Brought to you by Penguin. Uncover the lost years of Critical Role’s unrelentingly upbeat, undead spellcaster in this original prequel novel to Laudna’s adventures with Bells Hells. For as long as she can remember, Laudna has had a friend. A mentor. A little voice whispering in her cropped ear, promising that, no matter how monstrous she becomes or how far she wanders, there will always be someone to guide her. And so, Laudna is content. But the thought of more—of life, of love, of the magic stirring in her still veins—is unrelenting in its familiarity. More is the dream of a little girl trapped behind the bloodstained walls of Whitestone, and the nightmare of the woman who now stalks the woods outside them.

Rebels with a Cause: Reimagining Boys, Ourselves, and Our Culture
An in-depth exploration of what boys teach us about humanity and culture, and a call to action to assess the crisis of connection we have created, in order to stop a vicious cycle of violence and blame In her previous groundbreaking book that was the inspiration for the Oscar-nominated film Close, NYU professor of developmental psychology Niobe Way describes her research findings that boys and young men have the same emotional and relational intelligence as all other humans and want and need the same thing, which is each other. Yet they grow up in a "boy" culture that makes them and us think otherwise. Thus, they have a hard time finding what they want and need, especially as they become men. Now in her new book Rebels with a Cause, Way takes it one step further and reveals how these "rebels with a cause," as she calls them, not only teach us about themselves but also about ourselves and why we, too, are having such a hard time, as evidenced by the soaring rates of depression, anxiety, loneliness, suicide, and violence around the world. The solution to this crisis of connection, Way argues, is to hear what the rebels are asking of us, which is to care, to listen with curiosity, and to take collective responsibility for the damage we have done to them and to ourselves. Way provides us with not only data-driven insight from more than thirty-five years of research into the roots and consequences of our crisis of connection, she also offers us concrete and empirically tested strategies for creating a world that better aligns with our human nature and our human needs. Her book reminds us that "it's not the rebels who cause the troubles of the world, it's the troubles that cause the rebels." The time to listen to and act on what they have to teach us is now.

Lifehouse: Building Care in the Long Emergency
How to reclaim power in a time of perpetual crisis We are living through a Long Emergency: a near-continuous train of pandemics, heatwaves, droughts, resource wars, and other climate-driven disasters. In Lifehouse, Adam Greenfield asks what might happen if the tactics and networks of care that spring up in response to these times might be brought together in a single, coherent way of life? Using examples from the Black Panthers' 'survival programs,' the astonishingly effective Occupy Sandy disaster-relief effort, and the neighborhood-based mutual aid groups that sustained many during COVID lockdowns to the large-scale, self-organized polities of municipalist Spain and Kurdish Rojava, Greenfield argues for rethinking local power as a bulwark against despair-a way to discover and develop the individual and collective capacities that have gone underutilized during all the long years of late capitalism, and a means for thriving in the face of impending catastrophe.

The Stories Whiteness Tells Itself: Racial Myths and Our American Narratives
The police murders of two Black men, Philando Castile and George Floyd, frame this searing exploration of the historical and fictional narratives that white America tells itself to justify and maintain white supremacy. From the country's founding through the summer of Black Lives Matter in 2020, David Mura unmasks how white stories about race attempt to erase the brutality of the past and underpin systemic racism in the present. Intertwining history, literature, ethics, and the deeply personal, Mura looks back to foundational narratives of white supremacy to show how white identity is based on shared belief in the pernicious myths, false histories, and racially segregated fictions. White supremacy insists white knowledge is superior to Black knowledge, and this belief dismisses the truths embodied in Black narratives. In James Baldwin's essays, Mura finds a response to racial distortions and a way for Blacks and other BIPOC people to heal from the wounds of racism. Mura attends to the persistent trauma racism has exacted and lays bare how deeply we need to change our racial narratives to dissolve the myth of Whiteness and acknowledge the stories and experiences of Black Americans.

Practicing Liberation: Transformative Strategies for Collective Healing & Systems Change: Reflection

Reimagining the Revolution: Four Stories of Abolition, Autonomy, and Forging New Paths in the Modern
These are the architects of the modern civil rights movement: 4 profiles of revolutionary groups making change beyond protest A radically different approach to sustaining social justice movements-4 strategies for abolition and liberation from the new architects of the modern civil rights movement Many of us think, I don't support the police. But what should take their place? Or: Prisons don't keep us safe. But what new systems could? A lot of books about racial justice ask us how we got here, but Reimagining the Revolution is different: award-winning journalist and activist Paula Lehman-Ewing presents an inside-access look at the activists redefining where we go from here. Readers will hear from: - Ivan Kilgore, an incarcerated activist who founded the 501c3 nonprofit United Black Family Scholarship Foundation from behind prison walls - Critical Resistance, one of the oldest grassroots organizations in the nation working to dismantle the prison-industrial complex - The co-founders of Greenwood, a Black-owned financial technology institution designed specifically for Black and Latino people and businesses: Michael Render, aka Killer Mike, Amb. Andrew Young and Ryan Glover - Incarcerated activist Heshima Denham on his grassroots efforts to build a society for Black and Brown people independent of the state - The Movement for Black Lives, the Alliance for Safety and Justice, BYP 100, and 8toAbolition - Incarcerated and formerly incarcerated artists using art to heal from trauma, connect with other incarcerated people, and amplify abolitionist change Lehman-Ewing frames each profile within two fundamental truths: The current system-built and sustained by oppression, extraction, and inequity by design-cannot be reformed. And, knowing this, we need abolition; we need creative solutions designed by the people most impacted by the systems they fight to change. Reimagining the Revolution is a call to action for each of us: if we can access the tools we have, we can dream bigger, think outside the box, and follow the paths laid out by change-making activists toward nothing short of revolution.

The Movement: How Women's Liberation Transformed America 1963-1973
A comprehensive and engaging oral history of the decade that defined the feminist movement, including interviews with living icons and unsung heroes—from former Newsweek reporter and author of the "powerful and moving" (New York Times) Witness to the Revolution. For lovers of both Barbie and Gloria Steinem, The Movement is the first oral history of the decade that built the modern feminist movement. Through the captivating individual voices of the people who lived it, The Movement tells the intimate inside story of what it felt like to be at the forefront of the modern feminist crusade, when women rejected thousands of years of custom and demanded the freedom to be who they wanted and needed to be. This engaging history traces women's awakening, organizing, and agitating between the years of 1963 and 1973, when a decentralized collection of people and events coalesced to create a spontaneous combustion. From Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique, to the underground abortion network the Janes, to Shirley Chisolm's presidential campaign and Billie Jean King's 1973 battle of the sexes, Bingham artfully weaves together the fragments of that explosion person by person, bringing to life the emotions of this personal, cultural, and political revolution. Artists and politicians, athletes and lawyers, Black and white, The Movement brings readers into the rooms where these women insisted on being treated as first class citizens, and in the process, changed the fabric of American life.
