Andrew Luck came to the NFL with big shoes to fill. The Indianapolis Colts had watched Luck break record after record leading Stanford University's football team to championship games. They chose Luck as their new quarterback to replace Peyton Manning, one of football's modern greats, from their team. Andrew showed that he brought more than luck to the game. This "football nerd" was the son of two lawyers and a pro-football player dad, Oliver Luck. Andrew had graduated at the top of his high school class. He earned as many MVPs on the college field as he did praise from his professors. And in the 2012 NFL season, Luck became the only first-year, number-one draft-pick quarterback, ever, to lead his team to the playoffs. As Luck would have it, this red-hot rookie is just getting started.

For centuries, the Tower of London has been home to a group of famous avian residents: the ravens. Each year they are seen by millions of visitors, and they have become as integral a part of the Tower as its ancient stones. But their role is even more important than that—legend has it that if the ravens should ever leave, the Tower will crumble into dust and great harm will befall the kingdom. The responsibility for ensuring that such a disaster never comes to pass falls to one man: the Ravenmaster. The current holder of the position is Yeoman Warder Christopher Skaife, and in this fascinating, entertaining and touching book he memorably describes the ravens’ formidable intelligence, their idiosyncrasies and their occasionally wicked sense of humour. The Ravenmaster is a compelling, inspiring and irreverent story that will delight and surprise anyone with an interest in British history or animal behaviour.
