Lewis Davies - Böcker

A brooding, murder mystery that hinges on the dark edges of imagination. A death on the mountain but no body, only rumours. Elan has been missing for two years. Her people presume she has abandoned the mountain to live with the Travellers who collect crystals from the quarries every Summer. Nye John, a friend of Elan, lives alone in a remote cottage on the far side of the Brechfa. He has lost valuable stock to unaccountable kills over the winter. He forms a theory that wolves from the North are running on the High Vans again. Not many people believe him but it is enough to start a rumour of something unaccounted for on the mountain. Elan's brother Cain still farms his land to the rim of the Vans. He has also lost stock to unaccountable kills. He needs to believe there are only rumours hiding on the open mountain. The rumours grow as the winter begins to grip the mountain and the truth decides to come down from the High Vans.

Originally published during the early part of the twentieth century, the Cambridge County Geographies were designed to provide a series of concise guides to British regions. Aimed at the general reader, they combined a comprehensive approach to various aspects of physical and human geography with an emphasis on clarity. This guide to Radnorshire by Lewis Davies was first published in 1912. The text is interspersed with numerous illustrative figures and also contains a list of the chief towns and villages within the county.

Continuing the Parthian New Welsh Short Fiction series, this work is an anthology of contemporary Welsh writing with 55 short stories from the best of new short fiction. Writers include Leonora Britto, Sian Preece, Anna Hinds, Alun Richards, Meic Stephens, John Sam Jones and Lloyd Rees.

A road book about travel and the lure of migration. A drive along Route 66 from Oklahoma through New Mexico and Arizona to the promised land of California. A country obsessed with change and itself, fragmenting into pieces as the drift of manifest prosperity stalls on the coast.

Some of the short fiction in this anthology is set in the urban centres of Wales. Other stories take the threads of styles of writing, urban and contemporary, weave them into the strings of themes that tie together the diversity and intertwining cultures strewn across the landscape of a modern Wales.

Tai lives in Tremorfa. He likes fishing and the Troll who lives at the bottom of Mrs Griffiths garden. He's never told anyone about the troll. Illustrated by a Welsh International Sportswoman, this is the first in a trilogy of "Troll" books. In an age of I-pods and downloadable movies there is a refreshing air of the simplicity and excitement in a days fishing and pure imagination. This work will appeal to any little boy with a pocket full of shells, pebbles and elastic bands.
