The White Cat´s Divine Scratching Post, Vol. 2
THE CAT'S OUT OF THE BAG
Knowing that his beautiful master, Qingtong, is actually the spirit cat he pampered in his previous life, Mo Tianliao wants to get back to doting on his precious kitty! Oh, to be brushing his lovely hair, feeding him delicious treats, spoiling him all over again, and maybe even...a kiss or two? No? Claws to the face instead? Well, that's fine. After all, the most essential thing is healing the damage to Qingtong's divine soul, and that won't be as simple as providing tender loving care.
To help his master, Mo Tianliao needs an elixir made from the rare Jadefruit, which only grows on a single tree. A tree that just so happens to be the property of a rival cultivation sect, one that views spirit beasts like Qingtong as valuable commodities to be bought and sold.
With his unmatched mastery of artifacts and arrays, Mo Tianliao may be able to steal the priceless fruit with his skills alone. But, as they infiltrate the Liuyun Sect, he and Qingtong risk revealing their own sect's greatest secret: that all its highest-ranked cultivators are actually spirit beasts in human form!

Birds Up Close
A renowned engineer and ornithologist reveals the marvel of how birds work from the tips of their beaks to the sheen of their tailfeathers. With over 150 full-color illustrations, a unique gift book for everyone from the avid birder to the bird beginner. Consider feathers: They define birds wings, enabling flight. They insulate against cold. They repel water. They even control sound. And how feathers work is just one aspect of the wonders of birds explained by pathbreaking researcher and lifelong birder Lorna Gibson in Birds Up Close. Feathers, bones, bills, eggs, flight: all come in for scrutiny in this engaging book. What produces the iridescence of plumage? How does the internal structure of a bird s bones make them lightweight? How do different birds use their bills and tongues from woodpeckers penetrating the holes they drill to hummingbirds imbibing nectar, to sandpipers needling the sand, and to phalaropes drawing water droplets containing plankton into their mouths without sucking (no lips!)? Drawing on her expertise and personal experience in both engineering and ornithology, the author explores the hidden microscopic structures and engineering principles that keep birds aloft and alive how an egg is formed, how a bird generates lift; how raptors soar and glide, albatrosses fly thousands of miles, hummingbirds hover, puffins and penguins fly underwater. She also considers the longer view of birds in their habitats and natural history. Her up-close look at avian mysteries provides a perspective like no other for the expert ornithologist and curious observer alike.
The Pretenders
Three couples. Two exes. One day of reckoning. Jasper’s brother Edmund has never been exciting, but he is reliable and always there for his little brother, no matter what. It’s only natural that the day after their engagement, Jasper and bride-to-be Holly decide to surprise Edmund with a celebratory visit. John, Jasper’s fun loving and devoted best friend, comes along. Of course he wouldn’t think of missing such an occasion. Anne joins them, because she’s John’s wife and Jasper is a huge part of her life. Edmund and Ovidia aren’t expecting visitors, but they can’t exactly say no when Jasper and the others walk into their London mansion one Saturday morning in spring. Ovidia is not supposed to be there. Perhaps Edmund is not as reliable as Jasper believed. Maybe John doesn’t know everything about his best friend. Today they will all have to face the consequences of the lies they’ve told themselves.
The Prison Project
As a young, novice dance teacher, Aimee Friel’s first full-time job took an unexpected turn when she was asked to teach regular dance classes for young offenders at a Scottish prison. Many of her students were her own age, but their worlds couldn’t have been more different. Thrown into chaotic classes filled with cringeworthy chat-up lines, cheeky Glaswegian banter, and hilarious dad-dancing, Aimee embarked on a journey of growth alongside the young men in her classes. She faced challenges including impromptu drum sessions, a stolen safety alarm and the harsh realities of trauma, toxic masculinity and stigma. As trust built, so did transformation. Through comedic tea breaks, some difficult conversations and unexpected choreography, Aimee was drawn to the deeper roots of incarceration – from adverse childhood experiences to homelessness and substance misuse. Interwoven with personal reflection, including her own family’s struggle with addiction and trauma, The Prison Project challenges perceptions and asks what it really takes to make a difference in the lives of young people.

The Lost Art of the Oracle
The Oura people once lived in harmony with the Forest, guided by the Oracle – the keeper of ancient wisdom. But now the Forest is dying, its magic fading under unseen, corrosive forces. Poppy and her family are the only Oura people left in the Forest, and Poppy has grown up never knowing that the Oura ancient knowledge existed. Then a near-fatal fall awakens a spark of that ancient power within her. As she heals, she discovers a gift for intuition and a courage she never knew she had. When she finds a lost Oura boy and takes him under her wing, hope blooms – the Oura people may still survive, and the Forest’s magic may yet be restored. Set in an endangered forest and filled with danger, mystery, and the timeless pull of nature’s wonders, The Lost Art of the Oracle is about finding your voice, trusting your instincts, and protecting the things worth saving. It is, above all, a call to cherish our natural world.
The Future in our Past
The Future in Our Past tells the story of the 1926 General Strike on its centenary. It is a compelling on-the-ground account of how workers brought the country to a standstill for nine extraordinary days. Callum Cant and Matthew Lee take us on a journey through a Britain living on its nerves, from the London docklands to the South Wales coalfields and the railways and warehouses of middle England. Churchill feared that labour militancy presaged a Bolshevik-style revolution. The question of power hung in the air as rank-and-file militants pursued a chaotic, improvised and wildly uneven confrontation with the British ruling class. This is social history at its most immediate and relevant. Cant and Lee revisit the communities where the struggle burned brightest, uncovering the lessons the General Strike holds for labour movements today.
The Mineral Reset
From the co-founder and CEO of BEAM Minerals, a guide to the importance of mineral replenishment for optimal health and how to restore the minerals your body needs to function at its best. Minerals are the substrate of literally everything in the galaxy, even the universe. They are the building blocks and fuel, for all cellular life. Without minerals life would cease to exist and in fact, our own bodies would stop functioning, within hours. It’s amazing that the most basic understanding of something so fundamental to life is not taught, or even thought much about by even the most educated doctors and practitioners. You wouldn’t own a car if you didn’t know the basics of how to fill up the gas tank, or what to fill it with. But here we are, living in our bodies daily, mostly unaware that we have no idea how our body’s energy systems work and how to replenish them effectively. So, we struggle, with weight, inflammation, sleep, cravings, brain fog, low energy and a general feeling that “something is missing”. There is something missing: minerals! Minerals, and how they contribute to health, is widely misunderstood, resulting in misinformation and products that confuse people and ultimately cause more problems than they solve. Understanding some simple facts about how minerals operate in the body and how a person can easily and effectively replenish their body’s mineral stores, can be a game changer for anyone experiencing chronic issues related to physical, mental, emotional and energetic health. This book is about the human body as a holistic ecosystem made of cells and an introduction into minerals as a cornerstone of cellular ecosystem health. Told through story, metaphors, visual descriptions and simple language, this book makes a complex subject accessible. This book is written for anyone who recognizes in themselves that hidden hunger (that sense that something is missing), or seeks answers to why they are struggling to thrive.
Dcera
Toxické dětství ji naučilo pochybovat o vlastním úsudku – a on toho dokonale využil. Láska se změnila v kontrolu, jistota ve strach a realita v jeho verzi pravdy. Když se pak kruh násilí uzavírá, Klára zjistí, že jediná cesta ven vede skrz temnotu.
Z louže pod okap – tak by se dal charakterizovat start příběhu, volně navazujícího na psychologický thriller MATKA. Hlavní hrdinka Klára, která v minulosti zažila opravdové peklo, teď touží po lásce a rodinném přístavu. Podlehne charismatickému Štěpánovi a velmi rychle s ním otěhotní, bohužel však záhy zjistí, že muž, do kterého se zamilovala, má dvě tváře. Dostává se do kolotoče domácího násilí, které začíná velmi nenápadně, ale o to drtivější má dopady. Klára neví, jak z toho ven – nemá prostředky, zázemí ani přátele, o které by se mohla opřít. Jejím jediným blízkým člověkem je narcistický manipulátor Štěpán. Když ovšem za dramatických okolností přichází o nenarozené miminko, celý její život nabere nové obrátky. Mladá žena se rozhodne pomstít nejen smrt očekávané dcerušky, ale vyřídit si účty se všemi, kdo jí v minulých letech ublížili - včetně své matky. Rozbíhá se thrillerový kolotoč událostí s krvelačným potenciálem, který může pro nejednoho aktéra skončit tragicky. Klára však nevidí, že se skrze své plány dostává na hranu zákona. Hodlá za sebou nechat zkázu a možná i smrt...

Manchester must dance
From Manchester’s backstreets to global dancefloors – the untold story of a musical pioneer. Beginning on the night in November 1963 when his mum took him to see the Beatles live at Manchester’s ABC Cinema, Mike Pickering takes the reader through sixty years of clubs, clothes, gigs, record labels, football matches and politics. Pickering has lived through decades of rapid change in popular music. As an influential DJ he introduced house music into the legendary Haçienda. He signed Happy Mondays and James to Factory Records before working with Kasabian, Gossip and Calvin Harris at Sony. His Mercury Prize-winning, multi-million-selling group M People transformed the music industry's attitude to dance music. As he tells his remarkable story he introduces an array of friends and collaborators, many of whom would become important – and sometimes notorious – figures in music history. Manchester must dance is a revelatory insider’s account that moves from the cramped back streets of 1950s north Manchester on a journey deep into music, the city and the wider world. It features forewords from some of those Pickering inspired: Martin Fry, Johnny Marr, Noel Gallagher and Calvin Harris. -- .

Soldiers of Christ
In a land torn by crusade and rebellion, honour is earned in blood. 1205. Richard Fitz Simon has fled England after his title was usurped, joining the Livonian Order of Swordbrothers – a German brotherhood of warrior-monks fighting to bring the word of God to the pagan frontier. After slaying the Lithuanian champion at the Battle of Rodenpois, Richard is celebrated by the Order and their Semigallian allies. Yet his position remains precarious. Jealous rivals question his right to stand among the brotherhood, and his master, Knight-brother Rudolf, is enraged by Richard’s disobedience. When dark secrets from Lübeck resurface, Richard also finds himself at odds with Bishop Albert, head of the Christian mission in Livonia. As he struggles to reconcile faith, duty and identity, he is drawn into a brutal world of suspicion, hardship and bloodshed. Sent on an expedition to build a castle deep in the wilderness, Richard soon sees tensions erupt – and the path he has chosen threatens to destroy everything he has fought to become.
