    'A fascinating exposé on the history and crazy controversies' MARK TIGHE
From Feis fixing to false allegations, why are the dance halls across this island such a hotbed for rumour and controversy?
Irish dancing may sparkle on the stage – glittering costumes, perfect smiles, flawless footwork – but behind the polished performances lies a world far less picture perfect.
When an explosive whistleblower email lands in the inbox of journalist Ellen Coyne, she is pulled into the high stakes, fiercely protected realm of competitive Irish dance. What she uncovers is a culture simmering with resentment and rivalry: allegations of feis fixing, toxic politics, whispered scandals and rumours that reach the biggest stages in the world.
As Ellen follows the trail, the immaculate world of Irish dancing begins to crack open, revealing a community where ambition can turn corrosive and where the pursuit of victory often comes at an unbearable cost.

    What could the supernatural world of Stranger Things have in common with the Bible? The paranormal television series Stranger Things taps into the mysterious elements that have fueled spiritual questions for millennia. The otherworldly manifestations in Hawkins, Indiana offer compelling portrayals of important spiritual truths--and many of these truths are echoed in the supernatural worldview of the Bible.  For Michael Heiser, Stranger Things is the perfect marriage of his interest in popular culture and the paranormal. In The Unseen Realm, he opened the eyes of thousands, helping readers understand the supernatural worldview of the Bible. Now he turns his attention to the worldwide television phenomenon, exploring how Stranger Things relates to Christian theology and the Christian life.  In The World Turned Upside Down, Heiser draws on this supernatural worldview to help us think about the story of Jesus and discover glimpses of the gospel in the Upside Down. He argues that this celebrated series helps us understand the gospel in unique and overlooked ways. The spiritual questions and crises raised by Stranger Things are addressed the same way they are in the gospel, with mystery and transcendent power.

    Discover how to awaken the magic of the elements in your outdoor space through thoughtful planting, careful planning of features and simple spells and rituals.

Modern witchcraft is a nature-based discipline, harnessing the power of plants, the spirit of the land, the benefits of each season and the cycle of nature. Inspired by the Five Elements – Spirit, Air, Fire, Water and Earth – and based on author Clare Gogerty's own experience, Your Magical Garden will encourage you to look at your outdoor space with a witch's eye. Each chapter is based on one of the Five Elements and offers details about the element and its potency, how to work with it in your garden, what plants are associated with it, and corresponding remedies, rituals and spells. You will learn how to create spiritual features, such as a moon gate, leaf mandala, scrying pool and fire pit, as well as ways to care for nature, such as rewilding to create a haven for plants and wildlife. Discover the wonder of re-enchanting your garden, however small, and creating a place of contemplation, meditation and connection with the earth.
