Escape Hatch
￥8.09
It came from beneath the sea! The hideous alien “sluggos” have arrived, bloodthirsty tentacled aliens that infest the oceans of Earth, and it will take the best military minds of the Planetary Navy to defeat them. Admiral Bruce Haldane has faced the sluggos in engagement after engagement, and the humans are slaughtered each time. Fortunately for Haldane, though, because of his high rank, he has an “escape hatch”—at the last moment of a military defeat when his own death is certain, he can swap his consciousness with another safe body, a “cannon fodder” recruit who exists only to be ready in case he needs to make the ultimate sacrifice. Paulson Kenz is one of those cannon-fodder recruits, too weak and wimpy to be appropriate for the battlefield, but he doesn’t want to go down without a fight. Knowing that at any moment he might find himself transported into a horrific last stand against slavering aliens, he has to become an even greater military genius than Admiral Haldane himself.

￥8.09
Tárna Barni tizenkettedik születésnapja nem kezd?dik valami jól. Reggel zuhogó es?ben kell megsétáltatnia a kutyát. Egy újabb rémes iskolai nap vár rá, mert a suliban gonosz osztálytársa, Ged? meg az a hátborzongató Ostoros igazgatón? folyton megkeseríti az életét. Ráadásul nyomtalanul elt?nt apukájától sem kap még egy képeslapot sem. Nem csoda, ha Barni bánatában azt találja mondani: ?Bárcsak macska lennék!”. De vigyázz, mit kívánsz! Mert bizony a macskalét sem fenékig tejf?l... Ez a regény olyan izgalmas, hogy ha elkezded, a házi feladatra már biztos nem marad id?d! Amennyiben ez t?rténne, az óra el?tt jelentsd az esetet tanárodnak, és add k?lcs?n neki a k?nyvet! Matt Haig (1975) számtalan díjnyertes feln?tt- és ifjúsági regény szerz?je, forgatók?nyvíró, újságíró. K?nyvei k?zel 30 nyelven olvashatók. Feleségével és két gyermekével Yorkban él, és azt állítja, a pletykákkal ellentétben soha életében nem volt macska. (V?r?s kandúr meg aztán végképp nem!) Stacey Curtis díjnyertes amerikai karikaturista, képregényrajzoló, illusztrátor. Számos sikeres gyerekk?nyvh?z készített illusztrációt. Chicagoban él feleségével, lányával és a kutyájukkal. Egyáltalán nem tartja kizártnak, hogy élt már macskatestben. (Szerencsére a kutyájuk nem emlékszik erre.)
A Mixture of Genius: Illustrated

Ez Fabius Petronius Secundus római legionárius és centurió – valamint hadvezére, Scipio Aemilianus – felemelkedésének t?rténete: a makedónok elleni els? csatájától, amely megpecsételi Nagy Sándor birodalmának sorsát, az ?szak-Afrikában vívott, mindenre kiterjed? háborúig és Karthágó ostromáig. Scipio sikerei csodálatot és tiszteletet váltanak ki, de egyben kapzsiságot és féltékenységet is fialnak – legszorosabb sz?vetségeseit?l legelkeseredettebb ellenségeiig. ?s ott van még Julia is, a Caesar családból – a kiszámíthatatlan lány, aki Scipiót szereti, de annak vetélytársával, Paulusszal jegyzeték el –, aki csúf viszály kiváltója lesz. Végül Scipiónak egyetlen kérdésre kell csak válaszolnia: mi mindent képes feláldozni a látomásért, amit Rómáról alkotott?

Hogy végül olyan megd?bbent?en pimasz tervvel rukkoljon el?, ami magába a s?tétség szívébe repíti ?ket, a legrettegettebb harcos-király er?djébe, akit a világ valaha is ismert. Az elk?vetkez? leszámolásban, a legnagyobb ütk?zetben, amelyet Róma valaha is vívott, a gy?zelem azoké lesz, akik a háború leghatalmasabb jelképét, amelyet valaha is kovácsoltak, a magasba tudják emelni – Attila szent kardját.
Reminiscences of Tolstoy
￥8.09
According to Wikipedia: "Leo Tolstoy, or Count Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy (September 9, 1828 – November 20, 1910), was a Russian writer widely regarded as among the greatest of European novelists. His masterpieces, War and Peace and Anna Karenina, represent the peak of realist fiction in their scope, breadth and vivid depiction of 19th-century Russian life and mind. Tolstoy's further talents as essayist, dramatist, and educational reformer made him the most influential member of the aristocratic Tolstoy family. His literal interpretation of the ethical teachings of Jesus, centering on the Sermon on the Mount, caused him in later life to become a fervent Christian anarchist and pacifist. His ideas on nonviolent resistance, expressed in such works as The Kingdom of God Is Within You, were to have a profound impact on such pivotal twentieth-century figures as Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr."

Classic western. According to Wikipedia: "Frederick Schiller Faust (May 29, 1892 - May 12, 1944) was an American fiction author known primarily for his thoughtful and literary Westerns. Faust wrote mostly under pen names, and today is primarily known by one, Max Brand. Others include George Owen Baxter, Evan Evans, David Manning, John Frederick, Peter Morland, George Challis, and Frederick Frost. ... Faust managed a massive outpouring of fiction, rivaling Edgar Wallace and especially Isaac Asimov as one of the most prolific authors of all time. He wrote more than 500 novels for magazines and almost as many stories of shorter length. His total literary output is estimated to have been between 25,000,000 and 30,000,000 words. Most of his books and stories were turned out at breakneck rate, sometimes as quickly as 12,000 words in the course of a weekend. New books based on magazine serials or unpublished manuscripts or restored versions continue to appear so that he has averaged a new book every four months for seventy-five years. Beyond this, some work by him is newly reprinted every week of every year in one or another format somewhere in the world."

Madame Bovary
￥8.09
Selon Wikipedia: "Madame Bovary est un roman de Gustave Flaubert qui a été attaqué pour obscénité par les procureurs quand il a été publié en feuilleton dans La Revue de Paris entre le 1er octobre 1856 et le 15 décembre 1856, ce qui a conduit à un procès en janvier 1857 Après l'acquittement du 7 février, il est devenu un best-seller sous forme de livre en avril 1857, et est maintenant pratiquement non contesté non seulement comme une ?uvre séminale du réalisme, mais comme l'un des romans les plus influents jamais écrit. L'épouse du docteur, Emma Bovary, qui a des affaires adultères et vit au-dessus de ses moyens pour échapper aux banalités et au vide de la vie provinciale.L'art de base est plut?t simple, voire archétypal, l'art véritable du roman réside dans ses détails et ses schémas cachés. Flaubert était notoirement perfectionniste dans son écriture et prétendait toujours être à la recherche du mot juste ... Un sondage réalisé en 2007 par des auteurs contemporains ... a cité Madame Bovary comme l'une des deux grandes st romans jamais écrits. "

Bab: a Sub-Deb
￥8.09
According to Wikipedia: "Mary Roberts Rinehart (August 12, 1876-September 22, 1958) was a prolific author often called the American Agatha Christie.[1] She is considered the source of the phrase "The butler did it", although she did not actually use the phrase herself, and also considered to have invented the "Had-I-But-Known" school of mystery writing.... Rinehart wrote hundreds of short stories, poems, travelogues and special articles. Many of her books and plays, such as The Bat (1920) were adapted for movies, such as The Bat (1926), The Bat Whispers (1930), and The Bat (1959). While many of her books were best-sellers, critics were most appreciative of her murder mysteries. Rinehart, in The Circular Staircase (1908), is credited with inventing the "Had-I-But-Known" school of mystery writing. The Circular Staircase is a novel in which "a middle-aged spinster is persuaded by her niece and nephew to rent a country house for the summer. The house they choose belonged to a bank defaulter who had hidden stolen securities in the walls. The gentle, peace-loving trio is plunged into a series of crimes solved with the help of the aunt. This novel is credited with being the first in the "Had-I-But-Known" school."[3] The Had-I-But-Known mystery novel is one where the principal character (frequently female) does less than sensible things in connection with a crime which have the effect of prolonging the action of the novel. Ogden Nash parodied the school in his poem Don't Guess Let Me Tell You: "Sometimes the Had I But Known then what I know now I could have saved at least three lives by revealing to the Inspector the conversation I heard through that fortuitous hole in the floor." The phrase "The butler did it", which has become a cliché, came from Rinehart's novel The Door, in which the butler actually did do it, although that exact phrase does not actually appear in the work."
