From 2010 to 2015 Peter Lilly worked in various frontline roles for New Hope, a homelessness charity in Watford, just outside of London. This deeply personal collection is inspired by and written in response to this work, and he people he encountered. The collection doesn't shy away from the dark realities of homelessness, but dwells in these spaces so the readers' eyes may adjust, notice the beauty, and see that there is still a light of hope, even for those for whom society has largely given up.

We Rest Here Content is not the history of the Imperial Light Horse Regiment - that was written by the regiment's Intelligence Officer, Lieutenant George Fleming Gibson and published in 1937 as The Story of the Imperial Light Horse in the South African War 1899-1902. We Rest Here Content approaches the subject of the I.L.H. from a different viewpoint. It looks at all the known monuments and memorials as well as other accounts of I.L.H. involvement in the war.--

Many people of the world have followed the path shown by Mahatma Gandhi and have brought prosperity to themselves and their societies.It is often thought that the principles of Mahatma Gandhi are too hard to be followed by a common man.

Part gonzo journalism, part memoir, part stand-up comedy, Selected Pieces takes us on a whirlwind tour through the unquiet mind of a unique author. Never satisfied with what he sees, Ezra Williams tackles sex, cancer, true crime, loss, high finance, musical legends, literary commentary, travel writing, Internet mysteries and much more, making every page of Selected Pieces an unexpected adventure, and every paragraph an unalloyed delight.A beggar's mistake harms no one but the beggar. A king's mistake, however, harms everyone but the king. Too often, the measure of power lies not in the number who obey your will, but in the number who suffer your stupidity.R. Scott Bakker, The Judging EyeHow much truth is contained in something can best be determined by making it thoroughly laughable and then watching to see how much joking around it can take. For truth is a matter that can withstand mockery, that is refreshed by any ironic gesture directed at it. Whatever cannot withstand satire is false.Peter Sloterdijk, Critique of Cynical ReasonSo ring the bells that still can ringForget your perfect offeringThere is a crack in everythingThat's how the light gets in.Leonard Cohen, Anthem, from the 1992 album The Future

"What's up, man>" Joe hollered. "Something in your way?""Yeah, there's something in my way all right. I've uncovered a pile of bones.""Bones? What kind of bones?""Bones, human bones with a skull.""Oh, my God!" the workers yelled in unison as they scrambled off their paint buckets and slid down the embankment of the hole Warren was peering into,"Should we move them?" Joe asked."Well, I can't dig with them there," was all Warren could muster.Trevor picked up a long tree root and nudged the skull. It rolled over, and empty sockets stared back, vacant and weathered by time. The backhoe had cast the rest of the bones adrift in the dirt. They were a strange dirty tan color, and the hinges of the arms and legs were bulbous. He leaned down to investigate them more closely.Several hundred years and the right soil conditions for the fungus that had settled in the buried bones propagated a walking terror. Trevor was choses as the new host for that terror. What was left of the other workers' bodies was disposed of, and darkness fell.

Criminals and Crocodiles sets out the experiences of the author during the first few years of his total 19 years' service in the British South Africa Police, that being the formal title of the Rhodesian Police Force. Starting with the mail-ship journey out from Southampton in august 1964, to being squad leader in training depot, then a District Uniformed Posting to Victoria Province. The author sets out duty incidents from fatal road accidents to stocktheft cases and murders as well as encounters with the then plentiful wild-life of the country. He takes us into the early days of anti-terrorist activities as a member of Support Unit for more than two years, leading a section of 10 African Policemen, dealing with Restriction Camp Guard Duties, numerous patrols and ambush work in the Zambezi Valley and elsewhere. He does not overlook the history and archaeology of the nation and deals frankly and honestly with the personalities of those he served alongside and the officers and civilians he interacted with throughout nearly four years of proudly wearing the uniform and insignia of the BSA Police. Scattered throughout the book are photographs taken by the author whenever he had his camera to hand.

Outraged at the rape of Helen, the angels are in revolt. Cariel has forged an alliance with Captain Baker and the crew of the Fairweather, to tie up Semayaza in a distraction attack on the cloud city, creating precious time for Baliel to rally enough forces among the fallen, to lay siege to the lord of angels in his stronghold. Without their goddess, however, this is a strategy of desperation and likely failure.In the meantime, Eve is struggling soul deep, against the mudslide of obliviate transcendence, and can barely condense sufficient coherent thought, to maintain her sense of self; even in the vastnesses at the edge of infinity. She finds strength, comfort, and an unlikely ally, in the creature Ouroboros. Together they enter the earthly realm, but it's confines are crushing, her need, desperate to explode into the infinite call of oblivion. With the stricken Cariel at her side, she finds temporary release for the expansion of her essence, in the unformed void of Quantum space, but its uncertain improbability is a two edged sword that could threaten existence itself.With divine, demonic, angelic, and human aid, and the improbable appearance of a submissive and loyal artificial intelligence, Eve conceives a plan; to mould the probability of the quantum void, into the perception of her transcendent will, and thus create a vast sub nano space, solidified within the spiritual matrix of sentient life.Her plan relies on the ignorance of all those who would help her, willingly or not. To some extent this includes herself. She will need to visit, draw on, and manipulate, many wonderful and surreal worlds, and many entities, if her plan is to have any chance of highly improbable success.

Beautiful and thought provoking writing and poetry- both to guide and support fellow rebels and for those wondering who we are and what moves us to act. Our rebellion needs moments of exhaling and depth and Sue Hampton is an inspiring elder for those times. Dr Gail Bradbrook, co-founder of Extinction RebellionSue Hampton's essays on her experiences of dynamic climate activism are sometimes painful, but she provides those with love for all life with a clear understanding of all that is involved. Sue confronts the hard issues head on, the rage directed at us, the cruelty of the criminal justice and prison systems, and the feelings of guilt when we can do no more. But this unique collection brings joy in abundance; with short stories and poems that celebrate all that we love. Jon Fuller, campaigner, Media Tell the Truth
