They woke up in the Labyrinth -- at least, that's what Devon calls it. A seemingly endless complex of shiny metal corridors with doors spaced along left and right walls. Some doors are locked, but so far, the ones that Kenya can't pick or bypass, Jordie has been able to rip off their hinges. Devon hasn't had to use her flaming sword yet... on the doors, at least. But some of the things they've found beyond the doors have given them all a chance to practice their new powers. They don't know anything about where they are or what they're doing here. But the doors can apparently lead ANYWHERE.....

The third installment of the popular series looks at possible scenarios for the future of the Sussexes. It is 2028 and Oprah has arrived at Adelaide Cottage for a third interview with William and Kate. In the intervening five years, we learn that the Hollywood bubble has popped for Prince Harry, whose recent divorce from Meghan Markle has left him increasingly nostalgic for his previous life as a working royal. We also hear about Meghan's meteoric rise to political stardom, and learn that Prince William's implacable anger towards his younger brother has not eroded with time.

Roll up! Roll up for Harry and Meghan's very unmagical and not at all mysterious world tour! In this sixth installment Kitty discusses the reasons behind these escapades and whether they are in fact worthwhile.

The second fictional interview in the aftermath of Harry and Meghan's revelations. This time, Oprah fires her questions at Prince William and Kate following on from Harry and Meghan's Netflix series. It would never happen - or so we think - but is it really that unlikely? We live in a world where Netflix makes lavish dramas about the current royal family, whilst Prince Harry and Meghan continue to indulge us with tell-all interviews, articles, upcoming biographies and documentaries. So what if Oprah gave William and Kate the opportunity to tell their sides of the story and - against all the...

In HodgePodge, best-selling author Robert Urban once again shows his mastery of blending his authenticity, irreverent humor, brilliance and unique perspective to create a book about the realities of life. Robert shares his most intimate sometimes uproarious, sometimes tragic, but always poignant experiences and thoughts about parenting, death, god, groupies, dating, drug addiction and other topics. Critics have described this book as an "R rated version of Chicken Soup for the Soul".

From heartfelt stories about death, to life affirming stories about strippers with good hearts (and everything in between), Urban shows us that even the worst moments often have silver linings and that there is a laugh to be had in almost any situation. Although it seems like the world is bombarded by messaging that we are divided, Urban reminds us that we share similar experiences and we are a collective tapestry that are more alike than we think. "Getting Rob'd"s main point is that we are ALL part of the legend of humanity. Urban just has the last name that fits well with that.
