Våren 1792 anländer Aurora De la Gardie till Gyllengrips slott, utanför Götheborg. Den unga konstnärinnan har anställts för att avbilda det nyklassicistiska mästerverket genom sina akvarellmålningar. Vad hon tror kommer att bli ett år av intensivt konstnärligt arbete på slottet blir i stället en livsomvälvande tid fylld med maskeradbaler, teaterbesök, ruinromantik, lummiga trädgårdar, engelska tebjudningar och förkrossande hemligheter. När grevinnans stilige dotterson, Henry Savage, anländer efter sina äventyr i Nedre Kanada, förändras allt ... Kan Aurora motstå frestelserna som uppdraget bjuder på eller var det helt enkelt ödet att deras vägar korsas?

The year is 2380, and the graduating cadets of Aurora Academy are being assigned their first missions. Star pupil Tyler Jones is ready to recruit the squad of his dreams, but his own boneheaded heroism sees him stuck with the dregs nobody else in the academy would touch . . .
A cocky diplomat with a black belt in sarcasm
A sociopath scientist with a fondness for shooting her bunkmates
A smart-ass tech whiz with the galaxy's biggest chip on his shoulder
An alien warrior with anger-management issues
A tomboy pilot who's totally not into him, in case you were wondering
And Ty's squad isn't even his biggest problem-that'd be Aurora Jie-Lin O'Malley, the girl he's just rescued from interdimensional space. Trapped in cryo-sleep for two centuries, Auri is a girl out of time and out of her depth. But she could be the catalyst that starts a war millions of years in the making, and Tyler's squad of losers, discipline cases, and misfits might just be the last hope for the entire galaxy.
NOBODY PANIC.

NEW EDITION IN PAPERBACK to coincide with a new project to unveil a statue of the author in Richmond on Thames in 2022"I ought to be grateful to Richmond & Hogarth, and indeed, whether it's my invincible optimism or not, I am grateful." - Virginia WoolfAlthough more commonly associated with Bloomsbury, Virginia and her husband Leonard Woolf lived in Richmond-upon-Thames for ten years from the time of the First World War (1914-1924). Refuting the common misconception that she disliked the town, this book explores her daily habits as well as her intimate thoughts while living at the pretty house she came to love - Hogarth House.Drawing on information from her many letters and diaries, as well as Leonard's autobiography, the editor reveals how Richmond's relaxed way of life came to influence the writer, from her experimentation as a novelist to her work with her husband and the Hogarth Press, from her relationships with her servants to her many famous visitors.

Han kände denna sköna varelse smyga sig intill honom, kände hennes armar trycka honom till den halvblottade barm som hävdes av snyftningar, kände hennes läppar söka hans... och blicken från hennes ögon skimrade vällustigt genom tårarna. Hans krafter svek, sinnena förvirrades -- men ursinnig av passion och fasa fattade han dolken på golvet...
Aurora Ljungstedt (1821-1908) var en av landets mest populära och uppskattade författare, en mästare på skräckromantik och vår första krimdrottning -- hon anses ha skrivit den första svenska deckaren. Ändå glömdes hon bort i nära hundra år, varken ihågkommen bland litteraturvetare eller genrekonnässörer. Idag är hon återupptäckt och räknas som en av våra klassiska 1800-talsförfattare.
Hin Ondes hus (1853) var Aurora Ljungstedts debut som romanförfattare, ett gotiskt förväxlingsdrama om kärlek och förbjudna frukter. Den skräckromantiska stämningen blandas med underfundig humor och livfullt tecknade lantmiljöer liksom personligheter, men intrigen tar sakta karaktären av en helvetesmaskin -- förgångna tiders synder leder oundvikligen till fasa, död och vansinne.

Sju kortromaner och berättelser från ett 1800-tal ständigt belyst av månsken och vaxljus: En kvinnlig seriemördare biktar sig för en präst efter sin död. Utredningen av ett blodigt mord på en kyrkogård får en oväntad men logisk lösning. Änglamakerskans pojke blir vittne till ett våldsamt brott. Och nyårsbalens tolvslag kommer av sig vid ett besök från skuggornas värld. Dessa och ytterligare tre sällsamma berättelser om brott, mord och andeväsen kan läsas här. Aurora Ljungstedt (1821-1908) skrev skräck och kriminallitteratur. Trots att hon var Sveriges i särklass mest populära författare på 1800-talet blev hon närmast totalt bortglömd efter sin död. Hon återupptäcktes vid millennieskiftet och räknas nu åter som en av våra klassiska 1800-talsförfattare, unik och banbrytande genom sina val av motiv och teman.

Inbunden anteckningsbok i A5 med präglat hårdomslag och med fina folierade detaljer på omslaget. Boken stängs med en magnetisk kant och innehåller 176 elfenbensfärgade och linjerade sidor. Längst bak i boken finns en rymlig förvaringsficka för dina lösa papper. Två märkband i matchande färg gör att du lätt hittar bland dina anteckningar. Insidan av pärmen är klädd i rött papper och en kort historia står på sista sidan om konstnären Gocken Jobs.För de flesta är namnet Jobs synonymt med rikt blomstrande tyger som har varit klassiker inom svensk textilkonst sedan 1940-talet. Mindre känt är att Lisbet Jobs (1909–1961) och hennes syster Gocken Jobs (1914–1995) först utbildade sig till keramiker. Som två självständiga konstnärer arbetade de sedan sida vid sida och deras verk fick internationell berömmelse. Aurora designades för textil av Lisbet Jobs år 1956. Mönstret skapades i Leksand, Dalarna, där systrarna delade ateljé. Det är inspirerat av de omgivande blommande ängarna och blomsterbäddarna. Skisser för mönstret finns i Nationalmuseums arkiv i Stockholm, Sverige.

‘Fantastic story, a real page-turner. Impossible to put down’ Stephen King‘Forget a good night’s sleep. Aurora is epic’ Linwood Barclay*** When the lights go out no one is safe… A planet without power. When a solar storm hits the earth, the lights go out across the planet. But this time the blackout won’t be over soon – it could last for years. Aubrey and her stepson now face the biggest challenge of their lives. A society without rules. Soon they hear rumours of riots, the struggle for food becomes real, and even within their small communities, the rule of law is collapsing. Aubrey’s estranged brother Thom, a self-made billionaire who abandoned her years ago, retreats to a gilded desert bunker where he can ride out the crisis in perfect luxury. A race to build a better world… But the complicated history between the siblings is far from over, and what feels like the end of the world is just the beginning of a personal reckoning long overdue…***'Forget a good night’s sleep. Aurora is epic, but personal and poignant, horrifying and darkly funny, and flat-out suspenseful’ Linwood Barclay‘With Aurora, David Koepp has firmly staked his ground as one of the best thriller writers working today’ Blake Crouch‘Aurora contains two great narratives on a collision course.

Mixing humour, terror, and an all-too-believable doomsday scenario, Aurora is at the top of my list this year’ Christina Dalcher‘There’s a reason David Koepp is the most successful screenwriter of all time.

En tjuv lever växelvis som man och som kvinna, och blir folkhjälte på kuppen. En androgyn uppfattas som flicka ibland, pojke ibland, och blir älskad av alla hen träffar. Ett äkta par byter plats, men det gör hustrun till en idealkvinna och maken till en svekfull bedragerska. Den svenska 1800-talslitteraturen innehåller en mängd beskrivningar av människor som växlar, överskrider och utmanar kön. Där finns kvinnor som har varit män, män som har varit kvinnor, androgyner som varken är män eller kvinnor och andra som är både män och kvinnor, samtidigt eller om vartannat. Ändå har det inte pratats så mycket om translitteratur och ingen har skrivit någon svensk translitteraturhistoria. Förrän nu. I doktorsavhandlingen "Transformationer" analyseras bland annat stortjuven Lasse-Majas självbiografi, C.J.L. Almqvists klassiker "Drottningens juvelsmycke" och spänningsförfattaren Aurora Ljungstedts "Moderna typer". Det är en bred sammanställning av translitterära traditioner, men också en diskussion om läsningens möjligheter. "Transformationer" beskriver transmotiv under århundradet innan "trans" blev ett begrepp, en diagnos och en identitet. Det vi i dag kallar transidentiteter och -uttryck är sentida begrepp, som uppstod först under 1900-talet. Men långt innan dess har det funnits personer som överskridit könsgränser. Historien är full av människor som vi i dag skulle kalla transpersoner. Och skönlitteraturen är full av porträtt av dem. Hur skildras könsöverskridanden i äldre skönlitteratur? Hur kan vi läsa sådana texter idag? Och vad om något har 1800-talslitteraturen att göra med dagens transidentiteter? Sam Holmqvist är litteraturvetare vid Uppsala universitet och har tidigare bland annat varit förläggare på Rosenlarv förlag. "Transformationer: 1800-talets svenska translitteratur genom Lasse-Maja, C.J.L. Almqvist och Aurora Ljungstedt" är hens doktorsavhandling.

Previously published as THE PREFECT. A rollercoaster ride through the dark and turbulent universe of REVELATION SPACE: an interstellar thriller where nothing - and no one - is what they seem ...Tom Dreyfus is a Prefect, a policeman of sorts, and one of the best. His force is Panoply, and his beat is the multi-faceted utopian society of the Glitter Band, that vast swirl of space habitats orbiting the planet Yellowstone. These days, his job is his life.A murderous attack against a Glitter Band habitat is nasty, but it looks to be an open-and-shut case - until Dreyfus starts looking under some stones that some very powerful people would really rather stayed unturned. What he uncovers is far more serious than mere gruesome murder: a covert takeover bid by a shadowy figure, Aurora (who may once have been human but certainly isn't now), who believes the people of the Glitter Band should no longer be in charge of their own destiny.Dreyfus discovers that to save something precious, you may have to destroy part of it.'An adroit and fast-paced blend of space opera and police procedural, original and exciting' George R.
