Robert Jordan’s masterful epic fantasy, The Wheel of Time, continues … The Seanchan invasion force is in possession of Ebou Dar. Nynaeve, Elayne and Aviendha head for Caemlyn and Elayne’s rightful throne, but on the way they discover an enemy much worse than the Seanchan. In Illian, Rand vows to throw the Seanchan back as he did once before, although signs of madness are appearing among the Asha’man. Meanwhile, the rebel Aes Sedai under their young Amyrlin, Egwene Al’Vere, face an army that intends to keep them away from The White Tower. But Egwene is determined to unseat the usurper Elaida and reunite the Aes Sedai. She does not yet understand the price that others — and she herself — will pay.

Rand is on the run with Min, but his destination is a mystery to Cadsuane. Mazrim Taim, leader of the Black Tower, is revealed to be a liar, but his purpose remains shrouded in secrecy. Perrin is hunting desperately for Faile, now a prisoner of Sevanna's sept. With Elyas Machera, Berelain, the Prophet, and a very mixed army of disparate forces, he is moving through country rife with bandits and roving Seanchan… while the man called Slayer is stalking the Wolf Dream and Tel'aran'rhiod. In Tar Valon, the schemers and counter-schemers in Elaida's White Tower are shaken to the core when Egwene and the rebels appear suddenly outside the walls. In Ebou Dar, the Seanchan princess known as Daughter of the Nine Moons arrives — and Mat, who has been recuperating in the Tarasin Palace, is introduced to her. Will the marriage that has been foretold come about? Winter's Heart is a triumph of epic storytelling, and a magnificent addition to a landmark series in the fantasy genre.

A little knowledge can be a very dangerous thing. Innocent in the ways of the world, an ingenue when it comes to pop and fashion, the Elect of God of a small but committed Stirlingshire religious cult: Isis Whit is no ordinary teenager. When her cousin Morag — Guest of Honour at the Luskentyrian's four — yearly Festival of Love — disappears after renouncing her faith, Isis is marked out to venture among the Unsaved and bring the apostate back into the fold. But the road to Babylondon (as Sister Angela puts it) is a treacherous one, particularly when Isis discovers that Morag appears to have embraced the ways of the Unsaved with spectacular abandon. Truth and falsehood; kinship and betrayal; 'herbal' cigarettes and compact discs — Whit is an exploration of the techno-ridden barrenness of modern Britain from a unique perspective.

A group of Vietnam Vets who still keep in touch: the Custer Hill Club. They are prepared to attack foreign countries if America is attacked and their current rule is that if an Islamic country attacks America, then all Islamic countries will be nuked — thus deterring Korea, China or other countries having similar ideas against the US. The Custer Hill Club gets more ambitious and aggressive. The men decide to choose an American city to attack themselves, pretending it is an Islamic terrorist attack (either San Francisco or LA, the reader won’t know) in order for them to be able to nuke Mecca, the Aswan Dam and many other places. America will rule the world!
