Dílna Mercedes Thompsonové, hlavní hrdinky skvělé urban fantasy série Patricie Briggsové, je po ničivém zásahu boha sopek stále mimo provoz, avšak to neznamená, že se kojotí automechanička a s ní i natěšení čtenáři budou nudit...Mercy Thompsonová je oslavována jako hrdinka, která nepřestává růst a přesto zůstává věrná sama sobě. A nyní je zpátky a brzy zjistí, že když se fae rozhodnou ublížit lidem, nejvíce trpí děti… Napětí mezi fae a lidmi vrcholí. A když jsou kojotí kožoměnkyně Mercy a její druh, alfa vlkodlak Adam, povoláni zastavit zuřícího trolla, padne jim do rukou něco, čím by bylo možné donutit fae stáhnout se a zastavit otevřenou válku: lidské dítě, které fae kdysi dávno ukradli. Mercy, Adam a jejich smečka se však rozhodnou vzepřít se nejmocnějšímu vlkodlakovi v zemi, lidem i fae a ochránit chlapce za každou cenu. Kdo ale ochrání je samotné před chlapcem s ohnivým dotykemFae rozehrávají nebezpečnou partii. Své rezervace maskují prvotřídní matoucí magií, ovšem když se rozhodnou z nich něco vypustit, stojí to za to. Po útoku děsivé obludy na visutém mostě se opět ukáže, že Mercy jedná rychle, ne vždy svá rozhodnutí konzultuje s Adamem a zbytkem smečky a často při tom přemýšlí spíš srdcem. Ne všichni její soukmenovci to ale cítí stejně. Někteří jí ještě neodpustili, že přijala do smečky děsivého tibicenu, a nyní bude v jejich domě pobývat i další nevšední návštěvník - chlapec s ohnivým dotykem. Ohněm dotčený chlapec se tváří jako dítě, ačkoli strávil na světě několik set let. A jeho dotyk? Zatraceně pálí. Ale především: fae o něj stojí víc, než se Mercy a jejím blízkým líbí. Těšte se na staré známé postavy, nevyzpytatelné bytosti, záhadnou a nevypočitatelnou Pod Kopcem a především na Mercy. Zkrátka a dobře, Patricie Briggs je zpět se svou nejslavnější sérií a opět sází na osvědčené ingredience, které jí získaly zástupy fanoušků po celém světě: dramatický příběh, sestavu svébytných postav s atraktivním propletencem vzájemných vztahů, humor a řadu neotřelých nápadů.

An essay with the reach and momentum of a novel, Kate Briggs s THIS LITTLE ART is a genre-bending song for the practice of literary translation, offering fresh, fierce and timely thinking on reading, writing and living with the works of others. Taking her own experience of translating Roland Barthes s lecture notes as a starting point, the author threads various stories together to give us this portrait of translation as a compelling, complex and intensely relational activity. She recounts the story of Helen Lowe-Porter s translations of Thomas Mann, and their posthumous vilification. She writes about the loving relationship between Andre Gide and his translator Dorothy Bussy. She recalls how Robinson Crusoe laboriously made a table, for him for the first time, on an undeserted island. With THIS LITTLE ART, a beautifully layered account of a subjective translating experience, Kate Briggs emerges as a truly remarkable writer: distinctive, wise, frank, funny and utterly original.

*The original book behind the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (R) (MBTI (R)) test*Like a thumbprint, personality type provides an instant snapshot of a person s uniqueness. Drawing on concepts originated by Carl Jung, this book distinguishes four categories of personality styles and shows how these qualities determine the way you perceive the world and come to conclusions about what you ve seen. It then explains what they mean for your success in school, at a job, in a career and in your personal relationships.For more than 60 years, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) tool has been the most widely used instrument in the world for determining personality type, and for more than 25 years, Gifts Differing has been the preeminent source for understanding it.

Lost Dundee brings the second city of renaissance Scotland back to life showing, through previously undiscovered photographs and drawings, the life and the maritime quarter of this great port. It illustrates Dundee s transformation into a major Georgian town at the centre of the flax trade between St Petersburg and the USA, with the development of major public buildings a result of the influx of wealth into the region. This book goes on to examine Dundee s next transformation into the jute capital of the world. Its identity was transformed by the arrival of railways, which separated the town from the sea, and by the great mills and factories which engulfed it on both sides. The pressures upon medieval Dundee proved so great that in 1871 the process of replacing it with grandiose Victorian boulevards began.The final section illustrates the changes wrought in the twentieth century with the death of jute and its replacement as the city s major employer by tertiary education.This book draws particularly upon the rich visual history sources of Charles Lawson s drawings of old Dundee in the Central Library, the DC Thomson photographic collection, and the University of Dundee Archives. Essential to the understanding of this constantly re-generating city, this book contains 150 drawings, photographs and plans of Dundee.

Co-authored by regional expert Sean Connolly and Philip Briggs, the world s foremost guidebook writer on Africa, this third edition of Bradt s The Gambia remains the most comprehensive guide available to mainland Africa s smallest country. This new edition integrates recent developments, from recently opened restaurants and hotels to the new roads and bridges that make circumnavigating the country easier than ever. The guide provides detailed coverage of ecolodges and camps, information on festivals, music workshops and opportunities to experience local culture, plus advice about birdwatching possibilities in a country popular with first-time birders to Africa. As well as encompassing popular coastal resorts, the guide provides information required to explore the relatively undeveloped interior and proposes excursions into neighbouring Senegal, making it ideal for visitors on organised holidays and independent travellers alike.Bradt s The Gambia reveals all the practical information needed to explore this welcoming and safe country (not for nothing is it nicknamed the Smiling Coast ) with its plethora of beach resorts, catering to all tastes and budgets, that line the 80km stretch of tropical coastline running from the capital Banjul to the remote southern border. Small in size but rich in character, The Gambia offers perhaps the closest English-speaking winter sun destination from Europe. Justifiably popular with birdwatchers, the lush mangrove- and jungle-fringed River Gambia is also home to crocodiles, hippos, rehabilitated chimpanzees and various monkeys. The Gambia offers rich heritage tourism for moderately adventurous travellers, from the mysterious megalithic stone circles at Wassu and Ker Batch to fortified Kunta Kinteh (James) Island and the former slave-trading village of Juffureh - the heart of novelist Alex Haley s Roots country and part of two UNESCO World Heritage Sites. And why not enhance your visit further by experiencing colourful local markets, witnessing kankurang spirit masquerades or joining a kayak cruise from the sleepy river port of Janjanbureh, or paying homage to The Gambia s inspiring journey towards democracy and reconciliation at Memory House?All in all, Bradt s The Gambia is the perfect companion for discovering this safe, welcoming and tourist-friendly English-speaking country which provides an ideal short-stay introduction to West Africa s unique atmosphere.

This new ninth edition of Bradt’s Malawi remains the only standalone practical guidebook to this magical southeast African destination produced by a mainstream publisher. Long known as the ‘warm heart of Africa’, thanks to its traditional welcome, Malawi is a small country with a big lake – accounting for around a third of its territory – and, oddly, is the first nation outside Denmark to have a Carlsberg brewery.The guide takes you from the northern Nyika Plateau with its zebra herds to the long lake shore and the easy charm of baobab-studded Likoma Island. Heading south, you come to the capital Lilongwe and nearby Cape Maclear, a low-key resort town with excellent diving and snorkelling. From here you can travel to Liwonde National Park, famed for its abundant elephant and hippo, and the historic town of Zomba, whose high plateau is criss-crossed by hiking trails. Heading south again brings you to Mount Mulanje, the country’s highest peak at 3,002 m.Malawi offers many outstanding adventure opportunities: kayaking on the vast lake amongst dug-out canoes; walking up the Rift Valley escarpment to Livingstonia; and watching the ‘big five’ in wonderful natural surroundings. With the reintroduction of sought-after mammals, including elephants to Nkhotakota Wildlife Reserve and African wild dogs to Liwonde, plus excellent birdwatching, Malawi is a wildlife destination to savour. Also up for discovery are a resurgent music scene (including the Tumaini Festival), intriguing monuments, ancient rock art at Chongoni and compelling village culture. Written by Philip Briggs (arguably the world’s most experienced guidebook author) and updated by Helen Smith (who partly grew up in Malawi), this ninth edition benefits from a brand new, full-colour guide to wildlife and a thorough update of key practical information. Dedicated chapters on background context, health, and flora and fauna are complemented by a 19-chapter breakdown of the country and 38 maps, making this an ideal companion for backpackers, overlanders, wildlife watchers, birdwatchers and other outdoor enthusiasts. From luxury camps to local guesthouses, from rhino trekking to cycle tours. and from crafts to cultural tourism, Bradt’s Malawi covers every aspect of an unforgettable trip to Africa.

James Briggs had never known what David Bowie s Life on Mars? meant. And twenty-five years later with a career stealing his soul, a relationship in stasis and a hairline in furious retreat, life on earth had him cornered. So when a lightning bolt of inspiration strikes, he leaves everything behind to cycle one of the song s lyrics, From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads to discover what life, love and Life on Mars? really mean. What followed was life-affirming, inspirational and often hilarious. Criss-crossing Europe, he visited French chateaus where Bowie recorded, Spanish Olympic stadiums he played, former communist states where his music was banned, and the Berlin Wall he helped topple - all while navigating angry Soviet ballerinas, suspicious village mayors, and an irate Cliff Richard fan. James found kindred spirits and a new love (and occasionally hatred) for cycling as he discovered what happens when, instead of following the crowd, you follow the lyrics and music of the greatest artist of the 20th century. As the world reconsiders its priorities, From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads is a clarion call to embrace the strange, blaze your own path, and live as fearlessly as the Starman himself.

Now into its eighth edition and written by Philip Briggs, the world s leading author of African guidebooks, Bradt s Rwanda has been the go-to guide for visitors to the Land of a Thousand Hills for more than 20 years. Still the only standalone guide in English to this increasingly popular destination, it remains in a class of its own for in-depth information. With fresh research into developments across the country, Bradt s Rwanda includes expanded coverage of Gishwati-Mukura National Park, which opened to tourism in 2021, and up-to-date details of rapidly modernising Kigali, considered Africa s cleanest city. Rwanda continues to change and develop at an unprecedented pace - no country has a higher proportion of female parliamentarians - and there s hardly a more accessible part of Africa. It s no less intriguing for the convenience, however, and Rwanda s superlative natural attractions constantly improve, with growing animal populations, as in Akagera National Park, where Africa s Big Five (rhino, lion, leopard, elephant and buffalo) can be seen.This new edition also includes extensive maps and natural history information, while details of kayak and canoe excursions on Lake Kivu and the Mukungwa River complement advice about staying on tea plantations at Sorwathe or Gisovu. It contains everything you need to know about tracking mountain gorillas in Volcanoes National Park (workplace of primatologist Dian Fossey of Gorillas in the Mist fame) and chimpanzees in Nyungwe National Park (East Africa s largest surviving montane forest, harbouring numerous endemic birds and primates) and Gishwati-Mukura (which is also the only location for the rare golden monkey outside the Virunga mountains). Also covered are Nyanza, with its hilltop Rukari King s Palace Museum, and the Ethnographic Museum of Rwanda, the top cultural site in Butare (Huye). A chapter on nearby cities and national parks provides key necessary information to take an excursion into neighbouring DRC, including how to see lowland gorillas. As not only the most in-depth guide available in English, but also the guide with the longest history in the country itself, Bradt s Rwanda is the indispensable companion for visitors, including wildlife enthusiasts and Africa aficionados.

This new, thoroughly updated ninth edition of Bradt s Ghana remains the only dedicated guidebook to this beguiling country - and the most comprehensive source of travel information about it. One of West Africa s few English-speaking nations, the first country in sub-Saharan Africa to gain independence and the world s second-largest producer of chocolate, Ghana is friendly, safe and inexpensive, making it an ideal destination for first-time visitors to the continent. Ghana is a country more about experiencing the unique and authentic than ticking off a series of boxes. Although smaller than the UK, it is rich in little-visited national parks, forest reserves, cultural sites and scenic waterfalls, and is blessed with bleached-white beaches and lush rainforest along 550 kilometres of Atlantic coastline. Written by Philip Briggs, arguably the world s most experienced guidebook writer, and updated by a travel writer specialising in Africa, Bradt s Ghana guidebook provides everything you need to know to plan and enjoy your trip. Its coverage ranges from inexpensive opportunities to see wildlife to cultural and historical aspects, from the solemnity of the slave dungeons at Elmina s UNESCO-listed castle to villages near its remote and sparsely populated northern border with Burkina Faso. Twenty-two chapters across five regional sections are complemented by extensive background and practical information, plus a fully illustrated wildlife chapter. With Bradt s Ghana, you can explore the popular Cape Coast or the Ashanti region, marvel at elephants while on a walking safari in Mole National Park, join locals aboard an aging steamer plying Lake Volta (the world s largest man-made reservoir, no less), enjoy creativity at the high-profile Chale Wote Street Art festival or party night-long in the glittering Osu district of the national capital, Accra. Fresh elements of this edition include Winneba s Pan-African Heritage Museum, Zimmaziwo Snake Village, several waterfalls, Sesiamang Sisi Stone City, Mim Bour Mountains, Wariyanga mud mosque and the Sankana Chief s Palace. No matter what your interests are, this new, ninth edition of Bradt s Ghana is an unrivalled companion for everyone from first-time travellers to Africa to seasoned explorers and those spending prolonged periods in the country.

A comprehensive critical companion to the blockbuster TV show LOST, revisiting its core themes, lore, and impact on culture For fans of one of the most successful and highly discussed shows in recent memory, LOST: Back to the Island is both a delightful time capsule and a rousing work of entertainment criticism. Before it premiered in the fall of 2004, LOST looked doomed to be an expensive, disastrous plane crash of a TV show. Instead, LOST was a massive hit, debuting with the biggest audience for a new drama on ABC in over a decade, reaching heights of over 23 million viewers at its peak, and holding on to a hefty fan-base for its entire six-season run. The elements that made the series seem like a boondoggle proved, instead, to be a big part of its appeal. Audiences loved the exotic island setting, became invested in the morally compromised characters, and feverishly tried to unravel the show’s many mysteries. In LOST: Back to the Island, TV critics and veteran LOST recappers Emily St. James and Noel Murray revisit what made the show such a success and an object of enduring cultural obsession, twenty years later. Through essays, episode summaries, and cultural analysis, they take us back to the island and examine LOST’s lasting impact—and its complicated, sometimes controversial legacy—with a clear-eyed and lively investigation.
