Book Description
I am Sylvia Honeyeater; I think myself born around 1196, and this is the story of my life. I am cursed by folk as an optimist and a dreamer, which is a dangerous combination...' ''sylvia'' is the story of the Children's Crusade, which occurred in the year 1212, and is perhaps the strangest true event to have taken place in European history. It is also a story of how, throughout some of the darkest medieval times, the redeeming power and strength of a young woman's love and intelligence prevail over poverty, brutality and bigotry. Sylvia was a remarkable, talented and eccentric young woman and this is her story.

Book Description
'FIZZES WITH ENERGY AND REBELLION' SAMANTHA SHANNON 'WITTY, GRITTY, AND VICIOUS FUN' HANNAH KANER 'UTTERLY ENTHRALLING' SAARA EL-ARIFI An explosive cyberpunk SF thriller from the author of Mindwalker, set in a world of corporate intrigue and dangerous technology. No more quiet rebellions. Born into a religious cult, Indra Dyer lives a simple, tech-free existence. But when an illicit trip leaves her with a debilitating - and terminal - condition, Indra must choose: die faithful or betray her Order and accept the cure Glindell Technologies is offering. Forced to sign over her life, Indra is horrified to learn the true nature of Glindell's plans. Instead of saving her body, they upload her mind to a MindDrive, housed in a robotic shell. On the outside, Indra looks the same; on the inside, she's not so sure. She keeps finding herself in places she really shouldn't be, with no memory of how she got there, and dangerous abilities she can't explain. So when news breaks of an attack against Glindell's biggest rival, Indra suspects the worst. With the help of Tian - a research assistant with questionable morals and a smile that won't quit - Indra must uncover the truth, before Glindell can use it to change the face of technology, and what it means to be human, forever . . .
