Once trust is gone, what is there to hold onto? From award-winning author Jane Godwin, a thought-provoking novel about young teens navigating friendship and trust in a post-pandemic world of surveillance and control.

Australians love sport - and we love a sports cliche. No commentary is complete without a player under an 'injury cloud' or a coach with a 'selection headache'; every game has a 'ball magnet' player. Bring Your A Game is a celebration of Aussie sporting language: a true ornament to the game that gives 110 per cent to sports fans.So the ball's in your court, reader: are you ready to step up and play within yourself in order to appreciate the blend of youth and experience evident in this book by bestselling author and multi award-winning sports writer Anthony Sharwood, who has covered three Olympics, a Super Bowl, and written sport for newspapers, websites, magazines and television?In Bring Your A Game, Sharwood takes a tilt at explaining the origins and usage of all the essential Australian sporting phrases - ably assisted by Louisa Maggio's hilarious illustrations of your favourite cliches. What does a premiership window look like, anyway? What is the true cost of an injury toll? But this book is not just about the cliches. It is a long overdue tribute to the glory of Australian sporting lingo, a language within a language. Only an Australian cricket fan knows that if a bowler chucks pies, the cherry will end up in cow corner. Only an Aussie Rules footy fan understands that you can kick a bag but nothing's more exciting than a speccy. Bring Your A Game is the glut of possession every sports lover needs. If you don't grab a copy for the sports tragic in your life, Christmas will be a dead rubber and you'll be living in a world of pain.

Heroes are hard to come by - but there's one man whose legend has stood the test of two centuries, and whose name sits on Australia's highest peak. Tadeusz Kosciuszko: freedom fighter, friend of Thomas Jefferson and champion of liberty on two continents. Bestselling author Anthony Sharwood finds out why he's the hero the world needs right now.Kosciuszko - our iconic highest mountain - is a name familiar to all Australians. But how many people know who the mountain is named after?Tadeusz Kosciuszko , who lived from 1746 to 1817, is the most famous person Australians probably know absolutely nothing about. A military engineer, freedom fighter, and champion of human rights, this extraordinary revolutionary was crucial to the success of the American War of Independence, then bravely led an uprising against Russia and other invaders in his native Poland, promising freedom and equality to all who joined his cause.In his day, Kosciuszko was loved and respected across Europe and America. His great friend Thomas Jefferson called him 'as pure a son of liberty as I have ever known', while Kosciuszko would later challenge Jefferson to live up to the famous words 'All men are created equal' by bequeathing his American funds to free enslaved people, including those on Jefferson's plantation.Bestselling author Anthony Sharwood (From Snow to Ash; The Brumby Wars) has spent a lifetime walking, skiiing and writing about Kosciuszko National Park. Now he sets off on the trail of the man himself, travelling across the USA, Poland and Switzerland to key sites in Kosciuszko's life. Returning to Australia where a potential name change from Mt Kosciuszko to an Indigenous name is hotly debated, he walks with the area's traditional owners and discovers the ancient history of Australia's highest peak.Kosciuszko's life and legacy is enthralling, inspiring and indispensable. But is that reason enough to keep his name on the mountain?

ALL FOR MY CHILDREN is Sally Faulkner's unforgettable true story, showing how one Australian mother's life fractured in the moment she kissed her kids goodbye. This is a book Sally had to write, because it is the only way her children Lahela and Noah will know she never stopped trying to bring them home. In May 2015, Sally hugged her children as they left Australia for a two-week holiday to Beirut with their father, Ali Elamine. Though separated, custody of two-year-old Noah and four-year-old Lahela had not been an issue. The kids lived with Sally in Brisbane and their dad often visited from his home in Lebanon. To Sally, everything seemed fine. Twenty-four hours after that farewell, Ali said, 'The kids aren't coming back.' It was every parent's nightmare . . . and it was only going to get worse. After ten months without any contact with her children, missing birthdays and her daughter's first day at school, Sally had exhausted every avenue she could - pleading with Ali, using the courts, calling government departments and contacting the media. Waking in a Beirut prison cell handcuffed to a 60 MINUTES television reporter, Sally couldn't help asking herself . . . how did I get here? Looking back, 21-year-old Sally had scored her dream life as an Emirates flight attendant. She was dazzled by a world far removed from the suburbs of Brisbane. Then, she met Ali, a charismatic charmer with a Californian accent, who she thought was the perfect man, married him and had the children she'd always hoped for. But her dream life didn't last.
