Welcome to Honey Creek, Illinois, where life was as sweet as the town's name suggested. That was until Mr. Fine Dining himself, Alex Ramírez, rolled into town with a permanent scowl. Even worse, he decided to park his snooty five-star restaurant across from my cozy dog daycare. He was tall, dark, and about as warm as a frozen entrée. After one too many unpleasant interactions, I was determined to stay out of his way and to keep him out of mine. But fate had a quirky sense of humor.

The four Celestial Heirs will stop at nothing to destroy the lives of me and my sister. But they haven't figured out yet that we're the strongest creatures they've ever known. And when that secret comes out, we need to be ready to face them as well as any other cruel Fae who rises against us. It’s us or them. And it damn well won’t be us.

Une journaliste avide d'une solide histoire pour réhabiliter sa carrière. Un assassin, interné pour aliénation mentale, qui a bien maquillé certains de ses crimes. Une ancienne épouse marquée à vie par la violence. Des rituels sataniques enterrés au coeur de la forêt. Une rencontre qui déchaîne un cycle de violence prévu depuis longtemps. Charles Perrault affirme, à la fin de Barbe Bleue, que la curiosité coûte souvent bien des regrets. La protagoniste de cette nouvelle mouture du fameux conte l'apprendra à ses dépens en se frottant au monstre qui la fascine...

Lysander au Lune, the displaced heir to the old empire, has returned to bridge the divide between the Golds of the Rim and Core. If united, their combined might may prove fatal to the fledgling Republic.

Une fillette hantée de souvenirs qui ne sont pas les siens. Des cauchemars, incessants, qui frappent à la même heure. Un avertissement incompris, une menace ignorée. Et le passé terrifiant, impitoyable, qui rattrape l’innocence d’Aurore. Cette réécriture moderne et terrifiante du conte de Charles Perreault est une véritable matière à cauchemars. Entre secrets, meurtres, débauche et abomination, l’horreur se redéfinit complètement encore une fois sous la plume de L.P. Sicard.

Everything Poppy has ever believed in is a lie, including the man she was falling in love with. Thrust among those who see her as a symbol of a monstrous kingdom, she barely knows who she is without the veil of the Maiden. But what she does know is that nothing is as dangerous to her as him. The Dark One. The Prince of Atlantia. He wants her to fight him, and that's one order she's more than happy to obey. He may have taken her, but he will never have her.

Pour profiter au mieux de cette expérience immersive en son binaural, nous vous recommandons de l’écouter au casque. À la recherche de Notre-Dame nous plonge dans la tête du jeune Victor Hugo au moment où il commence ses recherches pour écrire son futur "roman cathédrale" Notre-Dame de Paris. Nous sommes en 1828. Notre-Dame est alors une église en état de délabrement. Elle ne sera rénovée par Viollet-le-Duc et Jean-Baptiste Lassus qu’à partir de 1843.

Khemet has guarded the tombs of her people for millions of years, patiently waiting for the day when the numberless legions of the dead will rise again. As they finally begin to stir, old ambitions and treacheries are roused with them. Betrayed and imprisoned, dogged by the shame of a terrible failure, Khemet has endured the gravest punishment Necron ingenuity can conjure. Now she is free, offered a single chance to restore her honour and reclaim her standing.

César commence par y relater la guerre des Gaules, justifiant la soumission d'un monde considéré comme barbare, avant de nous plonger dans la guerre civile, c'est-à-dire l'effondrement de la République romaine. Comme le souligne Pacôme Thiellement, qui signe une postface audio inédite, entendre César aujourd'hui, c'est assister à la naissance d'une idéologie qui structure encore notre rapport au monde : domination, expansion et justification de la guerre.

Les Presses Universitaires de France et Frémeaux & Associés proposent des cours particuliers sur l' "Histoire des sexualités", racontée, expliquée et analysée par Sylvie Steinberg, Gabrielle Houbre et Christine Bard, historiennes. L'œuvre de Michel Foucault a mis l'accent sur le caractère culturel de toute sexualité, variable dans l'espace et le temps, sur sa dépendance aux discours et aux enjeux religieux, scientifiques et politiques. Cet ouvrage vise à rendre compte, de façon accessible et vivante, des évolutions historiographiques récentes.

Plan A : l'éliminer discrètement. Plan B : tomber amoureux. Spoiler : il a raté le plan A. Entre une rupture et un scandale au tabloïd, Tillie ne s'attendait pas à ajouter « témoin d'un meurtre » à sa to-do list ni à frôler la mort dans la foulée. Sauvetage héroïque ? Plutôt enlèvement express par un type canon et franchement louche nommé Ash. La voilà embarquée au fin fond du Wyoming, dans un chalet paumé, avec un inconnu qui semble avoir oublié de lui confier un petit détail : c'est lui le criminel qu'elle cherche à fuir.

The human race is at War with the "Buggers," an insect-like alien race. As Earth prepares to defend itself from total destruction at the hands of an inscrutable enemy, all focus is on the development of military geniuses who can fight such a war, and win. The long distances of interstellar space have given hope to the defenders of Earth--they have time to train these future commanders up from childhood, forging them into an irresistible force in the high orbital facility called the Battle School.

A reluctant voyager crossing the Pacific in 1850; a disinherited composer blagging a precarious livelihood in between-the-wars Belgium; a high-minded journalist in Governor Reagan's California; a vanity publisher fleeing his gangland creditors; a genetically modified "dinery server" on death-row; and Zachry, a young Pacific Islander witnessing the nightfall of science and civilisation: the narrators of Cloud Atlas hear each other's echoes down the corridor of history.

The day Death comes to Lazarus Gaumond’s town and kills everyone in one fell swoop, the last thing he expects to see is a woman left alive and standing. But Lazarus has her own extraordinary gift: she cannot be killed—not by humans, not by the elements, not by Death himself.

Andrew "Ender" Wiggin thinks he is playing computer-simulated war games at the Battle School; he is, in fact, engaged in something far more desperate. Ender is the result of decades of genetic experimentation, Earth's attempt to make the military genius that the planet needs in its all-out war with an alien enemy. Ender Wiggin is six-years-old when it begins. He will grow up fast. This, the special 20th Anniversary Edition, includes an original postscript written and recorded by Orson Scott Card himself.

Ein verzwickter Fall, eine wunderbare Kommissarin und Urlaubsfeeling pur in der Provence: Im Provence-Krimi Madame le Commissaire und das geheime Dossier von Bestseller-Autor Pierre Martin löst Kommissarin Isabelle Bonnet ihren 11. Fall. Im beschaulichen Fragolin in der Provence gehen die Uhren anders – normalerweise.

After a sudden cross-country move, I'm stuck crashing with my older brother and two of his hockey teammates for sophomore year. I'm not thrilled about shacking up with three athletes and their stinky gear, rotating door of hookups, and tendency to inhale every snack in the house—just some reasons of many that hockey players aren't my type. When I walk in the front door with an armload of boxes, however, I'm faced with another problem. My anonymous fling from two months ago is Tyler Donahue, the superstar goalie for my brother's team.
