A fiery explosion
shatters a laboratory building in Paris. Among the dead is
Emile
Chambord, one of the leaders in the global race to create a
molecular - or DNA - computer. Unfortunately, Professor
Chambord
kept the details of his work secret, and his notes were
apparently
destroyed in the fire. Then suddenly US fighter jets disappear
from
radar screens for a full five minutes and there's no
explanation;
utilities cease to function; and all telecommunications
abruptly
stop, with devastating consequences. This is not the work of a
clever hacker - only the enormous power and speed of a DNA
computer
could have caused such havoc. Covert-One agent Jon Smith flies
to
Paris to investigate. Following a trail that leads him across
two
continents, he uncovers a web of deception that threatens to
re-shape the world for ever

The
Great War for
Civilisation:
The Conquest of the
Middle East |
by: R
obert
Fisk |
Decorated British
foreign
correspondent Robert Fisk has been based in the Middle East for
the
last twenty-five years, reporting from the world's worst
trouble-spots. This is his first-person account of fifty years
of
bloodshed and tragedy in the area, from the Palestinian-Israeli
bloodbath to the shock and awe of the recent war against Iraq.
The
Great War for Civilisation is written with passion and anger, a
reporter's eyewitness account of the Middle East's history. All
the
most dangerous men of the past quarter century in the region --
from
Osama bin Laden to Ayatollah Khomeini, from Saddam to Ariel
Sharon
-- come alive in these pages. Fisk has met most of them, and
even
spent the night out at a guerrilla camp with bin Laden himself.
In a
narrative of blood and mass killing, Fisk tells the story of
the
growing hatred of the West by millions of Muslims, the West's
cynical support for the Middle East's most ruthless dictators
and
America's ever more powerful military presence in the world's
most
dangerous lands as well as its uncritical, unconditional
support for
Israel's occupation of Palestinian land. It is also a story of
journalists at war, of the rage, humour and frustration of the
correspondents who spend their lives reporting the first draft
of
history, their weaknesses and cowardice, their courage and
truth-telling. |

The City of London
in the
1990s is a dark, adrenaline- charged square mile deep in
recession,
where sex is just another commodity and keeping one's integrity
is a
daily struggle. Gavin Blake is riding high. He's up to his neck
in
money, sex and sleaze, but he's young, and handsome and he's
making
a lot of money. Carta Graham wants nothing more than to forget
her
life as a high- flying lawyer, so she's buried herself in a
fund-raising project for the City Church of St Benet's. When
she
meets Gavin, she thinks the only thing they share is a
temporary
sexual attraction, but she's wrong. They are about to change
each
other's lives forever. For Gavin comes to see that in order to
survive he must escape from the harrowing world he inhabits.
His
fight for freedom will be hard and fierce, but Carta, searching
for
her own freedom from the past, is with him every step of the
way.

From the bestselling
author of "Tommy and Redcoat", a magnificent and rich history
of the
British soldier in India from Clive to the end of empire,
making
full use of personal accounts of soldiers who served in the
vast and
varied nation that made up the jewel in Britain's imperial
crown.
"Sahib" is a broad and sweeping military history of the British
soldier in India, but its focus, like that of "Tommy and
Redcoat"
before it, is on the men who served in India and the women who
followed them across that vast and dusty continent, bore their
children, and, all too often, mopped their brows as they died.
The
book begins with the remarkable story of India's rise from
commercial enclave to great Empire, from Clive's victory of
Plassey,
through the imperial wars of the eighteenth century and the
Afghan
and Sikh Wars of the 1840s, through the bloody turmoil of the
Mutiny, and the frontier campaigns at the century's end. With
its
focus on the experience of ordinary soldiers, "Sahib" explains
to us
why soldiers of the Raj had joined the army, how they got to
India
and what they made of it when they arrived. The book examines
Indian
soldiering in peace and war, from Kipling's 'snoring barrack
room'
to storming parties assaulting mighty fortresses, cavalry
swirling
across open plains, and khaki columns inching their way between
louring hills. Making full use of extensive and often neglected
archive material in the India Office Library and National Army
Museum, "Sahib" does for the British soldier in India - whether
serving a local ruler, forming part of the Indian army, or
soldiering with a British regiment - what "Tommy" did for the
ordinary soldier in the First World War.

Hidden in the heart
of
the old city of Barcelona is the 'cemetery of lost books', a
labyrinthine library of obscure and forgotten titles that have
long
gone out of print. To this library, a man brings his
10-year-old son
Daniel one cold morning in 1945. Daniel is allowed to choose
one
book from the shelves and pulls out 'La Sombra del Viento' by
Julian
Carax. But as he grows up, several people seem inordinately
interested in his find. Then, one night, as he is wandering the
old
streets once more, Daniel is approached by a figure who reminds
him
of a character from La Sombra del Viento, a character who turns
out
to be the devil. This man is tracking down every last copy of
Carax's work in order to burn them. What begins as a case of
literary curiosity turns into a race to find out the truth
behind
the life and death of Julian Carax and to save those he left
behind.
A page-turning exploration of obsession in literature and love,
and
the places that obsession can lead.

London, 1593: It is
three
weeks before the murder of Christopher Marlowe, playwright and
spy
in Queen Elizabeth I's secret service -- a crime that remains
unsolved to this day. Marlowe is hoping to find his missing
muse as
he sets off on a new intelligence assignment...and closes in on
the
secret that will seal his fate. New York City, present day:
Renaissance scholar turned private eye Kate Morgan investigates
a
shocking heist and murder involving a mysterious, antique
manuscript
recently unearthed in central London. What secret lurks in
those
yellowed, ciphered pages...and how, centuries later, could it
drive
someone to kill? Propelling us from the shadows of the
sixteenth-century underworld to the chambers of a clandestine
U.S.
intelligence unit, from the glitter of the Elizabethan court to
the
catacombs of ancient Rome, The Intelligencer's dual narratives
twist, turn, and collide as they race toward a stunning
finale. |

From the bestselling
author of "Rifles", the remarkable lives - and battles - of ten
of
Britain's greatest generals. Mark Urban tells the story of ten
exceptional soldiers who left their mark on Britain and the
world.
Some - including Wellington, Kitchener and Montgomery - are
names
etched in the national mythology. Others are more obscure
figures
whose achievements or failures may have had consequences quite
different to those they had intended: the incompetence of one
British General led to the creation of the United States of
America,
the ideas of another to the invention of Blitzkreig. All ten of
these generals revealed either a brilliant ability or a fatal
flaw.
While one became Prime Minister, another was beheaded. Success
or
failure depended largely on their ability to work within
Britain's
Parliamentary democracy - and against tyrants, despots and
emperors
who were often free to act alone.

Suleiman the
Magnificent,
most celebrated of the Ottoman sultans, kept Europe at bay for
nearly half a century. Known as "The Shadow of God on Earth,"
but
also the expert politician and all-powerful despot, Suleiman
ruled
the state firmly with the help of his viziers. Since, he
believed,
God had invested him with power, he felt obliged to ensure
justice
and see to the well-being of his subjects. He extended the
borders
of the empire beyond what any of the Ottoman sultans had
achieved,
and yet it is as a lawgiver that he is remembered in the
history of
the Turks. |
