Product Description Battle Royale, a high-octane thriller about senseless youth violence, is one of Japan's best-selling - and most controversial - novels. As part of a ruthless program by the totalitarian government, ninth-grade students are taken to a small isolated island with a map, food, and various weapons. Forced to wear special collars that explode when they break a rule, they must fight each other for three days until only one "winner" remains. The elimination contest becomes the ultimate in must-see reality television. A Japanese pulp classic available in English for the first time, Battle Royale is a potent allegory of what it means to be young and survive in today's dog-eat-dog world. The first novel by small-town journalist Koushun Takami, it went on to become an even more notorious film by 70-year-old gangster director Kinji Fukusaku. See less

Amazon.com Review Fingersmith is the third slice of engrossing lesbian Victoriana from Sarah Waters. Although lighter and more melodramatic in tone than its predecessor, Affinity, this hypnotic suspense novel is awash with all manner of gloomy Dickensian leitmotifs: pickpockets, orphans, grim prisons, lunatic asylums, "laughing villains," and, of course, "stolen fortunes and girls made out to be mad." Divided into three parts, the tale is narrated by two orphaned girls whose lives are inextricably linked. Waters's penchant for byzantine plotting can get a bit exhausting, but even at its densest moments--and remember, this is smoggy London circa 1862--it remains mesmerizing. A damning critique of Victorian moral and sexual hypocrisy, a gripping melodrama, and a love story to boot, this book ingeniously reworks some truly classic themes. --Travis Elborough, Amazon.co.uk --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From Library Journal In Victorian London,... See less

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies -- Pride and Prejudice and Zombies features the original text of Jane Austen's beloved novel with all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie action. As our story opens, a mysterious plague has fallen upon the quiet English village of Meryton—and the dead are returning to life! Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet is determined to wipe out the zombie menace, but she's soon distracted by the arrival of the haughty and arrogant Mr. Darcy. What ensues is a delightful comedy of manners with plenty of civilized sparring between the two young lovers—and even more violent sparring on the blood-soaked battlefield as Elizabeth wages war against hordes of flesh-eating undead. Complete with 20 illustrations in the style of C. E. Brock (the original illustrator of Pride and Prejudice), this insanely funny expanded edition will introduce Jane Austen's classic novel to new legions of fans.

From Booklist What if the bad-boy hunk in your class was actually a sword-wielding demon slayer? That’s the enticing scenario offered up in Brennan’s debut, and although the results are periodically workmanlike, they will satisfy the legions currently clamoring for this brand of dark fantasy. Nick (the aforementioned hunk) lives with his empty-shell mother and older brother Alan, but they’re constantly on the move as they hunt—and are hunted by—evil magicians and their conjured demons. Their brutal routine is interrupted by the arrival of two teen siblings in need of help, one of whom has been “marked” by a demon for certain death and the other of whom fosters a growing desire for one of the brothers. Though unique, the mythology has some holes and feels needlessly convoluted. That said, Brennan excels when she dwells upon her characters’ more human emotions (desire, loneliness, loyalty), and hits her stride in the final stretch, creating several scenes of unexpected horror and piling...

A reviewer, in love with this book, 09/11/2008 I got the advanced copy from my media specialist, and I literally read it in 5 hours. I could not put it down. It was so amazing. It was grabbing from the beginning, with her poaching and the explanation of her life. Which sounds boring, but trust me, it's not. Even the part before the games, it's good. The Capitol's regime and character is so interesting, and slightly nauseating. And when the games begin, there's no stop in action from there. You HAVE to read this book. It's amazing, and is now 'officially' my favorite book. All day I couldn't stop thinking about it, couldn't even start reading another book because my thoughts would drift back to it. See less

"Witty, light, and funny... Regency romance as well as fantasy fans are going to line up for it."--The Bulletin" Older girls who have outgrown Harry Potter will like their slightly rebellious natures, the magical twists and turns, and especially the humor and quick pace."--The San Diego Union A great deal is happening in London and the country this season. For starters, there's the witch who tried to poison Kate at the Royal College of Wizards. There's also the man who seems to be spying on Cecelia. (Though he's not doing a very good job of it--so just what are his intentions?) And then there's Oliver. Ever since he was turned into a tree, he hasn't bothered to tell anyone where he is. Clearly, magic is a deadly and dangerous business. And the girls might be in fear for their lives . . . if only they weren't having so much fun! See less

Förra året lät J K Rowling tillverka sju unika exemplar av sagosamlingen The Tales of Beedle the Bard. Varje ex handskrevs och illustrerades på pergament, för att sedan bindas i brunt marockanskt läder och prydas av halvädelstenar. Hon gav bort sex av böckerna till de som stått närmast Harry Potter-serien genom åren, medan den sjunde auktionerades ut för över 25 miljoner kronor. Köpesumman gick till förmån för välgörande ändamål. J K Rowling har nu låtit kunggöra att det kommer en vanlig utgåva i vinter och royalties från boken ska gå till en fond som stödjer vård av barn. "Den nya utgåvan," säger Rowling, "kommer innehålla de ursprungliga berättelserna, översatta av Hermione Granger från originalets runtext, med illustrationer av mig, och efter generöst tillstånd från Hogwarts Rektorsarkiv även med annoteringar av professor Aldus Dumbledore." The Tales of Beedle the Bard släpps den 4 december. See less
