"Marcus Americanius Scriptor's memoirs of the war between every parallel universe where Rome never fell, and every parallel universe where Hitler won the Second World War, have long been regarded as the definitive account of that turbulent time.Scriptor's life story, from his early life among the housesteads of an obscure province to his role in the ultimate confrontation with Nazism, was intimately connected with the major political and social developments of his time. His highly personal record of events was praised even in his own lifetime for its honesty and intimacy, as well for capturing the scale of a war that consumed thousands of worlds"--P. [4] of cover.

The Fourth Edition of AHistory amends and vastly expands (by about 40%) the work of Third Edition, continuing to incorporate the whole of Doctor Who into a single timeline. All told, AHistory Fourth Edition takes about 2000 (!!!!!) full-length Doctor Who stories and dates them in a single chronology -- starting with the Universe's origins and working its way forward to the end of time. Volume 3 (of 3) of this series includes the universe's Future section -- from 2018 to its final, sputtering heat death.

In Space Helmet for a Cow 2, Paul Kirkley (Doctor Who Magazine, Radio Times, SFX) continues his witty and irreverent history of Doctor Who, from the wilderness years of the 1990s - when the 30th anniversary special was so bad, it didn't even go straight to video - to its triumphant 50th birthday celebrations, when every single person in the world sat down to watch Doctor Who together (except Christopher Eccleston, who was busy).It's the book that answers such burning questions as: Did Benny and Björn from Abba really plan a Torchwood musical called Weevil Rock You? Which Doctors shared a bed? Did Blue Peter and Sad Tony eventually find love? How did David Tennant become his own father-in-law? And was there really a sequel to Carnival of Monsters at Wembley Arena, or did we dream it?

In About Time, the whole of Doctor Who is examined through the lens of the real-world social and political changes as well as ongoing developments in television production that influenced the series in ways big and small over the course of a generation. Volume 9 of this series finishes out the revamped Doctor Who starring David Tennant, covering Series 4, the 2009 Specials and extras such as the animated story Dreamland.

In Indistinguishable from Magic, more than 60 essays by New York Times-bestselling author Catherynne M. Valente (The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland, The Girl Who Fell Beneath Fairyland) are brought together in print for the first time, sharing Cat's observations and insights about fairy tales and myths, pop culture, gender and race issues, an amateur's life on planet Earth and much more. Join Cat as she studies the fantasy genre's inner clockwork to better comprehend its infatuation with medievalism (AKA dragon bad, sword pretty), considers the undervalued importance of the laundry machine to women's rights in locales as wide-ranging as Japan and the steampunk genre, and comes to understand that so much of shaping fantasy works is about making puppets seem real and sympathetic (otherwise, you're just playing with dolls). Also featured: Cat takes a hard look at why she can't stop writing about Persephone, dwells upon the legacy of poets in Cleveland, and examines how stories teach us how to survive - if Gretel can kill the witch, Snow White can return from the dead, and Rapunzel can live in the desert, trust that you can too.
