That was a long time ago, of course. Before she and the others were taken in by the man they called Father. In the years since then, Carolyn hasn't had a chance to get out much. Instead, she and her adopted siblings have studied the books in his Library and learned some of the secrets of his power. And sometimes, they've wondered if their cruel tutor might secretly be God. Now, Father is missing—perhaps even dead—and the Library that holds his secrets stands unguarded. And with it, control over all of creation.

Book SynopsisLet acclaimed Tolkien artist John Howe take you on an unforgettable journey across Middle-earth, from Bag End to Mordor, in this richly illustrated sketchbook fully of previously unseen artwork, anecdotes and meditations on Middle-earth.Middle-earth has been mapped, Bilbo's and Frodo's journeys plotted and measured, but it remains a wilderland for all that. The roads as yet untravelled far outnumber those down which J.R.R. Tolkien led us in his writings.A Middle-earth Traveller presents a walking tour of Tolkien's Middle-earth, visiting not only places central to his stories, but also those just over the hill or beyond the horizon. Events from Tolkien's books are explored battles of the different ages that are almost legend by the time of The Lord of the Rings; lost kingdoms and ancient myths, as well as those places only hinted at: kingdoms of the far North and lands beyond the seas.Sketches that have an on-the-spot' feel to them are interwoven with the artist's observations gleaned from Tolkien's books as he paints pictures with his words as well as his pencil. He also recollects his time spent working alongside Peter Jackson on the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit film trilogies. Combining concept work produced for films, existing Middle-earth art and dozens of new paintings and sketches exclusive to this book, A Middle-earth Traveller will take the reader on a unique and unforgettable journey across Tolkien's magical landscape.Trade ReviewPraise for John Howe:‘A fascinating and enchanting read’Corel Painter

Book SynopsisLawrence brings the Broken Empire series to its devastating conclusionThe path to the throne is broken only the broken can walk itThe world is cracked and time has run through, leaving us clutching at the end days. These are the days that have waited for us all our lives. These are my days. I will stand before the Hundred and they will listen. I will take the throne no matter who stands against me, living or dead, and if I must be the last emperor then I will make of it such an ending.This is where the wise man turns away. This is where the holy kneel and call on God. These are the last miles, my brothers. Don''t look to me to save you. Run if you have the wit. Pray if you have the soul. Stand your ground if courage is yours. But don''t follow me.Follow me, and I will break your heart.Trade ReviewPraise for Prince of Thorns: ‘Dark and relentless, Prince of Thorns will pull you under and drown you in story.

Martin’CONN IGGULDEN ‘[A] morbidly gripping, gritty fantasy tale.’Publishers Weekly ‘Lawrence’s poetic prose is amazing, far and away the best of the modern fantasy authors’PETER V. BRETT

When Women Were Dragons brings the heat to misogyny with glorious imagination and talon-sharp prose.'- Bonnie Garmus, author of LESSONS IN CHEMISTRYIn a world where girls and women are taught to be quiet, the dragons inside them are about to be set free ...In this timely and timeless speculative novel, set in 1950s America, Kelly Barnhill exposes a world that wants to keep girls and women small - and examines what happens when they rise up.Alex Green is four years old when she first sees a dragon in her next-door neighbour's garden, in the spot where the old lady usually sits. The huge dragon, an astonished expression on its face, opens its wings and soars away across the rooftops.And Alex doesn't see the little old lady after that. No one mentions her. It'Trade ReviewIn this soaring coming-of-age novel, Alex brings up her younger cousin Beatrice, awakening to independence, feminism, and identity as she navigates Bea's urge to "dragon". Fans of modern feminist classics such as The Power will find much to admire here, for teenage readers and beyond. -- Fiona Noble * The Observer *Completely fierce, unmistakably feminist, and subversively funny. When Women Were Dragons brings the heat to misogyny with glorious imagination and talon-sharp prose. Check the skies tonight - you might just see your mother. * Bonnie Garmus, author of LESSONS IN CHEMISTRY *In lesser hands the dragon metaphor would feel simplistic and general, but Barnhill uses it to imagine different ways of living, loving, and caring for each other. The result is a complex, heartfelt story about following your heart and opening your mind to new possibilities. This novel's magic goes far beyond the dragons. * Kirkus, starred review *Ferociously imagined and incandescent with feeling. This book is urgent and necessary, and as exhilarating as a ride on dragonback. * Lev Grossman, author of THE MAGICIANS trilogy *[...] it tells a great story of transformation and women becoming who they truly are meant to be, and how it affects those around them. * Web Times *

HarperCollins Publishers The Art of the Lord of the Rings
Book SynopsisA sumptuous full-colour art book containing the complete collection of almost 200 sketches, drawings, paintings and maps created by J.R.R. Tolkien for The Lord of the Rings.As he wrote The Lord of the Rings, J.R.R. Tolkien's mental pictures often found expression in drawing, from rough sketches made within the manuscript to more finished illustrations. Only a few of these were meant for publication; most were aids to help Tolkien conceive his complex story and keep it consistent. Many do not illustrate the final text, but represent moments of creation, illuminating Tolkien's process of writing and design. In addition to pictorial sketches, numerous maps follow the development of the Shire and the larger landscape of Middle-earth, while inscriptions in runes and Elvish script, and facsimile' leaves from the burned and blood-stained Book of Mazarbul, support Tolkien's pose as an editor' or translator' of ancient records.The Art of The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien collects these drawings, inscriptions, maps, and plans in one volume. More than 180 images are included, all of them printed in colour from high-quality scans and photographs. Wayne G. Hammond and Christina Scull, two of the world's leading Tolkien scholars, have edited the book and provide an expert introduction and comments. Readers who have enjoyed The Art of The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien, with which the book is uniform, will find much of interest also in The Art of The Lord of the Rings.Trade Review‘How, given little over half a century of work, did one man become the creative equivalent of a people?’THE GUARDIAN ‘Demanding to be compared with English mythologies… at times rises to the greatness of true myth’FINANCIAL TIMES ‘A creation of singular beauty… magnificent in its best moments’WASHINGTON POST
