The Spy Who Came in from the Cold
THE THIRD GEORGE SMILEY NOVEL
Alec Leamas is tired. It's the 1960s, he's been out in the cold for years, spying in the shadow of the Berlin Wall for his British masters. Now Control wants to bring him in at last - but only after one final assignment. He must travel deep into the heart of Communist Germany and betray his country, a job that he will do with his usual cynical professionalism. But when George Smiley tries to help a young woman Leamas has befriended, it may prove the worst thing he could ever have done.
Le Carre's breakthrough work of 1963 was an award-winning number one global bestseller and brought him international renown, redefining the spy story as a gritty and terrible tale of men who are caught up in politics beyond their imagining.

Spy x Family 1
Každý máme svou skrytou stránku, kterou nechceme ukázat ostatním. Ani přátelům, ani milencům, ani rodině. Za úsměvy a přetvářkou skrýváme, co si myslíme a kým doopravdy jsme. Jen díky tomu na světě přetrvává křehký mír.
Špion mnoha tváří Soumrak patří mezi špičku ve svém oboru. Za svou kariéru zažil mnoho nebezpečných misí, nyní před ním však stojí ta nejzákeřnější ze všech – musí se oženit a pořídit si dítě, aby zachránil svět! Aby pronikl na elitní akademii a dostal se ke svému cíli, musí si tento samotář najít manželku a dítě, s nimiž by vytvořil naprosto obyčejnou a nenápadnou rodinu. Jenže co se stane, když se ze zdánlivě křehké ženy vyklube vražedkyně a z dcery telepatka? Dobrodružství netradiční rodinky začíná!
Spy x Family 4
Nejtěžší mise v kariéře agenta Soumraka pokračuje. A jeho dnešní cíl? Získat psa! Jenže i tak jednoduchá věc se zvrtne ve chvíli, kdy se do ní zapojí teroristé. Zvládne Soumrak zabránit teroristickému útoku a navíc získat mazlíčka, aniž by u toho přišel o život nebo hůř, o utajení?
Spy x Family 2
První fáze plánu je v ohrožení!
Během pohovoru na akademii Eden Soumrak ztratil nervy a možná tak všechno zkazil. Takhle Anya nejspíš u přijímací zkoušky neuspěje a Soumrak přijde o jedinou šanci přiblížit se ke svému cíli, Donovanu Desmondovi. Povede se mu ještě zvrátit situaci ve svůj prospěch? A pokud ano, dokáže se Anya sblížit s Donovanovým synem Damianem? Dojdou snad legendárnímu Soumrakovi síly již v první bitvě?
Špionské dobrodružství pokračuje!
The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea
Don't chase fate. Let fate chase you.
For generations, deadly storms have ravaged Mina's homeland. Her people believe the Sea God, once their protector, now curse them with death and despair. To appease him, each year a maiden is thrown into the sea, in the hopes that one day the 'true bride' will be chosen and end the suffering.
Many believe Shim Cheong - Mina's brother's beloved - to be the legendary true bride. But on the night Cheong is sacrificed, Mina's brother follows her, even knowing that to interfere is a death sentence. To save her brother, Mina throws herself into the water in Cheong's stead.
Swept away to the Spirit Realm, a magical city of lesser gods and mythical beasts, Mina finds the Sea God, trapped in an enchanted sleep. With the help of a mysterious young man and a motley crew of demons, gods and spirits, Mina sets out to wake him and bring an end to the storms once and for all.
But she doesn't have much time: a human cannot live long in the land of the spirits. And there are those who would do anything to keep the Sea God from waking...

Who, The - Who's Next (50th Anniversary) CD
"The Who" je anglická rocková skupina založená v Londýne v roku 1964. Jej základnú zostavu tvorili hlavný spevák Roger Daltrey, gitarista Pete Townshend, basgitarista John Entwistle a bubeník Keith Moon. Sú považovaní za jednu z najvplyvnejších rockových kapiel 20. storočia a celosvetovo predali viac ako 100 miliónov nahrávok. Medzi ich prínosy k rockovej hudbe patrí vývoj Marshall stack, veľké systémy ozvučenia, použitie syntetizátorov, Entwistle a Moon vplyvné štýly hry, Townshendova spätná väzba a power akord gitarovej techniky a vývoj rockovej opery. Sú citovaní ako vplyv mnohých hard rockových, punkových, power popových a modových kapiel. The Who boli uvedení do Rokenrolovej siene slávy v roku 1990.
"Who's Next" je piaty štúdiový album anglickej rockovej skupiny, pôvodne vydaný v roku 1971. Album bol vyvinutý zo zrušeného projektu Lifehouse', multimediálnej rockovej opery, ktorú napísal gitarista a skladateľ Pete Townshend ako pokračovanie albumu z roku 1969. album „Tommy“. Album obsahuje klasické Who singles ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’, ‘Baba O’Riley’ a ‘Behind Blue Eyes’ a je všeobecne považovaný za najlepšiu nahrávku kapely.

The Cat Who Saved Books
The Cat Who Saved Books is a heartwarming story about finding courage, caring for others – and the tremendous power of books.
Natsuki Books was a tiny second-hand bookshop on the edge of town. Inside, towering shelves reached the ceiling, every one crammed full of wonderful books. Rintaro Natsuki loved this space that his grandfather had created. He spent many happy hours there, reading whatever he liked. It was the perfect refuge for a boy who tended to be something of a recluse.
After the death of his grandfather, Rintaro is devastated and alone. It seems he will have to close the shop. Then, a talking tabby cat called Tiger appears and asks Rintaro for help. The cat needs a book lover to join him on a mission. This odd couple will go on three magical adventures to save books from people who have imprisoned, mistreated and betrayed them. Finally, there is one last rescue that Rintaro must attempt alone . . .
Sosuke Natsukawa’s international bestseller, translated from Japanese by Louise Heal Kawai, is a story for those for whom books are so much more than words on paper.

Elizabeth puts it down to his normal grandstanding, but then the bodies start piling up. So she enlists Joyce, Ibrahim and Ron in the hunt for the killer. If they find the diamonds - well, that's just a bonus...
