IF THESE STONES COULD SPEAK . . . THEY WOULD CALL FOR WAR. In Shiang, the young king rules without dissent. Mazer swordsmen stand watch on every corner, looking for the first sign of rebellion. This city is a place of quiet and slow dignity, like a man eating rice with a razor pressed against his throat. Yet with one sharp movement, order is overturned. The balance of centuries is undone in the sudden spill of blood - and in the darkness, something terrible returns to Shiang. Far to the west, four Shiang masters approach the city walls of Darien. The sword saint and his companions have crossed a continent to bring an old man home for punishment. They will not be denied, even if the whole city stands in their way. TWO ANCIENT CITIES. ONE FINAL WAR.

Rome's great hero Julius Caesar has been brutally murdered by his most trusted allies. While these self-appointed Liberatores seek refuge in the senate, they have underestimated one man: Caesar's adopted son Octavian, a man whose name will echo through history as Augustus Caesar. Uniting with his great rival Mark Antony, Octavian will stop at nothing to seek retribution from the traitors and avenge his father's death. His greatest hatred is reserved for Brutus, Caesar's childhood friend and greatest ally, now leader of the conspirators. As the people take to the streets of Rome, the Liberatores must face their fate. Some flee the city; others will not escape mob justice. Not a single one will die a natural death. And the reckoning will come for Brutus on the sweeping battlefield at Philippi.

Doba mýtov a legiend ustúpila svetu mužov, Perikles bol vždy v tieni svojho otca, muža, ktorý kedysi zachránil Atény. Keď nastane čas, aby sa postavil sám za seba, musí sa vrhnúť do klamárskeho brlohu aténskej politiky a vzoprieť sa svojim rivalom, nepriateľom i priateľom. Samotné slová však vodcu nerobia. Za Periklom leží najväčšie mesto starovekého sveta, pred ním, na mori aj súši, neľútostná perzská armáda. Mladý Perikles vie len jedno – pokiaľ chce vyhrať vojnu, musí nastoliť mier. Je čas, aby povstal hrdina a aby sa jeho nepriatelia triasli. A aby Atény, mesto múdrosti a bojovníkov, zažiarili slávou, pretože v čase núdze musia byť aténski bojovníci levmi.

Jeden z najlepších súčasných autorov historickej fikcie Conn Iggulden oživuje vo svojom najnovšom románe Brány do Atén slávnu časť gréckych dejín, keď sa zoči-voči perzskej invázii rozhodovalo o bytí či nebytí Grécka – kolísky európskej civilizácie. V roku 490 pred n. l. vládne v obrovskej perzskej ríši mocný kráľ Dareios. Nik sa mu neodváži postaviť na odpor okrem spurných gréckych mestských štátov, ktoré sa otvorene odmietajú skloniť pred jeho autoritou. Napokon Dareios vypláva s veľkým loďstvom proti Aténam. Aténčania však len krátko predtým zvrhli vládu tyranov, nastolili vo svojom meste demokraciu a za žiadnych okolností nie sú ochotní podriadiť sa svojvôli jedného človeka.Keď Dareiovo vojsko vystúpi na breh na maratónskej pláni neďaleko Atén, čakajú ho šíky na všetko odhodlaných aténskych hoplitov. Nasledujúca bitka rozhodne nielen o osude celého Grécka, ale aj o osude strojcov gréckeho víťazstva – charizmatického Temistokla, múdreho a čestného Aristeida a slávneho vodcu Xantippa.O desať rokov neskôr mieri ku gréckym brehom ďalší perzský kráľ Xerxes, aby pomstil otcovu porážku. Napriek obrovskej vojenskej prevahe na mori i na súši narazí na odpor oveľa menšieho počtu gréckych vojakov odhodlaných bojovať na život a na smrť a ubrániť Termopylský priesmyk aj morskú úžinu pri Salamíne, ktoré chránia vstup do Atén.Bude bojový duch a statočnosť tejto hŕstky stačiť na záchranu slobody a demokracie, hodnôt, ktoré si Gréci cenia viac než vlastný život, alebo ju rozdrvia hordy valiacich sa nepriateľov?

The world of spas at the end of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, when the emperor, the aristocracy and famous visitors from all over Europe would take the waters, is long gone. Elegant ladies and gentlemen would come to these towns for health, diversion, amusement and tranquillity. This country's many smaller and lesser-known spas offered seclusion and relaxation, while the beautiful promenades, cafés and casinos of Karlovy Vary, Mariánské Lázně and Františkovy Lázně offered entertainment, conviviality and romance. All of this was captured by photographers whose pictures can now take us back to a lost world. Die Welt der Kurbäder gegen Ende der Österreichisch-Ungarischen Monarchie, als bedeutende Persönlichkeiten aus ganz Europa zu den Heilquellen strömten, gehört schon lange der Vergangenheit an. Elegante Damen und Herren waren hier nicht nur auf der Suche nach Gesundheit, sondern auch nach Entspannung, Unterhaltung und Ruhe. Etliche kleinere und weniger bekannte böhmische Kurorte boten ruhige Plätze und Erholungsmöglichkeiten. Wunderbare Promenaden, Cafés und Casinos in Karlsbad, Marienbad oder Franzensbad luden hingegen zur Unterhaltung ein und boten Gelegenheiten, neue Freundschaften zu knüpfen oder sogar romantische Bekanntschaften schliesssen. All dies wurde von den Augen der Fotografen achtsam mitverfolgt, deren Aufnahmen uns heute ein einzigartigen Zeugnis über diese verlorene Welt von Gestern gewähren.

A brand-new translation of a philosophical classic of the ancient world, The Teaching of Ptahhatp, written in Egypt 4,000 years ago. The Teaching of Ptahhatp, composed two millennia before the birth of Plato, is the oldest surviving statement of philosophy in the ancient world and the earliest witness to the power of the written word. It ought to begin the list of the world's philosophy classics, yet it has been largely forgotten since it was rediscovered in the nineteenth century.Egyptologist Bill Manley's new translation corrects this oversight, rendering into approachable modern English for the first time Ptahhatp's profound yet practical account of 'the meaning of life', written many centuries before the supposed dawn of western philosophy. Manley introduces Ptahhatp, who served as Vizier to the Old Kingdom pharaoh Izezi (c. 2410-2375 BC), and the world of dynamic ideas and new technologies - writing among them - within which he worked, illuminating the nuances of his language and philosophy.In addition, Manley's new translation of Why Things Happen, the oldest surviving account of creation from anywhere in the world, reveals how Ptahhatp's account of the human condition is founded in distinctive ancient Egyptian beliefs about the nature of truth and reality. Taken together, Manley's new translations and expert commentary provide a new perspective on the Pyramid Age and overturn traditional prejudices about the origins of writing and philosophy. The 'oldest book in the world' is a testament to a common thread that connects humanity across time; Ptahhatp grapples with the pitfalls of greed, ambition, celebrity, success, confrontation, friendship, sex and even the office environment, and his teachings remain remarkably relevant in the modern day.

Thrall, wise shaman and the war chief of the Horde, has sensed a disturbing change . . . Long ago, Azeroth's destructive native elementals raged across the world until the benevolent titans imprisoned them within the Elemental Plane. Despite the titans' intervention, many elementals have ended up back on Azeroth. Over the ages, shaman like Thrall have communed with these spirits and, through patience and dedication, learned to soothe roaring infernos, bring rain to sun-scorched lands, and otherwise temper the elementals' ruinous influence on the world of Azeroth. Now Thrall has discovered that the elementals no longer heed the shaman's call.While Thrall seeks answers to what ails the confused elements, he also wrestles with the orcs' precarious future as his people face dwindling supplies and growing hostility with their night elf neighbours. The fate of Azeroth's great races is shrouded in a fog of uncertainty, and the erratic behaviour of the elemental spirits, troubling though it is, may only be the first ominous warning sign of the cataclysm to come.

'A tour de force of accessible scholarship' The Guardian'Impressive ... It is a complicated story that still reverberates, and Gingeras narrates it with lucid authority' New StatesmanThe Ottoman Empire had been one of the major facts in European history since the Middle Ages. Stretching from the Adriatic to the Indian Ocean, the Empire was both a great political entity and a religious one, with the Sultan ruling over the Holy Sites and, as Caliph, the successor to Mohammed.Yet the Empire's fateful decision to support Germany and Austria-Hungary in 1914 doomed it to disaster, breaking it up into a series of European colonies and what emerged as an independent Saudi Arabia. Ryan Gingeras's superb new book explains how these epochal events came about and shows how much we still live in the shadow of decisions taken so long ago. Would all of the Empire fall to marauding Allied armies, or could something be saved? In such an ethnically and religiously entangled region, what would be the price paid to create a cohesive and independent new state? The story of the creation of modern Turkey is an extraordinary, bitter epic, brilliantly told here.

In the tradition of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, a stunningly vivid historical account of the forty-year battle between Comanche Indians and white settlers for control of the American West, centering on Quanah, the greatest Comanche chief of them all. Empire of the Summer Moon spans two astonishing stories. The first traces the rise and fall of the Comanches, the most powerful Indian tribe in American history. The second is the epic saga of the pioneer woman Cynthia Ann Parker and her mixed-blood son Quanah, who became the last and greatest chief of the Comanches. Although readers may be more familiar with the tribal names Apache and Sioux, it was in fact the legendary fighting ability of the Comanches that determined just how and when the American West opened up. Comanche boys became adept bareback riders by age six; full Comanche braves were considered the best horsemen who ever rode. They were so masterful at war and so skillful with their arrows and lances that they stopped the northern drive of colonial Spain from Mexico and halted the French expansion westward from Louisiana. White settlers arriving in Texas from the eastern United States were surprised to find the frontier being rolled backward by Comanches incensed by the invasion of their tribal lands. Against this backdrop Gwynne presents the compelling drama of Cynthia Ann Parker, a nine-year-old girl who was kidnapped by Comanches in 1836. She grew to love her captors and became infamous as the "White Squaw" who refused to return until her tragic capture by Texas Rangers in 1860. More famous still was her son Quanah, a warrior who was never defeated and whose guerrilla wars in the Texas Panhandle made him a legend. S. C. Gwynne''s account of these events is meticulously researched, intellectually provocative, and, above all, thrillingly told.
