Géniusz Focikvíz
A Géniusz Focikvíz a tévénézők szeretetét már elnyerő vetélkedőműsor készítőinek tematikus különkiadványa, amely a 2026-os világbajnoksághoz kapcsolódva teszi próbára a kvíz- és focirajongók ismereteit.
Kvízkérdéseket megoldani jóval több, mint egyszerű kikapcsolódás: kinek szórakozás, kinek játék, kinek sport, kinek szenvedély, kinek mindez együtt. Ugyanezt elmondhatjuk a labdarúgásról is, kiegészítve azzal, hogy a foci mindemellett stratégiák egymásnak feszülése, labdával vívott háború, ihletett pillanatokban pedig nagybetűs Művészet.
A Géniusz Focikvíz a tévénézők szeretetét már elnyerő vetélkedőműsor készítőinek tematikus különkiadványa, amely a 2026-os világbajnoksághoz kapcsolódva teszi próbára a kvíz- és focirajongók ismereteit. A feladványok bajnokságok és kupaküzdelmek felejthetetlen pillanatait idézik fel, napjaink sztárjaihoz és a múlt legendáihoz kötődő tudásunkat tesztelik, olyan gólokra emlékeztetnek, melyek földön túli örömöket okoztak - vagy melyeket legszívesebben örökre elfelejtenénk.
Melyik edzőt szokás a Special One, azaz a Különleges néven emlegetni? Melyik az egyetlen válogatott, amelyik részt vett minden eddigi világbajnokságon? Ki szerezte 2026-ig a legtöbb gólt a Bajnokok Ligájában? Melyik magyar játékos lőtt gólt a franciáknak a 2020-as Európa-bajnokságon? Hányszor lépett pályára az Aranycsapat a klasszikus Grosics - Buzánszky, Lóránt, Lantos - Bozsik, Zakariás - Budai II., Kocsis, Hidegkuti, Puskás, Czibor felállásban?
Ilyen és ezekhez hasonló kérdésekkel találkozhatunk a Géniusz Focikvíz-t forgatva. A könyv sokszínű feladványait fejthetjük egyedül, ha szeretnénk megtudni magunkról, Messi vagy Ronaldo pályafutását ismerjük-e jobban, de játszhatunk párban vagy csapatokban is, ha kíváncsiak vagyunk, ki tud többet a Liverpoolról, a stadionok világáról, a vb-k és Eb-k emlékezetes pillanatairól vagy a magyar válogatottról.

My life has been an adventure from my early years in a caravan to what looks like a stunning finale. I’ve experienced lots of success and some failures along the way and have had the good fortune to meet many amazing characters across the globe. I was encouraged by my family to recount some of the adventures I have had, which includes a near death experience on a business trip in Syria early on when my close friend was executed and I was released. This was my life-changing moment. The opencast coal industry is where I made my fortune, giving me money enough to do many other things, including corporate takeovers, building and running businesses internationally, particularly in the Falkland Islands, Middle East and Africa. Investing in the world of performance cars and dealing with the mercurial characters for many years on the inside of Formula 1 racing. Always challenging and nothing easy, but a great way to spend a life, with a few lessons learnt to be passed on to the next generation of entrepreneurs.

Windswept
From New York Times bestselling and Newbery Honor–winning author Margi Preus, a gripping middle-grade fantasy about a girl who must save the children of her world from being “windswept.”In Tag’s world, children are disappearing. “Youngers” who venture Outside are windswept—vanishing in the swirling snow—Tag’s sisters among them. Many have tried to find the lost children; all have failed. And since the Other Times, the Powers That Be seem intent on keeping it that way. Little remains from those times: snippets of songs, heaps of plastic trash, and a few banned texts—including a book of fairy tales. An unlikely crew of Youngers join forces—Boots, who can climb anything, Ant, who will eat anything, Ren, who will say anything, and Tag, who doesn’t appear to have any talent whatsoever. With their dubious skills, the fairy tales, a possibly magic ribbon, and an unwillingness to accept “that’s impossible,” they set off to rescue their windswept siblings in this spellbinding fantasy. Includes a map and black-and-white illustrations by award-winning artist Armando Veve
Backstage Confidential
Backstage Confidential lifts the curtain on West End Theatre from a viewpoint rarely heard: the wings. Beginning his career at seventeen, Eden Phillips rose to become London’s youngest head flyman before veering into acting, writing and publishing — yet always remained an observer of the theatre’s hidden world. With warmth and wit, he evokes backstage work in the 1960s and ’70s: rigging sets, working the flys, operating revolves and tackling the countless unseen tasks that keep a show running. Along the way he encounters an array of theatrical greats, from Sir Noël Coward, Sir John Gielgud and Dame Judi Dench to directors Hal Prince and Harold Pinter. A lively, humorous and affectionate insider’s glimpse into a golden age of British theatre.
Sublimation
What would you sacrifice for a different life?
When you emigrate, you leave a version of yourself behind. Literally. One instance crosses the border; the other instance stays trapped behind it.
Some instances keep in touch, call each other daily, synchronize their lives and minds in the hopes of reintegrating and resuming a life as one person. Other instances, like Soyoung Rose Kang, leave home at age ten and never speak to their other selves again.
With a life of her own in New York, Rose never imagined she’d return to Korea. Then her grandfather dies and Soyoung, her Korean instance, summons her home for the funeral. But Soyoung’s motives aren’t as innocent as Rose imagined, and the consequences of Rose’s return to Seoul will change her forever.
Sublimation is a story of doppelgängers and corporate intrigue, heartbreak and betrayal. Nebula Award-winning author Isabel J. Kim has written an immigrant tale like no other, capturing the longing for another life and twisting it into a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse.

The Paranoid Style in American Politics
The classic and very funny account of the dark side of American politics
'Calm, clear, dispassionate and devastating - and a joy to read' Harper's
'Brilliant and influential … his evisceration of populism has found a new generation of readers' Guardian
'American political life … has served again and again as an arena for uncommonly angry minds'
How can a country be captured by rumours, surreal conspiracy theories and the most brazen of conmen? The historian Richard Hofstadter asked these questions in the 1960s, amid fears of rising extremism in America. Yet his dazzling dissection of the paranoid worldview - a brew of overheated exaggeration, suspicion and perceived victimhood that can derail entire nations - is a lesson for the ages in the seductive politics of the irrational.
In an era where we ourselves feel assailed by endless paranoid public statements it is comforting to read Hofstadter's incisive refusal to see these as something new. In his discussion of famous and obscure untruths, some of which have profoundly impacted American domestic and foreign policy, he provides the antidote for the present day.
'The Paranoid Style in American Politics' was first published as an essay in Harper's Magazine in late 1964 and has been argued over ever since.
