Halálos elszántság
J. D. ROBB legújabb, izgalmas regényében Eve Dallas nyomozó egy kizsákmányolásra épülő, gonosz összeesküvéssel találja magát szemben...
New York, 2061. A Gyönyörakadémia néven ismert hely maga a megtestesült rémálom, ahol elrabolt lányokat tartanak fogva és arra tanítják őket, hogy lealacsonyító szolgáltatásokat nyújtsanak, miközben lelkük lassan, de biztosan romba dől. Dorian, a tizenhárom éves kislány, akit ugyancsak oda zártak, talán sohasem tudott volna elmenekülni a rabtársa, Mina segítsége nélkül, aki a szökési tervet kieszelte. Kettejük közül Mina volt a bátrabb - noha mindketten ugyanazzal a kétségbeesett elszántsággal vágtak bele a terv megvalósításába.
Sajnos nem sikerült kijutniuk elég gyorsan. Dorian sebesülten, rettegve bolyong New York utcáin, miközben Eve Dallas hadnagy Mina folyóparton heverő holttestét vizsgálja.
Mina drága, elegáns ruhái és kozmetikai cikkei arról árulkodnak Dallasnak, hogy szó szerint és átvitt értelemben is a szexipar számára tartották ennyire ápoltan - és bárki is fektetett be ebbe az igencsak pénzigényes üzletbe, hatalmas profitra számít. Eve elszántan keresi az igazságot és a nyomába ered azoknak, akik az ártatlanokra vadásznak.

Hussar Cut
In his latest book, Balázs Orbán, the political director of the Hungarian Prime Minister, delves into the shifting dynamics of the present world order. He scrutinizes the risks associated with recent trends toward decoupling and bloc formation, and, as a solution, proposes a strategic masterstroke – the "Hussar Cut" for Hungary: the Hungarian strategy of connectivity. With this strategy Hungary aspires to be a key player in its region and, through extensive connections, to mitigate the effects of today’s geopolitical confrontations. For readers seeking a profound understanding of Hungarian politics alongside situational assessments and the reasoning behind pivotal decisions, Balázs Orbán's book is a must-read.
Tucker Carlson (Political commentator) - "The Hungarian government cares foremost about Hungarians. If that shocks or offends you, you’re part of the problem and should have no power over other people. If on the other hand it sounds like exactly the sort of country you’d be grateful to live in, read this book."
Ivan Krastev (Founding Board Member of the European Council on Foreign Relations) - "Anyone who wants to know how the current Hungarian leadership sees the place of its country in the world and anybody who is interested to grasp Budapest’s “hussar cut” strategy should read Balázs Orbán’s book."
Sebastian Kurz (Former chancellor of the Republic of Austria) - "Hungary is assigned an ambitious role in world politics as a middle power maintaining extensive political relations and economic cooperation within and outside of its own natural geopolitical environment."
Kevin D. Roberts (President of The Heritage Foundation) - "In The Hussar’s Cut, Balázs Orbán eloquently and thoroughly explains Hungary’s national and geopolitical strategy—as well as how the world, especially the West, may learn from its example."
Jeffrey D. Sachs (Economist, University Professor at Columbia University, President of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network.) - "Balázs Orban’s message to Hungary and to the world is clear and correct: connect through trade and ideas; don’t build opposing blocs; take pride and guidance in ancient wisdom and culture; look both east and west; and above all, support peace! This meditation on “connectivity” will inspire readers, guide Hungary, and help the world to find the path to peace, cultural enrichment, and sustainable development."

Az önbecsülés 6 alappillére
"Az önbecsülés hat alappillére című könyvében Nathaniel Branden a klinikai praxis és kutatás egy teljes élet alatt felhalmozódott eredményeit mutatja be. Éleslátó és provokatív programjában következetesen szól az önbecsülés fontosságáról a pszichológiai egészség, a személyes teljesítmény és a pozitív kapcsolatok tekintetében.
"De mégis hogyan teszünk szert valódi önbecsülésre?" Branden bemutatja a hat alappillért - hat olyan, a mindennapi életben alkalmazható, tevőleges gyakorlatot, amelyek megalapozzák az önbecsülést -, és öt területen járja körbe az önbecsülés központi jelentőségét: a munkahelyen, a gyereknevelésben, az oktatásban, a pszichoterápiában és általában a kultúrában.
A könyve iránymutatást nyújt azoknak - tanároknak, szülőknek, menedzsereknek és terapeutáknak -, akik más emberek önbecsülésének a fejlődéséért felelnek. Emellett azt is megmutatja, hogy a mai kaotikus és versengő világban miért alapvetően fontos az önbecsülés a személyes és szakmai hatékonyságunk szempontjából.
Nathaniel Branden kanadai-amerikai pszichoterapeuta és író könyvére ma már klasszikusként, a téma legjelentősebb műveként tekintenek. Az önbecsülés hat alappillére átfogó látásmódot kínál az emberi motiváció és viselkedés területén, mindenki számára lényeges olvasmány, aki személyes vagy szakmai szinten érdeklődik az önbecsülés iránt.

The Doors of Eden
They thought we were safe. They were wrong.
Lee and Mal went looking for monsters on Bodmin Moor four years ago, and only Lee came back. She thought she'd lost Mal forever, now miraculously returned. But what happened that day on the moors? And where has Mal been all this time? Mal's reappearance hasn't gone unnoticed by MI5 either, and their officers also have questions.
Julian Sabreur is investigating an attack on top physicist Kay Amal Khan. This leads Julian to clash with agents of an unknown power - and they may or may not be human. His only clue is grainy footage, showing a woman who supposedly died on Bodmin Moor.
Dr Khan's research was theoretical; then she found cracks between our world and parallel Earths. Now these cracks are widening, revealing extraordinary creatures. And as the doors come crashing open, anything could come through.
'Inventive, funny and engrossing, this book lingers long after you close it' - Tade Thompson, Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning author of Rosewater
Adrian Tchaikovsky brought us far-future adventure with Children of Time. Now The Doors of Eden takes us from Bodmin Moor to London and alternate versions of earth. This is an extraordinary feat of the imagination and a page-turning adventure.
Hearth and Home (EN)

Lacná kniha An Echo in the Bone (-70%)
Diana Gabaldon’s brilliant storytelling has captivated millions of readers in her bestselling and award-winning Outlander saga. Now, in An Echo in the Bone, the enormously anticipated seventh volume, Gabaldon continues the extraordinary story of the eighteenth-century Scotsman Jamie Fraser and his twentieth-century time-traveling wife, Claire Randall.
Jamie Fraser, former Jacobite and reluctant rebel, is already certain of three things about the American rebellion: The Americans will win, fighting on the side of victory is no guarantee of survival, and he’d rather die than have to face his illegitimate son–a young lieutenant in the British army–across the barrel of a gun.
Claire Randall knows that the Americans will win, too, but not what the ultimate price may be. That price won’t include Jamie’s life or his happiness, though–not if she has anything to say about it.
Meanwhile, in the relative safety of the twentieth century, Jamie and Claire’s daughter, Brianna, and her husband, Roger MacKenzie, have resettled in a historic Scottish home where, across a chasm of two centuries, the unfolding drama of Brianna’s parents’ story comes to life through Claire’s letters. The fragile pages reveal Claire’s love for battle-scarred Jamie Fraser and their flight from North Carolina to the high seas, where they encounter privateers and ocean battles–as Brianna and Roger search for clues not only to Claire’s fate but to their own. Because the future of the MacKenzie family in the Highlands is mysteriously, irrevocably, and intimately entwined with life and death in war-torn colonial America.
With stunning cameos of historical characters from Benedict Arnold to Benjamin Franklin, An Echo in the Bone is a soaring masterpiece of imagination, insight, character, and adventure–a novel that echoes in the mind long after the last page is turned.

Illusion in Design
This magical volume presents the startling world of illusion in design as employed by today s architects, interior designers, furniture designers, and others at work bending the appearance of reality for purposes of aesthetics or practicality or fun. From a faux bookcase that masks a room or Prohibition-style bar, to the mind-boggling Escher-like effects achieved by Casa Ceramica, whose optical illusion of a floor dips into valleys and rises into mounds (but is in reality flat), the book is a revelation and an inspiration. It offers to us the possibility that nearly anything can be done, if it can be imagined even in our own homes. The authors look at residences across the globe, as well as spaces beyond the home, that utilize a myriad of surprising techniques. Included are projects by up-and-coming designers, such as Studio Malka and Vector Architects, as well as more established practitioners, such as Ferguson and Shamamian, G. P. Schafer, Peter Pennoyer, Robert A. M. Stern, and others.
Miután elvesztettelek
A több mint 14 millió példányban eladott Mielőtt megismertelek folytatása
Lou Clarknak rengeteg kérdése van.
Például, hogy hogy a csudába került egy reptéri bárba, ahol minden műszakját azzal tölti, hogy nézi, ahogy mások új helyekre repülnek? Vagy hogy miért nem érzi magát otthon a lakásban, amelyben már egy éve él? Vagy hogy a szűk családja vajon megbocsát-e neki egyszer? De legfőképp: túljut-e majd valaha élete nagy szerelmén?
Egy dolgot azonban biztosan tud: valaminek változnia kell.
Aztán az egyik éjszaka nem úgy alakul, ahogy a többi.
De vajon az idegen, aki a küszöbén áll, választ ad majd Lou sok kérdésére, vagy ellenkezőleg: még több kérdést vet fel? Vajon Lou-nak be kellene csuknia az ajtót, és folytatnia kellene szép, biztonságos, rendezett életét? Vagy pont ellenkezőleg: nyissa ki, és tegyen kockára mindent?
Lou egyszer régen megígérte, hogy teljes életet fog élni.
És ha be akarja tartani az ígéretét, nem zárkózhat el...
A Miután elvesztettelek egyszerre mélységesen megható és kedvesen humoros történet gyászról, szeretetről, bátorságról és élni akarásról.
