  Bond—James Bond. In the 80s and 90s, the debonair superspy's games failed to live up to the giddy thrills of his films. That all changed when British studio Rare unleashed GoldenEye 007 in 1997. In basements and college dorms across the world, friends bumped shoulders while shooting, knifing, exploding, and slapping each other's digital faces in the Nintendo 64 game that would redefine the modern first-person shooter genre and become the most badass party game of its generation. 
   
   
    
  But GoldenEye's success was far from a sure thing. For years of development, GoldenEye's team of rookie developers were shooting in the dark with no sense of what the N64 or its controller would be like, and the game's relentless violence horrified higher-ups at squeaky clean Nintendo. As development lagged far behind the debut of the tie-in film GoldenEye, the game nearly came out an entire Bond movie too late. 
   
   
    
  Through extensive interviews with GoldenEye's creators, writer and scholar Alyse Knorr traces the story of how this unlikely licensed game reinvigorated a franchise and a genre. Learn all the stories behind how this iconic title was developed, and why GoldenEye 007 has continued to kick the living daylights out of every other Bond game since.

  Sarah Robinson has been writing about witches for nearly a decade. But can the witches cast a spell to re-enchant her within the landscapes she calls home? In Witch Country, Sarah ventures over (and under) Britain's storied landscapes, with their rich witch heritage as her guide—from witch marks to hanging trees. Join her as she's led astray by witch hares and colt pixies and is inspired by sorceresses, wishing trees, and crystal caves. Meet whispering knights, sister trees, and ancient mother stones; discover modern-day witches and those whose lives were brutally ended during the witch hunts in this spellbinding exploration of fascinating folklore, harrowing history, haunting superstitions, and the magical places where they all collide. Journey with Sarah through the wheel of the year as she sets out on a monthly journey to discover places and voices across the British Isles, from Glastonbury to Lancaster, the New Forest to Edinburgh, that have been shaped by witch lore. She explores the landscapes where well-known witches from myth and history lived, including Sybil Leek, Gerald Gardner, Lilias Adie, Morgan le Fay, the Witch of Wookey Hole, the Pendle Witches, and many more. Unearthing the stories and spirits of place rooted in the land, you will discover that wherever you may roam, a little magic is never far away . . .
