They call her many things. Witch, Nagual warrior, lady, Pantera. And after defeating the Obsidian Butterfly, Leonora carries a new name: Godslayer. Peace in Mexico City is fragile. Rebellion brews in the North, and with the people’s safety at risk, Pantera must once again become the demure viceregent Leonora to stop a war before it begins. But her friends are scattered, Tezca is gone, and one wrong move could seal her fate. Caution is her ally, for the real Prince of Asturias – her former betrothed – has arrived at court, reigniting rumours Leonora and Pantera are one. Meanwhile, a greater threat looms in the mountains, where a false king seeks to summon the god of night using a weapon of untold power. It’s up to the Godslayer to confront this enemy… and the one growing within her. Only by embracing her divine origins can Leonora triumph over the forces of darkness – and maybe even spark a revolution that could change Mexico’s fate forever.

'A gripping thriller and Belkin is a character many readers will want to encounter again' THE TIMES 'A heartbreaking and passionate novel of the cruelty and fragility of love, death and life in Stalinist Russia' SIMON SEBAG MONTEFIORE Moscow, 1934. Moscow's glittering new subway is under construction at last. The first line will run through the centre of the city, cutting deep through Moscow soil. But futures cannot be created without digging up the past. Though Russia's leaders want to build a glorious Soviet capital, what holds them in a fatal grip is history: old mud and bones. Anton Belkin is an Investigator at the Procuracy, a sensitive job at a dangerous moment on the road to the Show Trials. He is also someone who needs to keep his head down. His artist father was once the darling of the revolutionary avant-garde, a painter whose work could inspire devotion and great sacrifice. But now his dreams are out of place, too loud and red in Stalin's world of sterile rules and rubber stamps. Anton is dragged into a murder case. A prominent archaeologist, working alongside the subway dig, has been killed in a deserted mansion. Though Anton doesn't want the job, his former lover, Vika, who is now a powerful member of the secret police, browbeats him into paying a visit to the site with her. Against his better judgement he is drawn to follow though, embarking on investigations that will almost certainly get him killed. Deep underground, he finds a priceless secret that could genuinely unlock the future but links him to a vicious internecine fight for power in the young Soviet state. In the process, he is forced to reconsider the history he shares with Vika and the bonds that bind them both. Moscow Underground is a sweeping novel of life, death and politics in the quicksand world of Stalin's tyranny.

In a radical new story about the birth of our species, The Origin of Language argues that it was not hunting, fighting, or tool-making that forced early humans to speak, but the inescapable need to care for our children. Journeying to the dawn of Homo sapiens, evolutionary biologist Madeleine Beekman reveals the “happy accidents” hidden in our molecular biology—DNA, chromosomes, and proteins—that led to one of the most fateful events in the history of life on Earth: our giving birth to babies earlier in their development than our hominid cousins the Neanderthals and Denisovans. Faced with highly dependent infants requiring years of nurturing and protection, early human communities needed to cooperate and coordinate, and it was this unprecedented need for communication that triggered the creation of human language—and changed everything. Infused with cutting-edge science, sharp humour, and insights into the history of biology and its luminaries, Beekman weaves a narrative that’s both enlightening and entertaining. Challenging the traditional theories of male luminaries like Chomksy, Pinker, and Harari, she invites us into the intricate world of molecular biology and its ancient secrets. The Origin of Language is a tour de force by a brilliant biologist on how a culture of cooperation and care have shaped our existence.

Saffy Huntley-Oliver's life is going great. Even better than usual! She's got a fabulous new boyfriend, Jonathan, and they are crazy in love; she has literally got away with (lots of) murder; her favourite hairstylist has got out of jail so she can finally get a proper blow-out; and now that she's no longer single, she can get back to her favourite hobby of killing all the bad men she can find. Well. There are one or two teensy snags. For one, her beloved sister Susie is still dating that manbunned toerag Finlay and it is so hard not to murder him. For another, Jonathan's dog, Girl, sheds a lot, and so Saffy can no longer wear anything velvet or black. Jonathan himself seems to have lost his taste for murder, and is ignoring all the tempting corpses that Saffy keeps putting in his way, which is a crying shame because he looks so sexy covered in blood. All of this would be easy to ignore in the flush of new love; except that those idiot police keep on sniffing around, looking for whoever killed that kinky sex pest Tory. And Susie keeps on forwarding inspirational Instagram memes that relate eerily to Saffy's latest murders. And someone has cut the brakes on her car, and stolen her favourite knife, and even-so rude-killed one of her marks before she could reach him. The police are never going to find her...but has someone else?

Bring structure, clarity, and purpose to every reading.   For many who read tarot—and those new to tarot—spreads can offer a lot of power, clarity, and purpose to readings. Tarot spreads, intentional arrangements for tarot cards that include a particular meaning or prompt for each card, help us to ask focused, direct questions of our cards. Rather than focusing on premade cookie-cutter layouts, Meg Jones Wall takes you to the very foundation of tarot spreads so that you can understand how and why a spread is created and how it works. This book will walk you through reading spreads as well as writing and revising original spreads, giving you everything you need to understand, develop, tweak, and test tarot spreads of your very own.  Learn to adapt and revise card spreads to deepen your exploration.   Meg encourages you to release yourself from the expectation that you need to use a spread precisely as written in order to get the full benefit of a layout in your reading. Spreads are infinitely customizable to suit your own needs, preferences, and experience level. While the cards can offer clarity in a variety of ways, tarot spreads can help us be more direct about what we want to know, explore, question, and understand. No matter our question, concern, or situation, tarot spreads empower us to be clear about what we need from our reading.   At the core of every spread are the prompts—the meanings given to each card positioned in a layout. So that you can more effectively write and design your own spread, Meg offers over 200 prompts and suggestions for simple one-card to five-card layouts for a variety of intentions from relationships to self-awareness to community to wealth, and includes special recommended spreads for lunar cycles, the zodiac, the archetypes, the sabbats, the elements, and more.

‘David Goldblatt is possibly the best football historian there has ever been’. Dominic Sandbrook ‘David Goldblatt is the greatest British sportswriter of the 21st century … Injury Time is an absolute classic.’ James Montague, author of The Billionaires Club and Engulfed Football, history and the state of the nation – and why it matters Injury Time is a sharp and thought provoking look at contemporary British society through the lens of football; a society shaken by more than a decade of economic, political and social upheaval, whose causes and consequences have proved hard to grasp. Set against the backdrop of Brexit, Covid and today’s ‘polycrisis’ – spanning economic decline, war in Europe, political unrest and climate change – this book argues that football provides an unmatched vantage point for understanding the nation’s state of affairs. From grassroots clubs battling for survival to the rise and fall of Russian oligarchs in the sport, the game’s tragedies and triumphs echo the larger shifts shaping Britain. With striking examples such as Marcus Rashford’s anti-hunger campaign and the uproar surrounding Gary Lineker’s tweets, Injury Time underscores football’s central role in public conversation. Football, Goldblatt contends, is the ultimate societal bellwether – a reflection of Britain’s virtues and flaws alike.

I wasn’t always a goddess, you see. My only real power was my beauty – you’ll have heard. It’s legendary. But that was never going to be enough for me.

And all he wanted in return was for me to love him back. But of course, Zeus was a tyrant. (Not entirely surprising when you’re ninety per cent insecurities and ten per cent raw power.)
