The Amber Spyglass  part 4 of 5  
The Amber Spyglass  part 5 of 5  
******The Amber Spyglass brings the intrigue of The Golden Compass and The Subtle Knife 
to a heart-stopping end, marking the final volume of His Dark Materials 
                                                                    as the most powerful of the trilogy.

Along with the return of Lyra, Will, Mrs. Coulter, Lord Asriel, Dr. Mary Malone, 
and Iorek Byrnison the armored bear, come a host of new characters: the Mulefa, 
mysterious wheeled creatures with the power to see Dust; Gallivespian Lord Roke, 
a hand-high spymaster to Lord Asriel; and Metatron, a fierce and mighty angel. 
So, too, come startling revelations: the painful price Lyra must pay to walk through 
the land of the dead, the haunting power of Dr. Malone's amber spyglass, and the names 
of who will live--and who will die--for love. And all the while, war rages with the 
Kingdom of Heaven, a brutal battle that--in its shocking outcome--will uncover the secret of Dust. 
Philip Pullman deftly brings the cliff-hangers and mysteries of His Dark Materials to an 
earth shattering conclusion--and confirms his fantasy trilogy as an undoubted and enduring classic.

Tales From the Perilous Realm 1.4  by JRR Tolkien  - Farmer Giles of Ham
Tales From the Perilous Realm 2.4 - Smith Of Wotton Major
Tales From the Perilous Realm 3.4 - The Adventures Of Tom Bombadil
Tales From the Perilous Realm 4.4 - Leaf By Niggle 
******For the first time in A-format, the definitive collection of Tolkien's four acclaimed modern 
classic 'fairie' tales in the vein of The Hobbit. Farmer Giles of Ham is fat and unheroic, 
but -- having unwittingly managed to scare off a short-sighted giant -- is called upon to 
do battle when the dragon Chrysophylax comes to town; The Adventures of Tom Bombadil 
tells by way of verse of Tom's many adventures with hobbits, princesses, dwarves and trolls; 
Leaf by Niggle recounts the strange adventures of the painter Niggle who sets out to paint the 
perfect tree; Smith of Wootton Major journeys to the Land of Faery thanks to the magical 
ingredients of the Great Cake of the Feast of Good Children. The four tales are written with the 
same skill, quality and hallmarks that made Tolkien's Hobbit a classic. Largely overlooked 
because of their short lengths, they are finally together in a volume which reaffirms Tolkien's 
place as a master storyteller for readers young and old.




The Midas Plague by Frederik Pohl
******A short story about a world in which the "poor" are required
to consume goods, and the "rich" do not have quotas for

         first published in 1991.

******This is the tale of a Victorian time traveler who creates a machine which takes him 
800,000 years into the future, to a divided world of innocence and knowledge.








The Wonderful Visit by H G Wells 
******Most of the inhabitants of Sidderton were asleep that night so they never knew what 
had happened. Some might have guessed from the howling wind of the previous day, 
one or two heard its noise, but no one actually saw it. If they had they might have been 
more prepared for what was to follow. At first they thought those who reported sightings 
of the Strange Bird the next morning had gone mad, or were drunk. But they soon got 
used to the idea - for since that night, Sidderton would never be the same again.



Torchwood - Asylum
Torchwood - Golden Age  
Torchwood - Lost Souls by Joseph Lidster  
Torchwood - The Dead Line  
******"Somewhere out there in that chaos of darkness and light, of science and protons,

                                             somewhere there's an answer."


WE 1.2  by Yevgeny Zamyatin
WE 2.2
******Zamiatin's satirical novel. It documents a society where citizens are known 
only as he-numbers and she-numbers, who believe that their totally limited existence, 
                                                 under the watchful eye of the benefactor, is the ideal way to live.
