'not only have we scaled the mighty Alps, I believe we have climbed the very walls of Rome' - Hannibal 218 BC. Sphax is seventeen and haunted by the brutal murder of his parents at the hands of Rome. After ten years of miserable slavery he will make his last bid for freedom and go in search of Hannibal's army and his birthright. He will have his revenge on the stinking cesspit that is Rome! Destiny will see him taken under the wing of Maharbal, Hannibal's brilliant general, and groomed to lead the finest horsemen in the world - the feared Numidian cavalry that would become the scourge of Rome. From the crossing of the great Rhodanus River, Sphax's epic journey takes him through the lands of the Gaul to the highest pass in the Alps. This is the story of the most famous march in history. A march against impossible odds, against savage mountain Gauls, a brutal winter and Sphax's own demons. This is more than a struggle for empire. This is the last great war to save the beauty of the old world, the civilized world of Carthage, Greece and Gaul. The world of art and philosophy - before it is ground into dust by the upstart barbarity of Rome.

Pet Politics

Although scholars in the disciplines of law, psychology, philosophy, and sociology have published a considerable number of prescriptive, normative, and theoretical studies of animals in society, Pet Politics presents the first study of the development of companion animal or pet law and policy in Canada and the United States by political scientists. The authors examine how people and governments classify three species of pets or companion animals-cats, dogs, and horses-for various degrees of legal protection. They then detail how interest groups shape the agenda for companion animal legislation and regulation, and the legislative and administrative formulation of anticruelty, kennel licensing...

The Notorious Kidd follows on from volume one, The Audacious Kidd, which recounted Kidd's tough upbringing in war-torn London, his move to Australia as a teenager and his apprenticeship in crime, leading from petty theft to safe cracking, race fixing and counterfeiting.

Constantly dreaming up more complex and challenging schemes, Kidd embarks on increasingly hazardous ventures, reaching a peak with a series of mid-air heists, and mixing with some of Australia's most dangerous and notorious mobsters. After his best friend is murdered while Kidd is in a Qu...
