"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort."

The hobbit-hole in question belongs to one Bilbo Baggins, an upstanding member of a "little people, about half our height, and smaller than the bearded dwarves." He is, like most of his kind, well off, well fed, and best pleased when sitting by his own fire with a pipe, a glass of good beer, and a meal to look forward to. Certainly this particular hobbit is the last person one would expect to see set off on a hazardous journey; indeed, when Gandalf the Grey stops by one morning, "looking for someone to share in an adventure," Baggins fervently wishes the wizard elsewhere. No such luck, however; soon 13 fortune-seeking dwarves have arrived on the hobbit's doorstep in search of a burglar, and before he can even grab his hat or an umbrella, Bilbo Baggins is swept out his door and into a dangerous adventure.

The dwarves' goal is to return to their ancestral home in the Lonely Mountains and reclaim a stolen fortune from the dragon Smaug. Along the way, they and their reluctant companion meet giant spiders, hostile elves, ravening wolves--and, most perilous of all, a subterranean creature named Gollum from whom Bilbo wins a magical ring in a riddling contest. It is from this life-or-death game in the dark that J.R.R. Tolkien's masterwork, The Lord of the Rings, would eventually spring. Though The Hobbit is lighter in tone than the trilogy that follows, it has, like Bilbo Baggins himself, unexpected iron at its core. Don't be fooled by its fairy-tale demeanor; this is very much a story for adults, though older children will enjoy it, too. By the time Bilbo returns to his comfortable hobbit-hole, he is a different person altogether, well primed for the bigger adventures to come--and so is the reader. --Alix Wilber --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

To the very few officials who ever saw the package of documents which arrived anonymously at the Ministry of Justice in Bonn in 1964, the list of names therein became known as "The Odessa File". Journalist, Peter Miller, vows to hunt down and expose the SS killers under the Odessa's protection.

Frederick Forsyth's extraordinary way of writing spellbinding novels may be the natural outgrowth of a vigorously adventuresome and unusually challenging career in international investigative journalism. Written in hotels in Austria and Germany during the fall of 1971,THE ODESSA FILE is based on its author's life experiences as a Reuters man reporting from London, Paris, and East Berlin in the early 1960s.

The Odessa of this title is not a city in Russia or a town in Texas but an acronym for the secret organization which has, with a large measure of success, protected the identities and advanced the destinies of former members of Hitler's dreaded SS in and out of Germany since shortly before the end of World War II. One of the rare major defeats it has suffered came in the spring of 1964, when a packet of dossiers arrived anonymously at the Ministry of Justice in Bonn. How and why a once carefree young German free-lance journalist named Peter Miller came to send the packet is told in this brilliant new extrapolation from reality into terror.

Внимание, книга на английском языке!

In a remote corner of Zangaro, a small republic in Africa, lies Crystal Mountain. At certain times of the day the mountain emits a strange glow. Only Sir James Manson knows why. The mountain contains ten billion dollar's worth of the world's most valuable mineral, platinum. Now the only question is, how to get hold of it. Sir James knows how. Invade the country with a band of savage, cold-blooded mercenaries. Topple the government and set up a puppet dictatorship. Unleash the dogs of war. "A super thriller. . .as instantly enthralling as the Day of the Jackal."

"Knocking off a bank or an armored truck is merely crude. Knocking off an entire republic has, I feel, a certain style." So says mining magnate Sir JamesManson, a shadowy titan of the City (London's financial district) who schemes a coup d'Ttat in Zangaro, a small West African dictatorship where a secret source of platinum lies waiting to be exploited. If the goal is clear, the means are not, for there are no up-to-date manuals on overthrowing governments by force. By the time he has set forth this sinister venture in all its ramifications, Frederick Forsyth has fashioned that manual and given us a classic of terror and enthrallment.

The man selected to plan and carry out the sack of Zangaro is Cat Shannon, an Anglo-Irishman, aged thirty-three, late of Nigeria and the Congo. There is a deadly parallel about the ways Sir James and Cat set about their tasks: one shuttling between London and Zurich, manipulating currencies and stocks and using all the shady ploys of international finance; the other ranging all over Europe, hiring his small force of fellow ex-mercs, buying and shipping arms under false colors, moving his mini-army south against a hundred-day deadline, and planning the final blow with a brilliant precision that does not allow for the tiniest slip of timing or tactics.

An adventure thriller in which an anonymous Englishman who in the spring of 1963, was hired by Colonel Marc Rodin, Operations Chief of the OAS to assassinate General De Gaulle.

France, infuriated by Charles de Gaulle's withdrawal from Algeria, had failed in six known attempts to assassinate the General. This book assumes that the seventh, most deadly, attempt involved a professional killer-for-hire who would be unknown to the French police. The code name of this killer: Jackal. His price: half a million dollars. His demand: total secrecy, even from his employers.

Step by painstaking step we follow the Jackal in his meticulous planning, from the fashioning of a collapsible but powerful rifle, the theft of passports, the forging of documents, the devising of alternate identities, to the laying out of his maze-like approach to the time and the place where the General is to meet the Jackal's specially-made bullet.

Though he cannot know it, the main obstacle standing athwart his path is a small, diffident, and rumpled policeman, Deputy Commissaire Claude Lebel. Lebel's boss considers him the best detective in France, but he himself cannot feel much confidence as he begins to track down a killer he knows exists but whose plans and identity are-a blank. Deliberately, with round-the-clock assistance from police all over Europe and in London and America, Lebel pieces together the Jackal's image. As the last second approaches, when the Jackal's crosshairs come to rest on that unmistakable profile, it is all the listener can do not to cry out in warning.

Suspense master Frederick Forsyth, author of Dogs of War, The Day of the Jackal and The Odessa File, brings another ingeniously-crafted thriller to the screen. A major movie from Lorimar starring Michael Caine and Pierce Bronsan.

The title refers to the 1968 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which contained four secret protocols. The fourth was meant to prohibit the non-conventional delivery of nuclear weapons i.e. by means other than being dropped from aircraft or carried on ballistic missiles. This included postal delivery services or being assembled in secret close to the target before being detonated.

A full-cast BBC Radio 4 dramatisation of an Agatha Christie story. On a flight from Le Bourget to Croydon, on which Hercule Poirot is an apprehensive passenger, a woman is found dead. A doctor on board is inclined to put it down to a wasp-sting, but Poirot suspects that a poisoned dart is the real cause - and, perhaps rather too conveniently, a blow pipe is dicovered stuffed down the back of his seat. Clearly the murder can only have been committed by one of the passengers or crew on the plane. But which one? Poirot, Japp and M. Fournier of the Surete will make their way through shoals of red herrings before reaching an utterly unexpected conclusion.

A BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation starring John Moffatt as Hercule Poirot. Mr Shaitana was famous as a flamboyant party host. Nevertheless he was a man of whom everybody was a little afraid. So, when he boasted to Poirot that he considered murder an art form, the detective had some reservations about accepting a party invitation to view Shaitana's private collection.

Отличнейшая (как всегда) постановка BBC Radio. Гарантирую - поймут даже выпускники средней школы... ну если не двоечники, конечно.
