The View from Here
A paranoid widow fears her late husband isn’t gone at all in a gripping psychological thriller by the New York Times bestselling author of Anthony Award–nominated These Toxic Things. After eleven years, Nicole Baxter and her husband Truman’s marriage is beginning to fracture. Suddenly, during a scuba diving accident near Catalina Island, Truman is gone. No body. No signs of foul play. Presumed dead. Clinging to the hope that Truman might still be alive, Nicole is devastated, in denial, and struggling with insomnia, as well as guilt over the secrets she kept from the man she loved—a pregnancy, a miscarriage, and an incautious fling with an attentive neighbor. Then come the strange occurrences putting Nicole further on edge. The scent of Truman’s cologne. The wet footprints in the house. The cryptic texts from his phone. And the message written on her bathroom mirror: I’ll luv u 4ever. Nicole has never felt so alone, isolated, and paranoid. If she’s losing her mind, then why does it seem so real? If it’s real, how is that possible? As Nicole’s grip on reality slips away, the answers are becoming a matter of life and death. Revised edition: This edition of The View from Here includes editorial revisions.
Ghost Army
During World War II, a 1,100-man unit known as the Ghost Army was sent to Europe with an important mission: mislead Hitler’s forces as to the size and location of Allied troops so that those troops would have time to carry out urgent plans of their own. This unit of artists, musicians, actors, architects, set designers, and engineers came together to construct “shadow soldiers” and put on a traveling show of deception for over twenty different campaigns throughout the war, using everything from fake radio transmissions to inflatable tanks to convince the enemy of their presence.

Set in a brutal, fully painted world of anthropomorphic animals—equal parts Inglourious Basterds and Watership Down—ESCAPE is a gritty, bullet-riddled journey through war’s scorched aftermath. It’s about the violence we inflict, the souls we try to save, and the courage it takes to crawl out of fire. From the creative team of New York Times bestselling author Rick Remender (Deadly Class, Uncanny X-Force) and powerhouse Daniel Acuna (Captain America, Black Panther)—the duo behind Marvel’s Uncanny Avengers—comes a savage, full-throttle wartime thriller where survival isn’t given… it’s taken. Milton Shaw is a battle-hardened bomber pilot, flying missions over a war-torn world ruled by a ruthless empire. But when his plane is shot out of the sky, Milton wakes up behind enemy lines—in the smoldering ruins of a city he helped burn. And in less than 24 hours, his own side is dropping the big one to finish the job. Now, injured, unarmed, and being hunted through enemy streets, Milton’s only shot at escape comes from the unlikeliest place: a grieving father and his son—civilians shattered by the same fascist regime that rules this land with an iron claw. Enemies by blood. Allies by circumstance. Together, they’ll have to fight their way out before the bomb drops and erases everything… and everyone. Collects issues #1-6
85 Seconds to Midnight
A warning to humankind from one of the world’s greatest physicists'What drives these pages is the guilty conscience of my profession, theoretical physics. My sole aim is to help avert what seems to me to be the unintended, yet scarcely avoidable, end point of the current politics of the governments we have elected: nuclear war.'The world is rearming and embroiled in endless conflict. The Doomsday Clock has now been set to 85 seconds to midnight, with the risk of nuclear war the highest it has ever been. Why do we always fail to learn from the pas? n this urgent book, acclaimed physicist Carlo Rovelli reframes the history of nuclear weapons: from how the atomic bomb was born to why Germany didn't build it and why the US used it, to the narrowly averted disasters of the Cold War and the political brinkmanship careering out of control today. As he grapples with the legacy of his scientific forebears, Rovelli spotlights the true nature of the decisions being made by leaders around the world today. A timely and ardent warning, this searing reckoning with short-sighted politics is essential reading for anyone seeking sanity at our moment of greatest peril.
Vyprošťovák ze chmur
Kniha přináší krátké duchovní texty inspirované všedními dny, tichem a modlitbou. Jemně a srozumitelně otevírá prostor pro zastavení a prohloubení vztahu s Bohem uprostřed každodennosti.
Slová, ktoré nepadli
Niektoré príbehy sa nezačínajú výkrikom, ale tichom.
Laura je obyčajné dievča, ktoré sa snaží nájsť svoje miesto vo svete. Má milujúcu rodinu, sny aj talent. No za zatvorenými dverami prežíva niečo, čo si mnohí nevšimnú – tichý boj so sebou samou, so slovami, ktoré boleli viac, než mali, a s pocitmi, ktoré nedokázala vysloviť nahlas.
Šikana, neistota, prvá láska, ktorá viac berie, než dáva, a pocit nutnosti byť „dostatočná“ ju postupne vedú na hranicu, kde prestáva vidieť svetlo. V hlave jej rastie chaos, ktorý nikto nepočuje. A keď slová zostanú nevypovedané, bolesť si vždy nájde inú cestu von.
Slová, ktoré nepadli sú silným a úprimným príbehom o dospievaní, zraniteľnosti a hľadaní vlastnej hodnoty. O tom, aké dôležité je byť vypočutý. A o tom, že aj v tých najtemnejších chvíľach môže existovať cesta späť.
Pre všetkých, ktorí niekedy mali pocit, že ich nikto nepočuje.

Pretty monster - Gyönyörű szörnyeteg - (Különleges kiadás)
"ÉLDEKORÁLT KIADÁS! Éjszakánként figyel engem.
Bemászik a nappalim ablakán, és jéggé fagyasztja a vérem. Érzem a jelenlétét. A hideg végigkúszik a gerincemen. Minden éjjel egyre merészebb. Hívatlanul lép be a hálószobámba, hogy kielégítse a függőségét.
Amikor megérzem bőrének forróságát, alvást színlelek. Rettegek, mihez kezd velem, de amikor hozzám ér, az egész testem lángra lobban. Sosem láttam az arcát, a nevét sem tudom, mégis vágyom rá. Minden porcikám azt üvölti, hogy ez bűn, mégsem zárom be az ablakot. Nem mondom ki azt az egyetlen szót: nem.
Alex Reid nem hős. Sötét múltú férfi. Képzett gyilkos. Bármit megtesz, hogy megvédje azt, amit a magáénak tekint. De ki az igazi szörnyeteg? Az, aki az árnyékból figyel, hogy vigyázzon rád, vagy aki a szemedbe mosolyogva árul el?
Beteg az elméje. A rajongása rabja. A saját elcseszett játszmájának megszállottja. De talán én sem vagyok különb nála. Mert akár tetszik, akár nem… a stalkerem függőjévé váltam."

The Living Declaration: A Biography of America''s Founding Text
INDEPENDENCE WAS ONLY THE BEGINNING: A historian and former presidential speechwriter traces the origins and legacy of the words and ideas that made America. Illustrations and close readings of 68 original texts offer new insights on the American Revolution, the Civil War, and other key moments and figures in American history.We hold these truths to be self-evident . . . all men are created equal . . . with certain inalienable rights . . . life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” 250 years after they were written, these words remain at once familiar and startling. What do they mean to us today? Do we understand them in the same way the Founders did? Historian and former presidential speechwriter Ted Widmer seeks to answer these questions by returning to where the nation’s story began, the Declaration of Independence, to trace the remarkable history of how it came to be and how it has shaped the democratic aspirations of Americans and others for more than two centuries. Weaving together more than sixty fascinating original texts, Widmer finds in the words of succeeding generations of Americans—radicals and conservatives, revolutionary insurgents and civil rights leaders, presidents and philosophers—the key to understanding the extraordinary durability of America’s founding ideas.An expert guide, Widmer introduces us to: the revolutionary writings that set the stage for the Declaration Noah Webster, of dictionary fame, offering a surprising definition of “equality”the true story of a fake declaration of independence “discovered” in Mecklenburg, North Carolina, in 1819 searing challenges to the Declaration’s philosophical claims by Frederick Douglass and Elizabeth Cady Stanton radically divergent readings of the Declaration that contributed to the Civil War, and Abraham Lincoln’s vision of a “new birth of freedom”the ways in which the Declaration inspired civil rights activists in the twentieth and twenty-first centurieshow the Declaration inspired democratic aspirations globally.The voices gathered here are impassioned and often disagree, but they are united in the belief that the Declaration has something crucial to tell us about the American people and the larger struggle for human freedom. “They speak to us,” Widmer writes, “and they talk to each other as well, in a conversation that will never end.”

Years after her mother’s death, Astra has moved forward with a career and relationship, but she still struggles with her grief. When a man reaches out to her and Phoebe, offering a window into their mother’s past, Astra must make a choice, and her decision forces her to face what it means to love someone after they’re gone, who we decide to forgive, and how families reckon with the past. © 2026 by Anna Nordberg, all rights reserved.

When she finally uncovers the box, what she finds will change her life—and the fate of gods and mortals—forever. Unless Isis can right the wrongs of a betrayal she didn’t commit and deliver Egypt into the hands of a worthy leader, Egypt will fall into chaos.

Landscape In Lavender
When society is primed to regard you as an outcast even before a sexually transmitted disease starts killing your gay brothers, coming out of the closet is hard enough - but even that is only the first step. Afterward, it can be challenging to cultivate self-respect, let alone find the lasting love you deserve and the home you crave. In this earnest, hopeful memoir, Brooks Kolb explores the conflict between his personal and professional identities as he traces his round trip journey from Seattle to Paris, Philadelphia, London, and San Francisco against the backdrop of the 1970s sexual revolution and the devastating AIDS pandemic that followed. During his travels, Brooks becomes a landscape architect, comes out of the closet, crosses racial barriers to win lasting love, loses that love, and finds belonging. Along the way he learns that freedom demands that one construct their own morality in the face of social ostracism, that loss is an inherent attribute of love, and that the need to belong can be just as urgent as the need for love. Heartbreaking but ultimately inspiring, Landscape in Lavender will charm readers across generations - LGBTQ+, cisgender, and straight alike - who struggle, or have struggled, to live a truly authentic life.
Urban Infrastructure in Medieval England
How medieval English towns built, sustained, and reimagined the lifelines of urban life.In the bustling market towns and growing cities of medieval England between 1200 and 1600, public works were the lifelines of urban society. In Urban Infrastructure in Medieval England, Roberta J. Magnusson offers the first comprehensive study of how medieval towns built, financed, and sustained their defenses, bridges, streets, water systems, and harbors.Magnusson reveals how even modest communities, like the Warwickshire town of Atherstone, boldly pursued projects that reshaped their futures. Grants of tolls and taxes funded paving initiatives, bridge repairs, and fortified walls, while enterprising lords and abbots sponsored sluices, conduits, and quays. These efforts were not confined to England''s great cities; small towns with limited means also sought to enhance their competitive edge, even when such investments strained their resources. Drawing on royal records, municipal archives, and archaeological evidence, Magnusson situates these civic undertakings in their broader social and environmental contexts. She shows how townsmen adapted traditional obligations of labor and charity alongside innovative fiscal tools to sustain projects that could span generations. Yet the balance was fragile. The crises of the fourteenth century—famine, plague, and the harsher climate of the Little Ice Age—undermined local resources, leaving many communities to struggle with maintenance or watch their infrastructures decline.At once a history of engineering, economy, and community, this study illuminates how medieval people conceived of security, health, and prosperity through the material fabric of their towns. By tracing the rise, transformation, and survival of these infrastructures, Magnusson demonstrates how urban communities navigated centuries of change while shaping the very landscapes in which they lived.
The Beginnings
The first book in Antonio Moresco''s colossally disruptive Games of Eternity (Giochi del? ternita)trilogy, translated into English for the first time.Upon its publication in Italy, The Beginnings was exactly that: the dawning of a new era. Like a photo-negative of Franz Kafka, or Virginia Woolf, Moresc? sweeping novel turns the stream-of-consciousness inside out, and offers nothing interior. Here, much like in real life, you will not be privy to the thoughts and feelings of others. Everything must be experienced as it happens.From our narrato? undergraduate years in seminary school, to his activities as a member of various Italian political factions, to his attempts to become a writer, The Beginnings is a shapeshifting journey across the 20th century, and across all of literature itself.
Foundling Fathers
When a radical think tank clones America''s founding fathers, The Boys from Brazil meets the bicentennial in this ingeniously satirical mashup of U.S.history, cloning, and technocracy gone terribly wrong. The trouble starts when a curious teenager, Benjamin, finds an iPhone in his privy. The problem is, it''s supposed to be 1750. Ben takes his discovery to his brothers - Thomas, John, and George. The boys have been raised in isolation on an island plantation by a firm but kind woman, Mary Libertas. All four of them chafe at Mary''s restrictions upon them - especially Thomas, who has impregnated yet another servant. Meanwhile, their de facto father figure, Jeff Hancock, complains to the shadowy Antediluvian Society that it is past the time to explain to the boys where they come from and what they must do: Run America the way it used to be run. In this more-than-slightly-absurdist novella, Philip K. Dick Award winning author Meg Elison (Find Layla) skewers those looking to an idyllic past to solve the problems they continue to create.
