Rudé město
Alchymie je skryté umění proměny. V Angel City ji dva soupeřící zločinecké syndikáty prodávají ve formě drogy, která lidem dá vše, co si přejí: krásu, intelekt, charisma. Město tak balancuje na hraně mezi luxusem a zločinem, zdvořilými dohodami a krvavou válkou. Sam sní o úniku z chudoby a je ochotná riskovat cokoli, aby se dostala mezi členy Grand Central. Ari, vychovaný Lumines, je jejich největší zbraní. Kdysi se milovali, teď stojí na opačných stranách konfliktu – a ten může zničit město i je samotné.

Na nepřátelském území
Carole se už v dospívání odvrací od katolického domova a hledá vlastní cestu. Na umělecké škole potkává charismatického Stéphana, jenž ji okouzlí – netuší však, že jejich vztah nikdy neskončí. Zatímco ona dospívá, on propadá únikům, hněvu a nakonec i manosféře a krajní pravici. Minimalistická kresba citlivě zachycuje izolaci, manipulaci a tichý rozklad lásky v mrazivém, přesto dojemném příběhu o skrytých formách mužské nadvlády.

Nebezpečné hry staré Jeremiášky
Tajemná kniha kouzel staré Jeremiášky se měla ztratit navždy. Jenže minulost se vrací – a s ní i nebezpečné hry, které mohou skončit tragicky. Když se objeví kluk jménem Milda s naléhavou prosbou o pomoc, začíná hon, v němž nechybí napětí, odvaha ani přátelství. Kdo je pouhou figurkou a kdo skutečným hráčem? Dokoná Bratrstvo kočičí pracky svou pomstu? A dokážou Rychlé šípy zastavit záhadnou sektu dřív, než bude pozdě?

Nyaralóvendégek
A kémek partja című kötetben megismert egykori CIíügynökök újra bevetésen!
A Martini Klub, azaz Maggie Bird „könyvklubja” egészen különleges, hiszen a tagjai egykori kémek, akik inkognitójukat megőrizve élik békés nyugdíjas éveiket a tengerparti Purity városában. Erre a nyárra sincs más tervük, mint hogy martinit kortyolgatva olvasgassanak, és a helyi madárvilágban gyönyörködjenek.
Ám a kisvárost elözönlik a nyaralóvendégek, és Jo Thibodeau rendőrfőnöknek gyakran meggyűlik a baja a turistákkal: zsúfolásig telt utcák, bárverekedések, apró lopások. Ráadásként pedig egy tinédzser nyomtalanul eltűnik a tó partján… Amikor Maggie jó barátja és szomszédja lesz az első számú gyanúsított, a Martini Klub tagjai kénytelenek újra félretenni a koktéljaikat, hogy belevessék magukat az ügybe.
Tess Gerritsen ebben a kiválóan felépített és fordulatos regényben mesterien ötvözi a családi drámát a kémthriller izgalmával. A Martini Klub szerethető karakterei pedig ezúttal is elemükben vannak, és semmi sem tarthatja vissza őket attól, hogy kiderítsék az igazságot.
Hope I Get Old Before I Die
From the author of Abbey Road comes the story of how enduring rock icons like Pink Floyd, Bruce Springsteen and many more have remained in the ever changing music game.
When Paul McCartney closed Live Aid in July 1985 at the grand old age of forty-three, we thought he was on the road to retirement. But as it turns out, he - and many others of his generation - were just getting started.
In the last four decades, the big names of the 60s and 70s have been exploiting the age of spectacle that Live Aid created to enjoy the longest lap of honour in the history of humanity, carrying on long after everyone else had given up.
In this brave new world, Elton John plays a royal funeral, Mick Jagger gets a knighthood, Bob Dylan picks up the Nobel Prize, the Beatles become, if anything, bigger than the Beatles and it's beginning to look as though, thanks to technology, they will all be playing Las Vegas forever.
Gizmo
We live in a world where many aspects of late twentieth century science fiction have become technological reality. As gadgets and technology in general have become more miniaturised, sleek and capable, so too has an appetite for the sort of quirky, retro tech that wistfully reminds us of earlier times. Nintendo has enjoyed great success with the re-release of their console systems from the 1980s, and US brand Analogue has created a hardware emulator for Sega's classic Mega Drive games. Audio formats such as vinyl records and cassettes have seen a resurgence, along with the devices that can play them.
This book sets out to provide a comprehensive survey of electronic and time-saving gadgets and devices, their evolution and genealogy, revealing where they come from, and how they are developed. In charting the diverse spectrum of gizmos by type and purpose, it uncovers the sometimes unexpected connections between them. Finally, we discover how these technologies have become the nexus of our interaction with each other and the world around us, shaping creativity and culture, storing memories, helping, guiding and, increasingly, thinking for us.

Hadovo dílo
V postapokalyptické Paříži zničené tajemným Přívalem se lidstvo snaží z trosek znovu vybudovat svět. Mezi přeživšími jsou lidé se zvláštní schopností číst v chaosu každodennosti jedinečná znamení, zvané synchronicity. Nejnadanější z nich, takzvaní Pythoni, pracují jako elitní lovci zločinců pro novou policii. Nathaniel Loppe, kdysi legendární Lovec, se po osobní tragédii stáhl do ústraní. Když se objeví sériový vrah, který je sám Python a nenechává po sobě žádnou stopu, vrací se Nathaniel na naléhání mladšího, nejistého a nedávným rozchodem rozervaného kolegy zpět do akce. Napínavé pátrání po vrahovi se prolíná s tématy náhody a osudu, synchronicit, kvantové nejistoty a paralelních světů. Hadovo dílo je temný, atmosférický román o touze po pomstě a křehkosti civilizace. Norman Jangot nabízí neklidný, „nezařaditelný“ příběh, který propojuje žánrovou zábavu s vizionářskou reflexí současného světa.
Csontot csontért
Ha meg akarja védeni Lucien d’Malvane szívét, Zera kénytelen elárulni a herceget, aki azonban csalódott benne, és látni sem bírja a lányt. Zera a király foglyaként csapdába esett Cavanosban, és várja az elkerülhetetlen pillanatot, amikor boszorkánya megszakítja a köztük lévő mágikus kapcsolatot, és ezzel véget vet az életének.
Azonban a története még nem zárulhat le. A szabadság a legvalószínűtlenebb helyről érkezik. Zera kap egy második esélyt a Szívetlen Szolga létre. Ennek azonban szörnyű ára van. Miközben a király mozgósítja seregét, hogy a boszorkányok ellen vonuljon, Zera csak azzal a feltétellel kaphatja vissza emberi mivoltát, ha megszelídít egy elérhetetlen, halálos veszedelmet jelentő valkeraxot, aki a város alatti alagutakban rekedt. Összebarátkozni egy vérszomjas valkeraxszal? Nehéz. Visszanyerni a barátait, mielőtt kitör a háború? Még nehezebb. Az, hogy egy Szívetlen Szolga visszanyerje Lucien herceg szívét? A legnehezebb.
Magasan a nyeregben
Ginger és Cole eltöltenek egy vad hétvégét Las Vegasban, és miután túl sokat ittak, egy neonokkal kivilágított kápolnában találják magukat. Miután hazaérnek, megállapodnak: egy darabig titokban tartják a házasságot.
Egyre több időt kényszerülnek egymás társaságában tölteni. Szikrák lobbannak, a véletlen házasság kezd veszélyesen valódinak érződni.
Apránként megfeledkeznek arról, hogy eredetileg csak színlelték a dolgot, és lassanként Cole is megérti, hogy a Felelsz vagy mersz?-ben mindig a mersz a helyes válasz.
Ruby, a legkisebb
Miután a hurrikán elpusztította az állatkertet, ahol Ruby és barátai éltek, az állatokat egy vadvédelmi parkba költöztették. A kis elefánt boldog itt, de örömét beárnyékolja valami. Közeleg az agyarnap, amikor megünneplik, hogy kibukkantak az agyarai, felnőtt. Mindenki izgatottan várja a nagy eseményt, kivéve Rubyt. Rengeteg érzés kavarog benne, és nem tud rendet tenni közöttük. Miközben próbálja megúszni a közelgő ünnepséget, meglátogatja Jabori, aki az afrikai elefántházban nevelte őt, még egészen pici korában.
A férfival való találkozás Rubynak a vadaspark és a cirkusz előtti életének egyszerre örömteli és szomorú emlékeit idézi fel, így mesélni kezd Ivannak és Bobnak az afrikai szavannán töltött időkről. Mindeközben pedig rájön, a felnőtté válás nem is igazán az agyarakhoz kapcsolódik, hogy a csorda valójában nem létszámfüggő, hanem szeretetből és a barátság erejéből áll össze, és hogy sokkal bátrabb, mint ahogy azt hitte. Ha pedig ez idáig sohasem menekült, hát most sem fog.
