'Impeccably researched and superbly written' Observer 'Holland has
something new to say.... Filled with insight and detail' Neil
Oliver 'James Holland is the best of the new generation of WW2
historians' Sebastian Faulks _____________________ With the
invasion of France the following year taking shape, and hot on the
heels of victory in Sicily, the Allies crossed into Southern Italy
in September 1943. They expected to drive the Axis forces north and
be in Rome by Christmas. And although Italy surrendered, the German
forces resisted fiercely and the swift hoped-for victory descended
into one of the most brutal battles of the war. Even though
shipping and materiel were already being safeguarded for the D-Day
landings, there were still huge expectations on the progress of the
invading armies, but those shortages were to slow the advance with
tragic consequences. As the weather closed in, the critical months
leading up to Monte Cassino would inflict a heavy price for every
bloody, hard fought mile the Allied troops covered. Chronicling
those dark, dramatic months in unflinching and insightful detail,
The Savage Storm is unlike any campaign history yet written. James
Holland has always recounted the Second World War at ground level,
but this version telling brings the story vividly to life like
never before. Weaving together a wealth of letters, diaries, and
other incredible documents, Holland traces the battles as they were
fought - across plains, over mountains, through shattered villages
and cities, in intense heat and, towards the end, frigid cold and
relentless rain - putting readers at the heart of the action to
create an entirely fresh and revealing telling of this most pivotal
phase of the war.
Die Klein Kaptein is ’n kereltjie wat met ’n skoorsteenpyp, ’n
sinkbad, ’n stoelpoot en ’n fietsketting sy skip die “Nooitlek”
weer seevaardig maak. Wanneer die skroef, gemaak van gesmelte
bronsmunte, ook klaar is, skep ’n groot brander die skip van die
hoe duin af waar dit gestrand het. Die avontuurlike tog van die
“Nooitlek” met die Klein Kaptein en sy kamerade Dik Druif, Marinka
en Bang Tonie kan nou begin. Hulle vaar oor die oseane, kom by
vreemde lande aan en trotseer talle gevare. Al drie dele van die
Klein Kaptein se wereldreis is hier in een band gebundel, met
illustrasies in volkleur deur Carl Hollander.
A must-read for fans of Circe and The Bear and the Nightingale
Britain, 60AD. Hoping to save her lover, land and her people from
the Romans, Herla makes a desperate pact with the king of the
Otherworld. But years pass unheeded in his realm, and she escapes
to find everyone she loved long dead. Cursed to wield his blade,
she becomes Lord of the Hunt. And for centuries, she rides, reaping
wanderers’ souls. Until the night she meets a woman on a bloody
battlefield – a Saxon queen with ice-blue eyes. Queen Æthelburg
of Wessex is a proven fighter. But when she leads her forces to
disaster in battle, her husband’s court turns against her. Yet
King Ine needs Æthel more than ever: the dead kings of Wessex are
waking, and his own brother seeks to usurp him. Ine’s only hope
is to master the magic that’s lain dormant in his bloodline since
ancient days. When their paths cross, Herla knows it’s no
coincidence. Something dark and dangerous is at work in the Wessex
court. The Otherworld seeks to rise, to bring the people of Britain
under its dominion. As she and Æthel grow closer, Herla must find
her humanity – and a way to break the curse – before it’s too
late. Song of the Huntress recasts the folklore behind the Wild
Hunt into a dark, feminist fantasy set amidst the legends and
beauty of ancient Cornwall. ‘Lucy Holland is a brilliantly
assured storyteller’ – Molly Flatt
Children's animated sequel directed by John Kafka. After returning
from their honeymoon, Cinderella (voice of Jennifer Hale) and
Prince Charming (Christopher D. Barnes) attempt to settle into the
routine of normal palace life. However, when she is cast in the
role of Royal Hostess, Cinderella finds the prospect so daunting
that she begins to think the happily-ever-afters might have been
spoken too soon. But with the Fairy Godmother (Russi Taylor) and
her friends on hand to help out, Cinderella soon sees she can
overcome any challenge put in front of her.

Double bill of children's features. 'Marmaduke' (2010) is a part
live action, part CGI-animated family comedy based on the
long-running comic strip. When the Winslow family moves from Kansas
to Orange County, California with their goofy, accident-prone Great
Dane, Marmaduke (voiced by Owen Wilson), the big dog experiences
all kinds of trouble fitting in with his new canine neighbours. The
film also features the voice talents of Emma Stone, William H.
Macy, Sam Elliott, Steve Coogan and Kiefer Sutherland. 'Firehouse
Dog' (2007) follows Rex, Hollywood's top-grossing canine known for
his extreme athletic abilities and diva-like demeanour. His perks
package, rivalling that of any A-list celebrity, includes Kobe
beef, a poodle harem and a diamond collar. Unfortunately an
accident that occurs while Rex is shooting a commercial leads his
handlers to presume he's dead. But Rex is merely lost. Alone,
filthy and unrecognisable in an unfamiliar city, how will Rex deal
with a scenario much more common to dogs than his previous pampered
existence?

"A new kind of vampire story, and the result is a surprising and
spellbinding tale." --Laura Moriarty, New York Times bestselling
author of The Chaperone "Great for fans of Interview with a Vampire
and The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue." --Library Journal
Suspenseful and enchanting, this breathtaking debut spans history,
weaving a story of love, family, history, and myth as seen through
the eyes of one immortal woman. Collette LeSange has been hiding a
dark truth: She is immortal. In 1834, Collette's grandfather
granted her the gift of eternal life and since then, she has
endured centuries of turmoil and heartache. Now, almost 150 years
later, Collette is a lonely artist running an elite fine art school
for children in upstate New York. But her life is suddenly upended
by the arrival of a gifted child from a troubled home, the return
of a stalking presence from her past, and her own mysteriously
growing hunger for blood. Combining brilliant prose with
breathtaking suspense, Jacqueline Holland's The God of Endings
serves as a larger exploration of the human condition in all its
complexity, asking us the most fundamental question: is life in
this world a gift or a curse?
