From piano-playing child prodigy, through to classically trained keyboardist and onto his rise with Yes and as a solo artist, Rick Wakeman’s life so far has been one of very dramatic spirals, spectacular comebacks and legendary rock ‘n’ roll excess. While Rick takes his music and creativity very seriously, he views his life as material for a sitcom. This memoir is the story of a musical genius with a taste for adventure, a delightful sense of the absurd and a winning gift for comedy. It’s the book Rick has always wanted to write and the sole unsurprising thing about it is that it’s a hell of a read.

For nearly a decade, diplomats, spies, and soldiers around the world have reported sudden, devastating neurological injuries – symptoms eerily consistent with exposure to a directed energy weapon. Victims were told their illnesses were ‘psychosomatic’. Government agencies dismissed the evidence. And the CIA insisted no adversary was behind it. In this groundbreaking exposé, 60 Minutes producers Michael Rey and Oriana Zill de Granados reveal the hidden history of the so-called Havana Syndrome: from early attacks in Cuba and China, to the spread across global hotspots from Tbilisi to Vienna, to a mounting trail of evidence pointing to an elite Russian ‘kill’ unit as the culprit. Drawing on more than nine years of reporting, secret medical records, whistleblower testimony, and intelligence reports, they expose not only the technology behind the attacks but the U.S. government’s effort to downplay and deny them.

On the 29th of October 1908, a party of four men, led by Ernest Shackleton, set out to be the first to reach the South Pole. Three months later, their mission was in ruins and they faced certain death if they carried on. Just 97 miles from the South Pole, Shackleton turned back. One hundred years on, a team that included descendants of that original party, led by Henry Worsley, set out from Shackleton’s hut to celebrate the centenary of his expedition by retracing the exact 870 mile route and going on to finish the last 97 miles. This book tells the story of the original expedition and its failure, while also capturing the meticulous planning, fundraising and training for the new expedition.

Since his re-election as US president, Donald Trump has made good on things he only dreamed of accomplishing in his first term. In six short months he had smashed constitutional constraints, trampled on free speech, suborned the judiciary, demonised the media and crushed protests on the streets. He secured the backing of America’s oligarchs and inflated his personal wealth. US foreign policy is no longer based on values but on greed, while at home his administration has intervened in the almost every area of people’s daily lives, bringing the National Guard into America’s cities. According to Martin Sixsmith, BBC’s Moscow Correspondent when Vladimir Putin came to power, it all looks eerily familiar to what Russia went through in the 1990s. ‘Despots’ is Sixsmith’s exploration of two aspiring dictators who came to power in nominally electoral democracies, then dismantled the pillars of democracy from within.

In 1971, two years after the launch of Monty Python’s Flying Circus made his comedy troupe global superstars – and made all their lives a little more complicated – Eric Idle decided to buy a ramshackle property in the south of France. In search of a simpler, quieter life, what followed was a story akin to ‘A Year in Provence’, but with more disaster, more heartbreak, more laughs – and much more spam. A tale spanning a fifty-year quest of home-building, friendship-making and bad-French-learning, ‘Idle in Provence’ is a hilarious, tender and unforgettable memoir of Eric Idle’s very own escape to the country.

The whole city was covered with dark clouds, and conflagrations were breaking out in various directions. Could all of this have happened at once? It was then that black drops of rain, as big as blackberries, began to fall – rain caused by the atomic bomb. I wondered what had happened to my home and church. With a pale face, I ran down the Koi highway. When the atomic bomb fell on Hiroshima at 8.15am on 6 August 1945, Methodist minister Kiyoshi Tanimoto was just beginning his day with the usual bowl of soybean and rice bran porridge. Unbeknownst to him at that moment, the aftermath that will unfold before him over days and weeks is full of horror, but through his courageous determination to save his family, church and city from total devastation, Tanimoto would become internationally recognised as a hero of Hiroshima.
