It is December 1999 and, as the millennium approaches, all is not well in the Land of the Gods. The deities, engrossed in their petty squabbles, are bored out of their immortal skulls with the hapless earthlings in their charge. So when GOD, the central computer running the universe, offers them the alternative of endless virtual reality games in Mega Retroland, they jump at the chance to shrug off their responsibilities forever. While GOD continues to send streams of inconsequential e-mails, it seems only mighty Jupiter, and his equally powerful consort Juno, are left to care about the disintegration of mortal society. Until Cupid hacks into GOD's mainframe and uncovers a sinister plot, masterminded by the Beast in the Machine. Suddenly the race is on. Are the gods doomed? Or can they fight back in time to save not just themselves, but all of us on Planet Earth?

Recently deserted by his beloved Linda, a lonely, dissolute and strangely paranoid Sam Carpenter is writing his fifth crime novel, The Bronze Bull. And it isn't going well. He has grown attached to one of his characters, Peter Wishart, a dealer in stolen archaeological treasures and his intended murder victim. In order to type the sixth chapter and the obligatory murder, Sam drinks himself into a stupor and eventually passes out. But when he wakes, he finds himself in a very different Edinburgh from the one in which he fell asleep. When he meets a distraught archaeologist who just happens to be the partner of the fictional character murdered in his novel the night before, Sam realizes that his creative imaginings have turned into something very real. As the players in The Bronze Bull reveal more complications than he dreamed possible, Sam needs to identify the murderer if he is ever going to find out what happened to him and how he can get back to his own world in this absorbing mystery.
From a trio of New York Times–bestselling authors, a “quirky charmer . . . an enjoyable paranormal romp that’s definitely not just for dog lovers” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) Abby has just arrived in Summerville, Ohio, with her placid Newfoundland, Bowser. She’s reluctantly inherited her grandmother’s coffee shop, but it’s not long before she’s brewing up trouble in the form of magical baked goods and steaming up her life with an exasperating college professor. And then there’s Daisy, a coder, and her hyperactive Jack Russell, Bailey. Her tightly wound world spins out of control when she discovers the chaos within and meets a mysterious dog trainer whose teaching style is definitely hands-on. Finally there’s Shar, professor of ancient history at Summerville College, who wakes up one morning to find her neurotic dachshund, Wolfie, snarling at an implacable god sitting at her kitchen table, the first thing in her life she hasn’t been able to footnote. What on earth is going on in this unearthly little town? It’s up to Abby, Daisy, and Shar to find out before an ancient goddess takes over Southern Ohio, and they all end up in the apocalyptic doghouse . . . “Equal measures of sexy romance, captivating characters, and clever writing . . . [a] rich cast of quirky secondary characters (including one of the best villainesses ever written) . . . Dogs and Goddesses is absolutely sublime.” —Booklist (starred review)

A selection of fifteen of Ukraine's most important, dynamic and entertaining contemporary writers Under USSR rule, the subject matter and style of literary expression in Ukraine was strictly controlled and censored. But once Ukraine gained independence in 1991 its literary scene flourished, as the moving and delightful poems, essays and extracts collected here show. There are fifteen authors included in this book, both established and emerging, and in this anthology we see them grappling with history and the future, with big questions and small moments. From essays about Chernobyl to poetry about Robbie Williams, from fiction discussing Jimmy Hendrix live in Lviv to underground Ukrainian poetry of the Soviet era, WRITING FROM UKRAINE offers a unique window into a rich culture, a chance to experience a particularly Ukrainian sensibility and to celebrate Ukraine's nationhood, as told by its writers.
