United States Of Jihad
A riveting, panoramic look at homegrown Islamist terrorism from 9/11 to the present Since 9/11, more than three hundred Americans born and raised in Minnesota, Alabama, New Jersey, and elsewhere have been indicted or convicted of terrorism charges. Some have taken the fight abroad: an American was among those who planned the attacks in Mumbai, and more than eighty U.S. citizens have been charged with ISIS-related crimes. Others have acted on American soil, as with the attacks at Fort Hood, the Boston Marathon, and in San Bernardino. What motivates them, how are they trained, and what do we sacrifice in our efforts to track them? Paced like a detective story, "United States of Jihad"tells the entwined stories of the key actors on the American front. Among the perpetrators are Anwar al-Awlaki, the New Mexico-born radical cleric who became the first American citizen killed by a CIA drone and who mentored the Charlie Hebdo shooters; Samir Khan, whose "Inspire" webzine has rallied terrorists around the world, including the Tsarnaev brothers; and Omar Hammami, an Alabama native and hip hop fan who became a fixture in al Shabaab s propaganda videos until fatally displeasing his superiors. Drawing on his extensive network of intelligence contacts, from the National Counterterrorism Center and the FBI to the NYPD, Peter Bergen also offers an inside look at the controversial tactics of the agencies tracking potential terrorists from infiltrating mosques to massive surveillance; at the bias experienced by innocent observant Muslims at the hands of law enforcement; at the critics and defenders of U.S. policies on terrorism; and at how social media has revolutionized terrorism. Lucid and rigorously researched, "United States of Jihad" is an essential new analysis of the Americans who have embraced militant Islam both here and abroad."

Islam: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions)
Islam features widely in the news, often in its most militant versions, but few people in the non-Muslim world really understand the nature of Islam. Malise Ruthven's Very Short Introduction contains essential insights into issues such as why Islam has such major divisions between movements such as the Shi'ites, the Sunnis, and the Wahhabis, and the central importance of the Shar'ia (Islamic law) in Islamic life. It also offers fresh perspectives on contemporary questions: Why is the greatest 'Jihad' (holy war) now against the enemies of Islam, rather than the struggle against evil? Can women find fulfilment in Islamic societies? How must Islam adapt as it confronts the modern world?

Angel in the Shadows
Ambitious, intricate, riveting' The Times
Farah Hafez raised her head and stared into the camcorder's reflective black hole.
'Now say what I want you to say. And do it convincingly. You can save this girl's life.'
That's when the words came. Unexpected and forceful. Like vomit.
'I, Farah Hafez, support the jihad against President Potanin's criminal regime.'
He smiled coldly and pulled the trigger anyway.
After investigating what appeared to be a simple hit-and-run, journalist Farah Hafez became caught up in a web of crime and corruption that led to her kidnap. Detained in Russia, she was forced to pledge her allegiance to a terrorist group on camera.
Now sought by international security and members of the criminal class alike, Farah flees to Jakarta to continue her investigation while her friends and allies attempt to clear her name from across the globe.
If Farah is ever going to regain her freedom, she needs to discover the root of the evil that bought her here. The problem is that discovering this might cost her her life.
Following Butterfly on the Storm, Angel in the Shadows is a fast-paced, tense and explosive thriller for lovers of Stieg Larsson's Millennium series. You won't want to put this down.

Az Iszlám Állam fogságában
Daniel Rye dán fényképész tizenhárom hónapon át volt az Iszlám Állam nevű terrorszervezet, az ISIS foglya Szíriában. 2014 júniusában hatalmas váltságdíj fejében szabadult, s nem sokkal később fogvatartói, köztük a hírhedt Dzsihád John, elkezdték kivégezni a többi túszt.
Daniel a neves dán újságírónőnek, Puk Damsgard-nak mesélte el a történetét, aki megrázó dokumentumregényt írt belőle.
Az Iszlám Állam fogságában a túlélés könyve, tényfeltáró beszámoló, amely a Daniel Ryéval és családjával készült számos interjú és beszélgetés alapján született, s nemcsak azt mutatja be az Olvasónak, hogy milyen borzalmakat kellett elszenvednie Danielnek, hanem azt is, hogy milyen lehetetlen dilemmákkal szembesült, és milyen idegölő tárgyalásokat folytatott a családja az emberrablókkal.
A szerző beszélt fogolytársakkal, dzsihadistákkal, szakértőkkel és informátorokkal, és ritka bepillantást enged annak a túsztárgyalónak a titkos műveleteibe, aki Daniel és fogolytársa, a Dzsihád John által lefejezett James Foley amerikai újságíró felkutatásán és kiszabadításán dolgozott.
S mindeközben a szerző feltárja annak a konfliktusnak a történelmi és politikai gyökereit is, amely az Iszlám Államot létrehozta, azokkal a hóhérokkal együtt, akik élvezetet találnak mások megkínzásában és legyilkolásában.
A könyv egyben főhajtás a meggyilkoltak, a még mindig fogságban lévők és a túlélők, valamint családjuk előtt.
Puk Damsgard hosszú évekig élt Afganisztánban és Pakisztánban, 2011-től a dán közszolgálati rádió közel-kelet tudósítója. Újságírói és írói tevékenységét számos díjjal ismerték el; Az Iszlám Állam fogságában című könyvével, mely nemcsak Dániában, hanem sok más európai országban is bestseller lett, elnyerte a különleges újságírói teljesítményért járó tekintélyes Cavling-díjat.

Equations of Life
Samuil Petrovitch is a survivor. He survived the nuclear fallout in St. Petersburg and hid in the London Metrozone - the last city in England. He's lived this long because he's a man of rules and logic. For example: GETTING INVOLVED = A BAD IDEA. But when he stumbles into a kidnapping in progress, he acts without even thinking. Before he can stop himself, he's saved the daughter of the most dangerous man in London. And clearly: SAVING THE GIRL = GETTING INVOLVED. Now, the equation of Petrovitch's life is looking increasingly complex: RUSSIAN MOBSTERS + YAKUZA + SOMETHING CALLED THE NEW MACHINE JIHAD = ONE DEAD PETROVITCH. But Petrovitch has a plan - he always has a plan - he's just not sure it's a good one.

Them
With an introduction by Russell Brand What if a tiny, shadow elite rule the world from a secret room? My worryingly paradoxical thought process could be summarized thus: Thank God I don't believe in the secret rulers of the world. Imagine what the secret rulers of the world might do to me if I did. What if a tiny, shadow elite rule the world from a secret room? In Them Jon Ronson sets out to find this room, with the help of the extremists - Islamic fundamentalists, neo-Nazis, Ku Klux Klansmen - that believe in it. Along the way, he is chased by men in dark glasses, unmasked as a Jew in the middle of a Jihad training camp, and witnesses international CEOs and politicians participate in a bizarre pagan ritual in the forests of northern California. A Sunday Times bestseller and the book that launched Jon Ronson's inimitable career, Them is an eye-opening, outrageously funny exploration of extremism, which makes both author and reader think twice about the looking-glass world of 'us' and 'them' ...

Az építészinas
A modern Seherezádé, a legnépszerűbb török írónő legújabb története - egy kisfiúról, aki tizenkét évesen elefánthajcsárnak kerül a híres és hírhedt Hürrem szultána udvarába.
"- Mondd meg nekem, mi lenne a megfelelő ajándék egy olyan embernek, akinek mindene megvan?
- Egy elefánt, nagyságos uram. A Föld legnagyobb állata."
A helyszín Isztambul, az időpont a tizenhatodik század. Tizenéves potyautas érkezik hajón a városba, különleges ajándékot hoz Szulejmán szultánnak. A kisfiúnak nincs senkije és semmije, csak Csota, a ritka és értékes fehér elefánt, amelyet a szeráj, vagyis a palota állatkertjébe szántak. Így kezdődik a kis Dzsihán eposzi léptékű története, amelynek során egyszerű szolgából a szultáni udvar előkelőségei közé emelkedik. Megismerkedik ármánykodó udvaroncokkal és hamis barátokkal, vándorcigányokkal, állatszelídítőkkel és a gyönyörű, pajkos Mihrimah hercegnővel. Csota hátán eljut az Oszmán Birodalom legtávolabbi sarkaiba, és ott lesz Szigetvár ostrománál.
Egy napon felfigyel rá a szultán főépítésze, Szinán mester, és ez a véletlen találkozás nagyot fordít Dzsihán sorsán.
Az építészinas színpompás kaleidoszkóp, benne vannak az Oszmán Birodalom illatai, hangjai, csodái és mindenféle lakói abból az időből, amikor a nyüzsgő Isztambul volt a világ közepe. Elif Shafak lebilincselő, egzotikus meséje rabul ejti az Olvasót, és nem ereszti el a legutolsó oldalig.
