The second book in the blockbusting new series from the bestselling author of Artemis Fowl.The second Fowl Twins adventure starts with a bang - literally.Artemis's little brothers Myles and Beckett borrow the Fowl jet without permission, and it ends up as a fireball over Florida. The twins plus their fairy minder, the pixie-elf hybrid Lazuli Heitz, are lucky to escape with their lives.The Fowl parents and fairy police force decide that enough is enough and the twins are placed under house arrest. But Myles has questions, like: who was tracking the Fowl jet? Why would someone want to blow them out of the sky? These questions must infuriate someone, because Myles is abducted and spirited away from his twin.Now Beckett and Lazuli must collaborate to find Myles and rescue him - not easy when it was Myles who was the brains of the operation.
Their chase will take them across continents, deep underground, and into subaquatic super villain lairs. They will be shot at, covered in spit, and at the receiving end of some quite nasty dwarf sarcasm. But will Beckett be able to come up with a genius plan without a genius on hand...?

The Fowl Twins
Criminal genius runs in the family...
Myles and Beckett Fowl are twins but the two boys are wildly different. Beckett is blonde, messy and sulks whenever he has to wear clothes. Myles is impeccably neat, has an IQ of 170, and 3D prints a fresh suit every day - just like his older brother, Artemis Fowl.
A week after their eleventh birthday the twins are left in the care of house security system, NANNI, for a single night. In that time, they befriend a troll on the run from a nefarious nobleman and an interrogating nun both of whom need the magical creature for their own gain . . .
Prepare for an epic adventure in which The Fowl Twins and their new troll friend escape, get shot at, kidnapped, buried, arrested, threatened, killed (temporarily) . . . and discover that the strongest bond in the world is not the one forged by covalent electrons in adjacent atoms, but the one that exists between a pair of twins.
The first book in the blockbusting new series from global bestseller Eoin Colfer.

Lacná kniha A Hail Mary-küldetés (-70%)
Ryland Grace egyedül maradt: az utolsó esélyként indított küldetés egyetlen túlélőjeként nem vallhat kudarcot, különben az egész Föld és vele az emberiség is elpusztul. Csakhogy éppenséggel ezt ő maga sem tudja. A saját nevére sem emlékszik, nemhogy arra, hogy hol van, és mit is kéne tennie.
Csak annyit tud, hogy évekig tartó öntudatlanságból ébresztik fel, sok millió kilométerre az otthonától, két holttest társaságában.
Rylandnak lépésről lépésre kell feltárnia a múltját. Így apránként szembesül az előtte álló lehetetlen feladattal: a bolygó kormányai összefogásában sebtiben összetákolt, majd az űr mélyébe kilőtt hajó fedélzetén egymagában kell elhárítania az emberiség kihalásával fenyegető, felfoghatatlan súlyú katasztrófát.
Ha beszámítjuk a képletbe váratlan szövetségesét, talán még sikerrel is járhat.
A hazánkban is lehengerlő sikert aratott A marsi – Mentőexpedíció és az Artemis után a #1 New York Times-bestsellerszerző Andy Weir ismét lélegzetelállító útra hív a világegyetem mélyére eddigi talán legizgalmasabb könyvében.

Mythos
The Greek myths are the greatest stories ever told, passed down through millennia and inspiring writers and artists as varied as Shakespeare, Michelangelo, James Joyce and Walt Disney.
They are embedded deeply in the traditions, tales and cultural DNA of the West. In Stephen Fry's hands the stories of the titans and gods become a brilliantly entertaining account of ribaldry and revelry, warfare and worship, debauchery, love affairs and life lessons, slayings and suicides, triumphs and tragedies.
You'll fall in love with Zeus, marvel at the birth of Athena, wince at Cronus and Gaia's revenge on Ouranos, weep with King Midas and hunt with the beautiful and ferocious Artemis.
Thoroughly spellbinding, informative and moving, Stephen Fry's Mythos perfectly captures these stories for the modern age - in all their rich and deeply human relevance.

Plugged
Dan, an Irishman who's ended up in New Jersey, finds himself embroiled in a world of murder, kidnapping and corrupt cops. Dan works as a bouncer in a seedy club, half in love with hostess Connie. When Connie is murdered on the premises, a vengeful Dan finds himself embroiled in an increasingly deadly sequence of events in which his doctor friend Zeb goes mysteriously missing, a cop-killing female cop becomes his only ally, and he makes an enemy of ruthless drug-dealer Mike Madden. Written with the warmth and wit that make the Artemis Fowl novels so irresistible, though with additional torture and violence, PLUGGED is a brilliant crime debut from a naturally gifted writer with a huge fanbase.

Hunted
For a two-thousand-year-old Druid, Atticus O'Sullivan is a pretty fast runner. Good thing, because he's being chased by not one but two goddesses of the hunt - Artemis and Diana - for messing with one of their own. Dodging their slings and arrows, Atticus, his apprentice Granuaile and his wolfhound Oberon are making a mad dash across modern-day Europe to seek help from a friend of the Tuatha Dé Danann. His usual magical option of shifting planes is blocked, so instead of playing hide and seek, the game plan is . . . run like hell.
Crashing the pantheon marathon is the Norse god Loki. Killing Atticus is the only loose end he needs to tie up before unleashing Ragnarok - AKA the Apocalypse. Atticus and Granuaile have to outfox the Olympians and contain the god of mischief if they want to go on living - and still have a world to live in.

De kár megvénülni!
Először azt a címet akartam adni ennek az izének (mely, fájdalom! rám nézve nem regény), hogy „egy becsületes ember gondosztettei”. Mert hát én az vagyok: becsületes ember; egyéb címem sincs: se „tisztelt hazafi”, se „szeretett polgártárs”, se „elismert szakférfiú”. Csak becsületes ember: minden pontban; még a pontok pontjában is. Mustrája vagyok a férjeknek, annyira, hogy azt beszélik rólam, hogy ha meghalok, porrá égetnek, s mint Artemízia királyné tett Mauzolusz királlya, italba keverik hamvaiamat, s úgy adogatnak be, de nem a nőknek, hanem a férjeken, mint óvó-szérumot a hűtlenség baktériumai ellen. És ez nem is lett volna rossz regénycím: egy becsületes embernek a gonoszttettei. Hanem hát ez mégis nagyon hasonlít a sviháksághoz, egy neme a hetvenkedésnek: virtuskodás olyannal, ami nincs. Sohasem szerettem a dicsekedést. Mit csidekedjem a bűnömmel? Elég, ha a feleségem így szólít, hogy „bűnöm!” Inkább választottam ezt a címet „…De kár megvénülni!” Ezzel aztán be van ismerve, hogy vén vagyok. Biz az vagyok. Az ötvenediket járom.
