The Comet Seekers
by Helen
Sedgwick
Róisín and François are immediately drawn to each other
when they meet at a remote research base on the frozen ice sheets of Antarctica.
At first glance, the pair could not be more different. Older by a few years,
Róisín, a daughter of Ireland and a peripatetic astronomer, joins the science
team to observe the fracturing of a comet overhead. François, the base's chef,
has just left his birthplace in Bayeux, France, for only the second time in his
life. Yet devastating tragedy and the longing for a fresh start, which they
share, as well as an indelible but unknown bond that stretches back centuries,
connect them to each other.

The Hidden Life of Deer
by
Elizabeth Marshall Thomas
The animal kingdom operates by ancient rules, and the
deer in our woods and backyards can teach us many of them—but only if we take
the time to notice.
Just as she did in her beloved books The Hidden
Life of Dogs and Tribe of Tiger, Elizabeth Marshall Thomas
describes a network of rules that have allowed earth's species to coexist for
millions of years. Most of us have lost touch with these rules, yet they are a
deep part of us, from our ancient evolutionary past. The Hidden Life of
Deer is a narrative masterpiece and a naturalist's
delight.
