Following the collapse of his business and the loss of his home, Frank Kane made a catastrophic decision. In desperation, he agreed to smuggle cocaine out of Venezuela. Almost inevitably, he and his girlfriend, Sam, were caught. The price they paid was a ten-year sentence in the hell of the overcrowded Venezuelan prison system, notorious for corruption and abuse, and rife with weapons and gangs. At one point, Frank was held in the remote El Dorado prison, better known for being the one-time home of Henri Charrière, or Papillon. He witnessed countless murders as gang leaders fought for power, and he had to become as ruthless as his fellow inmates in order to survive. In an attempt to dull the reality of the horrendous conditions, he succumbed to drugs. After enduring years of systematic beatings by the guards and attempts on his life by inmates, Frank suffered more than one breakdown. He lost over four stone and was riddled with disease, but somehow he found the strength within himself to survive and was eventually released in 2004 after serving over seven years of his sentence. During the long walk back from hell, Frank decided to tell his story.

Hanya ada satu aturan: keheningan absolut. Tidak boleh ada interaksi, tidak boleh ada percakapan. Penjara tidak “melunakkan”, penjara bertugas menghancurkan—fisik dan mental. Meracuni benak, menindas harapan, hingga tidak ada lagi yang tersisa selain rasa takut, dan kematian menjadi pilihan yang lebih masuk akal. Kabur dari neraka berjeruji itu menjadi satu-satunya tujuan hidup Henri Charrière. Berkali-kali gagal, berkali-kali kembali tertangkap, tetap tak melunturkan tekadnya mendapatkan kebebasan. “Aku harus membuktikan bahwa aku bisa, bahwa aku adalah, dan akan menjadi manusia normal. Barangkali tidak lebih baik, tetapi yang jelas tidak lebih buruk daripada yang lain.” Kisah perjuangan hidup Henri dituangkan dalam buku sensasional ini, yang terjual lebih dari 1,5 juta kopi di Prancis sejak perilisannya.

In the Shadow of the Towers compiles nearly twenty works of speculative fiction responding to and inspired by the events of 9/11, from writers seeking to confront, rebuild, and carry on, even in the face of overwhelming emotion. Writer and editor Douglas Lain presents a thought-provoking anthology featuring a variety of award-winning and best-selling authors, from Jeff VanderMeer (Annihilation) and Cory Doctorow (Little Brother) to Susan Palwick (Flying in Place) and James Morrow (Towing Jehovah). Touching on themes as wide-ranging as politics, morality, and even heartfelt nostalgia, today’s speculative fiction writers prove that the rubric of the fantastic offers an incomparable view into how we respond to tragedy. Each contributor, in his or her own way, contemplates the same question: How can we continue dreaming in the shadow of the towers? Skyhorse Publishing, under our Night Shade and Talos imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of titles for readers interested in science fiction (space opera, time travel, hard SF, alien invasion, near-future dystopia), fantasy (grimdark, sword and sorcery, contemporary urban fantasy, steampunk, alternative history), and horror (zombies, vampires, and the occult and supernatural), and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller, a national bestseller, or a Hugo or Nebula award-winner, we are committed to publishing quality books from a diverse group of authors.

The Ultimate History of Northern Soul. Young Soul Rebels is the intimate story of Britain's most fascinating underground music scene – northern soul. Stuart Cosgrove has been a well-known collector on the scene for decades, and here he takes the reader on a rollercoaster journey to the heart of this secret society: the iconic clubs – The Twisted Wheel, The Torch, Wigan Casino and the Blackpool Mecca, the infamous bootleggers, and the DJs and crate-digging collectors who voyaged to America to unearth rare sounds. The book sweeps across fifty years of social and cultural history, taking in the rise of amphetamine culture, the brutal policing of the youth scene, the north–south divide, the rise of Thatcherism and the miners' strike, and concludes with a picture of northern soul today: as popular now as it was in its 1970s heyday.

Book #2 in the three-book saga of a woman on the run. (This ongoing story begins in “Who Hates Marigold Flowers”, Book #1, and concludes in “Bury Me in Paradise”, Book #3.) In Book #1, the former Marigold Flowers was booted out of WitSec when she was suspected of orchestrating the attempted murder of a US Marshal. Luckily, she found sanctuary with the two younger Cornwall brothers. Jackson and Lincoln kept her out of the hands of determined contract killers with the help of family and friends. Now in Book #2, it’s time for the oldest Cornwall brother to delve into her past and find out who murdered her fiancé. Having shed her old identity, the reborn Olivia Michaud is determined to prove her innocence. There's only one problem. All the available evidence seems to indicate her guilt. Forced to flee yet again, this time with a new team of protectors, she's still tormented by the death of the man she planned to marry. Was it her fault Jared Spears was brutally murdered? Did it have something to do with her secret past? Jefferson Cornwall, the prickly and demanding best-selling thriller author and TV producer, is hardly a pushover when it comes to taking on a woman with contract killers out to get her. But he can't make up his mind about her involvement in the crimes. Sparks fly between them, complicating the case, as they spar over the truth and their attraction to one another. Will he abandon her just when the mastermind of this convoluted plot gets close enough to destroy her?

**WINNER OF THE MAYA ANGELOU AWARD** A Massachusetts Book Award "Fiction Honor" An extraordinary literary debut about a Nigerian boy's secret intersex identity and his desire to live as a girl. Oto leaves for boarding school with one plan: excel and escape his cruel home. Falling in love with his roommate was certainly not on the agenda, but fear and shame force him to hide his love and true self. Back home, weighed down by the expectations of their wealthy and powerful family, the love of Oto's twin sister wavers and, as their world begins to crumble around them, Oto must make drastic choices that will alter the family's lives for ever. Richly imagined with art, proverbs and folk tales, this moving and modern novel follows Oto through life at home and at boarding school in Nigeria, through the heartbreak of living as a boy despite their profound belief they are a girl, and through a hunger for freedom that only a new life in the United States can offer. An Ordinary Wonder is a powerful coming-of-age story that explores complex desires as well as challenges of family, identity, gender, and culture, and what it means to feel whole.
