Mud and Glass
￥48.97
Life is fairly workaday for Dr Celeste Carlucci, a professor at Krasnia’s finest university, until her best friend and colleague Pace involves Celeste in her research. Before long, Celeste is being shot at from a hovering helicopter, attacked on a moonlit mountain path, and followed by shadowy minions – on the trail of the Littoral Codex, an ancient and indecipherable book. The race is on to figure out its secrets. On one side are Celeste and her colleagues, armed with nothing but enthusiasm, brilliant minds, and the principles of geography. Against them are the repressive university governors and their jackbooted campus security guards; the rich and power-hungry Praxicopolis family; and a renegade group of researchers, the Littoral League. Will this ragtag bunch outwit their foes before it’s too late?
The Three Partners
￥40.79
The sun was going down on the Black Spur Range. The red light it had kindled there was still eating its way along the serried crest, showing through gaps in the ranks of pines, etching out the interstices of broken boughs, fading away and then flashing suddenly out again like sparks in burnt-up paper. Then the night wind swept down the whole mountain side, and began its usual struggle with the shadows upclimbing from the valley, only to lose itself in the end and be absorbed in the all-conquering darkness.
The Red and the Black
￥40.79
The Red and the Black is the Bildungsroman of Julien Sorel, the intelligent and ambitious protagonist. He comes from a poor family and fails to understand much about the ways of the world he sets out to conquer. He harbours many romantic illusions, but becomes mostly a pawn in the political machinations of the ruthless and influential people about him. The adventures of the hero satirize early 19th-century French society, especially the hypocrisy and materialism of the aristocracy and members of the Roman Catholic Church, foretelling the coming radical changes that will depose them from their leading role in French society.

In Pursuit Of The Two Legged Mule
￥63.11
In Pursuit of the Two Legged Mule is the true story of the war waged by Officers of Her Majesty’s Customs and Excise at Heathrow Airport against the international drug smuggler. The smuggler, or mule, as he or she was generally known, was devious and determined, but so were the Customs Officers. The book shows how the officers kept up with the ever changing methods of concealments, how they learnt to adapt to each new challenge. For example when internal concealments, swallowers, appeared on the scene, the immediate dilemma was. “Just how do we retrieve the packages of drugs?” The story is told from the viewpoint of the officer in the Terminals or on the Tarmac areas at Heathrow. It shows them as just normal people, with everyday problems, carrying out a difficult job. It explains the thought processes that lead to an interception and an arrest. It is told with the same high degree of humour that was displayed by the officers as they carried out their arduous and sometimes dangerous duties.
New Year's Eve
￥8.09
Aurora Award Finalist The year is 1999. The world awaits a new millennium with a mixture of anticipation and dread. The fear stems from the much-hyped Y2K computer problem, the so-called millennium bug, which could cause uncorrected programs to fail all over the world. PCWare is the world’s largest software company. John Dunne is team leader for the company’s newest operating system, the first with a virtual reality user interface, complete with virtual human agents. But on Millennium Eve, John has problems. A Y2K bug has been discovered in the software…and John’s virtual girlfriend has become far too real. "The story deals with the Y2k bug, and although that might seem dated now, the story is not, since its ideas continue to be relevant today." —Bibliopolis
The Mahabharata of Palmira: Volume Two: The Yoke
￥83.06
This is the final part of a two-volume radical retelling of the ancient Indian epic, The Mahābhārata. The first volume, The Scales, follows the story of Karna as he goes from mysterious and humble beginnings to train in the arts of combat with two sets of princes. His rivalry with Arjuna, the greatest warrior among these, embroils him in the growing enmity between the royal families.? In this second volume, The Yoke, the antagonism between the princes leads to a battle in which Arjuna will inevitably have to face Karna. In the ancient epic, just before battle begins, Arjuna is reluctant to fight, and the action is temporarily suspended to deliver the Bhagavad Gītā, a sacred text involving a dialogue between Arjuna and Krishna. In this retelling there occurs instead at this point a dialogue in which there is an attempt to persuade Arjuna that free will and the distinction between mind and brain are illusions. In the aftermath of the ensuing battle, the mystery of Karna begins to unravel. This fiction hopes to celebrate ancient India's immense contributions to humanity; but its ultimate purpose is to take you out of reality and then to return you, perhaps to a different place. Have a safe journey back.

L'Abbesse De Castro
￥40.79
Le mélodrame nous a montré si souvent les brigands italiens du seizième siècle, et tant de gens en ont parlé sans les conna?tre, que nous en avons maintenant les idées les plus fausses. On peut dire en général que ces brigands furent l'opposition contre les gouvernements atroces qui, en Italie, succédèrent aux républiques du moyen ?ge. Le nouveau tyran fut d'ordinaire le citoyen le plus riche de la défunte république, et, pour séduire le bas peuple, il ornait la ville d'églises magnifiques et de beaux tableaux.
Hard Times
￥88.70
A brilliant satirist, Ostap Vyshnia (1889-1956) sent up the shortcomings of Soviet life and bureaucracy in the 1920s. He was famous in Ukraine almost exclusively for his feuilletons, and achieved enormous popularity in this genre in the 1920s, especially among the peasant population. Called by many the father of contemporary Ukrainian satire, he became the most-read author after Taras Shevchenko. Many village and town cooperatives, schools and farms were spontaneously named in his honour. Over two million copies of his books were sold by 1930. This second revised and expanded edition is introduced by Professor Maxim Tarnawsky (University of Toronto).
