Kylian Mbappe - The Definitive Biography
'Only the second teenager to have scored a goal in a World Cup Final! Welcome to the club - it's great to have some company!' Pelé
This was the praise lauded upon Kylian Mbappé who, at just 19 years of age, led France to triumph at the 2018 World Cup. As golden confetti rained down, millions across the globe watched as the young man kissed the iconic trophy; the heir to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as the best footballer in the world had announced himself. It was his crowning moment.
In Kylian Mbappé: The Definitive Biography, Julien Laurens, the world's leading French football journalist, paints a vivid portrait of Mbappé's meteoric rise to global stardom. After a decade covering Kylian's career, Julien has had unprecedented access to the player's friends, coaches and teammates past and present. Exploring Mbappé's humble upbringing in the suburbs of Paris and schooling at the famed Clairefontaine academy, his peerless rise with AS Monaco and Paris Saint-Germain, as well as his dream move to Real Madrid where his career has reached new heights, this extensive biography crafts an intimate account of Kylian's life.
Julien takes us into the inner workings of Mbappé's psyche, as we witness how becoming a world superstar at just 19 affected the young Parisian. From the complex relationship he had with his boyhood club and its hierarchy to valiantly losing against Lionel Messi's Argentina in the 2022 World Cup Final, and becoming the new face of Real Madrid's galácticos, Julien shows us how the Mbappé that stars for club and country today is unrecognisable from the one who won the World Cup with France in 2018.
James
Román je specifickým převyprávěním slavného příběhu Marka Twaina – Dobrodružství Huckleberryho Fina. Hlavním hrdinou je však černošský otrok jménem Jim a spolu s ním chlapec Huckleberry. Tito dva hrdinové se spolu shodou okolností ocitají na útěku. Jim utíká z farmy, kde pracuje, protože zaslechl, že má být prodán. Má na farmě manželku a dceru a nechce být od nich odveden. Utíká a věří, že se pro ně jednou vrátí. Huck zase utíká od tyranského otce, který ho bije. Narafičí prasečí krev, aby to vypadalo, že ho někdo zabil. Ovšem nedochází mu, že spolu s Jimovým útěkem to může vypadat, že za jeho zmizení a případnou smrt může právě Jim. Roku 2025 obdržel autor za román Pulitzerovu cenu.

Churchill and the Crown
The story of Winston Churchill's long relationship with the Crown—from radical liberal under Edward VII to his last premiership as an old man under the young Queen Elizabeth II. Winston Churchill was born in a palace and was given a funeral worthy of a king. His family had enjoyed an intimate association with the British monarchy stretching back centuries. As King Edward VIII said of him, 'I have never met anyone of royal blood who exemplified in such high degree the ideal of the 'good king.' Churchill and the Crown tells the story of Churchill's relationship with the various kings and queens he served during his long political career, from young journalist under Edward VII, through his dramatic fall from grace in the First World War under George V, the frustrations of appeasement during the interwar period and his relationship with Edward VIII during the abdication crisis of 1936, culminating in his Finest Hour in the Second World War under George VI and the coda of Churchill's public service to his final monarch: Queen Elizabeth II. Ted Powell analyses Churchill's writings on monarchy and his role in preserving and establishing monarchies outside Britain. At the core of the book is a series of studies of Churchill's relationships with the monarchs he served. These studies offer a two-way perspective, examining both Churchill's view of individual monarchs and their attitudes towards him. They shed light not only on Churchill's career but also on the changing role of the monarchy in 20th century Britain.

Windswept
From New York Times bestselling and Newbery Honor–winning author Margi Preus, a gripping middle-grade fantasy about a girl who must save the children of her world from being “windswept.”In Tag’s world, children are disappearing. “Youngers” who venture Outside are windswept—vanishing in the swirling snow—Tag’s sisters among them. Many have tried to find the lost children; all have failed. And since the Other Times, the Powers That Be seem intent on keeping it that way. Little remains from those times: snippets of songs, heaps of plastic trash, and a few banned texts—including a book of fairy tales. An unlikely crew of Youngers join forces—Boots, who can climb anything, Ant, who will eat anything, Ren, who will say anything, and Tag, who doesn’t appear to have any talent whatsoever. With their dubious skills, the fairy tales, a possibly magic ribbon, and an unwillingness to accept “that’s impossible,” they set off to rescue their windswept siblings in this spellbinding fantasy. Includes a map and black-and-white illustrations by award-winning artist Armando Veve

Kvízkérdéseket megoldani jóval több, mint egyszerű kikapcsolódás: kinek szórakozás, kinek játék, kinek sport, kinek szenvedély, kinek mindez együtt.

A feladványok bajnokságok és kupaküzdelmek felejthetetlen pillanatait idézik fel, napjaink sztárjaihoz és a múlt legendáihoz kötődő tudásunkat tesztelik, olyan gólokra emlékeztetnek, melyek földön túli örömöket okoztak - vagy melyeket legszívesebben örökre elfelejtenénk.
Melyik edzőt szokás a Special One, azaz a Különleges néven emlegetni? Melyik az egyetlen válogatott, amelyik részt vett minden eddigi világbajnokságon? Ki szerezte 2026-ig a legtöbb gólt a Bajnokok Ligájában? Melyik magyar játékos lőtt gólt a franciáknak a 2020-as Európa-bajnokságon? Hányszor lépett pályára az Aranycsapat a klasszikus Grosics - Buzánszky, Lóránt, Lantos - Bozsik, Zakariás - Budai II., Kocsis, Hidegkuti, Puskás, Czibor felállásban?
Ilyen és ezekhez hasonló kérdésekkel találkozhatunk a Géniusz Focikvíz-t forgatva. A könyv sokszínű feladványait fejthetjük egyedül, ha szeretnénk megtudni magunkról, Messi vagy Ronaldo pályafutását ismerjük-e jobban, de játszhatunk párban vagy csapatokban is, ha kíváncsiak vagyunk, ki tud többet a Liverpoolról, a stadionok világáról, a vb-k és Eb-k emlékezetes pillanatairól vagy a magyar válogatottról.

Backstage Confidential
Backstage Confidential lifts the curtain on West End Theatre from a viewpoint rarely heard: the wings. Beginning his career at seventeen, Eden Phillips rose to become London’s youngest head flyman before veering into acting, writing and publishing — yet always remained an observer of the theatre’s hidden world.

Along the way he encounters an array of theatrical greats, from Sir Noël Coward, Sir John Gielgud and Dame Judi Dench to directors Hal Prince and Harold Pinter. A lively, humorous and affectionate insider’s glimpse into a golden age of British theatre.

Speed
Prepare to view the world through a new lens - SPEED - a groundbreaking exploration that challenges your perceptions of life's driving force, from the internationally bestselling author
'There is perhaps no other academic who paints pictures with numbers like Smil' Guardian
In a world that feels like it's moving faster than ever, Smil examines how our relentless pursuit of speed - in areas such as production, travel and communication - shapes not only our technological landscape but also our social and environmental realities. And through engaging anecdotes and striking statistics, Smil challenges the assumption that faster is always better.
He invites readers to reconsider the implications of our collective obsession with speed, and its intricate relationship with nature and innovation. For example, he highlights the surprising fact that erosion can actually accelerate mountain growth, and he points out that the rapid adoption of mobile phones - achieving 90 per cent penetration in just nineteen years - reflects historical patterns of technological adoption, suggesting that our world may not be moving significantly faster than in the past.
Whether exploring the tiny mites that can traverse 300 times their body length in a second or the societal impacts of high-frequency trading, Speed invites readers to engage in a more balanced conversation about the role of speed in our lives, in an age defined by haste.
