The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents
Even wizards produce leftovers.
But a wizard's rubbish is laced with magic, and for the rats that forage this rubbish, the magic has changed them - they can speak and read, and have rather grand ambitions for a comfortable retirement.
Which is perfect for a con-cat like Maurice. He has his own magical talents, and wants to get rich quick. Together with the rats, and young (rather simple) Keith, the 'piper', they work the towns to create their very own plague of rats - then lure them away for cash.
But in the run-down town Bad Blintz, this little con goes wrong, and suddenly these educated rodents aren't playing to the piper's tune . . .
Shadowplay - Behind the Lines and Under Fire
A gripping eyewitness account of a major 20th-century military conflict by the UK's most popular writer on geopolitics; The shattering of Yugoslavia in the 1990s showed that, after nearly 50 years of peace, war could return to Europe. It came to its bloody conclusion in Kosovo in 1999.; Tim Marshall, then diplomatic editor at Sky News, was on the ground covering the Kosovo War. This is his illuminating account of how events unfolded, a thrilling journalistic memoir drawing on personal experience, eyewitness accounts, and interviews with intelligence officials from five countries.; Twenty years on from the war's end, with the rise of Russian power, a weakened NATO and stalled EU expansion, this story is more relevant than ever, as questions remain about the possibility of conflict on European soil. Utterly gripping, this is Tim Marshall at his very best: behind the lines, under fire and full of the insight that has made him one of Britain's foremost writers on geopolitics.

Zrcadlová četba - Crime and Punishment (B1-B2)
This abridged and linguistically adapted version of Crime and Punishment endeavors to introduce the reader to the masterpiece of the Russian author Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky. The writer himself characterized it as a psychological record of one crime. Rodion Romanovitch Raskolnikoff is a poor student who has been forced to give up his university studies. He withdraws from society and plans to murder an old moneylender. He is convinced that murder and robbery of a despicable, mean old woman who oppresses her sister and exploits her clients will sure enough be excused, or even approved of, and make many good deeds possible. But this story is not about the crime... Tato jazykově upravená a zestručněná verze románu Zločin a trest se čtenáři pokouší představit vrcholné dílo ruského autora Fjodora Michajloviče Dostojevského. Spisovatel sám jej charakterizoval jako psychologický záznam jednoho zločinu. Rodion Romanovič Raskolnikov je chudý student, který byl z finančních důvodů nucen zanechat studia na univerzitě. Stáhne se i ze společnosti a naplánuje vraždu staré lichvářky. Je přesvědčen, že vražda a oloupení zavrženíhodné, zlé stařeny, která utiskuje svou sestru a odírá své klienty, bude jistě prominuta, ne-li dokonce schvalována, a umožní mnoho dobrých skutků. Tento příběh však není o zločinu...
The Future of Geography: How Power and Politics in Space Will Change Our World
Space: the biggest geopolitical story of the coming century – new from the multi-million-copy international bestselling author of Prisoners of Geography
Spy satellites orbiting the Moon. Space metals worth billions. Humans on Mars within our lifetimes.
This isn’t science fiction. It’s astropolitics.
We’re entering a new space race – and it could revolutionise life on Earth.
Space: the new frontier, a wild and lawless place. It is already central to communication, economics, military strategy and international relations on Earth. Now, it is the latest arena for human exploration, exploitation – and, possibly, conquest. We’re heading up and out, and we’re taking our power struggles with us. China, the USA and Russia are leading the way.
From physical territory and resources to satellites, weaponry and strategic choke points, geopolitics is as important in the skies above us as it is down below. If you’ve ever wondered if humans are going back to the Moon, who will benefit from exploration or what space wars might look like, the answers are here.
With all the insight and wit that have made Tim Marshall the UK’s most popular writer on geopolitics, this gripping book shows how we got here and where we’re going, covering great-power rivalry; technology; commerce; combat in space; and what it means for all of us down here on Earth. This is essential reading on power, politics and the future of humanity.
The Ballad of Darcy and Russell
Darcy believes in love at first sight.
Even though it’s never happened to her, she’s spent her whole life waiting for that perfect, magical moment. But right now, her life is anything but perfect. In the aftermath of a music festival, she’s stranded at a bus station until morning—the day before she leaves for college. Her phone is dead, she has no cash, and she’s convinced nothing good can come of this night…but then she meets Russell.
Russell. Cute and nice, funny, and kind. She knows this is the moment—and the guy—she’s been waiting for. And they have until sunrise to walk and talk and connect.
Over the course of this one fateful night—filled with football field picnics, night swimming, and escape-artist dogs—Darcy and Russell’s lives will change forever. They’ll discover things they never imagined about each other…and about themselves.
But can you really know someone after only a handful of hours? Is it possible to fall in love in just one day?
And is it worth saying hello…when you know you’re destined for a goodbye?
Rolling Stones, The - Black And Blue (Japanese SHM Limited-Edition Reissue) CD
"The Rolling Stones" je anglická rocková skupina založená v Londýne v roku 1962. Aktívna už viac ako šesť desaťročí, je jednou z najpopulárnejších a najtrvalejších kapiel rockovej éry. Začiatkom 60. rokov boli Rolling Stones priekopníkmi drsného, rytmicky riadeného zvuku, ktorý definoval hard rock. Ich prvú stabilnú zostavu tvorili spevák Mick Jagger, multiinštrumentalista Brian Jones, gitarista Keith Richards, basgitarista Bill Wyman a bubeník Charlie Watts. Počas ich formovania bol Jones hlavným lídrom: zostavil skupinu, pomenoval ju a riadil jej zvuk a imidž. Po tom, čo sa v roku 1963 stal manažérom skupiny Andrew Loog Oldham, povzbudil ich, aby napísali svoje vlastné piesne. Jagger a Richards sa stali primárnou tvorivou silou kapely, čím odcudzili Jonesa, ktorý si vyvinul drogovú závislosť, ktorá zasahovala do jeho schopnosti zmysluplne prispievať. "The Rolling Stones" majú odhadovaný predaj nahrávok na úrovni 200 miliónov, čo z nich robí jedného z najpredávanejších hudobných umelcov všetkých čias. Kapela získala tri ceny Grammy a cenu Grammy za celoživotné dielo. V roku 1989 ich uviedli do Rokenrolovej siene slávy a v roku 2004 do Britskej hudobnej siene slávy. Časopis Billboard a Rolling Stone zaradili skupinu medzi jednu z najväčších všetkých čias.
Prvýkrát sú albumy v japonskej verzii SHM-CD, ktorá využíva mono mix, v limitovanej edícii dostupné mimo Japonska! SHM CD je CD najvyššej kvality, kompatibilné so všetkými CD prehrávačmi. SHM-CD používa polykarbonátový materiál pôvodne vyvinutý pre LCD displeje a zvýšená priehľadnosť SHM-CD sa premieta do väčšej čistoty, hĺbky a definície zvuku, čím sa poslucháč dostáva stále bližšie k hudbe z pôvodnej predlohy.

Bowie David - Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders (50th Anniversary Edition) 2CD+BD
David Robert Jones (8. januára 1947 – 10. januára 2016), profesionálne známy ako David Bowie bol anglický spevák, skladateľ a herec. Popredná osobnosť v hudobnom priemysle je považovaný za jedného z najvplyvnejších hudobníkov 20. storočia. Bowie bol uznávaný kritikmi a hudobníkmi, najmä pre jeho inovatívnu prácu v 70. rokoch. Jeho kariéra bola poznačená reinvenciou a vizuálnou prezentáciou a jeho hudba a scénické umenie mali významný vplyv na populárnu hudbu.
V londýnskom Hammersmith Odeone ohromil David Bowie 5000 fanúšikov tým, že sa rozlúčil so Ziggym Stardustom, jeho najznámejším alter-egom. Teraz, pri spomienke na 50. výročie predstavenia, bude po prvý raz uvedený starostlivo zreštaurovaný film a soundtrack. Filmár D.A. Pennebaker (Monterey Pop, Bob Dylan – Don't Look Back, Depeche Mode – 101) zachytil túto historickú príležitosť a zdokumentoval Bowieho a The Spiders From Mars v zákulisí aj na pódiu. Film teraz prešiel digitálnou obnovou 4K pod dohľadom jeho syna Frazera Pennebakera s remastrovaným zvukom.Napriek tomu, že bol nakrútený pred polstoročím, film zostal viac ako desaťročie prevažne nevidený. Avšak film a jeho soundtrack boli nanovo remastrované s mixom 'The Jean Genie/Love Me Do' a 'Round And Round' s legendárnym Jeffom Beckom – táto skladba sa vôbec prvýkrát objavila. Obe predstavenia novo namiešal dlhoročný Bowieho spolupracovník Tony Visconti.Počas šou Bowie predniesol svoj ikonický prejav tesne pred záverečným prídavkom „Rock 'n' Roll Suicide“, v ktorom prekvapil všetkých, vrátane členov svojej kapely, odhalením odchodu svojej osobnosti Ziggy Stardust. Toto významné oznámenie bolo prvým svojho druhu v histórii rock and rollu.
