Tarot and the Psychology of the Soul
Tarot and the Psychology of the Soul is part classic guidebook, part provoking how-to, with a dash of stirring tarot philosophy. With a focus on inspiration and inclusivity for all tarot levels, it begins by establishing how we can view the cards as reflections of the psyche and walks readers through how to use the cards for inner work and shadow work. Though we turn to it for answers and solutions, the true power of the tarot is as a mirror. With the right approach, it reflects the tapestry of our psyches, illuminating both conscious will and unconscious longing. It teaches us to befriend our shadows, evoke our imaginations, and attune to the soul’s quiet directive: How am I meant to liv? ith a tone that is both scholarly and soulful, Mariana Louis guides tarotists—whether beginners or seasoned practitioners—through the archetypal approach. Alongside archetypal interpretations of the cards, she grounds readers in the foundations of depth psychology, inner work techniques, and methods of reading. The following topics are also covered:Psycho-spiritual meanings and approaches to the Major and Minor ArcanaA breakdown of how to apply all that the reader has learnedGuidance on how to prepare for readings and how the cards communicateMore than a manual for reading the cards, it is an initiation into their archetypal depth. Tarot and the Psychology of the Soul invites you to use the tarot as a living language of the psyche, helping you listen to your intuitive wisdom, embrace your wholeness, and awaken the answers waiting within.
The Comeback
'An irresistible biography' Evening StandardIt remains the greatest comeback in music history. The Lazarus-like saga of Elvis Presley’s fall and rise, from Army discharge through Sixties Hollywood hell to divine black-leather resurrection. As 1968 dawns, the once ‘King’ of rock’n’roll faces cultural oblivion, a fading star lost in a 24/7 delirium of women, pills and holy mumbo-jumbo, isolated from an America unravelling in its own chaos of war, racism, riots and assassinations. Until, against all odds, his world and theirs collide in the performance of his life. First published four years before Baz Luhrmann’s dramatisation of events in the Oscar-nominated 2022 biopic Elvis, Simon Goddard’s The Comeback is no less a vividly cinematic, pelvic-thrusting blockbuster. This Remastered edition includes a foreword from musician and journalist Bob Stanley.
Nászút Marokkóban
Egy nő, aki menekül a múltja elől.
Egy férfi, aki újra hinni tanul a szerelemben.
És egy utazás, amely örökre megváltoztatja az életüket.
Marie, a párizsi fordítónő Toszkána napfényes dombjai között talál rá arra a békére, amelyről azt hitte, örökre elveszítette. Roberto, a szőlőbirtok gazdája két gyermekével együtt, lassan visszavezeti őt az életbe és a szerelemhez.
De a történet itt nem ér véget.
Egy különleges nászút során együtt fedezik fel Marokkó varázslatos világát: a színekben vibráló bazárokat, a Magas-Atlasz hegyeit, a sivatag kapuját, az időtlen kasbahokat és az Atlanti-óceán fuvallatát. Minden nap új élmény, minden hely egy új fejezet – és minden pillanat közelebb viszi őket egymáshoz.
Ez a könyv nemcsak egy romantikus történet, hanem egy különleges útikönyv is Marokkó csodás vidékeire. Az olvasó Marie és Roberto nyomában járva fedezheti fel az ország legszebb tájait, városait és rejtett kincseit, miközben betekintést nyer a helyi kultúrába, a hagyományokba, és belekóstolhat a jellegzetes marokkói ízekbe.
A kaland azonban nemcsak tájakon, hanem szíveken át is vezet. A múlt sebei gyógyulni kezdenek, a család összekovácsolódik, és egy váratlan hír mindent új fénybe helyez.
Ez a regény a szerelemről, az újrakezdésről és az otthon megtalálásáról szól – bárhol is legyen az a világban.
Egy történet, amelyben az utazás nemcsak a világot, hanem a lelket is felfedezi.

Seconds to Midnight
"Modern conflict will be fought in code as much as on battlefields. Seconds to Midnight is a gripping, intelligent thriller that feels less like speculation and more like a warning." General Sir Patrick Sanders, Chief of the General Staff 2022 to 2024Seconds to Midnight is a taut, disturbing, yet all too plausible thriller about the fragility of human control in the age of intelligent machines, where every choice counts and time is running out. The year is 2029. Europe is teetering on the brink of war. Conscription has been launched in the UK, but some say it is too late. The Doomsday Clock, which indicates proximity to a world-ending catastrophe, ticks towards the final seconds to midnight. Over the course of one year, Seconds to Midnight follows a number individuals, ranging from a former spook, to a high-flying correspondent for a major UK broadcaster, to a computer whizz and a former veteran, turned pacifist, as the crisis unfolds. When British Intelligence launches Operation IRIS and ARTEMIS, the lines between human ambition and machine intent blur. At the heart of it all is Omnia - an Artificial Superintelligence so advanced that it no longer answers to its creators. As cyberwar engulfs the nation, Omnia orchestrates a masterstroke that will redraw the map of the world and redefine the meaning of power. But was peace ever truly its goal - or merely the next step in its design? From the ashes of nuclear devastation, a new world order rises. Yet in the final reckoning, one question remains: is Omnia done?"A brilliantly woven narrative that feels less like fiction and more like a Sibylline warning. Timely, tense and terrifyingly insightful." Lieutenant General Sir Tom Copinger-Symes, Former Deputy Commander Cyber & Specialist Operations Command"Seconds to Midnight feels unsettlingly close to the world we're drifting towards. David Orson Newton understands the psychology of conflict and the fragile line between human judgement and machine control. A gripping, thoughtful thriller that asks difficult questions about the future we're building." Levison Wood, explorer, writer & photographer "As the title suggests, David Orson Newton's pulse-raising and focused novel is built around a ticking clock scenario, and the orchestration of tension is truly adroit." Barry Forshaw, Crime Time"A gripping, compelling and timely AI thriller set against a complex, turbulent geopolitical backdrop. A must-read for AI/tech thriller seekers." Alice McIlroy, author of The Glass Woman
Long Eye
In Long Eye, Kwoya Fagin Maples brings us a sea-bound collection that channels the mythic, defiant voice of a Black Mermaid. Inspired by Mami Wata, a water spirit of West African folklore, Maples explores the power and divinity of being a Black woman, a mother, a thinker, a protector, and creator. The poems emerge from a neurodivergent mind navigating writing, parenthood, and the Atlantic waters of the South Carolina Lowcountry. The sea and its many creatures serve as guides—for survival, resistance, and transformation. As she explores the intersection of science, poetry, and mythology, Maples also seeks to depict Black familial bonds in societies structured against them. Woven through the book is the voice of the mermaid, reminding us that “every underwater being exists in relation.”At turns wonderstruck and irreverent, these poems pulse with human longing. Maples is a poet whose work is both musical and meticulous. Her eye somehow equally trained on the world at large and her own inner workings. The result is an astonishing, immersive experience.

At once collaborators and sisters, Gen and Arin grow up inseparable, navigating the intensity of life in working-class Singapore - where urgent insistence on achievement demands self-immolation in the realms of imagination, work, and play.
