It wants to scream, it wants to tear things apart. 1816. Mary, eighteen years old, is staying in a villa on Lake Geneva with her lover Percy Shelley. She is tormented by his infidelities; haunted by the loss of her baby daughter. Then one evening with friends, as storms rage outside and laudanum stirs their imaginations, Lord Byron challenges everyone to write a ghost story, and something fierce and wild awakens in Mary. Memories surface of the long, strange summer she once spent with a family in Scotland, where she found herself falling in love with the enigmatic Isabella Baxter. She learned tales of mythical beasts, witches and spirits. And she encountered real monsters - both in the rocky wilds, and far, far closer to home... Illuminating the past like a flash of lightning, this brilliant reimagining of the birth of Frankenstein takes us into a feverish world of waking dreams-where grief mingles with desire, and the veil between beauty and horror grows thin.

A stag leaps on an ancient brooch. A doe and a fawn step across a field at first light. A pair of antlers is silhouetted by the side of a busy road. From the earliest cave paintings to the present day, humans and deer have a long and complex history. Royal harts were the coveted quarry of European kings, while the first Americans relied on deer for everything from buckskins to arrow heads. Once hunted to the point of extinction in some parts of the world, deer numbers have exploded in recent years, causing tension between scientists and conservationists. And yet, this is our own story, as the fortune of deer is inextricably bound up with the actions that we humans take on the world around us. Weaving together history and reportage, in The Age of Deer Erika Howsare deftly explores the relationship between our two species in the line where wildness meets humankind. It is a reminder of the poetry and violence of the natural world, from an exciting new voice in nature writing.

Das Attentat auf John F. Kennedy gilt offiziell als aufgeklärt. Doch wenn alles ganz anders war? --- "Ich möchte Sie porträtieren als den Mann, der schon heute weiß, was die USA erst im Lauf des nächsten Jahres erfahren werden, und ich möchte versuchen, in Erfahrung zu bringen, ob uns eine Luftnummer erwartet oder ob Sie so etwas wie das menschgewordene schlechte Gewissen Amerikas sind." Kenneth starrte die Journalistin an. Woher wusste sie das mit dem Gewissen? Das sind meine eigenen Gedanken! "Sie kennen den Inhalt der Jfk-Akten?", fragte sie. --- Kenneth Fitzgerald ist Archivar des US-Nationalarchivs. Ihm obliegt die Betreuung der Jfk-Akten, deren Sperrfrist am 31.12.2016 endet. US-Präsident Obama ist der einzige, der die Veröffentlichung der Akten noch verhindern kann. Kenneth setzt sich bei ihm dafür ein, dass die Akten geschlossen bleiben, doch er bekommt eine Abfuhr. Von der Journalistin Diane Arnsworth erfährt Kenneth, dass auch Lobbyisten der Rüstungsindustrie die Verlängerung der Sperrfrist erwirken wollten. Gewisse Kreise scheinen daran interessiert zu sein, dass die Akten nicht veröffentlicht werden. Sie könnten sogar in Gefahr sein — und mit ihnen Kenneth, der als einziger lebender Mensch ihren Inhalt kennt … --- Polit-Thriller vor historischem Hintergrund. Markenzeichen des Autors: saubere Recherche, realistische Zeichnung von Figuren -- und ein Schuss Humor. Die Protagonisten von "Die JFK-Akten" gehören auch zum Personal des Virenkrieg-Zyklus desselben Autors.

Most of the things we do in life are done out of habit. From the moment we wake up in the morning to the actions we take throughout the day – our morning routine, our regular breakfast and our daily chores at work – the habits we develop literally control most of our actions. Because our habits dictate all the small details that make up our everyday lives, they also are directly related to the bigger issues in our lives, such as how much money we earn, the kind of person we marry or live with, our physical condition and health, and every other area of our lives. Our habits determine our character, the type of person we project to the rest of the world and, ultimately, our destiny. So if we embrace bad habits – those habits which have a negative impact on who we are – then those same habits will prevent us from achieving excellence in our lives, holding us back from reaching our fullest potential. It's only by breaking bad habits and replacing them with good habits that we can ultimately succeed in life and be the people we were truly meant to be. The purpose of this book is to show you how to break bad habits – any sort of bad habit, from those that are damaging to your health, like smoking or not wearing a seat-belt, to those that affect your self-esteem, such as negative thinking or overeating – and replace them with positive behaviors that can become part of your daily life and finally cause you to see the results you truly want.

Here is a story that has lain dormant for seven hundred years. At first it was suppressed by one of the Plantagenet kings of England. Later it was forgotten. I happened to dig it up by accident. The accident being the relationship of my wife's cousin to a certain Father Superior in a very ancient monastery in Europe. He let me pry about among a quantity of mildewed and musty manuscripts and I came across this. It is very interesting -- partially since it is a bit of hitherto unrecorded history, but principally from the fact that it records the story of a most remarkable revenge and the adventurous life of its innocent victim -- Richard, the lost prince of England. In the retelling of it I have left out most of the history. What interested me was the unique character about whom the tale revolves -- the visored horseman who -- but let us wait until we get to him. It all happened in the thirteenth century, and while it was happening it shook England from north to south and from east to west; and reached across the channel and shook France...
