Synopsis

Alex Wintour: orphan, teenager, oracle, thief.

Alex has only got this far in life by living off her wits. Well, that and an ability to see glimpses of the future – a useful talent when you need to stay one step ahead of the law.

Then a robbery goes wrong, and her path is set on a collision course with the enigmatic teen millionaire Colman Reece. Like Alex, Cole is a Temporal – someone who can manipulate time – and he needs Alex's help for a heist that only she can pull off.

But with the clock ticking, the sinister Temple on their tail and the hunt for a mysterious weapon underway, Alex soon learns that even being able to see the future doesn't always give you the winning hand...

The first in an action-packed new series, perfect for fans of ARTEMIS FOWL, ALEX RIDER and LOCKWOOD AND CO.

    Will he ever get back to his own time, his mum and Annie? And does he even really want to?

    Process - The Forest Thinks and...

    Process by A. E. van Vogt drops us into a living world where the forest is not just scenery. It thinks. It remembers. And when a starship lands, the planet’s ancient guardian begins defending its territory using forces that are far beyond imagination. The ship burns, battles, resists — but the forest has learned its lessons from ages past, and what begins as simple growth soon becomes something far more dangerous. 
    As the story unfolds, the forest recalls wars with neighboring forests, defenses built root by root, and weapons discovered through painful trial. When the humans harvest radioactive metal, the forest discovers a catastrophic solution it can barely control. What it unleashes changes the balance of power forever, while the humans flee without realizing what they’ve left behind. 
    A. E. van Vogt is one of the foundational voices of classic science fiction. Born in Canada, he became famous during the Golden Age for imaginative and philosophical tales that explored alien minds, future wars, and strange new worlds. His work often asks what intelligence really is — and what happens when human logic meets something entirely different. 
    Known for novels like “Slan,” “The Weapon Shops of Isher,” and “The World of Null-A,” van Vogt inspired generations of writers. Process showcases the imagination that made him unforgettable, blending wonder, fear, and cosmic scale into a story that lingers long after the final page.

    "The Antiracist: A Practical Guide to Combat Racism and Promote Equality" is a comprehensive and thought-provoking book that delves into the history, forms, and impacts of racism, and offers practical strategies for individuals to become active agents of change in their own lives and communities. Through a mix of personal narrative, historical analysis, and policy analysis, the author unpacks the complexities of racism and provides concrete steps that anyone can take to challenge and resist it. 
    The book begins by defining and contextualizing racism, exploring its roots in history and the ways in which it has evolved over time. It then examines the various forms that racism takes in contemporary society, including institutional racism and racial discrimination, and the ways in which these impact individuals and communities. 
    The second half of the book focuses on the antiracist movement and the strategies that can be used to combat racism. The author discusses the history of antiracist efforts and the various approaches being taken today, both at the grassroots and institutional level. The book also provides practical advice on how individuals can take action in their own lives, including how to speak out against racism, advocate for policy changes, and support marginalized communities. 
    Through compelling storytelling and rigorous analysis, "The Antiracist" challenges readers to confront the realities of racism and to take meaningful action to create a more just and equitable society.
