Solo er sjette bind i serien om Axel Steen. For Solo er Jesper Stein af Det Danske Kriminalakademi blevet tildelt Harald Mogensen-prisen for året bedste danske krimi. Solo er dermed også nomineret til den prestigefyldte nordiske krimipris Glasnøglen. Axel Steen er blevet gift og har fået nyt job som sikkerhedsrådgiver i en investeringsbank. En medarbejder har snydt, og Axel skal sørge for, at manden bliver afskediget uden myndighedernes indblanding. Det sætter gang i en fatal kæde af begivenheder i en verden, hvor penge er gud, og Axels sans for retfærdighed bliver sat under pres som aldrig før. Krigen i Syrien er på sit højeste, og flygtningene strømmer ind over grænsen. I Urbanplanen bliver en ung indvandrer med banderelationer fundet myrdet, og Vicki Thomsen skal opklare sagen i et miljø, hvor intet er, som det ser ud, og ingen vil tale med politiet. Hun kontakter sin gamle ven og mentor, Axel Steen, som kendte den dræbte, men Axel har klippet alle bånd til sit gamle liv. Den sjette Axel Steen-krimi foregår i et delt Danmark, hvor de rigeste selv bestemmer reglerne og udøver deres egen retfærdighed, mens de fattige kæmper for at overleve og skabe sig en fremtid i en verden i brand.

Maden går SOLO. Velsmagende, hyggelig og æstetisk aftensmad for én person med kloge råd til at mindske madspild, anvende råvarer på nye måder og købe overvejet og lækkert ind. Det bedste ved kun at lave mad til dig selv er, at du kan lave dine egne favoritter – sæt dig til bords med en velanrettet tallerken og bevar respekten om det sunde måltid. Så spiser du godt i eget selskab. Ditte bor alene, efter at hun mistede sin mand. Det betød, at Ditte måtte finde en anden måde at lave og spise mad på, og det var ikke uden udfordringer. SOLO er til dig, som kun er én i husholdningen, så det bliver både nemt, sjovt og indbydende at lave mad til sig selv.

Don't miss the exclusive content in this thrilling adaptation of Solo: A Star Wars Story , with scenes from alternate versions of the script including Han Solo's time in the Imperial Navy, Qi'ra's past, the beginnings of the rebellion, and more Though Han Solo has thrilled Star Wars fans for decades, the notorious wisecracking scoundrel was chasing adventure and dodging trouble long before he walked into the cantina at Mos Eisley spaceport. Young Han dreams of someday soaring into space at the helm of his own starship and leaving his home, the gritty industrial planet Corellia, far behind. But as long as he's trapped in a life of poverty and crime--and under the thumb of the sinister Lady Proxima and her brutal street gang--reaching the distant stars seems impossible. When Han tries to escape with his girlfriend and partner-in-crime, Qi'ra, he makes it out--but she doesn't. Desperate for a way to find his own offworld vessel and free her, Han enlists in the Imperial Navy--the last place for a rebellious loner who doesn't play well with others. When the Empire clips his wings, Han goes rogue and plunges into the shady world of smugglers, gamblers, and con artists. There he meets the charming and cunning high roller Lando Calrissian, makes an unlikely friend in a cantankerous Wookiee called Chewbacca, and first lays eyes on the Millennium Falcon. To snag his piece of the outlaw pie, Han joins a crew of pirates to pull off a risky heist. The stakes are high, the danger is great, and the odds are slim. But never tell Han Solo the odds. Praise for Solo: A Star Wars Story "Mur Lafferty has given us the best adaptation of a Star Wars film yet." -- Star Wars News Net "If you liked the movie but were left wanting more, this novel has exactly what you need." -- CNET "A fun adventure tale within the larger Star Wars franchise that goes beyond the run-of-the-mill novelization treatment to explore a new bit of the world that we haven't yet seen." -- The Verge

"Brilliant and provocative, Solo transcends the loneliness narrative surrounding single life. It's not just about being OK with being alone; it's about the incredible freedom and endless opportunities that come with it. McGraw combines science and wisdom to unlock the secrets that Solos have always known: life is richer when you are the hero of your own story." —Kristin Newman, author of What I was Doing While You Were Breeding Join the movement that celebrates single living with Peter McGraw's groundbreaking book, Solo . Amid the complexities of modern relationships, loneliness epidemics, and online dating burnout, there's a refreshing alternative: going Solo. Solos, as coined by behavioral economist Peter McGraw, are people who choose to lead their lives authentically, purposefully, and passionately outside the confines of traditional relationship labels. In a world built for two, Solos break the rules and hold space for every type of individual—single and not. Meet the thriving Just Mays, who welcome romance if it comes their way, the determined No Ways, who prefer life unpartnered, and the bold New Ways, who redefine and redesign what relationships even mean. Which one are you? In contrast with the Someday singles who hang personal fulfilment on the success of a serious long-term relationship, McGraw reveals the secrets of happiness that Solos have already unlocked, offering readers a roadmap to reinventing sex, dating, romance, and beyond. Backed by scientific insights and McGraw's experience as a lifelong bachelor, Solo offers a blueprint for cultivating fulfilling relationships and creating a rich, remarkable life. Solo is your invitation to pursue a life uniquely your own.

The incredible story of a six-continent journey of self-discovery Jenny Tough is an endurance athlete who's best known for running and cycling in some of world's most challenging events - achieving accolades that are an inspiration to outdoor adventurers everywhere. But SOLO tells the story of a much more personal project: Jenny's quest to come to terms with feelings and emotions that were holding her back. Like runners at any level, she knew already that running made her feel better, and like so many of us, she knew that completing goals independently was empowering, too. So she set herself an audacious objective: to run - solo, unsupported, on her own - across mountain ranges on six continents, starting with one of the most remote locations on Earth in Kyrgystan. SOLO chronicles Jenny's journey every step of the way across the Tien Shaw (Asia), the High Atlas (Africa), the Cordillera Oriental (South America), the Southern Alps (Oceania), the Canadian Rockies (North America) and the Transylvanian Alps (Europe), as she learns lessons in self-esteem, resilience, bravery and so much more. What Jenny's story tells us most of all is that setting out to do things solo - whether the ambitious or the everyday - can be invigorating, encouraging and joyful. And her call to action to find strength, confidence and self-belief in everything we do will inspire and motivate.
