  2. Les Légendes de Tomb Raider

    Lara Croft est une icône comme le jeu vidéo en connaît peu. En onze jeux principaux, elle aura connu la gloire d’un succès hors du commun, mais aussi des échecs et des tumultes incroyables. <br> Cet ouvrage est une exploration inédite de la série Tomb Raider, pour révéler les coulisses de la création de ses jeux, mais aussi pour les comprendre et les analyser. C’est un véritable voyage dans un pan de l’histoire du jeu vidéo, des premiers pas d’une 3D bricolée par une poignée de développeurs de génie aux écrasants standards du AAA moderne. <br> Thomas Méreur est journaliste jeu vidéo depuis 2004, il a rédigé les critiques de tous les épisodes de la série Tomb Raider pour le site Gamekult, l’un des plus importants médias spécialisés de France. <br> <br>  À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR <br> <br><b>Thomas Méreur</b> écrit ses premiers articles sur le jeu vidéo en amateur vers la fin des années 1990 (la légende raconte que son premier test fut pour un fanzine vendu 10 francs dans la cour de son collège en 1994). C’est en 2004 que les choses sérieuses commencent quand il intègre la rédaction de Gamekult en tant que pigiste. Il y restera plus de dix-huit ans, le temps d’écrire quelque sept cents tests en véritable touche-à-tout, capable de passer d’un jeu mobile confidentiel à un gros AAA spectaculaire. Au fil du temps, il aura du mal à cacher sa passion pour les open worlds et sa tendance à écrire des articles interminables. Qu’il écrive un livre sur Assassin’s Creed était presque une évidence.

  6. A Croft in the Hills

    A Croft in the Hills, first published in 1960, is now acknowledged as a classic among Highland books. It captures, in simple, moving descriptions, what it was really like trying to make a living out of a hill croft near Loch Ness fifty years ago. A couple and their young daughter, fresh from city life, immerse themselves in the practicalities of looking after sheep, cattle and hens, mending fences, baking bread and surviving the worst that Scottish winters can throw at them. Their neighbours are few, but among them they find the generosity and community spirit that has survived in the Highlands for generations. Working as a tight family unit, they learn to cope, and in time grow to love their little croft.

  7. A Life in the Hills

    Katharine Stewart, who died in 2013, was one of Scotland's best-loved writers on rural life in the Highlands. A Croft in the Hills, her first book, tells the story of how a couple and their young daughter, fresh from city life, took over a remote hill croft near Loch Ness and made a living from it. Full of warm personal insights, good humour and a love of living things, it has become a classic and has rarely been out of print since it was first published in 1960. This omnibus gathers A Croft in the Hills together with some of Katharine's later books: A Garden in the Hills, describing a year in the life of her Highland garden; A School in the Hills, a vivid history of the school at Abriachan which eventually became the Stewarts' family home; and The Post in the Hills, which tells the dramatic story of the postal service in the Highlands, from the point of view of Katharine's later role as postmistress of the smallest post office in Scotland, run from the porch of her Abriachan schoolhouse. Each of these books glows with what Neil Gunn described as 'its unusual quality, its brightness and its wisdom'. The omnibus will bring the grace, charm and wisdom of Katharine Stewart's writing to a new generation of readers.

  8. Orkney Days

    This is the charming and poignant account of twenty-five years spent in Orkney. After her marriage to an islander, Christine Muir went to live on the tiny island of North Ronaldsay, where she and her husband brought up their four children and ran a small croft. Following the seasons though the year, Orkney Days is full of observations of the natural world at their doorstep. Beautiful descriptions of the island and its flora and fauna – from wildflowers and medicinal herbs to seals and seabirds – are mingled with memories of a young family growing up and the rhythms of daily life far from the bustle of the modern world. There is much too about the work involved in running their croft and the cattle and sheep that are its mainstay, about the traditions and lore of the island which stretch back over countless generations, and about the modern developments which changed it forever.
