Book Description
Kenji Miyazawa is one of modern Japan’s most beloved writers, a great poet and a strange and marvelous spinner of tales, whose sly, humorous, enchanting, and enigmatic stories bear a certain resemblance to those of his contemporary Robert Walser. John Bester’s selection and expert translation of Miyazawa’s short fiction reflects its full range from the joyful, innocent “Wildcat and the Acorns,” to the cautionary tale “The Restaurant of Many Orders,” to “The Earthgod and the Fox,” which starts out whimsically before taking a tragic turn. Miyazawa also had a deep connection to Japanese folklore and an intense love of the natural world. In “The Wild Pear,” what seem to be two slight nature sketches succeed in encapsulating some of the cruelty and compensations of life itself.

Book Description
The New York Times–bestselling author once again “proves that love is timeless” with this tale of a modern woman who finds love in Elizabethan England (Nora Roberts). Maggie Whitaker looks out the small window on her red-eye flight to London, asking herself a simple question. What is she doing here? Running away is the answer. Running away from unemployment, a mortgage, an artist ex-husband demanding alimony. But, Maggie is also running towards something…A romance that lies hundreds of years in the past. Nicholas Layton is the third son of the Earl of Traherne, introduced at the court and summoned by the house of Amebury to Greville Manor. On his way there, Nicholas is thrown from his horse and meets this enchanting, perplexing Margaret who claims to come from the future. Surely she must be confused, especially considering how entangled she already is in the political machinations of Elizabeth’s royal court. But, the truth unfolds in a single, perfect kiss… In ONCE AND FOREVER, Constance O’Day-Flannery, the original “Queen of Time Travel Romance,” shows that nothing--not insidious plots, not royal decree, not even a distance of centuries--can get in the way of true love.

Book Description
From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Carrie Ann Ryan comes a sexy new contemporary stand-alone series. Hazel Noble has survived horrors she wouldn’t inflict on her worst enemy. Since then, she’s healed, found herself, and connected with a group of women she’s proud to call her friends. However, when they make a pact to start looking for love, Hazel finds herself not only up first but also forced to face a past she thought she’d escaped. Cross Brady has no need for a relationship. As the oldest of five, he’s always been the one his family can rely on. Now, all he wants is to work in peace and live his life.

Dinosaurs come to battle dragons, and 747s eclipse the Moon—and that’s just for starters. So it is that our heroes must leave hearth and home to go upon their four separate anti-quests to bury for another thousand years the powers that saved the world. And you can join them—Forever After…. With Robert Asprin, David Drake, Jane Lindskold & Mike Stackpole. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).
