Fatima nagyon élvezi a tábort barátaival, de sajnos borzasztóan fél éjjelente a sötétben. Egyik éjszaka elejti a zseblámpáját, és hirtelen egy földrengés pusztította városban találja magát, ahol nem működnek a lámpák. Ekkor Fatima segítségére siet Bear Grylls, aki omladozó épületek között, sötét utcákon vezeti végig - és útközben, nem várt módon, társaságra is akadnak. Sikerül Fatimának helytállnia az ingatag talajon, és vajon legyőzi a sötétségtől való félelmét?

The Storyteller: Tales of Life and Music
So, I've written a book.
Having entertained the idea for years, and even offered a few questionable opportunities ('It's a piece of cake! Just do four hours of interviews, find someone else to write it, put your face on the cover, and voila!'), I have decided to write these stories just as I have always done, in my own hand. The joy that I have felt from chronicling these tales is not unlike listening back to a song that I've recorded and can't wait to share with the world, or reading a primitive journal entry from a stained notebook, or even hearing my voice bounce between the Kiss posters on my wall as a child.
This certainly doesn't mean that I'm quitting my day job, but it does give me a place to shed a little light on what it's like to be a kid from Springfield, Virginia, walking through life while living out the crazy dreams I had as young musician. From hitting the road with Scream at 18 years old, to my time in Nirvana and the Foo Fighters, jamming with Iggy Pop or playing at the Academy Awards or dancing with AC/DC and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, drumming for Tom Petty or meeting Sir Paul McCartney at Royal Albert Hall, bedtime stories with Joan Jett or a chance meeting with Little Richard, to flying halfway around the world for one epic night with my daughters...the list goes on. I look forward to focusing the lens through which I see these memories a little sharper for you with much excitement.

Rings and Gems from the Roman Fort in Iža / Prstene a gemy z rímskeho vojenského tábora v Iži
Rímsky vojenský tábor v Iži je pohraničná pevnosť Rímskej ríše na Dunaji oproti legionárskemu táboru Brigetio (dnes Ó-Szőny). Archeologický výskum na tomto mieste prebieha od začiatku 20. storočia až dodnes. Táto publikácia predstavuje prstene a gemy z areálu vojenskej pevnosti a jej bezprostredného okolia. Nálezy sú skúmané jednotlivo - ako osobné šperky, ale aj v kontexte vojenského prostredia a s prihliadnutím na nálezové okolnosti, ak sú známe. V publikácii sú rozdelené podľa vývojových fáz lokality do dvoch hlavných skupín z obdobia drevozemného tábora (174/175-179) a kamenného hradiska (koniec 2. - koniec 4. storočia). Zo staršieho obdobia je 10 prsteňov (niektoré s gemami) a 1 samostatne nájdená gema, z mladšieho obdobia 12 prsteňov (niektoré s gemami a 3 samostatne nájdené gemy. Okrem toho sú do zbierky zaradené aj 2 prstene s gemami z okolia vojenského tábora a 1 gema nájdená samostatne. The Roman fort in Iža is a frontier fortress of the Roman Empire on the Danube, opposite the legionary camp of Brigetio (today Ó-Szőny). Archaeological research at the site has been carried out since the beginning of the 20th century until today. This publication presents rings and gems from the area of the military fort and its immediate surroundings. The finds are examined individually - as personal jewellery, but also in the context of the military environment and taking into account the findspot, where known. In the publication they are divided according to the development phases of the site into two main groups from the period of the wood-and timber fort (174/175-179) and the stone fort (end of the 2nd - end of the 4th centuries). From the older period there are 10 rings and 1 gem, from the younger period 12 rings and 3 solitary gems. In addition, 2 rings with gems from the vicinity of the military camp and 1 gem found separately are also included in the collection.

Életrecept a Nightingale térről
Egy regény tele étellel, napsütéssel, barátsággal és szerelemmel. (Amazon)
Poppynak nem mindig mentek zökkenőmentesen a dolgai, de most végre karnyújtásnyira van az álmaitól.

Családjával nem a legjobb a kapcsolata, de kárpótolja baráti köre, sőt, még az is kétségtelen, hogy új, morcos szomszédja is jobban kedveli, mint azt a férfi felszíni zsörtölődése látni engedi.
Váratlanul megérkezik Poppy hányattatott életű öccse, aki igencsak megnehezíti a nő dolgát. A kertben dolgozó team elnyeri "az év közösségi tere" címet, de Poppynak döntenie kell, mi a fontosabb a számára. Ahhoz, hogy boldogan éljen, meg kell választania a harcait.

The Falling
A new love story from Anna Todd begins with THE FALLING, the first novel in a new trilogy (Brightest Stars) from the #1 internationally best-selling author of the AFTER series.
Twenty-year old Karina is proud of the independent life she is trying to create for herself in Ft. Benning, Georgia. A dutiful officer's daughter, supportive sister to a troubled twin brother, and caring friend to her roommate, Elodie, she always puts the needs of others ahead of her own, and prides herself on being a fixer of broken things-whether it's the house she's just bought or the fragmented family she works hard to keep intact.
Like anyone who has grown up around an army base, Karina also knows the background noise that follows men and women home from war. And when she meets Kael, a handsome soldier on the cusp of discharge, she's immediately intrigued by his brooding presence and enigmatic silence. As their uncertain and unexpected friendship starts to turn into something more, Karina tries to piece together Kael's story: he is emotionally closed off, recovering from wounds and other trauma in the aftermath of two tours in Afghanistan. In her practice as a physical therapist, Karina has a strong desire to help him heal, and though it challenges her many insecurities and anxieties, she has an equally strong desire to trust him. But that trust is fragile, like the preciousness of a soldier's life. It can be gone in an instant. Ultimately facing a crossroads, their relationship will be tested by the one thing that Karina cannot accept, forgive, or understand.
Anna Todd's Brightest Stars trilogy continues with THE BURNING and THE INFINITE LIGHT OF DUST, coming soon.
