Few people have heard of Carstensz Pyramid, a sharp fin of limestone 16,000 feet above sea level, surrounded by mountainous jungle in Papua, a part of the world wracked by political and tribal violence, where kidnappings of climbers still occur. Why bother to climb such a troublesome, little-known peak? This book describes Carol Masheter's decision to climb Carstensz Pyramid at age 65, how she prepared for and experienced the strenuous hike through the jungle, the steep climb up a limestone wall of 2,000 feet, the hand-over-hand Tyrolean traverse, the challenges, joys, and lessons learned on the "other side of nowhere."

David Kindon, a lifetime football fan and amateur player, decided to track a number of English football teams from club level at Saltash United through all fourteen group stages, all the way to the FA Cup Final in the 2018 - 2019 season. His passion for 'The Beautiful Game' comes through strongly as he entertains all lovers of football in an account replete with amusing anecdotes and with typically dry English humour, provides a fascinating look into the quirks and personalities of players, managers, coaches and media personalities, some of whom became trusted friends. He makes no secret of his regret at how the game has changed with the advent of the Premier League, the influence of the media and the vast sums of money that have been poured into the professional game.

Wellington Books and Eliza D. Braun arrive in Cairo, Egypt, sent from Ministry headquarters on an archival audit. What Wellington hopes will be a stay in the cradle of civilization and a break from the bitter winter of England instead looks to be a brief visit on account of Eliza’s poor attitude and the disdain of the area field director, Marcus Donahue. The plans for an uneventful collection of case documents and artefacts are soon shattered by a massacre that that can only be described by the visiting archivists as peculiar. Tales from the Archives are short stories set in the world of the Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences. They explore events mentioned in the novels, characters seen and unseen and may include novel teasers of things to come.
