The Snow Child	Headline Publishing
Автор: Ivey Eowyn Издательство: Headline Publishing, 2012	DjVu, 448 страниц, 17.92 МБ 7 Оценка:
A bewitching tale of heartbreak and hope set in 1920s Alaska. Jack and Mabel have staked everything on making a fresh start for themselves in a homestead 'at the world's edge' in the raw Alaskan wilderness. But as the days grow shorter, Jack is losing his battle to clear the land, and Mabel can no longer contain her grief for the baby she lost many years before. The evening the first snow falls, their mood unaccountably changes. In a moment of tenderness, the pair are surprised to find themselves building a snowman — or rather a snow girl — together. The next morning, all trace of her has disappeared, and Jack can't quite shake the notion that he glimpsed a small figure — a child? — running through the spruce trees in the dawn light. And how to explain the little but very human tracks Mabel finds at the edge of their property? Written with the clarity and vividness of the Russian fairytale from which it takes its inspiration, The Snow Child is an instant classic — the story of a couple who take a child into their hearts, all the while knowing they can never truly call her their own.

Living History	Headline Publishing
Автор: Clinton Hillary Rodham Издательство: Headline Publishing, 2004	DjVu, 592 страницы, 23.68 МБ 5 Оценка:
Hillary Clinton's memoir focuses on her eight years at the White House — what she lived through, how she felt about her experiences then and now, why she made the choices she did — in short, a very personal book. She talks about all the political events and highlights and about Bill Clinton's impeachment. She feels it is time to put the record straight on many issues on which she has not been able to speak out. The book covers her principal areas of interest such as the welfare of children, the status of women internationally and social justice. This is a woman whose steely resolve and intelligence proved the bedrock of her husband's presidency and whose courage when he let her down impressed women everywhere. Her determination to succeed in her own right provides a powerful role model.

Anansi Boys	Headline Publishing
Автор: Gaiman Neil Издательство: Headline Publishing, 2006	PDF, 480 страниц, 14.40 МБ 8 Оценка:
Fat Charlie Nancy is not actually fat. He was fat once but he is definitely not fat now. No, right now Fat Charlie Nancy is angry, confused and more than a little scared — right now his life is spinning out of control, and it is all his dad's fault. If his rotter of an estranged father hadn't dropped dead at a karaoke night, Charlie would still be blissfully unaware that his dad was Anansi the spider god. He would have no idea that he has a brother called Spider, who is also a god. And there would be no chance that said brother would be trying to take over his life, flat and fiancee, or, to make matters worse, be doing a much better job of it than him. Desperate to reclaim his life, Charlie enlists the help of four more-than-slightly eccentric old ladies and their unique brand of voodoo — and between them they unleash a bitter and twisted force to get rid of Spider. But as darkness descends and badness begins is Fat Charlie Nancy going to get his life back in one piece or is he about to enter a whole netherworld of pain?

The Ocean at the End of the Lane	Headline Publishing
Автор: Gaiman Neil Издательство: Headline Publishing, 2014	PDF, 260 страниц, 7.80 МБ 8 Оценка:
THE OCEAN AT THE END OF THE LANE is a fable that reshapes modern fantasy: moving, terrifying and elegiac — as pure as a dream, as delicate as a butterfly's wing, as dangerous as a knife in the dark — from storytelling genius Neil Gaiman. It began for our narrator forty years ago when the family lodger stole their car and committed suicide in it, stirring up ancient powers best left undisturbed. Dark creatures from beyond this world are on the loose, and it will take everything our narrator has just to stay alive: there is primal horror here, and menace unleashed — within his family and from the forces that have gathered to destroy it. His only defence is three women, on a farm at the end of the lane. The youngest of them claims that her duckpond is an ocean. The oldest can remember the Big Bang.

Seize the Night	Headline Publishing
Автор: Koontz Dean Издательство: Headline Publishing, 1999	PDF, 480 страниц, 14.40 МБ 8 Оценка:
Moonlight Bay, California. A safe, secluded small town that is at its most picturesque in the gentle night-times that inspired its name. Now, somewhere in the night, children are disappearing. The police cannot be trusted since they were long ago corrupted by a greater authority, hidden behind the supposedly shuttered walls of the adjacent military base, Fort Wyvern. Christopher Snow, victim of a rare genetic disorder that leaves him dangerously vulnerable to light, believes the lost children are still alive and is convinced the disappearances have everything to do with the catastrophic effects of secret research conducted deep within Fort Wyvern. Forced to live in the shadows, he knows the night world better than anyone, and sets out to find the missing five-year-old son of a former sweetheart. Never before in Dean Koontz's phenomenal writing career has he created a character quite like Christopher Snow — a creation so complex, so fascinating that the author has felt compelled to return to him. Readers of Fear Nothing already know why. Those who meet him for the first time in Seize the Night will soon join leagues of others whose imaginations have been touched by this unique character and the extraordinarily eerie world of Moonlight Bay.
