DOWNLOAD EBOOKNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The specter of graduation looms large as Naomi Novik’s groundbreaking, New York Times bestselling trilogy continues in the stunning sequel to A Deadly Education. “The climactic graduation-day battle will bring cheers, tears, and gasps as the second of the Scholomance trilogy closes with a breathtaking cliff-hanger.”—Booklist (starred review) HUGO AWARD FINALIST • LOCUS AWARD FINALIST • ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Polygon, Thrillist, She Reads In Wisdom, Shelter. That’s the official motto of the Scholomance. I suppose you could even argue that it’s true—only the wisdom is hard to come by, so the shelter’s rather scant. Our beloved school does its best to devour all its students—but now that I’ve reached my senior year and have actually won myself a handful of allies, it’s suddenly developed a very particular craving for me. And even if I somehow make it through the endless waves of maleficaria that it keeps throwing at me in between grueling homework assignments, I haven’t any idea how my allies and I are going to make it through the graduation hall alive. Unless, of course, I finally accept my foretold destiny of dark sorcery and destruction. That would certainly let me sail straight out of here. The course of wisdom, surely. But I’m not giving in—not to the mals, not to fate, and especially not to the Scholomance. I’m going to get myself and my friends out of this hideous place for good—even if it’s the last thing I do. With keen insight and mordant humor, Novik reminds us that sometimes it is not enough to rewrite the rules—sometimes, you need to toss out the entire rulebook. The magic of the Scholomance trilogy continues in The Golden Enclaves

But in this inspiring field guide to dropping out of the attention economy, artist and critic Jenny Odell shows us how we can still win back our lives. Odell sees our attention as the most precious—and overdrawn—resource we have. And we must actively and continuously choose how we use it. We might not spend it on things that capitalism has deemed important … but once we can start paying a new kind of attention, she writes, we can undertake bolder forms of political action, reimagine humankind’s role in the environment, and arrive at more meaningful understandings of happiness and progress. Far from the simple anti-technology screed, or the back-to-nature meditation we read so often, How to do Nothing is an action plan for thinking outside of capitalist narratives of efficiency and techno-determinism. Provocative, timely, and utterly persuasive, this book will change how you see your place in our world.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWar has come to Havaen. After thousands of years, the return of Peresus’ evil to the world has brought with it chaos and destruction, as he seeks to finally complete his quest to conquer the realm. Already, the Aquaron Kingdom has fallen to his seemingly unstoppable might, and it appears only a matter of time before the rest of Havaen follows suit. As Peresus’ vast army begins to sweep across the land, obliterating all in their path, it is clear that even the power of Saberen, the Hero, will not be enough to defeat them. Only by fulfilling the ancient prophecy of the Hero – by uniting the three Sacred Keys and retrieving the Supremos from the Golden Realm – will Saberen have sufficient strength to overcome Peresus and the malevolent forces he commands. But one of the Sacred Keys is currently missing, its location unknown, and Peresus seeks to gain access to the Golden Realm too – to seize the Supremos for himself and use its limitless divine power to at last finish what he started all those millennia ago. To save Havaen, there can only be one outcome. Saberen must succeed, or the world will be plunged into darkness forever...
