Vaults of Terra : The Carrion Throne by Chris Wraight Warhammer 40K Sci Fi Paperback
Only 1 left in stockInquisitor Erasmus Crowl and his acolyte Spinoza follow the trail of a shadowy conspiracy on Holy Terra itself, the capital world of the Imperium.
In the hellish sprawl of Imperial Terra, Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor Erasmus Crowl serves as a stalwart and vigilant protector, for even the Throneworld is not immune to the predations of its enemies. In the course of his Emperor-sworn duty, Crowl becomes embroiled in a dark conspiracy, one that leads all the way to the halls of the Imperial Palace. As he plunges deeper into the shadowy underbelly of the many palace districts, his investigation attracts the attention of hidden forces, and soon he and his acolyte Spinoza are being hunted – by heretics, xenos, servants of the Dark Powers, or perhaps even rival elements of the Inquisition itself. Soon they discover a terrible truth, one that if allowed to get out could undermine the very fabric of the Imperium itself. -
The Man Who Lived in Sorcy Wood by Brendan McNamee - Paperback RARE Book
Only 1 left in stockIn a town of speaking statues and amusement arcades, a town with a conscious hunger for material success and an unconscious thirst for miracles, one morning a man leaves his good job and house and goes to live in the nearby Sorcy Wood. There he might have remained for years, an object of bafflement and ridicule to his former neighbours, had his presence not obstructed the plans of the town's two most powerful men and deadliest enemies, the priest and the local businessman. After years of bitter resignation to his lowly position in the church, the priest discovers that God has given him a mission, to fell Sorcy Wood and erect an airport to bring pilgrims to that isolated shrine from all over the world. After years of building up his empire of gambling and snooker emporiums, the businessman discovers a way to truly immortalise his own name, to fell Sorcy Wood and erect the largest holiday camp ever imagined to bring tourists from all over the world. All that stand in the way of their schemes, apart from each other, is the lone figure of the man who refuses to leave Sorcy Wood.
Brendan McNamee was born in County Donegal in 1955 and now lives in London. His first book, The Man Who Lived in Sorcy Wood, is a remarkable adult fable exploring the psyche of modern rural Ireland, and must rank as among the most original and striking debuts in recent Irish fiction.

The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas by Gertrude Stein - Paperback VINTAGE 1961
Only 1 left in stockThe Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas was written in 1933 by Gertrude Stein in the guise of an autobiography authored by Alice B. Toklas, who was her lover.

After the war Gertrude has an argument with T. S. Eliot after he finds one of her writings inappropriate. They become friends with Sherwood Anderson and Ernest Hemingway. It was written to make money and was indeed a commercial success. However, it attracted criticism, especially from those who appeared in the book and didn't like the way they were depicted.

The Cultural Revolution in China by Joan Robinson - Paperback VINTAGE 1972
Only 1 left in stockDuring the Cultural Revolution most western journalists saw China lurching to self-destruction in an orgy of random violence, mad adulation, inexplicable jargon and meticulous, meaningless ritual. How, they asked, could the Red Guards believe their own wall posters? What was the meaning of a 'party person in authority taking the capitalist road'? And how could the Thoughts fo Mao make crops grow on a stony hill?
In this documentary investigation, which she has now updated with an extended postscript, the author calls upon the Chinese themselves to explain their revolution. Joan Robinson, Professor of Economics at Cambridge and author of the Pelican Economic Philosophy, visited China in late 1967. From conversations, reported here, and from the key documents, which had not previously been published in the West, she focuses attention on the phenomenon most puzzling to those outside China--a ruler so hostile to his own administration that he incited and led a nation-wide popular revolution against it.

Endless Universe by Marion Zimmer Bradley - Paperback VINTAGE 1979
Only 1 left in stockPlanets are for leaving
That's an old saying in the Explorers. But for every Explorer there is somewhere a planet he will not leave. For some, the cause is love. For others, the desire to give up the strange roving life of the star wanderers who live outside of planet-time. Even for the ones who love the metal ships that are their only home there is still a planet waiting, a planet that will hold them forever--in the final clasp of death. But until then, life is adventure and wonders undreamed of by mere planet dwellers, an Endless Universe of the unknown.
This edition contains over 30,000 words of material never before published in any form. The original text has been revised in detail.

Wargaming in History The American Civil War by Paul Stevenson - Paperback
Only 1 left in stockBrother against brother, family against family, in a long, drawn out, numbing, never-ending surge of battlefield drama - this was the American Civil War. At Gettysburg, "the enemy came on yelling and running with the fixed bayonet charge which few troops can withstand; but the patriots did not waver . . . it was a melee, a carnival of death."
Now many carnivals of death spring to life in one of wargaming's greatest actions. Here is everything the wargamer could possibly want: meticulous descriptions of Confederate and Union uniforms, artillery, cavalry units, rifles, and colorful battle flags, plus authentic terrain maps, combat photographs, rundowns on the strategies and tactics of such crucial battles as Vicksburg, Antietam, and Bull Run - even evaluations of army commanders for charisma, reliability, and aggression (Grant scored 22 out of a possible 30, Lee 28).
In a Union cavalry, raid, see how campaigns are successful if objectives and aims are clearly defined and how the battles are won or lost by master manoeuvres or crucial failures.
The history, panoply, and roaring destruction of the Civil War, tabletop-style, are here. Charge!

Sold by Zana Muhsen with Andrew Crofts : True Account of Modern Slavery - Mass Market Paperback RARE
Only 1 left in stockZana Muhsen, born and bred in Birmingham, is of Yemeni origin. When her father told her she was to spend a holiday with relatives in North Yemen, she jumped at the chance. Aged 15 and 13 respectively, Zana and her sister discovered that they had been literally sold into marriage, and that on their arrival they were virtually prisoners. They had to adapt to a completely alien way of life, with no running water, dung-plastered walls, frequent beatings, and the ordeal of childbirth on bare floors with only old women in attendance. After eight years of misery and humiliation Zana succeeded in escaping, but her sister is still there, and it seems likely that she will now never leave the country where she has spent more than half her life. This is an updated edition of Zana's account of her experiences.

Dear Reader,
I was awfully excited when I was asked to write a book. I was however, nervous. I was afraid I didn’t have anything important to say. But when I began writing, I realized that although I don’t know a lot about any one thing, I know a little about a whole bunch of things: baking a pie; dancing; curing the common cold; running the Iditarod–it’s all in the book. And I realized I notice things that maybe some people don’t notice (or they don’t notice that they don’t notice). That’s all in the book, too.Time Flies by Bill Cosby - Paperback VINTAGE 1988 Remarkable Very Good Condition

The Mysteries of Easter Island by Jean-Michel Schwartz Paperback VINTAGE 1975 RARE
Only 1 left in stock"Easter Island is famous for its 887 monumental statues. Nobody really knows who made those statutes, or how or why. New Theories are being advanced, new studies made and new books published about this all the time. This is the only book that adequately explains how the giant statues were created and how they were transported. Basically, the statues were cut from the lips of the three volcanoes on the island. This still does not answer the question of how they were brought down to the water's edge."

Civilization and its Discontents by Sigmund Freud - Paperback RARE 1st American Edition 1962
Only 1 left in stockFreud’s seminal volume of twentieth-century cultural thought grounded in psychoanalytic theory.
Written in the decade before Freud’s death, Civilization and Its Discontents may be his most famous and most brilliant work. It has been praised, dissected, lambasted, interpreted, and reinterpreted. Originally published in 1930, it seeks to answer several questions fundamental to human society and its organization: What influences led to the creation of civilization? Why and how did it come to be? What determines civilization’s trajectory? Freud’s theories on the effect of the knowledge of death on human existence and the birth of art are central to his work. Of the various English translations of Freud’s major works to appear in his lifetime, only Norton’s Standard Edition, under the general editorship of James Strachey, was authorized by Freud himself.

Erotism Death & Sensuality by Georges Bataille - Paperback
Only 1 left in stockTaboo and sacrifice, transgression and language, death and sensuality—Georges Bataille pursues these themes with an original, often startling perspective. He challenges any single discourse on the erotic. The scope of his inquiry ranges from Emily Bronte to Sade, from St. Therese to Claude Levi-Strauss and Dr. Kinsey; and the subjects he covers include prostitution, mythical ecstasy, cruelty, and organized war. Investigating desire prior to and extending beyond the realm of sexuality, he argues that eroticism is "a psychological quest not alien to death."
" . . . one of the most original and unsettling of those thinkers who, in the wake of Sade and Nietzsche, have confronted the possibility of thought in a world that has lost its myth of transcendence."--Peter Brooks, New York Times Book Review
"Bataille is one of the most important writers of the century."--Michel Foucault
"[An] urgent, thrusting book about love, sex, death and spirituality by Georges Bataille."--Mark Price, Philosophy Now
Georges Bataille (1897-1962) was a French intellectual and literary icon who wrote essays, novels, and poems exploring philosophical and sociological subjects such as eroticism and surrealism. City Lights published more of Bataille's works including The Impossible, The Tears of Eros, and Story of the Eye.

The Money Pit Mystery by Rupert Furneaux - Paperback USED Nonfiction
Only 1 left in stockFor anyone's taking, a king's ransom. But no one has been able to take it from Oak Island -- WHY? The Money Pit on Oak Island might very well have been the source of inspiration for Edgar Allen Poe's famous mystery, The Gold Bug. Yet treasure hunters the world over have known about the gold buried on Oak Island for almost 200 years and have been frustrated in their attempts to recover it because it is protected by the tidal movement of the ocean around the island. Since 1795, countless adventurers and many well-financed syndicates have tried to wrest the gold from its hiding place. Some treasure hunters claim it is Captain Kidd's cache of Spanish gold and silver, other maintain just as stoutly that British gold is buried in the pit -- gold intended for use by Sir Henry Clinton to wage war against the colonies. . . . To the seekers of gold, it makes no difference who put it there -- if it is there -- and all of them are sure it is -- it is estimated to be worth $10,000,000 -- a king's ransom by any standard.

Side Effects by Woody Allen - Paperback RARE Collectible
Only 1 left in stockA humor classic by one of the funniest writers today, SIDE EFFECTS is a treat for all those who know his work and those just discovering how gifted he is. Included here are such classics as REMEMBERING NEEDLEMAN, THE KUGELMASS EPISODE, a new sory called CONFESSIONS OF A BUGLAR, and more.
Before Woody Allen set his sights on becoming the next Ingmar Bergman, he made a fleeting (but largely successful) attempt at becoming the next S.J Perelman. Side Effects, his third and final collection of humor pieces, shows his efforts. These essays appeared in The New Yorker during the late 1970s, as he showed more and more discontent with his funnyman status. Fear not, humor fans--Allen's still funny. He is less manic, however, than in his positively goofy Getting Even/Without Feathersdays, and this makes Side Effects a more nuanced read. Woody picks and chooses when to flash the laughs, as in an article discussing UFOs:
[I]n 1822 Goethe himself notes a strange celestial phenomenon. "En route home from the Leipzig Anxiety Festival," he wrote, "I was crossing a meadow, when I chanced to look up and saw several fiery red balls suddenly appear in the southern sky. They descended at a great rate of speed and began chasing me. I screamed that I was a genius and consequently could not run very fast, but my words were wasted. I became enraged and shouted imprecations at them, whereupon they flew away frightened. I related this story to Beethoven, not realizing he had already gone deaf, and he smiled and nodded and said, "Right."
Though not as explosively, mind-alteringly funny as his earlier books, Side Effects is still loaded with chuckles; the much-anthologized "Kugelmass Episode" is worth the price of the book. For fans of his films--or for anyone who wants a final glimpse of Woody in his first, best role as court jester, Side Effects is a must-have. --Michael Gerber

Symbolism and Art Nouveau by Alastair Mackintosh - Paperback USED Illustrated
Only 1 left in stockSoon after the middle of the nineteenth century, the Romantic tradition in art produced a surprising new phenomenon: a literary form of painting aiming to express only the inexpressible. The Symbolists were an assorted collection of painters, and very few of them as it happens, were talents of the first rank. But what they did--and the work of their most distinguished representative, Paul Gauguin, shows this most clearly--was to liberate the artist, once and for all, from the duty of depicting what could be seen. Colors which reflect only the artist's state of mind; beings that belong only to dream or hallucination; a remarkably consistent refusal to tell, as other painters did, an unambiguous story with a describable meaning--these are the factors linking Symbolist painters who, stylistically, are at opposite poles. Art Nouveau, unlike Symbolism, was a style--but it was Symbolism that freed form, and consequently design, from dependence on tradition, and made possible the stylized vegetable forms--even the patterning--from which the grace of Art Nouveau derives.

Spoon River Anthology by Edgar Lee Masters - Paperback VINTAGE Classics 1962
Only 1 left in stockOriginally published in Reedy’s Mirror from May 29, 1914 until January 5, 1915 and then first in book form in 1915 with an expanded edition in 1916, “Spoon River Anthology” is a collection of poetry inspired by the tombstones of the dead in a small rural American town. There is no real Spoon River as the entire town and its inhabitants are fictional but much of the town and its deceased occupants are based in part on Masters’ own childhood growing up in small towns in Illinois. Spoon River Anthology is Edgar Lee Masters’ masterpiece, a collection of poetry that weaves a tapestry of the lives of a group of small-town Americans, which taken together reads like a novel critiquing the notion of the idyllic rural American life. A critical and financial success from its first publication, Spoon River Anthology is a truly original work of American literature, the likes of which there has not been before or since. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper; follows the expanded 1916 edition with its additional thirty-five poems, “The Spooniad”, and the epilogue; and includes an introduction by May Swenson.

The Book of Five Rings (Gorin No Sho) by Miyamoto Musashi - Mass Market Paperback USED Classics
Only 1 left in stockThe Real Art of Japanese Management
The Book of Five Rings is one of the most insightful texts on the subtle arts of confrontation and victory to emerge from Asian culture. Written not only for martial artists but for anyone who wants to apply the timeless principles of this text to their life, the book analyzes the process of struggle and mastery over conflict that underlies every level of human interaction.
The Book of Five Rings was composed in 1643 by the famed duelist and undefeated samurai Miyamoto Musashi. Thomas Cleary's translation is immediately accessible, with an introduction that presents the spiritual background of the warrior tradition. Along with Musashi's text, Cleary translates here another important Japanese classic on leadership and strategy, The Book of Family Traditions on the Art of Warby Yagyu Munenori, which highlights the ethical and spiritual insights of Taoism and Zen as they apply to the way of the warrior.From Library Journal
Written by legendary Japanese swordsman Musashi, this 17th-century exposition of sword-fighting strategy and Zen philosophy has been embraced by many contemporary readers, especially business school students, as a manual on how to succeed in life. There are many English translations...what makes this new translation worthwhile is the second text, buried deep in the back like an appendix: Yagyu Munenori's The Book of Family Traditions on the Art of War. This text, also an exposition on sword fighting and Zen philosophy, is difficult to find in an English translation, and its availability is welcome. Recommended for academic libraries generally.
