Aid State
Haiti is a nation near-collapse: criminal gangs have overrun the country, nearly all government officials have fled after the 2021 assassination of President Moise, refugees desperately set out on boats to reach the United States and Latin America, and the economy reels from the cascading after-effects of natural disasters that destroyed much of Haiti’s infrastructure. How did this happen? How did a nation founded on liberation - a people that revolted against their colonizers and enslavers - come to such rui? n Aid State, journalist and Haiti expert Jake Johnston reveals how longstanding United States and European capitalist goals ensnared and re-enslaved Haiti under the guise of helping it. To the global West, Haiti is and always has been “open for business”: a place where labor is cheap, politicians are compliant, and profits are to be made. Over the course of nearly 100 years, the United States has sought to control Haiti and its people with occupying police, military, and 'peacekeeping' forces, as well as hand-picked leaders, meant to quell uprisings and protect corporate interests. Earthquakes and hurricanes only further devastated a nation left helpless by the aid industrial complex. Based on years of on-the-ground reporting in Haiti, Jake Johnston’s Aid State is a compelling, conscience searing book of witness.

Rose/House
A taut, uncanny sci-fi thriller where AI meets The Haunting of Hill House, from Arkady Martine, Hugo Award-winning author of A Memory Called Empire. ‘Exquisitely creepy’ – Adrian Tchaikovsky, Hugo Award-winning author of the Children of Time series‘I’m a piece of architecture, Detective. How should I know how humans are like to die?’Architect Basit Deniau’s houses were haunted to begin with. A house embedded with an artificial intelligence is a common thing; a house that is an artificial intelligence, infused in every load-bearing beam and fine marble tile with a thinking creature that is not human? That is something else altogether. But now Deniau’s been dead a year, and his masterpiece, Rose House, is locked up tight. Dr Selene Gisil, a former protégé, is the sole person permitted, once a year, to enter Rose House. But now, there is a dead person inside. It is not Deniau, and Rose House refuses to speak. Dr Gisil can enter, but she wasn't there when Rose House called in the death. Yet someone was. Someone died. And someone, or something, may be there still . . . ‘A sharp, clever blend of science fictional gothic and crime’ – The Guardian

The Sound of Feathers
From the rustle of a crow’s wings to the cool touch of moss on a stone wall, to the quiet determination of a worm crossing a sidewalk, The Sound of Feathers invites readers to notice the small wonders of life all around them. These fleeting details hold surprising truths about humanity’s connection to nature, the complex relationships of care and harm in which we are entangled, our responsibilities to other species, and what it means to be fully present in the world. Through vivid storytelling and deeply personal reflections, Kathryn Gillespie invites us to slow down, pay attention, and think differently about our everyday lives so that we might imagine shared futures of flourishing. She urges us to confront the forces that separate us from the natural world and find more compassionate ways of living in harmony with it. Gillespie reminds us that the quiet, often overlooked moments in life are where the most profound insights and connections begin.

Presumed Guilty
‘A superb, sexy sequel to Presumed Innocent’ Sunday Times‘A legend of suspense fiction’ Steve Cavanagh‘The master of the courtroom drama’ Daniel Silva‘A writer with few peers in any genre’ David BaldacciDaily Mail Books to Watch 2025The Times Best Thrillers of 2025 So FarIn a sequel to Presumed Innocent, the book that redefined the legal thriller, judge and lawyer Rusty Sabich returns to the courtroom to defend his step-son against a racially-charged murder indictment as the boy’s life – and perhaps Rusty’s last chance at happiness – hang in the balance. Rusty is a retired judge attempting a third act in life with a loving soon-to-be wife, Bea, with whom he shares both a restful home on an idyllic lake in the rural Midwest and a plaintive hope that this marriage will be his best, and his last. But the peace that’s taken Rusty so long to find evaporates when Bea’s young adult son, Aaron, living under their supervision while on probation for drug possession, disappears. If Aaron doesn’t return soon, he will be sent back to jail. Aaron eventually turns up with a vague story about a camping trip with his troubled girlfriend, Mae, that ended in a fight and a long hitchhike home. Days later, when she still hasn’t returned, suspicion falls on Aaron, and when Mae is subsequently discovered dead, Aaron is arrested and set for trial on charges of first degree murder. Faced with few choices and even fewer hopes, Bea begs Rusty to return to court one last time, to defend her son and to save their last best hope for happiness. For Rusty, the question is not whether to defend Aaron, or whether the boy is in fact innocent – it’s whether the system to which he has devoted his life can ever provide true justice for those who are presumed guilty. 5* READER REVIEWS'Absolutely brilliant''Scott Turow at his very best''A great legal thriller ...

Svet sa rozpadá
V románe Svet sa rozpadá Chinuu Achebeho ide o klasické rozprávanie o kataklizmatickom stretnutí Afriky s Európou, ktorá na kontinente vytvára koloniálnu prítomnosť.
Prostredníctvom fiktívnych zážitkov Okonkwa, bohatého a nebojácneho igbského bojovníka z Umuofie na konci 19. storočia, skúma márny odpor jedného muža voči znehodnocovaniu jeho igbských tradícií britskými politickými a náboženskými silami a jeho zúfalstvo, keď jeho komunita kapituluje pred novým mocenským poriadkom.
Svet sa rozpadá je jedným z najosvetľujúcejších a najtrvalejších pamätníkov africkej skúsenosti. Achebe nielenže zachytáva život v predkoloniálnej africkej dedine, ale sprostredkúva tragédiu straty tohto sveta a zároveň rozširuje naše chápanie súčasnej reality.
„Skutočná klasika svetovej literatúry... Majstrovské dielo, ktoré inšpirovalo generácie spisovateľov v Nigérii, v Afrike a na celom svete.“ Barack Obama

Tank T-34, 2. upravené vydání
Vývoj a výroba, parametry všech verzí, nasazení v boji, poválečné využití
Kompletní příběh a podrobná anatomie tanku T-34 od roku 1940 až do současnosti.
Když se sovětský T-34 v roce 1940 objevil na bojišti, šlo bezpochyby o nejpokročilejší střední tank na světě. Se svým skloněným pancířem, širokými pásy a účinnou výzbrojí způsobil Němcům doslova šok. I když v prvních fázích války ztratili sověti většinu nasazených T-34, byly to právě přelomový design a neustávající masová výroba tohoto stroje, které převážily misky vah na celé východní frontě. Když se postupem času stal 76mm kanon zastaralým a nestačil na tigery a panthery, přišel model T-34/85, který prokazoval svoji efektivitu až do samotného konce druhé světové války a v různých konfliktech po celém světě i dlouho po ní – některé kusy tohoto legendárného obrněnce jsou stále k vidění v lokálních bojích.
Z obsahu:
*Úspěchy na bojišti: Od problémů v době německého blitzkriegu po drtivé vítězství při dobývání Říše.
*Anatomie T-34: Podrobný pohled na konstrukci, motor, podvozek, výzbroj i pracoviště osádky.
*Více než tank: Na podvozku T-34 vzniklo také několik dalších úspěšných strojů.
*Všechny modely: Včetně licenční výroby mimo SSSR.
