  Zeke’s childhood dream of being a pilot in the Alliance Military has been shattered. A hellish mission to an alien planet left him injured, traumatised, and with the majority of his crew dead. So now, he spends his days drowning his sorrows in alcohol, and wondering what the hell he’s supposed to do with the brainwashed slave who accidentally imprinted on him at the tail end of that doomed assignment. 
   
  Dax knows he’s not good at obeying his master. He’s always struggled to follow instructions, seeing better ways to complete a task, or wanting to point out the pitfalls to an unwise course of action. But how is he supposed to please his master, if the man’s only desire is to drown himself in a bottle? 
   
  After far too long spent wallowing in doubt and self-pity, Zeke and Dax’s lives are interrupted by the arrival of Aiden Hill, a Lieutenant in the Alliance Military who claims to have cracked the code as to how a human master and a Vangravian slave can live peacefully together. 
   
  But for each of them, the chance at a brighter future comes with a terrifying cost. For Zeke, it means confronting his demons and dealing with the trauma from his failed mission. And for Dax? It means turning his entire world upside down, so that he is no longer the follower in this most unconventional of relationships, but the leader.

  Len Deighton—one of the masters of twentieth-century espionage fiction—combines his expertise as both historian and novelist in Bomber, the classic World War II novel that relates, in devastating detail, the twenty-four-hour story of an allied bombing raid. 
   
  Skilled Royal Air Force bomber pilot Sam Lambert is exhausted, and his veteran crewmen have just been replaced by an inexperienced new team. Victor von Löwenherz, a German night fighter pilot who intercepts RAF bombers in his Junkers Ju 88, looks on with horror at the Nazi regime. And Hansl, a German boy in the small market town of Altgarten, sleeps at home. Lambert and his crew prepare for a bombing raid on the Ruhr area. It’s a night that 
  many will never forget. 
   
  Bomber is a masterful, gripping, minute-by-minute account of what occurs over the next twenty-four hours. Told through the eyes of protag­onists on all sides and astonishingly precise in its depictions of planes, weapons, and behind-the-scenes war strategy, this is Len Deighton at his best. An unforgettable portrait of war, both in the air and on the ground.

  1521: The Defiance - A...

  History remembers the fall of Ferdinand Magellan, but it forgets the lives caught in his death's shadow. 
  1521: The Defiance is not merely a retelling of the Battle of Mactan. It is a reckoning with how history is written, who is remembered, and whose stories endure. 
  Drawing from Antonio Pigafetta's chronicle, the only surviving firsthand account of Magellan's final expedition, and grounded in precolonial Visayan culture, this novel explores the lives, fears, and convictions of those who stood on both sides of this historic encounter between islanders and empire. 
  Written by a Filipino author rooted in the land where these events unfolded, 1521: The Defiance reimagines the human stories behind the clash, filling the silences between recorded facts with narrative, emotion, and cultural memory. It offers a perspective rarely centered in colonial histories, one that restores agency, dignity, and complexity to those long reduced to footnotes. 
  This is a story of belief and resistance, of men who sought to change the world, and of those who refused to let it be taken from them. 
    
  "Tell me, Antonio. What will your pages call him if we cannot make him bend?" 
  The Venetian hesitated, then gave a thin smile. 
  "A rebel, perhaps. Or a heathen. Or…" 
  He glanced at his parchment, as if unsure. 
  "Or a fool who defied destiny."
