  Another Ragbag Of Riches

  Following the original A Ragbag of Riches published in 2017, here is another bundle of funny, factual, thought provoking and charming entries to "mingle quiet music with amiable irreverance". Not just witty, pithy quips and quotations but a diverse collection that have caught the eye or ear of  James Chilton's enquiring mind and zany humour. Drawing from politians, scholars, artists, influential thinkers, jokers and the common man, from antiquity to the contemporary, they are partisan choices contributed to by Chilton's varied life as a soldier, traveller, singer, plantsman, author, painter, busnessman, designer and family man. It is the essence of the commonplace book but organised loosely into topics and enhanced by the sparkling illustrations of cartoonist Charlie Dunn. In addition and where possible, each author of the various entries has their dates added and a few relevant (and sometimes irrelevant) notes on their lives. From John Arlott to Boris Yeltsin (there is a useful index), from the trivial to the profound, from razor sharp criticism to poignant tributes, this is a book for all occasions. Each anecdote, musing, poem or prayer showcases humanity's variety. Whether to mine for speeches, to raise a smile in low moments, to inform or to entertain,  Another Ragbag of Riches  will provoke and delight. It is perfect for the bedside, for travel, for browsing and for present giving.

  Deep beneath the Empire State University library, a frustrated student finds the lost legacy of ESU's most infamous alumnus. Victor Von Doom's lab notebooks—instructions for how to build a machine that can pierce the veil between Earth and the netherworld—have fallen into the wrong hands. A gate is opened where none should exist, and someone—or something—has invaded our world.The Fantastic Four would be the team to face such a threat...if they could reach one another. Force shields erected around Manhattan by the over-anxious agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. have trapped Reed Richards, Sue Richards, Ben Grimm, and Johnny Storm. All are in danger of succumbing to the pernicious effects of the energies emanating from the dark dimension, forcing the F.F. to seek aid from their greatest enemy, whose nefariously brilliant mind first conceived the Doomgate.

  “Hilarious . . . If you’ve ever woken up with a cat staring right at you, or been joined on bathroom breaks by your feline friend, then you’ll understand.” —Awesome Inventions 
   
  From the creative duo behind the bestselling Me Without You and Happiness Is . . . comes How to Be a Cat, a lighthearted illustrated guide to living life as a feline. Distinctive artwork and quirky captions confirm what we already know: cats actually rule the household. Ranging from simple truisms (“Look cute enough to attract cuddles”) to perceptive observations (“Consider life a never-ending belly rub”), this charming book is a must-have gift for anyone who shares their life with a feline friend (or vice versa). 
   
  “It lists many of the intricate behaviors that distinguish a real cat from what I assume are cheap cat knock-offs (like ‘kat’ or ‘cot’). Do you lick your humans at 3am? Do you ask for attention, then wriggle away once they pick you up? Then you’re well on the way of being a real, certified cat.” —deMilked 
   
  “An easy to follow ‘how to guide’ available for anyone dreaming of being a kitty cat instead of a real-world adult, or kid.” —Earth Porm
