A Conspiracy of Truths
A wrongfully imprisoned storyteller spins stories from his jail cell that just might have the power to save him—and take down a corrupt government. Arrested on accusations of witchcraft and treason, Chant finds himself trapped in a cold, filthy jail cell in a foreign land. With only his advocate, the unhelpful and uninterested Consanza, he quickly finds himself cast as a bargaining chip in a brewing battle between the five rulers of this small, backwards, and petty nation.

The Fate of the Tearling
"Kau berusaha melakukan hal yang benar, Lady. Bukan salahmu bila semua berjalan keliru." Pasukan Mort telah mundur tanpa melakukan pembantaian dan penjarahan, tapi bukan berarti Tearling terbebas dari ancaman. Tanpa keberadaan Ratu Kelsea, pihak Gereja Arvath semakin berani dan semena-mena, hingga mengancam untuk mengambil alih pemerintahan. Sementara itu, iblis gelap yang selama ini terpenjara di Pegunungan Fairwitch di utara, telah bebas dan mulai meneror rakyat. Di dalam penjara, meskipun tidak lagi memegang kedua safir Tearling, Kelsea masih mendapat visi-visi dari masa lalu. Dengan putus asa dia berusaha belajar dari kesalahan di masa lalu, untuk memperbaiki masa depan. Apakah Tearling masih dapat diselamatkan dari kehancuran?

Emma Watson, aktris yang terkenal dengan perannya sebagai Hermione di film Harry Potter, telah setuju untuk menjadi produser dan pemeran utama film ini.

Cooking with Fernet Branca
“A very funny sendup of Italian-cooking-holiday-romance novels” (Publishers Weekly). Gerald Samper, an effete English snob, has his own private hilltop in Tuscany where he whiles away his time working as a ghostwriter for celebrities and inventing wholly original culinary concoctions––including ice cream made with garlic and the bitter, herb-based liqueur known as Fernet Branca. But Gerald’s idyll is about to be shattered by the arrival of Marta, on the run from a crime-riddled former Soviet republic, as a series of misunderstandings brings this odd couple into ever closer and more disastrous proximity . . . “Provokes the sort of indecorous involuntary laughter that has more in common with sneezing than chuckling. Imagine a British John Waters crossed with David Sedaris.” —The New York Times
Beyond Child's Play
Sustainable product design is more than eco design: it goes beyond 'green' to consider the work environment, community impacts, consumer health, and economic viability, as well as environmental attributes. "Beyond Child's Play" explores the concept of sustainable product design in the context of the global doll-making industry. To initiate this research, the author reviewed eco design parameters and developed criteria for sustainable product design in the doll-making industry. Using this framework, she conducted three case studies of do I making: the American Girl doll produced in China, the Kathe Kruse doll produced in Germany and the Q'ewar Project doll produced in Peru. Themes emerged fro...
