From the creators of Homeland and American Horror Story comes City
1, the chilling finale to the Revolution 19 trilogy. The time has
come to win the cities back from the bots--or die trying.After
finally reuniting at a rebel camp, siblings Nick, Kevin, and Cass
are willing to do anything to stay together--and free their parents
from bot rule. But the leader of the rebel camp has her own ideas.
Cruel and determined, General Clay won't let anything stand in the
way of her plan to destroy the robots and all the brainwashed
humans. This means their parents' lives are at stake, but Nick,
Kevin, and Cass can't desert the rebels when they're so close to
freedom. How far will they go to save the world they believe in?
Agnes knows she loves her home of Red Creek--its quiet, sunny
mornings, its dusty roads, and its God. There, she cares tirelessly
for her younger siblings and follows the town's strict laws. What
she doesn't know is that Red Creek is a cult, controlled by a
madman who calls himself a prophet. Then Agnes meets Danny, an
Outsider boy, and begins to question what is and isn't a sin. Her
younger brother, Ezekiel, will die without the insulin she barters
for once a month, even though medicine is considered outlawed. Is
she a sinner for saving him? Is her sister, Beth, a sinner for
dreaming of the world beyond Red Creek? As the Prophet grows more
dangerous, Agnes realizes she must escape with Ezekiel and leave
everyone else, including Beth, behind. But it isn't safe Outside,
either: A viral pandemic is burning through the population at a
terrifying rate. As Agnes ventures forth, a mysterious connection
grows between her and the Virus, allowing her to heal the infected.
But in a world where faith, miracles, and cruelty have long been
indistinguishable, will Agnes be able to choose between saving her
family and saving the world?
Where is the Doctor? The time travelling Time Lord could be anywhere in time and space in these incredibly detailed intergalactic images. Search through the Weeping Angels, dig through the Daleks and trawl through the Toymaker’s toys to find the Doctor and the TARDIS!

Hydrox. Although thrilled at the invitation, Hugo is still

strange creature is on a path of destruction ... Can the unlikely
trio step in before the crisis gets out of control? Dive into a
strange new world in this truly imaginative companion to The
Starlight Watchmaker.
Jake and his friends are a wildcard entry in the most famous race
in the solar system - the Rocket Battles. Beating champion racers
is not going to be easy...
