Karácsonyi enteriőrök - Christmas Interiors
"A Karácsonyi enteriőrök gondolatát kétségtelenül korábbi könyvem, a Budapesti otthonok formálta, sok esetben inspirálta is.
A könyv, melyet Darabos György fotográfussal készítettünk el - mintegy húsz év közös munkát is összefogva - 2010-ben az Alexandra Kiadónál jelent meg.
A karácsonyi ünnepkör nemre, vallási hovatartozásra, életkorra való tekintet nélkül mindenkit áthat, hiszen egyszerre kap benne fontos szerepet a tradíció, a család és az ajándékozás. A könyv felidézi gyermekkorunk karácsonyait, a mesék világát, elkalauzol különböző kultúrákba, bepillantást enged szépen feldíszített otthonokba, az olvasók elé tárja az ünnep ízeit, trendjeit, tárgyi világának megannyi nélkülözhetetlen darabját. Remélem, hogy a kötet számos hasznos ötletet nyújt a karácsonyi előkészületekhez, de azok sem fognak csalódni, akik a kandalló mellett, puha takaróba burkolózva csupán gyönyörködni szeretnének a képekben.
There is no doubt the idea for Christmas Interiors came from, and, in many cases, was inspired by Budapest Interiors. Published by Alexandra Publishing in 2010, Budapest Interiors represents nearly 20 years of work comprised by me and photographer György Darabos.
The spirit of Christmas impacts everybody, irrespective of gender, religious affiliation, or age, because it transcends such differences to include universal notions of tradition, family, and gift giving. This book evokes the Christmases of our childhood and the world of fairy tales. It introduces us to different cultures and beautifully decorated homes, acquaints us with the flavors and trends of the holiday, and presents us with countless indispensible items that help make our homes festive. I hope this volume will serve as a source of inspiration for many Christmas preparations and will not disappoint those either who simply wish to curl up next to the fireplace and enjoy the beautiful pictures."

The Golden Age of Photojournalism
Russell "Russ" Melcher came to Europe and photographed the superstars of the time, either during their visits to Paris and France or accompanied them on worldwide trips. He witnessed many world events from film festivals to terrorist attacks. Among the portrayed were royal families like the Windsors, Grace Kelly & the Monegasques, as well as film legends like Romy Schneider, Alain Delon, Burt Lancaster, Erol Flynn, Alfred Hitchcock, Sofia Loren, Brigitte Bardot, and music legends like Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Harry Belafonte, and Yves Montand. In addition, there were political greats such as Charles DeGaulle, Fidel Castro, Nikita Khrushchev, the Shah of Persia, American presidents, and many more. Later Russ Melcher became director of the legendary photo agency MAGNUM and worked with photo legends Robert Capa, Henry Cartier-Bresson, Ian Berry, Bruce Davidson, Elliott Erwitt, to name a few. This large-format photo book is about the stories behind the images and personalities.
Entertaining, humorous, but also profound, Russ describes his way to the perfect photo, his individual perspective, up to the importance of photographic storytelling of this 'Golden Age of Photojournalism'. Russ Melcher is an important witness to that time, but also an American entertainer in Paris who encouraged his protagonists to do things that few photographers could manage, a true and trusted partner to the stars of that era through the ages. The book is organised according to the two decades and Russell's encounters with the stars of the time.

King of Dead Things
Magical contemporary London. Two lives are about to collide. A journey of self-discovery.
For fans of dark fantasy like Cemetery Boys, Noughts and Crosses and Threads that Bind from major new YA talent Jamaican British author Nevin Holness
The first time Eli had tried taking magic that wasn’t his, it had wrapped around his palms like razor wire, tight enough that he’d needed stitches. Since then, Eli had bled magic from a soul enough times that he knew the rhythm of it. He knew what kinds of magic to stay away from and which he could upsell, which would get stuck beneath his fingernails and which would crumble and turn to ash if he held on too tightly.
Eli doesn't know who he is or where he came from. What he does know is that he can pluck the magic from a soul like a petal from a flower. And he knows there is nothing he wouldn't borrow, steal or destroy in order to discover his past.
Malcolm knows he can raise the dead with a wave of his hand but all he really wants is to be able to save his mother.
When Eli is sent to track down the legendary fang of the leopard god Osebo, he finds himself entangled with an old and ancient power. Forced to team up, Malcolm and Eli must weave through the cracks of London, unearthing magic that should have stayed buried.
Until finally, they face a power greater than either of them could have imagined: the daughter of Death herself . . .
Raising the dead is easy, living is harder.

100 Novels That Changed the World
A look at 100 inspiring novels that have left a significant mark on the world of literature and popular culture.
Before the novel, the world of books was dominated by scientific tomes, religious tracts and histories of the victorious in war. There had been stories and epic poems from ancient times – Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey recounted ancient Greece, and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight was a chivalric romance in Middle English, but it was not until the seventeenth century, when the European middle classes had money and leisure, that anything so frivolous as a novel could be sold for entertainment.
Colin Salter traces the evolution of the novel from the earliest examples through to the postmodernist best-sellers of the 21st century. Rather than dwelling too long on the technical nuances of innovative writing style he has amassed 100 of the greatest novel writers and chosen their most significant work.
For writers such as Herman Melville, James Joyce or Harper Lee the decision is not a difficult one. For Charles Dickens, Salman Rushdie and Margaret Atwood, the choice is perhaps more difficult.
Following the style set with previous books in the 100 series, most notably 100 Children’s Books and 100 Science Discoveries, each author is given a concise biography and their major novel analysed and then set in context with their other published work.
Readers can become ridiculously well-read in 224 pages.
Authors included: Alexandre Dumas, Daniel Defoe, Victor Hugo, Mary Shelly, Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, Charlotte Brontë, Emily Brontë, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Hilary Mantel, Jane Austen, Robert Louis Stevenson, Walter Scott, Lewis Carroll, JRR Tolkien, Gustave Flaubert, Marcel Proust, Henry James, Harper Lee, James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway, Margaret Atwood, Alice Walker, Jules Verne, HG Wells, Virginia Woolf, Leo Tolstoy, Louisa M. Alcott, Arthur Conan Doyle, Bram Stoker, John Steinbeck, CS Lewis, Chinua Achebe, Jack Kerouac, John Le Carre, Arundhati Roy, Mila Kundera, Joseph Heller, JD Salinger, Alexandr Solzhenitsyn, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Miguel Cervantes, Graham Greene, F. Scott Fitzgerald, George Orwell, John Steinbeck, Evelyn Waugh, Robert Graves, Daphne du Maurier, Agatha Christie, PG Wodehouse, Raymond Chandler, Hunter S. Thompson, Khaled Hosseini.

Kémek becsülete
Már a BECSÜLETBELI ÜGYEK sorozat eddigi részeit is olyan jelzőkkel illették, mint: "elképesztően jó könyv" (Newark Star-Ledger) és "rendkívül szórakoztató kalandtörténet" (Kirkus Reviews) vagy "bőven elegendő virtus, románc és akció ahhoz, hogy kielégítse a Griffin-rajongók légióit és még újabbakat is szerezzen" (Rocky Mountain News), az új könyv azonban még ezeken is túltesz.
1943. augusztus 6. Bár rövid ideje szolgált az OSS-nél (Stratégiai Szolgálatok Hivatala), az alig huszonnégy éves Cletus Frade-nek bőven kijutott a nem mindennapi helyzetekből - ám egyik sem volt a mostanihoz fogható. Hogy miért? Frade feladata az, hogy segítsen megszökni egy Wilhelm Frogger nevű német alezredesnek egy isten háta mögötti hadifogolytáborból a hőségben fürdő Mississippiben.
Frogger szülei, akiket Cletus Frade Argentínában tart őrizetben, felvilágosítást adhatnának egy titkos német tervről - melynek az a célja, hogy menedékeket hozzanak létre Dél-Amerikában a náci vezetőknek a háború utáni időkre -, de nem hajlandóak együttműködni az OSS-szel. Frade azt reméli, hogy az ifjabbik Frogger segíthet változtatni ezen. De még ennél is fontosabb az, hogy mielőtt fogságba esett volna Afrikában, Frogger részese volt egy Hitler-ellenes összeesküvésnek. Ha az OSS az ő ismereteit és kapcsolatait felhasználva segíthetne megvalósítani az összeesküvők tervét, a háború hamarabb véget érhetne.
Csakhogy nem Frade az egyetlen, aki tud Froggerékről. Még haza sem tért Mississippiből, egy németekből és argentinokból álló csapat, élükön Juan Perón ezredessel útra kel, hogy végezzen a Frogger házaspárral, majd magával Frade-del. Úgy tűnik, rövid karrierje az OSS-nél hamar véget fog érni.
A Griffinre jellemző, különleges hangulatú Kémek becsülete újabb izgalmas kaland napjaink egyik legnagyobb elbeszélőjétől.
