The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
"Everything you would expect from Collins is
here: fraught teenage love; plenty of violence... the themes of
friendship, betrayal, authority and oppression will please and thrill"
The Guardian
"It works beautifully... please don't
make us wait another decade" The Times
Ambition will fuel him.
Competition
will drive him.
But power has its price.
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth
annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus
Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games.
The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its
fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able
to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuvre his fellow students to mentor
the winning tribute.
The odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment
of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest
of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined - ; every
choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favour or failure, triumph
or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside
the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute...
and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire
to survive no matter what it takes.

Pride and Prejudice and the City
From the New York Times bestselling coauthor of Five Feet Apart and She Gets the Girl comes a fresh and inventive sapphic romantic comedy that's What If It's Us meets Bridgerton. What if you found a once-in-a-lifetime love...just not in your lifetime? Seventeen-year-old Audrey Cameron has lost her spark. After an embarrassing run-in with her ex-boyfriend, she's told that she needs to get back out there and take risks.
What she doesn't expect is to be transported to Regency England! Lucy Sinclair has her own problems - stifled by her father and trying to avoid an unwanted marriage proposal - when Audrey lands into her life, claiming to be from two hundred years in the future, it's a welcome distraction. While the girls try to understand what's happening and how to send Audrey home, their sparks make a comeback in a most unexpected way - instead of falling for their suitors and the happily-ever-afters everyone expects of them, they fall for each other. Can their love story survive impossible circumstances? A swoony time-travelling YA romance set in the regency era about finding your spark - a lesbian Jane Austen story.

The Rise of Central Banks
A bold history of the rise of central banks, showing how institutions designed to steady the ship of global finance have instead become as destabilizing as they are dominant.
While central banks have gained remarkable influence over the past fifty years, promising more stability, global finance has gone from crisis to crisis. How do we explain this development? Drawing on original sources ignored in previous research, The Rise of Central Banks offers a groundbreaking account of the origins and consequences of central banks’ increasing clout over economic policy.
Many commentators argue that ideas drove change, indicating a shift in the 1970s from Keynesianism to monetarism, concerned with controlling inflation. Others point to the stagflation crises, which put capitalists and workers at loggerheads. Capitalists won, the story goes, then pushed deregulation and disinflation by redistributing power from elected governments to markets and central banks. Both approaches are helpful, but they share a weakness. Abstracting from the evolving practices of central banking, they provide inaccurate accounts of recent policy changes and fail to explain how we arrived at the current era of easy money and excessive finance.
By comparing developments in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Switzerland, Leon Wansleben finds that central bankers’ own policy innovations were an important ingredient of change. These innovations allowed central bankers to use privileged relationships with expanding financial markets to govern the economy. But by relying on markets, central banks fostered excessive credit growth and cultivated an unsustainable version of capitalism. Through extensive archival work and numerous interviews, Wansleben sheds new light on the agency of bureaucrats and calls upon society and elected leaders to direct these actors’ efforts to more progressive goals.

Small Towns in Europe in the 20th and 21st Centuries.
Malá města v Evropě ve dvacátém a na počátku jedenadvacátého století jsou v historickém výzkumu opomíjená. Problematika kulturního dědictví ve vazbě na rozvojové strategie, je téma diskutované ekonomy více než historiky. Kolektivní monografie věnovaná fenoménu malého města, jenž má v Evropě specifickou, byť regionálně velmi diverzifikovanou podobu, se zaměřila na problémy, které řeší ve druhé polovině dvacátého a v první dekádě jednadvacátého století. Města nevýznamná, uprostřed zemědělského venkova či na periferii metropolí, se snaží najít motivaci k překonání ekonomických a sociálních problémů. V pěti kapitolách knihy autorky a autoři sledují malá města v několika málo evropských zemích a analyzují, jak lidé, kteří o městech rozhodují, architekti a urbanisté, přemýšleli o městě a organizovali prostor malých měst. Jedna z cest, kterou města využívají, vede přes zhodnocení kulturního dědictví a jeho využití jako nástroje k motivaci svého rozvoje. Tito lidé chtějí upozornit na své město a učinit z něj centrum regionálního rozvoje. Způsob využívání kulturního dědictví je velmi rozmanitý, jak dokazují výsledky výzkumu badatelů různých oborů. V mezinárodním autorském týmu najdou čtenáři historiky a historičky, sociology, architektky i historika umění, kteří spolupracují v Evropské asociaci pro urbánní historii.

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief
"Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief" is the first bestselling book in Rick Riordan's phenomenally successful Percy Jackson series - now with a new cover look. Half boy. Half God. ALL Hero. Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood. I never asked to be the son of a Greek God. I was just a normal kid, going to school, playing basketball, skateboarding. The usual. Until I accidentally vaporized my maths teacher. Now I spend my time battling monsters and generally trying to stay alive. This is the one where Zeus, God of the Sky, thinks I've stolen his lightning bolt - and making Zeus angry is a very bad idea. Rick Riordan is the Mythmaster. The Greek Gods are alive and kicking - go to the website and see for yourself. "It's Buffy meets Artemis Fowl. Thumbs up'". ("Sunday Times").
