The Accidental Further Adventures of the Hundred-Year-Old Man
The sequel to Jonas Jonasson's international bestseller The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared
It all begins with a hot air balloon trip and three bottles of champagne. Allan and Julius are ready for some spectacular views, but they're not expecting to land in the sea and be rescued by a North Korean ship, and they could never have imagined that the captain of the ship would be harbouring a suitcase full of contraband uranium, on a nuclear weapons mission for Kim Jong-un ...
Soon Allan and Julius are at the centre of a complex diplomatic crisis involving world figures from the Swedish foreign minister to Angela Merkel and President Trump. Things are about to get very complicated ...
Praise for The Hundred-Year-Old Man:
`A mordantly funny and loopily freewheeling debut novel about ageing disgracefully' Sunday Times
`Imaginative, laugh-out-loud . . . a brilliant satire on the foibles of mankind' Daily Telegraph
`Fast-moving and relentlessly sunny' Guardian

The Library of Lost Things
From the moment she first learned to read, literary genius Darcy Wells has spent most of her time living in the worlds of her books. There, she can avoid the crushing reality of her mother's hoarding and pretend her life is simply ordinary.
But then Asher Fleet, a former teen pilot with an unexpectedly shattered future, walks into the bookstore where she works...and straight into her heart. For the first time in her life, Darcy can't seem to find the right words. Fairy tales are one thing, but real love makes her want to hide behind her carefully constructed ink-and-paper wall.
Still, after spending her whole life keeping people out, something about Asher makes Darcy want to open up. But securing her own happily-ever-after will mean she'll need to stop hiding and start living her own truth--even if it's messy.
Essentialism : The Disciplined Pursuit of Less
The life-changing international bestseller that started a global movement - now updated with the new 21-Day Essentialism Challenge and an exclusive excerpt from EFFORTLESS
Have you ever found yourself struggling with information overload?
Have you ever felt both overworked and underutilised?
Do you ever feel busy but not productive?
If you answered yes to any of these, the way out is to become an Essentialist.
In Essentialism, Greg McKeown, CEO of a Leadership and Strategy agency in Silicon Valley who has run courses at Apple, Google and Facebook, shows you how to achieve what he calls the disciplined pursuit of less. Being an Essentialist is about a disciplined way of thinking. It means challenging the core assumption of 'We can have it all' and 'I have to do everything' and replacing it with the pursuit of 'the right thing, in the right way, at the right time'.
By applying a more selective criteria for what is essential, the pursuit of less allows us to regain control of our own choices so we can channel our time, energy and effort into making the highest possible contribution toward the goals and activities that matter.
Using the experience and insight of working with the leaders of the most innovative companies and organisations in the world, McKeown shows you how to put Essentialism into practice in your own life, so you too can achieve something great.

The Queen of Nothing – A semmi királynője (A levegő népe 3.)
A hatalmat sokkal könnyebb megragadni, mint megtartani.
Jude alaposan megtanulta ezt a leckét, amikor mérhetetlen hatalomért cserébe lemondott a gonosz király, Cardan feletti uralmáról.
Tündérfölde száműzött halandó királynéjaként elveszettnek érzi magát, a semmi királynőjének. Ám megfogadja, hogy mindent visszaszerez, amit elvettek tőle. Az esély kétszínű ikertestvére, a szintén halandó Taryn képében érkezik meg, akinek az élete veszélybe kerül.
Jude kénytelen vállalni a kockázatot, és visszatérni a veszedelmes tündérudvarba, valamint szembenézni a Cardan iránti érzéseivel, hogy megmentse a nővére életét. Csakhogy sok minden megváltozott Elfhonban a távozása óta. Háború közeleg. Jude beférkőzik az ellenséges tábor mélyére, és ő maga is belekeveredik a véres politikai csatározásba.
Amikor egy eddig szunnyadó, ám igen erős átok elszabadul, pánik söpör végig a vidéken, és Jude választani kényszerül a becsvágya és az embersége között…
A levegő népe trilógiájának várva várt, döbbenetes fináléja.
The History of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Pictures
Based on period documents and photography, the book maps in detail the development of Czech non-university sciences from the 18th century when the Society of Unknown Scholars in the Austrian Lands was founded in Olomouc. The main attention is focused on the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and its most important precursors, whether the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, active in 1953–1992, or earlier institutions, such as the Czech Academy of Sciences and Arts (originally the Emperor Franz Joseph Czech Academy for Sciences, Literature and Arts), founded in 1890, or the Royal Bohemian Society of Learning, which existed already from the 18th century. Individual chapters are devoted also to Masaryk Academy of Labour and the main scientific institutions of the Germans living in the Czech lands – Gesellschaft zur Förderung Deutscher Wissenschaft, Kunst und Literatur in Böhmen (Society for the Support of German Sciences, Arts and Literature in Bohemia). Attention is, however, also devoted to our most important scientists with whose research results as well as the milieu in which they worked and work the reader is acquainted with through archival and contemporary sources. The patrons and sponsors who made it possible for Czech science to reach a global level are also not forgotten. The entire process of the development of Czech non-university science is places in the wider social context, which influenced the development of the scientific institutions and the position of scientists in them.

Binding 13 - The Boys of Tommen
They are from opposites sides of the track - but when their two worlds collide, nothing will ever be the same again.
Johnny Kavanagh has everything going for him. On the rugby pitch, he's a force to be reckoned with. Primed for stardom, he's heading straight for the top. Nothing can possibly get in his way, right? Not even the shy new girl at Tommen College. The one with the sad eyes and hidden bruises. The one that distracts him like no one ever has.
Life has never been easy for Shannon Lynch. Bullied and tortured, she arrives at Tommen College mid-way through the school year praying for a fresh start and desperate to shake off the demons that plague her. On her very first day at the prestigious private school, she comes into contact with the notorious Johnny Kavanagh. Thrown through a hoop over her feelings for him, and desperate to keep a low-profile, Shannon finds herself once again the target of bullies as she forms a fragile alliance with rugby's rising star.
Falling into a complicated friendship and grappling with their undeniable chemistry, Johnny and Shannon could never have foreseen the obstacles that will threaten their blossoming relationship . . .

Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast + Beast Over Hammersmith 3LP
Warner Music s potešením oznamuje vydanie pamätného trojitého čierneho vinylového albumu na počesť 40. výročia kľúčového tretieho albumu IRON MAIDEN, The Number Of The Beast, ktorý bol tiež prvým s Bruceom Dickinsonom vokálom a mal sa stať nahrávka, ktorá kapelu katapultovala medzi medzinárodné hviezdy. Súčasťou nového vinylového balenia je Beast Over Hammersmith – teraz oficiálne k dispozícii úplne prvýkrát na vinyle – so živým koncertom z dnes už legendárnej londýnskej show Hammersmith Odeon z marca 1982 zo svetového turné Beast On The Road. Nahraté len niekoľko dní pred vydaním albumu The Number Of The Beast, je pozoruhodné, že tieto dnes už klasické piesne v tom čase boli stále úplne nové, nepoznané a fanúšikovia ich naživo počuli po prvý raz. Pripravuje sa skutočný kus histórie.
Vydanie obsahuje exkluzívne noty napísané zakladateľom a basgitaristom Maiden Stevom Harrisom, ako aj zreštaurované a rozšírené umelecké diela prevzaté z CD formátu Beast Over Hammersmith, ktorý bol predtým dostupný iba v limitovanej edícii Eddie's Archive, pôvodne vydanej v roku 2002.

Sensitive : The Power of a Thoughtful Mind in an Overwhelming World
Have you ever been told you're too sensitive? Welcome to the club.
Nearly 1 in 3 people have the genes to be more sensitive than others. But what if we said it doesn't have to be the insult it's always been framed as?
Highly sensitive people:
· Have a heightened sense of empathy
· Tune into subtle details and make connections that others miss
· Are often wonderfully creative
Through fascinating research, expert storytelling and practical insight, this book will teach you how to unlock the potential in this undervalued strength and leverage it in your relationships, your work and your life.
Shattering the myth that being sensitive is a weakness, Sensitive will change - once and for all - how the world sees sensitive people, and how they see themselves.
