The Spirit of Mercedes
A dynamic exploration of Mercedes, one of the world's foremost car brands, with lively photography and witty observations about why we love them.
Karl Benz, who founded Mercedes Benz, invented the first car. So, since 1879, Mercedes Benz has been at the forefront of innovation. With their superior quality, sleek look and iconic three-pointed star logo (with the points representing land, sea and air), it's a car brand with true global power and recognition. It has produced some of the fastest cars in the world, such as the 2022 Mercedes-AMG One Hybrid model, which can reach speeds of 219 mph.
This fun and fascinating book, written by car-enthusiast and Mercedes owner Vaughan Grylls, is a tour de force through the history of Mercedes as told by its cars. From the world's first car, the Benz Patent Motor Car, to the most expensive car ever sold, the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe, the story of Mercedes is a long and fascinating one, and is described in this book alongside a stunning range of photography.
The ideal gift for every car enthusiast, whether they're a Mercedes aficionado or just an admirer, this beautifully illustrated book perfectly conveys the joys of this classic brand.

Ale nejen to, na hradě se v noci objevuje tajemná postava. Je ona tím vrahem? Jiří Adam se celé věci ujme, ale záhy zjistí, že věc je mnohem složitější, než se na první pohled zdá.

Sunbirth
As the sun starts slowly disappearing, the residents of a remote town in the desert find themselves undergoing shocking transformations in this dazzlingly eerie and bewitching novel.
In Five Poems Lake, a town surrounded by impenetrable deserts, the sun is slowly disappearing overhead. A young woman keeps an apprehensive eye on the sky above as she tends her family's pharmacy of traditional medicine. She has few customers, and even fewer visitors. Her father was found dead by the lake twelve years ago, in unexplained circumstances. Her elder sister, Dong Ji, works at a wellness parlour across town for those who can afford it - which, during these strange and difficult days, is not many.
The town fell on hard times long before the sun began to shrink. But now, as the temperature drops and the lake freezes over, the inhabitants of the town realise there is no way they can survive. When the Beacons appear - ordinary people with heads replaced by searing, blinding light, like miniature suns - the residents wonder if they may hold the answer to their salvation, or if they are just another sign of impending ruin. Soon, Dong Ji and her sister will uncover a photograph which may offer a clue in the mystery of the Beacons, and finally help them learn what happened to their father.
Rottenheart
THE UNMISSABLE NEW SAPPHIC GOTHIC HORROR NOVEL FROM KAT DUNN, AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF HUNGERSTONE AND BITTERTHORN
Revenge me. For I am murdered . . .
Odette and Cecilia are young women, living between their grand homes in Hampstead and the imposing, ancient Herne House in Suffolk. Though Odette's artist mother Lydia keeps a tight grasp on her, she and her beloved Cecilia are mostly left free to roam, to learn and to love.
But when Lydia inexplicably sickens and dies, a dark veil falls. As the funeral rites are performed, Odette's aunt, the cold and implacable Claudine, increasingly takes charge of the household, while her father retreats to his study. Odette, lost in grief, disappears into the shadows.
But as Claudine is announced as Odette's new stepmother, a sinister presence in the house makes itself known. To her horror, Odette realises that despite her death, Lydia never really left. And now she wants revenge . . .
Inspired by Hamlet, the ultimate revenge tragedy, Rottenheart is the stunning new sapphic gothic horror novel from Kat Dunn, the lauded author of Hungerstone and Bitterthorn. Set in the 1890s, this a story of love and grief, mothers and daughters, death and madness.
Nobodys Quest
She has no army. No power. And no name. But when two factions of gods are at war, only a NOBODY can save the world. . .
Don't miss out on the stunning DELUXE LIMITED EDITION while supplies last. This breathtaking collectible is only available on a limited first print run, a must-have for any book lover.
An epic quest fantasy adventure in which an indentured servant must free the goddess of peace and wisdom.
The goddess needs a nobody. The prince needs a miracle. Soli Graymind might be both.
Soli has spent most of her life being invisible-an indentured servant, a library mold-scrubber, the girl no one sees unless she's in the way. So, when the king's guards show up with swords drawn, she assumes it's a mistake.
It's not.
Moments later, she's standing in the throne room while the king tells her she's been chosen to retrieve a set of ancient keys-only the keys can save the goddess and stop the chaos beyond the palace walls. Because the world isn't waiting to be saved.
It's already burning.
And beside him stands Prince Kaelen: devastatingly beautiful, mercilessly cold, and certain Soli won't survive the hard journey ahead.
He's probably right.
But Soli's survived a lifetime of hard everything. She may be a nobody-no training, no real power, and no idea why she was chosen-but she refuses to be expendable. Even if the quest ahead is anything but simple. When assassins, monsters, and impossible choices fracture the fragile alliance slowly building with the Prince, Soli realizes she can't hide in the shadows anymore.
Because, for the first time in her life, she has something to lose…
A high-stakes romantasy filled with slow-burn romance, found family, and a heroine who never expected to be anyone's first choice.

A Pál utcai fiúk
„[…] most először kezdett derengeni egyszerű gyereklelkében a sejtés arról, hogy tulajdonképpen mi is az élet, amelynek mindnyájan küzdő, hol bánatos, hol vidám szolgái vagyunk.”
A több mint száz éve íródott A Pál utcai fiúk immár a magyar irodalom élő klasszikusa. Molnár Ferenc humora, kifinomult karakterábrázolása és a regény témái – hűség, barátság, összetartás – kortalanná, a mai iskolások számára is élvezhetővé és mélyen átélhetővé teszik a történetet. Nem véletlen, hogy A Pál utcai fiúk az egyik legismertebb és legolvasottabb magyar regény külföldön, több országban is kötelező vagy ajánlott olvasmány.
A regényből készült, 2016 óta több színházban is hatalmas sikerrel játszott musical a kedvelt kötelező olvasmány népszerűségét új szintre emelte: a zene, a találó szövegek még közelebb hozták a fiatalokhoz a mondanivalót, az összetartozás érzését, amelyre napjainkban óriási szükség van.
Nacu nyara
Kavakami korábban megjelent, azonos című kisregénye három nő történetét mesélte el: a harmincéves, hajadon narrátorét, nővéréét, Makikóét és Makiko lányáét, Midorikóét. Makiko nem tud megbékélni a szülés után megváltozott testével, a mellnagyobbító műtét megszállottja lesz. Közben tizenkét éves lánya, Midoriko a pubertás félelmétől megbénítva képtelen kifejezni a felnőtté válással kapcsolatos félelmeit. A narrátor saját meghatározhatatlan identitásával küzd, mivel se nem "lány", se nem "anya". A könyv három forró napon játszódik Tokióban.
Ebben a bővített változatban a történet második fejezete egy másik forró nyári napon, tíz évvel később kezdődik. A narrátor, aki még mindig egyedülálló és gyermektelen, egyre jobban szorong amiatt, hogy egyedül fog megöregedni, és soha nem lesz anya. Így aztán más nők, barátok és rokonok tanácsát kéri, és hosszas tépelődés után a mesterséges megtermékenyítés mellett dönt. Ám ez a döntés egy mélyen konzervatív országban, ahol a nők reproduktív jogai állandó fenyegetés alatt állnak, nem valósítható meg dráma nélkül.
A Nacu nyara a japán nők rendszerszintű elnyomását és a felszabadulás lehetőségét, a kapcsolati erőszakot és a reproduktív etikát veszi górcső alá. A komédiát és a realizmust ötvöző mű olyan, akár egy utazás a belső erő és béke megtalálása felé.
Kavakami Mieko a Nacu nyara (Breasts and Eggs) című nemzetközi bestseller világszerte elismert szerzője. Oszakában született, pályáját költőként kezdte, első novellája, Az egóm, a fogaim és a világ (My Ego, My Teeth, and the World) 2007-ben jelent meg. Lírai hangvételű regényeit, melyeket több mint 38 nyelvre fordítottak le, a társadalometikai kérdések felvetése, valamint a női lét és a női test ábrázolása teszi egyedivé. Jelenleg Tokióban él. Magyarul eddig Az éj szerelmesei (2024) című kötete jelent meg.
Tentacles and Triathlons
REVISED AND EXPANDED PAPERBACK EDITION
When a grumpy park ranger meets a charming kraken, love might be worth the swim upstream in this sexy monster romance.
When parks department supervisor Reece Rollins decides to sign up for a triathlon, there are two things holding him back. One, his fear of monsters. Two, his sub-par swimming skills.
At the urging of his sister's wolven mate, Reece joins Leviathan Fitness to train in the gym's olympic size swimming pool. After running into Reece at the pool, Cyrus offers to help Reece get ready to win the race.
New feelings arise from the depths as Reece and Cyrus learn that monsters and humans go together, tentacle in hand. The only question is: can these two hold on to their new found love despite their differences?
The Wish
From the bestselling author of THE TATTOOIST OF AUSCHWITZ comes a heartbreaking contemporary novel of a dying teenager's final wish, a lonely young man's journey towards connection, and the unexpected friendship they find together. Perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes, Jodi Picoult, and John Green.
Jesse is 15. She loves her friends, her little brother and her parents - even when they're arguing, which feels like constantly these days. But most of all, she loves playing video games. Even from her hospital bed.
Alex is 29. He doesn't love a lot of things. To be honest, he's not really sure he knows how to. His desk at work, as VR games designer, is empty, much like his life feels sometimes.
Then Jesse makes a wish. A simple one: a video experience made of her life, something to be there, just in case she isn't.
One loving teenager.
One lonely adult.
Which one will get the happy ending?
