Charming 2: Happily Never After

"ometimes getting what you always wanted is the worst thing that could happen to you. After the events of Last Prince Standing, Danny Charming, the last of his line and current wielder of the title 'Prince' Charming thought he'd finally got the hang of not dying horribly. He was wrong. Spectacularly wrong. When Danny's 'simple' artifact recovery mission goes sideways - thanks to a possessed Victorian lamp that grants wishes with typically malicious Faerie tale logic - he discovers that some genies are better left in their bottles. Especially when they decide to 'help' by showing Danny exactly what his life could have been like. What if he'd never been born? What if Henry had lived? What if Danny had been the chosen firstborn Prince Charming from the start instead of the disappointing spare? Suddenly Danny's bouncing between alternate versions of London where everything he thought he knew is wrong. In one world, he doesn't exist and Queen Mab rules through endless winter. In another, Henry's alive but broken, carrying scars from battles Danny never had to fight. And in a third, Danny's the perfect Prince Charming he always felt he should be—which turns out to be absolutely terrifying. The problem? The lamp's magic is unraveling reality, and Danny has to choose which world gets to be real. But every choice damns someone he cares about. Save Henry and watch Queen Mab freeze London solid. Save London and condemn his brother to a living hell. Be the perfect Prince and lose everything that makes him... him. With Lady Fenrys questioning her centuries-old loyalty, Detective Inspector Thorne getting dangerously close to the truth, and Nutter Blacktooth offering increasingly creative death threats as 'motivational aids,' Danny has to figure out how to save multiple versions of reality while dodging assassins who definitely don't care which world they're killing him in. Some wishes come true. That's when your real problems begin."

Charming 1: Last Prince Standing

"Prince Charming is dead. Meet his younger brother. Danny Charming thought getting arrested for running illegal tours of London's hidden places was his biggest problem. He was wrong. Very, very wrong. When Danny's brother dies in his flat, bleeding out while shoving a magical sword into Danny's hands, Danny discovers that 'Prince Charming' isn't just a fairy tale—it's a job. And like most family businesses, it comes with terrible hours, homicidal coworkers, and no proper training manual. Now Danny has thirteen hours to save London from something that's been picking off magical children. Danny's allies? A bound Fae warrior who might be lying to him, a government bureaucrat with her own agenda, and a psychotic 'Peaky Blinders' wannabe squirrel in a three-piece suit who keeps trying to murder him for 'quality control.' Oh, and Danny's sword Trueheart disguises itself as an umbrella to anyone who isn't magical. Because apparently, even ancient weapons worry about the Metropolitan Police. The worst part? Everyone who's supposed to help Danny seems to know more about what's really going on than he does. Including the vampires running wine bars and werewolves holding secret self-help meetings that Danny's brother was apparently attending. And the deeper Danny digs into his brother's death, the more Danny's starting to think that everything he's been told about being Prince Charming is complete rubbish. Thirteen hours until midnight. Something nasty is coming for the kids. And Danny's supposed to stop it while everyone keeps trying to kill him. This is going to end badly."

The Fourth Consort

"Dalton Greaves is a hero. He's one of humankind's first representatives to Unity, a pan-species confederation working to bring all sentient life into a single benevolent brotherhood. That's what they told him, anyway. The only actual members of Unity that he's ever met are Boreau, a giant snail who seems more interested in plunder than spreading love and harmony, and Boreau's human sidekick, Neera, who Dalton strongly suspects roped him into this gig so that she wouldn't become the next one of Boreau's crew to get eaten by locals while prospecting. Funny thing, though--turns out there actually is a benevolent confederation out there, working for the good of all life. They call themselves the Assembly, and they really don't like Unity. More to the point, they really, really don't like Unity's new human minions. When an encounter between Boreau's scout ship and an Assembly cruiser over a newly discovered world ends badly for both parties, Dalton finds himself marooned, caught between a stickman, one of the Assembly's nightmarish shock troops, the planet's natives, who aren't winning any congeniality prizes themselves, and Neera, who might actually be the most dangerous of the three. To survive, he'll need to navigate palace intrigue, alien morality, and a proposal that he literally cannot refuse, all while making sure Neera doesn't come to the conclusion that he's worth more to her dead than alive. Part first contact story, part dark comedy, and part bizarre love triangle, The Fourth Consort asks an important question: how far would you go to survive? And more importantly, how many drinks would you need to go there?"

It's Mine: How Crypto Is Redefining Ownership

"‘Crypto’, a loose term that means many things to different people, only entered the public consciousness within the last five years or so, now evident by the volume of public discussion, commentary and analysis spread across every conceivable media outlet. Cryptography has been around for millennia, but Bitcoin only arose in 2009, and it was the spark that has taken crypto from a small group of enthusiasts into a many-tentacled creature, now attaching itself to an astonishing number of projects across all manner of applications, challenging both public and private power centres and long-established norms as it spreads. Starting with the emergence of cryptocurrencies, a whole new host of life-forms have emerged – NFTs, the metaverse, Defi, Web3 and DAOs – all of them changing the very notion of ownership. It’s Mine digs into the history and concept of ‘ownership’, which ecosystems nurture it, and where we are now. Filled with anecdotes, observations and interviews, the book takes an entertaining and accessible look at how Bitcoin made its mark, how its technology is being re-purposed to enable a revolution, and (in non-technical terms) how it all works. It explores how these new crypto ‘life-forms’ will interact with the rest of the virtual and physical world, while making some very rich and some very poor. 'Future historians may well look back on 'It's Mine' and wonder at such a heuristic prescience gilded with clarity, style, and grace' Josh Rosenthal, US historian, podcaster, public intellectual, educator, serial entrepreneur 'Sidley explains clearly and persuasively how our rights and identities are being changed and challenged by technologies of our own making' Bronwyn Williams, futurist, economist partner at Flux Trends and Metanomic and author of The Future Starts Now"

Money and Power: The World Leaders Who Changed Economics

"A captivating economic history of government all over the world. Through economics, our politicians have the power to transform people's lives for better or worse. Think Deng Xiaoping who lifted millions out of poverty by opening up China; Franklin D Roosevelt whose 'New Deal' helped the USA break free of the Great Depression. Or Peron and his successors in Argentina who brought the country to the brink of ruin. In this magisterial history, economist and politician Vince Cable examines the legacy of 16 world leaders who transformed their countries' economic fortunes and who also challenged economic convention. From Thatcher to Trump, from Lenin to Bismarck, Money and Power provides a whole new perspective on the science of government. Examining the fascinating interplay of economics and politics, this is a compelling journey through some of the most significant people and events of the last 300 years. “Vince Cable brings economics to life in this thrilling history, revealing how 16 leading politicians over the last 250 years have used it in their own totally different ways to make the world anew.” SIR ANTHONY SELDON, author of May at 10 “A wonderful journey through the economic ideas that have shaped leading politicians throughout history.” DAME MINOUCHE SHAFIK, Director of LSE “From Hamilton and Lenin to Abe and Trump, these brilliant essays are true to the dictum that 'people don't believe in ideas, they believe in people who believe in ideas'. This is a book which will change the way you think about politics and the leaders and ideas which have driven it forward in the last three centuries.” LORD ANDREW ADONIS “Vince Cable brings out with spectacular clarity how important and radical leaders end up combining economic theory, political ideology and practical administration. This book needs to be read by anyone who is interested in how the world's economies are really run.” SIR OLIVER LETWIN “Money and Power provides a masterly analysis of how economic policy has determined the success and failure of political leaders through the ages.” VICKY PRYCE, former Joint Head of the UK Government Economic Service “As a former policymaker, Cable has an eye for the sort of political detail that brings a historical episode to life. It's an accessible read that helps us see the long-standing links between money and power all over the world.” LINDA YUEH, author of The Great Economists: How Their Ideas Can Help Us Today “Cable shows the influence of leaders in the course of history and the influence of economic ideas on their thoughts and actions. A brilliant project and splendidly delivered.” PROFESSOR LORD NICHOLAS STERN, LSE “A fast-paced, highly readable account of political leaders who transformed their countries - for better or worse - through the economic ideologies of their time. As an economist turned politician, Vince Cable is uniquely placed to provide a critical, but fair judgment of those who have shaped today's major economies.” DAME DEANNE JULIUS, senior adviser, Chatham House"
