Fireblood
In this action-packed sequel to the New York Times bestselling Frostblood, Ruby must choose between her fiery homeland and the icy king who loves her.
Against all odds, Ruby has defeated the villainous Frost King and melted his powerful throne. But the bloodthirsty Minax that was trapped inside is now haunting her kingdom and everyone she loves. The answers to its demise may lie to the south in Sudesia, the land of the Firebloods, and a country that holds the secrets to Ruby's powers and past....
Despite warnings from her beloved Arcus, Ruby accompanies a roguish Fireblood named Kai to Sudesia, where she must master her control of fire in a series of trials to gain the trust of the suspicious Fireblood queen. Only then can she hope to access the knowledge that could defeat the rampaging Minax--which grows closer every moment. But as sparks fly in her moments alone with Kai, how can Ruby decide whom to trust? The fate of both kingdoms is now in her hands.

The Ten Faces of Innovation
Innovation is the lifeblood of every company - the fuel that keeps an organisation going in a tough marketplace. But by its very nature it's hard to plan for, quantify and coach. In The Ten Faces of Innovation Tom Kelley explains how to do it.
Kelley, author of bestselling The Art of Innovation, reveals the strategies that his world-famous design firm IDEO uses to foster original thinking and overcome naysayers who stifle creativity. For Kelley, innovation is all about individuals and teams. He identifies ten key roles developed by IDEO that anyone can adopt in order to innovate in different situations. Ranging from 'the anthropologist' and 'the hurdler' to 'the experience architect' and 'the cross-pollinator', they are all illustrated with real corporate examples and will help you transform the way you work, and show those around you how to do the same. The result is a brilliant and applicable guide to fostering creativity and creating a culture of innovation in any workplace.
Manic Street Preachers - Lifeblood: 20th Anniversary 2LP
Manic Street Preachers sú waleská rocková skupina založená v Blackwoode, Caerphilly, v roku 1986. Kapelu tvoria bratranci James Dean Bradfield (spev, gitara), Sean Moore (bicie, perkusie, zvukové plochy) , a Nicky Wire (basgitara, texty). Tvoria kľúčovú súčasť kultúrneho hnutia Welsh Cool Cymru 90. rokov. Po vydaní ich debutového singlu „Suicide Alley“ sa k Manic Street Preachers pridal Richey Edwards ako spoluautor textu a rytmický gitarista a skupina sa stala kvartetom. Prvé albumy kapely boli v punkovom duchu, nakoniec sa rozšírili na väčší alternatívny rockový zvuk, pričom si zachovali ľavicový politický pohľad. Ich skorá kombinácia androgýnnych glamov a textov o „kultúre, odcudzení, nude a zúfalstve“ im získala lojálnych fanúšikov.
"20th Anniversary Edition" siedmeho štúdiového albumu Manic Street Preachers „Lifeblood“. LP + CD verzie obsahujú pôvodný album s novým Remasterom z roku 2024. Nahrávka, ktorú Nicky Wire opísal ako „náš najodcudzený album zo všetkých“, prišla v čase, keď skupina premýšľala o tom, čím sa stali a čím by mohli byť. Skupina hľadala inšpiráciu v hudbe, ktorú mali radi, keď boli mladí, New Order približne 'Low Life', Prefab Sprout 'Steve McQueen', Thomas Dolby 'The Flat Earth', skoré Simple Minds a druh cerebrálneho elektronického popu. ktoré dominovali od začiatku do polovice 80. rokov. Wire vtedy povedal:"Hlavnými lyrickými témami sú smrť, samota a duchovia. Byť prenasledovaný históriou a prenasledovaný vlastnou minulosťou." James Dean Bradfield povedal: "Milujem robiť Lifeblood, pretože to bolo zaujímavé. Miloval som naháňať tieto ďalšie verzie toho, o čo sme sa pokúšali."

An Education in Malice
Love is sacrifice. One of us was always going to bleed for the other.
Deep in the forgotten hills of Massachusetts stands Saint Perpetua's College. Isolated and ancient, it is not a place for timid girls. Here, secrets are currency, ambition is lifeblood, and strange ceremonies welcome students into the fold.
On her first day of class, Laura Sheridan is thrust into an intense academic rivalry with the beautiful and enigmatic Carmilla. Together, they are drawn into the confidence of their demanding poetry professor, De Lafontaine, who holds her own dark obsession with Carmilla.
But as their rivalry blossoms into something far more delicious, Laura must confront her own strange hungers. Tangled in a sinister game of politics, bloodthirsty professors and sinister magic, Laura and Carmilla must decide how much they are willing to sacrifice in their ruthless pursuit of knowledge.
Sumptuous and addictive, An Education in Malice is a dark academia tale of blood, secrets and insatiable hungers from S.T. Gibson, author of the cult hit A Dowry of Blood.
Wounded Tigris
The river Tigris is in danger. It has been the lifeblood of ancient Mesopotamia and modern Iraq, but geopolitics and climate change have left the birthplace of civilisation at risk of becoming uninhabitable. In 2021, adventurer Leon McCarron travelled by boat along the full length of the river, in search of hope.
From the source, where Assyrian kings had their images carved into stone, McCarron and his small team journeyed through the Turkish mountains, across north-east Syria and into the heart of Iraq.
Passing by historic cities like Diyarbakir, Mosul and Baghdad, McCarron kept the company of fishermen and farmers, but also artists, activists and archaeologists who rely on the flow of the river. Occasionally harassed by militias, often helped by soldiers, McCarron rode his luck in areas still troubled by ISIS and relied on the generosity of a network of strangers to reach the Persian Gulf.
Wounded Tigris is the story of what humanity stands to lose with the death of a great river, and what can be done to try to save it.

The Persuaders
A riveting insider account of how activists, politicians, educators and citizens are working to change minds, bridge divisions and save democracy
The lifeblood of any free society is persuasion: changing other people's minds to enable real change. But America is suffering a crisis of faith in persuasion that is putting its democracy and the planet itself at risk. People increasingly write each other off instead of seeking to win each other over. Debates are framed in moralistic terms, with enemies battling the righteous. Movements for justice build barriers to entry, instead of on-ramps. Political parties focus on mobilizing the faithful rather than wooing the sceptical. And leaders who seek to forge coalition are labelled sell-outs.
In The Persuaders best-selling author Anand Giridharadas takes us inside these movements and battles, seeking out the dissenters who continue to champion persuasion in an age of polarization. We meet a co-founder of Black Lives Matter; a leader of the feminist resistance to Trumpism; white parents at a seminar on raising adopted children of colour; Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez; a team of door knockers with an uncanny formula for changing minds on immigration; and an ex-cult member turned QAnon deprogrammer.
As they grapple with how to "call out" threats and injustices while "calling in" those who don't agree with them but just might one day, they point a way to healing, and changing, a broken society.

The Dinosaurs Rediscovered
Startling new fossil finds are the lifeblood of modern palaeobiology. Giant sauropod dinosaur skeletons from Patagonia, dinosaurs with feathers from China, and even a tiny dinosaur tail in Burmese amber - complete down to every detail of its filament-like feathers, skin, bones and mummified tail muscles - inspire awe in a global audience enthralled by the idea of these great creatures walking the earth. Dinosaurs are of perennial interest to all ages, as illustrated by the huge range of dino-themed films, books and live attractions, from the enduring popularity of the Jurassic Park franchise to the success of London's immersive 'Dinosaurs in the Wild' experience.
In the past twenty years, dinosaur study has changed from natural history to testable science. New technologies have revealed secrets locked in the bones in a way nobody predicted - we can now work out the colour of dinosaurs, their bite forces, speeds and parental care as well as how they came to die out.This groundbreaking book illustrates how science has replaced speculation and how our understanding of dinosaurs and their world hascompletely changed. The subject has never been so vigorous, has never changed so fast, and has never been so attractive to so many.
