The Confederates win the Civil War with aid from South African time travelers in this unconvincing "what-if" tale. Using a time machine, Andrew Rhoodie and his cadre of white supremacists from A.D. 2014 join the rebels and supply them with AK-47 assault rifles. Rhoodie's "America Will Break" brotherhood hopes to foster a haven for slavery and extreme racism that will last into succeeding centuries. Thus armed, Gen. Robert E. Lee's troops are soon victorious, and Lincoln agrees to divide the nation. Lee wins political office in the South, and, ironically, becomes both a proponent of emancipation and a foe of the bigoted visitors from the future. Turtledove ( Krispos Rising ) might win over some Civil War buffs through his knowledge of historical figures and events. But stilted dialogue, slack pacing and thin characters diminish the book's appeal.... v angličtine,obal,tvrdá väzba,560 strán

James, Fabulous Feline

Spisovatel: Hahn Harriet, Headline 1993
Katalogové číslo: E4321

The silver-gray, aristocratic feline with extraordinary abilities proves his mettle again in this lighthearted follow-up to James, the Connoisseur Cat . Versatile James detects philatelic forgeries at Thwaites, the London auction house where he works. He also coaches a croquet team, supervises rehearsals of a sequel to the musical Cats , helps deliver a baby and tracks down precious statuettes in Argentina. Hahn's clipped, clean, no-nonsense prose invites readers to suspend disbelief while James struts his stuff as a film actor, sleuth, psychiatrist, set designer, minister at a wedding and star witness in a criminal trial at the Old Bailey. Although the human characters are two-dimensional props in an amusing feline extravaganza, cat-lovers will enjoy the antics of this likable, albeit snobbish adventurer.... v angličtine, brožovaná, 215 strán
