Book excerpt: A first-time author delivers the most powerful and relevant nonfiction graphic novel since Joe Sacco's Safe Area Gorazde. Marjane Satrapi was the child of radical Marxists who helped overthrow the Shah of Iran, and this is her memoir, in comics form, of her struggles with the rise of Islamic Revolution as a young girl and teenager. Begun in 1999, long before the events of Sept. 11th, 2001, cast a collective world eye to the Middle East, Persepolis was first published last year in French and became an instant critical and commercial smash for L'Association, a well-respected but relatively small comics press in Paris.L'Association was prepared for Persepolis's critical success: Satrapi's first-person familial account makes a complex history accessible to outsiders, similar to Art Spiegelman's work, and her use of the comics form humanizes and gives immediate form to her life in a way few other prose books can. Persepolis's commercial success was less expected when published early last year, but in light of the worldwide attention on women's rights issues in the Middle East post-Sept. 11th, the book has taken on a life of its own and quickly sold out of 20,000 copies faster than they could be printed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When life gets your goat, bring in the herd Jennifer McGaha never expected to own a goat named Merle. Or to be setting Merle up on dates and naming his doeling Merlene. She didn't expect to be buying organic yogurt for her chickens. She never thought she would be pulling camouflage carpet off her ceiling or rescuing opossums from her barn and calling it "date night." Most importantly, Jennifer never thought she would only have $4.57 in her bank account. When Jennifer discovered that she and her husband owed back taxes—a lot of back taxes—her world changed. Now desperate to save money, they foreclosed on their beloved suburban home and moved their family to a one-hundred-year-old cabin in a North Carolina holler. Soon enough, Jennifer's life began to more closely resemble her Appalachian ancestors than her upper-middle-class upbringing. But what started as a last-ditch effort to settle debts became a journey that revealed both the joys and challenges of living close to the land. Told with bold wit, unflinching honesty, and a firm foot in the traditions of Appalachia, Flat Broke with Two Goats blends stories of homesteading with the journey of two people rediscovering the true meaning of home.

Book excerpt: THE DARK MIRROR is the first book in Juliet Marillier's Bridei Chronicles. Bridei is a young nobleman fostered at the home of Broichan, one of the most powerful druids in the land. His earliest memories are not of hearth and kin but of this dark stranger who while not unkind is mysterious in his ways. The tasks that he sets Bridei appear to have one goal--to make him a vessel for some distant purpose. What that purpose is Bridei cannot fathom but he trusts the man and is content to learn all he can about the ways of the world. But something happens that will change Bridei's world forever...and possible wreck all of Broichan's plans. For Bridei finds a child on their doorstep on a bitter MidWinter Eve, a child seemingly abandoned by the fairie folk. It is uncommonly bad luck to have truck with the Fair Folk and all counsel the babe's death. But Bridei sees an old and precious magic at work here and heedless of the danger fights to save the child. Broichan relents but is wary. The two grow up together and as Bridei comes to manhood he sees the shy girl Tuala blossom into a beautiful woman. Broichan sees the same process and feels only danger...for Tuala could be a key part in Bridei's future...or could spell his doom.
