Half Boy. Half God. ALL Hero.
Most people get presents on their sixteenth birthday. I get a prophecy that could save or destroy the world.
It happens when you're the son of Poseidon, God of the Sea. According to an ancient prophecy, I turn sixteen and the fate of the entire world is on me. But no pressure.
Now Kronos, Lord of the Titans, is beginning his attack on New York City. And the dreaded monster Typhon is also heading our way. So it's me and forty of my demi-god friends versus untold evil . . .
Scattered by the tides of war, Princess Catherine leads a ragtag band of survivirs into the barren westeland of the Northern Plateau.
With enemies snapping at their heels, they are driven into the strange and deadly tunnels of the demon world.
But while Tash dares to go deeper, Catherine must return to the surface to confront a nation in turmoil - and her growing love for Ambrose. On the run from the law, Edyon and March grow closer even as their secrets threaten to tear them apart.
Years have passed since the love between Sephy - a Cross - and Callum - a Nought - destroyed their world and changed their families and society forever.
Society appears to be very different now. For the first time ever, a Nought Prime Minister - Tobey Durbridge - is in power. Race and class don't divide people anymore. But things are never really that easy.
Because Tobey's just been framed for murder, and the only way to free himself is to turn to his oldest friend - Callie-Rose.
Their families divisions run deep, and when two young people are kidnapped, their lives and everything they've fought for are put in the firing line.
And when you're playing a game as dangerous as this one, it won't be long before someone gets caught in the crossfire...
Four stories of myth, magic and adventure from the master teller of tales
The Firework Maker's Daughter
I Was A Rat!
Clockwork
The Scarecrow and His Servant
A devilish inventor, a girl who must face a Fire Fiend, a scarecrow brought to life by a bolt of lightning, and a boy who can only say the words 'I Was a Rat!' . . .
Drawing on the rich tradition of fairytales, these are four incredible stories that will obsess and enchant readers. Includes a prologue and epilogue from the uniquely talented Philip Pullman, author of His Dark Materials
It's 1952 and Soviet troops control British streets.
After the disastrous failure of D-Day, Britain is rescued by Russian and American soldiers. The two superpowers divide the nation between them, a wall running through London like a scar.
On the Soviet side of the wall, Jane Cawson suspects her husband, Nick, of secretly seeing his ex-wife, Lorelei, glamorous star of Soviet propaganda films.
But before Jane can confront them, Lorelei is murdered.
To her horror, Nick is arrested for the killing. Desperate to clear his name, Jane must risk the attention of the brutal secret police in order to discover the truth.
Evading them, her search uncovers a trail of corruption - and the higher it leads, the more dangerous it becomes…
The dead wreak revenge on the living, paintings come alive, spectral brides possess mortal men and a priest devours human flesh in these chilling Japanese ghost stories retold by a master of the supernatural. Lafcadio Hearn drew on the phantoms and ghouls of traditional Japanese folklore - including the headless 'rokuro-kubi', the monstrous goblins 'jikininki' or the faceless 'mujina' who stalk lonely neighbourhoods - and infused them with his own memories of his haunted childhood in nineteenth-century Ireland to create these terrifying tales of striking and eerie power. Today they are regarded in Japan as classics in their own right.
Edited with an introduction by Paul Murray
In Shiang, the young king rules without dissent. Swordsmen stand watch on every corner, looking for the first sign of rebellion.
Yet in one swift move, order is overturned.
The balance of centuries is undone in the sudden spill of blood - and in the darkness, something terrible returns to Shiang . . .
Far to the west, four Shiang masters approach the city walls of Darien. The sword saint and his companions have crossed a continent to bring an old man home for punishment.
And they will not be denied, even if the whole city stands in their way . . .
Fans of Joe Abercrombie, Bernard Cornwell and Game of Thrones will be gripped by this bloodthirsty adventure.
If you came across an absolutely remarkable thing at 3 a.m. in New York City, would you walk away . . . or do the one thing that would change your life forever?
The Carls just appeared. Coming home from work at three a.m., twenty-three-year-old April May stumbles across a giant sculpture. Delighted by its appearance and craftsmanship – like a ten-foot-tall Transformer wearing a suit of samurai armour – April and her friend Andy make a video with it, which Andy uploads to YouTube. The next day April wakes up to a viral video and a new life. News quickly spreads that there are Carls in dozens of cities around the world, and April, as their first documentarian, finds herself at the centre of an intense international media spotlight.
Now April has to deal with the pressure on her relationships, her identity and her safety that this new position brings, all while being on the front lines of the quest to find out not just what the Carls are, but what they want from us.
Compulsively entertaining and powerfully relevant, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing grapples with big themes, including how the social internet is changing fame, how our culture deals with fear, and how vilification and adoration follows a life in the public eye.
"This unputdownable story has everything--a well-imagined post-apocalyptic world, great characters, incredible suspense, and, of course, the fierce love of some very good dogs."--Kirkus Reviews (starred)
When a beloved family dog is stolen, her owner sets out on a life-changing journey through the ruins of our world to bring her back in this fiercely compelling tale of survival, courage, and hope. Perfect for readers of Station Eleven and The Girl With All the Gifts.
My name's Griz. My childhood wasn't like yours. I've never had friends, and in my whole life I've not met enough people to play a game of football.
My parents told me how crowded the world used to be, but we were never lonely on our remote island. We had each other, and our dogs.
Then the thief came.
There may be no law left except what you make of it. But if you steal my dog, you can at least expect me to come after you.
Because if we aren't loyal to the things we love, what's the point?

‘I expect this to be one of the most talked-about books of 2019’ Samantha Shannon, #1 bestselling author of The Priory of the Orange Tree
Pisarstwo Elżbiety Stankiewicz-Daleszyńskiej przypomina mroczną prozę Edgara Allana Poe. Pisane nocą, zawiera – mimo optymistycznych puent – niepokojące i nie zawsze realne kompozycje. Bo czyż jakakolwiek iluminacja jest w stanie rozświetlić wszystkie cienie, jakie kładą się na zmęczoną dniem ludzką ziemię po zachodzie słońca? Zawsze coś wyolbrzymi, zawsze coś zmodyfikuje… I być może w tym, w tej niezwykłej kreacji, zawiera się uroda i oryginalność Pani Eguckiej, bohaterki większości utworów, wręcz alter ego pisarki. Ta ekstrawagancka istota potrafi uwieść i poprowadzić czytelnika w przedziwne krainy duchów, zjaw, demonów, a ostatecznie wprowadzić na świetliste pola dobra, uczciwości, miłości. Tylko czy czytelnik dorówna szalonym peregrynacją Autorki.

KILEROM – przez jedno „L” pisanym
Czy można wierzyć w DUCHY? – zastanawiała się PANI EGUCKA, smutnym wzrokiem omiatając ściany swego APARTAMENTU, wytwornie wyłożone płytami NIDA GIPS przez pracowników Szlacheckiego-juniora, który to domostwo – budując je – wypieścił do perfekcji; wymoszczone nimi ściany miały urzekać aksamitną wręcz pańskością (aksamit pochodził przecież ze świata dostojnego – wręcz królewskiego), nowoczesną nieskazitelnością, a nakładane – wsycane weń barwniki farb żadnymi niecnymi smugami się nie miały kalać; owymi – jak to określała Stasia od św. ZYTY – DIABŁAMI stalować. Czystością olśniewać. To tak. DUCH? – zastanawiała się PANI EGUCKA – przywołując na pamięć swoje oczytanie, różnych (im grubsza tym lepiej!) KSIĄG penetrowanie; oooo... choćby ten kolejny już tom KOPALIŃSKIEGO, kupiony u bukinisty na Jeżyckim Rynku w Poznaniu za dziewięć (!) złotych polskich SŁOWNIK MITÓW I TRADYCJI KULTURY, 1500 stron (!) spopod stosu wypocin brukowcowych wydobyty i do domu przytargany... Otóż według KOPALIŃSKIEGO – PANI EGUCKA zapamiętała – DUCH oznaczał początkowo ODDECH, TCHNIENIE, właściwości odróżniającej człowieka ŻYWEGO od NIEBOSZCZYKA, po grecku pnéuma, po łacinie spiritus, angielski spirit, ghost. ESPRIT – ten wyraz się PANI EGUCKIEJ podobał najbardziej, bo był z francuskiego, toteż Cecylii PUCHÉ – jakże często go wykrzykiwała! – ESPRIT! to jest to! – teraz dopiero PANI EGUCKA dokładnie to zrozumiała… no i jeszcze po niemiecku... GEIST... aha! GOTHE! w pracowni FAUSTA to było, kiedy ten bluźnierczy DUCH PRZECZENIA się tam był objawił – ukazał… MEFISTO!!! – rozpędziła się w swoich rozważaniach PANI EGUCKA i może w Stasiny KOZI RÓG by się zapędziła, gdyby Stasia od św. ZYTY tam w GÓRZE rąk nie załamywała – załamała i jak zwykle nawoływała.

Football has come to the ancient city of Ankh-Morpork. And now, the wizards of Unseen University must win a football match, without using magic, so they're in the mood for trying everything else.
The prospect of the Big Match draws in a street urchin with a wonderful talent for kicking a tin can, a maker of jolly good pies, a dim but beautiful young woman, who might just turn out to be the greatest fashion model there has ever been, and the mysterious Mr Nutt (and no one knows anything much about Mr Nutt, not even Mr Nutt, which worries him, too). As the match approaches, four lives are entangled and changed for ever.
Because the thing about football - the important thing about football - is that it is not just about football.
Here we go! Here we go! Here we go!
Koom Valley, where the trolls ambushed the dwarfs, or the dwarfs ambushed the trolls, was a long time ago.
But if he doesn't solve the murder of just one dwarf, Commander Sam Vimes of Ankh-Morpork City Watch is going to see it fought again, right outside his office.
With his beloved Watch crumbling around him and war-drums sounding, he must unravel every clue, outwit every assassin and brave any darkness to find the solution. And darkness is following him.
Oh . . . and at six o'clock every day, without fail, with no excuses, he must go home to read 'Where's My Cow?', with all the right farmyard noises, to his little boy.
There are some things you have to do.

Time is a resource. Everyone knows it has to be managed.
And on Discworld that is the job of the Monks of History, who store it and pump it from the places where it's wasted (like underwater - how much time does a codfish need?) to places like cities, where there's never enough time.
But the construction of the world's first truly accurate clock starts a race against, well, time for Lu Tze and his apprentice Lobsang Ludd. Because it will stop time. And that will only be the start of everyone's problems.

Now he must cope with the traditional perils of a journalist's life - people who want him dead, a recovering vampire with a suicidal fascination for flash photography, some more people who want him dead in a different way and, worst of all, the man who keeps begging him to publish pictures of his humorously shaped potatoes.
William just wants to get at THE TRUTH. Unfortunately, everyone else wants to get at William. And it's only the third edition...

'Anything you do in the past changes the future. The tiniest little actions have huge consequences. You might tread on an ant now and it might entirely prevent someone from being born in the future.'
There's nothing like the issue of evolution to get under the skin of academics. Even if their field of expertise is magic rather than biology. With the best and most interfering minds of Unseen University somehow left in charge at a critical evolutionary turning point, the Discworld’s last continent needs a saviour…
Who is this hero striding across the red desert? Sheep shearer, beer drinker, bush ranger, and someone who'll even eat a Meat Pie Floater when he's sober.
In fact, it's Rincewind, a wizard so inept he can't even spell wizard. He's the only hero left.
