Da han bliver anholdt i lufthavnen på øen Isla Margerita i juli 1998, har han 3,5 kilo kokain på sig. Foran ham ligger tre år og otte måneders helvede i San Antonio, et af verdens mest brutale fængsler – og da han ved hjælp af familie og venner overlever og vender hjem igen, er de psykiske og fysiske ar store.

Historien begynder på Korsika og slutter på Sankt Helena. Det er beretningen om den fattige korsikanske patriot, den passionerede kvindeelsker og ivrige brevskriver, der ville være forfatter eller videnskabsmand, men som i den franske revolutions virvar så sin chance og blev sin tids mægtigste kejser. Hvordan var det muligt? Hvad fik ham til for lidt mere end 200 år siden at sætte kejsertronen på sit hoved. Var det storhedsvanvid eller den logiske belønning for alle hans sejre? Herman Lindqvist fortæller fascinerende og medrivende den utrolige historie om Napoleon Bonaparte .

He wasn’t born to rule — he was born to ignite. This is the epic, explosive, and relentlessly human story of Alexander the Great, the man who almost conquered the world through sheer willpower. From a boy raised on Homer and prophecy to a general who destroyed empires and demanded worship, ALEXANDER: The Man Who Couldn’t Stop is a firestorm biography that walks the razor’s edge between genius and madness. Written with bite, clarity, and a streak of dark humor, this book doesn’t worship Alexander — it dissects him. Because he wasn’t a god. He was something scarier. He was human. With no brakes.

This autobiography is told through the eyes of a child growing into a teen from the last gasping thousand-year empire of Hitler into the equally evil government of East Germany, a life that had no normal childhood, tears, and fears of no future. Only being allowed to migrate to the US at age 21 changed the author's life.

Die Kreuzfahrer, die zurück in ihre Heimatdörfer humpelten und vertrocknete Palmblätter aus dem Heiligen Land auf die Altäre der Kirchen legten, hatten 1099 gesiegt: Jerusalem war in christlicher Hand. Was zählte der gemeinsame Glaube, wenn es um Gold und Macht ging?

This isn’t a biography. It’s a deep-dive into the man who fused warlord power with priestly authority and accidentally programmed Western civilization. Through brutal conquest and divine branding, he became more than king—he became the template. Popes would crown in his shadow. Emperors would copy his crown. Napoleon would steal his vibe. And every modern system of power would inherit his logic. This is the story of how one man merged Church and State into a single executable file—and why we’re still running his code.

Det er fortællingen om den viking, der senere blev dansk konge efter en magtkamp med faderen, Harald blåtand (som han myrdede!), og grundlagde Danmark. Han indtog dele af Norge og Sverige og hele England, hvor han i 1013 - året før sin død - blev anerkendt som kongen over alle engelske. Romanen er resultatet af flere års research og må betragtes som det første opgør med den historieopfattelse, ifølge hvilken Sven Tveskæg kun var en brutal parentes i dansk og nordeuropæisk historie.

Born in 1943, the author spent his first fourteen years on the move—across Montreal, Canada, three northern states, two southern states, and eight different schools. Each stop brought new friendships, challenges, and a front-row seat to a rapidly changing America in the years after World War II. Told with warmth, wit, and an eye for cultural detail, this memoir is a vivid portrait of boyhood in mid-century North America—complete with dormitories, classrooms, small-town streets, and the quiet moments that shape a life.

In the aftermath of World War II, Germany lay in ruins—its cities bombed, its people starving, its identity fractured. In German Autumn, Swedish journalist Stig Dagerman delivers a raw and unfiltered account of life in occupied Germany during the fall of 1946.

This isn't a book about finding Amelia Earhart. it's about her finding me, and guiding, directing, nudging, cajoling me along the way. It's a mind bending adventure told in third person, then in first person, then with eyewitnesses, then with a variety of mediums who I've known for decades, answering my incessant questions.
