Whether you feel stuck on autopilot—or totally off course—this book provides a roadmap back to a more authentic and joyful life. Laura Atchison seemed to have it all—a great career, ambitious goals, and a loving family—when she realized that she was off course. By digging deeper, she discovered she hadn’t been asking herself the right questions, and as a result, had been living the wrong answers. By revealing her riveting and candid story—including mistakes she made along the way—Atchison provides practical lessons on how to be a wiser and more fulfilled woman by asking the right key questions—about career, family, relationships, spiritual life, finances, and more. “Shows you how to ask the right questions at every turn to create the path of your dreams.” —Melissa Tosetti, author of Living the Savvy Life

#1 New York Times bestselling author Philippa Gregory weaves an unforgettable tale of a young woman’s sorcery and desire in Henry VIII’s England, where magic, lust, and power are forever intertwined. Growing up as an abandoned outcast on the moors, young Alys’ only company is her cruel foster mother, Morach, the local wise woman who is whispered to practice the dark arts. Alys joins a nunnery to escape the poverty and loneliness she has felt all her life, but all too soon her sanctuary is destroyed. King Henry VIII’s followers burn the holy place to the ground, and Alys only just manages to escape with her life, haunted by the screams of her sisters as they burned to death. She finds work in a castle not far from where she grew up as an old lord’s scribe, where she falls obsessively in love with his son Hugo. But Hugo is already married to a proud woman named Catherine. Driven to desperation by her desire, she summons the most dangerous powers Morach taught her, but quickly the passionate triangle of Alys, Hugo, and Catherine begins to explode, launching them into uncharted sexual waters. The magic Alys has conjured now has a life of its own—a life that is horrifyingly and disastrously out of control. Is she a witch? Since heresy means the stake, and witchcraft the rope, Alys is in mortal danger, treading a perilous path between her faith and her own power.

Mannu Bhandari's genius lies not in elevating women to heroines or superior beings; rather, she forces us to acknowledge that flawed, confused, and self-centered women are as worthy of agency and respect. She wrote among literary giants who were mostly men, but carved a singular space for herself with her unflinching gaze at the hypocrisy of a society that claims to venerate women yet balks at giving them the keys to their shackles. These 18 stories are representative of her wonderful insights into the inner life of women – her characters span the spectrum from rural to urban, illiterate to educated, homemakers to career professionals. Through all the stories runs a vein of gentle mockery – the inimitable Mannu Bhandari style.

How far would you go to find where you belong? Would you cross a continent? An ocean? A universe? Plague and pestilence have come to Ladrehdin. With their worst fears realized, Carin and Verek set out to put right everything that has gone so badly wrong. On the final leg of their quest, they retrace Carin’s journey north from the plains—accompanied this time by the village wisewoman, Megella. Along the way, Meg dredges up—from an increasingly unreliable memory—the oldest of the “old stories,” revealing how the actions of the Ancients continue to menace every life on the Wizards’ World, and beyond. This is Book 3 of a series. Waterspell begins with Books 1–2: The Warlock and The Wysard, and concludes with Book 4: The Witch. Editorial Reviews: "The writing is absolutely fantastic with so much detail and description. The imagery was so vivid that I felt like I could see this mystical world forming around me." —Laura Hartley, What’s Hot? "... a fabulous trilogy that should be read by every fantasy reader who would like something a little different. The author cleverly creates tension without resorting to the battles, complex political intrigue and predictable structure favoured by many in the traditional fantasy genre. I give it 5 stars without hesitation." —Tahlia Newland "This book keeps you enthralled until the final sentence. Such a wonderful ending. Carin and Verek are such rounded and full characters. Hope to see them again soon." —Kim Durbin
