A shaggy-dog graphic novel love story to melt the coldest of hearts.
If you can't believe in a cute, funny boy who was nice to you once . . . what can you believe in?

Bernie has just dropped out of university and Brad, working for an environmental charity, is trying not to have a meltdown about the melting ice caps. When the pair crash into one another's lives, they em(bark) on a series of dates - new food spots, terrible films, nights in and mishaps a plenty - as they realise that maybe it's not just about meeting the right match, but whether you can then make it work.
Funny, anxious, and heartwarming, this is the story of two dogs trying to find hope in love, and in each other.
Szitakötő - Nemzedékünk regénye
Ha egy nemzedék legfényesebb elméi pislákolni kezdenek, s aztán végleg kihunynak - azt iszonyú nehéz elfogadni. Főleg amikor a Szitakötő, a tizenöt éve róluk írt regény újra megjelenik, valamicskét javítgatott szöveggel. Hajdani tisztánlátásom immár meglep, tévedéseim némelyike mosolyt kelt. Szárnycsattogtatás és sokféle zizegés a levegőben. Valamint - ahogyan az egyik szereplőm mondja: - sok férfisírás. Amit gyakran koedukált nevetés követ. Íme a nyolcak hiteles históriája, akik a gyerekkori hízótáborban ismerkedtek össze, s azután háromnegyed évszázadon át kísérték figyelemmel az életünket. Ami jószerivel egybeesett Magyarhon legújabbkori történelmével. Az annak idején jövőbelinek szánt utolsó fejezet 2026-ban játszódik. A Szitakötő tehát utolérte az időt. (Vámos Miklós)
Zaklínač II.: Meč osudu
Zaklínač – ošlehaný muž bez věku, jehož bílé vlasy nejsou znakem stáří, ale mutace, kterou musel podstoupit. Placený i dobrovolný likvidátor prapodivných tvorů: mantichor, trollů, vidlohonů, strig, amfisbain – pokud ovšem ohrožují lidský rod; v takovém případě zabíjí i bytost zvanou člověk. Prvotřídní, skvělý bojovník, který není neporazitelný ani nezranitelný – naopak, téměř z každého dobrodružství si odnáší další šrámy na těle i na duši.
Zrádné tropy (základní verze)
Za zlatem, slávou a průšvihy! Zrádné tropy nás v krkolomných zvratech rafinovaného a prudce pádícího děje zavedou stejně tak do bájného Eldoráda jako do paláců španělských velmožů, do hlubin peruánských dolů či na vrcholky hor, do džunglí i do pustin. Španělské „pikareskní romány“ vyprávějí o životě nějakého šibala či lotra. Mezi ty nejslavnější právem patří dílo Franciska de Queveda ze sedmnáctého století nazvané Život rošťáka. De Quevedův román končí tím, že „hrdina“ Pablos odplouvá do Nového světa. Vynikající scenárista Alain Ayroles a Juanjo Guarnido, kreslíř, jejž nejvíce proslavila série Blacksad, se rozhodli odvyprávět pokračování tohoto příběhu. Příhody nenapravitelného ničemy Pablose v Jižní Americe uvádějí na scénu barvitou mozaiku krajin od Amazonie po Kordillery a lidí i lidiček od španělských grandů až po uprchlé otroky, což umožnilo Guarnidovi předvést celou paletu velkolepých scenérií, ohromujících barev a karikovaných postav, jak to od něj známe z Blacksada.

Against all odds, she rises from these humble beginnings to unimaginable heights, becoming a successful restaurant owner and wealthy socialite. She builds an incredible life for herself and her family, but there’s a secret she’s kept hidden…As Zennor uncovers the unexpected parallels between Grace’s life and her own, she realises that they’ve both been faced with a life-changing decision.

The Making of the Modern Middle East
Jeremy Bowen, the International Editor of the BBC, has been covering the Middle East since 1989 and is uniquely placed to explain its complex past and its troubled present. In The Making of the Modern Middle East he offers a gripping and invaluable guide, showing how it came to be and what its future might hold.
In part based on his acclaimed podcast, 'Our Man in the Middle East', Bowen takes us on a journey across the Middle East and through its history. He meets ordinary men and women on the front line, and their leaders, whether brutal or benign. He explores the power games that have so often wreaked devastation on civilian populations as those leaders, whatever their motives, jostle for political, religious and economic control.
Clear throughout is Bowen's deep understanding of the political, cultural and religious differences between countries as diverse as Erdogan's Turkey, Netanyahu's Israel and Palestine, whether Hamas-controlled Gaza or the West Bank. His long experience of covering events in the region make this an extraordinarily powerful account of one of the world's greatest problems.
On Thin Ice
I have one shot to build a better life—not just for me, but for my little brother still stuck in the dump I escaped from. Now that I’ve gotten to Sovereign Kings University, I have to make it worth it. Keep my head down, ignore the rich kids, and graduate.
At least that was my plan before I busted a hockey player’s knee and became public enemy number one. Now the team’s golden boy captain, Alexander, leads the charge against me. Kane, the brooding defenseman never misses a chance to humiliate me. Yet, being painfully ignored by Mountain, the reserved giant of a goalie, may just hurt the most.
Beneath their hostility I find sparks of desire and unexpected depth, but can I risk losing my heart to one hockey player—let alone all three? I’m certainly in for a long, hard season.

Finnegans Wake
'A great comic vision, one of the few books of the world that can make us laugh aloud on nearly every page' - Anthony Burgess
James Joyce's final work, Finnegans Wake, conjures up the dark underground worlds of sexuality and dream with supreme linguistic virtuosity. Here Joyce undermines traditional storytelling and the English language, and confronts the different kinds of betrayal - cultural, political and sexual - that he saw at the heart of Irish history. Dazzlingly inventive, with passages of great lyrical beauty and humour, Finnegans Wake remains one of the most remarkable works of the twentieth century.
'Here words are not the polite contortions of twentieth-century printer's ink. They are alive. They elbow their way on to the page, and glow and blaze and fade and disappear' Samuel Beckett
With a new introduction by Brian Fox.

Rasputin Swims the Potomac
IN A WORLD THAT'S LIKE OURS BUT EVEN STRANGER . . .
A TV star president is campaigning for a constitutionally dubious third term, normal Americans are falling into an unexplained weeping sickness and a wrestler claiming to be the reincarnated mystic Rasputin is making a spandex-clad entrance into politics.
Meanwhile Clarence Thomas Jr. is a journalist just trying to make sense of his country as it unmoors from reality. But with violence and bullshit erupting everywhere, things seem to be approaching collapse. Or maybe it's all building to a grand gesture: something political, romantic, religious, insane and quite possibly fatal.
From award-winning author Ben Fountain, Rasputin Swims the Potomac is outrageously funny, wildly imagined and razor-sharp satire. It asks: what could possibly grow out of what we have now, except for something even stranger, harder to grasp and more tumultuous? And will what comes next be better or, somehow, even worse?
The Duke
Set in a world of powerful female nobles and the women who love them... Kate, Duke of Howard, is known throughout Europe as a merciless autocrat not to be crossed. Consumed by a bitter rivalry, she avoids society and has vowed never to trap a woman into marriage with a monster like herself. The beautiful, ambitious courtesan Celine Genet once threw herself on the mercy of the visiting Duke of Howard. She was desperate to escape the guillotine. But after a night of searing passion, the duke left her to the ravages of Revolutionary Paris and didn’t look back. Now Celine is in London and in possession of a dangerous letter that proves the Duke of Howard committed treason as a child - and possibly even murder. Celine wants a titled husband in return for keeping the duke’s secret, leaving Kate no choice but to parade her around the most fashionable ballrooms. But as Celine takes society by storm, Kate finds herself growing fond of the woman set on destroying her. And as their attraction mounts, Kate faces an impossible choice: keep her childhood secret, or win the woman she loves. Anna Cowan's The Duke is an utterly unforgettable, page-turning romance featuring two women who, separately, are a danger to each other, but together, could be the most powerful duo London has ever seen.

Everything in Color
Stephanie grew up in an evangelical community where love and obedience were overlapping themes. In this world, sin was inevitable, her body was a temptation, and desire was dangerous. Her own thoughts could not be trusted, because she was only saved if she believed the 'right things' about God. But as she grew, built a life of her own, and fell in love with a young seminarian named James, the complexities of the human experience became impossible to ignore. Was God truly so exacting and judgmental? Could faith exist beyond these rigid borders? Could love be both passionate and pure? Her connection to James—honest, caring, and sensual—became a safe place for her worldview to expand. And when their son was born, she understood love in a whole new way… suddenly, everything was sacred, everything was in colour. Through striking prose and beautiful mixed media illustrations, Stalvey takes us on an emotional journey of faith, romance, motherhood, and loss. With tenderness and honesty, she unravels the fear and guilt woven into her past, reclaims her sense of self, and shows us how to embrace a love that is healing, transformative, and wholly one's own.
