  When Fear Is Not Afraid - The...

  Reality is breaking, verse is to blame, and Oscar Teabag-Dooven is absolutely the wrong cat to fix it.  
  Oscar never meant to get tangled in a plot involving forbidden vaults, exploding cafés and an ex-poet turned reality-warping megalomaniac. But here he is, paws-deep in syllables and sabotage, trying to stop a transformation that could obliterate everything.  
  Joined by Tabby Miss Cakes, an insane librarian who punches everyone in the face, they become the most unlikely duo to save reality. As powerful poets conspire to re-scribe the world itself, they’re the only hope against a conspiracy that threatens to plunge civilization into an Armageddon that makes Bedlam of the second Dooven book look like a good way to cook eggs.  
  Hilariously deadpan, wildly inventive and threaded with unexpected poignancy, When Fear Is Not Afraid launches the Velvet Paw of Asquith’s Morigan Tetralogy with flair, fire and masses of confusion.  
  Welcome back to the New Fable fiction genre, where fluffy just got even dangerouser.  
  “Finally, a reason to remain illiterate. Much like the author, I suspect.” - Damian Smith-Meyers, Accountant, Billiot Financial. 
  “What’s the difference between Corfield and Byron? Pretty much everything.” - Simon Davidson, Byronian Scholar. 
  “Corfield is a dreamer of everything and a master of nothing.” - Phillip P. Burgess, Professor of Anatomy, UAMS.

  Trip to Russia

  Stefan Zweig

  "What journey within our immediate world today would be remotely as interesting, enchanting, instructive and exciting as that to Russia? While our Europe, and especially the capitals, are subject to the inexorably contemporary process of mutual assimilation and resemblance, Russia remains utterly unparalleled." Stephen Zweig, 1928. After Stefan Zweig's bourgeois world collapsed with the First World War, he went searching for alternative forms of society, which culminated in a journey through the at that time still young Soviet Union. His perceptions and impressions during the trip remained ambivalent and moved between the generally prevailing glorification of the USSR by parts of the Western European intelligentsia and the harsh reality of life among the population. Stefan Zweig's non-political trip to the USSR is probably one of the most extraordinary travelogues of the 1920s and appears today almost 90 years later as a kaleidoscope into a past that is once again up-to-date.

  THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 
  ‘Hilarious, and straight talking but also articulate and insightful – I am just hugely fond of this guy’  
  –Eddie Jones 
  ‘James Haskell: what a flanker, what a book’ 
  –Rugby World 
  ‘I’d like to be remembered as a player who showed that you can be incredibly professional but also a lot of fun – a bit of a joker in the changing room, but the ultimate competitor on the pitch. That should have been the subtitle of this book, really…’ 
  One of rugby’s most ferocious flankers and biggest characters, James Haskell has had an extraordinary, global experience of the game, having played for the Wasps, Northampton and England, and in New Zealand, France and Japan. After seventeen years and with 77 international caps under his sizeable belt, he has a shitload to say about rugby life – from pitch to pub and everywhere in between. 
    
  In What A Flanker, Haskell sheds fresh light on the dynamics and the day-to-day of the game. Whether he’s recalling the most brutal team socials; dispelling the myths surrounding New Zealand’s dominance; introducing his Japanese teammates to manscaping or calling out play-acting in the modern game, no subject is off limits. 
    
  Side-splittingly funny and ruthlessly honest, What A Flanker delves into the touring, drinking, training, eating and sometimes unconscionable antics of the professional rugby player. It’s an unforgettable read, even if there are some stories you’d rather forget… 
  [Correction: in the author biography and on p.22 of this book, it is stated in error that the House of Rugby podcast is now known as The Good, The Bad and The Rugby. The House of Rugby podcast continues and The Good, The Bad and The Rugby is a separate podcast.] 
  Haskell's autobiography, What A Flanker, is a humorous and insightful look into the world of professional rugby. His personal growth, dedication to fitness, and success as a Sunday Times bestselling author make this a compelling read for sports enthusiasts and fans of autobiographies alike. 
  For fans of Rachel Murphy (Loose Head), Robert Jobson (Guarding Diana), Luke Upton (Hard Men of Rugby), Peter Crouch (How to Be an Ex-Footballer), and Jonny Wilkinson (Jonny).
