Benni had everything that a coach loves in a player.’ – José Mourinho
Benni McCarthy is South Africa’s most successful footballer – he’s the
all-time top scorer for Bafana Bafana, the country’s only
Champions League winner, and he is now forging a successful
career as a coach.
Benni has gone from growing up in the ganglands of the Cape Flats to
playing at some of the biggest arenas in sport, moving from South
Africa as a teenager to become a much- prized player at clubs in the
Netherlands, Spain and England. He was the top scorer at the
Africa Cup of Nations finals, he also found the back of the net at the
World Cup, and he helped FC Porto and their fabled coach José
Mourinho to win the top club prize in world football.
Since hanging up his boots, Benni has embarked on a coaching career
that has seen him win silverware in South Africa and then go on
to work on the staff at Manchester United. He is now building a
national team for Kenya as they ready themselves to host the 2027 Cup
of Nations tournament.
Overcoming formidable obstacles has been the hallmark of Benni’s
career, be it defying neighbourhood gang bosses, a series of
vindictive coaches or selfserving South African football
administrators. His defiant approach to officialdom often landed him in
hot water but he has always stayed true to his principles,
resulting in a love-hate relationship with Bafana Bafana that has
never been properly explained … until now
For her entire adult life, Oprah
Winfrey has struggled with her weight. She never thought in her
lifetime, medicines would provide hope, health, and healing for people
like her. But as her conversations with Dr. Ania Jastreboff from the
Yale School of Medicine reveal, we’ve learned that having obesity is
not a choice. It’s not a question of willpower.
Obesity is a disease.
It’s a question of biology, created by our bodies' need to survive and
the environment we created and now live in.
And it’s treatable.
The new medications can lower our body fat set point (our brain’s
'Enough Point'), so that we lose weight without battling biology with
willpower. Dr. Jastreboff describes strategies to optimise health and
manage side effects all with the reassuring perspective of decades of
experience treating patients with obesity and leading studies with
these medications.
Many of her patients say the 'food noise' that plagued them for years
has evaporated. They describe a new freedom from intrusive, persistent
and disruptive thoughts about food. With treatment they begin a journey
of healing with self-compassion, devoid of the shame and blame they’ve
endured from society for decades.
Oprah says she’s learned so much from Dr. Jastreboff about how, when it
comes to weight, our bodies work with us ― and also against us. How
each of our struggles are different and each of our choices in living
with obesity may also be different.
Dr. Jastreboff’s groundbreaking research offers a new way forward, not
only for obesity treatment, but also for overall health, with
significant implications for the prevention and reversal of hundreds of
related diseases. As she demonstrates in this book, when science meets
empathy, real healing becomes possible.
Yes, there is a path to healing and leading the life you have always
wanted, when your brain is reassured that you have 'enough.'

Food is so much more than just fuel. It’s pleasure. It’s comfort. It’s
connection. It’s culture and tradition. It’s celebration. In the same
way, Paradise is so much more than just a cookbook. It’s indulgent.
It’s decadent. It’s vibrant. It’s unapologetically rich. It’s tropical.
It’s African but also global. It’s all about good food – the kind that
makes you forget everything else for a moment.
Much of today’s messaging around food instils us with feelings of guilt
or shame simply for enjoying what we eat. With Paradise,
Kenneth encourages us to let our hair down, to embrace moments of
indulgence, to occasionally treat ourselves and our loved ones. Go
ahead, eat that cake. Celebrate friendships with pizza and red wine.
Say yes to extra cheese and that second helping.
The recipes in Paradise are as varied as they are easy and
delicious. Experiencing and appreciating the flavours and traditions of
a variety of cultures, both regionally and internationally, has given
Kenneth a unique outlook on food, allowing him to fuse various culinary
traditions to create something truly distinctive. From traditional
southern African dishes such as seswaa, mokwetjepe, magwinya and Cape
Malay curry to global favourites such as Jamaican oxtail, Korean fried
chicken, Vietnamese pho and Mississippi mud pie, Paradise takes
classics you know and love, and elevates them to their full potential –
using quality ingredients, better techniques and a deep respect for
flavour.
So be inspired. Be empowered. Explore the art of cooking and discover
the pleasure it can bring to your life as you enter Paradise…
Are you sleepwalking through life, overwhelmed by an unending stream of

In 1916 keer Caleb Kelly, ’n jong WOI-veteraan, getraumatiseerd en
geskend terug na die Oos-Kaap. Die afgryse wat hy in Frankryk beleef
het, is ingebrand in sy wese.
Kort ná sy terugkeer vernietig olifante die windpomp op sy plaas.
Caleb is woedend en gereed om wraak te neem. Maar dan gebeur iets
onverwags en sy toorn maak plek vir ’n vriendskap met ’n trop wat
bedags tussen die ruigtes naby die plaas skuil.
Intussen word grootskaalse landbou-ontwikkeling in die
Sondagsriviervallei deur die regering van stapel gestuur. Dewald
Troskie word aangestel om die olifante in die omgewing uit te dun.
Deur historiese feite met fiksie te verweef neem Bakkes lesers op ’n
reis vanaf 1919 tot die stigting van die Addo-olifantpark in 1931.
Soetdoring in die ruigtes is meer as ’n historiese roman – dit is ’n
meditasie oor trauma en genesing, oor die mensdom se vermoë tot
beide vernietiging en verlossing. Die onbreekbare band tussen Caleb en
sy trop olifante sal lesers ontroer, uitdaag en inspireer.

The moment you see a dragon is usually your last…
Since the dragons emerged–along with the scourge that ravaged our lands
and people–there’s only one human city that remains standing: Vinguard.
But the hellfire from above is nothing compared to the threat from
within. For there is no worse fate than being dragon cursed. Slowly and
excruciatingly, you’ll be transformed into a mindless beast who
destroys everything–and everyone–you love.
Any of us could be tainted. Any of us could be lying. Any of us could
be caught and killed by the authorities.
And I’m terrified that I might be next.
There’s only one other person who might suspect my secret. He’s like my
shadow, following me wherever I go. Part protector, part tormentor,
fully annoying. Sometimes I think I am just one of the million
unfathomable secrets he keeps hidden.
Because Lucan definitely knows something.
And if I’m dragon cursed, death might be the only mercy I get.

Long ago, Arthur Poole built a grand house overlooking the turbulent

lives in that house-a manor that has been cursed for generations.
Within its walls, she has witnessed the deaths of seven brides and the
thefts of seven wedding rings.
Determined to bring light to this haunted place-to fill it with people,
with life and hope, once again - Sonya decides it is time to break the
curse and banish a malevolent spirit once and for all.
But the enemy in the black dress continues to hover, to come at her in
frightening forms. They may be illusions-but illusions can be powerful
enough to wound, even kill. This dark-hearted witch wants to be
mistress of Poole Manor, at any cost. And Sonya will need to fight a
battle across two realms to finally take possession of the house on the
clifftop-and of her own future...
My name is Elinor Gilbert. And I am the Invisible Woman.
Elinor Gilbert was once a young woman with a thriving career at the FBI.
Now, decades past solving crimes with the bureau, she is personally and
professionally forgettable.
Which is exactly what her former FBI boss needs. He disguises Elinor as
a middle-aged nanny, and casts her as an agent on the inside of his
investigation into a New York art dealer suspected of ties to organised
crime.
But as Elinor pushes toward the truth, her superpower - anonymity -
risks doubling as a fatal flaw.
The more the invisible woman integrates into her 'host' family, the
more dangerously memorable she becomes.

Ancient Rome, AD 37
A scribe in a noble household, all Cormac has ever known is a life of
slavery. When his master suddenly relieves him of his post, along with
a hundred other men and women, Cormac is furnished with documents to
free him from bondage but given no means to survive.
Somewhere between slave and citizen, the freedom to live is the freedom
to starve too. All that was once orderly, structured and routine is now
chaos, and Cormac must learn life anew.
His writing skills have afforded him flickers of opportunity in a world
far wealthier than his, but will he resist the pull of the city's
underbelly? Can he untangle himself from its crimes?
Conn Iggulden's next novel will take readers on an epic journey to
discover what one man - fighting against all the odds - will make of
his freedom.
Introducing Detective Stilwell: a cop relentlessly following his
mission in the seemingly idyllic setting of Catalina Island.
Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Detective Stilwell has been “exiled” to a
low-key post policing rustic Catalina Island, after department politics
drove him off a homicide desk on the mainland. But while following up
the usual drunk-and-disorderlies and petty thefts that come with his
new territory, Detective Stilwell gets a report of a body found weighed
down at the bottom of the harbor—a Jane Doe identifiable at first only
by a streak of purple dye in her hair. At the same time, a report of
poaching on a protected reserve turns into a case fraught with violence
and danger as Stilwell digs into the shady past of an island bigwig.
Crossing all lines of protocol and jurisdiction, Stilwell doggedly
works both cases. Though hampered by an old beef with an ex-colleague
determined to thwart him at every turn, he is convinced he is the only
one who can bring justice to the woman known as “Nightshade.” Soon, his
investigation uncovers closely guarded secrets and a dark heart to the
serene island that was meant to be his escape from the evils of the big
city.

In this twisty thriller from New York Times bestselling author Colleen
Hoover, a frustrated author looks for her muse in a remote hideaway,
but what she finds defies all expectations…and reality.
Her words used to set the page on fire. But a viral backlash over her
latest film adaptation forced Petra Rose to take a hiatus, resulting in
missed deadlines and an overdue mortgage. Branded a fraud and
fame-hungry opportunist, she learned the hard way what happens when the
internet turns on you. And she’s been uninspired to write ever since.
Now, with her next suspense novel outlined and savings nearly gone, she
retreats to a secluded lakeside cabin, hoping to find inspiration. It’s
Petra’s last-ditch attempt to save her career―and herself.
Then he shows up.
Detective Nathaniel Saint arrives with disturbing news, his presence
igniting a creativity in her she thought long since burned out. Petra’s
words return in a rush, and her fictional cop character begins to
mirror the very real cop who’s becoming her muse.
Their “research” sessions blur the lines between fantasy and reality.
Each glance, every touch pulls Petra deeper into a world she thought
she’d never lose herself in again. She’s never felt more alive. But
inspiration this powerful comes at a cost.
When Saint starts taking his role in her career a little too seriously,
Petra’s forced to confront the chaos she created. But doing so could
cost her more than the reputation she’s been trying to salvage. The
reputation the world wrote for her―the reputation only she can reclaim.
An unexpected diagnosis.
A breakup.
A redundancy.

reactions to all kinds of change, from denial and guilt to rumination
and stagnation, we’re offered tools and strategies to unlock our full
potential in the face of upheaval.

feeling stuck, hopeless or broken. Approached in the right way, it can
lead us to uncover new abilities, perspectives and values, transforming
us in extraordinary ways.

or bracing for a future one, discover who you can become on the other
side of change.
