The Life, Death and Legacy of Jon Nödtveidt and Dissection. (S. Monleón). Denna biografi skildrar Jon Nödtveidt, ledare för Dissection, vars två arv formade extremmetal och ockult filosofi. Musikaliskt förenade han 90-talets Death och Black Metal i en unik stil helgad åt satanism, där musik och ideologi smälte samman. Andligt levde han efter sina esoteriska övertygelser med fullständig äkthet, och lämnade ett bestående avtryck både i musiken och den mörka filosofi han omfamnade. 240 sidor, Inbunden bok.

<b>For the first time, Charlie Sheen - the star of </b><i><b>Platoon</b></i><b>, </b><i><b>Wall Street</b></i><b>, </b><i><b>Major League</b></i><b> and </b><i><b>Two and a Half Men - </b></i><b>writes the story of his extraordinary life in an unfiltered memoir.</b><br/><br/><i>'We can live the stories or hear about them later from others. I choose the former.'</i><br/><br/>Charlie Sheen shouldn't be alive to write this book. But in <i>The Book of Sheen</i>, the movie and TV star, who has defied the odds, finally presents his story, in his own words. Charlie Sheen was born the third of four children to actor Martin Sheen and his wife, Janet. He grew up on film sets - from his father's all over the world, to his own in Malibu. There, he made ambitious Super 8s, with a roster of friends who went on to become household names, including his brother Emilio, Sean and Chris Penn and the Lowe brothers.<br/><br/>Sheen broke into movies in the 1980s, playing a hoodlum in <i>Ferris Bueller's Day Off</i>, a young soldier in <i>Platoon</i> and an ethically compromised trader in <i>Wall Street</i>. But somewhere along the way, despite a successful transition to TV leading man in <i>Spin City </i>and <i>Two and a Half Men</i>, Sheen descended into a vortex of extracurricular activities.<br/><br/>Now sober, Sheen delivers a clear-eyed narrative of his highs and lows with humour, candour and a vivid, captivating writing style that is uniquely his. <i>The Book of Sheen</i> reads like a far-fetched, overstuffed novel of Hollywood life - yet it is all true.

<b>Few expected Donald Trump to return to the White House stronger than before. </b>The indictments, convictions, assassination attempts, and four years of political exile made him not weaker but more powerful, more vengeful, and more willing to gamble than any President that came before him.<br/><br/><i>Regime Change </i>is the definitive account of the first year of Donald Trump's second presidency, based on hundreds of interviews and unprecedented reporting from deep within the administration's most closely guarded rooms. Journalists Jonathan Swan and Maggie Haberman investigate the decisions that have defined Trump's second term, which has been liberated from every constraint that defined his first. The generals who once told him 'no' are gone, and the lawyers who remain have learned to pick their battles.<br/><br/>Haberman and Swan take you behind the scenes of a presidency that has launched a new war in the Middle East, sealed the border, deployed National Guard troops into American cities, transformed the Justice Department into an instrument of retribution against the President's enemies, and turned the office itself into a brazen vehicle for profit. They reveal a President operating almost entirely on instinct and a White House operating at the edge of political power.<br/><br/><i>Regime Change </i>shows how Trump has wielded that power, who has tried to stop him, and why nearly all of them have failed.<b> A landmark work of real-time political history, this is the story of a President who has fundamentally altered how the world understands American power.</b>
