Alf Lomax just wants a quiet life. And since he lives in the village of Gribble that’s just as well, because there are no other kinds available. Nothing happens in Gribble. Ever. No-one leaves, no-one arrives, and no-one does anything remotely interesting. Alf lives with his mother, goes to school, and hangs out with his best friend, Wilf Atkins. That’s it. When Wilf is chased out of a drain by a dragon one Sunday afternoon, Alf’s boring but safe life is transformed, and he’s not at all happy about it. He has enough trouble dealing with next door’s cat, let alone a mythical creature from another reality. And the dragon is just the beginning of the weirdness. Certain people Alf has known since he was born turn out to have been leading far more interesting lives than they were letting on. And for some reason, they seem determined to make him do the same. Can Alf avoid the adventure he really doesn’t want to have, prevent a lethal clash between realities, and avoid detention for setting fire to the school?

With its unparalleled coverage of English slang of all types (from 18th-century cant to contemporary gay slang), and its uncluttered editorial apparatus, Cassell's Dictionary of Slang was warmly received when its first edition appeared in 1998. 'Brilliant.' said Mark Lawson on BBC2's The Late Review; 'This is a terrific piece of work - learned, entertaining, funny, stimulating' said Jonathan Meades in The Evening Standard.But now the world's best single-volume dictionary of English slang is about to get even better. Jonathon Green has spent the last seven years on a vast project: to research in depth the English slang vocabulary and to hunt down and record written instances of the use of as many slang words as possible. This has entailed trawling through more than 4000 books - plus song lyrics, TV and movie scripts, and many newspapers and magazines - for relevant material. The research has thrown up some fascinating results

Providing an alphabetical listing of sexual language and locution in 16th and 17th-century English, this book draws especially on the more immediate literary modes: the theatre, broadside ballads, newsbooks and pamphlets. The aim is to assist the reader of Shakespearean and Stuart literature to identify metaphors and elucidate meanings; and more broadly, to chart, through illustrative quotation, shifting and recurrent linguistic patterns. Linguistic habit is closely bound up with the ideas and assumptions of a period, and the figurative language of sexuality across this period is highly illuminating of socio-cultural change as well as linguistic development. Thus the entries offer as much to those concerned with social history and the history of ideas as to the reader of Shakespeare or Dryden.

Magical artifices, dragon-shifters, palace intrigues and meddling sorcery meet in Behind the Dragon’s Veil, the first novel in a new YA Fantasy series. After seventeen years of seclusion and secrecy, Annarae, an artificer, and now the queen of Andrandria, sits the throne and embraces freedom for the first time. But her problems are far from over. In the dark of the night, a dragon reduces an entire village to ash. She organizes a tournament to assemble slayers, even as her royal council tries to humiliate and undermine her. Meanwhile fighters travel to Sar to fight in her tournament. Among them; the dragon himself, and the maginari behind the attack. With a killer bent on stealing a power she doesn’t have, a queen without a husband and heir is perilous to the realm. To appease her royal council, Annarae must marry the tournament champion or risk losing her throne. Filled with surprise, romance, secrets and wonder, Behind the Dragon’s veil is perfect for fans of the classic RAPUNZEL, TALON, A GATHERING OF SHADOWS and A COURT OF MIST AND FURY.
