For millennia, we have tried to explain ourselves using the raven as a symbol. It occupies a unique place in British history and has left an indelible mark on our cultural landscape. The raven's hulking black shape has come to represent many things: death, all-seeing power, the underworld, and a wildness that remains deep within us. Legend has it that the fate of the nation rests upon the raven, and should the resident birds ever leave the Tower of London then the entire kingdom will fall. While so much of our wildlife is vanishing, ravens are returning to their former habitats after centuries of exile, moving back from their outposts at the very edge of the country, to the city streets from which they once scavenged the bodies of the dead. In A Shadow Above, Joe Shute follows ravens across their new hunting grounds, examining our complicated and challenging relationship with these birds. He meets people who live alongside the raven in conflict and peace, unpicks their fierce intelligence, and ponders what the raven's successful return might come to symbolise for humans in the dark times we now inhabit.

“My name is Árgoht Grandël and I come from Meledel. Do not call me a sorcerer. What I do has no name and should not be labeled. I do not accept vassalage, nor do I prostrate myself before any man or woman. I do my work quickly and honestly. When I fulfill my assignment, I collect my payment and you will not see me again. Ever. Once I am finished, I do not want thanks. With the payment we will be even, and no debts will remain between us. This is me and these are my conditions.” A shadow has littered the quiet village of Pranthas with corpses. King Yurt decides to resort to the services of the controversial sorcerer Árgoht Grandël to discover and eradicate that which has left that part of his kingdom deserted. But what the magician is going to find in Pranthas is very different from what was expected and, without wishing it, he is involved in an adventure that will affect even his Destiny. Thanks to his abilities and helped by unexpected companions, he will have to unveil the cloak of shadows and lies that seems to surround the kingdom of Ereth. First adventure of the sorcerer Árgoht Grandël, whose search for Destiny continues in "The curse of Hilena", "The black earth, The path of destiny, book 1" and "Paladin, The path of destiny, book 2".

The decaying town of Innsmouth, Massachusetts has an unhealthy reputation. Nearby citizens shun it. You won't find it on any maps. And the denizens just don't look right. They just don't. Maybe it's something in the water? Robert Loveless is trying to escape the lurking fear of insanity cursing his bloodline when his quest lures him to the town of Innsmouth. As Loveless wanders the tumbledown streets past homes and buildings of departed grandeur, he uncovers the town's awful past from a half-crazed old drunk named Zadok Allen. A shadow reaching out from before the dawn of history is haunting Innsmouth, and now that Loveless has learned the truth its denizens want him to stay there...forever. This graphic novel features an all-new authorized adaptation of one of H. P. Lovecraft's most popular weird tales by Steven Philip Jones (H. P. Lovecraft's Worlds, Lovecraftian) and Trey Baldwin (Ladies of Market Street), Lovecraft's seminal novella, a Lovecraft biography, and Jones's article on adapting Lovecraft into comics updated for this edition.

A story of determination, survival, and the indomitable human spirit, Above the Mountain's Shadow: A Journey of Hope and Adventure Inspired by the Forgotten is an incredible story of one woman's quest to empower the women of the world, one peak at a time. Growing up in Iran after the Islamic Revolution, Sara Safari enjoyed very few personal freedoms and little rights under the law, living an existence marked by oppression and limitations. In response to her childhood experiences, Sara was motivated to empower marginalized women everywhere--and what better way to show young girls that they can do anything than to stand on top of the world? This book recounts the exhilarating tale of Sara's climb to the top of Mount Everest, a journey fraught with obstacles and life-threatening peril. From having never climbed a mountain in her life to ascending Everest during a magnitude 7.8 earthquake, Sara's journey is as thrilling as it is inspirational.

"Vivid characters, terrifying monsters, and world building as deep and dark as the ocean." --Victoria Aveyard, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Red Queen I am Henrietta Howel. The first female sorcerer in hundreds of years. The prophesied one. Or am I? Henrietta Howel can burst into flames. Forced to reveal her power to save a friend, she's shocked when instead of being executed, she's invited to train as one of Her Majesty's royal sorcerers. Thrust into the glamour of Victorian London, Henrietta is declared the chosen one, the girl who will defeat the Ancients, bloodthirsty demons terrorizing humanity. She also meets her fellow sorcerer trainees, handsome young men eager to test her power and her heart. One will challenge her. One will fight for her. One will betray her. But Henrietta Howel is not the chosen one. As she plays a dangerous game of deception, she discovers that the sorcerers have their own secrets to protect. With battle looming, what does it mean to not be the one? And how much will she risk to save the city—and the one she loves? Exhilarating and gripping, Jessica Cluess's spellbinding fantasy introduces a powerful, unforgettably heroine, and a world filled with magic, romance, and betrayal. Hand to fans of Libba Bray, Sarah J. Maas, and Cassandra Clare. "The magic! The intrigue! The guys! We were sucked into this monster-ridden, alternative England from page one. Henrietta is literally a 'girl on fire' and this team of sorcerers training for battle had a pinch of Potter blended with a drop of [Cassandra Clare's] Infernal Devices." --Justine Magazine "Cluess gamely turns the chosen-one trope upside down in this smashing dark fantasy." --Publishers Weekly, Starred Review "Unputdownable. I loved the monsters, the magic, and the teen warriors who are their world's best hope! Jessica Cluess is an awesome storyteller!" --Tamora Pierce, #1 New York Times bestselling author "A fun, inventive fantasy. I totally have a book crush on Rook." --Sarah Rees Brennan, New York Times bestselling author "Pure enchantment. I love how Cluess turned the 'chosen one' archetype on its head. With the emotional intensity of my favorite fantasy books, this is the kind of story that makes you forget yourself." --Roshani Chokshi, New York Times bestselling author of The Star-Touched Queen "A glorious, fast-paced romp of an adventure. Jessica Cluess has built her story out of my favorite ingredients: sorcery, demons, romance, and danger." --Kelly Link, author of Pretty Monsters
