      Ponorte sa do epického príbehu magie, pomsty a impéria na pokraji kolapsu, zasadeného do univerza League of Legends. Camavor je krajina poznačená brutalitou a krviprelievaním, kde rytieri impéria zanechávajú stopu masakru. Kalista, odhodlaná zmeniť tento odkaz, sa stáva vernou dôverníčkou a vojenskou generálkou svojho mladého, narcistického strýka Viega, ktorý práve nastúpil na trón. Jej snahy zmierniť jeho deštruktívne sklony sú roztrhnuté, keď sa na Viegovu manželku Isolde vrhne jedovatá čepeľ vraha, zanechávajúc ju s nevyliečiteľnou chorobou. Ako sa Isoldin stav zhoršuje, Viega sa ponára do šialenstva, čo ohrozuje stabilitu kráľovstva. V snahe zachrániť Camavor sa Kalista vydáva na cestu za legendárnymi Požehnanými ostrovmi, o ktorých sa verí, že obsahujú kľúč k záchrane kráľovnej. Avšak v hlavnom meste ostrovov sa skrýva korupcia, kde sa pomstychtivý strážca spriada plány proti nej. Kalista čelí zložitému rozhodnutiu medzi vernosťou Viegovi a konaním správneho, pretože aj jeden ušľachtilý čin môže osvetliť najtemnejšie cesty. Tento pútavý príbeh lásky, straty, vojny a povinnosti zdôrazňuje myšlienku, že triumf zla si vyžaduje nečinnosť dobra, čo z neho robí fascinujúce čítanie pre fanúšikov aj nováčikov v univerze League of Legends.

Bretonnia is a land shrouded in myth and magic, under siege from the strange creatures of its shadowy forests and those fallen to the lure of the Dark Gods.

Accompanied by his faithful manservant Chlod, he must face vampires, wyverns, Chaos warriors and goblins, but each battle brings him one step closer to becoming the legend he seeks. Knights of Bretonnia collects the novels Knight Errant and Knight of the Realm, plus the novellas Questing Knight and Grail Knight, completing the saga of Calard from his knightly training to his most epic of victories.

      Delve in to the dark world of the Chaos Warbands in this great value Warhammer 40,000 Omnibus. Insidious is the allure of Chaos. Power, revenge, immortality… The road to damnation is paved with such false promises and none who have trod this path are as infamous as the Heretic Astartes. They are the Chaos Space Marines Renegades, once noble warriors who have rebelled against the Throne and the Emperor to embrace darkness, who out of a desire for strength have become slaves to darkness. They are champions of corruption, of wrath and perversion, the foremost warriors of the Dark Gods, and in battle they have few equals. Forever fighting the so-called ‘Long War’ they will not rest until reality itself collapses, plunging the galaxy into a hell-realm of which there is no escape. This omnibus contains the novels Lucius: The Faultless Blade, Khârn: Eater of Worlds, Sons of the Hydra and an additional short story.

    • „The Impossible Dream“ is an in-depth biography that traces the career of one of the most successful bands in pop history. In addition to assessing and analysing the talent and appeal of the enigmatic Scott, the author also covers the history and contributions of the other 'brothers', John and Gary, and provides a thorough analysis of all three men's careers both as individual artists and as a group, from 1963 to 1978. Drawing on decades of archive interviews with the band (some previously unpublished), and many new interviews with backing musicians, record label staff and producers, „The Impossible Dream“ is the definitive telling of The Walker Brothers' story. Anthony Reynolds is a musician and a writer. He has released eight critically acclaimed albums. Anthony has contributed essays and critiques to many US and UK magazines, and has published a biography of Jeff Buckley

Von den ersten Anfängen als mittelloser Dichter in seiner kanadischen Heimatstadt Montreal begleitet es Leonard Cohen über vier Jahrzehnte bis zu den triumphalen Konzerten seiner jüngsten Welttournee. Der Autor Anthony Reynolds führte zahlreiche Interviews mit Cohen selbst, aber auch mit dessen Freunden, Lebensgefährtinnen, zeitweiligen Geliebten und Musikerkollegen. Herausgekommen ist das faszinierende, detailreiche Bild eines wechselvollen Lebens zwischen Lyrik, Folk und Rock ’n’ Roll, ein warmherzig geschriebenes Lebens bild des Dichters und Sängers, der von sich behauptet, mit dem Geschenk einer goldenen Stimme auf die Welt gekommen zu sein.

      Une vie remarquable conte l'histoire de la vie, des amours et de l'œuvre d'un poète et auteur-compositeur-interprète qui dit avoir été " doté à la naissance d'une voix d'or ". La biographie fascinante et très détaillée de d'Anthony Reynolds s'appuie sur des interviews inédites d'anciens et d'actuefs mùsiciens, associés, éditeurs, amis, fans, producteurs, collègues, ennemis et pairs de Cohen. Peu à peu, malgré le flou dans lequel Cohen a courtoisement cherché à nous laisser pendant 40 ans, se dessine un portrait étonnamment franc de la légendaire figure ayant suscité une loyauté sans égal chez ses admirateurs et ses fans, jeunes et vieux. Du passé lointain de ses débuts acclamés, mais financièrement difficiles, dans la poésie, à sa dernière tournée, en passant par ses voyages, ses aventures et ses crises religieuses, Cohen, ainsi que sa vie et son oeuvre extraordinaires, sont examinés comme jamais ils ne l'avaient été. Léonard Cohen a marqué le monde de la musique avec les inoubliables : Susan et Hallelujah.
