It all begins with a hot air balloon trip and three bottles of champagne. Allan and Julius are ready for some spectacular views, but they’re not expecting to land in the sea and be rescued by a North Korean ship, and they could never have imagined that the captain of the ship would be harboring a suitcase full of contraband uranium, on a nuclear weapons mission for Kim Jong-un. Yikes. Soon Allan and Julius are at the center of a complex diplomatic crisis involving world figures from the Swedish foreign minister to Angela Merkel and President Trump. Needless to say, things are about to get very, very complicated. Another hilarious, witty, and entertaining novel from bestselling author Jonas Jonasson that will have readers howling out-loud at the escapades and misfortunes of its beloved hundred-year-old hero Allan Karlsson and his irresistible sidekick Julius. Еще один веселый, остроумный и занимательный роман от автора «Сто лет и чемодан денег в придачу». На этот раз любимый столетний персонаж Аллан Карлссон смеется над современными реалиями. Все начинается с полета на воздушном шаре и трех бутылок шампанского. Потом к сюжету подключается северокорейский корабль с контрабандой урана, и главный герой оказывается в центре дипломатического кризиса, в котором участвуют мировые политики от Ангелы Меркель до Дональда Трампа… В книге представлен текст на английском языке.

This edition presents all seven books — unabridged — in one impressive volume. The books are presented here according to Lewis’ preferred order, each chapter graced with an illustration by the original artist, Pauline Baynes. Deceptively simple and direct, «The Chronicles of Narnia» continue to captivate fans with adventures, characters, and truths that speak to readers of all ages, even fifty years after they were first published.Journeys to the end of the world, fantastic creatures, and epic battles between good and evil — what more could any reader ask for in one book?

When Andrea first sets foot in the plush Manhattan offices of Runway she knows nothing. She`s never heard of the world`s most fashionable magazine, or its feared and fawned-over editor, Miranda Priestly. Soon she knows way too much. She knows it`s a sacking offence to wear less than a three-inch heel to work — but there`s always a fresh pair of Manolos in the accessories cupboard. She knows that eight stone is fat. That you can charge anything — cars, manicures, clothes — to the Runway account, but you must never leave your desk, or let Miranda`s coffee get cold. That at 3 am, when your boyfriend`s dumping you because you`re always working and your best friend`s just been arrested, if Miranda phones with her latest unreasonable demand, you jump. Most of all, Andrea knows that Miranda is a monster boss who makes Cruella deVil look like a fluffy bunny. But this is her big break, and it`s all going to be worth it in the end.
