Sinopsis

In the wake of the Great Blackout, faced with the near-extinction of humanity, a pair of lovers speak to each other. They parse, with precision, with familiarity, the endless aspects of their love. Out of their dialogues, piece by piece, a composite image of love takes form, one that moves outwards beyond the realm of relationships and into metaphysics, geology, linguistics, AI.

   Years previously, a writer and her husband, a Latin professor, stay in Venice while she works on a text. As they roam the city, strange occurrences accumulate, signalling that the world around them is heading towards a point of no return.

   Blending fiction and essay, poetry and philosophy, Agustín Fernández Mallo's The Book of All Loves is a startling, expansive work of imaginative agility, one that renders love unfamiliar so as to renew it, and makes the case for hope in the midst of a disintegrating present.

    The heavens exploded and rained destruction down upon the world of Palar, hurling the Gods from their thrones and shattering their kingdoms. 
    The world of Palar died that day but humanity did not. Thousands of survivors eventually found themselves drawn to the strange city of Horizon, which was built from pieces of fallen heaven and hell. 
    Humanity found shelter there, and they found hope.

    Kel has to work fast to solve a mystery that threatens the Last City, but he’s not alone. Because to find the answers, he has the help of a mysterious alchemist, the masked priests of the Goddess of Love, and a zombie necromancer priest. 
    It's a tale of murder, deceit, and of magic best left alone, and a secret that, when revealed, will change the face of Palar forever...

    Honourable Rebel - The Memoirs...

    Honourable Rebel tells the remarkable story of The Honourable Elizabeth Montagu, a woman born into the upper echelons of British society who defied expectations to forge a life of fierce independence, artistic brilliance, and covert service. 
      
     Raised in a world of privilege, Elisabeth chose passion over propriety, becoming a celebrated pianist, a gifted librettist, and a powerful presence in British cultural life. She was fluent in four European languages, a skill that not only deepened her creative reach but would later prove vital during wartime intelligence work. 
      
     She moved easily among artistic giants — Toscanini, Horowitz, Edwin Fischer, Benjamin Britten, Peter Pears — not as a mere admirer, but as a creative collaborator and kindred spirit. In theatre and film, she worked both in front of the camera and behind the scenes, collaborating with cinematic legends like Orson Welles, Joseph Cotten, Graham Greene, and Sir Alexander Korda, as both an actress and respected film dialogue director. 
      
     During the Second World War, Elizabeth turned her intellect and multilingual talents to espionage, serving in British intelligence. She lived many lives — artist, spy, aristocrat, and cultural connector — but was always herself: daring, original, and unapologetically independent. Her story, long hidden in the margins of history, comes vividly to life in this audiobook, wonderfully narrated by Dorothea Myer-Benett who also played Elizabeth in the Drama Documentary based on the book, reminding us that rebels don’t always ride into battle — sometimes they play the piano.
