<p> <strong>First ever publication of J.R.R. Tolkien's final writings on Middle-earth, covering a wide range of subjects and perfect for those who have read and enjoyed <em>The Silmarillion</em>, <em>The Lord of the Rings</em>, <em>Unfinished Tales</em>, and <em>The History of Middle-earth</em>, and want to learn more about Tolkien's magnificent world.</strong> </p> <p>It is well known that J.R.R. Tolkien published <em>The Hobbit</em> in 1937 and <em>The Lord of the Rings</em> in 1954-5. What may be less known is that he continued to write about Middle-earth in the decades that followed, right up until the years before his death in 1973.</p> <p>For him, Middle-earth was part of an entire world to be explored, and the writings in <em>The Nature of Middle-earth</em> reveal the journeys that he took as he sought to better understand his unique creation. From sweeping themes as complex and profound as the metaphysics of Elvish immortality and reincarnation, and the Powers of the Valar, to the more earth-bound subjects of the lands and beasts of Numenor, the geography of the Rivers and Beacon-hills of Gondor, and even who had beards!</p> <p>This new collection, which has been edited by Carl F Hostetter, one of the world's leading Tolkien experts, is a veritable treasure-trove offering readers a chance to peer over Professor Tolkien's shoulder at the very moment of discovery: and on every page, Middle-earth is once again brought to extraordinary life.</p>

<p> <strong>'Let us now praise Ray Bradbury'</strong><br/><strong> <em>THE TIMES</em> </strong> </p> <p>Bradbury's first story collection is a must-read for any fan of the genre, spinning stardust and cobwebs in its wondrous wake.</p> <p>It contains twenty-seven stories, from science fiction's master storyteller.</p>

<p>The blockbuster danmei/Boys' Love novels from China that inspired the animated Scumbag System series streaming in English! </p><p>This hilarious story of a man reborn as a villain in a fantasy novel series who ends up romancing the male protagonist is now in English, for the very first time. Half-demon Luo Binghe rose from humble beginnings and a tortured past to become unrivaled in strength and beauty. With his harem of over three hundred wives, and dominion over both the human and demonic realms, he is truly the most powerful protagonist-in a trashy web novel series! At least, that's what Shen Yuan, online alias "Peerless Cucumber," believes as he finishes reading the final chapter in Proud Immortal Demon Way.</p><p>But when a combination of rage and a poor meal choice leads to his death, Shen Yuan finds himself reborn into the world of the web novel, in the body of Shen Qingqiu-the beautiful but cruel teacher to a young Luo Binghe. Although as Shen Qingqiu, he now has incredible power and abilities as a cultivator, he's destined to be horrifically punished for crimes against the protagonist, so this new Shen Qingqiu has only one course of action: get into Luo Binghe's good graces before the young man's rise to power. That's the only way he'll escape the awful fate of a true scum villain!</p><p>This Chinese fantasy (xianxia) comedy built around the romanticized love between two men (danmei) has been translated into numerous languages and inspired the animated series Scumbag System, which amassed millions of streaming views--including the English version on YouTube through Tencent Video. As the first novel series by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu to spur a global multimedia franchise, this incredibly fun tale led the way to her future blockbusters in the danmei genre: Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation and Heaven Official's Blessing. </p><p>The Seven Seas English-language edition will include exclusive, all-new covers and interior illustrations from Xiao Tong Kong (Velinxi) and feature a translation by Faelicy (faelicy) &amp; Lily (lily_ocho).</p>
