    Imagine a secret science experiment. Very secret. Very sciency. Should be perfectly safe, right? Right? Now, imagine a ghoul school in crisis. It's just like your school, only a bit more ghoulish. Well, a lot more ghoulish, but it still has students and teachers, like any proper school. It has a proper name, too: St. Squirmings' Ghoul School. And there's a crisis going on. And finally, imagine a headless monk, with a cold, so there's a lot of sniffing and snot involved. Combine the three, and think about what could possibly go wrong. Think about everything that could go wrong. Or, better yet, dare to listen to Snot Monster, and find out for yourself! Enter the St. Squirmings' Ghoul School, meet some new (and ghoulish, and perhaps snotty) schoolmates, hear about the horrid goings-on going on...and face the terrible Snot Monster! ungekürzt.

    An adventure story set in the Solomon Islands sees Jack and Toni, childhood schoolmates, set out on a routine boat trip to a neighbouring island, but things go awry when they discover, due to an oversight by Toni, that they do not have enough fuel to make the journey and are stranded at sea. At first they are optimistic that they will be rescued within hours, but as the first days draw to an end they slowly begin to realise that the mistake has left them in serious jeopardy and they can see no end but their own demise in sight. Based on a true story, as the days lengthen at sea, we are gifted with a vision of the beauty of the Solomon Islands and the environmental debt it is owed by the world, after decades of over-fishing, logging and now rising sea levels due to global warming.  At the heart, this is a crucial and important novel on climate change, culture and human relations. ungekürzt.

But even worse, his father was sent to an agricultural reform camp to do hard labor as punishment for daring to want to leave Cuba.During the years to come, as he grew up in Glorytown, a neighborhood in the city of Cienfuegos, Eduardo hoped with all his might that their exit visa would be granted before he turned 15, the age at which he would be drafted into the army.In this absorbing memoir, by turns humorous and heartbreaking, Eduardo Calcines recounts his boyhood and chronicles the conditions that led him to wish above all else to leave behind his beloved extended family and his home for a chance at a better future. ungekürzt.

    Her name is Sarah. She's blonde, blue-eyed, and Jewish in 1939 Germany. And her act of resistance is about to change the world. After her mother is shot at a checkpoint, 15-year-old Sarah meets a mysterious man with an ambiguous accent, a suspiciously bare apartment, and a lockbox full of weapons. He's part of the secret resistance against the Third Reich, and he needs Sarah to hide in plain sight at a school for the daughters of top Nazi brass, posing as one of them. If she can befriend the daughter of a key scientist and get invited to her house, she might be able to steal the blueprints to a bomb that could destroy the cities of Western Europe. Nothing could prepare Sarah for her cutthroat schoolmates, and soon, she finds herself in a battle for survival unlike any she'd ever imagined.
