A song of ash and moonlight / by Legrand, Claire,1986-author.;
"The Ashbournes' war with the Bask family is over. Kilraith's curse has been broken. But Lord Gideon Ashbourne doesn't want peace; he wants revenge. And the only thing standing in his way is his eldest daughter: the unflappable, tireless Farrin. But Farrin's composure masks a seething sorrow. Since her mother abandoned the family, Farrin's been their rock-managing her father's temper, running the estate, looking after her sisters. She isolates herself from anything that could distract or hurt her: pleasure, her own musical power, and, most of all, love. Enter Ryder Bask. In Ryder, an enemy turned reluctant ally, Farrin's stubborn strength has met its match. The man infuriates her. He's coarse, arrogant, stupidly handsome. He oozes sex, while Farrin can't bear the sight of her own naked body, and he brims with some secret anger that mirrors Farrin's own frustrated rage. Unfortunately, Farrin must work with every ally she can. The Middlemist is weakening, allowing passage between Edyn and the Old Country that throws both realms into chaos. Anointed magicians are disappearing in strings of violent abductions. A fiery Olden creature is stalking Farrin. Meanwhile, debilitating visions plague the High Queen Yvaine, and horrifying rumors tear across the world: the gods are not dead. They're waking up. And someone is hunting them. As Farrin and Ryder race to find stolen loved ones and stop Kilraith's demented machinations, an earth-shattering passion erupts between them, breaking down Farrin's protective barriers at last and allowing her to be wholly, unabashedly, herself"--

Meet Chris Hadfield / by MacLeod, Elizabeth.; Deas, Mike,1982-;
"Meet Colonel Chris Hadfield, the first Canadian to walk in space - and make a music video while in orbit! When Chris Hadfield was a boy, growing up on a farm in Milton, Ontario, Canada didn't have a space program. But from the moment he saw a man first walk on the moon, young Chris decided he would somehow get to space. And with everything Chris did, from learning to fix farm machinery and joining the Air Cadets to flying fighter planes and becoming a test pilot, he prepared himself to get there. Chris Hadfield has rocketed into space three times, been on two space walks and was the first Canadian to command the International Space Station. And nobody plays a guitar in space or rocks a mustache better! This new picture book biography series features simple text and full-colour, comic-flavoured illustration with speech balloons that help bring the story alive.

David Bowie : a life / by Jones, Dylan,1960-author.;
"An oral biography by the longtime editor of British GQ, tracing the life of superstar David Bowie through the words of those who knew him, loved him, worked alongside and made unforgettable music with him. The nonstop outpouring of tributes after David Bowie's death in January 2016 revealed a powerful connection to an artist and art that few realized was so engaging and widespread. Most of all, his death brought forth an outpouring of stories about the man himself -- and yet even these were just the tip of the iceberg, a brief, private glimpse at a star who seemed to take pride in casting off identities as soon as they'd served their purpose. Now, finally, in Dylan Jones's magisterial, engrossing oral biography, the door has been fully opened. Drawn from nearly 200 new interviews with Bowie's producers, bandmates, managers, lovers and more, this book will mix private and public to tell Bowie's story as it's never been told before, offering something new for die-hard and casual fans alike. Stretching from Bowie's English childhood to the first blush of stardom, to early 70s New York and London through the wild hedonism of mid-decade Los Angeles, to Berlin and beyond, Jones's biography creates an intimate, cocktail-party tour of an incredible life and mind, using deep narration of key moments in Bowie's career to explore his unique ability to make millions feel as if he were speaking to them individually. In the unprecedented accumulation of voices here is perhaps the best, most intimate look we'll have at one of our most gnomic, if not groundbreaking, artists"--

Dickens and Prince : a particular kind of genius / by Hornby, Nick,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."From the bestselling author of Just Like You, High Fidelity, and Fever Pitch, a short, warm, and entertaining book about art, creativity, and the unlikely similarities between Victorian novelist Charles Dickens and modern American rock star Prince. Every so often, a pairing comes along that seems completely unlikely--until it's not. Peanut butter and jelly, Dennis Rodman and Kim Jong Un, ducks and puppies, and now: Dickens and Prince. Equipped with a fan's admiration and his trademark humor and wit, Nick Hornby invites us into his latest obsession: the cosmic link between two unlikely artists, geniuses in their own rights, spanning race, class, and centuries--each of whom electrified their different disciplines and whose legacy resounded far beyond their own time. When Prince's 1987 record Sign o' the Times was rereleased in 2020, the iconic album now came with dozens of songs that weren't on the original--Prince was endlessly prolific, recording 102 songs in 1986 alone. In awe, Hornby began to wonder, Who else ever produced this much? Who else ever worked that way? He soon found his answer in Victorian novelist and social critic Charles Dickens, who died more than a hundred years before Prince began making music. Examining the two artists' personal tragedies, social statuses, boundless productivity, and other parallels, both humorous and haunting, Hornby shows how these two unlikely men from different centuries "lit up the world." In the process, he creates a lively, stimulating rumination on the creativity, flamboyance, discipline, and soul it takes to produce great art"--

Do you feel like I do? : a memoir / by Frampton, Peter,author.; Light, Alan,author.;
"A revelatory memoir by rock icon and legendary guitarist Peter Frampton"--"Do You Feel Like I Do? is the incredible story of Peter Frampton's positively resilient life and career told in his own words for the first time. His monu-mental album Frampton Comes Alive! spawned three top-twenty singles and sold eight million copies the year it was released (more than seventeen million to date), and it was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in January 2020. Frampton was on a path to stardom from an early age, first as the lead singer and guitarist of the Herd and then as cofounder -- along with Steve Marriott -- of one of the first supergroups, Humble Pie. Frampton was part of a tight-knit collective of British '60s musicians with close ties to the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, and the Who. This led to Frampton playing on George Harrison's solo debut, All Things Must Pass, as well as to Ringo Starr and Billy Preston appearing on Frampton's own solo debut. By age twenty-two, Frampton was touring incessantly and finding new sounds with the talk box, which would become his signature guitar effect. Frampton remembers his enduring friendship with David Bowie. Growing up as schoolmates, crossing paths throughout their careers, and playing together on the Glass Spider Tour, the two developed an unshakable bond. Frampton also shares fascinating stories of his collaborative work with Harry Nilsson, Stevie Wonder, B. B. King, and members of Pearl Jam. He reveals both the blessing and curse of Frampton Comes Alive!, opening up about becoming the cover boy he never wanted to be, his overcoming sub-stance abuse, and how he has continued to play and pour his heart into his music despite an inflammatory muscle disease and his retirement from the road. Peppered throughout his narrative is the story of his favorite guitar, the Phenix, which he thought he'd lost in a fiery plane crash in 1980. But in 2011, it mysteriously showed up again -- saved from the wreckage. Frampton tells of that unlikely reunion here in full for the first time, and why the miraculous reappearance is emblematic of his life and career as a quintessential artist"--Jacket flap.
