A Dream of Destiny: Awakening

P. H. Townsend
Every night, Kyle dreams of a sinking ship. Every night, Kyle watches his twin brother drown. And every night, Kyle wakes up safe in his bed at exactly 3 a.m. 
He’s been dreading the family cruise anyway, but when he sees that the ship is the same one from his dreams, he realises he has far more to worry about than having to share a room with his brother for two weeks. The dreams are an omen, and if he doesn’t do something, then everything is going to play out exactly as he’s seen it. 
But Kyle’s not the only one having dreams.  
Every night at 3 a.m., Mira wakes from dreams of a strange woman, a red tree and a tomb. When she and Kyle meet on the doomed cruise ship, she realises that their dreams might be connected. And hers might be a warning too—of something far worse than Kyle’s storm. 
A Dream of Destiny: Awakening is the first book in a thrilling new series for fans of Percy Jackson and His Dark Materials.

Stoic Ascent

Rahail Khan
You might think of philosophy as a purely academic pursuit for old men sitting around in robes. That couldn’t be further from the truth when it comes to Stoicism.  

Stoicism is a practical ideology that will help you build your character, overcome life’s challenges and live in accordance with nature. This is the philosophy of emperors, senators and kings, and you can join the ranks of such men by following in their footsteps and starting your own Stoic journey. 

Drawing on the writings of ancient philosophers and the author’s own journey, Stoic Ascent provides you with all the Stoic concepts you need to know. With the help of Stoicism, you can overcome whatever adversity you are currently facing, remain guided by logic and reason, and succeed in a fast-paced modern personal and business environment.
