Science tells us grand things about the universe: how fast light travels, and why stones fall to earth. But scientific endeavour goes far beyond these obvious foundations. There are some fields we don't often hear about because they are so specialised, or turn out to be dead ends. Yet researchers have given hallucinogenic drugs to blind people (seriously), tried to weigh the soul as it departs the body and planned to blast a new Panama Canal with atomic weapons. Real scientific breakthroughs sometimes come out of the most surprising and unpromising work. How to Make a Tornado is about the margins of science - not the research down tried-and-tested routes, but some of its zanier and more brilliant by-ways. Investigating everything from what it's like to die, to exploding trousers and recycled urine, this book is a reminder that science is intensely creative and often very amusing - and when their minds run free, scientists can fire the imagination like nobody else.

"[an] imaginative debut..." - The New York Times "The Strange Inheritance of Leah Fern is a bittersweet and achingly tender coming of age novel. Like V. E. Schwab and Audrey Niffenegger, Rita Zoey Chin is an expert guide to that territory in which magic, loss, and possibility change not only the characters but the reader, too.” - Kelly Link, author of Get in Trouble The luminous story of a fiercely lonely young woman's quest to uncover the truth behind her mother’s disappearance . . . When 6-year-old empath Leah Fern—once “The Youngest and Very Best Fortune Teller in the World”—is abandoned by her beautiful magician mother, she is consumed with longing for her mother's return. Until something bizarre happens: On her 21st birthday Leah receives an inheritance from someone she doesn’t even know, and finds herself launched on a journey of magical discovery. It's a voyage that will spiral across the United States, Canada, into the Arctic Circle and beyond—and help her make her own life whole by piecing together the mystery surrounding her mother’s disappearance. The Strange Inheritance of Leah Fern is an enchanting novel about the transcendent power of the imagination, the magic at the threshold of past and present, and the will it takes to love.

The saga of the greatest tornado chaser who ever lived: a tale of obsession and daring and an extraordinary account of humanity’s high-stakes race to understand nature’s fiercest phenomenon from Brantley Hargrove, “one of today’s great science writers” (The Washington Post). At the turn of the twenty-first century, the tornado was one of the last true mysteries of the modern world. It was a monster that ravaged the American heartland a thousand times each year, yet science’s every effort to divine its inner workings had ended in failure. Researchers all but gave up, until the arrival of an outsider. In a field of PhDs, Tim Samaras didn’t attend a day of college in his life. He chased storms with brilliant tools of his own invention and pushed closer to the tornado than anyone else ever dared. When he achieved what meteorologists had deemed impossible, it was as if he had snatched the fire of the gods. Yet even as he transformed the field, Samaras kept on pushing. As his ambitions grew, so did the risks. And when he finally met his match—in a faceoff against the largest tornado ever recorded—it upended everything he thought he knew. Brantley Hargrove delivers a “cinematically thrilling and scientifically wonky” (Outside) tale, chronicling the life of Tim Samaras in all its triumph and tragedy. Hargrove takes readers inside the thrill of the chase, the captivating science of tornadoes, and the remarkable character of a man who walked the line between life and death in pursuit of knowledge. The Man Who Caught the Storm is an “adrenaline rush of a tornado chase…Readers from all across the spectrum will enjoy this” (Library Journal, starred review) unforgettable exploration of obsession and the extremes of the natural world.

A broken past and a divided future can’t stop the electric connection of two teens in this epic series opener from the author of the New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling Keeper of the Lost Cities series. Seventeen-year-old Vane Weston has no idea how he survived the category five tornado that killed his parents. And he has no idea if the beautiful, dark-haired girl who’s swept through his dreams every night since the storm is real. But he hopes she is. Seventeen-year-old Audra is a sylph, an air elemental. She walks on the wind, can translate its alluring songs, and can even coax it into a weapon with a simple string of commands. She’s also a guardian—Vane’s guardian—and has sworn an oath to protect Vane at all costs. Even if it means sacrificing her own life. When a hasty mistake reveals their location to the enemy who murdered both of their families, Audra’s forced to help Vane remember who he is. He has a power to claim—the secret language of the West Wind, which only he can understand. But unlocking his heritage will also unlock the memory Audra needs him to forget. And as the storm bears down on them, she starts to realize the greatest danger might not be the warriors coming to destroy them—but the forbidden romance that’s grown between them.

Nicky is a thirteen-year-old boy, the son of a merchant navy officer. He loves his father very much. As life goes on happily, a tragedy comes into their life when the pirates hijacked his father’s ship. Nicky's father is being held captive by pirates. The news upset Nicky. To comfort him, his grandmother tells him the story of a savior with supernatural powers who lives in the sea called Sea Lord. As Nicky was hopeless, he believed in that savior at that disturbing time. So he comes to the sea at night in search of that Savior, the Sea Lord. Upon reaching the shore, he decided, to travel a few distances in the ocean and call the Sea Lord. He found an old small wooden boat on the shore. He pushed the boat into the water. And then slowly moved forward on the swaying waves. On that journey across the ocean in a small boat, Nicky moved far from the shore in the flow of waves and reached the deep sea. Though unexpectedly he reached the middle of the ocean, Nicky had no fear at the thought of his father, who was waiting for death in front of the pirate’s gun. As his burning mind was with his father, he didn’t notice that he was in the middle of the ocean. In the serenity of the ocean visible in the light of the moonlight, he hopefully called his savior, the Sea lord. But no one heard his call. Time was running out. He continued that call with hope. He saw no one in the desolate sea. Fear and despair paralyzed him. At that moment, he drank a little water from the ocean without remembering that it was salty seawater. But to his surprise, he tasted the pure water. At the same time, he could see another wonderful thing, blue-colored water like a stream flowing on the surface of the ocean. His boat was on that current. He drank some more water from it again. In that amazing experience, he got a revival again by forgetting everything for a while. In that joy, he called his savior again. This time a large tortoise, his name was also Sea Lord, heard Nicky’s call and came near to his boat and started talking to him. When Nicky is amazed at seeing a talking tortoise, the tortoise tells him that Nicky had accidentally drunk the water of the mystic Alpharia River, which is the divine water of spirits that flows in the ocean. It is invisible to humans. As he has drunk the secret water, there will be some pros and cons as a result. He will be able to hear and talk to ocean creatures and other animals and birds, he can live in the water as he lives on the land, and he can see the roaming spirits. Likewise, there will be trouble, which is that he will be invisible to humans after five days. The tortoise also describes the complex way to get out of that invisibility. But nothing came to Nicky’s thought, which was melting over his father's condition in the clutches of pirates. He told the tortoise of his sad story. Seeing his grief, the tortoise called his friend, the leader of the seagulls, to find a way to help him. Meanwhile, a storm had formed in the ocean. Sea creatures saved Nicky from the storm, taking him on top of a dolphin to a secret mountain range called the Alpharia mountain range in the ocean, which is the source of the Alpharia River. It is a secret place invisible to humans. In the Alpharia mountain range, Nicky saw the soul of a Shaolin monk in the pool of spirits where the spirits came to drink water. Nicky told his story to the spirit and asked for help to save his father from pirates. As the monk was not able to come with Nicky, he taught Nicky a secret martial art called Dragon Kung Fu. Nicky and his ocean friends continue their journey finding a way to locate the ship that was hijacked by the pirates. At that time, another roaming spirit they found in the sea. Nicky requested his help. He gave a solution to find out the hijacked ship. Accordingly, Nicky and his team advanced quickly to locate the ship. At the end of that adventurous and complicated ocean journey, they reached the ship. With the help of the sea creatures, mainly the seagulls, Nicky confronts the pirates by showing his skill of Dragon Kung Fu that he learned from the Shaolin monk. He appears in front of the pirates as an epic character called the Lord of the Alpharia Ocean. Nicky subdues the pirates and releases his father and crew. Although Nicky was able to successfully carry out that mission with the abilities he gained by drinking the waters of the mysterious Alpharia River, there is a challenge to face, the invisibility that happens after five days. He will disappear from human sight. He knows that will be another tragedy for his family and for him To escape from that great trouble, he needs to find and drink special honey that can be seen in the icy Arctic tundra. His friends, the ocean creatures, comfort him by assuring their help in that mission. But before that, there were some more tasks he had to fulfill.

Former Tornado Navigator John Nichol tells the incredible story of the RAF Tornado force during the First Gulf War in 1991; the excitement and the danger, the fear and the losses. It is an extraordinary account of courage and fortitude. ‘We were doing about 620 miles-per-hour, 200 feet above the desert, in total darkness. Everything was running on rails as we approached the target. Then all hell broke loose. I remember the missile being fired at us; I broke left and shouted, “Chaff!” ‘All I could see was a flame, like a very large firework, coming towards me. Then there was a huge white flash. I remember an enormous wind and then I was knocked unconscious. My last thoughts were that I was going to die.’ In 1990, Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein ordered the invasion and occupation of neighbouring Kuwait, setting in motion a chain of events that had unimaginable political, military and personal repercussions, which still reverberate around the globe today. This is the story of the aircrew at the heart of Operation Desert Storm, almost none of whom had any prior experience of armed combat. It is the story of the Tornado’s missions, of those who did not return - and of the families who watched and waited as one of the most complex conflicts in recent history unfolded live on television. It is a story of untold fear and suffering, and astounding courage in the face of hitherto unimaginable adversity.

Featured as a top read in Buzzfeed, PopSugar, YourTango, and San Francisco Book Review TV weatherman Owen Martin is relieved to leave Southern California—the monotonously mild climate and the holistically hip trends—and head home to Iowa, back to the four seasons and the simple life he knew before his father died. But he can’t predict the atmospheric pressure awaiting him: The town his family founded has become the center of the Transcendental Meditation movement and host to all things alternative. There are mass meditations and dosha discussions, a vegan cafe has replaced the burger joint, and all the doors now face east. Far worse, however, is what the meditating mayor has planned for the Martin family’s farm. In a town divided between “Regulars” and “Roos” (gurus), Owen is sure where he stands—until he falls for a levitating yogi. Before he knows it, he’s caught in a veritable tornado of midwesternness vs. mindfulness. Can he save the farm, get the girl, and reunite the town? Maybe . . . if he’s willing to forecast a change in the weather.
