He just wanted to have some tea after his bath. But as he stepped out of his tub, the world seemed to have gotten much more interesting. A witch on a broomstick, a child with an unusual pet, a cook obsessed with chicken and aliens, a sensitive man with serious anger issues-he met strange people in strange places-and got lost as he tried to take the child back to her home. The two found themselves being chased by wolves and some unfriendly characters, and soon discovered that what was happening was just the tip of the iceberg. . . Here is a different kind of story to let both young and old escape into a strange yet fascinating world-on a flying broomstick with seatbelt unbuckled. In a style that refuses to fit neatly within traditional genres, it mixes mirth and wit plus a dash of fun geekiness (no need for a Rocket Science or similar degree) to create this highly entertaining and exhilarating novel.

A man slips on a dance floor and breaks his leg. He recovers damages. A child has both legs amputated as a result of meningitis and is awarded nothing. The law's justification for awarding damages in the first case is that the man's injury was the fault of someone else, while in the second case damages are denied because nobody was at fault. In this searching critique of the present law and practice relating to damages, Professor Patrick Atiyah shows that this system is in fact a lottery. He contends that the public are paying far too much for an unfair and inefficient insurance system and that reform is long overdue. His conclusion is that actions for damages for injuries should be abolished and replaced with a new no-fault road accident scheme, and actions for other injuries should be dealt with by individual or group insurance policies.

It is the 5th Century AD.The Romans have abandoned Britain, but there are still dangers for the Brigantes people.The Saxons are pushing their way north, so everyone in Doran and Rhiannon's settlement needs to know how to fight.Doran has other worries: he and his little brother live in fear of Torsa and his cruel threats.Rhiannon wants to help, but her prayers to the ancient river god aren't working.Could a mysterious man she meets change everything?Who is his Father God... and how can the dove stone help?Join Doran, Rhiannon and her faithful dog, Wolf, in this action-packed adventure about friendship, facing fears and finding faith, set in the wilds of northern England."What a brilliant read I think it's a fantastic historical novel, especially for anyone who has studied the Romans or has an interest in British history and is just starting their journey as a Christian. The drama throughout the book meant it was a real page turner and the way in which the characters were introduced and developed meant it was easy to visualise them and picture their experiences throughout the story. I can very much see it being used as a class novel in church schools and there really aren't many 'mainstream' class texts that talk about religion so this will definitely be a positive addition, especially with the historical overlap. However, I can see it really coming into its own as a recommended text for those individuals in juniors who have started to explore Christianity in more depth, especially the idea of prayer. It's definitely one I will be recommending " - Louise Quayle (junior school teacher)"I think The Dove Stone is inspiring because it shows that even thousands of years ago, God was listening. I found it fascinating learning about how Christianity came to Britain and I would love there to be a sequel I really liked the characters because I could imagine being friends with them (although maybe not Torsa ) and I couldn't wait to find out what happened next in their adventure." - Ellen"I love how the historical and religious ideas are combined into a fast-paced adventure story." - Jacob
