Shadeward: Emanation by Drew Wagar
A world of eternal day and everlasting night, burning deserts and frozen wastes. A people exiled, seeking the truth about their past, long lost in vague, yet disturbing, myth and legend. Technology lost, then found again.
A realm of priestesses with remarkable powers and implacable purpose, who worship a powerful god; a star that blazes unchanging in the skies above. A star which is poised to unleash devastation upon them all. Two Children are smuggled out of Scallia to save them from the feared witches of Drayden, but the ‘rescue’ doesn’t go well. Cast adrift with no memories of each other or their real family, both grow to adolescence friendless and destitute. All that stands between them and brutal early deaths are the talents they barely know they possess... and can’t control.
Drew is donating 10% of the proceeds of this book to the March Wood Project, whose work involves rehabilitating teenagers among the beautiful woodlands of Kent.

Fragments of Joy and Sorrow by Alan Wakeman
Introducing: Fragments of Joy and Sorrow - Memoir of a reluctant revolutionary by Alan Wakeman
Has anyone ever written so lightly, so gracefully, of a long life? At odds again and again with prevailing opinion, whether as vegan or pioneer in English-language teaching or participant in Gay Liberation, the late Alan Wakeman lived half his life in Soho, London's famous residential district beside Piccadilly Circus. He tells of his great, tragic love-affair and a later extraordinary friendship with his lover's grown-up American son.
Broken into individual 'fragments' this memoir distils the most exciting, life-changing, heart- breaking and sexuality-affirming moments of Alan's life. Each 'fragment' of raw experience is followed by brief musings based on his nearly eight decades of experience!
