Taking Malazan fans back to that troubled connent's early history. This is the opening chapter in Ian C. Esslemont's new fantasy sequence, the Path to Ascendancy trilogy.

For ages warfare has crippled the connent as minor city states, baronies, and principates fought in an endless round of hoslies. Only the alliance of the rival Tali and Quon cies could field the resources to mount a hegemony from coast to coast – and thus the land became known as Quon Tali.

One is named Dorin, and he comes determined to prove himself the most skilled assassin of his age; he is chasing the other youth – a Dal Hon mage who has proven himself annoyingly difficult to kill.

Li Heng has been guided and warded for centuries by the powerful sorceress known as the “Protectress” and she allows no rivals. She and her cabal of five mage servants were enough to repel the Quon Tali Iron Legions – what could two youths hope to accomplish under their sfling rule?

It is a me of chaos and upheaval, and in chaos, as the young Dal Hon mage would say, there is opportunity.

How far did his war experience wrench an already disturbed mind in the direcon of a violent programme of revenge, culminang in mass murder? In this biography Paul Ham provides some very compelling answers.

THE JANUARY MAN Christopher Somerville

Publicaon: January 2017

Format/extent: Hbk 302 pp

From The Times' much‐loved walking columnist, a lyrical record of a year walking the Brish Isles while exploring the nature of his relaonship with his father

In January 2006, a month or two aer my father died, I thought I saw him again – a momentary impression of an old man, a lile stooped, seng off for a walk in his characterisc fawn corduroys and shabby quilted jacket. Aer teenage ris it was walking that brought us closer as father and son; and this ‘ghost’ of Dad has been walking at my elbow since his death, as I have ruminated on his great love of walking, his prodigious need to do it – and how and why I walk myself.

The January Man is the story of a year of walks that was inspired by a song, Dave Goulder’s ‘The January Man’. Month by month, season by season and region by region, Christopher Somerville walks the Brish Isles, following routes that connually bring his father to mind. As he travels the country – from the winter floodlands of the River Severn to the lambing pastures of Nidderdale, the towering seabird cliffs on the Shetland Isle of Foula in June and the ancient oaks of Sherwood Forest in autumn – he describes the history, wildlife, landscapes and people he encounters, down back lanes and old paths, in rain and fair weather.

Christopher Somerville is the walking correspondent of The Times. He is the author of thirty‐six books and has many TV and radio appearances to his name.

THE HURLEY-MAKER’S SON Patrick Deeley

Publicaon: April 2016

Format/extent: Hbk, 256 pp

This is an enchanng, beaufully wrien account of family, love, loss and the unstoppable march of me.

A courageous and hearelt work, a lament and an act of recuperaon, decepvely artless and engagingly plainspoken. ‐ George O'Brien, Irish Times

The Hurley‐Maker’s Son opens with the death of the author’s father in 1978, before moving back in me to a childhood in rural East Galway. Deeley’s life unfolds as a series of memories; from the intricate workings of the mber workshop run by his father to the slow taking apart and physical burial of an old tractor; from his mother’s steady work on an old singer sewing machine to his father’s verginous quickstep on the roof of their house. There are many wonderful descripons of the natural world and delighul cameos of characters and incidents from a not‐so‐long‐ago country childhood. In a style reminiscent of John McGahern’s Memoir , Deeley’s beaufully paced prose captures the rhythms, struggles and rough edges of a rural life that was already dying even as he grew.

Patrick Deeley is an established poet and his work has appeared in leading literary journals in Ireland, UK, USA, Canada and Australia. Approximately fiy anthologies both in Ireland and abroad have featured his poems, which also have been broadcast widely on radio and television and published in translaon to French, Italian, Dutch, Ukranian, Spanish and Moldovan.

SUGAR MAN Stephen ‘Sugar’ Segerman & Craig Bartholomew Strydom

Publicaon: September 2015

Format/extent: Hbk, 384 pp

Rights sold: Ullstein (German); Mondadori (Italian); Forum (Swedish); Malpaso (Spanish)

The true story behind the Academy award‐winning documentary, Searching for Sugar Man.

In the summer of 1972 Stephen ‘Sugar’ Segerman heard the music that would forever change his life. A decade later Craig Bartholomew Strydom heard the same music. Who was this folk singer that resonated with South Africa’s youth? All that anyone knew was his name – Rodriguez – and the fact that he had killed himself on stage aer recing his own epitaph. Aer many years of searching in a pre‐internet age, Strydom and Segerman found the musician, not dead, but alive and living in seclusion in Detroit. Struggling to eke out a blue‐collar existence, Rodriguez had no idea that he had been famous for over 25 years in a country half way around the world.

Fast‐forward to 2006, the year when Swedish film‐maker Malik Bendjelloul declared his intent to find the best story in the world. He tracked down Segerman and Strydom, and so began his quest to make a film of their remarkable tale.

Sugar Man carefully outlines three separate journeys: Rodriguez’s quest to make a life from music and his subsequent failure; the odyssey of two Rodriguez fans to find out what had happened to their hero; and the pursuit of die‐hard film‐maker Bendjelloul to bring ‘the best story in the world’ to celluloid, and his unmely death shortly thereaer.

NOTES FROM VELVET UNDERGROUND Howard Sounes

Publication: October 2015

Format/extent: Hbk, 400 pp

Rights sold: Xander (Dutch); Kosmos (Polish)

A meculously researched and revelatory new biography of the poet‐rocker Lou Reed.

To the general public he was the grumpy New Yorker, dressed in black, who sang ‘Walk on the Wild Side’ from the album Transformer. But there was far more to the arst. Lou believed that with the right lyrics, rock music could have the efficacy of literature.

Apart from being a rock ’n’ roll innovator of the first rank, Lou Reed was an unusual, psychologically complex man. Conflicted between being a natural outsider, which is where his originality lay, and an egocentric craving for fame and mainstream success, his career was the epitome of the modern arst.

Reed’s band The Velvet Underground inspired arsts including U2, Blondie, the Ramones and David Bowie, and formed part of the self‐educaon of generaons of young people. To know the songs of the Velvet Underground is, to some degree, to be educated in popular culture.

With a supporng cast from David Bowie to Andy Warhol, Howard Sounes’s account of Lou Reed’s eclecc story offers a window on this crucial me in pop culture history like no other.

Howard Sounes is known for his high‐quality biographies of a range of extraordinary characters including Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, and the writer Charles Bukowski. His books have sold in over twenty languages.
