Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Keep wildlife in the wild! Join Born Free behind the scenes of an amazing lion rescue. Simba was born in a French zoo and was later bought by an animal trainer. For many years he lived in cramped captivity. Luckily the French authorities intervened and in October 2012, Simba was rescued. Born Free then helped to relocate Simba to a home in Malawi where he could live in spacious, natural surroundings. When Bella was young, she was used as a photographer's prop and then later lived in a run-down zoo in Romania. Because she had been taken from her mother at such a young age and fed a poor diet, she sadly developed a weak spine and back legs. By the time she was rescued by Born Free, she had also developed problems with her eyes. Although this has left her with limited vision, she is an affectionate, feisty and playful lioness. Now Simba and Bella both live in Malawi where they have become great companions. Born Free invite you to share in their incredible story.

Book excerpt: Game of Thrones fans will love the New York Times bestselling Abhorsen series. Sabriel, the first installment in the trilogy, launched critically acclaimed author Garth Nix onto the fantasy scene as a rising star. Dark Secrets, Deep Love, and Dangerous Magic Sent to a boarding school in Ancelstierre as a young child, Sabriel has had little experience with the random power of Free Magic or the Dead who refuse to stay dead in the Old Kingdom. But during her final semester, her father, the Abhorsen, goes missing, and Sabriel knows she must enter the Old Kingdom to find him. She soon finds companions in Mogget, a cat whose aloof manner barely conceals its malevolent spirit, and Touchstone, a young Charter Mage long imprisoned by magic, now free in body but still trapped by painful memories. As the three travel deep into the Old Kingdom, threats mount on all sides. And every step brings them closer to a battle that will pit them against the true forces of life and death—and bring Sabriel face-to-face with her own destiny. “Sabriel is a winner, a fantasy that reads like realism. Here is a world with the same solidity and four-dimensional authority as our own, created with invention, clarity and intelligence.” —Philip Pullman, author of His Dark Materials trilogy
