All That Is Holy
With the lives of her family and the fate of her soul on the line, Odessa Kusa must battle man and god alike in pursuit of salvation--and revenge. The village of Kalaro is dying. Since the coming of the Gray, food is scarce, plague is everywhere, and babies enter the world choking and dying. Rot has taken over the village houses that stand dilapidated and abandoned. In a bid to save his people, Odessa Kusa's father, Omari, plans to kill one of the Low Gods--a grave sin thought to be nigh impossible for a mortal man--and Odessa is thrilled to be brought along on the hunt. But the ancient boar god Egende is not so easily hunted. When Odessa is injured, her desperate father fills her body with cursed blood magic, damning her soul to Matara's comforting embrace. The terrified villagers cast her out of their community into a cruel, pitiless world. Banished and wild with grief and rage, Odessa sets out in search of a shaman to purge her of the tainted blood and assure her salvation. But

All That is Wicked
Rulloff was a brilliant yet utterly amoral murderer - some have called him a 'Victorian-era Hannibal Lecter' - whose crimes spanned decades, but by 1871 he was captured, chained in a cell - a psychopath holding court while curious 19th-century 'mindhunters' got to work. From alienists (early psychiatrists who tried to analyse the source of his madness) to neurologists (who wanted to dissect his brain) to phrenologists (who analysed the bumps on his head to determine his character), each one thought he held the key to understanding the essential question: is evil born or made? Expanding on her hit podcast, Tenfold More Wicked, acclaimed crime historian Kate Winkler Dawson draws on hundreds of source materials and never-before-shared historical documents to present one of the first glimpses into the mind of a serial killer - a century before the term was coined - through the scientists whose work would come to influence criminal justice for decades to come.

What is to be Done?
What is to be done? This was the question asked by Lenin in 1901 when he was having doubts about the revolutionary capabilities of the Russian working class. 77 years later, Louis Althusser asked the same question. Faced with the tidal wave of May ‘68 and the recurrent hostility of the Communist Party towards the protests, he wanted to offer readers a succinct guide for the revolution to come. Lively, brilliant and engaged, this short text is wholly oriented towards one objective: to organise the working class struggle. Althusser provides a sharp critique of Antonio Gramsci’s writings and of Eurocommunism, which seduced various Marxists at the time. But this book is above all the opportunity for Althusser to state what he had not succeeded in articulating elsewhere: what concrete conditions would need to be satisfied before the revolution could take place. Left unfinished, it is published here in English for the first time.

What Is to Be Done?
This is Lenin's seminal text on social revolution and how to achieve it, published some 16 years before Russia's October 1917 Revolution. His plan to overturn the Czar's ruthless autocratic regime proposes the establishment of a cadre of 'professional revolutionaries' with the necessary skills and experience to counter the regime's secret police. Lenin derides trade unionists as 'wretched amateurs,' arguing that a struggle for simple economic betterment is not enough, nor are patchwork reforms - what is needed is the complete overthrow of the political system. Lenin's 'professional revolutionaries' are not so much 'shock troops' of violent rebellion as educated activists who will awaken the workers' class consciousness, leading them to reject western-style political factions and to work within the Party to achieve the dictatorship of the proletariat. Essential reading for anyone wishing to understand the October Revolution and the ensuing upheavals of the twentieth century.
