Az illusztrált Vaják – Az utolsó kívánság
Ez az album A vaják című regénysorozat első kötetének utolsó novelláját, Az utolsó kívánságot kelti életre, amely Geralt és Yennefer találkozását meséli el. Geralt és Jaskier békés horgászás közben véletlenül kiszabadít egy amforába zárt dzsinnt.
A trubadúr csak egyetlen kívánságot tud kimondani, mielőtt az elszabadult lény erőszakos támadást indít ellene. Geralt a szomszéd városba, Rindébe viszi súlyosan megsebesült útitársát. Ott azt tanácsolják neki, hogy keresse fel az egyetlen személyt, aki gyógyító varázslatot képes végrehajtani, Vengerbergi Yennefert. Geralt ekkor még nem tudja, hogy sorsa örökre összefonódik a varázslónőével…
Egy író és egy festőművész találkozása. A videójáték világsikere, a Netflix kiemelt sorozata. Andrzej Sapkowski műve, A vaják univerzuma megihlette Mikaël Bourgouin illusztrátort. Ríviai Geralt világának eddig nem látott ábrázolása.

Half-Blood - Félvérek - Szövetség 0.5 és 1.
Meg fogod ölni azokat, akiket szeretsz. A véredben van, ez a sorsod.
A tizenhét éves Alex és édesanyja három éve szökött el a Szövetségből. Itt tanulnak az istenek tisztavérű leszármazottai, az olyan félig halandókat pedig, mint Alex, arra képezik ki, hogy elpusztítsák a tisztákra veszélyes daimónokat. Amikor azonban Alex egy támadás után kénytelen visszatérni a Szövetségbe, két lehetőség áll előtte: vagy a tiszták szolgálója lesz, vagy kétszer olyan keményen edz, mint a többiek, hogy behozza a lemaradását.
Bár a második lehetőség tűnik a könnyebb útnak, a dolgok még bonyolultabbá válnak, amikor a tisztavérű Aiden önként jelentkezik arra, hogy felkészíti a lányt. Aiden ugyanis nemcsak vonzó, hanem tökéletesen megérti Alexet. De a szabályok szerint a tiszták és a félvérek között szigorúan tilos bármiféle kapcsolat.
Csakhogy nem az Aiden iránt érzett szerelme jelenti a legnagyobb problémát Alex számára – megtudja, hogy az anyja miért vitte el a Szövetségből, és a daimónok is egyre közelebb kerülnek hozzá. Ha életben akar maradni, fel kell vennie a harcot… Még akkor is, ha ezzel önhibáján kívül mások halálát okozza majd.
A kötet tartalmazza a Daimón előzménytörténetként szolgáló kisregényt is, ami minden eseményt elindított!
Tedd teljessé az élményt!

Delusions of Paradise
When Maiwand Banayee was 16, he wanted to become a suicide bomber for the Taliban. In this inspiring tale of survival and self-discovery, the reader will follow Maiwand's journey down a dark path and his ultimate redemption. Growing up in Kabul amid the Afghan wars, he witnessed atrocities that no child should ever see - rotting corpses, starving families, a neighbourhood torn apart. He escaped to a refugee camp in Pakistan, where religious militants began the gradual grooming of Maiwand and other Afghan boys. These confused and traumatised children were indoctrinated, radicalised and prepared to die in the name of a religious war. But Maiwand escaped this life. Fleeing Afghanistan, he had a life-altering crisis of faith, confidence and meaning, finding new purpose and rebuilding himself. Maiwand taught himself how to read and write in English, and here tells his astonishing story in crystalline prose. Delusions of Paradise offers a powerful warning about the dangers of radical religion, and is a stunning celebration of self-determination and redemption from an important new voice. AUTHOR: Maiwand Banayee was born in in Kabul at the onset of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. By the time he was twelve the country was engulfed in civil war and he fled to a refugee camp, where he enrolled in a madrassa and joined the Taliban. At 22 he rejected Islamic extremism and sought asylum in the UK, eventually living in Ireland before returning to England. He has been published in Stinging Fly and War, Literature & the Arts: An International Journal of the Humanities. This is his first book.

Twenty Minutes of Silence
In a family home in the north of France, a crime has been committed. But a crime of what order? Who exactly is the victim and who, if anyone, is the criminal? In Twenty Minutes of Silence, Hélene Bessette unleashes a polyphonic investigation, multiplying perspectives, contradictions, questions and doubts. Everything in this high-octane drama is subject to change, including the lighting and the basic facts of the case. Composed in her signature poetic prose style, Bessette’s novella builds a world punctured by startling disruptions and unexpected shifts, and in doing so destroys and remakes the crime novel, creating a form wholly new. Devastating and exuberant, Twenty Minutes of Silence is a vital interrogation of the powerlessness of childhood, the compromises of adulthood, and the conventions of the novel itself.

How Not to Be a Political Wife
‘You think you’ve married a journalist, then, horrors, he becomes a politician.' How Not to Be a Political Wife is an unflinching account of life at the heart of politics, and what it's like to have politics rip the heart out of your life. It’s a story of high hopes and dirty tricks, broken friendships and divided loyalties, laughter and glamour. Recollections, as a great woman once said, may of course vary, but this is my story, the way I remember it, written with no fear, no favour – and no fucks left to give. Buckle up. I thought long and hard about writing this memoir. I’ve done so not to settle old scores or plead my case, but more because I hope it’s a tale worth telling, not just for those who are interested in the political events of the past few years, but also because it’s about the people and characters behind those events, and why things ended up the way they did. For nearly 20 years I was inside the rooms of government, a sanctioned eavesdropper on the rise – and fall – of the Cameroon style of Conservatism. At the same time I was building a career in journalism, raising two children and doing my best to support my own husband, Michael Gove, on his political journey. I was both an insider and an outsider; an observer – via my journalism – as well as a participant in the cut and thrust (mainly cut, if I’m honest) of frontline politics. After my divorce from Michael and the demise of the Conservatives’ Old Guard, that all came to an end. I’m no longer officially a Westminster WAG, but you won’t find me mourning. Politics trampled my health, my happiness, my marriage, my sanity; it placed intolerable pressure on my loved ones, especially my children; it twisted my sense of self, and others’ sense of me; it tainted everything I did or said. I can’t say I miss it. I do, however, miss the life and the relationships I had before it all. These are the recollections of a survivor, but they are also a love letter to all that was lost in the wreck. 'Sarah Vine is the Bridget Jones of politics.' Plum Sykes 'Everyone in Westminster is talking about it.' The London Standard 'I take it all back; she's fabulous. Nobody in Westminster can afford not to buy this book.' Rachel Johnson
