Time to Get Tough
Michael J. Coles, the cofounder of the Great American Cookie Company and the former CEO of Caribou Coffee, did not follow a conventional path into business. He does not have an Ivy League pedigree or an MBA from a top-ten business school. He grew up poor, starting work at the age of thirteen. He had many false starts and painful defeats, but Coles has a habit of defying expectations. His life and career have been about turning obstacles into opportunities, tragedies into triumphs, and poverty into philanthropy. In Time to Get Tough, Coles explains how he started a $100-million company with only $8,000, overcame a near-fatal motorcycle accident, ran for the U.S. Congress, and set three transcontinental cycling world records. His story also offers a firsthand perspective on the business, political, and philanthropic climate in the last quarter of the twentieth century and serves as an important case study for anyone interested in overcoming a seemingly insurmountable challenge. Readers will also discover practical leadership lessons and unconventional ways of approaching business.

The Kemetic Tarot
For nearly six centuries, tarot card designers have claimed that their cards have an esoteric link to ancient Egyptian magic, some even claiming their tarot decks are based on Egyptian magic. The Kemetic Tarot is directly based on the most powerful Egyptian magic discovered: The Book of Coming Forth by Day, a book of spells and ritual magic designed to allow a soul to invoke the gods and subdue evil adversaries as it travels from the mundane world to the spiritual world of the Duat (the afterlife), and finally on to eternal life in Aaru (the Egyptian Paradise). The book of The Kemetic Tarot explains how to read the Kemetic Tarot cards, with a thorough description of the gods, goddesses, and magic that form the foundation of this unique and powerful tarot deck.
The Madness of Grief
The #2 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER from the author of MURDER BEFORE EVENSONG 'Immensely moving and disarmingly witty' Nigella Lawson 'Such a moving, tough, funny, raw, honest read' Matt Haig 'Beautifully written, moving and gut-wrenching, but also at times very funny' Ian Rankin 'Captures brilliantly, beautifully, bravely the comedy as well as the tragedy of bereavement' The Times 'Will strike a chord with anyone who has grieved' Independent When the Reverend Richard Coles's partner died suddenly, shortly before Christmas in 2019, what came next took Richard by surprise. Despite his years of experience assisting his parishioners in examining life's moral questions, Richard now found he needed guidance himself. Much about grief was unexpected: the volume of 'sadmin' that must be undertaken, how much harder it is travelling solo for work, the pain of typing a text message to your partner - then remembering they are gone. This deeply personal account of life after grief will resonate, unforgettably, long after the final page has been turned.
