Far, far in the future, many billions of years after humankind and all other forms of life have gone, when the Universe itself is beginning to fall towards its death, only the Stardragons are left to move across the infinite tracts of space. With breath of nuclear fire and broad wings to harvest the energies of starlight, these creatures are on an epic journey. They know the Universe is dying. They know, too, that once on one particular planet, there lived another dragon race who, before their own extinction, constructed a great edifice holding the key to life. It is to this structure, called Dragonhenge, that the Stardragons are now slowly returning...

Millions of years before the emergence of humankind, the great dragon civilization dominated this world. It left few traces behind save legends and one mighty structure: Dragonhenge. The dragons were profound storytellers, and collected here are tales from their oral mythology. Hugo Award winners pool their talents in Dragonhenge, an illustrated collection of eight tales and a Proem that celebrate the ancient dragon civilization.

As one of the most strikingly original lyricists going, its entirely unsurprising that John Grant has a life-long interest in language and languagesfrom the academic solace he found in his school days upon discovering his talent for German, through to his love of Russian and the Icelandic language of his current home, Grant has found succour, relief and stimulation in words and how they work. In this fascinating interview with the writer Will Burns, John Grants passion for language provides the foundations for hilarious and heartbreaking digressions on his own life, on politics, on history, on music and much moreJohn Grant On Language functions as a compelling and unique portrait of an artist in, and through, words.

Mainstream Christianity has long dealt with unbelievers in an unkind way, ascribing to them an eternity of suffering and torture. While this certainly may be true for some, the vast majority will enjoy a much more merciful fate. In this work I attempt to parse out that which an unbeliever can expect, post mortality, and touch a little on the benefits of believing. This treatise is written for the consumption of both the believer and the unbeliever; each of whom may benefit from a more enlightened understanding (Moroni 7:18).

Change is a constant. You can depend on it. What that change is matters less than how you adapt to it. Change has happened to Pauls world and he is having to adapt. While hes coping with his own adaptation, as the new Bishop of Rome, he must also provide spiritual and emotional support to the members of his congregation and the community as a whole. Paul has a unique ability to think outside the box and his ability has not escaped the notice of some very influential people. Oblivious to the eyes that watch him, he continues doing his thing the best way he knows how. As is the nature of change, it continues to happen without warning, and because of Pauls resilience he takes it all in stride.

This book charts the emergence of a vibrant new type of brand from the emerging markets.

The region which this book covers is the Islamic Interland, taking in interviews with leading brand creators in locations including Istanbul, Beirut, Dubai, Jordan, Jakarta and many others across the Middle and Far East.
