For Jack Ryan, Jr., and his comrades at the covert organization known as The Campus, the fight against America’s enemies is never over. But the danger has just hit home in a way they never expected… The Campus has been discovered. And whoever knows they exist knows they can be destroyed. Meanwhile, President Jack Ryan has been swept back into the Oval Office—and his wisdom and courage are needed more desperately than ever. Internal political and economic strife has pushed the leadership of China to the edge of disaster. And those who wish to consolidate their power are using the opportunity to strike at long-desired Taiwan, as well as the Americans who have protected the tiny nation.

In Child of All Nations, the reader is immediately swept up by a story that is profoundly feminist, devastatingly anticolonialist—and full of heartbreak, suspense, love, and fury. Pramoedya immerses the reader in a world that is astonishing in its vividness: the cultural whirlpool that was the Dutch East Indies of the 1890s. A story of awakening, it follows Minke, the main character of This Earth of Mankind, as he struggles to overcome the injustice all around him. Pramoedya's full literary genius is evident in the brilliant characters that populate this world: Minke's fragile Mixed-Race wife; a young Chinese revolutionary; an embattled Javanese peasant and his impoverished family; the French painter Jean Marais, to name just a few.

CIRI STAJE PRED SVOJU SUDBINU. Jesenji ekvinocij te neobične godine doneo je raznolike znake na nebu i na zemlji, koji su nesumnjivo nagoveštavali nekakve nesreće i neobične događaje. Tik pred ponoć, uzdiže se strašna mećava, zaduva pakleni vihor, a oblaci gonjeni po nebu poprimiše fantastične oblike, među kojima su se najčešće ponavljale siluete galopirajućih konja i jednoroga. Leganji divljim glasovima ispevaše samrtnu pesmu, zaječa strašna bean’ši, vesnica brze i nasilne smrti, a kada Divlji Gon pregalopira i kada se raziđoše oblaci, ljudi ugledaše mesec u opadanju, kao što i biva u vreme ravnodnevice. Ali ove noći, mesec je bio boje krvi. U Hramu boginje Melitele, tri osobe snevaju isti san. „Krv na njenom licu... Toliko krvi...“ Nemilosrdne ubice iz Nilfgarda su već na tragu Ciri. Ona pak, teško ranjena, oporavlja se u kolibi pustinjaka Visogote, izgubljenoj među močvarama. Da li će veštac uspeti da pronađe Ciri? Kakvu ulogu će odigrati Lastavičja kula obavijena legendom? Lastavičja kula je šesta od sedam knjiga Sage o vešcu, koju sačinjavaju dve zbirke pripovedaka i pet romana. Saga je postal bestseler ne samo u autorovoj rodnoj Poljskoj već i širom sveta. Prevedena je na brojne svetske jezike, a na osnovu nje su nastale TV serija i čuvena kompjuterska igra The Witcher.

Romantic love and its power to shake a woman's life at any age is the subject of this new novel by Marilyn French. At the center, Hermione Beldame, in her sixties, a writer of romance novels (eighty-seven of them, an average of two a year for forty years).

Until, one day, at a party - she sees across the room an attractive man who finds his way to her. What begins as a charming conversation between two strangers develops into much more (and much less) as the novel charts the course of a brief encounter that disrupts the equilibrium - the hard-won serenity - of its heroine, seizing her heart and her life during her summer with George.

Then a few martinis with Carter...no, Connor Reed and she's gone from first meet to marriage in one night! Megan wants a lawyer. But Connor's shocking bombshell? "I don't want a divorce."
