Taking the original French legend as his starting point, The Story of Silence “Utterly enchanting” Publishers WeeklyThere was once, long ago, a foolish king who decreed that women should not, and would not, inherit. Thus when a girl-child was born to Lord Cador – Merlin-enchanted fighter of dragons and Earl of Cornwall – he secreted her away: to be raised a boy so that the family land and honour would remain intact.That child’s name was Silence.Silence must find their own place in a medieval world that is determined to place the many restrictions of gender and class upon them. With dreams of knighthood and a lonely heart to answer, Silence sets out to define themselves.Soon their silence will be ended.<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Author: </span>Myers, Alex<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Published: </span>[S.l.] : HarperCollins Publishers, 2020.<br />1 online resource<br /><br />eLibrary - (Buckinghamshire libraries) - eBook - 813.6 - If you have a valid Buckinghamshire library card and PIN, please click here for access - Electronically available (Set: 27 Jul 2020) - EDZ0002298373BUCCS<br /> https://buckinghamshire.spydus.co.uk/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/ENQ/WPAC/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&BRN=4889857 Maths + history + jokes - boring bits = A Quick History of Maths This book begins around 43,000 years ago   You will discover: In chronological order from pre-history to present day, Illustrated with funny cartoons Maths + history + jokes - boring bits = A Quick History of Maths This book begins around 43,000 years ago   You will discover: In chronological order from pre-history to present day, Illustrated with funny cartoons<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Author: </span>Gifford, Clive<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Published: </span>[S.l.] : Wide Eyed Editions, 2020.<br />1 online resource<br />Quick Histories<br /><br />eLibrary - (Buckinghamshire libraries) - eBook - 510.9 - If you have a valid Buckinghamshire library card and PIN, please click here for access - Electronically available (Set: 16 Jun 2020) - EDZ0002255656BUCCS<br /> https://buckinghamshire.spydus.co.uk/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/ENQ/WPAC/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&BRN=4879123 Juniper Greene lives in a walled city from which nature has been banished, following the outbreak of a deadly man-made disease many years earlier.
