Book Description
Transported to a medieval realm of magic and myth, a World War II resistance fighter undertakes a perilous quest in this classic fantasy adventure. Holger Carlsen is a rational man of science. A Danish engineer working with the Resistance to defeat the Nazis, he is wounded during an engagement with the enemy and awakens in an unfamiliar parallel universe where the forces of Law are locked in eternal combat with the forces of Chaos. Against a medieval backdrop, brave knights must take up arms against magical creatures of myth and faerie, battling dragons, trolls, werewolves, and giants. Though Holger has no recollection of this world, he discovers he is already well-known throughout the lands, a hero revered as a Champion of Law. He finds weaponry and armor awaiting him—precisely fitted to his form—and a shield with three hearts and three lions emblazoned upon it. As he journeys through a realm filled with wonders in search of the key to his past, Holger will call upon the scientific knowledge of his home dimension, the destinies of both worlds hanging in the balance. Before Thomas Covenant, Roger Zelazny’s Amber, and J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings, the great Poul Anderson introduced readers to the Middle World and the legendary hero Ogier the Dane. Inventive and exciting, Three Hearts and Three Lions is a foray into fantasy that employs touches of science fiction from an award-winning master of the speculative.

Book Description
‘The Hideaway by Pam Smy is a work of art. Smy is the genius writer and illustrator of the stunning Thornhill. Smy takes children’s books to another level. Highly recommend.’ - David Walliams The wonderful long-awaited second novel from Pam Smy, celebrated author and illustrator of Thornhill. The Hideaway tells the story of a boy, Billy McKenna, who runs away from a difficult situation at home and takes refuge in an overgrown graveyard. While hiding there he meets an elderly man who is tending the graves in preparation for a day in November when something magical is set to happen. The book is written in two alternating narratives, both different aspects of the same story. One thread tells of Billy's experience of hiding away in the graveyard, his mixed-up feelings and emotions, and the supernatural events he eventually witnesses. The other tells of his mother's situation at home and the police search for Billy. Covering themes of family, childhood, separation and reunion, domestic violence and doing the right thing, this is an important and beautiful book for middle grade readers right up to adults. Billy's story is illustrated throughout with tonal and textured black and white drawings, until the event on All Souls' Eve, when the text gives way to a series of double page images of the supernatural happening. The Hideaway is a compelling, exciting and emotional story that will stay with you long after you finish the last page.

Book Description
Be blessed richly by reading how Daniel looked up from the den's bottom and saw the sky disappearing, along with the natural light dimming, as several beams of ghostly light suddenly pierced the cloud of blackness that usually existed when the covering stone was being put into place. And from out of that dimly lit place dozens of hellish eyes all around him all of a sudden were glowing like beacons of incoming death aflame as dozens of lions quickly encircled him. But as they slowly neared, the devilish blood lust within their eyes immediately faded away with the ghostly light's increase that was happening all around Daniel at the very same time. Furthermore, the reddish glare within the eyes of those starving beasts abruptly began glowing a beautiful shade of blue because of the reflection of that intensifying incandescent ghostly light, which was radiating all around Daniel like a blanket of some glorious warmth.Even those lions stopped dead in their tracks, many being only a few feet away from that son of Jerusalem. 'Twas then a delightful moment when that prophet of the King of Heaven unexpectedly felt His anointing fall upon his shoulders, as the sound of a rushing wind supernaturally swept through that cavernous looking den, swiftly causing most of those overgrown cats to back off several feet. So without any warning, Daniel was abruptly being placed under the raging fires of God's blazing love, while his very own heart was immediately inflamed with wonder, once he realized that this den of death was ablaze with life.
