Mad scientists, supernatural dangers, and a series of all-too-human challenges will confront two unlikely heroes in The Clockwork Girl, an unforgettable journey into the farthest reaches of the imagination. Tesla, a mechanical girl brought to life by her Victor Frankenstein-like creator, faces a wall of fear, intolerance, and superstition in her steam-shrouded castle—but when she discovers a friend in Huxley, a mutant boy from the circus sideshow, then the pair of outcasts will finally learn what it is to be human. The award-winning Clockwork Girl comic books, now in an enthralling graphic novel compendium perfect for fans of Scott Pilgrim, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Marvel Comics’ The Wizard of Oz, is a one-of-a-kind paranormal tale of steampunk science, breathless suspense, and riveting adventure.

Sean O'Reilly's debut novel is a journey inside the dark psyche of Niall, a young man on the run from the past and denying himself a future. Arriving in Derry, years after he left for a wandering life, Niall finds that very little has changed. The streets are still blighted by sectarian violence and the grubby pubs still cater for the lost and lonely. Just as his memories, fears or desires threaten to consume him, Niall enters into a complicated relationship, with Lorna, a committed socialist with a dark side of her own. Haunted by a past that only gradually gives up its secrets and insensate for most of the time through a cocktail of booze and drugs. Niall lives his life to extremes, testing and pushing himself ever closer to destruction. Love and Sleep confirms O'Reilly's rising reputation as a writer of rare lyrical power and urgency.

Compelled by the description of Cripps' extraordinary life in Africa, Sheers embarks on a journey through contemporary Zimbabwe in an attempt to better understand his ancestor's devotion to the country and its people and the dramatic, often bloody, differences that echo across the years.Arriving in Africa at the turn of the last century, Cripps establishes his own mission at Maronda Mashanu; the neighbouring European community soon grow suspicious of Cripps' unorthodox methods, and conflict with the British South Africa Company ensues.Better understood by the Africans he lives with, Cripps devotes his life to defending their interests, walking and running for miles between settlements and serving as a chaplain in East Africa in the First World War. The Shona community name him Mpandi, 'The man who walks like thunder', and when Cripps dies, fifty years after his arrival in his adopted country, he is honoured at his funeral with the burial songs of a Shona chief.
