The Golden Flares
Once you start running from your fears, you never stop. Rebellion. Fallon has lost everything. Her family is dead, she has no house, and no money. She is the country of Reval’s most-wanted rebel. No one knows exactly what she looks like, other than her best friend, Joey, who helps Fallon survive. She strives to protect the ones she loves and the poor, who cannot protect themselves. Betrayal. Asher has everything he could ask for. He has a brother, who is high in the military ranks, he has an incredible house, and a lot of money. The only thing he doesn’t have is his parents, who were captured in the Reval war with the Sectors. Survival. After Asher’s brother suddenly gets killed on the job, he believes Fallon is responsible and goes across the city to find her and bring her to justice. Change. Now, two very different worlds collide as Fallon and Asher meet. Unaware of their true identities, they work together to look for the people they desperately want to find. Targeted and hunted by the Reval government, Fallon and Joey are always on the run. Along the way, they encounter friends and foes as they realize there is more to this war than they ever imagined.
At Hawthorn Time
SHORTLISTED FOR THE COSTA NOVEL AWARD 2015 LONGLISTED FOR THE BAILEYS WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2016 Four-thirty on a May morning: the black fading to blue, dawn gathering somewhere below the treeline in the east. A long, straight road runs between sleeping fields to the little village of Lodeshill, and on it two cars lie wrecked and ravished, violence gathered about them in the silent air. One wheel, upturned, still spins. Howard and Kitty have recently moved to Lodeshill after a life spent in London; now, their marriage is wordlessly falling apart. Custom car enthusiast Jamie has lived in the village for all of his nineteen years and dreams of leaving it behind, while Jack, a vagrant farm-worker and mystic in flight from a bail hostel, arrives in the village on foot one spring morning, bringing change. All four of them are struggling to find a life in the modern countryside; all are trying to find ways to belong. Building to an extraordinary climax over the course of one spring month, At Hawthorn Time is both a clear-eyed picture of rural Britain, and a heartbreaking exploration of love, land and loss.

Insects, plants and microclimate
Microclimate is the very local climate close to the ground or another surface. The microclimate around a plant is particularly complex and interesting, and an insect sitting on a leaf may be inhabiting a weather system completely different from the weather outside. An understanding of the microclimate around plants enables us to interpret the behaviour pattern of insects as they change through the day. The instruments needed for exploring microclimate need not be expensive - this book explains how many of them can be made at home or at school using inexpensive components. The colour illustrations provide a guide to the main groups of insects, and identification keys are listed for each. 9781784275334 & 9781784275341 are digital reprints of 0855462795 (1991).

Principles of Animal Locomotion
How can geckoes walk on the ceiling and basilisk lizards run over water? What are the aerodynamic effects that enable small insects to fly? What are the relative merits of squids' jet-propelled swimming and fishes' tail-powered swimming? Why do horses change gait as they increase speed? What determines our own vertical leap? Recent technical advances have greatly increased researchers' ability to answer these questions with certainty and in detail. This text provides an up-to-date overview of how animals run, walk, jump, crawl, swim, soar, hover, and fly. Excluding only the tiny creatures that use cilia, it covers all animals that power their movements with muscle--from roundworms to whales,...
