Once Upon a Time I Lived on Mars
A powerful reflection on life in isolation, in pursuit of the dream of Mars.
In 2013 Kate Greene moved to Mars.
On NASA's first HI-SEAS simulated Mars mission in Hawaii, she lived for four months in an isolated geodesic dome with her crewmates, gaining incredible insight into human behaviour in tight quarters, as well as the nature of boredom, dreams and isolation that arise amidst the promise of scientific progress and glory. Greene draws on her experience to contemplate what makes an astronaut, the challenges of freeze-dried eggs and time-lagged correspondence, the cost of shooting for a Planet B.
The result is a story of space and life, of the slippage between dreams and reality, of bodies in space, and of humanity's incredible impulse to explore.
From trying out life on Mars, Greene examines what it is to live on Earth.
'In her thoughtful, well-written account of the mission, Greene reflects on what this and other space missions can teach us about ourselves and life on Earth.' Physics Today

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring Pt. 1 (Lord of the Rings 1)
The first ever illustrated paperback of part one of Tolkien's epic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings, featuring 19 colour paintings by Alan Lee. Sauron, the Dark Lord, has gathered to him all the Rings of Power -- the means by which he intends to rule Middle-earth. All he lacks in his plans for dominion is the One Ring -- the ring that rules them all -- which has fallen into the hands of the hobbit, Bilbo Baggins. In a sleepy village in the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds himself faced with an immense task, as his elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to his care. Frodo must leave his home and make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ring and foil the Dark Lord in his evil purpose. J.R.R. Tolkien's great work of imaginative fiction has been labelled both a heroic romance and a classic fantasy fiction. By turns comic and homely, epic and diabolic, the narrative moves through countless changes of scene and character in an imaginary world which is totally convincing in its detail.Part of a set of three paperbacks, this classic edition is available in a smart new livery, and is illustrated by Alan Lee throughout to complement the new paperback of The Children of Hurin.

The Hundred Loves of Juliet
Epic. Legendary. Irrevocable. Romeo and Juliet as you have never seen them before.
I may go by Sebastien now, but my name was originally Romeo. And hers was Juliet.
It's a frosty fairytale of an evening when Helene and Sebastien meet for the first time. Except it isn't the first time. You already know that story, though it didn't happen quite as Shakespeare told it.
To Helene, Sebastien is the flesh-and-blood hero of the love stories she's spent her life writing. But Sebastien knows better - Helene is his Juliet, and their story has always been the same. He is doomed to find brief happiness with her over and over, before she dies, and he is left to mourn.
Albrecht and Brigitta. Matteo and Amélie. Jack and Rachel. Marius and Cosmina. By any name, no matter where and when in time, the two of them are drawn together, and it always ends in tragedy.
This time, Helene is determined that things will be different. But can these star-cross'd lovers forge a new ending to the greatest love story of all time?

The Fox
'Forsyth deserves his place among the thriller greats.' The Times
'The master of the modern espionage novel returns . . . this is Forsyth at his spellbinding best.' Daily Mail
Most weapons do what you tell them. Most weapons you can control.
But what if the most dangerous weapon in the world isn't a smart missile or a stealth submarine or even an AI computer programme?What if it's a 17-year-old boy with a blisteringly brilliant mind, who can run rings around the most sophisticated security services across the globe, who can manipulate that weaponry and turn it against the superpowers themselves?How valuable would he be? And what wouldn't you do to get hold of him?
The Fox is a race-against-time thriller across continents to find and capture, or protect and save, an asset with the means to change the balance of world power. Whatever happens he must not fall into the wrong hands. Because what follows after that is unthinkable...

Vastündérek 2: The Iron Daughter - Vashercegnő
Meghan sosem találta a helyét a világban. Azt hitte, a Téli Udvar hercege szereti, ám ő elhagyta, és Meghan most a Téltündérkirálynő foglya. A nyár és a Tél háborújának közepette Meghan tudja, hogy a valódi veszélyt a Vastündérek jelentik - azok a vasból született lények, akiket csak ő és a távol lévő herceg látott. Azonban senki sem hisz neki.
Ami még rosszabb, Meghan tündérereje eltűnt. Csak a saját eszére hagyatkozva kell boldogulnia Tündérföldön, ahol bárkiben megbízni ostobaság, egy árulóban halálos hiba. De hiába válik végül Meghan maga is vaskeménnyé, mégsem szűnik emberszívében a vágyakozó suttogás.
Vastündérek 1: The Iron King - Vaskirály
Meghan Chase-re titkokkal teli sors vár - olyan, amit még kigondolni sem tudott volna.
Valami furcsa mindig volt Meghan életében; már hatéves kora óta, amikor édesapja eltűnt a szemel elől. Az iskolában sem tudott teljesen beilleszkedni... és otthon sem.
Amikor egy gyanús idegen kezdi távolról figyelni, és tréfakedvelő legjobb barátja egyszeriben a védelmezőjévé válik, Meghan érzi, hogy minden meg fog változni, amit csak ismer.
De a valóságot álmában sem tudta volna elképzelni - hogy ő egy mesebeli Tündérkirály lánya, és egyben tehetetlen báb egy öldöklő háborúban. De idővel kiderül, mire hajlandó azért, hogy megmentsen valakit, akit szeret, vagy hogy útját állja egy rejtelmes gonosznak, akivel egyetlen tündér sem mer szembenézni
és hogy megtalálja-e a szerelmet egy ifjú herceggel, aki szívesebben látná őt holtan, semhogy közel engedje jeges szívéhez.
The Good Soldier Švejk
Hasek's most important work was centered around the deeply funny story of a hapless Czech soldier in the Austro-Hungarian army -- dismissed for incompetence only to be pressed into service by the Russians in World War I (where he is captured by his own troops). A mischief-maker, bohemian and drunk, Hasek demonstrated his wit in this classic novel of the Czech character and preposterous nature of war.

Carrot cake murder
Between baking up a storm for The Cookie Jar and unravelling the mystery of her cat Moishe's recent strange behaviour, Hannah Swensen has a lot on her plate. But she'll always make time for her business partner, Lisa, who's in the midst of preparing for a big family reunion. Everyone is delighted when Lisa's long-lost uncle makes a surprise appearance. No one has heard from Gus in twenty-five years. Uncle Gus is immediately the hit of the reunion. He's almost as popular as Hannah's scrumptious carrot cake, which is also Gus' favourite dessert. But the next morning, as the whole family gathers for the group photo, one person is missing. Hannah offers to track down Uncle Gus, but her search leads to a shocking find. Over by the bar at the pavilion, she spots two slices of her infamous carrot cake, frosting-side down on the floor - and Gus' corpse with an ice pick jutting out of his chest!Now Hannah's got to sift through a long list of suspects to find a killer - even if it could mean a recipe for her own demise...
