Book excerpt: Winner of the 2017 Andre Norton Award for Outstanding Young Adult Science Fiction or Fantasy Book! “Funny, haunting, beautiful, relentless, and powerful, The Art of Starving is a classic in the making.”—Book Riot Matt hasn’t eaten in days. His stomach stabs and twists inside, pleading for a meal, but Matt won’t give in. The hunger clears his mind, keeps him sharp—and he needs to be as sharp as possible if he’s going to find out just how Tariq and his band of high school bullies drove his sister, Maya, away. Matt’s hardworking mom keeps the kitchen crammed with food, but Matt can resist the siren call of casseroles and cookies because he has discovered something: the less he eats the more he seems to have . . . powers. The ability to see things he shouldn’t be able to see. The knack of tuning in to thoughts right out of people’s heads. Maybe even the authority to bend time and space. So what is lunch, really, compared to the secrets of the universe? Matt decides to infiltrate Tariq’s life, then use his powers to uncover what happened to Maya. All he needs to do is keep the hunger and longing at bay. No problem. But Matt doesn’t realize there are many kinds of hunger…and he isn’t in control of all of them. A darkly funny, moving story of body image, addiction, friendship, and love, Sam J. Miller’s debut novel will resonate with any reader who’s ever craved the power that comes with self-acceptance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Goddess Test meets Dexter in an edgy, compelling debut about one teen’s quest for revenge…no matter how far it takes her. Amelie Ainsworth is not alone in her head. Bound to a deal of desperation made when she was a child, Amelie’s mind houses the Furies—the hawk and the serpent—lingering always, waiting for her to satisfy their bloodlust. After escaping the asylum where she was trapped for years, Amelie knows how to keep the Furies quiet. By day, she lives a normal life, but by night, she tracks down targets the Furies send her way. And she brings down Justice upon them. Amelie’s perfected her system of survival, but when she meets a mysterious boy named Niko at her new school, she can’t figure out how she feels about him. For the first time, the Furies are quiet in her head around a guy. But does this mean that Amelie’s finally found someone who she can trust, or are there greater factors at work? As Amelie’s mind becomes a battlefield, with the Furies fighting for control, Amelie will have to decide which is worse: denying the only man she might ever love, or subjecting him to the fate the Furies want for him?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller A GOOD MORNING AMERICA Book Club Pick "Adeyemi has sparked magic once again." —The New York Times After battling the impossible, Zélie and Amari have finally succeeded in bringing magic back to the land of Orïsha. But the ritual was more powerful than they could’ve imagined, reigniting the powers of not only the maji, but of nobles with magic ancestry, too. Now, Zélie struggles to unite the maji in an Orïsha where the enemy is just as powerful as they are. But when the monarchy and military unite to keep control of Orïsha, Zélie must fight to secure Amari's right to the throne and protect the new maji from the monarchy's wrath. With civil war looming on the horizon, Zélie finds herself at a breaking point: she must discover a way to bring the kingdom together or watch as Orïsha tears itself apart. Children of Virtue and Vengeance is the stunning sequel to Tomi Adeyemi's New York Times-bestselling debut Children of Blood and Bone, the first book in the Legacy of Orïsha trilogy. Praise for Children of Virtue and Vengeance: “Electrifying . . . With this second book Adeyemi brings a new maturity and depth to the series. Her characters are no longer underdogs on a hero’s journey to return magic―now they are leaders who are suffering from the consequences and trauma of their previous quest.” ―The New York Times “Like its predecessor, Children of Virtue and Vengeance is fast-paced and unafraid to ask tough questions about the cyclical nature of oppression and the systems that enforce it.” ―TIME “Relentless even beyond its finish, this is a sure-fire hit.” ―Booklist, starred review - The Complete Legacy of Orïsha Series: Children of Blood and Bone (Book 1) Children of Virtue and Vengeance (Book 2) Children of Anguish and Anarchy (Book 3)

Book excerpt: It's December 1997 and a man-eating tiger is on the prowl outside a remote village in Russia's Far East. The tiger isn't just killing people, it's annihilating them, and a team of men and their dogs must hunt it on foot through the forest in the brutal cold. To their horrified astonishment it emerges that the attacks are not random: the tiger is engaged in a vendetta. Injured and starving, it must be found before it strikes again, and the story becomes a battle for survival between the two main characters: Yuri Trush, the lead tracker, and the tiger itself. As John Vaillant vividly recreates the extraordinary events of that winter, he also gives us an unforgettable portrait of a spectacularly beautiful region where plants and animals exist that are found nowhere else on earth, and where the once great Siberian Tiger - the largest of its species, which can weigh over 600 lbs at more than 10 feet long - ranges daily over vast territories of forest and mountain, its numbers diminished to a fraction of what they once were. We meet the native tribes who for centuries have worshipped and lived alongside tigers - even sharing their kills with them - in a natural balance. We witness the first arrival of settlers, soldiers and hunters in the tiger's territory in the 19th century and 20th century, many fleeing Stalinism. And we come to know the Russians of today - such as the poacher Vladimir Markov - who, crushed by poverty, have turned to poaching for the corrupt, high-paying Chinese markets. Throughout we encounter surprising theories of how humans and tigers may have evolved to coexist, how we may have developed as scavengers rather than hunters and how early Homo sapiens may have once fit seamlessly into the tiger's ecosystem. Above all, we come to understand the endangered Siberian tiger, a highly intelligent super-predator, and the grave threat it faces as logging and poaching reduce its habitat and numbers - and force it to turn at bay. Beautifully written and deeply informative, The Tiger is a gripping tale of man and nature in collision, that leads inexorably to a final showdown in a clearing deep in the Siberian forest.

Book excerpt: "Absorbing...unwavering momentum." - Kirkus ReviewsDublin, 2019: Michael Gleeson is a well-respected psychiatrist - a quiet man, a good friend, and a useless cook. He also spends part of his professional life secretly counseling former members of the disbanded IRA. Michael always thought this would be enough to satisfy his Republican heritage, but when the highly skilled yet deeply disturbed Turlough O'Sullivan enters his office, Michael sees an opportunity that he just can't overlook. Haunted by childhood tales of the gruesome history of the Irish people under British rule, Michael persuades his new patient to help him track down and kill the living descendants of the worst men in Ireland's past, figures whose names still send a shiver down the spine. But Michael's plan for a twisted and bloody revenge doesn't run smoothly - not only must he confront the truth about the role models who formed him as a child, but on his trail is a young detective at Scotland Yard, an officer obsessed with stopping the unknown serial killer who is out for an historical revenge that she can't understand. "Psychology and history combine to create a riveting and engrossing read." - Readers' Favorite Review, 5 stars"An absorbing tale brimming with politics, historical details, and mystery. This whodunit has a discernible, enthralling narrative arc that reaches a gratifying resolution before the end." - Kirkus Reviews"A murder mystery like no other, with not only historical motives but an engaging plot that in places put me in mind of Red Dragon." - Readers' Favorite Review, 5 stars"A complex, suspenseful plot with tension so thick that it felt palpable. Rich with historical details relevant to the time period. Wonderful characters with depth and substance. I was immediately drawn in and held captive from beginning to end." - Goodreads Review Extract from STARVING MEN: True to species, Turlough took his time. His eyes moved over the room, seeing what his new shrink liked to collect or show to his clients. Obsolete medical books that would fall out of their jackets if touched. Certificates of education, sterile signs of passing a test. Nothing about making it through the student-drink-driving days and falling into the lecture room just in time for an exam. Three carved wooden monkey faces, the size of children's faces, hanging down in a straight line on the wall."Where are they from?" he asked."Africa.""Are they lucky?""They are. How did you know that?""Did you get them yourself?""No," I said, smiling, "they were a present from a friend, after they'd traveled down there.""Down there? Down where?""Oh dear, I can't remember.""Africa's a big place. It's not really a 'down there' place.""Have you lived in Africa?" I asked."Where have you been?" "Em, Spain, on holidays. London, of course.""That's it?""Mostly. Where else would I go?""The world's a big place.""So why are you so determined to get back into Ireland?"Turlough let out a little smile, a slip that vanished as soon as it came. Then the usual clouds assaulted his face and he shook his head, angry at himself, and looked at me as if he would have handed me his soul to save him. "Doctor Gleeson," he said. "I think I'm going mad."

Book excerpt: We see famine and look for the likely causes: poor food distribution, unstable regimes, caprices of weather. A technical problem, we tell ourselves, one that modern social and natural science will someday resolve. To the contrary, Jenny Edkins responds in this book: Famine in the contemporary world is not the antithesis of modernity but its symptom. A critical investigation of hunger, famine, and aid practices in international politics, Whose Hunger? shows how the forms and ideas of modernity frame our understanding of famine and, consequently, shape our responses.

For the reader who has not read book 1, Death Is Not the Final Chapter, or book 2, Head of the Snake, Rehder wrote his third novel so a new reader can pick it up and quickly get engrossed in the storyline. Jason Orr's life has taken him all over the globe. Vengeance Is Mine is no different. This novel finds Orr in Ukraine and Russia. When he is away from the US, his nemesis Joseph Lehan pursues a vindictive mission against the last of Orr's family. Friends in the States are willing to intercede. Will their intercession be enough? For Orr, what started out to be a quiet visit with a longtime friend, Ukrainian Eleana Vovk, quickly turns into a desperate search. The search leads them into the dark world of the Russian Mafia, the Solntsevskaya Bravta. Orr willingly takes a back seat to Eleana, who is on her home turf. He has faith in her and her background as an ex-agent with the SBU (Ukrainian Secret Police). During their hunt, they are connected with several unknown operatives that they will have to depend on for their very survival. Then there are those they come against that would do anything to stay in power, even if it means taking Jason's and Eleana's lives. Will their search succeed, will they die during their effort, or will the events that unfold in the end shock them to their very core?
