In the early years of the Cold War, history appeared to unfold in visible places, named and endlessly photographed. Berlin, with its walls and checkpoints. Korea, with its shifting front lines. Later, Cuba, where the world seemed to hold its breath for thirteen days. These locations dominate popular memory because they offered drama, confrontation, and moments that could be frozen into images and slogans. Yet many of the most enduring decisions of that era were made far from cameras and capitals, in places that appeared peripheral precisely because they were remote.

A vibrant and powerful epic set against an alternate Bronze Age, this tale of gods, men and monsters, conspiracy and war, is a rich, compelling and original story from a master of the historical and fantasy genres. The people caught up in toils of the gods are merely trying to survive. Victims of vicious whims, trapped by their circumstances or pushed beyond what the mortal frame can bear, a handful of god-touched mortals - a scribe, a warlord, a dancer and a child - are about to be brought together in a conspiracy of their own.

In November 1983, the Cold War reached one of its most dangerous and least remembered turning points. Able Archer 83 was not a battle, not an invasion, and not a declared crisis. It was a NATO command-post exercise, a controlled rehearsal designed to test communications, procedures, and decision-making in the event of war. Yet behind the closed doors of bunkers and command centres, it unfolded in a climate so tense, so brittle, and so saturated with fear that the Soviet Union reportedly interpreted elements of the exercise as preparation for a real nuclear first strike.

Miles Franklin began the candid, passionate, and contrary My Brilliant Career when she was only 16, intending for it to be the Australian answer to Jane Eyre. This thinly veiled autobiographical tale of a young girl hungering for life and love in the outback was so beyond its years when first released in 1901 that Franklin insisted it not be published again until 10 years after her death. My Brilliant Career is a coming of age story for all of the ages.

Operation Chrome Dome uncovers one of the Cold War’s most astonishing and unsettling secrets: for years, the United States kept nuclear-armed B-52 bombers flying around the clock, ready to launch a retaliatory strike at a moment’s notice. This gripping, factual narrative takes readers inside the hidden world of airborne deterrence—where “peace” was protected by aircraft carrying weapons capable of ending entire cities, and where routine missions depended on perfect discipline, flawless technology, and a constant battle against fatigue, weather, and human error.

Samuel Whitehead, landlord of the Rose and Crown, is a stranger in the lonely East Anglian village of High Eldersham. And when the newcomer is stabbed to death in his pub, it seems that the veil dividing High Eldersham from the outside world is about to be lifted. Detective Inspector Young forms a theory about the case so utterly impossible that merely entertaining the suspicion makes him doubt his own sanity. Surrounded by sinister forces beyond his understanding, he calls on a brilliant amateur and 'living encyclopedia', Desmond Merrion.

Only fools think war is simple. Or glorious. Some are warriors, some captains; others tend to the fallen or feed the living. But on the magic-drenched battlefield, information is the lifeblood of victory, and Aranthur is about to discover that carrying messages, scouting the enemy, keeping his nerve, and passing on orders is more dangerous, and more essential, then an inexperienced soldier could imagine...especially when everything starts to go wrong.

So is it any wonder that she dresses herself as a scullery maid and bolts into the night?

In Operation Condor, Miles Dunsford uncovers how this transnational machine functioned, from target lists and surveillance networks to renditions, black sites, and the deliberate use of disappearance as a tool of control.

Operation Mongoose is the untold story of America’s most relentless covert campaign against Fidel Castro’s Cuba, launched in the bitter aftermath of the Bay of Pigs disaster. What began as a demand for payback became a secret war of sabotage, infiltration, propaganda, and plots—an invisible struggle conducted in the shadows, yet powerful enough to shake the entire Cold War. With vivid narrative clarity, this book takes you behind closed doors where intelligence officers and political leaders convinced themselves that pressure could break a revolution.

In 1954, a small Central American nation became the testing ground for a new kind of power. Guatemala was not invaded by armies in the traditional sense. There was no formal declaration of war, no clear front line, no obvious foreign takeover. Instead, a democratically elected government was dismantled through pressure, propaganda, proxies, and fear. The operation had a name that sounded clinical and harmless. Its effects were anything but. Operation PBSUCCESS reveals how a country can be brought to its knees without tanks rolling down the capital’s streets.

During the Cold War, the most decisive battles were often the ones no one ever saw. While missiles stood on alert and submarines prowled the oceans, a quieter war unfolded beneath the surface, fought with patience, engineering brilliance, and extraordinary nerve. Operation Ivy Bells was one of the boldest operations of that hidden conflict, a mission so audacious that its success depended entirely on remaining invisible.

Before iron helmets and steel swords, when dragons roamed the world, was an age of bronze and stone, when the Gods walked the earth, and people lived in terror. In this era a scribe, a warlord, a dancer, a mute insect and a child should have no chance against the might of the bickering gods and...

Nyx bit me. The dark, brooding alpha of the Bloodmoon pack bit me. He's so much more than just an enemy to Ambrose. More than the mysterious, alluring alpha who is notorious for his brutality. He's not just a wolf shifter—he's a vampire. Everything about the world I knew was wrong. I was on the verge of completing the marking ceremony—to breaking the curse—until Nyx swooped in, claiming I'm his mate, not Ambrose's, and ruined everything. And then he bit me.

Converting your home to solar energy is one of the best investments you will ever make. You’ve heard that installing solar power reduces the value of your home. Or that your roof will leak if you install solar power. You may even have heard that if solar panels are imperfectly installed, your house will burn down. Don’t believe any of it. They’re just not true.
