Wall of Stone
It is AD121 and Legate Maxinius's Twentieth Legion is becoming demoralised by the covert tactics of the Picts, rebel warriors coming down from the north of Britannia to incite trouble between the invading army and the local Brigante people. Fearing an uprising and with growing frustration at Rome's lack of support, the legate ignores orders from Emperor Hadrian to consolidate his position without advancing and decides, at the peril of his career, that his legion must act by flushing out the rebels, shattering the peace of the area in the process. Wall of Stone follows the fate and fortune of two legionaries from the Twentieth Legion which intertwine with those of a local Brigante family. A fortuitous meeting with Emperor Hadrian who is secretly visiting Britannia, sends the legionaries on a mission south to save a specialist engineer, crucial to the diplomatic plans of Hadrian, from the threat of assassins. The success of the mission has huge ramifications for the stability of Britannia and the quest for peace has never been more critical.

Economics
Economics 4th edition is a concise introduction to the core principles of economics, aimed at students taking their first, and probably only, one semester course in Economics. These students may be taking a business related degree, or may be from other degree schemes in the university taking a service course in Introductory Economics. There is a balanced split between the micro and macro economics section and the use of case studies and numerous examples makes this a lively little book for the reader. The real difference that this book offers the student is the amount and variety of questioning material that will really test their understanding.
