Best-selling author Alice Taylor's classic account of growing up in the Irish countryside and the biggest selling book ever published in Ireland. If ever a voice has captured the colours, the rhythms, the rich, bittersweet emotions of a time gone by, it is Alice Taylor's. Her tales of childhood in rural Ireland hark back to a timeless past, to a world now lost, but ever and fondly remembered. The colourful characters and joyous moments she offers have made To School through the Fields an Irish phenomenon.

The fire took everything I worked for: My rescue. My livelihood. My home. But I won’t let it take my passion for the lost animals of this world. In time, I will rebuild, but for now, the only roof over my head is my car. I had every intention of sleeping off the adrenaline and anxiety in my little bubble of solitude until a grumpy firefighter practically drags me to his firehouse where he demands I stay put and take time to heal from the disaster. How can I heal when the arsonist is still out there and the entire firehouse is insisting I’m an omega?

Dolli was just getting to like the idea of being the overlord of Monster Haven when a roaming Warmonger set his eyes on her dungeon core. Some of her citizens have defected to the enemy horde for the promise of safety, and now Dolli has a choice to make. Does she wipe them out to save those who remain, or does she sacrifice herself to save them all? But the defectors don’t know that the Warmonger has an even more sinister plot than just consuming Dolli’s core—and when they finally see his true monstrous nature, will it be too late?

Dolli had a very hands-off approach to ruling her once booming village. She preferred to use her alchemical skills to brew a nice cup of tea and keep whiny petitioners off her lawn with Wendigo repellant. But she pays the price for her apathy when her neglected village transforms into a Dungeon, making it fair game for any Hero with a lust for loot.

My life was complicated enough with family expectations and boundaries I couldn’t cross. I didn’t need more on my plate, but I couldn’t resist. The only plan was to help their daughter learn to skate and give them a helping hand with an extra nanny gig, filling my time with people who made me happy. Nothing else was supposed to happen. We all made that very clear. But biology had other ideas…

Alice Cooper reflects on his extraordinary career, the shock-rock legacy that changed live performance, and how artists like Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson carried that spirit into a new era.

Sadie Wen is perfect on paper: school captain, valedictorian, and a "pleasure to have in class." It's not easy, but she has a trick to keep her model-student smile plastered on her face at all times: she channels all her frustrations into her email drafts. She'd never send them of course—she'd rather die than hurt anyone's feelings—but it's a relief to let loose on her power-hungry English teacher or a freeloading classmate taking credit for Sadie's work. All her most vehemently worded emails are directed at her infuriating cocaptain, Julius Gong.
