Schwab "Addictive and immersive, A Gathering of Shadows cements this series as a must-read." —Entertainment Weekly, grade A Four months have passed since the shadow stone fell into Kell's possession. Four months since his path crossed with Delilah Bard. Four months since Rhy was wounded and the Dane twins fell, and the stone was cast with Holland's dying body through the rift, and into Black London. In many ways, things have almost returned to normal, though Rhy is more sober, and Kell is now plagued by his guilt. Restless, and having given up smuggling, Kell is visited by dreams of ominous magical events, waking only to think of Lila, who disappeared from the docks like she always meant to do. As Red London finalizes preparations for the Element Games-an extravagant international competition of magic, meant to entertain and keep healthy the ties between neighboring countries-a certain pirate ship draws closer, carrying old friends back into port. But while Red London is caught up in the pageantry and thrills of the Games, another London is coming back to life, and those who were thought to be forever gone have returned. After all, a shadow that was gone in the night reappears in the morning, and so it seems Black London has risen again-and so to keep magic's balance, another London must fall...in V.E.

A Gathering of Wings is coming . . . In a beautiful land steeped in fables, one tale rises above them all: the White Eagle; the Herald of Change. Erin Larkspur believes the White Eagle is more than just a story. But to speak of it is to invite swords to your door. So she keeps silent, and she keeps secret the family vault filled with stories, art; all relics of the Eagle. Her life continues on as it always has, uneventful, peaceful. Until one day when Erin's father leaves to seek the bird and the young woman is left on her own. Until one day when a wanderer arrives in Greyhaven. Until one day when a bloody event opens her eyes, throwing her into confusion and despair. Nothing is what it seems to be. A cold menace rises out of the mists of legends, forcing Erin to choose between friends or family, betrayal or forgiveness. But Erin knows the tales of the White Eagle. And they speak of change, of hope. Illustrated

In this small, luminous memoir, the National Book Award-winner Patti Smith revisits the most sacred experiences of her early years, with truths so vivid they border on the surreal. The author entwines her childhood self - and its 'clear, unspeakable joy' - with memories both real and envisioned from her twenties on New York's MacDougal Street, the street of cafés. Woolgathering was completed in Michigan, on Patti Smith's 45th birthday and originally published in a slim volume from Raymond Foye's Hanuman Books. Twenty years later, Bloomsbury is proud to present it in a much augmented edition, featuring writing that was omitted from the book's first printing, along with new photographs and illustrations.
