Genonn’s tired and dreams of a remote roundhouse in the Cuala Mountains.

However, sudden rebellion in Roman Britain destroys that dream because the Elder Council task him with delivering Lorg Mór, the Hammer of the Gods, to the tribes across the straits of Pwll Ceris. Despite being torn between a waning sense of duty and his desire to become a hermit, Genonn finally agrees to help.

When his daughter follows him into danger, it tests his resolve. He wants to do everything he can to see her back to Druid Island and her mother. This new test of will means he is once again conflicted between duty and desire. Ultimately, his sense of duty wins; is it the right decision? Has he done the right thing by relegating his daughter’s safety below his commitment to the clans?

His question remains unanswered until after the battle when Queen Boudica’s army is crushed. The answer is destined to change Agricola and his future, creating one of Rome’s most famed military minds!

“For You, Sweetheart” is a two-language book for teenagers and about teenagers (the first boy in love, the first kiss, the first experiments, the first sex). Situations are revealed not only from the point of view of the main character, a guy, but also a woman, who gives an assessment and understanding of what is happening based on her life experience. The main goal of the book is to help teenagers find answers to their questions, which sometimes they don’t even have anyone to ask; find a way out of difficult situations; give an understanding and feeling that they are not alone in their life situation and that they can always find a way out. The book will also be interesting for the older generation, allowing to dive into the memories of the past. The story is easy to read and captivating, creating the impression of an autobiography.

Это книга для подростков и о подростках (первый влюбленный мальчик, первый поцелуй, первые эксперименты, первый секс). Ситуации раскрываются не только с точки зрения главной героини, парня, но и уже взрослой женщины, которая даёт оценку и понимание происходящего исходя из своего жизненного опыта. Основная цель книги помочь подросткам найти ответы на свои вопросы, которые иногда даже некому задать; найти выход из сложных ситуаций; дать понимание и ощущение того, что они не одни в свой жизненной ситуации и всегда можно найти выход. Книга так же будет интересна и для более старшего поколения, позволив окунуться в воспоминания прошлого. История читается легко и увлекает, создает впечатление автобиографии.

In volume three of this widely-praised dark fantasy anthology series, the Night Bazaar, a secret marketplace of the rare, strange, occult, and dangerous, journeys to 19th century London. There, as usual, its vendors will purvey curious services, forbidden wares, and rare objects which cannot be had elsewhere, for any price. The midnight market has operated throughout history in various locales, appearing in a city for one week only, never to return.

This time the Bazaar’s proprietress, the enigmatic and unflappable Madame Vera, escorts the reader on an eerie, fantastical British tour in ten linked short stories by various authors. Some tales feature such recognizable luminaries as Sherlock Holmes, occultist Madam Blavatsky, and Queen Anne Boleyn. Several take place during the Bazaar proper, while others occur earlier or later, tied to its 1880 London appearance by a curse or spell – or, by an object found, inherited, purchased, or stolen during the decades since, by the unsuspecting, foolish, or greedy (though seldom the completely innocent).

Together, these ten linked stories take readers on a fantastical journey into astonishment, dread, and dark delight. The Night Bazaar still holds everything you’ve read about but thought had passed away, or perhaps never existed at all. How wrong you were! But be warned: as usual, each object or service comes with a gift, a curse, or a haunting. . . .

Angelica, 14, has reached three conclusions. Firstly, her mother Molly, who manages a rundown hotel on the wild Drisogue peninsula in Donegal, is desperately lonely. (She’s not.) 

Secondly, it’s entirely her fault that Molly is still single.

(It might be.) 

Thirdly, since she can hardly have a boyfriend of her own if Number 2 is true, it’s up to her to find her mother a man.

(It really isn’t.) 

Given her dangerously impressive gift for matchmaking, Angelica’s solution is to develop a dating website for her mum. With the questions devised by Angelica and best friend, Grace, what could possibly go wrong?
