Shards of Earth
From the author of the thrilling science-fiction epic Children of Time, winner of the prestigious Arthur C. Clarke Award. Shards of Earth is the first high-octane, far-future space adventure in Adrian Tchaikovsky' Final Architecture trilogy.
'One of the most interesting and accomplished writers in speculative fiction' - Christopher Paolini
The war is over.
Its heroes forgotten.
Until one chance discovery . . .
Idris has neither aged nor slept since they remade his mind in the war. And one of humanity's heroes now scrapes by on a freelance salvage vessel, to avoid the attention of greater powers.
Eighty years ago, Earth was destroyed by an alien enemy. Many escaped, but millions more died. So mankind created enhanced humans such as Idris - who could communicate mind-to-mind with our aggressors. Then these 'Architects' simply disappeared and Idris and his kind became obsolete.
Now, Idris and his crew have something strange, abandoned in space. It's clearly the work of the Architects - but are they really returning? And if so, why? Hunted by gangsters, cults and governments, Idris and his crew race across the galaxy as they search for answers. For they now possess something of incalculable value, and many would kill to obtain it.
Stepping Up
'Stop EVERYTHING and read this! Funny, tender and beautifully observed. Loved, loved, LOVED it!' Cathy Bramley, Sunday Times bestselling author
Beth has never stuck at anything.
She's quit more jobs and relationships than she can remember and she still sleeps in her childhood bedroom. It's not that she hasn't tried to grow up, it's just that so far, the only commitment she's held down is Friday drinks at the village pub.
Then, in the space of a morning, her world changes.
An unspeakable tragedy turns Beth's life upside down, and she finds herself guardian to her teenage niece and toddler nephew, catapulted into an unfamiliar world of bedtime stories, parents' evenings and cuddly elephants. Having never been responsible for anyone - or anything - it's not long before she feels seriously out of her depth.
What if she's simply not up to the job?
With a little help from her best friend Jory (purely platonic, of course ...) and her lovely, lonely next-door neighbour, Albert, Beth is determined that this time she's not giving up. It's time to step up.
This is a story about digging deep for strength you never knew you had and finding magic in things that were there all along.

Osmnáct pod nulou
Třetí temný případ Fabiana Riska. Třetí mrazivý thriller z pera švédského bestselleristy Stefana Ahnhema. Automobilová honička u helsingborského přístavu skončí pro jeden vůz tragicky – pádem do ledových vod. Na předním sedadle je nalezen jeden z nejvlivnějších švédských podnikatelů v oblasti IT. Vše nasvědčuje tomu, že šlo o nehodu, ale důkladnější ohledání těla odhalí, že bylo zmrazeno. Ještě podivnější je doba úmrtí: dva měsíce před událostí v docích. Navíc někdo tvrdí, že oběť viděl ještě před týdnem živou a zdravou. Zdá se, že vrah převzal její totožnost. Fabian Risk brzy zjistí, že to pachatel neudělal poprvé. A ani naposled…

Never Ever Getting Back Together
Romance, revenge, and reality TV. The new queer YA rom-com from Sophie Gonzales, bestselling author of Only Mostly Devastated.
Eighteen-year-old Maya dumped her cheating ex-boyfriend Jordy two years ago. So, when she receives a call to participate in Second Chance Romance - a reality show in which the now-famous Jordy re-dates his ex-girlfriends - she isn't interested . . . until she realizes she can use this opportunity to exact her revenge. If she can make it to the final spot on the show, she can reject Jordy in front of the nation, and publicly break his heart.
Maya's fellow contestants include Skye, the beautiful, charismatic girl Jordy cheated on Maya with. Skye charms the socks off everyone she meets, except for Maya, who knows that underneath all the sparkle, she's the girl who dated her boyfriend while he was still her boyfriend.
The reality show is a challenging environment. Amidst backstabbing, bickering, and having to see Jordy again, Maya finds herself becoming friends with Skye. Together, they come up with a plan for the ultimate revenge on Jordy.
But as she spends more time with Jordy and Skye, Maya is torn. Is Jordy a good guy who made a mistake? Is there more than friendship between her and Skye? As the season finale approaches, can Maya execute her plan, or will she go off-script?

That something turned out to be part ownership in a professional football team.Next thing I knew, I was learning a sport I knew nothing about by spending time with the team’s quarterback who was out with an injury, a man who my formula would definitely determine was all wrong for me.Christian Knox was too handsome and confident for his own good and could have any woman he wanted. Only lately the only woman he seemed to want was me.But there was no way I was getting involved when I was now his boss, even if he was insanely gorgeous and had the dirtiest mouth I’d ever come across.It would be wrong, wouldn’t it? Probably. But you know what they say about things that are wrong...sometimes they feel so right.

Az idő jól eltöltésének módja
Mikes ?Kelemen rodostói száműzetésében fordította le Antoine de Courtin Traité de la paresse, ou l'art de bien employer le temps, en forme d'entretiens (1673) című erkölcsnevelő kis munkáját, melynek témája a restség, annak gyarló emberi megnyilvánulásai és minden káros következménye, illetve a rest életmód elleni orvosság. Courtin francia arisztokrata körökben és a svéd Krisztina királynő udvarában forgolódva szerzett tapasztalatokat a korabeli főrendek szokásairól, erkölcseiről, s ezek nemesítésére, az élvezetekben, játékban és más céltalan foglalatosságokban fölélt energiák hasznosítására, s természetesen az Istennek tetsző, tevékeny életre szándékozott oktatni kortársait, immáron mindenféle renden lévőkhöz szólva. Az oktatás szárazságát Courtin – és Mikes még tovább – azzal oldja, hogy kerettörténetbe, hétköznapi cselekménybe ágyazza, dialogizálja az értekezést: hat napon keresztül folytatott „beszélgetés” formájában nyújt hasznos és szórakoztató olvasmányt.Az 1720-as évek végén, amikor Mikes – feltehetően – Courtin művét magyarította, Rákóczi kamarásaként őt is hasonló gond kínozhatta: az idő jól eltöltésének módja. S amellett, hogy – a fordítás érzékletességének tanúsága szerint – valóban jól töltötte idejét munka közben, számunkra is értékes könyvet alkotott. Értékes mindenekelőtt kordokumentumként, hiszen a benne rejlő életanyag és morálfilozófia nemcsak általános európai, hanem hazai viszonyainkra is jellemző – Mikes kedvvel csempészi személyes tapasztalatait Courtiné mellé vagy helyére –; de érdekes a mű Mikes munkásságának jobb megértése szempontjából is, hiszen nemcsak mint fordító vizsgázik benne kitűnően, hanem szellemes újrateremtőnek is bizonyul. Önálló, invenciózus betoldásai, aktualizálásai, átszerkesztései és tömörítései saját írói kvalitásának, ismeretkörének, gondolkodásmódjának teljesebb megértéséhez segítik hozzá az érdeklődő olvasót. És végül érdeklődésre tarthat számot Mikes munkása a magyar fordításirodalom fejlődésének, szokásainak és eredményeinek áttekintése szempontjából is.

Tiger Woods
Based on three years of extensive research and reporting, two of today's most acclaimed investigative journalists, Jeff Benedict of Sports Illustrated and eleven-time Emmy Award winner Armen Keteyian, deliver the first major biography of Tiger Woods - sweeping in scope and packed with groundbreaking, behind-the-scenes details of the Shakespearean rise and epic fall of a global icon.
In 2009, Tiger Woods was the most famous athlete on the planet, a transcendent star of almost unfathomable fame and fortune living what appeared to be the perfect life - married to a Swedish beauty and the father of two young children. Winner of fourteen major golf championships and seventy-nine PGA Tour events, Woods was the first billion-dollar athlete, earning more than $100 million a year in endorsements from the likes of Nike, Gillette, AT&T and Gatorade.
But it was all a carefully crafted illusion. As it turned out, Woods had been living a double life for years - one that exploded in the aftermath of a late-night crash that exposed his serial infidelity and sent his personal and professional life off a cliff. In Tiger Woods, Jeff Benedict and Armen Keteyian dig deep behind the headlines to produce a richly reported answer to the question that has mystified millions of sports fans for nearly a decade: who is Tiger Woods?
Drawing on more than four hundred interviews with people from every corner of Woods's life - friends, family members, teachers, romantic partners, swing coaches, business associates, Tour pros and members of Woods's inner circle - Benedict and Keteyian construct a captivating psychological profile of an African-American child programmed by an attention-grabbing father and the original Tiger Mom to be the 'chosen one', to change not just the game of golf, but the world as well. But at what cost?
Benedict and Keteyian provide the startling answers in a biography, updated for this edition, destined to make headlines and linger in the minds of readers for years to come.

Journey to the Edge of Reason - The Life of Kurt Godel
Nearly a hundred years after its publication, Kurt Goedel's famous proof that every mathematical system must contain propositions that are true-yet never provable-continues to unsettle mathematics, philosophy, and computer science. Yet unlike Einstein, with whom he formed a warm and abiding friendship, Goedel has long escaped all but the most casual scrutiny of his life.Stephen Budiansky's Journey to the Edge of Reason is the first biography to fully draw upon Goedel's voluminous letters and writings-including a never-before-transcribed shorthand diary of his most intimate thoughts-to explore Goedel's profound intellectual friendships, his moving relationship with his mother, his troubled yet devoted marriage, and the debilitating bouts of paranoia that ultimately took his life.
It also offers an intimate portrait of the scientific and intellectual circles in prewar Vienna, a haunting account of Goedel's and Jewish intellectuals' flight from Austria and Germany at the start of the Second World War, and a vivid re-creation of the early days of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, NJ, where Goedel and Einstein both worked.Eloquent and insightful, Journey to the Edge of Reason is a fully realized portrait of the odd, brilliant, and tormented man who has been called the greatest logician since Aristotle, and illuminates the far-reaching implications of Goedel's revolutionary ideas for philosophy, mathematics, artificial intelligence, and man's place in the cosmos.
Lennon John - Imagine (Deluxe) 2CD
Imagine je druhým sólovým albem Johna Lennona, které je zároveň jeho nejpopulárnějším projektem. Album bylo nahrané a vydané v roce 1971. Skladby z alba jsou jemněji laděné a méně avantgardní než skladby jeho předešlého alba, které vydal pod názvem John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band. Podle Lennonových vyjádření mu při tvorbě alba šlo o to, aby své myšlenky polil čokoládovou polevou, která je zajímavější pro širší spektrum publika.
Základ alba byl nahrávaný v Lennonově domácím studiu (Ascot Sound Studios v Tittenhurst Park), některé dodatečné party byly dohrané ve studiu Record Plant v New Yorku. Spoluproducenty alba byli Phil Spector, John Lennon a Yoko Ono. Pracovní materiály, které během nahrávání vznikly a na kterých je zdokumentovaný vývoj hudebních nápadů během realizace některých skladeb, vyšel na videu s názvem Gimme Some Truth: The Making of John Lennon's Imagine.
Titulní skladba Imagine se stala tzv. signature songem Johna Lennona a jedním z nejznámějších hudebních apelů pro prezentaci myšlenky světového míru.
Populárními jsou i skladby Jealous Guy (skladba, která vznikla v Indii už v roce 1968 při nahrávaní alba The Beatles pod názvem Child of Nature), Oh My Love (kompozice, která vznikla ve spolupráci s Yoko Ono), či meditativní skladba How?.
Album Imagine obsahuje i rock'n'rollově laděné skladby Crippled Inside a It's So Hard, jako i provokativní píseň Gimme Some Truth, která vznikala se skupinou The Beatles ještě během nahrávání Let It Be. Původně první stranu alba Imagine uzavírá kakofonickou směsí tónů politický song I Don't Wanna Be a Soldier Mama.

The Four Winds
She will discover the best of herself in the worst of times . . .
Texas, 1934. Elsa Martinelli had finally found the life she'd yearned for. A family, a home and a livelihood on a farm on the Great Plains. But when drought threatens all she and her community hold dear, Elsa's world is shattered to the winds.
Fearful of the future, when Elsa wakes to find her husband has fled, she is forced to make the most agonizing decision of her life. Fight for the land she loves or take her beloved children, Loreda and Ant, west to California in search of a better life. Will it be the land of milk and honey? Or will their experience challenge every ounce of strength they possess?
From the overriding love of a mother for her child, the value of female friendship and the ability to love again - against all odds - Elsa's incredible journey is a story of survival, hope and what we do for the ones we love.
The Four Winds is a deeply moving, powerful story about the strength and resilience of women and the bond between mother and daughter, by the multi-million-copy number one bestselling author of The Nightingale, Kristin Hannah.
