Empire of Dreams is the first definitive look at all of the science fiction (SF), fantasy, and horror films directed by Steven Spielberg, one of the most popular and influential filmmakers in the world today. In the 1970s and 1980s, along with George Lucas, Spielberg helped spark the renaissance of American SF and fantasy film, and he has remained highly productive and prominent in these genres ever since. SF, fantasy, and horror films form the bulk of his work for over thirty years; of the twenty-six theatrical features he directed from 1971 to 2005, sixteen are of these genres, a coherent and impressive body of work. His films have become part of a global consciousness and his cinematic style part of the visual vocabulary of world media.

A spellbinding history of South America, as heard on hit podcast The Rest Is History 'Absolutely wonderful' DOMINIC SANDBROOK 'A luscious, erudite romp ... a tour de force of literary mezcla' ALICE ALBINIA 'An unputdownable delight' JON LEE ANDERSON 'A magnificent contribution to the Latin American canon' MARIE ARANA In this sweeping exploration of the continent's forgotten past, Laurence Blair takes as his waymarks nine countries that can’t be found on a map: vanished realms, half-imagined utopias and dismembered homelands. Looking beyond modern borders, he travels to each in turn – on foot and horseback, by rail and river – to weave an epic of survival, resistance and revolution. Blair’s journey spans five centuries and thousands of miles, ranging from ancient Amazonian civilisations and a rebel Inca dynasty in the Peruvian jungle – via a Brazilian Wakanda that defied slavery, Bolivia’s landlocked navy and the Patagonian power that defeated the Spanish Empire – to the African freedom fighters who marched over the Andes from Argentina, and the Napoleon of the New World who led Paraguay to its ruin. This is the story of South America as is rarely told: at the epicentre of global history and the forging of the modern world.
