Pokračování diplomacie - Sektor Hirano 1
Lidé už před staletími osídlili vzdálený sektor galaxie pojmenovaný Hirano, vytvořili mezihvězdné státy a navázali kontakt s jinými mimozemskými druhy.
Jenže lidé vždy zůstanou lidmi, a tak když Astonská unie a Ballingtonské společenství nezávisle na sobě objeví soustavu bohatou na vzácné suroviny, ani jedna ze stran se jí nechce vzdát. Na povrch vybublávají staré křivdy a nevraživost, a co začalo původně jako diplomatický spor, přerůstá ve vzájemné zastrašování s pomocí válečných lodí. Celá situace se pomalu vymyká kontrole…

Probuzení Evropy
Kniha je souborem esejů a přednášek z let 1992 až 2026, které jsou zaměřené na nedávnou minulost, současnost, ale i možnou budoucnost Evropy. Důraz je kladen na střední Evropu, které se Jacques Rupnik dlouhodobě věnuje – čtenáři se zde otvírá autorův pohled na polistopadové dění nejen v Česku a sousedních zemích a jejich přemýšlení o Evropě a jejich dilemata mezi znovu získanou suverenitou a procesem evropské integrace. Hlavní myšlenkou knihy a tím, co texty spojuje, je nutnost toho, aby si Evropa uvědomila, že skončila éra otevřena rokem 1989 a v novém mezinárodním kontextu se dnes musí dokázat spojit, uvědomit si svou pozici v globalizovaném světě, a v důsledku se postarat sama o sebe – odtud i název publikace.
Jacques Rupnik navazuje na svou předchozí knihu Střední Evropa je jako pták s očima vzadu, vrací se k důležitým bodům nedávné historie středoevropského regionu a jeho podílu na transformaci Evropy.

Az Aki gróf úr akar lenni után új kaland várja az olvasót a 19. század elejének regényes Magyarországán - add át (és meg) magad neki te is!

Morsel
Lou did what the children of parents with backbreaking, poorly paying jobs are supposed to do: pulled up her bootstraps, went to college, and got an office gig with coworkers who won’t stop talking about their multilevel marketing scheme disguised as self-betterment. When Lou accepts a property appraisal assignment in the rural hills of Ohio, she knows it's her last chance to save her job and keep making rent. But she quickly finds herself stranded in the middle of nowhere with a sabotaged truck, her dog, and someone--or something--stalking her through the ancient Appalachian woods. If she can’t escape the woods in time, she’ll see firsthand that her job isn’t the only thing that wants to eat her alive. Morsel is The Blair Witch Project meets The Ritual, with a generous helping of The Menu, perfect for fans of T. Kingfisher, Cassandra Khaw, and Paul Tremblay
Uneasy Streets
Ghost neighbourhoods, trainless railways, empty offices—a bottom-up look at China’s footprint in British cities. At the high tide of UK–China relations, Chinese investors pumped billions into British property and projects each year, promising urban renewal and economic prosperity. But as political tides turned in both countries, the money dried up. A decade on, we live in the ruins of this ‘golden era’. Caroline Knowles explores China’s global influence from the bottom up. Focusing on London and Manchester, she contrasts Beijing’s grand claims with the ramshackle physical evidence she finds at street level: a series of half-finished buildings and abandoned holes in the ground. And this isn’t just a British phenomenon. All along the continent-spanning Belt and Road network, Chinese-funded cities are patchworks of incompleteness, the products of relentlessly profit-driven urbanism that puts people last. China’s soft-power city-making falls far short of the dreams displayed in glossy brochures. Combining urban observation with sharp commentary, interviewing property developers, Chinese migrants and other city-dwellers, Knowles paints an intimate, nuanced portrait. This is the material and human fabric of Chinese Britain.

Living with Lynx
This book investigates a vital and controversial question for conservation and rewilding in Britain and Ireland: could and should we learn to live with lynx, wolves and bears again? We travel back in time, around the world and into the future to explore this contested topic. The author delves deep into the human psyche, considering not only his own mixed feelings about large carnivore reintroductions but also why people have such polarised perspectives on top predators. He brings his unique combination of expertise on snow leopards – and their relationship with humans – along with his experience as a farmer to illustrate the discussion. Along the way, we meet a cast of characters from across society, including farmers, rewilders and everyone in between. It becomes clear that coexisting with large carnivores is as much about sharing landscapes with each other as it is about sharing them with wildlife. The first book to tackle this subject in detail, based on more than 50 interviews from seven countries, Living with Lynx will be of relevance to anyone with an interest in the future of nature, farming and the countryside. Personal, detailed, unflinching and engaging, it adds a great deal to this rapidly evolving debate.
