Eye of the Shoal
Seventy per cent of the earth's surface is covered by water. This vast aquatic realm is inhabited by a multitude of strange creatures and reigning supreme among them are the fish.
There are giants that live for centuries and thumb-sized tiddlers that survive only weeks; they can be pancake-flat or inflatable balloons; they can shout with colours or hide in plain sight, cheat and dance, remember and say sorry; some rarely budge while others travel the globe restlessly. And yet the mesmerising and complex lives of fish remain largely underrated and unseen, living hidden beneath the waterline, out of sight and out of mind.
Helen Scales is our guide on an underwater journey, as we fathom the depths and watch these animals going about the glorious business of being fish. As well as the fish, we meet devoted fishwatchers past and present, from voodoo zombie potion hunters and scientists who taught fish how to walk to nonagenarian explorers of the deep sea.
Woven throughout are vignettes of Helen's own aquatic explorations, from eerie nighttime dives with glowing fish and up-close encounters with giant manta rays, to floating in the middle of a swirling shoal being watched by thousands of inquisitive eyes.
As well as being a rich and entertaining read, this book will inspire readers to think again about these animals and the seas they inhabit, and to go out and appreciate the wonders of fish, whether through the glass walls of an aquarium or, better still, by gazing into the fishes' wild world and swimming through it.

The World Atlas of Coffee
Coffee has never been better, or more interesting, than it is today. Coffee producers have access to more varieties and techniques than ever before and we, as consumers, can share in that expertise to make sure the coffee we drink is the best we can find. Where coffee comes from, how it was harvested, the roasting process and the water used to make the brew are just a few of the factors that influence the taste of what we drink.
Champion barista and coffee expert James Hoffmann examines these key factors, looking at varieties of coffee, the influence of terroir, how it is harvested and processed, the roasting methods used, through to the way in which the beans are brewed. Country by country - from Bolivia to Zambia - he then identifies key characteristics and the methods that determine the quality of that country's output. Along the way we learn about everything from the development of the espresso machine, to why strength guides on supermarket coffee are really not good news.
This is the first book to chart the coffee production of over 35 countries, encompassing knowledge never previously published outside the coffee industry. For everyone who wants to understand more about coffee and its wonderful nuances and possibilities, this is the book to have
World of Warcraft: Traveler 2. - Kanyargó ösvény - Felfedező-trilógia 2.
A tizenkét éves Aramar Thorne élete a feje tetejére állt, amikor az apja, Greydon Thorne kapitány váratlanul felbukkant, hogy magával vigye a tengerre. Ám alig néhány hónappal azután, hogy a fedélzetre lépett, Greydon hajóját veszedelmes fosztogatók támadták meg, akiket csak úgy ismernek: a Rejtőzők. Aram és a másodtiszt Makasa a támadást követően hajótörést szenvedtek, ám az igazi gondot azok a megválaszolatlan kérdések jelentik, amelyeket Thorne kapitány hagyott hátra. Kik a Rejtőzők? És micsoda valójában az a különös, sosem az északi irányt mutató iránytű, amelyet Greydon adott a fiának? Mialatt próbálják kibogozni a rejtélyeket, Aram és Makasa Azerothot járva néhány új barátra és számos ellenségre is szert tesznek. Jóllehet Aram nemrég még nehezen boldogult a nagyvilágban, a barátai most tőle várnak útmutatást, miközben élőhalottakkal harcolnak és szembekerülnek a trollok titokzatos isteneivel is. Már csak az a kérdés, képes-e Aram azzá a vezetővé válni, akiről az apja mindig is úgy hitte, hogy ott lakozik benne?

History of Wolves
Linda has an idiosyncratic home life: her parents live in abandoned commune cabins in northern Minnesota and are hanging on to the last vestiges of a faded counter-culture world. The kids at school call her 'Freak', or 'Commie'. She is an outsider in all things. Her understanding of the world comes from her observations at school, where her teacher is accused of possessing child pornography, and from watching the seemingly ordinary life of a family she babysits for. Yet while the accusation against the teacher is perhaps more innocent than it seemed at first, the ordinary family turns out to be more complicated. As Linda insinuates her way into the family's orbit, she realises they are hiding something. If she tells the truth, she will lose the normal family life she is beginning to enjoy with them; and if she doesn't, a life is at stake. Superbly-paced and beautifully written, HISTORY OF WOLVES is an extraordinary debut novel about the lengths a person will go to find the life they desire...
