On Tuesday morning, 23rd September 1975, the corpses of three unmarried siblings, last surviving members of the ancient Luxton clan of Winkleigh, North Devon, were found on their remote farm. All three had had their heads blown off. Robbie s cheeks and neck had been stabbed; Frances had a broken leg. Strangely, each of the four doors to the house had been locked from the inside.The Luxtons idyllic farm on a stretch of lush countryside between Exmoor and Dartmoor had been lovingly tended with outdated methods. There were rumours of a thwarted betrothal, wrangles over money and property, generational feuds in the extended family, bouts of insanity and extreme miserliness.John Cornwell s classic investigation into the violent deaths of these unhappy siblings told a story of a farming family struggling under unbearable practical and emotional pressures, their violent deaths, the police investigation and the proceedings of the inquest. The official verdict was that there had been a suicide pact, but Cornwell decided to revisit the evidence forty years after Earth to Earth was first published, and he finds that there were anomalies in the evidence suggesting alternative, criminal scenarios, and the misery that preceded these savage deaths suggested even darker elements.Were the Luxtons scapegoats of local malice, or victims of a murderous family conflict, stricken by a dire ancestral curse?This new edition of a true crime classic includes a postscript in which the author describes the extraordinary lengths that the great poet Ted Hughes, a neighbour of the Luxtons, went to try and suppress publication of the book.

Some of the stories include: - A trader who turned an initial account of $2,500 into $50 million. - A trader who achieved an average annual return of 337% over a 13-year period. - A trader who made tens of millions using a unique approach that employed neither fundamental nor technical analysis. - A former advertising executive who used classical chart analysis to achieve a 58% average annual return over a 27-year trading span. - A promising junior tennis player in the UK who abandoned his quest for a professional sporting career for trading and generated a nine-year track record with an average annual return just under 300%. World-renowned author and trading expert Jack D. Schwager is our guide. His trademark knowledgeable and sensitive interview style encourages the Wizards to reveal the fascinating details of their training, experience, tactics, strategies, and their best and worst trades. There are dashes of humour and revelations about the human side of trading throughout.

Audiokniha: Nevěří v Boha ani svého krále, přesto na něm závisí osud křesťanského království… Mladý northumbrijský velmož Uhtred z Bebbanburgu pomohl Sasům zvítězit nad vikinskými nájezdníky v bitvě u Cynuitu, během níž vlastnoručně připravil o život obávaného válečníka Ubbu Lothbroksona. Nyní však západosaské království Wessex čelí novému přílivu krvelačných Dánů, který zažene krále Alfreda a jeho věrné až do nepřístupných bažin, kde jsou nuceni skrývat se před nepřáteli jako nějací psanci. Zbožný panovník usilující o sjednocení Anglie, jemuž historie dala přídomek Veliký, se však nevzdává a pomalu shromažďuje vojsko, s nímž chce pohanské vetřelce vyhnat ze své země. Uhtred hraje v jeho plánech klíčovou roli, jejich vztah ovšem není zrovna ideální – horkokrevný mladý válečník totiž chová více sympatií k divokým Seveřanům než ke svému králi, který spíše než středověkého rytíře připomíná křesťanského světce. Jemu však přísahal věrnost a také by jednou rád získal zpět své panství, k čemuž by mu mohl dopomoci právě Alfred. Tedy pokud nad dánskou přesilou dokáže s Boží pomocí zvítězit… Pokračování dobrodružné ságy z raně středověké Anglie, která se stala předlohou úspěšného seriálu Poslední království. „Meče, štíty, bahno a krev. V rukou mistra skvělé rekvizity.“ – Kirkus Reviews. „Tak důmyslně a energicky odvyprávěné historické příběhy, jaké píše Cornwell, jsou nedostatkovým zbožím.“ – Bill Sheehan, The Washington Post.

Audiokniha: „Vedl mě osud. Psal se rok osmistý sedmdesátý osmý, bylo mi jednadvacet let a věřil jsem, že jsem schopen dosáhnout svým mečem všeho na světě…“ Po vítězství v bitvě u Ethandunu má Uhtred z Bebbanburgu věru co slavit: šiky nepřátelských nájezdníků byly rozprášeny a Alfredovo království Wessex přežilo z nemalé části právě jeho přičiněním. Srdnatý mladík však nezapomíná na křivdy, které mu kdysi způsobil zlovolný strýc Ælfric, a míří proto do Northumbrie, aby se pomstil za útrapy v útlém dětství. Jenže býčí odhodlání ani rytířská horkokrevnost nebudou bijci nic platné, poleví-li v ostražitosti. Ironií osudu namísto na bebbanburský trůn usedá k veslu otrokářského plavidla, z nějž očividně nelze uniknout jinak než coby mrtvola hozená přes palubu. Uhtred si však umanul v plánu vytrvat a pátrá, kde nechal tesař díru. A poštěstí se mu. Schyluje se totiž k další řeži, která může rozhodnout o osudu Anglie – a u té on rozhodně nehodlá chybět… Třetí díl dobrodružné ságy z raně středověké Anglie, která se stala předlohou úspěšného televizního seriálu Poslední království. „Cornwell opět potvrzuje, že historické fikci kraluje.

V časech, které zobrazuje, by byl jeho tvůrce nejžádanějším bavičem Alfredova dvora.“ – Daily Mail. „Vskutku mimořádné vyprávění se zakládá na velmi podrobném průzkumu mentality anglosaské éry. – Observer. „Autor vytahuje na světlo přízraky historie devátého století a obaluje jejich kostry novým, živým masem. Díky němu je svět krále Alfreda znovu obnoven, dokonale podložen a s vášní mistra vypravěče také barvitě vykreslen.“ – Justin Pollard, autor knihy Alfréd Veliký.
