The first novel Nabokov wrote while living in America and the most overtly political novel he ever wrote, Bend Sinister is a modern classic. While it is filled with veiled puns and characteristically delightful wordplay, it is, first and foremost, a haunting and compelling narrative about a civilized man caught in the tyranny of a police state. Professor Adam Krug, the country's foremost philosopher, offers the only hope of resistance to Paduk, dictator and leader of the Party of the Average Man. In a folly of bureaucratic bungling and ineptitude, the government attempts to co-opt Krug's support in order to validate the new regime.

The Isle of Faerie is a terrible, glorious, wonderful land. The air is warm, the flowers sweet-smelling… and time no longer means quite what you thought it did. There are broken limbs on the grass, and the rivers want to drown you. Rinaldo Device is stranded in a world where his magic of metal-working means nothing. Without his brother. Without a way home. And the worst secret he’s ever kept is about to come spilling out… Back in London, Flavia and Orlando hurry to put a rescue plan together for Rinaldo and the Gloucester children, but they may already be too late. The Queen of Faerie is out for revenge, and no one can stand in her way. Not even an angry princess, a heartbroken daughter, or a mysterious yellow cat. If you enjoy gaslamp fantasy and faerie Victoriana, you’ll love this third volume in the Sparks & Philtres novella series.

Good Friday, 1612. Two notorious witches await trial and certain death in Lancaster Castle, whilst a small group gathers in secret protest. Into this group the self-made Alice Nutter stakes her claim and swears to fight against the rule of fear. But what is Alice's connection to these witches? What is magic if not power, and what will happen to the women who possess it?
