Der Welt-Bestseller von Michael Ende für Kinder und Jugendliche ab 12 Jahren.Bastian Balthasar Bux entdeckt in einer Buchhandlung ein geheimnisvolles Buch, "Die unendliche Geschichte". Begeistert liest er von den Abenteuern des Helden Atréju und seinem gefährlichen Auftrag: Phantásien und seine Herrscherin, die Kindliche Kaiserin, zu retten. Zunächst nur Zuschauer, findet er sich unversehens selbst in Phantásien wieder. TU WAS DU WILLST lautet die Inschrift auf dem Symbol der unumschränkten Herrschaftsgewalt. Doch was dieser Satz in Wirklichkeit bedeutet, erfährt Bastian erst nach einer langen Suche. Denn seine wahre Aufgabe ist es nicht, Phantásien zu beherrschen, sondern wieder herauszufinden. Wie aber verlässt man ein Reich, das keine Grenzen hat?

Ordinary Men has been admired all over the world and is now published in the UK for the first time. It takes as its basis the detailed records of one squad from the Nazis' extermination groups and explores in detail its composition, its actions, andthe methods by which it was trained to perform acts of genocide on an industrial scale. He introduces us to cheerful, friendly, ordinary men who killed without hesitation or apparent remorse for years on end, in docile obedience to an authority theyhappily accepted as legitimate. It is a valuable corrective to the idea of German uniqueness and offers a much more chilling picture of human beings as avidly suggestible and desperate for an organising purpose in their lives, however disgusting.

• Designs for 56 Iron Age bands • Illustrations of original archaeological finds • Completely new tablet-weaving technique discovered • From tiny finishing bands to spectacular belt bands Finland has a unique tablet weaving culture dating back a thousand years to the Finnish Iron Age when weavers created incredibly elaborate bands. Thanks to new, thorough research by the authors, these bands and their weaving techniques are now revived for the modern people to admire and to weave. Tablet weaving has a simple basic principle. A square tablet has a hole in each corner and yarns going through the holes. The threading direction, the colour of the yarns, the direction of the tablets, and the way they are turned – all of them affect the outcome: will the band be beautiful in its simplicity, or impressive in its intricacy. All the bands in this book are based on archaeological finds from Finland. Tablet-woven treasures buried in the ground a thousand years ago have come alive again.
