The Wallet of Kai Lung
The Wallet of Kai Lung is a collection of fantasy stories by Ernest Bramah, all but the last of which feature Kai Lung, an itinerant story-teller of ancient China. It was first published in hardcover in London by Grant Richards in 1900, and there have been numerous editions since. Its initial tale, The Transmutation of Ling, was also issued by the same publisher as a separate chapbook in 1911. The collection's importance in the history of fantasy literature was recognized by the anthologization of two of its tales in the celebrated Ballantine Adult Fantasy Series, edited by Lin Carter and published by Ballantine Books; "The Vision of Yin" in Discoveries in Fantasy (March, 1972), and "The Transmutation of Ling" in Great Short Novels of Adult Fantasy Volume II (March, 1973).Although the collection is presented in the fashion of a novel, with each of its component stories designated chapters, there is no overall plot aside from each of the first eight tales being presented as narratives told by Kai Lung at various points in his itinerant career. The final tale is represented as being from a manuscript left by its own separate first-person narrator, Kin Yen.

The Geek's Guide to Wizarding Mastery in One Epic Tome
Not all wizards were born to be heroes.
Things not to do when you find out you’re a wizard:
#1 Do not destroy your apartment with magical fire. You WILL NOT get the security deposit back.#2 Do not form an alliance with the guy who is trying to murder you. This will end badly.#3 Do not drag the girl you’re desperately in love with into your wizard mess. You risk her watching you fail miserably.#4 Under no circumstances should you get in the middle of an epic magical battle. Death will happen. Lots of death and bad things.
This Epic Tome contains all four books in The Tale of Bryant Adams:How I Magically Messed Up My Life in Four Freakin' DaysSeven Things Not to Do When Everyone's Trying to Kill YouThree Simple Steps to Wizarding DominationFive Spellbinding Laws of International Larceny
Praise for How I Magically Messed Up My Life in Four Freakin’ Days
“This is a magical, fast-paced, fantasy packed—with a lovely dose of modern day teen—ride.” – Tonja
“How I Magically Messed Up My Life in Four Freakin' Days by Megan O'Russell is the funniest book for teens/middle grade I have read in so long!” – M.W.

Author Interview
Why did you choose to write a fantasy book that heavily involves a cell phone?
Phones are a huge part of everyday life. Smart phone are these tiny pieces of massive technology we use everyday without really thinking about how astounding they are. But what if phones could be used for more than just scrolling through social media? What if an entire magical library could be hidden in your pocket? I wanted modern convenience to meet magic in a new way.
What does Bryant Adams bring to the world of wizards that readers haven’t seen before?
Bryant Adams is not your standard hero. He is not the chosen one, and the world may be doomed if he’s in charge of saving us all.
Bryant is a geek—the nerdy sidekick of the coolest kid in high school—who’s trying really hard to survive being a wizard but is too terrified to talk to the girl of his dreams.
He’s just a boy trying to get through his teen years without too much emotional damage…and then magic happens.
Who would enjoy this book?
If you like humor with a touch of snark, romance with a hint of wit, and magic that might destroy the world as we know it, Bryant Adams is the wizard for you.

Harlow, Jack - Come Home The Kids Miss You CD
KDO: Hudebník z Louisville v Kentucky se rapu věnuje od roku 2011, ale skutečného věhlasu se dočkal až v roce 2020, kdy bouchnul jeho track Whats Poppin. Následovaly další velmi úspěšné singly a albový debut Thats What They All Say, který startoval na pátém místě amerického žebříčku. Výsledkem bylo několik hvězdných kolaborací, z nichž nejvýraznější je spolupráce s Lil Nas X na skladbě Industry Baby (číslo 1 v US hitparádě). Méně se ví, že Jack Harlow působí i v kolektivu Private Garden.
CO: Druhé album rapového génia z Kentucky. Jde o jednu z nejočekávanějších desek roku 2022 na hiphopové scéně. Jack Harlow si do studia pozval hned několik velkých jmen, někteří z hostů už nejsou příliš aktivní a jde tedy o hodně exkluzivní účast (Justin Timberlake, Pharrell, dále Drake a Lil Wayne). Hudebně je kolekce kombinací moderního trapového zvuku a old-school vlivů.

The Ravenhood 3. – Célvonal
"Az egyetlen szerelem, amit valaha ismertem vagy amire sóvárogtam, az beteggé tesz, belebetegszem a vágyakozásba, a kéjvágyba, a nyomorúságba és a bánatba. Abba az eltorzult érzésbe, ami sebeket és megcsömörlött szívet hagy hátra".
Tobias King a háttérbe húzódva töltötte eddig az élete legjavát. Magányos farkas és könyörtelen tolvaj, aki sosem tagadta, hogy semmirekellő. A Ravenhoodként ismert titokzatos társaság vezetőjeként egyetlen becságy fűti: a bosszú.
De törekvéseit derékba töri az, amikor beleszeret abba a nőbe, aki tönkre tehet mindent, amit két évtizeden át tervezett. Cecilia Horner iránti mindent felemésztő szenvedélyéért nagy árat kell fizetnie, egyebek közt elveszíthet mindent, ami számára kedves.
De Tobias harcos, és elszánja magát, hogy mindent megszerez: leszámol a régi sérelmekért és visszaszerzi a nőt, akit szeret...
Kate Stewart "Ravenhood" trilógiája elvarázsolta a TikTok közönségét világszerte.
A merész, szexi, romantikus, korunkba átültetett Robin Hood-történet lélegzetelállító fordulatai és elsöprő érzelmei magával ragadnak, és nem eresztenek.
Ez a szokatlan, és tabudöntögető szerelmi történet mindvégig töretlen izgalmat ígér, rejtélyekkel, szexiséggel, függőséget okozó rosszfiúkkal, akcióval és ÉRZELMEK SOKASÁGÁVAL.

The Art of Folding 2: New Techniques and Materials. Fashion, Architecture, Interior and Product Design
The art of folding is traditionally seen purely in terms of ori- gami and structures in paper, today it is used in many creative fields: design, architecture, industry, furniture, clothes, jew- els... These new domains are accompanied by a wide range of media and materials: cardboard, textile, metal, plastic... They all finally give in to the infinite resources of folding.
This widely illustrated book, built around portraits and inter- views with creators which present their vision of the art of folding and its applications in their various productions, is an overview of these new and promising formal investigations. In this volume architect and origami expert Jean-Charles Trebbi cooperates with the architecture partners Guillaume Bounoure and Chloe Genevaux, who specialized in experi- mental applications of folding techniques with new materials. The book includes ten folding templates.
