Dragon Lords Rising
Moonbeam Children's Book Award double silver medalist A gnome, a girl and a dwarf fly north on an injured battledragon in the depth of winter to search for the missing Commander of the Stealth Dragon Services. Throw in a spy, an overweight dragon fledgling who's so plump he cannot fly, and a renegade Sorcerer Warlock hot on their tail, and it seems like a quest doomed to failure from the outset.
Music and Flowers
Born into a close-knit Scottish family in the 1930s, Anna Rosalind Hutchison's idyllic childhood in Clydeside led to a lifelong passion for flowers, music and literature. Family holidays on the Isle of Arran deepened her love of the natural world and describes a timeless way of life that was rapidly changing forever. Even the upheaval of her evacuation and her brothers' wartime service couldn't disturb this close family group. Music & Flowers is a charming and evocative memoir which brings the decades of the 1930s and 1940s to life. It will delight readers of all ages interested in history, nature and music.

Stealth Dragon Services
'The SDS must change if we are to survive. We have to become one people again, as we once were, who live and train and fight together. You have both demonstrated your ability to do this, young though you both are. You come from different peoples; one noble born, the other the son of a scout. One desiring to fly dragons when tradition allows only men to do so; the other proving in the best tradition of his people that you do not need to wield a sword in your hand to protect those you love.'

The Dragon Whisperer
(This is the 2nd edition so all 45 reviews are found under the first edition April 2011) Fantasy Book Review 9/10 Reading Lucinda Hare's debut novel The Dragon Whisperer is like riding a dragon. You have to hold on tight during the twist and turns, take time to stop and enjoy the breathtaking view, prepare yourself for the sudden lows, enjoy the soaring heights and make sure you're not on the wrong end of that fiery breath! A tale hatched from Hare's real-life experiences and devotion to all kinds of animals, The Dragon Whisperer follows Earl's daughter (and dragon whisperer), eleven year old Quenelda. Her best friend is a battle-dragon with the comically cautionary name of Two Gulps and You...
The Sorcerers Glen
Fantasy Book Review Fans of Hare's previous books The Dragonsdome Chronicles will be delighted with The Sorcerer's Glen. It bears all the trademarks of classic Hare - brave female characters, hilarious side-kicks and Hare's characteristic wit (What's a vegetarian and how do you cook them?). There is one big difference with this book - it is set in our world. Fear not, this doesn't mean fantastical realms are long-gone...but Hare presents our world as a different kind of magic. In the opening pages we are introduced to the charming village of Thistleburr. If you live in a city - you're going to wish you lived here. If you live in a village - you're going to wish you lived here. If you live in...

Vodka and Pickled Cabbage
One of the most amazing 'events' of the last 25 or so years has been the complete transformation of the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union, their transition from communist rule and central planning to various forms of market-type economy. Ten of the countries have now joined the EU as full members, and for them this accession marks the real end of the Cold War, the end of the postwar divide between East and West. As a professional economist - initially as a PhD student, eventually as an economics professor based in Scotland - I have worked on the region since the late 1960s, travelling to diverse places in many countries, getting to know the people, observing...
