This Inevitable Ruin
Strategy, alliances, pitched battles, betrayal . . .
It all makes for great fun and even greater television. The ninth floor. Faction Wars.
Nine armies enter, led by rich and powerful aliens from across the galaxy. The winning team must capture and hold the castle at the very centre of the battlefield. But thanks to Carl, Donut, and Katia, this season is different.
For the first time ever, the crawlers have their own army. The NPCs, who are normally used as nothing but cannon fodder, have become fully self-aware and have formed an unprecedented team of their own. And it’s not just the crawlers who are at risk this Faction Wars.
Any combatant who dies on the battlefield stays in the ground. For Donut and Katia, the stakes are even higher. No matter who wins the war, only one of them will be allowed to leave this level.
If they all want to survive, they’re going to need a little help. This is it. This is what they’ve been fighting toward.
This is war.

The Book That Held Her Heart
The final volume in the The Library Trilogy, following The Book That Wouldn’t Burn and The Book That Broke the World.
The secret war that defines the library has chosen its champions and set them on the board. The fate of an infinite library hangs on one book, a book that holds the power to break the unbreakable. In the face of such forces, fragile things like hearts, family, and the world seem certain to fail.
The people most vital to Livira are scattered across time and space, lost, divided into factions, in mortal peril. Somehow, she must bring them together and resolve the unresolvable argument that fuels the library’s war. The bond between Livira and Evar has stretched and stretched again. Can it hold at the end, when things fall apart? Can it bring them together against impossible odds?
This is the last chapter, the final page. The end threatens and no one, not characters, readers, or even the author, will emerge unscathed.
Hooked
Eriko really wouldn't mind being savaged, if it was her best friend doing the savaging … Eriko's life appears perfect – devoted parents, spotless apartment and a job in the seafood division of one of Japan's largest trading companies. Her latest project, to reintroduce the controversial Nile perch fish into the Japanese market, is characteristically ambitious.
But beneath her flawless surface she is wracked by loneliness. Eriko becomes fascinated with a popular blog written by a housewife, Shoko. Shoko’s posts about eating convenience store food and her untidy home are the opposite of the typical Japanese housewife’s manicured lifestyle.
When Eriko tracks Shoko down at her favourite restaurant and befriends her, Shoko is at first charmed by her new companion. But as Eriko’s obsession with Shoko deepens, her increasingly possessive behaviour starts to raise suspicion. As Eriko’s carefully laid plans begin to unravel, how far will she go to hold on to the best friend that she’s ever had?
Beautifully translated by Polly Barton, Hooked is a thrilling and unsettling story of the line between friendship and dangerous obsession.
A delicious exploration of food, loneliness and womanhood in contemporary Japan, Hooked brings together all the ingredients for which Asako Yuzuki is so adored.

Four years later, Blair is back in their coastal hometown of Seabrook to support her mom and care for her great-aunt Lottie.

Hannaróza
Hanna élete darabokra hullik, amikor ráébred: nincs egyedül a testében. Ott él benne valaki más is, akit Rózának hívnak. Kettejük között szakadék tátong, míg Róza maga a perzselő tűz, addig Hanna a szenvedély és félelem határán egyensúlyoz.
Amikor megismernek egy férfit, aki mindkettőjük szívét elrabolja, kénytelenek szövetséget kötni egymással. De a vágy hamar veszéllyé, a bizalom árulássá válik, egy haláleset pedig feltépve a múlt sebeit mindent megváltoztat. Ahogy a nyomozásuk feltárja a sötét titkokat, a határ a valóság és az őrület között egyre inkább elmosódik. De vajon túléli a szerelmük a borzalmas igazságot?
Erotikus krimi, ahol a szenvedély és a veszély kéz a kézben jár.

Light and Thread
What is love?
It is the gold thread connecting between our hearts.
In this light-filled and multi-faceted book, her first since being awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, Han Kang draws together the threads of her work and life, tracing the connections between her interior and exterior worlds through a sequence of essays, poems, photographs and diaries.
A book of reflections, of words and light, it has at its heart the tiny, north-facing courtyard garden at her home, cultivated solely through the reflected sunlight of the mirrors which she must move throughout the day, as the earth turns on its axis.
In a poem written at eight years old, Han Kang imagined a ‘gold thread’ of connection – an idea which she explores here with luminous attention, beginning with her Nobel Lecture. She writes of the wonder of following the thread we call language into the depths of other hearts, and her profound sense of an electric current which joins writer and reader.
Both intimate and illuminating, Light and Thread is a book for all readers of Han Kang’s unique body of work.
