Story
Ernst Röhm, un influente uomo politico e militare tedesco, è stato un gerarca nazista considerato profondamente atipico per via della sua dichiarata omosessualità. Questo saggio ripercorre la sua vita, la sua carriera nelle SA, le sue tendenze sadiche e violente, narrandone le vicende con l'aiuto sceneggiature originali. Ed è in questo modo che l'autore crea una perfetta cornice atta a rappresentare la controversa amicizia del colonnello con Adolf Hitler, che si concluderà con l'uccisione di Röhm proprio per mano dello spietato dittatore.

Story
Tra tutti i gerarchi nazisti, Rudolf Hess è assolutamente unico nel suo genere. Nessuno sano di mente potrebbe mai trovare nulla di positivo in Hitler, in Goebbels, in Heydrich. Rudolf Hess è forse l'unico, tra i grandi gerarchi nazisti, il cui giudizio continua a dividere. Hess ha commesso molti crimini terribili, e li ha pagati tutti duramente. Per anni è stato considerato l'unico vero amico di Hitler, ed è stato tra i teorici dello "Spazio Vitale", il teorema con il quale la Germania si arrogava il diritto di invadere i territori ad est dei propri confini.

Story
Chi era Gaio Giulio Cesare? Dall'esilio volontario per sfuggire alla mano di Silla, all'inizio della sua carriera politica e al pontificato nell'Antica Roma, dalla congiura di Catilina alla campagna in Gallia, dal passaggio del Rubicone alla campagna africana e agli attimi precedenti il tragico epilogo delle Idi di marzo. Questo saggio storico ripercorre la storia del grande Imperatore e i momenti cruciali della sua vita. Una vita dedicata interamente al suo Impero romano, guidata dalla fortuna e dalla consapevolezza che il destino è racchiuso in un lancio di dadi.

Story
Come è potuto nascere il movimento nazionalsocialista? Chi era davvero Adolf Hitler? I gerarchi intorno a lui erano davvero tutti dei mostri? E chi ha partorito l'idea della "soluzione finale" contro gli ebrei? Questo racconto ripercorre per intero la storia del nazismo tedesco. Una analisi della sua nascita, tra la rabbia e l'umiliazione per la sconfitta nella prima guerra mondiale, passando per la sua cavalcata verso il potere e la conquista dell'Europa.

Story
Londra, 28 Novembre 1962. E’ una piovosa serata di fine autunno, gelida e cupa. Due giovani avventori del locale "The Star" si stanno godendo gli ultimi minuti di una serata blues. Il chitarrista del gruppo è un tipo strano, cupo, eccentrico. La sua terribile storia è una storia di sopravvivenza estrema contro il male; la Storia di un sopravvissuto al campo di sterminio di Mauthausen. Un'audio fiction ispirata ad eventi realmente accaduti sugli orrori dei nazifascismi in Europa.

Story
Francisco Franco è stato un dittatore. Il suo regime, chiamato franchismo e di chiaro stampo fascista, ha afflitto la Spagna per buona parte del Novecento. A partire dal 1939, anno in cui Franco emerse vincitore dalla guerra civile, fino alla sua morte nel 1975, il Generalissimo ha controllato qualsiasi aspetto della società spagnola. A partire dalla moralità, fino alla sfera amorosa, la famiglia, la religione, il lavoro - tutto doveva superare il veto di Franco. Chi non seguiva la linea era escluso.

Da quasi un secolo la storia di Anna Frank continua a emozionare e sorprendere. Il suo volto è divenuto simbolo della shoah, dell'olocausto, una tragedia collettiva che ha sapientemente documentato con il celebre Diario di Anne Frank, letto da milioni di persone in tutto il mondo. Durante la Seconda guerra mondiale, Anne ha dovuto affrontare la brutalità di Hitler, vivendo l'orrore di quello che è stato il campo di concentramento di Auschwitz. La sua breve vita, iniziata a Francoforte sul Meno, è stata infine stroncata dal nazismo nel campo di sterminio di Bergen-Belsen.

Story
L'Imperatore romano Nerone è associato principalmente alla nefasta catastrofe che lui stesso provocò: il grave incendio che divorò Roma Antica nel 64 d.C. Ma chi era davvero Nerone? Questo saggio storico ripercorre la vita dello spietato despota, mostrandone però anche il lato meno noto: vittima, da un lato, di una psiche disturbata che lo spinse a uccidere la sua stessa madre, fu dall'altro anche uomo pronto a schierarsi dalla parte del popolo. E sono state proprio le sue eroiche gesta a cambiare per sempre il corso della storia.

Story
Per un quarto di secolo (1929-1953) Iosif Stalin è stato il padrone assoluto dell'Unione Sovietica. Dall'ufficio al Cremlino, o dalle dacie fuori Mosca dove spesso risiedeva, il dittatore gestiva con pugno di ferro ogni aspetto della vita sociale, sulla base di un'interpretazione estremistica e ultrasemplificata del marxismo. Ossessionato dall'idea di "nemici interni" pronti a tradirlo, Stalin instaurò un regime di terrore che non permise mai a nessuno dei suoi sudditi di sentirsi al sicuro.

Heydrich è il gerarca più spietato del Terzo Reich, il macellaio di Praga, la bestia bionda. L'uomo dall'infanzia problematica, segnata da due traumi: da una parte la voce stridula e l'aspetto effeminato che gli valsero l'appellativo di capra, e dall'altra il mistero di una presenza ebraica all'interno della sua famiglia.

Story
A differenza delle altre figure di spicco del nazismo, la vita e la fama di Amon Göth ruotano tutte intorno alle sue azioni nei campi di concentramento. Quest'uomo dall'aspetto sgradevole, il fisico corpulento, gli occhi sempre accesi di ira, non ha davvero una vita all'infuori dei lager. Non ha talenti particolari, non ha interessi, non ha passioni vere e proprie. La sua esistenza è tutta legata alla guerra agli ebrei, all'antisemitismo, che gli permette di sfogare i suoi istinti peggiori, i suoi frequenti accessi di rabbia, di crudele sadismo.

Un uomo talmente innamorato di Hitler, delle sue idee e del suo mito, da sacrificare tutto per esso, da vivere costantemente della sua luce riflessa. E da spegnersi, ormai fantoccio senza fili, nel momento stesso in cui il suo burattinaio venne meno. Un viaggio alla scoperta del "Diavolo zoppo", il fragile ma instancabile megafono del nazismo.

Story
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares… but it turns out they're real.

Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

It’s a beautiful day in Newport, Rhode Island, when Phoebe Stone arrives at the grand Cornwall Inn wearing a green dress and gold heels, not a bag in sight, alone. She's immediately mistaken by everyone in the lobby for one of the wedding people, but she’s actually the only guest at the Cornwall who isn’t here for the big event. Phoebe is here because she’s dreamed of coming for years—she hoped to shuck oysters and take sunset sails with her husband, only now she’s here without him, at rock bottom, and determined to have one last decadent splurge on herself.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.

Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College-Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.
