittily erudite, mercurially eloquent, resourcefully comic & generously humane, Ulysses offers the reader a life-changing experience. ...

Unapologetic is a brief, witty, personal, sharp-tongued defence of Christian belief, taking on Dawkins' The God Delusion & Christopher Hitchens' God is Not Great. But it isn't an argument that Christianity is true
- because how could anyone know that (or indeed its opposite)? It's an argument that Christianity is recognisable, drawing on the deep & deeply ordinary vocabulary of human feeling, satisfying those who believe in it by offering a ruthlessly realistic account of the bits of our lives advertising agencies prefer to ignore. It's a book for believers who are fed up with being patronised, for non-believers curious about how faith can possibly work in the twenty-first century, & for anyone who feels there is something indefinably wrong, literalistic, anti-imaginative & intolerant about the way the atheist case is now being made. Fresh, provoking & unhampered by niceness, this is the long-awaited riposte to the smug emissaries of New Atheism.
