The Wolf's Time
In the tranquil Swedish coastal town of Skutskär, the summer of 2004 turns into a nightmarish apocalyptic fever dream. Inspired by the atmospheric tension of Stranger Things, the visceral horror of the Alien trilogy and the relentless brutality of Koushun Takami's Battle Royale, The Wolf's Time is a raw, unforgiving, and macabre tale of friendship, love and brutal survival. As the sun sets and darkness creeps in, the once familiar surroundings of their hometown become a battleground.

Ysengrimus
The "Ysengrimus" is the first fully-fledged medieval beast-epic, and the poem in which Reynard the Fox makes his first appearance on the stage of world literature. It thus occupies a key position in the long and fertile tradition of medieval beast-literature, but it also claims attention as a masterpiece in its own right, the work of one of the most daring and original satirists of the Middle Ages. Despite its importance, the "Ysengrimus" has been comparatively neglected because of its linguistic difficulties. Jill Mann eases these difficulties by presenting an English translation alongside the Latin text, and accompanying it with a detailed commentary. A full- length introduction offers an original account of the poem which shows how literary structure and historical dimensions are fused into an original satiric vision of compelling power. This book will not only interest medieval Latin specialists, but will make this major text accessible to those working on the related vernacular traditions. Its analysis of the poem's allusions to contemporary persons and events will also be of considerable interest to historians of twelfth-century Flanders.

Valiant Dreamers
In the 17th and 18th centuries the great powers of the world were concentrating energy, wealth, and ingenuity on the expansion of their empires far beyond the historical examples of Rome, Greece and Egypt. The Empire of Russia, expanding her borders under Peter the Great and Catherine the Great, was pressing toward the development of a Russian North America in the reign of Tsar Alexander. His weapon, unlike the military conquests of Spain, Portugal, France and England, was trade and commerce like the Dutch. Along with the giants of the North, Pribylov, Bering, Golikov and Shelikhov, Count Nikolai Rezànov earned fame and fortune as an intrepid explorer of the 18th Century. This is his story, and the story of the valiant men and women who adopted his dream of an Empire stretching from St. Petersburg to San Francisco.
