    A Graphic Novel/Prose Hybrid

    1st printing.

    The Rise of the Dragon chronicles the creation and rise of Targaryen power in Westeros, covering the history first told in George R. R. Martin's epic Fire & Blood, from Aegon Targaryen's conquest of Westeros through to the infamous Dance of the Dragons - the bloody civil war that nearly undid Targaryen rule for good.

    1st printing.

    By Stephen Turnbull.

    This Samurai history, filled with dozens of woodblock prints and photographs, is an authoritative text on Japan's most fearsome warriors.

    Through fascinating stories and full-color historical images that show the samurai in mesmerizing detail, military historian Stephen Turnbull provides an invaluable guide to an enduring legacy.

    The earliest samurai warriors were actually aristocratic mounted archers, not swordsmen. Only as the archer gave way to the mounted spearman did swordsmanship come into play. Turnbull details how the history and the legacy of the samurai developed over centuries into a multifaceted, richly elaborate tapestry of martial and societal traditions.

    From the first recorded use of the word samurai in the eighth century to the final wars waged in resistance to the Meiji government in the late nineteenth century, this Japanese history book recounts the complex history of these warriors and demonstrates why the samurai continue to fascinate the world today.

    Includes 180 color and b&w photos and images!

    The zany and much-beloved comedy-musical film about pint-sized rockers sticking it to the man is now an adorable picture book! For those about to read...we salute you!

    When School of Rock premiered in 2003 it was an instant hit, and remained the highest grossing music-themed comedy of all time for over a decade. Now fans can enjoy the hilarious and heartwarming story in a whole new way!

    It's another ordinary day at Horace Green elementary school, and the kids think they're getting another ordinary substitute teacher. But instead Dewey Finn, a washed-up musician with dreams of greatness, whisks them away on a totally rocking adventure. After overhearing the kids in music class, Dewey discovers how talented they are and realizes he has another chance at his greatest dream: winning the Battle of the Bands. But first, the kids have a lot to learn about not only rock 'n' roll, but themselves. Tamika overcomes her shyness and discovers her voice. Summer channels her over-achieving personality into her role as the band's manager. Lawrence learns that you don't have to "be cool" to make incredible music. But when the parents discover what Dewey has been teaching their kids, will the School of Rock ever have the chance to compete at Battle of the Bands? The spirit of the original film shines through, with all the iconic moments and laugh-out-loud lines recaptured.

    This delightful story of a diverse and passionate group of kids coming into their own is a must-have for fans of the film, music-lovers, and anyone who's ever stuck it to the man!
