The year is 1794. A young nobleman, Eric Three Roses, languishes in hospital. Some think he would be just at home in the madhouse across the road. Ridden with guilt, he spends his nights writing down memories of his lost love who died on their wedding night. Her mother also mourns her and when no one listens to her suspicions, she begs the aid of the only person who will listen: Jean Mickel Cardell, the one-armed watchman. Cecil Winge is six months in the ground but when his younger brother Emil seeks out the watchman to retrieve his brother's missing pocket watch, Cardell enlists his help to discover what really happened at Three Roses' estate that night. But, unlike his dead brother, the younger Winge is an enigma, and Cardell soon realises that he may be more hindrance than help. And when they discover that a mysterious slave trader has been running Three Roses' affairs, it is a race against time to discover the truth before it's too late. In 1794, the second installment of Niklas Natt och Dag's historical noir trilogy, we are reunited with Mickel Cardell, Anna Stina Knapp, and the bustling world of late eighteenth century Stockholm ...

''A remarkable debut novel'' Sunday Times''The best historical thriller I''ve read in twenty years'' A.J. Finn''A thrilling, unnerving, clever and beautiful story. Reading it is like giving a little gift to oneself'' Fredrik BackmanThe year is 1793, Stockholm. King Gustav of Sweden has been assassinated, years of foreign wars have emptied the treasuries, and the realm is governed by a self-interested elite, leaving its citizens to suffer. On the streets, malcontent and paranoia abound.A body is found in the city''s swamp by a watchman, Mickel Cardell, and the case is handed over to investigator Cecil Winge, who is dying of consumption. Together, Winge and Cardell become embroiled in a brutal world of guttersnipes and thieves, mercenaries and madams, and one death will expose a city rotten with corruption beneath its powdered and painted veneer.The Wolf and the Watchman depicts the capacity for cruelty in the name of survival or greed - but also the capacity for love, friendship, and the desire for a better world.

1795 je závěrečným dílem historické noir trilogie. Tycho Ceton se plíží městem jako raněné zvíře a spřádá plány, jak znovu nabýt důstojnost, o niž ho připravili. Rozpoutá takový chaos, jaký v podivuhodném i zkaženém městě Stockholmu ještě nezažili. Emil Winge je odhodlán Cetonovo řádění zastavit. Nemá však nikde zastání - mocní, stíháni paranoidními obavami ze spiknutí, mají jiné starosti a Mickela Cardella zaměstnává pátrání po Anně Stině Knappové, která po smrti svých dětí zmizela beze stopy. "Niklas Natt och Dag je vynikající vypravěč (…) nikdo před ním nedokázal popsat 18. století tak živě, jazykem, jenž dýchá starobylostí, a přesto zůstává srozumitelný. (…) Niklas Natt och Dag napsal výjimečnou trilogii, působivé historické líčení a zároveň neuvěřitelně napínavou, krvavou detektivku. - Dagens Nyheter, Sweden

Audiokniha: Seberte kuráž a přestaňte si namlouvat, že peklo jsou ti druzí. Celé je to Sodoma! Požár hornsbergetského sirotčince skoncoval s nadějemi, že peklo ve Stockholmu končí a strážci zbytků jeho soudnosti se vybabrali z nejhoršího. Naopak. „Město mostů“ je prostě Sodoma Severu, takže podlý libertin – a chvílemi i užitečný blbec – Tychon Ceton už místním zpovykancům chystá radovánky, nad jejichž ukrutností by bledl i markýz de Sade. Jenže pletichář není v bezpečí ani v rouše beránčím. Pasou po něm mstitelé, kteří ho div neměli na lopatě: zarputilý chromajzl Mickell Cardell, jenž má sám máslo na hlavě, a Emil Winge, nejen brilantní mozek rodící se policie, ale taky pavouk, co má o kolečko víc. Zatímco spolu nahánějí ďábla v labyrintu hrůzy, někde stranou úpí pohřešovaná chuděra Anna Stina. O batolátka tragicky přišla a není si jistá životem, neboť jako jediná osoba mimo okruh spiklenců zná tajemství, jež by řádně provětralo poměry v zahnívající říši Gustava IV. Adolfa. Kostky jsou tudíž vrženy na hnojiště, jehož dno snad nebere konce. A „honicí psi“ musejí mít v záloze finty ještě drsnější, aby odhalili, kdo tu skutečně tahá za nitky.

Recreate the action and drama of 17th Century warfare on your tabletop with The Pikeman’s Lament. Start by creating your Officer – is he a natural leader raised from the ranks, the youngest son of a noble family, or an old veteran who has seen too many battles? As you campaign, your Officer will win honour and gain promotion, acquiring traits that may help lead his men to victory. Before each skirmish, your Officer must raise his Company from a wide range of unit options – should he lean towards hard-hitting heavy cavalry or favour solid, defensively minded infantry? Companies are typically formed from 6–8 units, each made up of either 6 or 12 figures, and quick, decisive, and dramatic games are the order of the day. With core mechanics based on Daniel Mersey’s popular Lion Rampant rules, The Pikeman’s Lament captures the military flavour of the 17th Century, and allows you to recreate skirmishes and raids from conflicts such as the Thirty Years’ War, the English Civil Wars, and the Great Northern War.

Is it time to reaffirm our liberal values? Or are we seeing the birth-pangs of a new era? Two great thinkers debate the question burning behind headlines across the world. ‘No civilization, no matter how mighty it may appear to itself, is indestructible.’–Niall Ferguson‘We do not need to invent the world anew. The international order established by the United States after World War II is in need of expansion and repair, but not reconception.’–Fareed ZakariaFears of a globalized world are rampant. Across the West, borders are being reasserted and old alliances tested to their limits. Could this be the end of the liberal order or will the major crises of the twenty-first century strengthen our resolve?

This booklet contains the prayers said by Orthodox Christians celebrating a service of supplication or intercession—a Moleben—on behalf of the living, according to the Slavic tradition. A Moleben may be served on any occasion to invoke the aid of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Mother of God, or the saints. The book includes the unique order of the Paschal Moleben, served during Bright Week. The book also contains the Panikhida, a memorial service to pray for the blessed repose and salvation of the departed. Traditionally the memorial service is said for an individual at their death and on the third, ninth and fortieth day after their death as well as six months after, and on the first anniversary of their death. The texts are taken from the “Jordanville” Prayer Book and arranged to match the usage of Holy Trinity Monastery in Jordanville, New York.

The epic history of world order, revealing how the decline of the West may be a good thing for its future. Since the dawn of the twenty-first century, the West has been in crisis. Social unrest, political polarization, and the rise of other great powers - especially China - threaten to unravel today''s Western-led world order. Many fear this would lead to global chaos. But this is a Western illusion. Surveying five thousand years of global history, political scientist Amitav Acharya reveals that world order existed long before the rise of the West. Moving from ancient Sumer, India, Greece, and Mesoamerica, through medieval caliphates and Eurasian empires into the present, Acharya shows that humanitarian values, economic interdependence, and rules of inter-state conduct emerged across the globe over millennia. History suggests order will endure even as the West retreats. Instead of fearing the future, the West should learn from history and cooperate with the Rest to forge a more equitable order.

Time is a mystery that does not cease to puzzle us. Philosophers, artists and poets have long explored its meaning while scientists have found that its structure is different from the simple intuition we have of it. From Boltzmann to quantum theory, from Einstein to loop quantum gravity, our understanding of time has been undergoing radical transformations. Time flows at a different speed in different places, the past and the future differ far less than we might think, and the very notion of the present evaporates in the vast universe. With his extraordinary charm and sense of wonder, bringing together science, art and philosophy, Carlo Rovelli unravels this mystery, inviting us to imagine a world where time is in us and we are not in time.

An essential work from scholar and rhetorician Richard Weaver, a leading figure in the rise of the modern conservative intellectual movement."In these valuable essays Weaver shows how the decline of the West is traceable to the loss of its ordering vision, and analyzes the forces that have contributed to that loss." - National Review"Visions of Order has attracted a large and growing body of admirers... This should not be surprising. The book includes several of Weaver''s best essays... and its analyses of the nature of culture, the limits of science and technology, and the relationship between rhetoric and dialectic are of profound and lasting significance" - Ted J.
