Alfa Romeo 105 Series Spider
The Alfa Romeo 105 series Spider is one of the most admired drop-head sports cars to come out of Italy. Launched in 1966, its radical new look was not immediately welcomed. As prospective buyers gradually warmed to the model, enhancements were introduced including more powerful engines and higher-spec body and interior fittings. Despite its inauspicious start, production of this much-admired car lasted for twenty-seven years, finally stopping in 1993. Jim Talbott and Andrew Brown pay homage to the 105/115 series Alfa Spider. With over 330 photographs, many specially commissioned, this new book describes the Alfa Romeo company history including its philosophy of incorporating driver appeal into all of its products, resulting in some of the most desirable vehicles of their age; it details the evolution of the 105/115 series through four distinct body styles; lists the technical design specifications and every major version of the Spider and finally, discusses the issues and challenges of finding and owning a classic Spider.

There she finds herself at the mercy of Queen Valrún, and is forced to aid in the queen’s quest to claim all the magic long thought irrevocably bound to the gods.

Together, amid secrets, magic, and betrayal, they must challenge the power-hungry queen to a battle that could ruin the world or remake it. For Brynja and Ballast, their most invaluable weapon is hope.

The Odyssey: A Graphic Novel: Deluxe Edition
With bold imagery and an ear tuned to the music of Homer’s epic poem, award-winning graphic artist Gareth Hinds reinterprets the ancient classic as it’s never been told before. A New York Times bestseller, now in a sumptuous collectible edition with new cover design, gold foil, and painted edges.
“Gareth Hinds brings The Odyssey to life in a masterful blend of art and storytelling. Vivid and exciting, this graphic novel is a worthy new interpretation of Homer’s epic.” —Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series
Fresh from his triumphs in the Trojan War, Odysseus, king of Ithaca, wants nothing more than to return home to his family. Instead, he offends the sea god, Poseidon, who dooms him to years of shipwreck and wandering. Battling man-eating monsters, violent storms, and the supernatural seductions of sirens and sorceresses, Odysseus will need all his strength and cunning—and a little help from Mount Olympus—to make his way home and seize his kingdom from the schemers who seek to wed his queen and usurp his throne. Gareth Hinds masterfully reinterprets a story of heroism, adventure, and high action that has been told and retold for more than 2,500 years—though never quite like this.

Unemployed and all out of options, she buys a one-way bus ticket to the dead-end town she grew up in. Time stands still there all the same people still telling the same old gossip she s been running from for ages. Back in her childhood home, she needs to find a way to save the house from foreclosure, care for her ailing grandfather, and make peace with her mother s ghost, whose telephone calls still come in on the old kitchen landline. With the odds stacked against her, Mary Pain doesn t let her mid-life rut keep her down: She picks up men for midnight trysts in the park, and remains open to deepening connections with childhood friends, new lovers, and precocious altar boys.

How Not to Be Human
Current debates in the environmental humanities, animal studies, and related fields increasingly revolve around this question: What to do with “the human”? Is the human a category worth preserving? Should it be replaced with the post-human? Should marginalized and minoritarian groups advocate for a universal humanism? What is the relationship between humanism and anthropocentrism? Is a genuinely non-anthropocentric mode of thinking and living possible for human beings? This book argues that the writings of twentieth-century poet Robinson Jeffers offer twenty-first-century readers a number of crucial insights concerning such questions and timely advice about how not to be human. For Jeffers, our tendency to turn inward on ourselves and to indulge in human narcissism is at the heart of the social, economic, and existential ills that plague modern societies. As a remedy, Jeffers recommends turning ourselves outward—beyond the self and beyond the human—and learning to affirm and even love the inhuman cosmos in all of its terrible beauty. In the process, Jeffers helps us find our way back to ourselves, but this time no longer as “human” in the traditional sense but as plain members of the inhuman world.
More Meditations of a Militant Moderate
The book collects almost thirty-five opinion pieces, essays, and two poems by the author on a wide variety of public policy topics written and published between 2006 and 2022. The author, a self-described “militant moderate,” draws on his participation in many public debates. The articles are grouped into six, topical groupings that range widely: the growing need for moderate voices in policy debates; the nature of American exceptionalism; the challenge of civic discourse; the depredations of the Trump’s first term; and policies concerning immigration, citizenship, and refugees.
The Drowning Season
To find two missing women, a detective must dive into the secrets of her past in a blood-freezing novel of suspense by USA Today bestselling author Debra Webb. Detective Adeline Cooper swore she’d never return to Mississippi, where her corrupt family rules through fear and her career was upended by betrayal. But then she receives a photograph of a local woman who has gone missing, along with a cryptic, chilling message: Pretty, pretty princess. See her smile…see her die. Soon after Adeline arrives in her hometown, a second woman is kidnapped, and there are disturbing connections between the two victims and the detective. Both women bear an eerie resemblance to Adeline and share her fear of water. A new message makes the kidnapper’s game terrifyingly clear: You’re next. When past and present collide at the river’s edge, Adeline will finally understand why she’s been dreaming of drowning her whole life. Revised edition: Previously published as Anywhere She Runs, this edition of The Drowning Season includes editorial revisions.

Chováš se jak zvíře?
Když první vědci začali studovat chování zvířat, neodvažovali se u živočichů mluvit o přátelství. Jak však přibývalo výzkumů na zvířatech, vědecká komunita si uvědomila, že se od nás lidí zase tak moc neliší. Některé druhy zvířat také vytvářejí přátelství, která mohou trvat celý život. Zvířata spolu rádi tráví čas, pomáhají si, když to potřebují, a jsou smutní, když se jejich soukmenovcům stane něco zlého. Stejně jako my se starají o své blízké, protože i oni jsou schopni emocí.
Tato kniha představuje různé živočišné druhy, které jsou zajímavými příklady emočního života zvířat. Kniha se zabývá rodinným životem zvířat, péčí o mláďata, přátelstvím, jejich komunikací, vzájemným učením, pomáháním druhým, možností volby a schopností udělat vlastní rozhodnutí, mírumilovností a variabilitou.

Bronzová věž
TENHLE SEN BUDE VYKOUPENÝ KRVÍ NEVINNÝCH…
Mezi doutnajícími ruinami padlého impéria sílí šepot dávných mýtů o Krůpěji, poslední kapce padlého stvořitele, která slibuje neomezenou moc i poslední naději a která se ukrývá v bronzové věži ve vzdálené zemi za bezmezným Okeónem.
Redd, prospěchářský tulák a zlodějíček, má jen svůj plášť, omšelý meč – a spoustu vzpomínek na časy, které dávno minuly. V srdci si nese posedlost Krůpějí, kvůli které se hodlá vypravit za okraj Světa. A nemá problém obětovat cokoliv, aby dosáhl cíle, včetně vlastní duše.
Není však jediný, kdo po Krůpěji touží. V patách je mu jako stín tajuplný Maršál velící flotile zaokeónských fregat. A tyhle dva pojí víc než jen stejný cíl…
Ve Světě sílí frakce toužící využít Krůpěj ke znovunastolené pevné moci. Rozmáhají se staré hereze a ze stínů vylézají osudem prokletí Zářní… Jisté je jen jedno. Blíží se bouře apokalyptických rozměrů – a Redd ještě netuší, že bude stát přímo v jejím oku.
