This is the second story from incredible author–illustrator Ashling Lindsay after An Unexpected Thing in 2022, shortlisted for the Academy of British Book Cover Design Award.Pip lived all alone on one side of a beautiful, wide valley. And he had absolutely everything he needed. Every morning he drank his tea, watered his plants and checked his post box for letters. And every night, he sat and looked out into the deep dark sky at the planets, comets and stars. And sometimes it made him feel quite small. Until one day, a leaf fluttered in through Pip’s open window. He looked at it. It was not an ordinary leaf—it certainly didn’t belong to any of the trees on his side of the valley. It shimmered and shone in the sunlight and was unlike anything Pip had ever seen before! But where did it come from? Pip peered out of his window and wondered... maybe there was something more on the other side of the Valley after all. This is a meaningful picture book all about travel, exploration and trying new things, encouraging little ones who may be stuck in their ways to venture out of their comfort zones.

Policejní komisař Jan Fabel je po matce Skot a po otci Frís z pobřeží Severního moře. Z přístavního Hamburku, kde vede místní mordpartu, přijíždí řešit případ podivných vražd do Kolína nad Rýnem, velkoměsta pod věžemi obří gotické katedrály. Kolín je proslulý svým zimním karnevalem, který jako by se svou divokostí hodil spíš do Jižní Ameriky než do Porýní. A v posledních letech má karneval vždycky svou oběť - uškrcenou mladou ženu, z jejíhož těla si vrah odnesl kus pečlivě vyříznutého masa... V Kolíně nad Rýnem žije pod cizím jménem i kdysi sovětský důstojník u speciálních jednotek, nyní ukrajinský gangster Vasyl Vitrenko, velkoobchodník s lidmi a organizátor vražd. Jeden z nejhledanějších zločinců Evropy. Jan Fabel zprvu vůbec nepočítá s tím, že se vedle fantoma karnevalu střetne i s obávaným Vitrenkem, ale dojde k tomu a hamburský detektiv je nakonec ve dvojím ohni... V thrilleru Fantom karnevalu, který byl přeložen do více než dvaceti jazyků, došel spisovatel Craig Russell k vrcholům žánru, k němuž patří napětí, záhady a zmařené životy, stejně jako drobnokresba nejrůznějších situací a povah lidí, kteří se v nich ocitnou. Stačí ostatně rozevřít knížku a číst: už na prvních stránkách hledí v kolínském Starém městě dívka do očí bizarně oblečeného, děsivého klauna a jen o něco dál se za sklem v luxusním baru ukrývá zlo v lidské podobě...

Bertrand Russell’s study of the philosopher and mathematician Gottfried Leibniz is one of his earliest books, providing a fascinating glimpse of his philosophical brilliance. It remains one of the most important books on this polymathic seventeenth-century thinker and the only book Russell wrote about a major philosopher.Written when Russell was only in his late twenties, it goes far beyond a mere exposition of Leibniz s thought. Celebrated for his invention of the differential calculus and a major figure in the development of rationalist philosophy, Leibniz is hailed by many as the last universal genius. Russell argues that the tension between Leibniz s theological writings for the Hanoverian royalty on the one hand and his philosophical work on the other obscures, in Russell s opinion, Leibniz s greatest gift to philosophy: the view that logic is the start of all philosophy.Exploring Leibniz s contributions to epistemology, substance, space and time, the soul and body, and the existence of God, Russell pushes philosophy and logical thought in bold new directions. It remains a vital work in Russell s oeuvre and a landmark study of a major philosopher.This Routledge Classics Edition has a new Foreword by Richard T. W. Arthur.

Glasgow padesátých let minulého století je město prorostlé zločinem. Mezi policisty a zločinci není vlastně žádný rozdíl a soukromý detektiv Lennox, drsný chlap, který kdysi sloužil v armádě, se zaplétá s oběma stranami. Ve světě prostitutek, kmotrů, nájemných vrahů a zkorumpovaných strážců zákona je jako doma. Když se však nechá najmout, aby vyšetřil vraždu bratrů-dvojčat McGahernových, kteří mají na rukou větší než malé množství krve, zjistí, že se pustil do příliš vysoké hry. Jenže vycouvat už se nedá a Lennox je nucen obezřetně manévrovat mezi třemi podivínskými a svéráznými muži vládnoucími glasgowskému podsvětí. Jeho cesta za odhalením tajemství vraždy zločinných dvojčat je plná překvapivých zákrutů, lemují ji gangsteři všeho druhu i krásné a leckdy osudové ženy a na jejím konci čeká jistá smrt... Thriller skotského spisovatele Craiga Russella (v nakladatelství Daranus vyšly jeho romány Krvavý orel, Vraždy podle Grimmů a Převtělený mstitel) je plný napětí a nečekaných zvratů a prosycuje ho temná atmosféra Glasgowa, města ponořeného do věčné mlhy. Brilantně vyprávěný příběh ocení nejen ti, kteří propadli kouzlu románů Raymonda Chandlera, k jehož odkazu se Russell ve své knize hlásí. Lennox a králové podsvětí patří k tomu nejlepšímu, co nabízí žánr neo noir, který právě zažívá mimořádný boom.
