![]() ![]() And if the Junkman doesn't find her first. There's only one safe place, and it has Ranger's name all over it-if she can find it. With super bounty hunter Ranger acting more mysteriously than ever (and thetension with vice cop Joe Morelli getting hotter), she finds herself with a decision to make: how to protect herself and where to hide while on the hunt for a killer known as the Junkman. It would be just another day in the life of Stephanie Plum, except that she becomes the target of a gang-and of an even scarier, more dangerous force that comes to Trenton. A robbery leads to an explosion, which leads to the destruction of yet another car. But Stephanie Plum and her partner, Lula, are clearly in the wrong place at the wrong time. It begins as an innocent trip to the deli-mart, on a quest for nachos. She's Stephanie Plum, and she kicks butt for a living (well, she thinks it sounds good to put it that way.). ![]() Her mother's convinced she'll end up dead. She's a target for every psycho and miscreant this side of the Jersey Turnpike. ![]() She's accidentally destroyed a dozen cars. ![]() Janet Evanovich is the hottest author in America, and her Stephanie Plum novels have taken the nation by storm! ![]()

![]() The Order, governed by a high council of Regents, has been fighting an ancient war against demons and creatures from the Shadow realm. ![]() Jemisin's fantastical 'The World We Make' a love song to New York Cityīree has entered the Legendborn Order, a secret society descended from King Arthur and his knights with connections to his Round Table and the ability to wield magical powers. She wants to learn more about her ancestors and her lineage she wants to learn how to control her newly released powers and, most urgently, she wants to find her friend Nick Davis, who is still missing after his father kidnapped him after the battle in the previous book. It’s been one month since the events of “Legendborn,” and Bree is also restless. Tracy Deonn’s “Bloodmarked” (Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, 576 pp., ★★★ out of four) is a sequel to the 2020 young adult novel “Legendborn" and the second installment in her Legendborn Cycle series. ![]() Briana “Bree” Matthews feels trapped – somehow both powerful and powerless. ![]() ![]() See the inbred aristocracy bump each other off with such ineffable smugness that, come episode’s end, you’ll be baying for everyone’s blood. Watch their iconically, comically middle-class wives do lovely, restful things, like join a painting class or am dram society, only to uncover heinous murder right in the midst of it (every damn time-that Joyce Barnaby belongs on a watch list). Join Inspector(s) Barnaby in the idyllic British country town of Causton and the surrounding areas, where so many people are murdered on a weekly basis it’s amazing there’s any population left at all. There are 23 seasons of Midsomer Murders (with even more in production), so you’re never going to run out. ![]() ![]() This is hands down, 100% the best British murder show around. ![]() ![]() Their relationship is discussed often, but they don’t actually have a lot of time to be together (and make out like obsessed teenagers ♥). It had romance, action, politics and completely kept me engaged!Īs I said, there wasn’t a big focus on Emma and Galden’s relationship, which was a bit of a downer, since that’s what I really loved in Of Poseidon. It wasn’t quite as romantic and swoony as Of Poseidon, but it had a bigger focus on the syrena politics and mermaid mythology.Īlthough Of Triton was a fairly short book (only 246 pages!) I felt like a lot happened and it was a really well done, fully contained story. Of Triton was the perfect book to save me from a reading slump. ![]() This is my first step towards overcoming Second Book Avoidance Syndrom! Woohoo! I am PSYCHED! Which leaves Emma with a decision to make: Should she comply with Galen’s request to keep herself safe and just hope for the best? Or should she risk it all and reveal herself-and her Gift-to save a people she’s never known? Syrena law states that all Half- Breeds should be put to death.Īs if that’s not bad enough, her mother’s reappearance among the Syrena turns the two kingdoms-Poseidon and Triton-against one another. ![]() In this sequel to OF POSEIDON, Emma has just learned that her mother is a long-lost Poseidon princess, and now struggles with an identity crisis: As a Half-Breed, she’s a freak in the human world and an abomination in the Syrena realm below. ![]() Published by: Feiwel & Friends on May 28, 2013 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Hustvedt’s characters interrogate the idea of a core identity – what this means in the light of the roles (or masks) we assume in the world such as wife or artist or ‘good’ daughter. When we look back at ourselves, as Harriet does, are we really doing so in a clear-eyed and honest way? Harriet thinks: “I wonder if I am explaining things away now, remembering my life all wrong”, and “self-examination results in confabulation”. We are, Hustvedt suggests, all unreliable narrators of our own lives. The question, ‘Who am I?’ haunts this book about identity and unknowing. ![]() Similarly, the elderly-but-robust Harriet is surprised by the old woman who stars back at her from the mirror. ![]() ![]() The year is 1948, the town is Los Angeles.Įasy Rawlins, a black war veteran, has just been fired from his job at a defense factory plant. ![]() Named one of the “best 100 mystery novels of all time” by the Mystery Writers of America, this special thirtieth anniversary edition features an all new introduction from the author. ![]() The first novel by “master of mystery” ( The New York Times) Walter Mosley, featuring Easy Rawlins, the most iconic African American detective in all of fiction. ![]() Bestselling author Walter Mosley with his crime-fiction oeuvre and the big-screen adaptation of his first published book, which premiered at the 1995 Toronto International Film Festival and stars Denzel Washington as hard-boiled detective Ezekiel “Easy” Rawlins. ![]() ![]() ![]() Unless otherwise indicated, all music is available for purchase through online retailers such as and iTunes.

Desikachar has based his method on Krishnamacharya's fundamental concept of viniyoga, which maintains that practices must be continually adapted to the individual's changing needs to achieve the maximum therapeutic value. ![]() Desikachar lived and studied with his father all his life and now teaches the full spectrum of Krishnamacharya's yoga. Iyengar, Pattabhi Jois, and Indra Devi, who all studied with Krishnamacharya. Elements of Krishnamacharya's teaching have become well known around the world through the work of B. Sri Tirumalai Krishnamacharya, who lived to be over 100 years old, was one of the greatest yogis of the modern era. This new edition adds thirty-two poems by Krishnamacharya that capture the essence of his teachings. A contemporary classic by a world-renowned teacher. The first yoga text to outline a step-by-step sequence for developing a complete practice according to viniyoga-yoga adapted to the needs of the individual. ![]() ![]() ![]() Howard stories which weren’t of novel-length, as they were written for the pulp fiction magazines of the time, the 1930’s. That is, they are mostly the original Robert E. The first 12 Sphere books, are shown here in chronological order. There are some that claim to be ‘new’ copies out there, and those are quite expensive, so as this is more an excercise in ‘can I…?’ I’m perfectly happy to have something someone else has read – and hopefully enjoyed – before me. I take the quality of the book as it comes and have *touches wood* been lucky so far. They clearly aren’t, as yet, so sought-after either, which also keeps prices down. Cheaper than a bus into Aarhus, as I often point out. The books I’m re-collecting, are second-hand/used books, so aren’t – in the great scheme of things – all that expensive. As I’ve started, I figure I might as well keep on until the bitter end. ![]() As you will see, later on in the list, it would seem that Sphere stopped publishing the novels in the UK (after about book 20), and the ones thereafter are coming from the USA, published, I think, by Tor Books. ![]() I have a list, but no real way of knowing if that list is definitive. I’m not really sure how many there are in total. So recently, I wondered if it was possible to re-collect the Sphere Books versions, with the white backgrounds, I remember having. I read most of the Conan books below, as a youngster, though in various moves around Britain and then here to Denmark, I lost or had given away, my collection. Howard and especially Conan the Barbarian. ![]() ![]() ![]() But Guts won't take his fate lying down he'll cut a crimson swath of carnage through the ranks of the damned - and anyone else foolish enough to oppose him Accompanied by Puck the Elf, more an annoyance than a companion, Guts relentlessly follows a dark, bloodstained path that leads only to death.or vengeance. ![]() Bearer of a gigantic sword, an iron hand, and the scars of countless battles and tortures, his flesh is also indelibly marked with The Brand, an unholy symbol that draws the forces of darkness to him and dooms him as their sacrifice. Kentarou Miura was born in Chiba City, Japan, in 1966. His name is Guts, the Black Swordsman, a feared warrior spoken of only in whispers.
