  Rin Yamada, a struggling writer, wakes up to find himself trapped inside his own failed novel—The Emperor’s False Consort. But instead of arriving as the protagonist, he’s been reincarnated as Prince Kael Varenth, the story’s doomed anti-hero who is sentenced to death for treason.
  In his own writing, Kael dies at the hands of Emperor Aldric Varenth, his former lover, now turned ruthless ruler. But faced with execution, Rin refuses to accept his fate. Using his knowledge of the plot, he fights to change his destiny and uncover the true traitor behind the empire’s downfall—Duke Reynard Hale.
  However, rewriting fate won’t be easy. The court is a nest of vipers, Aldric is colder and more dangerous than Rin imagined, and his own survival may depend on rekindling the emperor’s lost love—without losing himself in the process.
  As enemies close in and betrayal lurks in every corner, Rin must play the most dangerous game of all:
  Win the emperor’s trust—or die trying.

  Jacques Lacan is now regarded as a major psychoanalytical theorist alongside Freud and Jung, although recognition has been delayed by fierce arguments over his ideas. Written by a leading Lacanian analyst, "Introducing Lacan" guides the reader through his innovations, including his work on paranoia, his addition of structural linguistics to Freudianism and his ideas on the infant 'mirror phase'. It also traces Lacan's influence in postmodern critical thinking on art, literature, philosophy and feminism. This is the ideal introduction for anyone intrigued by Lacan's ideas but discouraged by the complexity of his writings.

  Monarca - A Novel

  “A work of art. In each of the pages, you will feel the flow of a powerful energy which will murmur to each of your cells that it is time to come out of hiding, to open the windows, to breathe freely, to dress colorfully… to fly.”—Laura Esquivel, author of Like Water for Chocolate 
  A fable for all ages about a Mexican-American girl who transforms into a monarch butterfly and undertakes the great migration to Mexico, Monarca braids together the values of heritage, ecology, and personal transformation. 
  On her thirteenth birthday, Inés receives a mysterious necklace from her abuela in Mexico that turns her into a monarch butterfly—the fulfilment of a prophecy linking Inés’ destiny to her family’s legacy and the butterflies’ survival. 
  The adventure continues as Inés joins the monarchs on their long journey south to the butterfly sanctuary in Mexico—an odyssey that has become increasingly perilous due to human activity. Together, the swarm travels from the northeast to the swamps of Louisiana to the pine-filled mountain tops of the western Sierra Madre, finally alighting at the Sierra Chincua sanctuary. On this wondrous journey in the vein of Jonathan Livingston Seagull and The Little Prince, Inés discovers the connections between all living beings, and the urgent need to protect the monarchs' migration and habitats.  
  Divided into four chapters to mirror the four stages in a monarch’s life—egg, larva, pupa and butterfly—Monarca blends Mexican folklore, environmentalism, and magical realism in an enchanting novella. This book will inspire readers to protect and cherish the sacred natural world around them.
