When, at the age of 46, Denis Shirley suddenly finds himself out of a job, he decides to turn a minor problem into a major opportunity by realising the dream of a lifetime. He sets off, in an old Land Rover, to visit all the remote parts of Southern Africa to spend some quiet time with the continent's wild animals and to learn a little about their way of life. Just before departing on this odyssey, however, things take an interesting turn... A humorous and informative stroll through the fascinating - and often frightening - ways of the African wild. And a lament for its fast-disappearing wildlife.
If you ever see a Skinwalker..."A cloud drifted across the moon as an unnaturally tall and thin man crept across the ranch boundary. He slunk more than walked, loped more than ran, as if a giant, feral spider crept out in the world, in the shape of a man."His hair hung behind his back in a long ponytail, his gaunt features obscured by the dark and the distance. But the aura he gave off was distinct. He was a naagloshii, and a powerful one. An ancient skin-walker, a spirit of evil that feasted off death - and that aura followed him wherever he went."Call Eddie Burma.When his small town is plagued by a life-stealing Navajo shaman and his coven, Eddie takes them on. Except the conflict pulls him into a far reaching plot where he faces the Demonic lord of torment, evil mages, gunslingers and spirits from a time long past.

A New Book of Words.A zebra without stripes is first to die.To be different runs opposite to human nature. We want to be part of the collective and join in something bigger than ourselves and the biggest group of all is, you guessed it, idiots. You are aware of this and you may already be an idiot yourself. Most people around you are idiots already. This you know, because you see it every day.We say this, not to divide us, because at the end of the day, we, all of us have this in common. We really are feeble minded fools, every single one of us, or soon we will be. Most books demonstrate this in a million ways, which is why they are best avoided, but the easiest way to confirm this fact is just to turn on the television or look at your social media feed. You will see an endless parade of idiots doing and saying the most dull-witted things imaginable, and still, we listen to them, look up to them and often emulate and even imitate them.The Idiot's Guide to Idiots is small book of almost 700 words which will entertain, give you insights, helpful hints, and idiotic usage examples into the evolving English language.>If you want to be a hapless lummox or want to unlearn how to find the doorknob THE IDIOT'S GUIDE TO IDIOTSis for you.On the other hand, in the unlikely event you don't think you are quite ready to join the growing ranks of foolish idiots around you, this is the perfect guide to seeing the world as it is seen by dullards, without restraining the English language with archaic notions of tradition, convention or reality. In the final analysis this A to Z guide is a warm invitation to join the well-established and fast-growing universe of whimsical, wilful ignorance and boisterous buffoonery.

Amor, acción y aventura en el corazón de los Alpes.Llega el libro 3 de la serie romántica de aventuras Mont Blanc. Kat lo tiene todo: un trabajo que adora pilotando helicópteros en la unidad de búsqueda y rescate de Mont Blanc, los mejores amigos que una chica puede pedir, y tiempo libre para pasar haciendo lo que más le gusta, esquiar. Lo único que no tiene, ni quiere tener, es un novio. Ella sabe de primera mano lo que ocurre cuando confías en la persona equivocada, y es un error que no está dispuesta a cometer de nuevo. Luc ya lo perdió todo una vez. Seis años después del accidente de snowboarding que lo dejó paraplégico, se ha hecho a la vida en una silla de ruedas, y se ha reinventado a si mismo como atleta paralímpico. Un accidente en las pistas les une a los dos, y les hace cuestionarse todo lo que pensaban que sabían sobre el amor, las relaciones... y las cosas por las que merece la pena arriesgarlo todo. Nota al lector: aunque Montaña de hielo es el libro 3 de la serie Mont Blanc, cada libro se puede leer como una historia con final propio (Happily Ever After garantizado).
