V rámci koterie, tvořené princem Dutifulem, jeho starým učitelem Chadem a prostoduchým, leč v Umění silným Thickem, pracuje FitzChivalry na tom, aby podpořil prince na výpravě, která by mohla definitivně nastolit mír mezi Šesti vévodstvími a Ostrovy – a získat princi ruku narčesky Ellianie. Narčeska totiž pověřila prince nepochopitelným úkolem: setnout draka – legendárního Icefyrea – uvízlého v ledu na Aslevjal Islandu. Avšak ne všechny klany Ostrovanů podporují princovu snahu setnout hlavu jejich legendárnímu ochránci. Vězí za pánovitým požadavkem narčesky temné síly?

Ačkoli je do hloubi duše zasažen ztrátou svého vlčího druha Nighteyese, Fitz se musí usadit na Buckkeepu a vrátit se k povinnostem Chadeova učně. V přestrojení za Toma Badgerlocka, strážce lorda Goldena, FitzChivalry špehuje za hradními zdmi. A jelikož jeho starý učitel chřadne, Fitz je nucen převzít na svá bedra další břemena, zatímco se snaží vyvést království z osidel občanské války, k níž má každým dnem blíž. Princ Dutiful se zasnoubí s narčeskou Ellianií z Ostrovů, ale jeho život provází neustále napětí a narčeska samotná se zdá skrývat četná tajemství. Naštěstí má po svém boku Fitze, který se mu snaží být zároveň přítelem, učitelem a otcem, ale současně mu nesmí vyzradit svou pravou identitu. Vedle mnoha svých problémů je FitzChivalry, čelící ustavičným výhružkám Piebaldů a přibývajícím perzekucím proti lidem nadaným Moudrstí, nucen zajistit, že nikdo nevyzradí princovo tajemství, které by mohlo vést k pádu farseerovského trůnu: že on, stejně jako Fitz, má v krvi obávanou „zvířecí magii".

In The Beating Heart, Robin Choudhury explores how the heart has been represented over time and across cultures. He investigates the interplay between the heart depictions of successive eras and the prevailing cultural discourse – religious, social, philosophical – of each. In parallel, he considers how the ‘scientific’ understanding of the function of the heart has unfolded over 2,500 years, from the observations of Aristotle, through detailed anatomical descriptions beginning in the Renaissance, to the emergence of experimental physiology in the seventeenth century, culminating in the twentieth in full understanding of the molecular and cellular processes by which the heart beats autonomously.The Beating Heart is a beautifully illustrated journey of discovery across four millennia of human history, in the company of an author whose medical knowledge of the heart is matched by his fascination with the visual arts.

William Dalrymple draws from a lifetime of scholarship to highlight India’s oft-forgotten position as the heart of ancient Eurasia. For the first time, he gives a name to this spread of Indian ideas that transformed the world. From the largest Hindu temple in the world at Angkor Wat to the Buddhism of China, from the trade that helped fund the Roman Empire to the creation of the numerals we use today (including zero), India transformed the culture and technology of its ancient world – and our world today as we know it. Praise for William Dalrymple and The Anarchy‘A superb historian with a visceral understanding of India’ The Times‘Magnificently readable, deeply researched and richly atmospheric’ Francis Wheen, Mail on Sunday

Saving the world is a test no school of magic can prepare you for in the triumphant conclusion to the Sunday Times bestselling trilogy that began with A Deadly Education and The Last Graduate. The one thing you never talk about while you're in the Scholomance is what you'll do when you get out - not even the richest enclaver would tempt fate that way. But that impossible dream has somehow come true for El and her classmates. And what's more, she didn't even have to become the monstrous dark witch she's prophesised to become to make it happen. Instead of killing enclavers, she saved them, and now the world is safe for all wizards. Peace and harmony have enveloped all the enclaves of the world. Just kidding. Instead, someone else has picked up the project of destroying enclaves in El's stead, and everyone she saved is at risk again with a full-scale enclave war on the horizon. And so, the first thing El needs to do after miraculously escaping the Scholomance, is to turn straight around and find a way back in.

We need new ideas to navigate its risks and avoid a globally devastating hot war. In this urgent and necessary book, Robin Niblett argues that only by looking back can we learn the lessons to guide us through this new reality: he goes through the ten ways in which the New Cold War is different and offers five rules for navigating its onset.How we manage this contest will determine not only whether there is still space for international cooperation to deal with our many global challenges, from the climate emergency to the technological revolution, but also who will lead the twenty-first century and, quite simply, the course of all our futures.
