Exploring the nostalgia of the past, the narrative questions whether life truly was better in earlier times. It delves into the complexities of memory and idealization, contrasting the perceived simplicity of the past with the challenges of the present. Through reflective storytelling, the book invites readers to reconsider their assumptions about progress and the value of contemporary life, ultimately challenging the notion that the past was inherently superior.
Greg Heffley is not willing to be the odd man out. A dance at Greg's middle school has everyone scrambling to find a partner, and Greg is determined not to be left by the wayside. So he concocts a desperate plan to find someone--anyone!--to go with on the big night. But Greg's schemes go hilariously awry, and his only option is to attend the dance with his best friend, Rowley Jefferson, and a female classmate as a "group of friends." But the night is long, and anything can happen along the way. Who will arrive at the dance triumphantly, and who will end up being the third wheel?
Im Dorf Illthwaite wird das Leben durch das Erscheinen von Sam Flood, einer Australierin mit einer bewegten Familiengeschichte, und Miguel Madero, einem ehemaligen Priester auf der Suche nach seinen Wurzeln, erschüttert. Beide sind in Gefahr, während sie ein dunkles Geheimnis des Dorfes und des Fremdenhauses aufdecken.
DEATH MOON! Crack Lieutenant Dominic Flandry was not a man easily swayed from his duty to the Empire... not, that is, until galactic vice king Leon Ammon offered him a million credit bribe, a voluptuous woman called Djana, and a commission to explore a dark and treasureladen moon. But within the desolate peaks and valleys of that strange world of ice and shadow, Flandry found more he had bargained for. Supposedly barren, the planet swarmed with a hideous race of strange, inhuman creatures... infernally controlled by a deranged and brilliant computer brain. Each creature, like a piece in a bizarre and lethal chess game, was programmed to kill. And although Flandry did not know it – so was the woman he loved...
