Ghost Army
During World War II, a 1,100-man unit known as the Ghost Army was sent to Europe with an important mission: mislead Hitler’s forces as to the size and location of Allied troops so that those troops would have time to carry out urgent plans of their own. This unit of artists, musicians, actors, architects, set designers, and engineers came together to construct “shadow soldiers” and put on a traveling show of deception for over twenty different campaigns throughout the war, using everything from fake radio transmissions to inflatable tanks to convince the enemy of their presence.
Exit Wound
Detective Veranda Cruz’s ultimate showdown with the patriarch of a notorious crime family tests her loyalty, courage, and identity in a riveting thriller by the bestselling author of The Cipher. Detective Veranda Cruz’s single-minded mission to destroy the Villalobos crime family has cost her more than she ever would have imagined, both professionally and personally. And put her squarely in their sights. A brutal enforcer has agreed to turn state’s evidence, offering vital information that will end the Villalobos dynasty’s thirty-year reign of terror. But when an extradition operation crashes and burns, a new series of murders terrorizes the city. As Veranda navigates increasingly deadly threats, she realizes the mastermind pulling the strings is the organization’s notorious patriarch: Hector Villalobos. After she deals his empire a stunning blow, Hector declares all-out war, arriving in Phoenix for a final showdown with Veranda. She has no choice but to confront him and the twisted ties that bind them. It’s a battle only one of them can survive.
Hunt the Ever Wild
When the king calls a hunt for the Lichtenwald forest’s elusive phoenix, wizard Sy jumps at the chance. Years ago, he indentured himself to the crown to pay for his magical education, and an unbreakable spell binds him to carry out the king’s every wicked whim, or face certain death. The prize is enough to pay off his debt, but he can’t survive the forest alone. Seeking help, he finds Anya, a skilled huntress living on the Lichtenwald’s edge, and lies about splitting the prize. But Anya’s lying too. Cursed by a witch after killing her familiar, Anya must find the phoenix and bind it to the witch by the summer solstice, or else suffer a gruesome transformation. With the curse worsening and the Lichtenwald swarming with wizards, she needs Sy on her side – for now. Neither of them can split the prize, nor win alone. And despite the growing attraction between them, betrayal remains their only option. But anything is possible in the forest. And the forest is hungry.

The Public Scholar
A practical guide for scholars ready to write beyond the academy. Public scholarship should not be reserved for celebrity intellectuals or tenured faculty at elite institutions. It's designed for anyone who wants to share their academic work and engage with the public beyond the classroom or conference panel. In The Public Scholar, historian and journalist David M. Perry offers a clear, candid, and practical guide to writing for public audiences. Rather than debating whether academics should write for the public, Perry focuses on the practical details of how to approach public scholarship. How do you pitch a piece to an editor? What counts as evidence in a 900-word op-ed? When should you follow or ignore the rules of the genre? And what happens once your piece is out in the world? Covering the full life cycle of public writing, Perry walks readers through pitching, writing, editing, publishing, building a platform, and navigating the real-world risks and rewards that come with stepping into the public sphere. As the author of multiple best-selling books and over five hundred essays, Perry shares insights that are direct, hard-won, and refreshingly honest. He explains how public-facing work can support an academic career, how it can provide leverage for tenure and promotion, and, importantly, how it can also live outside traditional institutional paths. Perry's accessible approach invites scholars at all stages to consider what public engagement might look like in their own lives. Whether you're hoping to write for major newspapers, connect with communities beyond your discipline, or simply make your research more visible, The Public Scholar offers the right tools to help you get started.

Escape Volume 1
"A gripping, relentlessly paced, and emotionally resonant thriller." —Library Journal (starred review) SHOT DOWN. HUNTED. OUT OF TIME. Set in a brutal, fully painted world of anthropomorphic animals—equal parts Inglourious Basterds and Watership Down—ESCAPE is a gritty, bullet-riddled journey through war’s scorched aftermath. It’s about the violence we inflict, the souls we try to save, and the courage it takes to crawl out of fire. From the creative team of New York Times bestselling author Rick Remender (Deadly Class, Uncanny X-Force) and powerhouse Daniel Acuna (Captain America, Black Panther)—the duo behind Marvel’s Uncanny Avengers—comes a savage, full-throttle wartime thriller where survival isn’t given… it’s taken. Milton Shaw is a battle-hardened bomber pilot, flying missions over a war-torn world ruled by a ruthless empire. But when his plane is shot out of the sky, Milton wakes up behind enemy lines—in the smoldering ruins of a city he helped burn. And in less than 24 hours, his own side is dropping the big one to finish the job. Now, injured, unarmed, and being hunted through enemy streets, Milton’s only shot at escape comes from the unlikeliest place: a grieving father and his son—civilians shattered by the same fascist regime that rules this land with an iron claw. Enemies by blood. Allies by circumstance. Together, they’ll have to fight their way out before the bomb drops and erases everything… and everyone. Collects issues #1-6
85 Seconds to Midnight
A warning to humankind from one of the world’s greatest physicists'What drives these pages is the guilty conscience of my profession, theoretical physics. My sole aim is to help avert what seems to me to be the unintended, yet scarcely avoidable, end point of the current politics of the governments we have elected: nuclear war.'The world is rearming and embroiled in endless conflict. The Doomsday Clock has now been set to 85 seconds to midnight, with the risk of nuclear war the highest it has ever been. Why do we always fail to learn from the pas? n this urgent book, acclaimed physicist Carlo Rovelli reframes the history of nuclear weapons: from how the atomic bomb was born to why Germany didn't build it and why the US used it, to the narrowly averted disasters of the Cold War and the political brinkmanship careering out of control today. As he grapples with the legacy of his scientific forebears, Rovelli spotlights the true nature of the decisions being made by leaders around the world today. A timely and ardent warning, this searing reckoning with short-sighted politics is essential reading for anyone seeking sanity at our moment of greatest peril.
Judas Kiss
When Lieutenant Taylor Jackson investigates a brutal killing, she uncovers a web of intimacies, blackmail, and family betrayal in this twisted tale from New York Times bestselling author J.T. Ellison. It’s one of the most horrific crimes Nashville’s Lieutenant Taylor Jackson has ever seen: a twenty-six-year-old pregnant woman beaten to death in her own bedroom, her young daughter left to wander the house, alone and covered in blood. The evidence points squarely at the husband—until Taylor discovers a link to a local trafficking network, one that reaches into the darkest corners of the city. As she closes in on the heart of a vast conspiracy, private videos of Taylor and her former partner surface online. Publicly humiliated and personally exposed, Taylor must solve the case before her career is permanently destroyed—or her tormenters decide a dead detective is better than a living one. Revised edition: This edition of Judas Kiss includes editorial revisions.
Erotikus intelligencia
Vágyhatunk-e arra, ami már a miénk?
Miért nincs szex, ha szeretjük egymást? Miért nem elég a közelség a jó szeretkezéshez? Miért múlik el a vonzalom, miután gyerekünk születik?
E könyv első, 2006-os megjelenése óta 30 nyelven több millió olvasót hódított meg, szerzője, Esther Perel pedig a világ legismertebb párkapcsolati szakértőjévé, valódi ikonná vált. Hatalmas sikerének titka, hogy revelatív válaszokat ad egy gyakran még mindig tabunak számító kérdésre: mit tehetünk, hogy a szexualitás házasságban is a kapcsolódás izgalmas és fontos terepe maradjon, azaz hogyan egyeztethetjük össze biztonság iránti vágyunkat a szabadság és a szenvedély keresésével? A vonzalom fenntartása összetett dolog, mert számos társadalmi, kulturális és pszichológiai hatóerő formálja azt, ami oly intimnek hitt hálószobánk falai között történik: női és férfi szerepeink, családi mintázataink, a szülői lét mindent átható felelőssége vagy éppen a túlzott érzelmi összeolvadás. Ennek ellenére, ahogy ebből a már klasszikussá vált alapműből kiderül, a szex sok együtt töltött év után is lehet játékos, kreatív, érzéki. Perel könyve nemcsak okos és szellemes elméleti munka, hanem izgalmas esetleírások tárháza, amiből mindenki inspirálódhat, aki szeretné elsajátítani a vágy felébresztésének képességét. A nagy sikerű, korábban Szeretkezés fogságban című kötetet most javított kiadásban, jubileumi előszóval kiegészítve vehetik kezükbe a magyar olvasók.

A právě ve chvíli, kdy je situace nejkritičtější, se před nimi znenadání objeví… Třetí kniha rozsáhlého dobrodružství prolínajícího přátelství se zármutkem!
Fangirl Down – Szurkolói szerelem
Wells Whitaker egykor a golf kiemelkedő tehetsége volt, de mára „sikeres” karrierjéből csak a gyilkos másnaposság, egy gyűjteményre való összetört ütő és egyetlen rajongó maradt. Mindegy, milyen rosszul játszik, a csodás, ragyogó mosolyú, vörös hajú lány mindig ott van a pálya szélén.
Ennek azonban vége szakad: Wells egy látványos jelenet közepette feladja a versenyt, hűséges rajongója is végleg hátat fordít neki, és a férfi rádöbben, hogy élete legnagyobb hibáját követte el. Josephine Doyle talán az utolsó ember, aki még hisz a már saját magáról is lemondó, szívdöglesztő, örökké morcos golfozóban. Amikor a férfi azzal az őrült ötlettel áll elé, hogy legyen az új caddie-je és segítsen neki visszakerülni a csúcsra, majd osszák el a versenyen kapott pénzdíjat, igent mond. Josephine szakmai és magánélete is romokban hever, jól jönne neki a pénz…
Ahogy együtt utazgatnak, szikrázni kezd közöttük a levegő. Miközben Wells újra a győzelem felétör, a lány meglepődve fedezi fel, hogy a mogorva külső egy kedves, figyelmes srácot rejt. Ez a dögös pasi megfésüli a haját, finom falatokkal kényezteti, és közösen akar vele habfürdőzni. Ez a való világ? Wells azonban gyakorlatilag a főnöke, és még a gondolat is nevetséges, hogy egy sportoló beleszerethet a rajongójába… Nem igaz?

Pretty monster - Gyönyörű szörnyeteg - (Különleges kiadás)
"ÉLDEKORÁLT KIADÁS! Éjszakánként figyel engem.
Bemászik a nappalim ablakán, és jéggé fagyasztja a vérem. Érzem a jelenlétét. A hideg végigkúszik a gerincemen. Minden éjjel egyre merészebb. Hívatlanul lép be a hálószobámba, hogy kielégítse a függőségét.
Amikor megérzem bőrének forróságát, alvást színlelek. Rettegek, mihez kezd velem, de amikor hozzám ér, az egész testem lángra lobban. Sosem láttam az arcát, a nevét sem tudom, mégis vágyom rá. Minden porcikám azt üvölti, hogy ez bűn, mégsem zárom be az ablakot. Nem mondom ki azt az egyetlen szót: nem.
Alex Reid nem hős. Sötét múltú férfi. Képzett gyilkos. Bármit megtesz, hogy megvédje azt, amit a magáénak tekint. De ki az igazi szörnyeteg? Az, aki az árnyékból figyel, hogy vigyázzon rád, vagy aki a szemedbe mosolyogva árul el?
Beteg az elméje. A rajongása rabja. A saját elcseszett játszmájának megszállottja. De talán én sem vagyok különb nála. Mert akár tetszik, akár nem… a stalkerem függőjévé váltam."

The Living Declaration: A Biography of America''s Founding Text
INDEPENDENCE WAS ONLY THE BEGINNING: A historian and former presidential speechwriter traces the origins and legacy of the words and ideas that made America. Illustrations and close readings of 68 original texts offer new insights on the American Revolution, the Civil War, and other key moments and figures in American history.We hold these truths to be self-evident . . . all men are created equal . . . with certain inalienable rights . . . life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” 250 years after they were written, these words remain at once familiar and startling. What do they mean to us today? Do we understand them in the same way the Founders did? Historian and former presidential speechwriter Ted Widmer seeks to answer these questions by returning to where the nation’s story began, the Declaration of Independence, to trace the remarkable history of how it came to be and how it has shaped the democratic aspirations of Americans and others for more than two centuries. Weaving together more than sixty fascinating original texts, Widmer finds in the words of succeeding generations of Americans—radicals and conservatives, revolutionary insurgents and civil rights leaders, presidents and philosophers—the key to understanding the extraordinary durability of America’s founding ideas.An expert guide, Widmer introduces us to: the revolutionary writings that set the stage for the Declaration Noah Webster, of dictionary fame, offering a surprising definition of “equality”the true story of a fake declaration of independence “discovered” in Mecklenburg, North Carolina, in 1819 searing challenges to the Declaration’s philosophical claims by Frederick Douglass and Elizabeth Cady Stanton radically divergent readings of the Declaration that contributed to the Civil War, and Abraham Lincoln’s vision of a “new birth of freedom”the ways in which the Declaration inspired civil rights activists in the twentieth and twenty-first centurieshow the Declaration inspired democratic aspirations globally.The voices gathered here are impassioned and often disagree, but they are united in the belief that the Declaration has something crucial to tell us about the American people and the larger struggle for human freedom. “They speak to us,” Widmer writes, “and they talk to each other as well, in a conversation that will never end.”
