Black Panther: Tales of Wakanda
A ground-breaking anthology celebrating Marvel's beloved Black Panther and his home of Wakanda, penned by an all-star cast of authors such as Sheree Renee Thomas and Nikki Giovanni.
T'Challa faces the gods of his parents. Vampires stalk Shuri and a Dora Milaje in voodoo-laced New Orleans. Erik Killmonger grapples with racism, Russian spies, and his own origins. Eighteen brand-new tales of Wakanda, its people, and its legacy.
The first mainstream superhero of African descent, the Black Panther has attracted readers of all races and colors who see in the King of Wakanda reflections of themselves. Storytellers from across the African Diaspora-some already literary legends, others who are rising stars-have created for this collection original works inspired by the world of the Panther and its inhabitants. With guest stars including Storm, Monica Rambeau, Namor, and Jericho Drumm, these are stories of yesterday and today, of science and magic, of faith and love.
These are the tales of a king and his country. These are the legends whispered in the jungle, myths of the unconquered men and women and the land they love.
These are the Tales of Wakanda.
Featuring stories by Linda D. Addison, Maurice Broaddus, Christopher Chambers, Milton J. Davis, Tananarive Due, Nikki Giovanni, Harlan James, Danian Jerry, Kyoko M., L.L. McKinney, Temi Oh, Suyi Davies Okungbowa, Glenn Parris, Alex Simmons, Sheree Renee Thomas, Cadwell Turnbull and Troy L. Wiggins.
Discourse on the Method
The Discourse on the Method is a philosophical and mathematical treatise published by René Descartes in 1637. Its full name is Discourse on the Method of Rightly Conducting the Reason, and Searching for Truth in the Sciences (French title: Discours de la méthode pour bien conduire sa raison, et chercher la verité dans les sciences). The Discourse on Method is best known as the source of the famous quotation "Je pense, donc je suis" ("I think, therefore I am"), which occurs in Part IV of the work. (The similar statement in Latin, Cogito ergo sum, is found in §7 of Principles of Philosophy.) In addition, in one of its appendices, La Géométrie, is contained Descartes' first introduction of the Cartesian coordinate system.The Discourse on the Method is one of the most influential works in the history of modern science. It is a method which gives a solid platform from which all modern natural sciences could evolve. In this work, Descartes tackles the problem of skepticism which had been revived from the ancients such as Sextus Empiricus by authors such as Al-Ghazali and Michel de Montaigne. Descartes modified it to account for a truth that he found to be incontrovertible. Descartes started his line of reasoning by doubting everything, so as to assess the world from a fresh perspective, clear of any preconceived notions.The book was originally published in Leiden in French, together with his works "Dioptrique, Météores et Géométrie". Later, it was translated into Latin and published in 1656 in Amsterdam.Together with Meditations on First Philosophy (Meditationes de Prima Philosophia), Principles of Philosophy (Principia philosophiae) and Rules for the Direction of the Mind (Regulae ad directionem ingenii), it forms the base of the Epistemology known as Cartesianism.

Nylon Union z neznámych dôvodov naďalej mlčí
Posledný deň roku 2018 vydáva Nylon Union druhý album s názvom Undisclosed Grounds. Na rozdiel od debutu, ktorý sa pohrával s témou straty a chýbania, nový album potlačením základných elementov popu ako melódia, prináša nové možnosti interpretácie zdanlivo neviditeľných, či zámerne umlčaných fenoménov, ktoré sú súčasťou našej vlastnej identity, štruktúr násilia, moci, túžby či lásky. Všetkých deväť piesní vo svojej pôvodnej forme mohlo tak pokojne dať základ ďalšiemu príjemnému dream-popovému albumu, avšak Undisclosed Grounds radikálne redukuje pôvodne popové skladby do jedinej harmonickej oscilácie tvorenej základným akordom a jeho vlastnej transpozície o tri poltóny.
Zvukovo Nylon Union využíva svoje charakteristické komplexné gitarové textúry s množstvom vyšších harmonických frekvencií. Tie sú na Undisclosed Grounds pripravované bez použitia akýchkoľvek digitálnych či analógových efektov výhradne vnorením gitarového zosilňovača do medzi-priestoru ohraničeného vlnením analógových oscilátorov.
Nylon Union debutovali v roku 2000 atypickým mini CD Oxeyed EP. Po relatívne krátkej aktívnej činnosti ako post-rockového tria v zložení Richard Imrich (gitara, spev), Martin Turzík (basová gitara) a Matúš Homola (bicie, trúbka) vydávajú o dekádu neskôr v roku 2012 svoj prvý album Sine Sine na značke Deadred Records. V posledných rokoch sa členovia pôvodnej zostavy intenzívne venujú spolupráci na projekte Autumnist slovenského hudobníka Vlada Ďurajku.
Album Undisclosed Grounds vychádza 31.12.2018 na značke Vlna Records vo forme CD ako exkluzívna príloha časopisu Vlna a v digitálnej forme vo formátoch MP3, FLAC dostupných na Bandcamp profile Nylon Union. O grafický dizajn sa postarala Barbora Šajgalíková a cover art tvorí fotografia zo série "Metamorphosis of Beauty" slovenskej fotografky Ester Šabíkovej.

I'm Glad My Mom Died
A heartbreaking and hilarious memoir by iCarly and Sam & Cat star Jennette McCurdy about her struggles as a former child actor—including eating disorders, addiction, and a complicated relationship with her overbearing mother—and how she retook control of her life.
Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income.
In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail—just as she chronicles what happens when the dream finally comes true. Cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly, she is thrust into fame. Though Mom is ecstatic, emailing fan club moderators and getting on a first-name basis with the paparazzi (“Hi Gale!”), Jennette is riddled with anxiety, shame, and self-loathing, which manifest into eating disorders, addiction, and a series of unhealthy relationships. These issues only get worse when, soon after taking the lead in the iCarly spinoff Sam & Cat alongside Ariana Grande, her mother dies of cancer. Finally, after discovering therapy and quitting acting, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants.
Told with refreshing candor and dark humor, I’m Glad My Mom Died is an inspiring story of resilience, independence, and the joy of shampooing your own hair.

Lacná kniha Danish Girl (-50%)
Nowa major motion picture nominated for four Academy Awards starring Academy Award-winner Eddie Redmayne and directed byAcademy Award-winner Tom Hooper National Bestseller * A "New York Times" Notable Book * Winner of the Lambda Literary Award for Transgender Fiction * Winner of the Rosenthal Foundation Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters * Finalist for the New York Public Library Young Lions Award * Finalist for the American Library Association Stonewall Book Award Loosely inspired by a true story, this tender portrait of marriage asks: What do you do when the person you love has tochange?

Uniting fact and fiction into an original romantic vision, "The" "Danish Girl" eloquently portrays the unique intimacy that defines every marriage and the remarkable story of Lili Elbe, a pioneer in transgender history, and the woman torn between loyalty to her marriage and her own ambitions and desires. "The Danish Girl" s lush prose and generous emotional insight make it, after the last page is turned, a deeply moving first novel about one of the most passionate and unusual love stories of the 20th century."

Vicious Circle
Fires are spreading around the globe; the world is at its most precarious moment since 1939. NATO and the European Union are on the brink of war; tensions are rising near the shores of Taiwan. Europe and the United States are in disarray, while Russia and China are each waiting for the other to make the first direct move against the Western alliance system.The sequel to Bonfire, The Fury of the Tsar: Vicious Circle, shows why the American grand strategy of the last three decades is a failure, and why both neoconservative and liberal foreign policy are complete dead ends. It gives an unparalleled look into the mind of the Tsar, Vladimir Putin, as well as his fears, plans, and thirst for vengeance for what he sees as the humiliation of Russia. This is a story of Russian false flag operations across Europe and a story of nationalist conflicts. In the pages of Vicious Circle, history is alive.Author’s personal note: The Fury of the Tsar: Vicious Circle was published in softcover in 2021, based on the Hungarian original of 2018. It describes the covert actions Russia could take to divide the European Union and NATO, but does not describe the war against Ukraine. A coming Russian invasion of Ukraine, however, is mentioned several times in its pages; these were not edited out of the book. While Vicious Circle goes deep into Vladimir Putin’s mind and explains some of his actions as rational, it in no way condones the blatant and open Russian aggression against Ukraine. Whatever grievances President Putin may have had, whether real or imagined, nevertheless under his leadership Russia launched an inexcusable war of conquest against a neighbor. This book is a warning that without understanding geopolitics and history, and without healing the ethnic fault lines of Central and Eastern Europe as well as the Balkans, Europe will remain an easy target for aggression.“Terrorism spreads across Romania and Hungary: Two NATO allies! Who steps in? Vladimir Putin, master of geostrategic opportunity.” Victor Gaetan (American Spectator)“David Autere brings us again on a trip through Eastern European ethnonationalism, ringing a disquieting alarm bell on the future of Europe. But Book Two also gives the reader a peek into Russo-Chinese power plays.”Dario Quintavalle (Limes)

Octavius and the Perfect Governess
A governess in jeopardy . . . and the marquis’s son who goes undercover as a housemaid to protect her.Lord Octavius Pryor leads a carefree and untroubled life, until the night he visits Vauxhall Gardens in the guise of a woman.At Vauxhall, Octavius discovers that being a female is very different from being a man. Annoyingly different, unpleasantly different, and—when he encounters the lecherous Baron Rumpole—dangerously different.Determined to teach the baron a lesson, Octavius infiltrates Rumpole’s household, where he meets the woman of his dreams: Miss Toogood, governess to the baron’s daughters.Suddenly Octavius has three pressing tasks. 1) To teach the baron to keep his yardstick in his breeches. 2) To keep Miss Toogood safe. 3) To convince her to marry him.A word of caution: This novel is a bodice ripper, and I mean that quite literally. Bodices are ripped in this book—and not in a playful or sexy way. However, I promise you that all rippers of bodices receive their just desserts.Length: Full-length novel of 88,000 wordsSensuality level: A Regency romance with mild love scenes? ? ? ? ?"The book has many layers and is thought-provoking, but it's also rollicking fun. I laughed, chortled and (once or twice) snorted my way through the many funny parts, I cried and was relieved during the tense parts, and in between I was happy, touched, enchanted, and completely involved from the first word until the last. "~ Amazon reviewerQ & A with the authorHow would you describe this series?It's Regency England with passion, danger, adventure, humor, romance—and a dash of magic. The stories are emotional, but not sweet. There’s sex, and my heroes do swear at times!Hang on. Did you say magic?I did. But don't worry—the books are first and foremost historical romances. Only a few characters have magic, and it’s a deep, dark secret, and no one else knows.But … do magic and Regency England go together?Definitely! Many years ago I read Sorcery and Cecelia (or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot) by Patricia Wrede and Caroline Stevermer, and totally loved it and ever since then I’ve thought that Regency England and magic go very well together.How would you describe your writing?Several reviewers have likened my writing to Georgette Heyer, which is the hugest compliment ever. I adore Georgette Heyer! She’s why I write historical romance, and I reread her books over and over. (If you’ve not read
