Описание: Cyril, Bishop of Alexandria (412-444), is best known as a protagonist in the christological controversy of the second quarter of the fifth century. Readers may be surprised therefore to find such polemic absent from this early work on the twelve minor prophets of the Old Testament. Cyril appears in this work as a balanced commentator, eclectic in his attitude and tolerant of alternative views.

Описание:

A volume written as homage to Arthur C. Clarke's Tales from the White Hart, featuring original stories from many of today's top genre writers, including Neil Gaiman, Charles Stross, Stephen Baxter, James Lovegrove, Liz Williams, Adam Roberts, Eric Brown, Ian Watson, and David Langford.

The Fountain: a traditional London pub situated in Holborn, just off Chancery Lane, where Michael, the landlord, serves excellent real ales and dodgy ploughman's, ably assisted by barmaids Sally and Bogna.

The Fountain, in whose Paradise bar a group of friends - scientists, writers and genre fans - meet regularly on a Tuesday night to swap anecdotes, reveal wondrous events from their past, tell tall tales, talk of classified invention and, maybe, just maybe, save the world...

Описание: The poems in Ian Williams`s Personals are jittery, plaintive, and decidedly fresh. Williams pays beautiful homage to traditional poetic forms: ghazals, a pantoum, blank sonnets, mock-heroic couplets, while simultaneously showcasing his own inventiveness and linguistic dexterity through the creation of brand new forms: poems that spin into indeterminacy, poems that don`t end.

SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2019 AMAZON CANADA FIRST NOVEL AWARD

A hilarious, surprising and poignant love story about the way families are invented, told with the savvy of a Zadie Smith and with an inventiveness all Ian Williams' own, Reproduction bangs lives together in a polyglot suburb of Toronto.

Felicia and Edgar meet as their mothers are dying. Felicia, a teen from an island nation, and Edgar, the lazy heir of a wealthy German family, come together only because their mothers share a hospital room. When Felicia's mother dies and Edgar's "Mutter" does not, Felicia drops out of high school and takes a job as Mutter's caregiver. While Felicia and Edgar don't quite understand each other, and Felicia recognizes that Edgar is selfish, arrogant, and often unkind, they form a bond built on grief (and proximity) that results in the birth of a son Felicia calls Armistice. Or Army, for short.

Some years later, Felicia and Army (now 14) are living in the basement of a home owned by Oliver, a divorced man of Portuguese descent who has two kids--the teenaged Heather and the odd little Hendrix. Along with Felicia and Army, they form an unconventional family, except that Army wants to sleep with Heather, and Oliver wants to kill Army. Then Army's fascination with his absent father--and his absent father's money--begins to grow as odd gifts from Edgar begin to show up. And Felicia feels Edgar's unwelcome shadow looming over them. A brutal assault, a mortal disease, a death, and a birth reshuffle this group of people again to form another version of the family.

Reproduction is a profoundly insightful exploration of the bizarre ways people become bonded that insists that family isn't a matter of blood.

Описание:

Criminal cases raise difficult normative and legal questions, and are often a consequence of compelling human drama. In this collection, expert authors place leading cases in criminal law in their historical and legal contexts, highlighting their significance both in the past and for the present.

The cases in this volume range from the fifteenth to the twenty-first century. Many of them are well known to modern criminal lawyers and students; others are overlooked landmarks that deserve reconsideration. The essays, often based on extensive and original archival research, range over a wide spectrum of criminal law, covering procedure and doctrine, statute and common law, individual offences and general principles. Together, the essays explore common themes, including the scope of criminal law and criminalisation, the role of the jury, and the causes of change in criminal law.

Great Stories Written Badly includes:

A Letter to Santa:
For those who believe in the spirit of Christmas year-round, this is Susan's story. How a desperately ill child can suffuse her family with all the strength, they will need to go on without her. There is Lapland, snow, northern lights and magical animals but at the heart of it is her mother's wish for one last very special holiday.

Driftwood:
An escape-from-it-all holiday cottage on the shores of an island off Western Scotland is the setting for this tale of love and intrigue. A dive onto the wreck of a Second World War plane has Tom and Elly wondering quite what they have found. Is the cottage haunted, what do the locals know and can the owner help in any way?

With Molly, their lively and adorable springer spaniel, Tom and Elly resolve a long-standing mystery and ease the burden of an old lady as she lays dying.
This tale of love, ghosts, and history is beautifully wrapped up

Creek Falls:
Tom and Elly James are heading for the Scottish Highlands with their young dog, Cosmo, son of Molly who starred in their earlier adventure, Driftwood.
Their camping trip takes a ghostly turn when Elly finds a beautiful earring near a famous waterfall. A strange dog attaches himself to them, and they meet Meena who seems to take hold of them.

Why has Tom heard a scream at the Falls and what is it about the smell of smoke from a steam train?

This is the second in a series of stories following the couple and their springer spaniels, Molly and Cosmo.

Draw Yourself a Picture and Step in:
Ruby is a successful painter much in demand for her seascapes. Henry is a successful businessman, philanthropist and collector of Ruby's work. When Henry visits Ruby's studio to look over her latest work he disappears leaving only a cheque in advance payment for the piece. This is no murder mystery - not a corpse or a copper in sight

Locked In:
John and Alex are happily married and love walking and climbing in the Isle of Skye. Alex has a good job and feels less free to take to the hills so John likes to take off alone on the good days. But a good day can easily become a bad one - a very bad one indeed.
John's accident leaves him in a coma and Alex in a limbo place of love and loss. They are both on a journey but will they ever be together again? Is John forever locked in and Alex locked out?

Locked In is a passionate tale of love for another and love for the mountains woven with the dedication of a medical team and the unknown world of the unconscious mind.
