268,95 kr. A collection of funny, brilliant, boundary-pushing stories from the bestselling author of Mammoth. A grizzly bear goes on the run after eating a teenager. A hotel room participates in an unlikely conception. A genetically altered platypus colony puts on an art show. A sabretooth tiger falls for the new addition to his theme park. An airline seat laments its last useful day. A Shakespearean monkey test pilot launches into space. The stories in Here Be Leviathans take us from the storm drains under Las Vegas to the Alaskan wilderness; the rainforests of Queensland to the Chilean coastline. Narrated in Chris Flynn's unique and hilarious style by animals, places, objects and even the (very) odd human, these short fictions push the boundaries of the form by examining human behaviour from the perspective of the outsider.

180,95 kr. Curiosity and disobedience are two of Owain's constant companions. Forbidden by his father, Enniaun, to accompany a Votadini warband's sortie against the Picts, Owain is abducted by the raiders. As a prized hostage, he begins an education and a life-time friendship with Edern, a young Pict, when both are tutored by the wise and mysterious seer, Lailoken. Owain's path takes him to the seat of the High King of Romano-Britain. His military skills are enhanced by a visit to Ambrosius Aurelianus, beyond British shores, and when he finally returns, threats are posed by the Picts in the far north and the newly settled Sais to the south and east. Additional to these dangers, he must also face internal strife among the Romano-British factions.
