TØRST: en (stærk) trang, længsel eller lyst efter noget ... En aggressiv virus har spredt sig som en løbeild gennem Stockholm og har efterladt byen i kaos. Folk kæmper for overlevelse i efterdønningerne fra sygdommens rasen, da en ny trussel gør sit indtog. De, der ikke allerede er smittet, skal holde sig inden døre, når solen er gået ned. For når mørket falder på, kommer de frem: de forandrede. TØRST er anden bog i Raseri-serien. Bøgerne i serien er blevet hyldet af læsere, lyttere og anmeldere og kan sammenlignes med tv-serier som The Last of Us og The Walking Dead. Når han ikke skriver, er Andreas Ek politimand og arbejder som tekniker i politiefterforskninger, og det er de erfaringer, han bruger i sit nervepirrende forfatterskab.

The “definitive biography” of the poet and political dissident who became the last president of Czechoslovakia—and first president of the Czech Republic (Walter Isaacson). This portrait of Vaclav Havel, iconoclast and intellectual, renowned playwright turned political dissident, president of a united then divided nation, and dedicated human rights activist, is written by his former press secretary, advisor, and longtime friend—and recounts the turbulent twentieth-century era through which he prevailed. Havel’s lifelong perspective as an outsider began with his privileged childhood in Prague and his family’s blacklisted status following the Communist coup of 1948. This feeling of ...
This book challenges earlier understandings of early modern dissertations as unimaginative academic exercises. It argues for their continuous importance in scholarly and scientific discourse, and describes the richness and diversity of their subjects and themes. The book contains a complete catalogue of the almost 20,000 Swedish dissertations defended in Uppsala, Lund and Åbo, 1600 to 1820. The catalogue includes longer comments and descriptions of a few thousand of these dissertations, and also gives an analysis of how different subjects have evolved over time.
A serial killer has reigned free in the city of Ebria for longer than anyone could remember. Some claimed it to be a vengeful spirit seeking justice in a city of corruption. Others say it's a powerful undead, practitioner of magic, or worse yet...both. There are rumors it's one person and others saying it’s an entire cabal. Many have tried to bring the killer to justice, but for centuries all have failed. Meira Dyel - a young woman plagued by a lifetime of nightmares is tasked to find the killer when Ryn - her friend and mentor, becomes the latest victim. With the aid of her friend and fellow guildsman Darven, she hunts for the Ebrian Slayer and learns a truth about herself so profound it threatens to unravel her already fragile psyche.
