  Speaking Volumes Christian Book of the Year 2016 
  In 1992, Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow was enjoying a pint with his brother when he got an idea that would change his life – and radically change the lives of others. 
  After watching a news bulletin about war-torn Bosnia, the two brothers agreed to take a week’s hiatus from work to help. 
  What neither of them expected is that what began as a one-time road trip in a beaten-up Landrover rapidly grew to become Magnus’s life’s work – leading him to leave his job, sell his house and direct all his efforts to feeding thousands of the world’s poorest children. 
  Magnus retells how a series of miraculous circumstances and an overwhelming display of love from those around him led to the creation of Mary’s Meals; an organisation that could hold the key to eradicating child hunger altogether. This humble, heart-warming yet powerful story has never been more relevant in our society of plenty and privilege. It will open your eyes to the extraordinary impact that one person can make. 
  Previously published as The Shed That Fed a Million Children 
  Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow's autobiography is not just a personal memoir, but a testament to the power of charity and philanthropy. His journey from a simple idea in a pub to the creation of a top social initiative that feeds millions, is a story that resonates with the best of humanity. 
  For fans of Bear Grylls (Soul Fuel), Amy Liptrot (The Instant), Sean Bloomfield (My Heart Will Triumph), Donna Leon (Backstage), and Elizabeth Sherrill (The Happiest People on Earth).

  Have you ever wondered what truly happens when life ends… or if it really ends at all? 
   
  Heaven’s Testimonies: Near-Death Experiences invites you into a world that sits just beyond the edge of human understanding, where life, death, and something more seem to meet. 
   
  Through a carefully woven blend of ancient wisdom, modern research, and deeply moving personal accounts, this book explores one of humanity’s oldest and most profound questions: What lies beyond the veil of death? 
   
  Inside these pages, you’ll discover how beliefs about the afterlife have shaped cultures across time—from early civilizations to spiritual traditions that continue to influence us today. Alongside this historical lens are powerful firsthand testimonies from individuals who have crossed the threshold of death and returned, bringing back messages that speak of peace, presence, and something greater than themselves. 
   
  Balanced with thoughtful scientific perspectives on consciousness and the human experience, these stories invite you to reflect rather than persuade, to consider rather than conclude. 
   
  You’ll explore: 
  • The afterlife through ancient cultures, religious texts, and enduring spiritual traditions 
  • Real-life near-death experiences shared by those who have returned 
  • Scientific and psychological insights into consciousness and the nature of existence 
  • The deeper connections between belief, experience, and what it means to be human 
   
  This is not a book that tells you what to believe. 
  It is a book that gently opens the door… and invites you to look beyond it. 
   
  If you’ve ever felt curious about life after death, or quietly wondered what might exist beyond this world, this journey will stay with you long after the final page.

  The Will to Conquer: Mastering Power, Strategy, and the Art of War is a manifesto for those who refuse to be ruled. Power is not a privilege granted by fate—it is seized by those with the vision, discipline, and ruthlessness to take it. 
  In this book, A.A. Castor dismantles the myths of fairness, morality, and justice, exposing them for what they truly are: illusions designed to keep the weak in submission. Drawing from the principles of history's greatest strategists—Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, Nietzsche, and beyond—The Will to Conquer explores the foundations of dominance, manipulation, and control. 
  This book reveals: 
  ✔ The Laws of Power – How rulers impose their will and eliminate opposition. 
  ✔ The Art of Strategy – Why battles are won before they are fought. 
  ✔ The Psychology of a Ruler – How to think beyond morality and hesitation. 
  ✔ The Mastery of Deception – Why perception is more powerful than reality. 
  ✔ The Will to Power – How to overcome fear, doubt, and self-imposed limitations. 
  Power does not wait for the patient, nor does it reward those who seek validation. It belongs to those who demand it. If you are ready to break free from the illusions of the weak and forge your own destiny, this book will show you the way. 
  "There is no universal law—only the law of those strong enough to impose it."

  The Authentic Life of Billy the...

  Of all firsthand accounts of lawlessness in the old Southwest, none is more fascinating than Pat F. Garrett's The Authentic Life of Billy, the Kid. It was first published in 1882, a year after Sheriff Garrett killed the Kid, "the bravest and most feared" gunman of the cattle war in Lincoln County, New Mexico. This book is at once the most authoritative biography of William H. Bonney and the foundation of the Billy the Kid legend.  
  Reputed to have killed his first man at the age of twelve, William Bonney went on to gun his way into Western legend as Billy the Kid. When he was killed at the age of twenty-one, the Kid was famous throughout the country as the boy who, so he boasted, had killed a man for every year of his life.  
  This is the story of William Bonney as told by the lawman who ended his notorious career. While explaining the public sympathy that people often accorded Bonney, Garrett challenges the glorified legends of the Kid with the genuine story of a reckless cowhand who became a hired gun. Combining the best elements of eyewitness history with the dramatic flair of a Western novel, this is the clearest account available of the career of a man some thought of as a murdering fiend and others as an American Robin Hood.
