George R.R. Martin's epic fantasy masterwork A Song of Ice and Fire
is brought to life in the pages of this full-colour graphic novel.
This is the second part of a four-volume adaptation of the second
book in the series, A Clash of Kings. As chaos grips Westeros, a
flaming red comet continues to burn a crimson path across the sky.
Some see this fiery herald as a sign of their impending victory.
Others see it as a mark of the blood and terror that will soon
engulf this divided kingdom. But one thing is certain: None of the
six contenders who seek either the Iron Throne, or the lands their
ancestors once held as kings, are willing to back down. And as
factions scatter or come together, there are many witnesses to the
unrest that is to come. Arya Stark finds herself in the heart of
enemy territory at Harrenhal, while her mother is trapped between
two brothers battling each other for their dead brother's throne.
In the heart of King's Landing, Tyrion is busy ferreting out
traitors as the Hand of the King, while Jon is beginning to
comprehend the lawlessness of life beyond the Wall. New friends
arrive in Winterfell for Bran, a forgotten son finds life in the
Iron Islands quite different than he remembered, and the Mother of
Dragons at last arrives in the fabled city of Qarth. But even as
these would-be kings draw their lines of battle, it is the people
of Westeros who will most suffer for their ambitions. For when
kings clash, it is the commoners who bear the greatest cost.

*A scorchingly hot modern retelling of Eurydice and Orpheus and Charon.*
Eurydice Dimitriou has always been the innocent sister, but she's finally ready to step out of the long shadow cast by her powerful family…and the ex who shattered her heart. Perhaps rough hands on soft skin are exactly what she needs to forget her heartbreak once and for all?
Charon Ariti has been Hades's right-hand man for years. He's given everything to the lower city, but now he's ready to take something for himself. He's only too happy to give Eurydice a special kind of education…but is her heart really free enough to be claimed?
Orpheus Makos will do whatever it takes to make things right. Once the golden boy of the upper city, he's now a shadow of his former self. He'll do anything to get Eurydice back…even if it means she's not coming into his arms alone. Three hearts. Three futures. Countless ways to get it wrong.
But with enemies slipping through Olympus's faltering barrier to lay siege on the lower city, a trio of broken hearts will be the least of these would-be lovers' worries…

Rings, featuring an exclusive cover designed to complement the new
'History of Middle-earth' series. This edition, styled to
complement the new 'History of Middle-earth' series, tells the
story of Frodo and the Companions of the Ring, who have been beset
by danger during their quest to prevent the Ruling Ring from
falling into the hands of the Dark Lord by destroying it in the
Cracks of Doom. They have lost the wizard, Gandalf, in the battle
with an evil spirit in the Mines of Moria; and at the Falls of
Rauros, Boromir, seduced by the power of the Ring, tried to seize
it by force. While Frodo and Sam made their escape the rest of the
company were attacked by Orcs. Now they continue their journey
alone down the great River Anduin -- alone, that is, save for the
mysterious creeping figure that follows wherever they go.

Sunday Times bestselling series. By way of a staggering deception,
Karou has taken control of the chimaera rebellion and is intent on
steering its course away from dead-end vengeance. The future rests

seraph army trespasses into the human world, the unthinkable
becomes essential, and Karou and Akiva must ally their enemy armies

their people. And, perhaps, for themselves. Toward a new way of
living, and maybe even love. But there are bigger threats than Jael
in the offing. A vicious queen is hunting Akiva, and, in the skies
of Eretz ... something is happening. Massive stains are spreading
like bruises from horizon to horizon; the great winged stormhunters
are gathering as if summoned, ceaselessly circling, and a deep
sense of wrong pervades the world. What power can bruise the sky

From the bestselling author of Fight Club comes a hilarious horror satire “equal parts saccharine caricature and startling raunch” (Kirkus Reviews) about a family of professional killers responsible for the most atrocious events in history and the young brothers that are destined to take over.
Meet Otto and Cecil. Two brothers who grew up privileged in the Welsh countryside. They enjoyed watching nature shows, playing with their pet pony, impersonating their Grandfather…and killing the help. Murder is the family business after all. Downton Abbey, this is not.
However, it’s not so easy to continue the family legacy with the constant stream of threats and distractions seemingly leaping from the hedgerow. First, there is the matter of the veritable cavalcade of escaped convicts that keep showing up at their door. Not to mention the debaucherous new tutor who has a penchant for speaking Greek and dismembering sex dolls. Then there’s Mummy’s burgeoning opioid addiction. And who knows where Daddy is. He just vanished one day after he and Mummy took a walk in the so-called “Ghost Forest.”
With Grandfather putting pressure on Otto to step up, it becomes clear that this will all end in only two ways: a nuclear apocalypse or just another day among the creeping thistle and tree peonies. And in a novel written by Chuck Palahniuk, either are equally possible.
Things are going wrong in Faerieland. Spells aren't working, and
grey cloud covers the sky. Deciding to take matters into her own
hands, Faerie Baby persuades Titania and Oberon to swap her.
However, she has underestimated the Fat Cat who lives in the
kitchen. Blamed for the havoc Faerie Baby is wreaking, Fat Cat sets
off on a journey into Faerieland to rescue newborn baby. A journey
that is to have unforseen consequences not only for them, but for
the fate of all the worlds. Faerie Baby, Moon Magic and The Stone
Dragon are now available in a single volume for the first time.
