THE JURA EDITION with new introduction by Alex Massie
‘For him Jura was home’ – Richard Blair on his father George Orwell
‘The book of the twentieth century . . . haunts us with an ever-darker relevance’ – Ben Pimlott, Independent
‘The greatest British novel to have been written since the war’ – Time Out

The year is 1984 and war and revolution have left the world unrecognisable. Great Britain, now known as Airstrip One, is ruled by the Party, led by Big Brother. Mass surveillance is everything and The Thought Police are employed to ensure that no individual thinking is allowed. Winston Smith works at The Ministry of Truth, carefully rewriting history, but he dreams of freedom and of rebellion.
It is here that he meets and falls in love with Julia. They start a secret, forbidden affair – but nothing can be kept secret, and they are forced to face consequences more terrifying than either of them could have ever imagined.
In this new edition of a modern classic, Alex Massie’s introduction highlights the importance that Jura had on the writing of one of the twentieth century’s most important works of fiction.

A Dance with the Fae Prince
Cinderella meets THE CRUEL PRINCE in this standalone fantasy romance about a human girl and her marriage to the prince of the fae.
She knew her hand in marriage would be sold. She had no idea a fae prince was the buyer.
Katria swore she’d never fall in love. She’s seen what ‘love’ means through the cruelty of her family. So when she’s married off to the mysterious Lord Fenwood for a handsome price, all Katria wants is a better life than the one she’s leaving. Feelings are off the table.
But her new husband makes not falling in love difficult.
As their attraction begins to grow, so too do the oddities within her new life: strange rules, screams in the night, and attacks by fae that Katria never thought were real. When she witnesses a ritual not meant for human eyes, Katria finds herself spirited away to the land of Midscape.
Surviving the fae wilds as a human is hard enough. Katria must survive as a human who accidently pilfered the magic of ancient kings – magic a bloodthirsty king is ready to kill her for in order to keep his stolen throne – and her new husband is the rightful heir in hiding.
The power to save the fae is in her hands. But who will save her from a love she vowed never to feel?
A Dance with the Fae Prince is a *standalone novel* inspired by the tales of Psyche and Eros, as well as Cinderella, with a happily ever after ending. It’s perfect for romantic fantasy readers who enjoyed of A Court of Silver Flames and An Enchantment of Ravens. A Dance with the Fae Prince features a slow-burn romance, swoon-worthy couple, and steaminess that ranges from simmering to sizzling.

A Touch of Darkness: A Dark and Enthralling Reimagining of the Hades and Persephone Myth (Hades x Persephone Saga, 1)
From bestselling author Scarlett St. Clair comes a dark and enthralling reimagining of the Hades and Persephone Greek myth.
“Let me worship you,” he said.
She remembered the words she had whispered to him in the back of the limo after La Rose. “You will worship me, and I won’t even have to order you.” His request felt sinful and devious, and she reveled in it.
She answered, “Yes.”
Persephone is the Goddess of Spring in title only. Since she was a little girl, flowers have only shriveled at her touch. After moving to New Athens, she hoped to lead an unassuming life disguised as a mortal journalist. All of that changes when she sits down in a forbidden nightclub to play a hand of cards with a hypnotic and mysterious stranger.
Hades, God of the Dead, has built a gambling empire in the mortal world and his favorite bets are rumored to be impossible. But nothing has ever intrigued him as much as the goddess offering him a bargain he can’t resist.
After her encounter with Hades, Persephone finds herself in a contract with the God of the Dead, and his terms are impossible: Persephone must create life in the Underworld or lose her freedom forever. The bet does more than expose Persephone’s failure as a goddess, however. As she struggles to sow the seeds of her freedom, love for the God of the Dead grows-a love that is both captivating and forbidden.

Between Two Fires
His extraordinary debut, Those Across the River, was hailed as “genre-bending Southern horror” (California Literary Review), “graceful [and] horrific” (Patricia Briggs). Now Christopher Buehlman invites readers into an even darker age—one of temptation and corruption, of war in heaven, and of hell on earth… And Lucifer said: “Let us rise against Him now in all our numbers, and pull the walls of heaven down…” The year is 1348. Thomas, a disgraced knight, has found a young girl alone in a dead Norman village. An orphan of the Black Death, and an almost unnerving picture of innocence, she tells Thomas that plague is only part of a larger cataclysm—that the fallen angels under Lucifer are rising in a second war on heaven, and that the world of men has fallen behind the lines of conflict. Is it delirium or is it faith? She believes she has seen the angels of God. She believes the righteous dead speak to her in dreams. And now she has convinced the faithless Thomas to shepherd her across a depraved landscape to Avignon. There, she tells Thomas, she will fulfill her mission: to confront the evil that has devastated the earth, and to restore to this betrayed, murderous knight the nobility and hope of salvation he long abandoned. As hell unleashes its wrath, and as the true nature of the girl is revealed, Thomas will find himself on a macabre battleground of angels and demons, saints, and the risen dead, and in the midst of a desperate struggle for nothing less than the soul of man.Read more

Celtic Weird: Tales of Wicked Folklore and Dark Mythology (British Library Hardback Classics)
Once I thought I glimpsed her high up in a bush, like dirty rags in a gale. Not that so far there has been any gale, or even any wind. The total silent stillness is one of the worst things. Yes, it is a battle with strong and unknown forces that I have on my hands.
From the shorelines, hills and towns of ancient lands, tales of twisted creatures, sins against nature and pagan revenants have been passed down from generation to generation. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, folklore from Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall, Brittany and the Isle of Man inspired a new strain of strange short stories, penned by writers of the weird and fantastic including masters of the form such as Arthur Machen, Edith Wharton and Robert Aickman.
In this volume, Johnny Mains dives into the archives to unearth a hoard of twenty-one enthralling tales imbued with elements of Celtic folklore, ranging from the 1820s to the 1980s and including three weird lost gems translated from Gaelic. Together they conjure uncanny visions of eternal forces, beings and traditions, resonating with the beguiling essence of this unique branch of strange fiction.

An intrepid professor must uncover faerie secrets in the delightful and heart-warming second instalment of the Sunday Times bestselling Emily Wilde series.
Emily Wilde is a genius scholar of faerie folklore, and has catalogued many secrets of the Hidden Folk in her encyclopaedia with her infuriatingly charming fellow scholar, Wendell Bambleby, by her side.
But Bambleby is more than just a brilliant and unbearably handsome scholar. He’s an exiled faerie king on the run from his murderous mother, in search of a door back to his realm.
By lucky happenstance, Emily’s new project, a map of the realms of faerie, will take them on an adventure to the picturesque Austrian Alps, where Emily believes they may find the door to Bambleby’s realm, and the key to freeing him from his family’s dark plans.
But with new friendships for the prickly Emily to navigate and dangerous Folk lurking in every forest and hollow, Emily must unravel the mysterious workings of faerie doors, and of her own heart.

Lost in Space Technical Handbook
The Lost in Space Technical Handbook is the culmination of decades of research by author/artist Ron Gross into the compelling hardware seen on the classic TV series Lost in Space. The brilliantly diverse hardware of the show is represented objectively, in a “studio production” type of format. Many original special effects “secrets” are now revealed. This new book, now a full 35+ years in the making, finally completes the three volume set devoted to Lost in Space and the other Irwin Allen TV properties as initially conceived by the author.There are a total of 50 technical blueprint views in this 160 page volume, some of which have been duplicated in a dramatic colored line-on-black scheme. The book covers the Jupiter 2, The Robot, The Chariot, the Space Pod, weaponry, and an assortment of accessory hardware. A final chapter also covers selected “alien” technology and related props. Finally, this officially licensed project has been augmented by Ron’s other supporting artwork, and selected contributions from well known artisans such as Bill Hedges, Tom Pfrogner (of “Collector’s Call” fame), and several others. It even includes a special chapter on custom scale modeling options based on the original studio props and plans.
The Lost in Space Technical Handbook is a companion volume to Ron Gross’s first two books on the Amazon platform, “Fantasy Worlds Beyond: The Irwin Allen Art of Ron Gross,” and “Lost in Space: The Initial Adventures.” Ron first became aware of Lost in Space at age eleven, when the first promo for the show was broadcast by CBS in the summer of 1965. Lost in Space continued to capture Ron’s imagination into adulthood, which resulted in various scratch-built modeling projects, and box cover art contributions to Irwin Allen-based model kits. Today Ron is officially licensed to create new graphic materials based on the Irwin Allen sci-fi television properties.
