Arabian Sands is Wilfred Thesiger's stunning account of five years spent crossing the Arabian Peninsula by foot and on camels, with nomadic Bedouin tribesmen as guides. Travelling between 1945 and 1950, the British explorer treks through Yemen, The Empty Quarter, Oman and parts of the then Trucial States, crossing and re-crossing around 250,000 miles of this most inhospitable terrain. He was the first European ever to set eyes on the dunes and wadis of these deserts. Faced with constant challenges and trials beneath the punishing sun, his journey is also spiritual and enriching, as it requires the utmost courage, patience, generosity and humour. In clear and evocative prose, Thesiger documents a journey of unimaginable hardship and startling beauty, as well as a time, place and people on the cusp of change.

My parents started using that word about a year ago one day, you ll take a trip to be with us. Like an adventure. Javier Zamora s adventure is a three-thousand-mile journey from his small town in El Salvador, through Guatemala and Mexico, and across the U.S. border. He will leave behind his beloved aunt and grandparents to reunite with a mother who left four years ago and a father he barely remembers. Traveling alone amid a group of strangers and a coyote hired to lead them to safety, Javier expects his trip to last two short weeks. At nine years old, all Javier can imagine is rushing into his parents arms, snuggling in bed between them, and living under the same roof again. He cannot foresee the perilous boat trips, relentless desert treks, pointed guns, arrests and deceptions that await him; nor can he know that those two weeks will expand into two life-altering months alongside fellow migrants who will come to encircle him like an unexpected family. A memoir as gripping as it is moving, Solito provides an immediate and intimate account not only of a treacherous and near-impossible journey, but also of the miraculous kindness and love delivered at the most unexpected moments. Solito is Javier Zamora s story, but it s also the story of millions of others who had no choice but to leave home.

Riding 2,000 miles on horseback from Montana to New Mexico sounds like a crazy but thrilling dream or pure hardship and exhaustion. According to Bernice Ende, the trip was all that and more. Since swinging her leg over the saddle for that first long ride in 2005 (at the age of 51), Ende has logged more than 29,000 miles in the saddle, crisscrossing North America on horseback--alone. More than once she has traversed the Great Plains, the Southwest deserts, the Cascade Range and the Rocky Mountains. From 2014 to 2016, she was the first person to ride coast to coast and back again in one trek, winning acclaim from the international Long Riders' Guild and awe from the people she met along the way. Lady Long Rider: Alone Across America on Horseback chronicles Ende's travels, the instant friends she meets along the way, and her ongoing encounters with harsh weather, wildlife, hard work, mosquitoes, tricky route-finding, and the occasional worn out horseshoe. Ende reveals her inner struggles and triumphs--testing the limits of physical and mental stamina, coping with inescapable solitude, and the rewards of living life her own way, as she says, "in her own skin." Along the way, she discovers a sense of community and love of place that unite people wherever they live. Saddle up and come along for the journey of a lifetime.

Don’t miss the TV series, Dark Winds, based on the Leaphorn, Chee, & Manuelito novels, now on AMC and AMC+! A New York Times Bestseller Anne Hillerman brings together modern mystery, Navajo traditions, and the evocative landscape of the desert Southwest in this intriguing entry in the Leaphorn, Chee, and Manuelito series. When Tribal Police Officer Bernadette Manuelito arrives to speak at an outdoor character-building program for at-risk teens, she discovers chaos. Annie, a young participant on a solo experience due back hours before, has just returned and is traumatized. Gently questioning the girl, Bernie learns that Annie stumbled upon a human skeleton on her trek. While everyone is relieved that Annie is back, they’re concerned about a beloved instructor who went out into the wilds of the rugged lava wilderness bordering Ramah Navajo Reservation to find the missing girl. The instructor vanished somewhere in the volcanic landscape known as El Malpais. In Navajo lore, the lava caves and tubes are believed to be the solidified blood of a terrible monster killed by superhuman twin warriors in this compelling tribal police procedural. Solving the twin mysteries will expose Bernie to the chilling face of human evil. The instructor’s disappearance mirrors a long-ago search that may be connected to a case in which the legendary Joe Leaphorn played a crucial role. But before Bernie can find the truth, an unexpected blizzard, a suspicious accidental drowning that launches a homicide investigation, and the arrival of a new FBI agent complicate the case. While Bernie searches for answers in her case, her husband, Sergeant Jim Chee juggles trouble closer to home. A vengeful man he sent to prison for domestic violence is back—and involved with Bernie’s sister Darleen. Their relationship creates a dilemma that puts Chee in uncomfortable emotional territory that challenges him as family man, a police officer, and as a one-time medicine man in training in this layered suspense novel. Anne Hillerman takes us deep into the heart of the deserts, mountains, and forests of New Mexico and once again explores the lore and rituals of Navajo culture in this gripping entry in her atmospheric crime series.

A vivid, searching journey into California's capture of water and soil-the epic story of a people's defiance of nature and the wonders, and ruin, it has wrought Mark Arax is from a family of Central Valley farmers, a writer with deep ties to the land who has watched the battles over water intensify even as California lurches from drought to flood and back again. In The Dreamt Land, he travels the state to explore the one-of-a-kind distribution system, built in the 1940s, '50s and '60s, that is straining to keep up with California's relentless growth. The Dreamt Land weaves reportage, history and memoir to confront the "Golden State" myth in riveting fashion. No other chronicler of the West has so deeply delved into the empires of agriculture that drink so much of the water. The nation's biggest farmers-the nut king, grape king and citrus queen-tell their story here for the first time. Arax, the native son, is persistent and tough as he treks from desert to delta, mountain to valley. What he finds is hard earned, awe-inspiring, tragic and revelatory. In the end, his compassion for the land becomes an elegy to the dream that created California and now threatens to undo it.

An all-new Deep Space Nine novel based on the landmark TV series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. It’s five years since the end of the Dominion War. Jake Sisko is back on Earth after a long journey round the Gamma Quadrant, finishing up his book about what life is like out there after the collapse of the Dominion. It looks like Jake has a great life—travel; success, and a writing career that’s going from strength to strength. The only problem is—everyone wants a piece of Jake Sisko. Whether it’s Starfleet Intelligence, full of questions about his trip through the wormhole, or the Bajoran people, anxious to be close to the son of their departed Emissary, Jake is struggling to carve out space for himself. Then there are the rumors Jake heard out in the Gamma Quadrant. Rumors about Starfleet, and his father, and their conduct during the war. Rumors which—if they turned out to be true—would rock the very foundations of Jake Sisko’s world… Jake accepts an invitation to an arts festival on Cardassia Prime, hoping to get some distance between himself and his worries. But even here, the past won’t leave him alone. Starfleet Intelligence are still interested, and there are people on Cardassia, too, for whom Jake Sisko seems to offer unique opportunities to advance their agendas. Jake flees into the Cardassian desert, joining a tour of ancient archeological sites. And then, when the party is isolated from the rest of the world, the murders begin…

From YouTube adventurer and National Geographic TV host, an inspiring travel memoir of one woman's solo adventures around the world and her pursuit of freedom. The Wilder Way (hardcover) is a bestseller in the Week of June 15 2026, via The Publishers Weekly - the leading trade magazine for the publishing industry. "A joy of recognition to many places around the world. A deeply personal insight in Eva as a person and her search... to find herself." Noraly Schoenmaker, bestselling author of Free Ride "Eva's story is one of pure grit, guiding us through an exploration of the space between being alone and being lonely, two things that are often - mistakenly - seen as one and the same." Brianna Madia , New York Times bestselling author of Nowhere for Very Long and Never Leave the Dogs Behind "Raw, disarmingly honest and beautifully told" Lucy Shepherd author of Into the Wild "Fans of powerful travel memoirs like Robyn Davidson's Tracks and Cheryl Strayed's Wild will find much to love in this compelling story of a woman rediscovering her spark by striking a different flint." Booklist Eva had it all: a high-flying job, a picture-perfect marriage, a lifestyle that many would aspire to. Yet she couldn't shake the feeling that she is living someone else's dream. After hitting rock bottom, she bought a one-way ticket to Nepal and left her old life behind in search of her true path in life. Over the next few years, Eva travelled solo to some of the world's most far-flung places - A lone horse trek in Mongolia, COVID lockdown on a desert island in Yemen and overlanding across the US in an 18-year-old truck with her beloved dog, Vilk. Along the way, she grew an engaged online community and transformed from someone living society's idea of a best life to a person discovering the truth of her own. But the shift from a rooted life to a transient one was far from straightforward and Eva grappled with the tension between her wanderlust and a longing for somewhere to call home. This book is the incredible, world-expanding memoir of Eva journeying through the world on her own terms - and an inspiring example of what awaits when you take the wilder path. "In a world that seems intent on locking us in gilded cages and behind screens, I want The Wilder Way to stand as an ode to freedom, a call to blaze your very own trail and a blueprint for an adventurous life."

After hitting rock bottom, she bought a one-way ticket to Nepal and left her old life behind in search of her true path in life. Over the next few years, Eva travelled solo to some of the world's most far-flung places - A lone horse trek in Mongolia, COVID lockdown on a desert island in Yemen and overlanding across the US in an 18-year-old truck with her beloved dog, Vilk. Along the way, she grew an engaged online community and transformed from someone living society's idea of a best life to a person discovering the truth of her own. But the shift from a rooted life to a transient one was far from straightforward and Eva grappled with the tension between her wanderlust and a longing for somewhere to call home. This book is the incredible, world-expanding memoir of Eva journeying through the world on her own terms - and an inspiring example of what awaits when you take the wilder path. "In a world that seems intent on locking us in gilded cages and behind screens, I want The Wilder Way to stand as an ode to freedom, a call to blaze your very own trail and a blueprint for an adventurous life."
