"For years, Catherine Foundling struggled to scrape together enough money to enroll in the War College of Ater, the capital of the Dread Empire. Only when she arrives there, it's not as a powerless orphan: she is the Squire, apprentice of the Black Knight, and is immediately dragged into the schemes of powerful lords. Catherine must get to the bottom of a string of eldritch murders and the greater plot that lurks behind them before they get her killed—all while staying under an assumed name at the War College, lest the blades of assassins find her. If she fails, it will start a civil war that would ravage the same home she left to save. If she wins, it might be at the cost of becoming the very kind of monster she thought she was fighting. It will be a long year in the capital, living in the Tower's shadow, and how long Catherine can last might just be decided by the number of lines she's willing to cross to get what she wants."

Riding Like the Wind: The Life of Sanora Babb

"In 1939, when John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath was published, it became an instant bestseller and a prevailing narrative in the nation's collective imagination of the era. But it also stopped the publication of another important novel, silencing a gifted writer who was more intimately connected to the true experiences of Dust Bowl migrants. In Riding Like the Wind, renowned biographer Iris Jamahl Dunkle revives the groundbreaking voice of Sanora Babb. Dunkle follows Babb from her impoverished childhood in eastern Colorado to California. There, she befriended the era's literati, including Ray Bradbury and Ralph Ellison; entered into an illegal marriage; and was blacklisted by the House Un-American Activities Committee. It was Babb's field notes and oral histories of migrant farmworkers that Steinbeck relied on to write his novel. But this is not merely a saga of literary usurping; on her own merits, Babb's impact was profound. Her life and work feature heavily in Ken Burns's award-winning documentary The Dust Bowl and inspired Kristin Hannah in her bestseller The Four Winds. Riding Like the Wind reminds us with fresh awareness that the stories we know—and who tells them—can change the way we remember history."

A Practical Guide to Evil I

"The Empire stands triumphant. For twenty years, the Dread Empress has ruled over the lands that were once the Kingdom of Callow, but behind the scenes of this golden age, threats to the empire are rising. The nobles of the Wasteland weave their plots behind pleasant smiles while rebellion stirs beyond Peren Woods, for dreams of crowns were buried in shallow graves. The greatest danger of all lies to the west, where the First Prince of Procer restored order at last: her people sundered, she ponders if a crusade might not be the way to secure her reign. Yet none of this matters, for in the heart of the conquered lands, the most dangerous man alive sat across an orphan girl and offered her a knife. Her name is Catherine Foundling, and she has a plan."

The Growth Dilemma: Managing Your Brand When Different Customers Want Different Things

"You always want to grow your brand, but there's a dilemma: The more customer segments you target and serve, the harder it becomes to manage their diverse preferences and behaviors. Sometimes, you do such a good job building a loyal customer base that attempts to attract other customers feels like a betrayal to your core audience. Other times, a new segment adopts your products without your courting, and it creates tension with existing customers. Welcome to 'the conflict zone,' where brands must navigate incompatibilities between customer segments to achieve growth, or risk losing more customers than they gain. How did Supreme's attempts to crossover into fashion cost the brand its coveted reputation among skateboarders? How did Apple lose one of its most devoted customer bases when it updated a piece of software? What did Tiffany do when its silver jewelry became too popular with teenagers? Marketing experts and professors Annie Wilson and Ryan Hamilton answer these questions, and through dozens more cases provide insight into how brands can drive growth by attracting new segments without alienating or losing their current customers. They also explore how brands can more strategically select and manage customer segments to drive high velocity growth and symbiotic segment relationships."
