For 20 years Paul Clements has been tapping into the Burren's hidden crevices, drawn to its history, mystery and peculiarities. He writes absorbingly about the rocks, hills and walls, and the range of colours, the animals he rubs shoulders with, and about subjects which excite him, such as the exotic wild flowers, ancient ruins, early morning birdsong, and the smell of whiskey in historic pubs. A hunter and gatherer of information and lore on the Burren, the author ferrets out little-known facts and weaves them together to create these carefully distilled essays.

Multiple award–winning author R. Garland Grey brings you the charming, magical Faery Faith Series. Predestined Bryna is an orphan slave in the fortress of a Roman invader, her only friend an ancient, blind Druidess, Derina, who tells her she must rescue the prisoner in the dungeon. Tynan lies naked, chained to a cold, stone slab, tortured by the Sorcerer, evil ally of the Roman lord, who seeks to discover if he might be the Dark Chieftain, the fulfiller of prophecy. Deeper in the dungeon, trapped by magical enchantment, are the faeries who await their liberator. The Dark Chieftain awaits a destiny of his own—mating with the territorial goddess, a union that will set the land and many lives aright. First he must gain his freedom and find her. Fey Born Lana is a frail farm girl magically fated to be a fey host for the sword spirit Valor. When the magical sword is stolen from the vaults of Tara, the faery home, Keegan, a fearless fey guardian of the waters, must find it for his king. Keegan never expects to meet his match in the small, spirited beauty he needs to guide him to the sword. Lana must find the strength to face her mysterious fate and claim a guardian’s heart. White Fells Boyden, a warrior of the Tuatha De Danann, is one of the few born of the idir, the between. With the power to summon the bringer of death in the form of a fey wind, he could kill an invader seeking vengeance for a wrongful death—and all living creatures—but he vows to find another way. Princess Scota, a confident warrior princess, does not believe in anything fey until she meets her people’s latest captive, Boyden, a proud male whose defiant nature she cannot tame. In a twist of fate, she becomes captive instead of captor. In a land covered in blood, the two battle for a truce between their warring people.

Notes from a soldier on the ground is a poetry book by Wagner Hertzog that deals with what all human beings are: soldiers in the battle field of life.

We Are Everywhere is a whirlwind collection of writings, images and ideas for direct action by people on the frontlines of the global anticapitalist movement. This is a movement of untold stories, because those from below are not those who get to write history, even though we are the ones making it. We Are Everywhere wrenches our history from the grasp of the powerful and returns it to the streets, fields and neighbourhoods where it was made.
