When Addie La Rue makes a pact with the devil, she is convinced she’s found a loophole—immortality in exchange for her soul.

Addie flees her tiny home town in 18th-Century France, beginning a journey that takes her across the world, learning to live a life where no one remembers her and everything she owns is lost and broken. Existing only as a muse for artists throughout history, she learns to fall in love anew every single day.   Her only companion on this journey is her dark devil with hypnotic green eyes, who visits her each year on the anniversary of their deal. Alone in the world, Addie has no choice but to confront him, to understand him, maybe to beat him.   Until one day, in a second hand bookshop in Manhattan, Addie meets someone who remembers her.

The child’s name is Fitz, and he is despised.Raised in the castle stables, only the company of the king’s fool, the ragged children of the lower city, and his unusual affinity with animals provide Fitz with any comfort.To be useful to the crown, Fitz is trained as an assassin; and to use the traditional magic of the Farseer family. But his tutor, allied to another political faction, is determined to discredit, even kill him. Fitz must survive: for he may be destined to save the kingdom.","brand":"HarperCollins Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45113974456608,"sku":"9780007562251","price":8.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9780007562251.jpg?v=1767640464"},{"product_id":"babel-r-f-kuang-9780008501853","title":"Babel","description":"THE #2 SUNDAY TIMES AND #1 NYT BESTSELLER‘One for Philip Pullman fans’THE TIMES‘This one is an automatic buy’GLAMOUR‘Ambitious, sweeping and epic’EVENING STANDARD‘Razor-sharp’DAILY MAIL‘An ingenious fantasy about empire’GUARDIANTraduttore, traditore: An act of translation is always an act of betrayal.Oxford, 1836.The city of dreaming spires.It is the centre of all knowledge and progress in the world.And at its centre is Babel, the Royal Institute of Translation.

The Way of Kings begins The Stormlight Archive.\nSpeak again the ancient oaths:\nLife before death.\nStrength before weakness.\nJourney before Destination.\nReturn to men the Shards they once bore.\nThe Knights Radiant must stand again.\nRoshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter.\nIt has been centuries since the fall of the ten consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor that transform ordinary men into near-invincible warriors. Men trade kingdoms for Shardblades. Wars were fought for them, and won by them.\nOne such war rages on a ruined landscape called the Shattered Plains. There, Kaladin, who traded his medical apprenticeship for a spear to protect his little brother, has been reduced to slavery. In a war that makes no sense, where ten armies fight separately against a single foe, he struggles to save his men and to fathom the leaders who consider them expendable.\nBrightlord Dalinar Kholin commands one of those other armies. Like his brother, the late king, he is fascinated by an ancient text called The Way of Kings. Troubled by over-powering visions of ancient times and the Knights Radiant, he has begun to doubt his own sanity.\nAcross the ocean, an untried young woman named Shallan seeks to train under an eminent scholar and notorious heretic, Dalinar's niece, Jasnah. Though she genuinely loves learning, Shallan's motives are less than pure. As she plans a daring theft, her research for Jasnah hints at secrets of the Knights Radiant and the true cause of the war.\nReaders love The Way of Kings:\n'A masterpiece series in epic fantasy' Novel Notions\n'It's multi-POV, action-packed, heartfelt, exciting, thrilling' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐\n'The story is mind-blowing' Goodreads Reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐\n'[It's] elevated the art of storytelling to a different league' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐\n'Introduces a series that will change the history of Fantasy' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐\n'I really wish I could give The Way of Kings a sixth star' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐\nOther books by Brandon Sanderson\nThe Cosmere\nThe Stormlight Archive\nThe Way of Kings\nWords of Radiance\nEdgedancer (Novella)\nOathbringer\nRhythm of War\nWind and Truth\nThe Mistborn Saga\nMistborn\nThe Well of Ascension\nThe Hero of Ages\nThe Alloy of Law\nShadows of Self\nThe Bands of Mourning\nThe Lost Metal","brand":"Orion Publishing Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48609765720352,"sku":"9781399622066","price":14.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781399622066.jpg?v=1768428634"},{"product_id":"jujutsu-kaisen-vol-22-gege-akutami-9781974743414","title":"Jujutsu Kaisen, Vol. 22","description":"To gain the power he needs to save his friend from a cursed spirit, Yuji Itadori swallows a piece of a demon, only to find himself caught in the midst of a horrific war of the supernatural!\nA mysterious cursed spirit with a grudge against Maki flies into Sakurajima Colony.

Ever since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat over thirty years ago keeping busy has helped her cope.

In fact, she would be the first to point out that there is no such thing.\nBut it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute take a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans, the lonely, brilliant, Nobel-Prize-nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with - of all things - her mind.\nLike science, life is unpredictable. Forced to leave her job at the institute, Elizabeth Zott soon finds herself the reluctant star of America's most beloved cooking show, Supper at Six. Elizabeth's unusual approach to cooking ('Combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride') proves revolutionary.\nBut as her following grows, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out, Elizabeth Zott isn't just teaching women to cook.\nShe's daring them to change the status quo.
