Na Londres desmazelada do pós-guerra, Dennis Knuckleyard, um jovem de 18 anos, tenta sobreviver em meio ao caos. Trabalhando em um sebo, ele passa seus dias negociando livros de segunda mão e lidando com a rabugenta Ada Benson, sua chefe. Um dia, após uma negociação lucrativa, Dennis encontra um livro que, teoricamente, não deveria existir. O que parecia apenas um curioso mistério logo se revela como a entrada para o Grande Durante, uma versão mágica e secreta de Londres, onde metáforas ganham vida, conceitos são personificados, e a linha entre ficção e realidade é quase inexistente.

Imagine a Britain stripped of democracy, a world of the not-too-distant future in which freedom has been surrendered willingly to a totalitarian regime which rose to power by exploiting the people's worst fears and most damning weaknesses.

In the half a square mile of decay and demolition that was England's Saxon capital, eternity is loitering between the firetrap tower blocks. Embedded in the grubby amber of the district's narrative, among its saints, kings, prostitutes and derelicts; a different kind of human time is happening...

Londres, 1958. Dennis Knuckleyard a laissé au passé ses aventures dans le Grand Quand. Pendant neuf ans, il a évité de penser à cette version alternative de Londres peuplée de terrifiantes merveilles et où toutes les époques se confondent... jusqu'au jour où une clé qu'il a secrètement rapportée de là-bas vient lui rappeler ses précédentes mésaventures. Mais le Grand Quand n'a pas dit son dernier mot.

Peacemakers. The Galactic Union’s most capable enforcers and resolute negotiators, their name alone elicits fear and awe among the Union’s citizenry. It doesn’t happen often, but when a Peacemaker can’t solve a case, it goes to the Peacemaker Archives, as all Peacemaker cold cases reside within “Bureau 42,” as it’s also known. Cases dealing with ghost ships, missing Peacemakers, mysterious killers, and even a few cases that aren’t even really cases can all be found in the files of Bureau 42. Fourteen authors present thirteen all-new stories from the depths of Bureau 42.

Nigel Shirazi, the Speaker of the Merc Guild, knows that war is coming and he’s not ready. He needs to build up the mercenary forces after years of war, and he’s proclaimed the Phoenix Initiative to give people who want to start new companies the opportunity to do so. CASPers are cheaper and financed at lower rates, and the government of Earth is offering bounties to take the mercs from alien races off the planet. Now is the time!

El mundo de los negocios está cambiando. La búsqueda exclusiva de "ganancias a cualquier precio" está siendo reemplazada por el deseo de construir empresas con propósito, que creen un futuro mejor y sean comercialmente exitosas. Tras años de investigación sobre algunas de las empresas más pioneras y progresistas del mundo, y a través de las conversaciones que ha tenido con sus fundadores, Moore descubre que es posible liderar con generosidad, tener una cadena de suministro transparente, diseñar productos y servicios bellos y respetuosos, y crear una cultura empresarial en la que las personas prosperen.

¡Son tantas las cosas que pasan desapercibidas! Realizamos muchas tareas simultáneamente, cambiamos de una pantalla a otra, trabajamos rápido. Pero ¿te has preguntado cuándo fue la última vez que hiciste una pausa para apreciar un objeto bello o un paisaje cautivador? Y sin embargo, estos son los momentos en los que nuestro espíritu se eleva. El diseñador Alan Moore nos invita a reflexionar no solo sobre lo que producimos -un sitio web, una silla o un negocio-, sino también sobre el cómo y el porqué. Y nos anima a aportar valor, utilidad y belleza en aquello que hagamos.

L'un des écrivains les plus influents de toute l'histoire des comics nous offre un ouvrage « merveilleux, brillant et souvent émouvant » (Neil Gaiman), qui nous emmène dans l'envers occulte et fantastique de la réalité. Avec son tout premier recueil de nouvelles, couvrant quarante années d'activité, Alan Moore nous présente une palette de personnages aussi variés qu'inoubliables qui découvrent - et dans certains cas, font et défont - la trame diverse et encore largement inexplorée de l'existence. Dans la première des nouvelles, la relation intime entre deux spécialistes de l'amour sorcier connaît de tragiques ramifications.

London has harbored many curious characters, but few more curious than the artist and visionary Austin Osman Spare (1886-1956). A controversial enfant terrible of the Edwardian art world, the young Spare was hailed as a genius and a new Aubrey Beardsley, while George Bernard Shaw reportedly said "Spare's medicine is too strong for the average man." But Spare was never made for worldly success and he went underground, falling out of the gallery system to live in poverty and obscurity south of the river.

The galaxy has opened up to humanity as a hyperactive beehive of stargates and new technologies, and we suddenly find ourselves in a vast playground of different races, environments, and cultures. Enter the Four Horsemen universe, where only a willingness to fight and die for money separates humans from the majority of the other races. Enter a galaxy not only of mercenaries, but also of aliens, hired assassins, and accountants. Accountants?

From the outside, The Lyon’s Den doesn’t look like much; there isn’t even a sign. But Mercs of all species know that if you head to Southwest Houston, near the Starport, there’s a particular run-down strip mall that looks like it’s been abandoned for years. The glass door second from the south end of the strip is plastered over on the inside with blue paper, and the faint golden outline of a rampant lion is the only clue.
