An island people are fighting for their lives — a volcano in the Canaries has erupted — soon ash and lava will annihilate everything, unless the locals can destroy the volcano first. A desperate group set out armed with high explosives.Three thousand miles away across the Atlantic Ocean the peaceful seaport of Goodwill, Maine, is getting ready for its annual summer festival, Founders Day. Tourists and locals alike are in carnival mood. But all is not right — freak swells strike the coast, corpses are washed from cemeteries, the whales disappear from the sea. A convoy of surfers arrive: their network tells them something big is going to happen in this town any day now, and they want part of the action.Meanwhile the islanders have braved the ash clouds and packed their explosives into a fault line.Today half their island will crash into the sea.Three thousand miles of ocean will not save Goodwill from what happens next.

The story of Jack, the intrepid boy whose courage and ingenuity defeated a host of many-headed giants, has been told to children for hundreds of years. In 1842, when he was just 18, Richard Doyle, whose natural talent for draftsmanship was matched by imaginative invention and a passion for legend and the grotesque, created a picture-book version of Jack the Giant Killer, with hand-written text and a watercolor within a pictorial border decorating every page. It has remained one of the most beloved versions of this timeless tale.In this new Everyman's edition, Doyle's vivid, wonderfully engaging illustrations have been enlarged and the text has been given greater legibility. It is a book that will satisfy both the child's delight in scariness, wonder, and magic, and the collector's pleasure in classic Victorian illustration.
