Magnus Chase and the Ship of the Dead
Rick Riordan's Norse hero faces his greatest challenge yet in the final instalment of the series.
Loki the trickster god is free from his chains. Now he's readying Naglfar, the Ship of the Dead, armed with a host of giants and zombies, to sail against the Norse gods and begin the final battle of Ragnarok. It's up to Magnus Chase and his friends to stop Loki's plans, but to do so they will have to sail across the oceans of Midgard, Jotunheim and Niflheim in a desperate race to reach Naglfar before it's ready to sail on Midsummer's Day.
Along the way, they will face angry sea gods, hostile giants, and an evil fire-breathing dragon who happens to be a former acquaintance. But Magnus's biggest challenge will be facing his own inner demons. To defeat Loki, Magnus will need to use words, not force. This will require finding a magical elixir so deadly that it will either make Magnus Chase powerful enough to out-talk the silver-tongued Loki, or destroy Magnus utterly.
Malala The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Changed the World
Written by Malala for her peers, this is the girl behind the Nobel Prize-winning icon. Film tie-in edition with HE NAMED ME MALALA, released 6th November, which tells Malala's story from Nobel Peace Prize to netball courts. Malala is the most significant teenager of the twenty first century. She was only ten years old when the Taliban took control of her region. They said music was a crime. They said women weren't allowed to go to the market. They said girls couldn't go to school. Raised in a once-peaceful area of Pakistan transformed by terrorism, Malala was taught to stand up for what she believes. So she fought for her right to be educated. And on 9 October, 2012, she nearly lost her life for the cause. She was shot point-blank on her way home from school. No one expected her to survive. Now she is an international symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest-ever Nobel Peace Prize winner. This is the remarkable story of a girl who knew from a young age that she wanted to change the world-and did. It will open your eyes to another world and will make you believe in hope, truth, miracles, and the determination of one person to inspire change. 'It's a searing and personal portrait of a young woman who dared to make a difference' PW.

The Man Who Was Thursday: a Nightmare
The Man Who Was Thursday: A Nightmare is a novel by G. K. Chesterton, first published in 1908. The book has been referred to as a metaphysical thriller.Although it deals with anarchists, the novel is not an exploration or rebuttal of anarchist thought; Chesterton's ad hoc construction of "Philosophical Anarchism" is distinguished from ordinary anarchism and is referred to several times not so much as a rebellion against government but as a rebellion against God.The novel has been described as "one of the hidden hinges of twentieth-century writing, the place where, before our eyes, the nonsense-fantastical tradition of Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear pivots and becomes the nightmare-fantastical tradition of Kafka and Borges."

The Life And Adventures Of Nicholas Nickleby
Left penniless by the death of his improvident father, young Nicholas Nickleby assumes responsibility for his mother and sister and seeks help from his Scrooge-like Uncle Ralph. Instantly disliking Nicholas, Ralph sends him to teach in a school run by the stupidly sadistic Wackford Squeers. Nicholas decides to escape, taking with him the orphan Smike, one of Squeers’s most abused young charges, and the two embark on a series of adventurous encounters with an array of humanity’s worst and best—greedy fools, corrupt lechers, cheery innocents, and selfless benefactors.

Lacná kniha Made in Sweden (-70%)
Nad medveďom môžeš vyhrať len vtedy, keď budeš tancovať a správne udierať.
Všetko je nacvičené. Sekunda za sekundou. Každý pohyb na mieste. Nebude jeden jediný svedok, ktorý by mohol informovať o tom, čo sa stalo. Nijaký policajt nenájde stopy vedúce k páchateľom. Potom príde opojný pocit a uvoľnenie. Veľké akvárium pre zlatú rybku plné peňazí.
Pred mnohými rokmi, keď sa rodina rozpadávala, sa traja bratia zomkli. Leo, Felix, Vincent. Tyranský otec ich učil vždy nemilosrdne vrátiť úder. Chlapci boli dokonale školení v násilí, pretože v ňom vyrastali.
Všetko sa začalo prepadom muničného skladu, neskôr transportného vozidla plného peňazí. Potom už lúpeže nasledujú jedna za druhou. Veľa sa strieľa, no nevyhasne ani jeden ľudský život. Páchatelia sa vynoria odnikiaľ a okamžite bez stopy zmiznú. Nikdy nemajú dosť. Švédsko je zdesené a plné obáv.
Vyšetrovanie prvej lúpeže peňazí pridelia mimoriadne schopnému kriminalistovi Johnovi Broncksovi, naplno oddanému svojej práci. On jediný vie, ako na záhadnú Vojenskú ligu. Pochopí, akú taktiku používajú. No kým bratia držia spolu, sú neporaziteľní...

Rolling Stones, The - Voodoo Lounge Uncut BD
Kultovní rocková kapela Rolling Stones vydává nově sestříhaný, remixovaný a remasterovaný archivní koncertní film Voodoo Lounge Uncut, který byl natočený 25. listopadu 1994 v Miami na stadionu Joe Robbieho během světového turné k desce Voodoo Lounge. Mezi hosty se objeví například Sheryl Crow, Robert Cray nebo Bo Diddley. Nová verze filmu obsahuje deset dosud nezveřejněných vystoupení a pět bonusových písní z Giants Stadium v New Jersey, které v Miami nezazněly. Série nahrávek, která zobrazuje Rolling Stones na koncertní šňůře v polovině devadesátých let, vyjde 16. listopadu.
Mezi skladby, které se na Voodoo Lounge Uncut objeví, patří například Not Fade Away, You Got Me Rocking, (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction, Sympathy For The Devil nebo Jumpin' Jack Flash.
Voodoo Lounge Tour začalo v dubnu 1994, trvalo přibližně rok a obsahovalo 134 koncertů na šesti kontinentech, které shlédlo přes 6, 5 milionu fanoušků, čímž se turné stalo svého času vůbec největším. Voodoo Lounge album se v roce svého vydání stalo bezkonkurenčním číslem jedna po celém světě. V roce 1995 dokonce vyhrálo Grammy za nejlepší rockové album.
Rolling Stones jsou kapelou, která je od svého počátku v roce 1962, kdy byli protipólem svatouškovských Beatles, nedomyslitelným pilířem rockové hudby. O tom vypovídá i jejich zařazení na čtvrté místo v žebříčku padesáti nesmrtelných interpretů rock'n'rollu časopisu Rolling Stone, dvojnásobný zisk Grammy za celoživotní dílo a uvedení do Rock'n'rollové síně slávy. Tvrdé jádro kapely tvoří na rytíře pasovaný zpěvák Mick Jagger a kytarový mág s životním příběhem rebela Keith Richards.

The Complete Mapp and Lucia, Volume 2 (EN)
Sharply observant and wickedly funny, E. F. Benson’s six ‘Mapp and Lucia’ novels satirise the upper-middle-class social climbers in 1920s and ’30s rural England. Games of bridge and cups of tea fuel hilarious gossip and vindictive plots a-plenty. It is a masterfully sustained spotlight on the minutiae of village life – a clever and ultimately heart-warming series that seems tailor-made for audio.
