  Janny Wurts’s epic tale of two half-brothers cursed to life-long enmity reaches new heights in the third volume, now re-released with a striking new cover. 
  Tricked once more by his wily half-brother, Lysaer, Lord of Light, arrives at the tiny harbour town of Merior to find that Arithon’s ship yards have been abandoned and meticulously destroyed, and that the Master of Shadow has disappeared as if into thin air. 
  Meanwhile Arithon and the Mad Prophet Dakar are travelling on foot through the treacherous Kelhorn Mountains towards the Vastmark clans, there to raise further support for his cause. But raising a warhost is a costly business. Is it mere coincidence that Princess Talith – Lysaer’s beautiful, headstrong wife – is taken captive and held for a vast ransom by a master brigand? 
  The forces of light and shadow circle and feint, drawing ever closer to a huge conflict. And in the background the Fellowship of Seven Sorcerers and the Koriani Enchantresses watch and plan, and wait…

  Join Sam Keene on a heartfelt journey of self-discovery in this compelling story. From the ashes of the Vietnam War, Sam's life takes an unexpected turn when she's adopted by an American soldier and his wife, who whisk her away to the bustling streets of Brooklyn. Yet, even amidst the vibrant tapestry of New York City, Sam grapples with a lingering question: Who is she really? 
  After college, Sam's quest for identity leads her to the enchanting city of Paris, where she immerses herself in the struggles of others to evade confronting her own. As a photojournalist, she spends two decades capturing the darkest moments of twenty-first-century humanity. But when she loses her adoptive mother, the pangs of loneliness drive her back to Cambodia, her birthplace. 
  In the heart of Cambodia, Sam embarks on a soul-searching journey, unearthing layers of her identity hidden beneath the smiles and silences of her homeland. Guided by a mysterious companion, Sam ventures into the forgotten ruins of Banteay Chhmar—a thirteenth-century temple and city that holds the key to her ancestral history. 
  Amidst the lush jungles and silt-laden waters of Asia, Sam discovers that her roots run deeper than she ever imagined. Each revelation unravels a tapestry of love, sorrow, faith, and truth, woven into a family tree stretching back to the golden age of the Khmer Empire. In The White Empress, Sam Keene's extraordinary journey will resonate with readers who appreciate stories of personal growth, family ties, and the enduring strength of the human spirit.

  Six has always been a number we group things around – Six of the best, six of one half a dozen of another, six feet under, six pack, six degrees of separation and a sixth sense are but a few of the ways we use this number. 
   
  Such is its popularity that we thought it is also a very good way of challenging and investigating an author’s work to give width, brevity, humour and depth across six of their very best. 
   
  In this series we gather together authors whose short stories both rivet the attention and inspire the imagination to visit their gems in a series of six, to roam across an author’s legacy in a few short hours and gain a greater understanding of their writing and, of course, to be lavishly entertained by their ideas, their narrative and their way with words. 
   
  These stories can be surprising and sometimes at a tangent to what we expected, but each is fully formed and a marvellous adventure into the world and words of a literary master.

  "Mods and Rockers - A Love Story" follows David Stevens, leader of The Ace Faces mod gang, and Sharon Mitchell, sister of a Thunder Boys rocker, whose forbidden romance begins during the infamous Brighton riots of May 1964. When their eyes meet across the battlefield of tribal warfare, both recognize something deeper than the hatred that divides their worlds. 
  David, a sharp-dressed nineteen-year-old from Hackney, leads his scooter-riding gang with intelligence and style. Sharon, seventeen and fiercely independent, feels trapped by the violent rocker culture that defines her brother Tommy's world. Despite the danger, they begin meeting secretly at The Blue Note jazz club in Soho, discovering shared dreams and questioning the meaningless tribal conflicts that govern their lives. 
  Their clandestine romance blossoms over Wednesday evening conversations about books, music, and hopes for a different future. But when Tommy discovers Sharon's betrayal, he issues an ultimatum: choose family loyalty or love. The revelation triggers a vicious gang war between The Ace Faces and The Thunder Boys, with both David and Sharon caught in the crossfire. 
  Facing escalating violence and rejection from their tribes, the young lovers make a desperate choice: they elope to Manchester, abandoning everything they've known for an uncertain future together. Living in poverty, they struggle to build a new life while Sharon discovers she's pregnant. Their son James is born in February 1965, cementing their commitment to each other and their new identity as the Stevens family. 
  As the cultural landscape shifts toward the psychedelic movement of the mid-1960s, David recognizes a business opportunity. Using Sharon's sewing skills and his understanding of youth culture, they create "Cosmic Threads," a company producing psychedelic clothing that captures the spirit of the emerging flower power movement. 
  By 1967's Summer of Love, their business has become hugely successful, boutiques across Britain
