<strong>'A brilliant and challenging book' GORDON BROWN</strong> <br/><br/> <strong>From the founder of Britain's leading antifascist organisation, HOPE not hate, this is an urgent call to resist the forces of extremism on the march in Western societies - and how to go about it.</strong> <br/><br/>If you're shocked and disconcerted by the rise of intolerance and hate, you're not alone. <br/><br/>Drawing from 35 years of campaigning and journalism, Nick Lowles shows how anti-immigration, antisemitic and Islamophobic attacks have proliferated in the modern world, and how Britain - with the likes of Tommy Robinson and the growth of Reform UK - has been far from immune from far-right politics. <br/><br/>From HOPE not hate's pioneering campaigns against the BNP in east London to the impact of the 'manosphere' and the issues in Netflix's <em>Adolescence</em>; from explorations of the pernicious influence of 'race science' and conspiracy theory to the interplay of deprivation and intolerance in Britain's deindustrialised towns, Lowles entwines his inspirational story with hard-won lessons from decades of activism. <br/><br/>His conclusions - which do not shy away from awkward truths for campaigners - suggest practical ways for the far right to be defeated. And he shares powerful examples - from a participant-led youth club in Hull to Syrian refugees connecting with local people over falafel in Bradford - of finding the joy in showing that, hard as it can seem, HOPE can triumph over hate.

<b>SHE RAISES HELL. HE RAISES THE DEAD. WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?</b><br/><br/>When new recruit Helspira takes on the doomed mission that no other soldier wants, life - and death - start to get a little complicated.<br/><br/>Helspira must play escort to Sikras - a frustratingly handsome necromancer with the power to raise the dead - as he attempts a mission that he's failed twice before; stopping an undead army at the edges of the kingdom.<br/><br/>No-one thinks he will succeed. Not even Sikras. But the more time the two spend together, the more they find they can imagine a brighter future. As secrets come out and the two grow closer - and Sikras's lively skeleton companion Benjamin tries desperately not to be a third wheel - will Sikras' and Helspira's changing feelings for each other be enough to overcome the growing danger?<br/><b><br/>RAISE A GLASS. RAISE THE DEAD. JUST DON'T RAISE YOUR HOPES.</b><br/><br/><b>Necromantasy is the new romantasy in <i>Hopeless Necromantic</i>, a debut romantic fantasy for fans of <i>Gideon the Ninth</i>, <i>The Irresistible Urge to Fall for your Enemy</i>, <i>Long Live Evil</i> or <i>Assistant to the Villain</i>.</b>

The only way to help him is to return him to his pantheon's healer, in residence in Paris. Ready for a new adventure, Jing immediately volunteers for the task.<br/><br/> Accompanied by Tony Lee, the group settle into the Immortal Express for what should be a run-of-the mill journey until the train is hijacked by the Vampire Republic, who are seeking hostages in their bid to demand recognition by the international pantheons.<br/><br/> Jing fears the worst, but when she unwittingly reveals her heritage, the vampires embrace her as one of their own . . . if she abandons her friends. Caught in an impossible situation, can Jing use her wit and spark to save them all?
