    Most people know this South Taranaki district, between Harwera and Whanganui, if they know it at all, for Dalvanius, the P¿tea M¿ori Club and that seminal waiata, Poi E. They know it as a farming heartland or a rural backwater. In this anthology of poems, you will discover that there is so much more.This anthology includes an impressive array of both experienced poets and tyro. We are most excited by the new voices we have unearthed. Skeptics suggested that we would be "lucky to get twenty pages." Well, we got was over two hundred. There are gems, emeralds, and amethysts contained in these pages. Luxuriate with them! Ki ng¿ iwi o P¿tea me ng¿ rohe o waho, he mihi nui ki a matou. He mea whakamiharo koe, kua miharo koe, kua koa. Kia whakangahautia ki t¿nei pukapuka, n¿ te mea nau tena! This is your book, enjoy it!"This original book which recognises the amazing talent we have in Patea, Wait¿tara and Waverley is overdue, and I am proud to support it."Tory Whanau (Pakakohi and Ngaruahine), Mayor of Wellington

    Rosenthal's debut young adult novel blends coming of age drama with historical fantasy and political thriller in an exciting action filled tale that will appeal to teenagers and adults alike. Adele, Ben and Mark are three home school teenagers, each with their own host of issues that keep them out of school. When they begin a history assignment, which sends them on a road trip to the Waikato, they discover their fates are entwined with deeper, older mysteries. At a different time in history, two boys, Matua and Thomas, find themselves at the centre of a sinister plot, while back in contemporary Auckland the success of the Ihaumatau protest hangs in the balance. What ancient shadow binds these threads together?

    In the tradition of James Joyce's Dubliners, Murray Edmond brings us Aucklanders, short stories that celebrate lives lived in New Zealand's biggest city. Through different time-settings, and narrative styles, the tales are variously entertaining, funny, satirical, reflective and tragic. Sometimes they are a little gruesome or absurd. Yet these Aucklanders often feel oddly familiar. Among them we encounter a scared RSA waiter, a Zen sensei who keeps his followers guessing, a shy boy who breaks a neighbour's hothouse with his shanghai slingshot, a famous drunken artist with a tortured legacy, and a delivery driver with a side hustle. The stories variously evoke the hopeful exuberance of youth and love, the pain of heartbreak and loss, and the ambient excitement of a high school play about to begin.

    Poetry that celebrates leaving, migrating and returning Debut poet, Katie Glasgow-Palmer, evokes those feelings that all of us who have spent time as a New Zealand expat will relate to: a funeral over zoom, a conversation on the plane, struggles with foreign cultures and languages, and that odd mix of pride and rejection that characterises our relationship with home.

    A meaty and satisfying selection of the work of one of New Zealand's most preeminent and prolific poets, tracing the development of his work from the seventies to today 'Johnson is one of New Zealand's most accomplished and inventive writers, at one with the word, its power, its airy fitness and everyday solidities, its resourcefulness, its craft.' Siobhan Harvey, Winner of the Kathleen Grattan poetry award, 2019 'The immense complexity of human relationships, social, sexual and everyday are at the heart of much of Mike's best poetry. However, there's an almost equal pull towards the empyrean: the cosmic mysteries of nature and the visible world, the beauty of the birds, trees and beaches which surround him in his longtime home-base, Waiheke Island.' Jack Ross, editor of Poetry New Zealand (2014-2019) '[Johnson finds] just the right formulation to deliver a descriptive vitalism that is open, alert, tentative, ambulatory, elegant, palpable.' David Eggleton, Poet Laureate, 2019-2022

    All seems lost for the Elbrand and the people of the Regions. Tolth is a captive in Menden Maradass. Zard, the black knight, has returned, and with an army of stone-soldiers, has crushed the Elbrand in their forest hideaway. Corrupt Governor Demsharl controls the south from his castle in the City Amitarl. The north, meanwhile, is firmly in the grip of the Evil One who is dangerously close to unifying the Seacrest. Yet, bleak as things appear, there are chinks of hope. Flindas, Tris, and Leana arrive back in the Regions carrying their fragment of the Seacrest, and Kerran has begun to master the ancient secrets of the Wizards Way.

They are beautifully complemented by the drawing and sketches of Leila Lees.'Sketches, a skein of fleeting moments arrested on the page, manages with its glancing, darting reflections and philosophical perceptions, to find just the right formulation to deliver a descriptive vitalism that is open, alert, tentative, ambulatory, elegant, palpable.'

    Flindas, Tris and Leana, carrying their fragment of the Seacrest are trapped behind enemy lines in inhospitable terrain. Maradass sends armies of horsemen, savage dogs and stone-men against the Regions. Meanwhile the green-and-brown clad Elbrand armies of the Iles of Zeta prepare to sail to their defence. Yet in the gathering epic clash, it is perhaps the secrets of the deep past, and the visions seen by Kerran, the young hero, on which the fate of the lands may lie.¿"They are all around you," said the Wizard mysteriously, raising his hands and waving them towards the room. "They arrived here at a different time and so they remain locked into that time. The tower seems but an empty vessel to the ones who have not looked deeply into the shadows."

    Len and his father, Son, might as well live on different planets. If the latter is a puritanical curmudgeon in his late 80s, then Len, a recent divorcee in his early 40s, is interested in one thing and one thing only: sex. They couldn't be more different - or similar. They are both storytellers. So when Len tries to get behind his father's good-time stories of World War Two, he discovers that its horrors are right here on his doorstep - just like those of the new South Africa.

    Maradass the Mad is dead. Maradass the Evil takes his place. Black dogs, hunt the land, corrupted stone-men march under the banner of the dog skull, and a poison spreads from the Broken Lands, threatening the Regions. Can Kerran, a youth from the Dreadim Forest, Findas, an outcast son of a nobleman, and, Tris, a girl and a thief who has learned to live by her wits, unlock the secrets of the Seacrest and save the Regions?" Soon the others could smell it too, a musty canine smell; then they heard the sound of padded feet, coming at a fast run. The moon was high and bright and the road stood out against the darkness. A black mass of moving bodies appeared where the road began its ascent. The large dogs, perhaps ten or twelve of them, became distinguishable from each other, their blue flamed eyes flickering as they ran. Behind them rode two men on horseback. They were armoured and cloaked in black, the white skull of a dog showing as the emblem on their tunics."

    The biggest challenges of the twenty-first century require global solutions. Focusing on three of the most urgent problems of our time--climate change, conflict, and poverty and inequality--Tu Rangaranga introduces the notion of global citizenship, and what it means to be an active citizen in today's world. If we are fundamentally linked to people around the globe by the clothes we wear, the phones we use, and the resources we consume, what does this mean for the rights and responsibilities that underpin citizenship? How should we respond to the climate crisis, conflict, or inequality? In the face of these daunting global crises, this book encourages reflection on the power of collective action to enhance the dignity and rights of others. Part of a series of books exploring and promoting citizenship in Aotearoa and beyond, Tu Rangaranga joins Tutira Mai (2021) and Turangawaewae (2017, 2022) in combining academic rigour with an examination of how to engage as an active citizen.
