The story opens on the day that the Western Roman Empire collapses finally in 470 AD, as the last emperor of Rome is encamped protected by the Nova Invicta Legion. All is lost in the space of a few minutes as a horde of Barbarians sweep through the camp in the fog, kill the Imperial family, and take the young emperor captive. The Roman Empire is in ruins. But all is not lost. From the dust of battlefields emerges a small team of invincible warriors: The Last Legion.

Story0
Sul vocabolario è scritto che l'omicidio è la soppressione di una vita umana ad opera di un altro essere umano. Poche parole, che tuttavia nulla dicono del movente, del mezzo e del legame tra l'assassino e la sua vittima. Ogni storia di un crimine è unica, ma ci sono casi che più di altri hanno segnato un'epoca, quando la spinta ad uccidere ha tratto origine da dinamiche personali, più o meno comprensibili, più o meno folli. Odio e gelosia, profitto e piacere... proiettili, lame e veleni. Due secoli di passioni e delitti, di persone e personaggi.

Sono criminali che non cercano violenza o sangue, ma il cui ingegno straordinario sa infliggere colpi magistrali al patrimonio e al nostro orgoglio. In Il potere dell'inganno, Carlo Lucarelli e Massimo Picozzi vi condurranno attraverso le menti più brillanti e tortuose della storia del crimine: da chi ha venduto due volte la Torre Eiffel a chi ha ingannato i nazisti con falsi Vermeer, da ladre di diamanti che hanno operato per sei decenni a falsari diventati eroi nazionali. Venti storie avvincenti che esplorano il lato oscuro del genio umano, dove l'inganno diventa arte.

What is it about Stoicism that Marcus found so important then, and that millions find relevant today? In the 12 fascinating lectures of Books That Matter: Meditations, professor Massimo Pigliucci explores the questions Marcus believed were crucial to address in a life of value, the answers he proposed, and the many ways in which you can use Stoic philosophy. While Meditations was originally written for an audience of just one, what Marcus wanted to examine certainly still applies to us today. What exactly should we be mindful of in this life?

Al centro di questo audiolibro c’è il rapporto della vita umana con l’esperienza traumatica della perdita. Cosa accade dentro di noi quando perdiamo chi abbiamo profondamente amato? Quale vuoto si spalanca? Quale lavoro ci attende per ritornare a vivere? E cosa avviene quando questo lavoro risulta impossibile e ci sentiamo persi insieme a chi abbiamo perduto? Il lavoro del lutto e la nostalgia sono due esempi di come possiamo restare vicini a ciò che abbiamo perduto senza però farci inghiottire dal dolore.

Why do people believe bunk? And what causes them to embrace such pseudoscientific beliefs and practices? Noted skeptic Massimo Pigliucci sets out to separate the fact from the fantasy in this entertaining exploration of the nature of science, the borderlands of fringe science, and - borrowing a famous phrase from philosopher Jeremy Bentham - the nonsense on stilts.

L'Impero che Marco Aurelio ha ereditato è giunto alla sua massima espansione e mantenere la pace che ha regnato sotto Antonino Pio è ormai impossibile: dopo la guerra contro i Parti, ora sono i Germani a minacciare Roma premendo da nord.Nel 167 d.C., l'Imperatore filosofo dà inizio alle guerre marcomanniche sotto auspici infausti e ben presto il suo progetto di stabilizzare i confini settentrionali si scontra con il leggendario furor teutonicus. Ma non è solo la spaventosa forza di quelle popolazioni a sfibrare le legioni romane.

Il tempo del dialogo è tramontato: ogni speranza di pace è stata troncata dal sibilo crudele delle asce. La confederazione dei pitti si prepara a muovere contro le legioni di Roma, decisa a soffocarle nel sangue. In bilico tra due mondi incapaci di conciliarsi, Annio, Giulia, Deirdre e Drest vivranno ore disperate, in cui ciascuno di loro dovrà scegliere una volta per tutte da che parte stare.

"Fai bei sogni" è la storia di un segreto celato in una busta per quarant'anni. Un bambino, poi adulto, imparerà ad affrontare il dolore più grande, la perdita della mamma, e il mostro più insidioso: il timore di vivere. Il protagonista di questo romanzo è una persona che cammina sulla punta dei piedi e a testa bassa, perché il cielo lo spaventa, e allo stesso modo fa la terra.
