Clown Town
The Instant Sunday Times Bestselling Thriller from the Author of Slow Horses.
MI5's First Desk, Diana Taverner, doesn't appreciate threats.
So when those involved in a covert operation during the height of the Troubles in Northern Ireland threaten to expose the ugly side of state security, Taverner goes on the offensive. And when that happens, people get hurt.
Over at Slough House, the repository for failed spies, the slow horses are hard at work: belittling each other, pushing paper, and marking time. Their boss, Jackson Lamb, wants them at their desks, but the slow horses are always looking for a way back on to Spook Street.
Meanwhile, another slow horse, River Cartwright, is waiting to be passed fit for work. At a loose end, and with his grandfather - a legendary former spy - long dead, River investigates the secrets of the old man's library, and a mysteriously missing book. What stories will it hold? And who wants those stories to stay silent?
After all, spies lie, they betray, it's what they do.

Deathly Fates
As a priestess paid to guide the deceased home, Kang Siying has never feared death. But when her father collapses due to his declining health, Siying realizes that even she is not free from the cruel grasp of mortality. Desperate to save her father, Siying accepts a dangerous job and travels through enemy territory to retrieve the corpse of a missing prince.
But the moment Siying places her talisman on the dead prince's head, the prince comes back to life. Worse, he won't stay alive for long -- not unless he absorbs enough qi, or life force, to keep his soul anchored to his body.
In return for a reward worth twice her original commission, Siying agrees to aid him in finding and purifying evil spirits for their qi. But as they journey across the countryside, encountering vengeful ghosts and enemy spies alike, they gradually uncover dark secrets about the prince's death -- secrets that could endanger both Siying's father and their entire kingdom.

The Age Code
From the rising incidence of cancer in the under-50s to increased infertility rates, there are signs everywhere that growing numbers of us are ageing too quickly. Why? Many believe there’s one major culprit: our diet.
Ageing reflects a fragile balance in our cells between damage and repair. Sugar, excess calories and gut inflammation are all common sources of damage, but if we instead fuel our body with valuable micronutrients, we can lower our disease risk and age markedly slower. Until recently this process was impossible to measure, but with new breakthroughs we can even assess the age of individual organs, giving rise to a new science of food that might save us.
Join Dr David Cox as he meets the experts attempting to understand what’s accelerating our biological clocks and what we can do about it. Along the way you’ll learn everything from why we become more acidic as we age, to why omega-3s are one of the most powerful anti-ageing supplements, to the simple adjustments to your cooking that will help you age better.
The Age Code urgently pinpoints why our eating habits must change and what we can all do to live longer and healthier lives.
A Biblia Éva, Judit és Mária Magdolna szerint
A Biblia történetei évszázadokon át formálták kultúránkat, mégis a magyarázatok és újramesélések gyakran háttérbe szorították a női szereplők hangját. Ez a kötet ezen változtat. A jól ismert eseményeket most Éva, Judit, Mária Magdolna és más bibliai nők mesélik el - saját szavaikkal, saját nézőpontjukból. A könyv érzékenyen és bátor frissességgel mutatja meg, miként élhették meg ők a teremtést, a hitet, a kísértést, a veszteséget és a reményt.
A mű nemcsak hiánypótló vállalkozás, hanem kifejezetten olvasmányos is: irodalmi igényességgel, mégis közérthetően közelít az ősi szövegekhez. Új fényt vet a legismertebb történetekre, miközben emberközelivé teszi a bibliai alakokat. Azok számára is élvezetes és befogadható olvasmány, akik kevésbé jártasak a Bibliában, hiszen a személyes hangvétel, az érzelmi mélység és a modern narráció hidat képez múlt és jelen között.
Ez a könyv egyszerre újraértelmezés és felfedezés: meghívás arra, hogy a Bibliát ne csak olvassuk, hanem meghalljuk benne azokat a hangokat is, amelyek túl sokáig maradtak csendben.

Sleeper Straddle
An original collection of interwoven short stories set in the Wild Cards universe, created by the globally bestselling author of A Game of Thrones 'A complex, intricately imagined universe' Telegraph An alien virus ravages the world, with effects as random as a hand of cards. Those infected either draw the black queen and die, draw an ace and receive superpowers, or draw the joker and are bizarrely mutated. Croyd Crenson is the Wild Cards' greatest failure, and its greatest success. Dubbed 'The Sleeper', he undergoes sporadic hibernations, after each one awakening with a new appearance and powers. Till now he's awoken in a singular body: but this time he finds himself split into six different incarnations, each with a unique look and ability. Recognizing this for the disaster that it is, one of the incarnations tasks Tesla – a joker with ace powers – to gather the remaining five versions before sleep claims them again and leaves Croyd permanently fractured. What follows is a journey through Croyd's long and colourful life, through the lens of some who have encountered the world's most unusual Wild Carder. And as Tesla will have to work fast, because not every Croyd is as amiable as the first incarnation, and they'll do whatever it takes to survive… Featuring stories from: Christopher Rowe, Carrie Vaughn, Cherie Priest, William F. Wu, Walter Jon Williams, Stephen Leigh, Mary Anne Mohanraj, and Max Gladstone.

M. Hallow, author of The Halls of the Dead Roy Dawnseve cares more for philosophy than battle. But, in a society that shuns literature in favour of their ongoing war, Roy must face a difficult choice: brave the front lines or investigate the identity of their foes in the Orphic Basilica, an ancient, abandoned library. When Roy chooses to unravel the mystery, it soon becomes clear that the Orphic Basilica isn’t without its own horrors. Strange voices echo down the halls, ghosts roam the bookshelves, and those who stepped foot in the library have either emerged insane or were driven to their own demise. Roy’s partner in the investigation is Percival Atherton, a manipulative, enigmatic and distractingly charming scholar who has no qualms about belittling Roy. As a fierce snowstorm isolates them from civilisation, Roy and Percival must grapple with their tormented pasts, an unexpected romance, and an age-old conspiracy whose secrets are certain to wipe Northgard from history. Filled with all the yearning of a rivals-to-lovers romance, the intrigue and fear of a dark academia, and the wonder and discovery of an epic fantasy, Honour & Heresy is ultimately a story of self-discovery amidst the chaos of war and a long, cold winter.

Irritated
'This book is an absolute joy. Easy to read, it takes you on a journey covering all the important angles. I will be recommending it to my patients who want to better understand their allergies.' Adam Fox OBE, professor of paediatric allergy and Chair of the National Allergy Strategy Do you live with a constantly runny nose, an itchy throat and sore eyes? Maybe you have eczema or get rashes from contact with allergens? Perhaps you or your children carry emergency adrenaline because an allergic reaction could be life-threatening? If so, you're definitely not alone: between a third and half of all UK adults will experience allergies at some point during their lifetime and the numbers are rising. We are more allergic now than we have been at any other time in history. * Peanut or tree nut allergy now runs at 1 in 70 children, versus 1 in 250 in 1997* Hospital admissions for anaphylaxis went up 174 per cent in the UK between 1998 and 2018* Around 21 million people have allergies in this country, but we have fewer than 80 adult and paediatric allergy specialist doctors * Children who grow up in deprived households are more likely to have allergies, asthma and eczema and for their symptoms to be severe* More than 80 per cent of people living with allergies say that it adversely affects their mental healthIrritated looks at why allergies have become so prevalent in recent years and asks whether there is anything we can do to stop more people developing them and help those who already have allergies to cope. Journalist Rebecca Seal writes about the difference between allergies and intolerances, the role of gut health and microbes in the development of allergies, how deprivation increases the risk of allergies and can make the experience of having them much worse, and offers practical strategies for managing both allergy symptoms and the anxiety which can come with them. Allergy is a complex and under-funded area of medicine, and there are few books out there to support families and adults living with allergies. This book provides the answers and information that people with allergies need, while making the science accessible and easy to understand.

Constructing Female Terrorism
News media reporting on female political violence invariably portrays the perpetrators as duped, naive and exploited, acting from personal rather than political motivations, as anomalous intruders in a masculine realm and de-feminized as monsters. By diminishing their agency, the challenge that women’s violence poses to the gendered national order is contained. Drawing on five comparative case studies spanning more than 70 years of militant campaigns against the UK and France, this book interrogates how media representations of politically violent women are shaped by gender, race, religion, class and geography. It considers how women’s political violence is framed, what influences these portrayals, and what ideological work they perform. In answering these questions, the book reveals how these representations operate as a battleground where the nation’s gendered boundaries are defined and defended, and the national order is reproduced.
