The Kingdom of Athanasia is all abuzz as Prince Kevin is about to marry Taryn, the beautiful girl who mysteriously appeared at the castle on Christmas Eve and stole his heart. Taryn also won the Queen’s admiration when she represented the kingdom on a mission to the tropical land of Jabalia, where she met Princess Jameela and her childhood friend and escort, Zuberi. Athanasia has a unique custom where they unveil the Princess Tiara in a formal ceremony a few days before the wedding. Princess Jameela and Zuberi arrive in the kingdom as guests for the wedding just before the Tiara Ceremony. On the night before the ceremony King Matthew, Kevin’s father, tells the young wedding party about the history of the tiara and how a jealous suitor almost ruined the wedding of Kevin’s great-grandfather to his new princess, who would become Kevin’s great-grandmother. The Tiara Ceremony goes off without a hitch, but afterward the Tiara is missing, having been stolen. Taryn and Kevin are distraught as they must have a tiara to crown the new princess at the wedding, which is just days away. But hope arises with a clue from the royal library, the very room where Kevin first fell in love with Taryn as they shared their love for stories. Will Taryn, Kevin, and their friends from Jabalia be able to find the thief and recover the tiara in time for the wedding? Adventure awaits our young friends as Taryn’s dream is about to come true.Ver libro
"It is the horrible texture of a fabric that should be woven of ships' cables and hawsers. A Polar wind blows through it, and birds of prey hover over it." So Melville wrote of his masterpiece, one of the greatest works of imagination in literary history. In part, Moby-Dick is the story of an eerily compelling madman pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than an encyclopaedia of whaling lore and legend, the book can be seen as part of its author's lifelong meditation on America. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour, Moby-Dick is also a profound inquiry into character, faith, and the nature of perception.Ver libro

""Alice in Blunderland: An Iridescent Dream" is a novel by John Kendrick Bangs, first published in 1907 by Doubleday, Page & Co. of New York. Illustrated by Albert Levering, this work serves as a political parody of Lewis Carroll's famous Alice books: "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" (1865) and "Through the Looking-Glass" (1871). In this whimsical tale, Alice finds herself in "Blunderland", also humorously referred to as "Municipal Ownership Country". Here, she encounters familiar characters from Wonderland, including the dormouse, the Mad Hatter, and the Cheshire Cat. However, instead of whimsical adventures, Alice grapples with issues critical of collectivism, taxation, corporate greed, and corruption. The novel playfully transports readers to a satirical realm where absurdity meets political commentary. "Ver libro
“By turns heartbreaking and heart-swelling, this is the story of a working-class boy overcoming grinding violence to play among the rock gods. Every hopeless boy should read it.” - Caitlin Moran Jack Jones is a wordsmith with a guitar. Best known as the singer and guitarist of TRAMPOLENE and lead guitarist with Peter Doherty & The Puta Madres, his work blends spoken word, raw honesty, and melodic power. TRAMPOLENE’s fierce, poetic rock ’n’ roll has won the admiration of The Libertines, Liam Gallagher, and John Cooper Clarke, with two No.1 Independent Albums and the honour of opening Swansea Arena in 2022. Jack’s story is one of survival and defiance. By five he had survived a bone tumour and begun to see the cracks in the world; by sixteen he was living with Crohn’s Disease. Through it all, the constants have been his blistering guitar and his poetry - about the struggles and dreams of everyday life, about love, adversity, growing up in Swansea, and seeing the world as it is. “Jack Jones’ words light up the printed page like magnesium released into oxygen.” - Pete Paphides This audiobook gathers that same voice - sharp, funny, vulnerable, and unflinchingly real.Ver libro
