Building an Air Force
Until the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour, America did not want war, with the 1930s marked by strong isolationism and an emphasis on defense. However, in December 1941, it wasn't defensive aircraft the Army Air Corps had been steadily procuring, but offensive long-range heavy bombers, whilst US pursuit planes were decidedly inferior to their European counterparts. In this new history of the development of American air power, Phillip Meilinger dispels the notion that young air zealots pushed for a bomber-heavy force, revealing instead the technological, economic and bureaucratic forces which shaped the air force. He examines the role of scientists and engineers, developments in commercial aviation, and conflicting priorities of the Army and Air Corps, as well as how these were in turn influenced by America's political leaders. Building an Air Force is essential for understanding a conflict in which whoever controlled the skies controlled the land and seas beneath.

Thorn Season
ONLY THE SHARPEST WILL SURVIVE
"Court is filled with charming vipers," I said, chin lifted.
"But charming or not, we are vipers all the same."
In the Kingdom of Daradon, a persecuted few are Wielders - able to exert a physical power that extends beyond their visible body: a shimmering tendril that can pick a lock, a gentle coil that reaches out to give a loving caress, or an inexorable rope that will kill a man before he knows it is around his neck. Feared and mistrusted for this ability, Wielders have always been Hunted.
Alissa Paine - heiress of a noble lineage, daughter of a Hunter family - is also a Wielder. And as she approaches her eighteenth Season, Alissa knows she has escaped execution so far only through painful self-control, and the fragile efforts of her beloved father.
Summoned to the harsh and glittering royal court for the debutante season, Alissa finds herself trapped in a web of hidden intentions - and caught between two equally dangerous men. One is a brutal ruler with the handsome face of a fairytale prince, who would see her destroyed in an instant if the truth were known - and the other a beguiling foreign ambassador with secret agendas of his own.
It's Rose Season at the palace, but Alissa knows that survival will depend on being the most vicious of the thorns…
WIELD YOUR POWER. GUARD YOUR SECRET. SURVIVE THE HUNT.
Sharp, funny, sexy and dangerous, and packed full of irresistible twists, Thorn Season is an unforgettable novel that marks the introduction of a major new YA voice.

Na začátku, jak už to u příběhů bývá, byla exploze. Byt Luka Cage vylétl do povětří. A i když má „hrdina k pronajmutí“ kůži měkkou jako pancíř tanku, tenhle výbuch ho poslal do nemocnice a do kómatu. Ukazuje se, že útok byl pomstou za akci, kterou kdysi hrdinové (Spider-Man, Captain America, Wolverine, Daredevil a Luke Cage), provedli. Akci tak tajnou, že o ní nevědí ani oni sami. Kterou jim někdo vymazal z paměti. A právě teď si začínají vzpomínat. Tajná válka je především promyšlený špionážní thriller s perfektními dialogy Briana Michaela Bendise (Alias, Daredevil, Tajná invaze) a úžasnou kresbou skvělého Gabriela Dell´Otta (Amazing Spider-Man: Rodinný podnik).

Obsahuje sešity Tajná válka č. 1–5 a řadu bonusů zachycujících proces tvorby tohoto komiksu.

February, 1945. Eight months have passed since the D-Day landings, when the Allies gained their foothold in North-West Europe. Since then the British Army has fought near continuously against the German military. Now, they stand ready for their final test: the battle for the German homeland. Drawing on the sound archive of the Imperial War Museums and other personal accounts, military historian Geraint Jones brings this often-overlooked period of the war vividly to life in the words of British soldiers who were there, from war-weary men who have survived many months of combat to new recruits facing Hitler’s fanatics for the first time.

At the crossing of the Rhine we go into action with the commandos, and jump behind enemy lines with the Paras. We are taken into the horror of Belsen when the concentration camp is liberated, hear from the witnesses of the forgotten battles of April, and end the war deep in Germany, with victory in Europe. ‘Enthralling and enlightening . . .

Over a hundred years after she went missing, Isolde, born to the family of a famous Irish king and a powerful immortal, inexplicably reappears. Her mother's kin, the Descendants, are one of the two magical races of Ireland. But no Descendant can understand the reasons for Isolde's disappearance, and worse yet, she is giftless – born with no magical ability, a dangerous thing when the magic-rich Fomorians, ancient enemies of the Descendants, are growing in strength. The Fomorians no longer control any Irish kingdoms, but they still desire control over the mortal world. They seek to spread their dangerous webs wider by manipulating England’s Norman lords to invade Ireland. Not yet eighteen, Isolde's world is about to change for ever. But when death and destruction seem inevitable, her true worth will show itself, for Isolde is far more than she seems.
