Book excerpt: An inside view of the bipolar mind, from euphoric illusions to psychotic madness. My vision for this book is to show you the things about Bipolar that aren't usually talked about.

Book excerpt: Description 'There is fire in your eyes, and it frightens me.' At the age of twelve, Luci cannot possibly comprehend what her mother means by those words - and her mother's suicide just hours later means she cannot ask. But the words will come to haunt Luci in the years to come as she battles with the highs and lows of undiagnosed manic-depression. The tragic death of her twin brother at the age of seventeen marks the beginning of a rollercoaster ride of intense emotion that pushes Luci to the very limits of her endurance. Her manic recklessness has far-reaching consequences, for both Luci and her extended family, and the accompanying episodes of depression leave Luci teetering on the thin line between life and death. When Luci meets Ben, she actually dares to hope that he might be the one person who can keep her on an almost even keel. But when tragedy steals Ben from her just weeks before their wedding day, Luci is left despairing of ever being happy as her tempestuous moods spiral once again out of control. Luci's hopes of happiness are rekindled when she finds love in an unexpected quarter, but as the rollercoaster ride becomes ever more extreme, an episode of psychotic mania threatens everything Luci holds dear, culminating in her hospitalisation and diagnosis with bipolar affective disorder (manic depression). By turns funny and tragic, The Fire in Your Eyes thrusts the reader deep into the tumult that is untreated manic-depression, a real rollercoaster of a ride. About the Author Martine Lara Daniel was born in York in 1981. From a young age, she knew she wanted to be a writer, and whilst at secondary school she would often be caught scribbling stories in the back of exercise books during lessons. Her dreams of seeing her name in print never dimmed, despite her life being turned upside down by episodes of mania, depression and brief psychosis during her late teens and early twenties. In 2003 the pressures of a stressful job brought on an episode of psychotic mania, which led to the breakdown that ended her hopes of a career in bookselling, following which Martine was finally forced into contact with local mental health services. With the help of medication and the support of her family, she began to pick up the pieces of her life and started work on The Fire in Your Eyes, juggling work on the novel with her studies with The Open University. She hopes to graduate with a BA (Hons) in Humanities with English Language in 2010.

Book excerpt: In this powerful and culminating work about a group of inner-city children he has known for many years, Jonathan Kozol returns to the scene of his previous prize-winning books, and to the children he has vividly portrayed, to share with us their fascinating journeys and unexpected victories as they grow into adulthood. For nearly fifty years, Jonathan has pricked the conscience of his readers by laying bare the savage inequalities inflicted upon children for no reason but the accident of being born to poverty within a wealthy nation. But never has his intimate acquaintance with his subjects been more apparent, or more stirring, than in Fire in the Ashes, as Jonathan tells the stories of young men and women who have come of age in one of the most destitute communities of the United States. Some of them never do recover from the battering they undergo in their early years, but many more battle back with fierce and often jubilant determination to overcome the formidable obstacles they face. As we watch these glorious children grow into the fullness of a healthy and contributive maturity, they ignite a flame of hope, not only for themselves but also for our society.

Book excerpt: The Great Sickness was new to everyone and there was no known cure. Little was known of its origins. But the first human falling ill from it died after 10 days, a farmer from the southeast states. From this moment, it spread with alarming rapidity. After months of mounting disorder as the sickness decimated one population after another, and resources dwindled, the Great War erupted. The war burnt itself out, leaving behind the smouldering ruins of many cities, lands, and peoples. Families dispersed, many got ill and died, and some went missing. To maintain the fragile peace in what remained, a new world order was created: Nova. It was divided into eight regions, each ruled by a Governor or Autarch. Under the Nova pact, no one was allowed to trespass each other’s borders. Trespassing could mean death. But Estella had to search for her missing loved ones who had left for the war and never returned. She was given a supernatural vision: The key to finding her missing family is to find this golden heart locket. Throughout her journey in search for the locket, she meets friends and foes, ghouls and demons, angels and guides. Will this prophetic quest end in victory or will she lose everything she has, including herself?
