From internationally bestselling author Cassandra Clare comes the first novel in a brand new Shadowhunters trilogy. Evil is hiding in plain sight and the only thing more dangerous than fighting demons is falling in love.
Cordelia Carstairs is a Shadowhunter, a warrior trained since childhood to battle demons. When her father is accused of a terrible crime, she and her brother travel to Edwardian London in hopes of preventing the family’s ruin. Cordelia’s mother wants to marry her off, but Cordelia is determined to be a hero rather than a bride. Soon Cordelia encounters childhood friends James and Lucie Herondale and is drawn into their world of glittering ballrooms, secret assignations, and supernatural salons, where vampires and warlocks mingle with mermaids and magicians. All the while, she must hide her secret love for James, who is sworn to marry someone else.
But Cordelia’s new life is blown apart when a shocking series of demon attacks devastate London. These monsters are nothing like those Shadowhunters have fought before – these demons walk in daylight, strike down the unwary with incurable poison, and seem impossible to kill. London is immediately quarantined. Trapped in the city, Cordelia and her friends discover that their own connection to an dark legacy has gifted them with incredible powers – and force a brutal choice that will reveal the true cruel price of being a hero.

‘Transformative… Flip Thinking beautifully illustrates how a person who can turn a negative into a positive can never be defeated’ – Greg McKeown, podcaster and bestselling author of Essentialism and Effortless
Imagine this: you’ve got a great idea, and all you hear are the yes-buts. “Yes, but that’s been tried before, and it didn’t work.” “Yes, but shouldn’t we just let it sit for a while?” “Yes, but what if it doesn’t work…”
Stop saying “yes, but…” to life, and to start saying “yes, and…”
This international bestseller introduces the power of flip thinking to transform stuck-in-the-mud, pessimistic ‘yes, but’ thinking into an inventive, curious ‘yes, and’ mindset.
Berthold Gunster presents his fifteen flip thinking strategies that will transform your thinking away from limitations and threats and towards possibilities and opportunities. From disrupting (turn all the rules upside down), to flaunting (play up what you want to hide), and importing (get the enemy on board) to amplifying (focus on what works, and do more of that) Gunster’s strategies and stories will have you approaching even the most challenging problems, at work, home and at play, in a whole new way.

A BOOK OF THE YEAR

Anil Seth’s radical new theory of consciousness challenges our understanding of perception and reality, doing for brain science what Dawkins did for evolutionary biology.
‘A brilliant beast of a book.’ DAVID BYRNE
‘Hugely important.’ JIM AL-KHALILI
‘Masterly . . . An exhilarating book: a vast-ranging, phenomenal achievement that will undoubtedly become a seminal text.’
GAIA VINCE, GUARDIAN
Being You is not as simple as it sounds. Somehow, within each of our brains, billions of neurons work to create our conscious experience. How does this happen? Why do we experience life in the first person? After over twenty years researching the brain, world-renowned neuroscientist Anil Seth puts forward a radical new theory of consciousness and self. His unique theory of what it means to ‘be you’ challenges our understanding of perception and reality and it turns what you thought you knew about yourself on its head.
‘Seth thinks clearly and sharply on one of the hardest problems of science and philosophy, cutting through weeds with a scientist’s mind and a storyteller’s skill.’
ADAM RUTHERFORD
‘A page-turner and a mind-blower . . . Beautifully written, crystal clear, deeply insightful.’
DAVID EAGLEMAN
‘If you read one book about conciousness, it must be Seth’s.
