Sinners Atone
I was bleeding out and halfway to Hell when God sent me an angel.
He had no business sending her to a man like me.
She was sunshine wrapped in pink glitter - soft where I was jagged, and gentle enough to hurt.
Under the sick glow of a streetlamp, I was delirious enough to tell her she was beautiful.
And when she smiled and asked me to say it again, I almost believed I could be saved.
But then she asked me something else.
Something that stole the air from my lungs.
"Can you keep a secret?"
Turns out, even angels have sins. And this one should've left me to die before my world destroyed us both….

Bring the House Down
'Punchily provocative and often bitingly funny' THE TIMES, Book of the Month ‘Binge-worthy, real, really funny’ KILEY REID ‘Spiky, smart and so original’ CLAIRE DAVERLEY 'Entertaining and very timely… One of the most enjoyable novels I’ve read in a long time' GUARDIAN 'Unputdownable' DAILY MAIL A ONE WOMAN SHOW A ONE NIGHT STAND A ONE STAR REVIEW Theatre critic Alex Lyons made his name from his brutal, brilliant reviews. So when he sees Hayley Sinclair's dismal one-woman show at the Edinburgh Fringe, he thinks nothing of dashing off another of his trademark one-star pans for the newspaper. He also thinks nothing of taking her home after the performance, failing at any point to mention who he is. What he doesn't expect is for Hayley to revamp her show into a review of Alex's entire life, exposing what an awful person he really is. Worse, the show is a smash hit, and Alex is about to become national news. But can Hayley bring the establishment down without taking herself with it? Funny and thrilling, Bring the House Down gives you a front row seat to the downfall of the people who tell us what to think. It's about art, performance, female rage, and how while revenge may be sweet, it can also be perilous. 'An enticing debut. This is a binge-worthy novel that explores our obsessions, our inner critic, and who we think we are in person and in print. Intimate, real, and really funny. This one has teeth' KILEY REID 'Sharp, shrewd and witty… a stunning debut, one that I’m sure will be binge-read by many' INDEPENDENT, Book of the Month 'Dark, obsessive and razor-sharp, this is your next Baby Reindeer fix’ ELLE

Brimstone (Tündék és Alkímia 2.)
Kötelesség. Vér. Becsület. Hatalom.
Saeris Fane nem vágyott hatalomra.
Semmi örömét nem leli abban, hogy az egész udvar az ő nevét suttogja.
Sőt, most, hogy a Vér-udvar királynőjévé koronázták, rádöbben:
egy királynőnek nem lehet saját élete. Súlyos teher nehezedik a vállára.
Nevelője és öccse visszavárja őt a szülőföldjén… csakhogy azok a
változások, amelyek erősebbé tették Saerist, bizonyos szempontból
meg is gyengítették: most biztosan meghalna a két perzselő nap alatt.
Ez pedig azt jelenti, hogy ismét mást kell küldenie maga helyett…
Kingfisher hadseregeket győzött le és hátborzongató szörnyűségeket élt
túl, de a Zilvarenbe vezető út Carrion Swift oldalán talán kifog rajta.
Az a fickó egyszerűen képtelen csendben maradni. Miközben teljesíteniük
kell a küldetést, Ezüstváros szűk sikátoraiban rejtett veszélyek várnak
rájuk, és Fishernek meg kell fékeznie a csempészt is, ha újra látni akarja a párját.
Sötétség borult Yveliára. Saeris és Fisher tűzön, vízen
és kénkövön keresztül küzd, hogy megmentsék a világot.

A királyi ékszer
Amikor a tomboló vágy küzd a kötelességgel...
Wales, 1093
Nestának, Rhys herceg fiatal leányának meleg, kényelmes családi élete egy csapásra romba dől, amikor apját megölik, őt pedig fogságba ejtik. Becsülete újabb csorbát szenved, amikor akarata ellenére Vilmos király kíméletlen öccse, Henrik maga mellé veszi ágyasnak. Ráadásul Henrik
gyanús körülmények között trónra kerül...
Azonban Nesta életét igazából a házassága változtatja meg. Gerald FitzWalter, egy becsvágyó, fiatal lovag új királya iránti megingathatatlan hűségéért cserébe megkapja a lány kezét.
A lovag örömmel fogadja a jutalmat, hiszen távolról mindig is csodálta Nestát, akinek viszont az az egyetlen vigasza, hogy így visszatérhet hőn szeretett hazájába, Walesbe.
Ám ott nem tud ellenállni a walesi herceg jóképű, karizmatikus és veszélyes fia, Owain csábításának. Amikor a férfi felajánlja, hogy csatlakozzon a normann uralom megdöntésére irányuló tervéhez, Nestának választania kell a kötelesség és régi vágya között...

'[An] essential read' Emma Saunders, BBC Culture Reporter
Knowing how to speak to AI - and how not to - is a skill that everyone now needs.
Hundreds of millions of people now talk to AI, such as ChatGPT, every day. They organise their finances and holidays, ask advice, seek therapy and find love - via machines. Almost overnight, chatbots are transforming society, politics and business. This is one of the biggest and fastest technological changes in history.
However, most people still don't really understand how AI works, how to make the most of it - or what the dangers are. As some people use it to turbo-charge their productivity at work, others are falling into dangerous conspiracies, delusions and psychosis.
In How to Talk to AI, award-winning technology writer Jamie Bartlett takes you inside the machine: showing how we can stay in control of our powerful new companions, even as they are changing the way we live, feel, and think.
Written in his accessible style, How to Talk to AI is the essential and empowering guide to help you understand how to make the most of these incredible new technologies, without succumbing to new powers of manipulation and control.
