The Polaris Whisper
A new vision flashed into Niclaus mind. He saw an army of bloodthirsty Norsemen hunting down a man. Reaching the cliff top, the man jumped. The chase was on. Niclaus has just one aim in life to win the Trial of Endurance to become the next leader of his village. The Trial is not without risks, and many have perished trying to complete it. But little does he realise that Cado, leader and oracle of Newgrange, has very different plans for him; plans that involve taking on the might of Hakon the Black, the most feared Norse lord, and travelling far from everything he knows to defend the White Cross Followers. Hakon's savagery knows no bounds; battle lines are forming; power beyond imagining is at stake and at the heart of it all is Niclaus. Will he have the strength to fulfil his destiny?

The Transatlantic Collapse of Urban Renewal
The Transatlantic Collapse of Urban Renewal examines how postwar thinkers from both sides of the Atlantic considered urban landscapes radically changed by the political and physical realities of sprawl, urban decay, and urban renewal.

In the postwar decades, the principles of modernist planning came to be challenged—in the grassroots revolts against the building of freeways through urban neighborhoods, for instance, or by academic critiques of slum clearance policy agenda...
A Wealth of Pigeons
"I've always looked upon cartooning as comedy's last frontier. I have done stand-up, sketches, movies, monologues, awards show introductions, sound bites, blurbs, talk show appearances, and tweets, but the idea of a one-panel image with or without a caption mystified me. I felt like, yeah, sometimes I'm funny, but there are these other weird freaks who are actually funny. You can understand that I was deeply suspicious of these people who are actually funny." So writes the multitalented comedian Steve Martin in his introduction to A Wealth of Pigeons: A Cartoon Collection. In order to venture into this lauded territory of cartooning, he partnered with the heralded New Yorker cartoonist Harry Bliss. Steve shared caption and cartoon ideas, Harry provided impeccable artwork, and together they created this collection of humorous cartoons and comic strips, with amusing commentary about their collaboration throughout. The result: this gorgeous, funny, singular book, perfect to give as a gift or to buy for yourself"--
