Shadowsiege
Not all monsters hide in shadows.
Ryann should feel safe, but everything has changed. Haven is under siege from the shades. They hide in the shadows of the forest, waiting for night, always hungry.
But they don’t always kill. Sometimes, their bite infects.
Cathal lies in quarantine, the infection changing his body, turning him into something else. He sleeps, as do the other infected — but sooner or later, they will wake.
Then there are the men from the company. They say they have come down to Haven in order to help, but as far as Ryann can tell, they are only helping themselves. And in a company this big, individuals are of no consequence.
Whichever way she turns, Ryann is besieged by monsters.
The sequel to Shadowfall, Shadowsiege increases the dark tension and the capacity for evil, in monsters both alien and human.

Trauma and Recovery
The groundbreaking work on trauma that remains a “classic for our generation” (Bessel van der Kolk, MD, author of The Body Keeps the Score)
Trauma and Recovery is the foundational text on understanding trauma survivors. By placing individual experience in a political frame, psychiatrist Judith L. Herman argues that psychological trauma is inseparable from its social and political context. Drawing on her own research on incest, as well as a vast literature on combat veterans and victims of political terror, she shows surprising parallels between private horrors like child abuse and public horrors like war.
This edition includes a new epilogue by the author assessing what has—and hasn’t—changed in understanding and treating trauma over the last three decades.
Hailed by the New York Times as “one of the most important psychiatry works to be published since Freud,” Trauma and Recovery is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how we heal.
Matrix

You Don't Own Me - Nem vagyok a tulajdonod 1-2.
Most keményen küzdök, hogy megőrizzem az irányítást.
Zane
Minden anya azért imádkozik, hogy a lánya soha ne akadjon össze egy magamfajta férfival. Kőszívű vagyok, könyörtelen maffiafőnök és kegyetlen gyilkos. Még nem találkoztam olyan nővel, aki a kielégülésemen túl lekötötte volna a figyelmemet. Dahlia Furyig. Ő más. Úgy sétált be az életembe, ahogy egy védtelen bárány kerül a farkas útjába. Amint összepillantottunk, beindultam rá. Muszáj volt őt megszereznem. De soha nem gondoltam, hogy olyan lesz, mint valami drog. Úgy serceg közöttünk a levegő, mint amilyet én még nem tapasztaltam, és bármikor látom, minden porcikáját fel akarom falni. Én kötöttem ki a megállapodásunk feltételeit (egy hónap), de minden alkalom után, amikor magamévá teszem, mint egy átkozott függőnek, újabb adagra van szükségem... Dahlia
"Menni fog. Ez csak egy egyszerű svédmasszázs", könyörgött a barátnőm.A megérzésemre kellett volna hallgatnom. Nem lett volna szabad elmennem. De nem hallgattam, így egyedül találtam magam egy szobában a megtestesült alfahímmel, egy szexi, befolyásos maffiafőnökkel, akinek a rideg tekintetétől meghűl a vér az ereimben. A legmegdöbbentőbb módon vette irányítása alá a testemet. Elveszítettem miatta az önuralmamat.
Lélekszakadva menekültem el tőle, de sosem felejtettem el. Majd valami elképzelhetetlen történik, és csak a jégszívű ragadozó tud segíteni. Belemegy, de... semmi sincs ingyen. Most a londoni villájában élek arra várva, hogy magához rendeljen, megérintsen, felizgasson és kielégítsen.
Úgy, ahogy csak az én orosz fenevadam tud...
Éld át az átélhetetlent! (És tanuld meg távol tartani az életedtől!)

Venice
Enchanting, captivating, precious—Venice is one of the most cherished cities in the world. For centuries it was the heart of a global maritime power and a crossroads for diverse cultures. Today the city attracts millions of visitors each year, enticed by its irresistible beauty. Art lovers are drawn here by the paintings, prints, drawings, and films made by generations of artists who have captured its magical allure. It is through images—both of the city and the art created there—that Venice’s identity has been forged and spread so powerfully.Venice was a major center of art in the Renaissance: the city where the medium of oil on canvas became the norm.
The achievements of the Bellini brothers, Vittore Carpaccio, Giorgione, Titian, Tintoretto, and Paolo Veronese are a key part of this story. Nowhere else has been depicted by so many great painters in so many diverse styles and moods. Venetian views were a specialty of native artists such as Canaletto and Francesco Guardi, but the city has also been represented by outsiders: William Turner, Claude Monet, John Singer Sargent, Howard Hodgkin, and many more.
Then there are those who came to look at and write about art. The reactions of Henry James, George Eliot, Richard Wagner, and others enrich this tale. Nor is the story over. Since the advent of the Venice Biennale in the 1890s, the city has become a shop window for the contemporary art of the whole world.In this elegant volume, Martin Gayford takes us on a visual journey through the past five centuries of the city known as “La Serenissima,” the “Most Serene.”
Mud Sweeter than Honey
After breaking ties with Yugoslavia, the USSR and then China, Enver Hoxha believed that Albania could become a self-sufficient bastion of communism. Every day, many of its citizens were thrown into prisons and forced labour camps for daring to think independently, for rebelling against the regime or trying to escape - the consequences of their actions were often tragic and irreversible.
Mud Sweeter than Honey gives voice to those who lived in Albania at that time - from poets and teachers to shoe-makers and peasant farmers, and many others whose aspirations were brutally crushed in acts of unimaginable repression - creating a vivid, dynamic and often painful picture of this totalitarian state during the forty years of Hoxha's ruthless dictatorship.
Very little emerged from Albania during communist times. With these personal accounts, Rejmer opens a window onto a terrifying period in the country's history. Mud Sweeter than Honey is not only a gripping work of reportage, but also a necessary and unique portrait of a nation.
Tsarina's Daughter
When they took everything from her, they didn't count on her fighting to get it back...

Insulated by luxury and as a woman free from the burden of statecraft, Elizabeth is seemingly born to pursue her passions.
However, a dark prophecy predicts her fate as inexorably twined with Russia. When her mother dies, Russia is torn, masks fall, and friends become foes. Elizabeth's idyllic world is upended. By her twenties she is penniless and powerless, living under constant threat. As times change like quicksand, an all-consuming passion emboldens Elizabeth: she must decide whether to take up her role as Russia's ruler, and what she's willing to do for her country - and for love.
