Summary:

A hilarious fantasy sequel to The Dark Lord of Derkholm, set at the University after the fantasy world tours have stopped, and centred around 6 students (one a Griffin) and the bumbling new University Head Wizard. From the Godmother of Fantasy, Diana Wynne Jones.

The Year of the Griffin is the sequel to the Dark Lord of Derkholm, set in the same world several years after the abolition of commercial fantasy world tourism from our world.

The University now aims to produce competent wizards to repair the damage caused by the tours. Its broke, and out of date in terms of what it teaches. The new head, Wizard Corkoran, is obsessed with becoming the first man to visit the moon so is mostly preoccupied, and the new faculty is mostly inexperienced.

Wizard Corkoran has selected children from wealthy families to fill his own first-year classes, hoping to beg for money. But his students turn out to be more than he expected in oh-so-many ways, and despite the incompetence of their teacher, it falls to them to save the university and themselves

Title: Holocaust: History in an Hour

Author: Jemma J. Saunders

Narrator: Jonathan Keeble

Format: Unabridged

Length: 01:35:00

Language: English

Release date: 12-05-13

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers UK

Genres: History, Europe

Summary:

Love history? Know your stuff with History in an Hour.

The Holocaust, in which 11 million people died, was the largest atrocity of the 20th century and perhaps the hardest to understand. Approximately 6 million Jews and 5 million others including Roma people, Poles, Russian prisoners of war, political prisoners, homosexuals, people of colour, Jehovah's Witnesses, and various other minorities were first persecuted and then murdered.

How, both morally and logistically, had this came to happen? From received sentiments of anti-Semitism at the beginning of the 20th century, through the rise of Hitler and the Nazi party, to the Nuremberg Laws of 1935 and finally Second World War, the victimisation of these minorities intensified beyond precedent. With the complicity of a nation hatred became policy. Under the control of sadists, bureaucrats and even ordinary soldiers, irrational acts were then enacted on an industrial scale, and with the use of concentration camps, Western Europe witnessed its most shocking treatment of humanity in modern history.
