On the east coast of Ireland thirteen-year old Finn finds the sword of a slain Norseman, and with Odin's raven watching, is given the name Stormcrow. When Finn's family is torn apart by a random act of violence, and the sword lost, he embarks on a quest for revenge with his oldest friend, the shaman Vekel. It is a path that will lead to the court of the High King of Ireland, Máel Sechnaill, and to the Norse city of Dyflin, ruled by Sigtrygg Silkbeard. Crewing on a longship, Stormcrow raids up and down the Irish coastline, seeking not just riches but vengeance for his murdered father. Against a backdrop of political alliances made and broken, battles won and lost, Stormcrow's life as a Norse raider seems certain until he meets Sigtrygg's new wife. In the eye of the storm, Stormcrow dices with death yet again. Only the gods know if he will survive.

'An epic tale that never loses sight of the raw experience of the hero. I loved Napoleon's Spy' Simon Scarrow 'Napoleon's Spy is a tour de force on an epic scale' Douglas Jackson 'Exciting, immersive, well researched and great fun.' Giles Kristian Russia, 1812. Has France finally met its match? On the eve of the invasion of Russia, half-French, half-English Matthieu Carrey finds himself in the ranks of Napoleon's five hundred thousand strong army. With Tsar Alexander seemingly ill-prepared, a French victory seems certain. The Grande Armée will obliterate everything in its path. Carrey's purpose is less clear. Blackmailed into becoming a spy in the emperor's army, he hopes to follow his lover, a French actress who has gone to work in the Moscow theatre. As supplies grow scarce and temperatures plummet, the Grande Armée begins to crumble. Caught up in the maelstrom of war, Carrey embarks on an epic journey, while the Russians circle like hungry wolves. Hundreds of miles lie between Carrey and safety. To reach it seems utterly impossible.

Charles Frode's 3rd short story collection, concentrated, bitter and benignly pessimistic squeezings from the season's harvest, the ripest leftover fruit gleaned after the sweetest fruit has been picked, mystical gumbos of differently stirred dimensions of experience. Several stories written by the ""You"" narrator, could be you, the reader, or Frode, the author. Three apocalyptic stories of how the earth could end by the distortions of ancient trees, by the accumulations of cultures, and by the aberration of algorithms. A handful of stories about an invasion of sanctified cockroaches, an uncannily skilled boy, a mystical story of ALS, a stereotypical young mass murderer, a hunchback a hermaphrodite and a mysterious Greek monastery, a walleyed degenerate and his omnivorous goats, and the transmigration of a matriarchal boar's spirit.

FORGED IN BATTLE... FROM THE DUST OF THE ARENA... A LEGEND WILL RISE The action-packed tale of a 17-year-old warrior princess and a handsome gladiator who dared take on the Roman Republic—and gave rise to the legend of Spartacus... For teens who love strong female protagonists in their fantasy and historical fiction, Blood and Sand is a stirring, yet poignant tale of two slaves who dared take on an empire by talented debut author C. V. Wyk. Roma Victrix. The Republic of Rome is on a relentless march to create an empire—an empire built on the backs of the conquered, brought back to Rome as slaves. Attia was once destined to rule as the queen and swordmaiden of Thrace, the greatest warrior kingdom the world had seen since Sparta. Now she is a slave, given to Xanthus, the Champion of Rome, as a sign of his master’s favor. Enslaved as a child, Xanthus is the preeminent gladiator of his generation. Against all odds, Attia and Xanthus form a tentative bond. A bond that will spark a rebellion. A rebellion that threatens to bring the Roman Republic to its end—and gives rise to the legend of Spartacus... The story continues in Fire and Ash, coming soon from Tor Teen.
