This is the casewrap-hardcover version of the 2nd in a series of 4 books and is the sequel to 'The Fantastic Journey', published by Arima, available from their website or from Amazon, ISBN 978-1-84549-311-0. The 3rd: 'The Haunting of Eddie Compton' is also available from Lulu.com, as is the 4th: 'Heaven on Earth'. 'Anywhere And Nowhere' is a tale of fantasy and adventure. It is 1963, and friends Len and Eddie have each received a special gift through the post. They are then taken on fantastic journeys from their home in Fenton-on-Sea. In the end the boys find it difficult to distinguish between fantasy and reality. 'Anywhere And Nowhere' is a good family read and is suitable for most ages, particularly if the reader seeks the nostalgia of England and, particularly, East Anglia, in the early sixties when 13-year-old-boys still dreamed of traditional adventure. The author is a retired Deputy Headteacher of a boys' Grammar School and lives on the Lincolnshire coast.
After the death of his father, a literature professor is drawn into the murder investigation of a bookstore owner... Though Don and his father both love books, their tastes couldn't be more different. Don is a scholar, and his father reads nothing but schlock. His house is full of dime paperbacks, battered thrillers, and case after case of western novels, none of which his son could ever bear to read. At his father's funeral, Don is approached by a strange man, a rare book dealer named Lou Caledonia. Don assumes the man wants to buy his dad's old westerns, but Lou explains that something far more important is on the line. Don finds the cramped confines of Lou's used bookstore immensely comforting, but a surprise waits for him downstairs. Caledonia has been shot dead, and Don is in danger, too. The boy who was too smart to read pulp fiction is about to find himself trapped in a thriller of his own.

Bluecoat is a unique and much-loved Liverpool institution, its oldest city centre building. This book tells the fascinating story of its transformation from charity school to contemporary arts centre, the UK's first. Its early 18th century origins shed light on the religious and maritime mercantile environment of the growing port, whose merchants supported the school. Echoes from then are revealed in themes explored by artists in the 20th century, including slavery and colonial legacies. The predominant focus is on an inclusive building for the arts, starting with colourful bohemian society, the Sandon, who established an artistic colony in 1907, hosting significant exhibitions by the Post-I...

Life happens at the intersection of faith and culture. Whether we are Christians or not, we all have some narrative about the way the world ought to be that shapes how we view the world and live our lives. In this book, Anthony Bradley explores those intersections in ways that analyze and direct our imaginations toward the best practices that lead to human flourishing. Economics, political philosophy, sociology, psychology, and theology are just a few of the disciplines used in an attempt to make sense of a world where things are not the way they are supposed to be. Something does seem strange about the world, but we are not left without tools and principles that we need to make life work at the intersections of faith and culture. The aim of Something Seems Strange is to provide a model of thinking about life at those intersections, so that people can lively freely according to their God-given design.
