Praise for Death on Delos"Excellent.&#160;Once again, Corby combines an ingenious whodunit with convincing period detail. This humorous and educational ancient historical series gets better and better with each entry.&#8203;"&#160;&mdash;Publishers Weekly,&#160;Starred Review&#160;"Refreshingly original...There&rsquo;s so much to admire here: Corby seamlessly works in Greek myths and history; the details of everyday life, like rituals, coins, and food, are part of the fabric of the mystery; and Nicolaos and Diotima&rsquo;s witty, sexy relationship seems like a BCE version of Nick and Nora Charles. Another outstanding entry in a consistently excellent series."&mdash;Booklist, Starred Review"In his brisk seventh mystery set in the world of ancient Greece, Corby highlights the crackling chemistry between the two leads and provides another helpful, amusing list of characters that includes a description of and a quotation from each of them."&mdash;Kirkus Reviews"&#8203;The amalgamation of energetic action, amusing characters, and fascinating story lines based on accessible and absorbing historical facts will delight new and old fans alike.

Michael Gear's&#160;vivid, compulsively readable prose.&#160; A terrific new science-fiction series; Gear hits a home run right out of the park and all the way to Capella.&rdquo; &mdash;Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of&#160;Quantum Night&#160;&ldquo;A marginal colony on a living world---where human life and human will are tested to the limits.&#160;An intriguing and inventive new work&#160;from Michael Gear, first of a trilogy.

“This book is a very nice contribution to the subject of Topological Data Analysis. In this slim volume, the novice will find a collection of main results with their proofs and many references; additionally, experts will see persistence developed more generally than usual using measure theory. … There are many synthesizing comments throughout the text to help the reader put the material in context, and the writing itself is lucid.” (Michele Intermont, MAA Reviews, October, 2017)“This monograph develops the theory of persistence modules over the real line in a manner that is well-motivated, accessible, thorough, and self-contained.” (Henry Hugh Adams, Mathematical Reviews, October, 2017)“This book offers an excellent introduction to anyone interested in understanding the fundamentals of persistent homology. The exposition is clear, concise and easy to read. … A fair overview of similar results appearing elsewhere is given, and an extensive list of suggested further reading is provided for the inspired reader. … In short, the book offers a self-contained introduction to topics such as persistence modules, persistence diagrams, interleavings, and the famous algebraic stability theorem.” (Magnus Bakke Botnan, zbMATH, 2017)“This monograph develops the theory of persistence modules over the real line in a manner that is well-motivated, accessible, thorough, and self-contained. …  In this monograph, the theory of persistence modules over the reals is presented from scratch, with the main results and their proofs in a natural framework that is convenient to learn and to use.” (Henry Hugh Aams, Mathematical Reviews, 2017)

"Both linguists and learners of English will profit from consulting the new edition of this well-established dictionary - a truly reliable and state-of-the-art reference work by two leading experts in the field of British and American pronunciation." Heinrich Ramisch, University of Bamberg, Germany

&ldquo;[Hunt] conjures the Antarctic convincingly not only in terms of the colors, shapes and textures of the place and its wildlife but also in its vastness and implacable indifference to human life and the passage of time."&mdash;The New York Times "A fascinating story of lives stripped bare...and the decisions and their consequences that make us what we are."&mdash;The Observer&ldquo;Switching back and forth between the centuries, Rebecca Hunt unfolds these parallel stories with great verve. Her careful control of the narratives and dramatic pacing keeps the tension in each story escalating. She conjures the Antarctic convincingly not only in terms of the colors, shapes and textures of the place and its wildlife but also in its vastness and implacable indifference to human life and the passage of time.&rdquo;&mdash;The New York Times Book Review"Nothing short of stunning: an adventure story, a psychological investigation of physical and mental breakdown, and a remarkable account of weather and endeavor."&mdash;The Guardian&#160;&ldquo;It&rsquo;s a remarkable, terrifying, physiological thriller full of natural description so accurate you&rsquo;ll check your face for frostbite [...] A frightfully accurate portrait of men and women pushed to the brink of physical and mental anguish, &ldquo;Everland&rdquo; is a work that hits like a sudden winter storm, striking you breathless with its power, horror, and beauty.&rdquo;&mdash;The Gazette"The horrors of hunger, thirst and frostbite are grotesquely vivid. Most arresting of all is the mental turmoil, which moves from bitchy frustration to full-blown delirium via hope, despair, delusion and guilt with terrifying authenticity."&mdash;The Telegraph&#160;

'It is the history of a revolution that went wrong - and of the excellent
excuses that were forthcoming at every step for the perversion of the original doctrine,' wrote Orwell in the
original blurb for the first edition of 'Animal Farm' in 1945. His simple and tragic fable, telling what happens when the
animals drive out Mr Jones and attempt to run their farm themselves, has since become a world-famous classic
of English prose.

Praise for Mayumi and The Sea of Happiness"Mayumi&rsquo;s trespasses and thrills are so deeply imagined that I lived her affair with her, cheering her even as I knew I would drown with her in her ecstasy. This book&rsquo;s fierce physicality glitters beneath the surface of every heady sentence.&rdquo;&mdash;Susanna Daniel, author of Stilsville and Sea Creatures &#160; &ldquo;Jennifer Tseng delivers an elegant exploration of passion and its consequences while casting her observant eye on motherhood, memory, exile, and female friendship. Carnal, witty, and slyly crafted, Mayumi and the Sea of Happiness is a sizzling fuse of a novel, with an explosion bigger and better than anything you can imagine.&rdquo;&mdash;Sara Levine, author of Treasure Island!!!"This is a confession that reads like an exultation, and Mayumi&rsquo;s gleeful admissions will likely keep the reader turning pages at the kind of speed that inspires papercuts.&rdquo;&mdash;The Seattle Review of Books&#160; &ldquo;The love scenes don't lack for erotic description and detail, and Mayumi's obsessive admiration for the young man swings between coolly perceptive and discomfitingly overheated. But the precision and poetry of Tseng's writing keep the book from meandering too far in the direction [of pure romance]...Tseng explores time and place, isolation and connection, and veers more toward the lyrical than the lurid.&rdquo;&mdash;Kirkus Reviews
