Under the Surface – A felszín alatt (Éldekorált kiadás)
Egy világ, ahol a mágia nem kiváltság – hanem kötelezettség.
Namia Faye az árvaházban nőtt fel egy olyan birodalomban, ahol minden fiatalnak kötelező kiválasztáson kell átesnie, hogy eldőljön, milyen úton szolgálja majd a hazáját: harcosként a Vasfény Képzőben, tudósként az Ezüsttan Képzőben, vagy arcanusként az Arcanumban.
Namia éveken át készült, hogy Ezüst tanoncként, azaz tudósként folytassa életét. De van valami, amit mások nem tudnak: hónapok óta kísérti ugyanaz az álom, és benne egy alak, akit nem ismer – mégis valahogy úgy érzi, ismernie kellene.
Titkok, amiket nem lehet eltemetni.
És egy fiatal lány, akinek a sorsa többről dönt, mint amit valaha elképzelt.
A származásod nem határozza meg, ki vagy.
A döntéseid formálnak azzá.
Who Dat Noise?

On his quest, he is accompanied by Tannie Annie, an ex-soldier, Lans, the Australian barman, and Geoff, an ex-intelligence officer, as well as Jean and his wife Margaritta. With these unlikely allies at his side, he battles towards a final explosive confrontation with General Pretorious on the South Downs of Southern England.
Freedom Round the Globe
A fresh and surprising history that reckons with a defining global moment on its 250th anniversary: The American Revolution.
In this authoritative revisionist history, prize-winning historian Sarah M. S. Pearsall restores the shock, drama and world-altering flux of 1776, revealing how the fires of change that sparked the American Revolution were igniting all around the world. From St. Kitts to Kolkata, Ghana to Guangzhou, all kinds of people, not just the men declaring independence in Philadelphia, asserted their rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
As we approach the 250th anniversary of the Revolution, Freedom Round the Globe tells a story the world needs to hear, of the fraught origins of a nation that by turns perplexes, fascinates and horrifies us. It is a story of global transformation and revolutionary fervour, of triumph as well as tragedy, and of the insurgents, lovers, and dreamers who dared to imagine better societies.
Road Captain
A rare insight into the heart of pro cycling and the inner workings of the peloton, from Team Sky and Ineos Grenadiers legend, Luke Rowe.
There's one well-established truth in professional cycling: the strongest always wins. Yet in a sport of champions, victory is only possible as a team. At the heart of that team effort, that unity, is the road captain.

Featuring exhilarating stories from his years at Team Sky and Ineos Grenadiers - where he played a fundamental role in the team's dominance at the Tour de France, leading Chris Froome, Geraint Thomas and Egan Bernal to their Tour victories - Luke shows what it's like to manage a road race unfolding at 60km/h. As he points out, it is 'like playing chess on wheels'.

ARE YOU SOMEBODY?
Upon its original publication in 1996, Are You Somebody? quickly became an cultural sensation in Ireland, sparking an ‘emotional episode in public life in Ireland’. O’Faolain’s striking candour and focus on the long-silenced experiences of Irish women helped the book become an international bestseller. Are You Somebody? is an extraordinary memoir that explores identity, love and the search for meaning in a changing Ireland.

This is more than a memoir; it’s a conversation about what it means to live fully, to question deeply and to embrace vulnerability.
Through the Lens of Anthroposophy
What relevance do anthroposophy and the teachings of Rudolf Steiner have for the world today? Spiritual thinker Wolfgang Müller was initially sceptical that anthroposophy had any contemporary value. It wasn't until many years after his first encounter with the challenging and sometimes controversial worldview that a closer study of Steiner's writings prompted him to make a radical reappraisal. In this thought-provoking book, Müller explains how anthroposophy, far from being out of touch with the modern world, has important contributions to make towards our understanding of contemporary life. He shows, for example, how anthroposophy builds on the insights of natural science to explore the inner life of human beings, and how its progressive view of human spiritual development can help us better understand the world's religions. He looks at anthroposophy's approach to medicine, which takes into account both the physical and spiritual aspects of human beings, and goes on to consider Steiner's social and political ideas, which seek to bring our public spheres of culture, politics and economics into greater balance. Finally, Müller explores accusations of racism that have been made against Steiner in recent years and shows how they are fundamentally at odds with Steiner's view of a truly universal humanity. This book offers a balanced and well-researched contemporary perspective on anthroposophy from a former sceptic and will be of value to anyone looking for alternative ways of understanding our world.

Travels and Natural History Around the World
Anthony Roberts started travelling soon after he was born. He had his first six birthdays in different counties in England and Scotland as his father was in the Royal Air Force during the Second World War. And then came a very difficult period when after TB and his parents’ divorce he returned to Essex with almost no family income. Living on the edge of Epping Forest from the age of eight an interest in the birds, bees and trees became apparent – and continued throughout his life. Foreign travel started with annual visits to Europe with his local Scouts and then with a scholarship to Paris to study French. And then with other scholarships real travel started with a visit to Arctic Lapland with the British Schools Exploring Society when he finished school. This was the first of more than twenty expeditions to thirteen countries, mainly as the doctor and scientist, during his long life. Travel also developed with sport, with study, with work and finally with the joy of travelling and seeing the geography and the people in countries around the world – often decades apart. And always noticing and recording the natural history seen. He has spent more than eight years of his life overseas in 119 countries on seven continents and has spent more than a year under canvas as well as some interesting situations in Sarajevo during their War and also in Azerbaijan, Haiti and Kosovo. And then came Covid and that was the reason that his memoirs were written. He has had a fascinating life which still continues.

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.

Miss Clare Hartill, teacher at a girls' boarding school, has a bewitching ability to get her own way, whether it is among the staff or the pupils who'll do anything to please her. When nineteen-year-old Alwynne Durand is hired, Clare takes this innocent and enthusiastic but undisciplined young teacher under her wing.

But when tragedy touches the school, Alwynne begins to question Clare's attentions. Sometimes, she thinks, her new friend can be cruel.
Torn between a Clare she loves and a Clare she fears, Alwynne must decide between loyalty and independence - before Clare chooses for her . . .
Some Men In London: Queer Life, 1945-1959
The first part of a major new anthology which uncovers the rich reality of life for queer men in London
In the 1940s, it was believed that homosexuality had been becoming more widespread in the aftermath of war. A moral panic ensued, centred around London as the place to which gay men gravitated.
In a major new anthology, Peter Parker explores what it was actually like for queer men in London in this period, whether they were well-known figures such as John Gielgud, 'Chips' Channon and E.M. Forster, or living lives of quiet - or occasionally rowdy - anonymity in pubs, clubs, more public places of assignation, or at home. It is rich with letters, diaries, psychological textbooks, novels, films, plays and police records, covering a wide range of viewpoints, from those who deplored homosexuality to those who campaigned for its decriminalisation.
This first volume, from 1945 to 1959, details a community forced to live at constant risk of blackmail or prison. Yet it also shows a thriving and joyous subculture, one that enriched a mainstream culture often ignorant of its debt to gay creators. Some Men In London is a testament to queer life, which was always much more complex than newspapers, governments and the Metropolitan Police Force imagined.
