Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anaptra dreamt. Not the kind of dreams you would expect a fourteen-year-old girl would have, even one that had seen the end of the world. No, Anaptras dreams were more like visions, almost memories. She saw a small boy surviving alone in the desolate streets of Hong Kong, forced to run with pack-dogs, the dominant species in the area. Now all the humans were gone. She saw another boy, around her own age, who lived in an ancient volcano on a hidden island and whose best friends were creatures she knew only existed in fairytales and fantasy games. These boys were like her, special, gifted. They were the future. She had wandered Africa for the seven years since the war. Her father was the only other human she knew, and her best friend was a juvenile cheetah, but that was all about to change. Today she would meet Ivan, the leader of the resistance and the person who would bring her dreams crashing into her reality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Mother Jones' Best Book of the Year "A beautiful ode to the act of swimming outdoors. . . . Deakin’s insistence on wild swimming for all is really an insistence on a better ecosystem for all." —The Atlantic A masterpiece of nature writing, Roger Deakin’s Waterlog is a fascinating and inspiring journey into the aquatic world that surrounds us. In an attempt to discover his island nation from a new perspective, Roger Deakin embarks from his home in Suffolk to swim Britain—the seas, rivers, lakes, ponds, pools, streams, lochs, moats, and quarries. Through the watery capillary network that braids itself throughout the country, Deakin immerses himself in the natural habitats of fish, amphibians, mammals, and birds. And as he navigates towns, private property, and sometimes dangerous waters and inclement weather, Deakin finds himself in precarious situations: he’s detained by bailiffs in Winchester, intercepted by the coast guard at the mouth of a river, and mistaken for a dead body on a beach. The result of this surprising journey is a deep dive into modern Britain, especially its wild places. With enchanting descriptions of natural landscapes, and a deep well of humanity, boundless humor, and unbridled joy, Deakin beckons us to wilder waters and inspires us to connect to the larger world in a most unexpected way. Thrilling, vivid, and lyrical, Waterlog is a fully immersive adventure—a remarkable personal quest, a bold assertion of the swimmer’s right to roam, and an unforgettable celebration of the magic of water.
