DEER CLUB IN DANGER!

Koshitan and Nokotan's dreams of a thriving Deer Club are on the line! Their club room has been wrecked and a mysterious hunter wants Nokotan's head. Only one thing can save Deer Club. A...trivia contest? That can't be right. What about a fashion show? A MyTube channel? Surely, a livestream of cute deer Nokotan will help.

A leading national security expert, who publicly predicted Vladimir Putin's intention to launch a full-scale invasion of Ukraine months before it took place, lays out the case for why China's Xi Jinping is preparing to conquer Taiwan in the coming years and the dire stakes for America and the whole world if he is not deterred.

In World on the Brink, security expert Dmitri Alperovitch makes the case that we are already in the midst of Cold War II, with China, and that Taiwan is the perilous strategic flashpoint of this new conflict that risks triggering a devastating war between major nuclear powers in a similar role that West Berlin nearly played during Cold War I.

Laying out the comprehensive strategy to deter war and maintain U.S. place as the world's leading superpower in the face of rising China, Alperovitch breaks down not only the significant weaknesses that can prevent China from surpassing the United States, but also the key policies that will enable America to maintain primacy even as China ramps up its efforts.

As Alperovitch explains, we must play to our strengths and address our weaknesses, using our leverage as the strongest nation on the planet to tactfully navigate the next Cold War. This sharp, timely book is the essential blueprint for doing just that.

An incredible sea story that turns the Age of Exploration on its head, following the first Japanese man to set foot on North America and England.

On November 12, 1588, five young Asian men--led by a twenty-one-year-old called Christopher--traveled up the River Thames to meet Queen Elizabeth I. Christopher's epic sea voyage had spanned from Japan, via the Philippines, New Spain (Mexico), Java and Southern Africa. On the way, he had already become the first recorded Japanese person in North America. Now Christopher was the first ever Japanese visitor to England, and no other would leave such a legacy for centuries to come.

The story of Christopher is almost utterly forgotten and has never been fully told before.

A Gentleman from Japan is a fast-paced, historical narrative of adventure, cross-cultural endeavor, intellectual exchange, perseverance, espionage and conflict in the Age of Exploration.

Born in Korea, raised in the American South, and trying her best to survive British academia, SJ Kim probes her experiences as a writer, a scholar, and a daughter to confront the silences she finds in the world. With curiosity and sensitivity, she writes letters to the institutions that simultaneously support and fail her, intimate accounts of immigration, and interrogations of rising anti-Black and anti-Asian racism. She considers the silences between generations--especially within the Asian diaspora in the West--as she finds her way back to her own family during the pandemic lockdown.

Embracing the possibilities and impossibilities of language, Kim rejoices in the similes of Korean, her mother tongue, and draws inspiration from K-dramas and writers across cultures who sustain her. As borders close in and nations enter lockdown, the journey that Kim traces is fraught--and at once illuminates that the act of remaining present has its own power, allowing boundless hope.

Most fairy tales end with a wedding and a happily-ever-after--but this is no fairy tale. The first volume of the official webcomic based on the hit webnovel by Suji Kim.

When stuttering Lady Maximilian is forced to marry Sir Riftan, a low-born knight caught in one of her father's schemes, her stumbling communication and his gruff manner sour their romance before it can begin. Riftan leaves for war the morning after their wedding night, and it's three years before Maxi sees him again.

Now, the husband she barely knows is a war hero. And when he comes home to claim her, Maxi will need to master his desire--and her own--before she can hope to become the true mistress of an enormous castle estate.

Volume 1 collects Episodes 1-24 of the webcomic.
