The Song of Achilles
A beautiful new limited edition paperback of The Song of Achilles, published as part of the Bloomsbury Modern Classics list
The god touches his finger to the arrow's fletching. Then he breathes, a puff of air - as if to send dandelions flying, to push toy boats over water. And the arrow flies, straight and silent, in a curving, downward arc towards Achilles' back.
Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the court of King Peleus and his perfect son Achilles. Despite their differences, the boys develop a tender friendship, a bond which blossoms into something deeper as they grow into young men.
But when Helen of Sparta is kidnapped, Achilles is dispatched to distant Troy to fulfil his destiny. Torn between love and fear for his friend, Patroclus follows, little knowing that the years that follow will test everything they hold dear.
The 48 Laws Of Power
Drawn from 3,000 years of the history of power, this is the definitive guide to help readers achieve for themselves what Queen Elizabeth I, Henry Kissinger, Louis XIV and Machiavelli learnt the hard way. Law 1: Never outshine the master Law 2: Never put too much trust in friends; learn how to use enemies Law 3: Conceal your intentions Law 4: Always say less than necessary. The text is bold and elegant, laid out in black and red throughout and replete with fables and unique word sculptures. The 48 laws are illustrated through the tactics, triumphs and failures of great figures from the past who have wielded - or been victimised by - power.
The Psychology of Money
Doing well with money isn't necessarily about what you know. It's about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people.
Money-investing, personal finance, and business decisions-is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don't make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together.
In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life's most important topics.

Go-go girl nyomoz
Addison Holmes élete romokban hever. Szerelme az oltár előtt úgy dönt, mégsem mondja ki a boldogító igent, a balul sikerült esküvő számlái pedig kifizetetlenül hevernek állandóan beázó lakásában. Mit tesz egy elhivatott tanárnő, ha komoly pénzzavarba kerül? Talán különórákat vállal? Esetleg kölcsönkér a szüleitől? Egy józan gondolkodású lány bizonyára ezt tenné, Addison azonban nagyobb haszonnal kecsegtető, de annál is több kockázattal járó mellékállást vállal, és elszegődik sztriptíztáncosnőnek. A lány, aki mágnesként vonzza a bajt, rövid úton egy gyilkossági ügybe keveredik, így jobb híján felcsap magándetektívnek. Még szerencse, hogy segítséget kap egy hihetetlenül szexi, de elviselhetetlenül szemtelen rendőrnyomozótól, akinek élete titkokat rejt…
Kaland, szerelem, romantika, humor és mindenekfelett egy őrülten szerethető főszereplő teszi felejthetetlenné a Go-go girl sorozatot.

Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt
Spanning a lifetime of love and loss, crossing borders and oceans, Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt, co-authored by her son Harry Whittaker, draws Lucinda Riley's Seven Sisters series to its stunning, unforgettable conclusion.
1928, Paris
A boy is found, moments from death, and taken in by a kindly family. Gentle, precocious, talented, he flourishes in his new home, and the family show him a life he hadn't dreamed possible. But he refuses to speak a word about who he really is.
As he grows into a young man, falling in love and taking classes at the prestigious Conservatoire de Paris, he can almost forget the terrors of his past, or the promise he has vowed to keep. But across Europe an evil is rising, and no-one's safety is certain. In his heart, he knows the time will come where he must flee once more.
2008, the Aegean
The seven sisters are gathered together for the first time, on board the Titan to say a final goodbye to the enigmatic father they loved so dearly.
To the surprise of everyone, it is the missing sister who Pa Salt has chosen to entrust with the clue to their pasts. But for every truth revealed, another question emerges. The sisters must confront the idea that their adored father was someone they barely knew. And even more shockingly: that these long-buried secrets may still have consequences for them today.

10 Hours to Go
Welcome to the highway of your nightmares in this fiery claustrophobic thriller for fans of Natalie D. Richards and Natasha Preston
Lily wants to get home. Her friends want to get even.
Lily needs a ride-a fire warning in Oregon has cancelled her train home to California. Her ex-best friend, Natasha, has offered to pick Lily up on her way back from Portland, though they're barely on speaking terms. As it turns out, Natasha's also giving a ride to Elke Azizi, the girl Lily got expelled from their school four years ago. Elke hasn't forgotten, and neither has Natasha.
It's getting tense in the car, and it's not just about the past. There's smoke in the air, and with the wildfires nearby, staying on the road is becoming riskier by the hour. When Natasha and Elke decide to take a detour, Lily hopes it'll get them out of danger. She has no idea, though, what her former friends have planned for her.
But as night comes, the plans change again when it becomes all too clear that leaving the main road was a mistake. Now the three of them are trapped in the woods under a burning sky, with no easy way out. To survive, Lily must depend on Elke and Natasha-but after all that's happened, can she trust them with her life?
Poetické Slovensko / Poetry of Slovakia
Súčasné Slovensko formovali v dávnej minulosti mnohé ríše a národy. Od Keltov, Dákov, Samovu ríšu, slovanskú
Veľkomoravskú ríšu, Uhorsko, habsburgské Rakúsko, Rakúsko - Uhorsko, na troskách ktorého získali Slováci
po tisíc rokoch znovu samostatnosť v rámci prvej Československej republiky. Cez krátku avantúru s nacistickým
Nemeckom, obnovením československej štátnosti pod dozorom komunistického Sovietskeho zväzu až k zmene
spoločenského poriadku v roku 1989 a následnému vyhláseniu samostatnosti 1.januára1993.
Za tie dlhé storočia boli obyvatelia dnešného Slovenska konfrontovaní s mnohými výzvami. Dôležitými míľnikmi
bolo prijatie kresťanstva, odmietnutie učenia byzantínskych vierozvestcov Cyrila a Metoda a následné pričlenenie
sa k západnej cirkvi. Epidémia čierneho moru zdecimovala počty obyvateľov. Následná nemecká kolonizácia
priniesla modernizáciu a rozkvet spoločnosti. Osmanské výboje priamo ohrozovali značnú časť obyvateľstva.
Slovensku sa nevyhli náboženské konflikty v Európe. Posledné storočie striedali krátke epizódy všestranného
a demokratického rozvoja s najkrvavejšími diktatúrami, ktoré kedy existovali. Po získaní samostatnosti
pred dvadsiatimi piatimi rokmi začala kľukatá cesta k demokracii a obdobiu zrejme najväčšej prosperity,
akú sme na Slovensku kedy zažili.
Súc diplomatom, prežívam dlhé obdobia môjho života v zahraničí. Je veľmi zaujímavé spoznávať nové krajiny,
chápať osobitosti rôznych spoločenských poriadkov, náboženstiev, iných kultúr. Ľuďom sa častokrát stáva,
že nestihnú spoznať vlastnú krajinu. Dlhé roky som sa venoval jej fotografovaniu. Kedysi na veľmi amatérskej báze.
Od fotoaparátu upevnenom v čínskom lampióne šťastia, cez rogalo a vetrone až k športovým lietadlám.
Výsledkom je takmer 120 fotografií, na ktorých sa pokúšam ukázať magickú krásu Slovenska.

Tower of Dawn
A glorious empire. A desperate quest. An ancient secret.
The search for allies extends to a new land in the sixth book of the #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas.
Chaol Westfall and Nesryn Faliq have arrived in the shining city of Antica to forge an alliance with the Khagan of the Southern Continent, whose vast armies are Erilea's last hope. But they have also come to Antica for another purpose: to seek healing at the famed Torre Cesme for the wounds Chaol received in Rifthold.
After enduring unspeakable horrors as a child at the hands of Adarlanian soldiers, Yrene Towers has no desire to help the young lord from Adarlan, let alone heal him. Yet she has sworn an oath to assist those in need, and she will honour it. But Lord Westfall carries his own dark past, and Yrene soon realises that those shadows could engulf them both.
Chaol, Nesryn, and Yrene will have to draw on every scrap of their resilience to overcome the danger that surrounds them. But while they become entangled in the political webs of the khaganate, long-awaited answers slumber deep in the mountains, where warriors soar on legendary ruks. Answers that might offer their world a chance at survival ... or doom them all.
The final battle looms in this sixth book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series.

Lord of the Flies
A plane crashes on a desert island and the only survivors, a group of schoolboys, assemble on the beach and wait to be rescued. By day they inhabit a land of bright fantastic birds and dark blue seas, but at night their dreams are haunted by the imag
e of a terrifying beast. As the boys' delicate sense of order fades, so their childish dreams are transformed into something more primitive, and their behaviour starts to take on a murderous, savage significance. First published in 1954, "Lord of the
Flies" is one of the most celebrated and widely read of modern classics.
