A Day in the Life of a Gladiator
In ancient Rome, a single day could decide a gladiator's fate. Follow in their footsteps with bestselling author Harry Sidebottom.
Take a seat at the feast on the eve of the games and watch as the men marked for combat enjoy their final meal.
At dawn, Roman citizens rush to the Colosseum to see the spectacles: wild-beast hunts, public executions and carefully choreographed violence - all part of a good day's entertainment.
Watch as the gladiators enter the arena - armour gleaming, shields locked, they step into the light, fighting not just for survival but for the favour of the crowd.
Gripping, immersive and grounded in ancient sources, A Day in the Life of a Gladiator illuminates the reality of Roman life and death in all its glory. This is history as it happened - not in the marble halls of emperors, but on the blood-darkened sand of the arena.
Previously published in hardback as Those Who Are About to Die.

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.

Zahrádky
Kniha se soustřeďuje především na zahrádkaření v zahrádkových osadách. Právě zahrádkové osady jsou součástí evropských měst už 150 let. A jsou v Evropě všudypřítomné. Jsou tedy dlouhodobou – třebaže proměnlivou – a běžnou součástí měnících se měst. Zahrádky i celé zahrádkové osady představují prostory, které jsou pro moderní evropské město typické. Díky tomu je možné zahrádky použít jako nástroj k důkladnému prozkoumání vztahu mezi městem, městským životem a přírodou, ale i proměn těchto vztahů v průběhu času.
A Tisza áradása
A kötet Hann Endre ajánlásával jelenik meg.
Ez a könyv nem utólag magyaráz. Ez a könyv ott volt. 2024 februárjában egyetlen, akkor még értelmezhetetlen lépéssel indult az egész. Egy ismeretlen arc a képernyőn, egy mondat, ami más volt, mint a többi. Bojár Iván András, aki a Magyar Narancs című híres hetilap első főszerkesztője volt, végzettsége szerint művészettörténész, jelenleg ismert író és véleményformáló közéleti személyiség. Ösztönből fordult a klaviatúrához, ahogy évtizedek óta teszi, ha a történelem szaga érződik a levegőben. Nem hitt, nem remélt. Csak figyelt. Jegyzetelt. Mérlegelt. Túl sokszor látta már, hogyan fullad keserűségbe, hogyan bénul meg minden demokratikus kísérlet. De Magyar Péter, majd a nyomában felnövekedő Tisza nem állt meg. Hétről hétre, hónapról hónapra hömpölygött, és vitte magával az országot. Meg a szerzőt. Hűvös megfigyelőből előbb döbbent tanú lett, aztán dühös résztvevő, végül a rendszerváltás lelkes krónikása. A naplóval együtt változott ő is: a távolságtartásból hit lett, a kételyből sürgetés, a jegyzetelésből kiáltvány. Két éven át, napról napra követheti, hogyan reped meg egy betonnak hitt rendszer. Ott lesz a Kossuth téren, amikor először kimondják: győzhetünk. Ott lesz a vidéki roadshow-kon, ahol egy ország tanul meg újra remélni. Ott lesz a szerkesztőségben, a családi asztalnál, az éjszakai vitákban, ahol eldől, hogy ez most tényleg más lesz. És ott lesz azon a tavaszi estén, amikor a kivetítőn felizzik a mondat, amire 16 éve várunk: „Orbán Viktor gratulált Magyar Péternek”. Ez a könyv nem politológusi elemzés, nem memoár, nem történelemkönyv. Ez maga a történelem, ahogy történik. Nincs benne utólagos bölcsesség, nincs kozmetika. Ami bizonytalan volt, az a lapokon is bizonytalan. Ami felemelő volt, az ma is felemel. Újra élheti a pillanatot, amikor egy ország visszakapta a jövőjét. A TISZA ÁRADÁSA nem csak elmeséli a rendszerváltást. Belöki a közepébe, és amikor leteszi, már tudni fogja: 2026 áprilisa nem egy folyamat vége volt, hanem a kezdet
The God and the Gumiho - Az isten és a Skarlát Róka - A sors fonala 1.
Két csipkelődő halhatatlan. Egy esély a világ megmentésére.
Kim Hani - az egykor Skarlát Róka néven ismert és rettegett gumiho - egy kávézóban dolgozik, és igyekszik elkerülni, hogy egy bizonyos vendég felbosszantsa.
Szokka - a csalárd isten, akit egy puccskísérlet miatt száműztek a mennyekből - démonokra vadászik, és nem hagy ki egy alkalmat sem, hogy egy bizonyos gumiho idegeire menjen.
Mikor a sötétség egyik démona megszökik az alvilágból, a Skarlát Róka pedig előbújik rejtekéből, Szokka esélyt kap a megváltásra: ha megöli mindkettőt, bűnei megbocsátást nyernek.
Bármire hajlandóak lennének, hogy túljárjanak egymás eszén... csak arra nem, hogy szerelembe essenek.
