1st printing. By Rak Razam. Foreword by Dennis J. McKenna. Aya Awakening's strong adventure narrative and the mythic attraction of shamanism will appeal to alternative-minded counterculture seekers hungry for a bold story with a spiritual premise; new age and body, mind, and spirit readers; and global backpackers interested in psychedelics. In areas of Brazil, Ecuador, and Peru, the traditional herbal brew known as ayahuasca or yajé is legally used to heal physical ailments and to cleanse and purify the spirit by connecting it to the web of life; Sting and Tori Amos have admitted sampling it in Latin America, as has Paul Simon, who chronicled the experience in his song "Spirit Voices." In this book, Rak Razam, an Australian journalist, sets out to document the thriving business of 21st-century Amazonian hallucinogenic shamanism. Starting with a trip to the 7th annual Amazonian Shaman Conference in Iquitos, Peru, Razam meets a motley crew of "spiritual tourists," rogue scientists, black magicians, and indigenous and Western shamans, all in search of the experience offered by the ritual--and the medicine--of ayahuasca, "the vine of souls." During his research, Razam finds himself diving deeper into the shamanic lifestyle. Combining his personal story with the history of Amazonian shamanism, Razam takes the reader along on his enlightening adventure. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 512 pages, Text. Cover price $26.95.

Volume 1 - 1st printing. "From Syria to Turkey!"

Story and art by Fabien Toulme.

"What does it mean to be a "refugee"? It is easy for those who live in relative freedom to ignore or even to villainize people who have been forced to flee their homes. After all, it can be hard to identify with others' experiences when you haven't been in their shoes.

In Hakim's Odyssey, we see firsthand how war can make anyone a refugee. Hakim, a successful young Syrian who had his whole life ahead of him, tells his story: how war forced him to leave everything behind, including his family, his friends, his home, and his business. After the Syrian uprising in 2011, Hakim was arrested and tortured, his town was bombed, his business was seized by the army, and members of his family were arrested or disappeared.

This first leg of his odyssey follows Hakim as he travels from Syria to Lebanon, Lebanon to Jordan, and Jordan to Turkey, where he struggles to earn a living and dreams of one day returning to his home.

Written by Jack Mitchell. Art by Jessica Benhar. Cover by Diane Shaw.

Journey to a galaxy far, far away like never before-through lyrical verse and meter.

Like the tales of Odysseus and Beowulf, the adventures of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Jyn Erso, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, and the Emperor are fraught with legendary battles, iconic heroes, fearsome warriors, sleek ships, and dangerous monsters. Beginning with Rogue One's rebel heist on Scarif to secure the plans to the Death Star and continuing through the climax of Return of the Jedi, author Jack Mitchell uses the ancient literary form of epic poetry to put a new spin on the Star Wars saga.

Punctuated with stunning illustrations inspired by the terracotta art of Greek antiquity, The Odyssey of Star Wars: An Epic Poem presents the greatest myth of the 20th century as it might have been told nearly 3,000 years ago.

1st printing. By Peter Milligan and Jamie Hewlett. A twisted take on Homer's classical Greek epic - brought to you by Peter Milligan (X-Force) and Tank Girl co-creator and artist, Jamie Hewlett (Gorillaz) - Tank Girl: The Odyssey makes a few "minor" changes to the original. Booga, husband of Tank Girl, is being wooed by countless Hollywood producers, and without his wife there, his resolve is crumbling. Tele, their TV-headed son, knows that he must contact his mother...setting off a chain of events that will see Tank Girl face death itself, the siren call of gothic rock, a cyclopean hotel proprietor, and a host of other scenes and characters from The Odyssey... given the - ahem - "idiosyncratic" Tank Girl treatment! Softcover, 104 pages, full color. MATURE READERS Cover price $16.95.
