Book Description

1977 was a momentous year. We called it seventy-seven; the DJ on Capital called it Seveny-Seven. If you did not listen to Capital Radio, you were not worth knowing. To listen to 'Radio One' was heresy, even if it was the weekend top forty, both radio stations aired their singles chart on the same day at the same time. 'Radio One' did not have adverts but we still listened to London's radio station because we could pick it up even west of Reading and, for us, London was the centre of the universe. Seventy-seven was a cause of great celebration, it was the Queen's Silver Jubilee and you can still see plaques and go on a Jubilee walk to commemorate her twenty fifth year on the throne. Nineteen fifty-two saw the first commercial passenger jet airliner entering service and the completion of the first atomic bomb, nineteen seventy-seven was a street party to celebrate the achievements of Elizabeth's reign, full stop.

Book Description

SEVENY SEVEN Seveny-Seven was what the Disc Jockeys, slovenly, called the year of seventy seven, the year after the heat wave and the year before 'New Wave'. Nineteen Seventy Seven was the year of the Queen's Jubilee and the zenith of the Punk Rock revolution. It was time of fear and uncertainty. The oil crisis had knocked the economy off course, the cold war was at its height, there was doom and gloom all around. What did 1977 mean to adolescents? One teenager, Michael Fitzalan was keen to discover new music and celebrate his fifteenth birthday with a book published and a girl on his arm. An excruciatingly frank account of life in 1970's London that will resonate with teenagers now. This is a wonderful romp through a decade defining year.

From USA Today bestselling author Leslie Langtry comes a comic book convention turned crime scene! Welcome to Druid-Con! It’s Who’s There, Iowa’s first Druid-Con, a comic book themed convention organized by the teens of The Cult of Nicoderm (a group of four local teens who’ve taken the idea of extracurricular activities a bit too far). Ex-CIA agent turned suburban Girl Scout troop leader Merry Wrath doesn’t know how she was talked into making an appearance at the con as a giant beetle, but once she finds out that her favorite TV horror show host Deliria is going to be there, things are looking up! Meet Beetle Dork & Deliria… Always ready to take advantage of any opportunity, the little girls of Merry’s scout troop are at the con in full force and princess dresses, hoping to help ambitious eleven-year-old Ava with her campaign to be the youngest mayor in Who’s There’s history. Unfortunately trouble comes in the form of a confrontation with rival teen druids from wealthy Kennedy’s Landing. And while busy dealing with Betty, the troop's troublemaker who is forging VIP passes and selling conspiracy theories, Merry misses witnessing a show-stopping murder! …Before it’s too late! When lovable loser and druid leader Stewie is accused of the murder by a witness, and Betty’s parents consider sending her away to boarding school in Texas for her various and sometimes disturbing pranks, Merry knows she has to move quickly to clear the Dred Demon Stewie’s name and rein in her scout before her troop loses its most awesome (and terrifying) member.

Or do they? With her record of sleeplessness, everyone from her fiancé, Rex, to her Girl Scout troop are questioning her sanity. And when strange incidents of arson start popping up all over Who’s There, Iowa and a mysterious woman vanishes, Merry begins to believe her neighbors are foreign spies.
