Celine Kiernan
¥9.71
A gorgeous short story from the collection, BEYOND THE STARS, written and illustrated by two great Irish talents in children’s fiction today As battle rages beyond the castle walls and soldiers fall like flies, the king despairs. His kingdom is crumbling around him, and he has lost his fighting spirit. His people know that without that, they will surely lose the war. While the bombs fall and arrows rain down, a black cat wanders silently amongst them, invisible but for her footprints in the snow. Only she may pass unnoticed through the deserted courtyards and along the empty corridors and snow-covered battlements of the once-bustling palace. For she has taken a silent vow to protect the princess who once saved her from drowning as a kitten. Watching her at play, lonely as can be, the cat knows she can never abandon her charge; she must help her and the young prince find each other, even if she is the last one remaining. A beautifully crafted tale by a highly regarded author with delicate illustrations to match by one of Ireland’s rising stars.

Ibiza Insanity (Summer Flings, Book 5)
Aimee Duffy
¥9.71
"Woo hoo, the girls are back for the fifth instalment of sun, fun and adventure. This time they are hitting the centre of party land....Ibiza! When I saw the title I laughed and tried to imagine what exploits they could be getting up to!! This series is consistently brilliant and so well written. I love how each part of the series unwraps another aspect of the characters and who they really are. I am loving seeing them develop and wish I had gone to uni, made friends like them, and gone off travelling" Jill Loves to Read "I love Aimee Duffy's Summer Flings series more and more with each new novella. I said the same about Point Us to Paris but Ibiza Insanity was absolutely my favourite! This had everything I wanted to see and really developed the plot and characters further to the point where with only two novellas left, I've no idea how things are going to work out" Reviewed the Book "These books are fun, flirty and full of graphic and very hot sex that would get a Nun going ... I'm actually going to be pretty gutted when the series is over, it's been a lot of fun so far and I can't recommend it enough." Book Addict Shaun Part 5 of Summer Flings - a fun, flirty and laugh out loud rom com series of short stories. After their not-so-relaxing week in the sun, the girls are off to the clubbing capitol of the world to let off some steam. Skater boys, Ibiza's Next Top Model competition and skimpy gold bikini's don't compare to the man Ciara's desperate to cheer up. She's beginning to realize her summer fling isn't as uncomplicated as it should be. To make things worse, she finds out that her best friends are keeping secrets from her that could change everything... The ideal summer treat for those relaxing days soaking up the sun!

Charlie Milverton - A Modern Sherlock Holmes Story
Charlie Milverton - A Modern Sherlock Holmes Story
Walters, Charlotte Anne
¥9.71
A modern re-working of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic Sherlock Holmes story, Charles Augustus Milverton. Instead of the Victorian world of debutants and stolen love letters, we have a fallen tabloid editor capitalising on the nation's thirst for celebrity gossip and threatening to expose a young pop star for a dalliance caught on a security camera. On the advice of her security manager, ex Scotland Yard detective Gareth Lestrade, Milverton's blackmail victim consults Sherlock Holmes. Irascible, difficult, eccentric but brilliant, Holmes brings the full weight of his intellect to bear on this new case despite the obstinacy of his opponent. And it all provides a very welcome distraction for his ex flat-mate John Watson whose book about their adventures together had done little to rescue him from his midlife crisis. Or make his wife happy. First story in a series of five modern Sherlock Holmes adventures based on original works by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

The chilling account of a pivotal encounter between innocence and ultimate malice, Darkness Under the Sun is the perfect read for Halloween – or for any haunted night – and reveals a secret, fateful turning point in the career of Alton Turner Blackwood, the killer at the dark heart of What the Night Knows, the forthcoming novel by Sunday Times bestselling author Dean Koontz. There once was a killer who knew the night, its secrets and rhythms. How to hide within its shadows. When to hunt. He roamed from town to town, city to city, choosing his prey for their beauty and innocence. His cruelties were infinite, his humanity long since forfeit. But still…he had not yet discovered how to make his special mark among monsters, how to come fully alive as Death. This is the story of how he learned those things, and of what we might do to insure that he does not visit us. Darkness Under the Sun is as chilling as it is unforgettable. It is available exclusively for download in electronic book format.
