Cereal Savages
Dive spoon-first into a big bowl of ’80s nostalgia with lead Garbage Pail Kids artist Joe Simko and DC/Marvel and television writer Hans Rodionoff (Voltron, The Muppets Mayhem). With a laugh-out-loud foreword by Adam F. Goldberg, creator of TV’s The Goldbergs, this first-in-series graphic novel serves up MAD-magazine energy, pop-culture mayhem, and cartoon craziness—wrapped in one sugary, collectible package. Meet the CEREAL SAVAGES: four disgraced cereal mascots from the 1980s now struggling to survive in the modern world. With help from their middle-aged superfan Mike, they’ll confront old demons, repair broken friendships, and battle an oozy, apocalyptic milk monster threatening the globe. It’s heartfelt. It’s ridiculous. It’s crunchy chaos at its finest. This LIMITED EDITION HARDCOVER is a treat all on its own, featuring shimmering blue foil-gilded page edges, a pink ribbon marker, and enough retro flavor to teleport you straight back to Saturday-morning cartoons. Even R.L. Stine (Goosebumps) couldn’t resist: “Are they superheroes—or just flakes? This hilarious book kept me choking with laughter till long after breakfast!”
Goering's Suicide
Ever since Reichsmarschall Hermann Goering, Commander-in-Chief of the Luftwaffe and deputy Führer, crunched a cyanide capsule between his teeth and died the night before his execution for war crimes, speculation about his death has never ended. The question of how Goering obtained the poison led to an official investigation, several reviews, intense debates, many books and articles, and several dramatizations and documentaries. Yet none have been able to provide a compelling and convincing explanation. The answer to this riddle was in fact unfathomable without the knowledge of key pieces of information contained within statements made by two military personnel who, late in their lives, revealed that they had been present during that history-defining moment of 1945. Combined with all the documentation previously obtained by investigators, and recently published records, the actual sequence of events of that fateful day can at last be understood. Just six US and British officers knew what took place on the day Goering received the cyanide capsule that allowed him to escape being hanged by his enemies and, in the eyes of his legions of followers, die a martyr – the very end the Allies were so desperate to avoid. Of those six Allied officers, four died taking their secrets with them. The revelations of the remaining two only came to light during casual meetings. The disclosures made by the first of the two former wartime officers, during an interview he gave in 2003, are as astounding as they are unequivocal – yet it seems they have never been fully scrutinised until now. Goering’s Suicide: ‘They Will Not Hang Me!’ chronicles events that occurred in Nuremberg during the crucial eight-week period in the autumn of 1945 that immediately preceded the start of the International Military Tribunal in which twenty-four leaders of Nazi Germany who had planned, carried out, or otherwise participated in the Holocaust and other war crimes, were tried. The author, Paul Hooley, believed the information received about Goering’s suicide was too important for it not to be shared with the world. Now, the truth has been revealed.
Exile
Discover a thrilling true story of treachery, deceit, hope and despair. From the moment Mary, Queen of Scots set foot on English soil in 1568 until her execution at Fotheringhay Castle on 8 February 1587, she was the prisoner of her cousin, Elizabeth I. Unlike Mary’s time on the Scottish throne, the dramatic events of these years – almost half her life – took place while she was a captive. But while trouble was perpetually simmering beyond her prison walls, within them Mary was constantly plotting. Only towards the end did she lose faith in returning to her homeland as rightful ruler. This is the story of Mary’s tumultuous later years, told through the many atmospheric locations where she was confined. Drawing on the latest research, including a treasure trove of recently decoded letters, Exile sheds fascinating new light on her captivity and the charged political climate of the period. Reading like a 16th-century thriller, this account of treachery, deceit, hope and despair is a penetrating and enthralling psychological portrait of one of history’s endlessly fascinating queens.
4 Janes
Through time, space, and the transcendence of maternal love, Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre is reimagined in the parallel lives of one soul searching for meaning, connection, and a place to belong. Jane Eyre is a missionary’s wife. A bookseller in Vietnam. A time traveler. A hero in a modern gothic tale. What if Jane’s story didn’t end with her marriage to Edward Rochester? What if she never married him at al? n one lifetime, Jane travels to India and Burma as Mrs. St. John Rivers. In another, she’s Trang, a young woman selling books in Vietnam, vying for the love of the local priest. Yet another picks up where Brontë left her, now grieving the loss of her child and crossing time and space to find him. And finally, a young Vietnamese-American man searching for himself in Boston, a tutor whose relationship with a veteran feels strangely, achingly familiar…Each thread tells Jane’s story in sweeping, heartbreaking shades of loss, vulnerability, yearning, and the fierce love of mother and child that withstands time and space. While she may long for something more out of a life she didn’t get to choose, she can still decide what to make of it.
Never Afrer 6: Pohlceni
Enzo Marino má jakožto syn nejmocnějšího šéfa americko-italské mafie život od narození pečlivě naplánovaný. Když jeho bratr tragicky zemře, je proti své vůli nucen převzít jeho roli, ale už jako malý se naučil, že to, co si přeje, musí ustoupit zájmům rodiny. Když se i on jednoho dne octne na prahu smrti a z jejích spár ho vyrve dcera Krále moří, nejmocnějšího muže Jižní Karolíny, jeho otec se chopí příležitosti. Jak lépe se krásné zpěvačce odvděčit a spojit dvě mocné zločinecké rodiny než skrze svatbu? Enzo se jako vždy otcově přání podřídí, protože povinnosti vůči rodině jsou přece důležitější než skutečné pouto a otcovo slovo je zákon. Tomu alespoň věří do chvíle, než se seznámí se sestřenicí své nastávající.
Venesa Andersenová je pravá ruka svého strýce, který se jí ujal, když přišla o rodiče. Ačkoli bez váhání plní každý úkol v naději, že si tím vydobude jeho lásku a uznání, stále ji tíží starý známý pocit z dětství, že není dost dobrá. Jejím nejvroucnějším přáním je, aby si jí někdo konečně všímal a viděl ji takovou, jaká je. A to se jí také záhy splní. Háček ale spočívá v tom, že dotyčný už je zasnoubený – a jeho ženou se má stát její zhýčkaná, nenáviděná sestřenice.

Apology of a Loser
Apology of a Lose? s an essay that critically explores the dynamics of success and failure in contemporary society. It questions a culture obsessed with individual achievement and challenges the widespread belief that personal will is the primary driver of success. Divided into three sections, this essay first examines how the concept of success is shaped by historical and social forces, especially the neoliberal ideology that links achievement solely to merit, ignoring the crucial roles of socio-economic background, chance, and privilege. The second section dismantles the myth of meritocracy, showing--through historical cases and sociological research--how success often depends on external, unpredictable factors. It critiques the circular logic that equates success with talent and highlights the cumulative advantages that widen social inequalities, even among equally capable individuals. In its final section, the essay proposes a cultural shift: learning to fail. It redefines failure not as personal defeat but as a meaningful part of life, essential for growth and self-awareness. By rejecting the toxic pursuit of success at all costs, Apology of a Lose? ffers a more balanced, human, and sustainable vision of personal fulfillment.
Jane Fonda
Since the late 1960s, Jane Fonda has identified as an activist first and an actor second, using her celebrity as a vehicle to convey her views and her advocacy. Few stars of her stature have been as simultaneously acclaimed and vilified as Fonda. Even as she won two Academy Awards and was a major box office draw of the 1970s and 1980s, she received reams of hate mail for her political activism and antiwar stances. This book explores Fonda's devotion to movement politics—sometimes at the expense of her career and her personal safety. Digging deep into rare material from cinema archives and Fonda's own personal papers, journalist Marilyn Greenwald tells the story of how Fonda came to view acting as a "side gig" that gives her a worldwide platform to convey her personal and political views. Charting the evolution of her activism and the merging of her acting and producing with her advocacy, Greenwald focuses on the years from 1968—when she was jarred out of complacency by the Vietnam War—to 1980, after the release of The China Syndrome and the advent of the Three Mile Island nuclear crisis, which brought to light the possible dangers of nuclear energy. Greenwald details how three of her films—Klute (1971), Coming Home (1978), and The China Syndrome (1979)—were designed to further her personal beliefs. She also considers how Fonda has weathered changes in the entertainment industry and public tastes to produce and star in decades' worth of socially conscious projects. Charting Fonda's personal and professional growth while offering a candid account of her struggles, this book shows how Fonda viewed movies as an influential storytelling tool that can influence public opinion, change minds, and trigger social change.
Texan Crucible
A history of European immigrants in Texas and how they redefined racial identity. While the creation of a Black-White racial binary was foundational to most of the United States, nineteenth-century Texas developed a unique tripartite system that acknowledged the role of individuals of Mexican ancestry in a region that was Spanish, Mexican, and an independent nation before becoming a US (and briefly Confederate) state. Yet this framework was fraught, struggling to accommodate new arrivals from beyond North America, in particular the Irish, Germans, and Czechs. Texan Crucible tells the story of these immigrants and how they became Anglo. Marian Barber reveals the ways language, religion, alcohol use, and attitudes toward slavery distinguished these newcomers to Texas from those arriving from the eastern United States and how they nevertheless created thriving, influential communities. Their status was shaped by events inside and far beyond Texas, including an 1887 prohibition fight, the Civil War, and two world wars that encouraged them to erase their distinctiveness. As segregation was formally outlawed and civil rights activism grew, understandings of race shifted, cementing these groups’ status as Anglo. Texan Crucible recovers the histories of German, Irish, and Czech immigrants and unveils the social construction of racial difference underpinning Texan identity.
Possibility and Statistics
“Possibility and Statistics” (P.S.) is a rigorously ethical, mixed-method way of knowing that centers lived experience, assets, and human agency; treats oral narratives as primary data; and designs measures, tools, and dissemination practices to cultivate flourishing rather than manage risk. Ivory A. Toldson’s Possibility and Statistics is more than a book about statistical methods; it is a profound and necessary intervention into the soul of education and social science. It is a methodological treatise and a deeply personal work of literary scholarship that redefines the purpose of data in a world saturated with it. By developing a new statistical language, Toldson demonstrates that the principles of possibility—care, context, and potential—can be as analytically rigorous as the principles of probability. Possibility and Statistics introduces a new analytical toolkit; formula-driven methods designed to quantify hope. Metrics like the Overcoming Adversity Index (OAI), which measures success relative to context; the Potential Realization Quotient (PRQ), which quantifies achievement beyond statistical expectations; and the Resource Parity Index (RPI), which measures inequities in resources, give practitioners tangible tools. Toldson crafts a powerful argument that the tools of statistics, so often used to document despair and predict failure, must be re-engineered to architect hope and cultivate human potential. The result is a work that is at once a rigorous academic text and a moral call to arms for researchers, educators, policymakers, and anyone who wields data that touches human lives.
The Thickets
This novel is the first part of the Ukrainian Trilogy of Polish poet and novelist Józef Łobodowski. Written between 1955 and 1960, the action of the trilogy plays out, for the most part, in the Kuban areas of Russia. Here Ukrainian, Russian, and Cossack live alongside and interact with Tatar and Circassian; there was also a large influx of other nationalities subject to the Tsar, such as Armenians and Poles — to which latter nation belongs Staś (Stanisław), the main character of the trilogy. The Thickets presents the reader with a vivid picture of the chaos that reigned in the former Russian Empire following the toppling and execution of the Tsar, and the fall of Kerensky’s government. Young Staś, who had studied at the local classical gymnasium, is now reduced to peddling contraband on the black market, discovers to the reader’s eyes the chaos of war and occupation in an especially visceral way.

Farris carefully examines some of the best-laid arguments for the soul, ultimately advancing his own, claiming that embracing the concept of the soul allows for a more coherent and satisfying explanation of human consciousness and personal identity.
