House of Blades
House of Blades is the first book in The Traveler's Gate Trilogy by Will Wight, the author of the New York Times bestselling Cradle series.

To top it off another young man from Simon's village discovers that he's a savior prophesied to destroy evil and save the realm. Prophecy has nothing to say about Simon. He has no special powers no magical weapons and no guarantee that he'll survive. But he sets off anyway alone to gain the power he needs to oppose the Travelers and topple their ruthless Overlord. It may not be his destiny but Simon's determined to rescue his fellow villagers from certain death. Because who cares about prophecy reall? eries DescriptionThe Traveler’s Gate Trilogy is the first work from Will Wight, the author of the New York Times bestselling Cradle series. The trilogy establishes his style of fast-paced, cinematic fantasy action, with an emphasis on colorful magic, humor, and progression. Traveler’s Gate follows a boy who isn't the chosen one but chooses to save the world regardless. He explores mystical realms, saves the innocent, gains new magical powers, and fights monsters with a giant sword. Think anime on the page, or video games without the numbers. For those who would love Cradle but who don't want to commit to a long twelve-book series, there's Traveler's Gate.
The Perfect Circle
In the round house on Via Saterna in Milan, its Palladian square exterior nothing but a trompe-l'oeil, the sun pierces through the central skylight. Its rays pass three floors unobstructed, before reaching the circle below at the heart of the house: four fingers of water filling a little silver basin. It is here that young Lidia dies, setting an end to her clandestine love affair with the ambitious architect. It is this house that real-estate agent Irene is asked to sell, decades later, as the climate catastrophe escalates, cloaking the divided city in a permanent orange haze. As she faces this new Milan, Irene throws herself into the impossible sale, getting to know Via Saterna intimately-this space that is as unsettling as it is hostile, with the slowly emerging traces of Lidia's interrupted life. In every room of the house, the burden of a mysterious, unresolved past can be felt, remnants of a selfish and manipulative love. The Perfect Circle is a subtly disturbing page-turner, every new page adding a new layer and twist.

Choose Your Age
In this groundbreaking manual for longevity, leading longevity expert Jean-Marc Lemaitre reveals how the latest science can help you measure, slow, and even reverse biological aging at a cellular level. For generations, we've accepted aging as an inevitable decline, measuring our years by birthdays while ignoring the more crucial metric—our biological age. Traditional medicine continues to treat the symptoms of age-related diseases rather than addressing their root cause: cellular aging itself. Too often, healthcare systems intervene only after disease has taken hold, managing decline rather than preventing it. In Choose Your Age, Jean-Marc Lemaitre—a renowned biogerontologist (a scientist of biological aging and age-related diseases)—presents a revolutionary alternative: a personalized, proactive approach to longevity that targets the fundamental mechanisms of aging before disease begins. This is not speculation or trendy "biohacking"—it's cutting-edge science: a comprehensive, evidence-based strategy for extending not just lifespan but healthspan, the years you spend free from disease and decline. Lemaitre's approach isn't prescriptive but educational, empowering you to understand the science of aging so you can make informed decisions about your health journey. In Choose Your Age, readers will discover:Why your chronological age is often misleading, and how new biological clocks can measure your true physiological age—revealing whether you're aging faster or slower than your peers. How telomeres, the protective caps on your chromosomes, influence aging, and what practical steps can help maintain their length and integrity. The revolutionary science of epigenetic reprogramming that could transform medicine's approach to aging by actually reversing cellular age. Why the Mediterranean diet and specific fasting protocols can dramatically impact longevity, and how to adapt these approaches to your unique biochemistry. How the lifestyles of centenarians in the world's "Blue Zones" offer practical insights for extending your own healthspan. The emerging potential of senolytic therapies, metformin, and rapamycin in targeting senescent "zombie cells" that accelerate aging. Why social connections, optimism, and time in nature are as crucial to longevity as any medical intervention—and how to incorporate them into your life. Choose Your Age provides a new paradigm for thinking about aging, transforming it from an inevitable decline into a manageable process that you can influence at every stage of life. With this roadmap in hand, you can chart a different course for your future—one where each decade brings not just more years, but better ones.

Where are my window songs?
Where are my Window Songs? has not a word out of place. The phrases are limpid and shimmer with sensory details so that we encounter places, creatures and the persona of the poet as though in the flesh, meaning and metaphor held in the thingness of this carefully and beautifully drawn world. The natural world, memory, how we journey through life, find form in language that is apparently simple but always holds layers and depths. The poetry here is immersive and questioning, elegant and always perspective-altering, gently powerful, and bears reading again and again. Patricia Helen Wooldridge is the winner of the 2024, Rubery Book Award for best poetry book, a twice winner of the Cinnamon Literature Award and also won the Cinnamon pamphlet award. In Where are my Window Songs? she is writing at the height of her power.

What to Make of a Life
THE QUESTION
What to make of a life?
It is a question we all wrestle with more than once. How do we find our way in the world? How do we make it past the cliffs, significant events that can radically change a life? How do we keep the inner fire burning bright, long and late?
Inspired by relentless curiosity, Jim Collins devoted a decade to studying these questions and to minutely analysing those moments when life flips from clarity to confusion and casts us into a befuddling fog.
THE STUDY
His exploration compares various lives side by side, paired together at cliffs, and analyses the different choices made and divergent paths taken.
• Two rock musicians confronting a future without the group that had brought them success.
• Two suffragists achieving their epic goal and then left with the puzzle of what to do next.
• Two public figures tainted by scandal having to make decisions about how to rebuild their lives.
• Two figure skaters seeking new purpose when their Olympic careers come to an end.
What emerges from Collins's extensive studies - of writers, actors, scientists, leaders, and many others - is a framework for understanding how individual lives can be built, sustained, and constantly renewed.
THE FINDINGS
By examining the long arc of these remarkable lives, Collins tackles life's questions. What does it take to:
• Discover a deeply fulfilling role in life - one that you are naturally 'encoded' for - and then find a second one, if the first one ends?
• Overcome a major cliff - a fracture point that forces choices about what's next and calls for you to reenvision the years to come?
• Make your personal economics work so that you can focus on One Big Thing that feeds your inner fire?
• Navigate the fog when you feel uncertain or even outright lost, and build confidence step by step
• Minimise the impact of bad luck and ensure the maximum return on good luck?
• Build personal momentum decade upon decade, so that your most creative and energetic years are spread across an entire lifetime?
• Achieve the imperative to 'Know Thyself' and apply self-knowledge to each phase of life?
THE TRANSFORMATION
For the first time, Collins movingly chronicles his own story to reveal how undertaking this project transformed him, changing his thinking and reshaping his emotions in fundamental ways. 'After this study,' writes Collins, 'I will never look at life the same ever again.'
Nepřítel mého nepřítele
Utekla jsem ve svatebních šatech s kulkou v paži, abych se dobrovolně vrhla do chřtánu Collinsových. Rodiny, která tu moji k smrti nenáviděla. A přesto byli jediní, kdo mě mohl zachránit. Emmett Collins byl nepřítel, ale já mu i tak dala všechno. Jinak to nešlo. Museli jsme si vzájemně důvěřovat. Najít kompromis. A ten byl v našem případě někde mezi vraždou a postelí. Sama jsem mu nakonec dala klíče… od mého těla, mé duše i srdce.
Candle Island
Lucretia Sanderson has a secret. Lucretia and her mother have come to tiny Candle Island, Maine (Population: Summer, 986; Winter, 315) to escape - escape memories of the car accident that killed her father and escape the journalists that hound her mother, a famous and reclusive artist. The rocky coast and ocean breeze are a welcome respite for Lucretia, who dedicates her summer days to painting, exploring the island, and caring for an orphaned osprey chick. But Candle Island has secrets of its own - a hidden room in her new house, a mysterious boy with a beautiful voice - and just like the strong tides that surround the shores, they will catch Lucretia in their wake. With an unforgettable New England setting and a complex web of relationships old and new, Candle Island is a powerful story about art, loss, and the power of being true to your own voice.
Late—Later
In this extraordinary debut collection, Kathleen Bridget Eva O’Hanlon dives deeply into a personal history that holds a mirror up to all the ways we piece together a lifetime of memories to weave a story of our many connected selves. Rich in references to literature, history, myth and culture, the poetry here remains accessible and resonant, clear-eyed, acutely observant and bristling with intelligent humour. We are reminded of the ways fragments of our pasts become defining moments – the casual remark to a child over a Crunchie bar that remains brutally clear decades later, the act of undemonstrative kindness that makes a child feel seen and valued in the simple gift of a wooden butter curler, the radical grandmother who ‘called a penis, a penis’, the life events and ordinary days that mark us – from almost marrying Casanova to childbirth, from our hungry ghosts to the way insomnia blurs into vision, threading loss and memory. It’s late and getting later, but still there is wit and life, still there is a legacy to leave and hope to insist on, memories that reshape both past and future. Still there is a credo – in the ‘great and final roar that is to come’ and in love.
