Have you ever wondered why that 13-digit number on the back of a book costs $125 in the United States but is completely free in Canada and India? This book, The Global ISBN Handbook, is your 2025 guide to the International Standard Book Number. It explains everything about this global "fingerprint" for books. The ISBN is the most important cornerstone of the publishing industry. It started as a simple warehouse tool in the 1960s. Now, it is a complex digital identifier used in over 200 countries. This handbook deconstructs the entire system. It uses 15 distinct national case studies to do this. You will learn how the old 10-digit system changed to the new 13-digit one. We break down the five parts of the ISBN, from the "Bookland" prefix to the final check digit. The book explores the global governance framework, starting with the International ISBN Agency. Then, it dives deep into how different countries run their systems. You'll see the privatized, high-cost model in the United States. You'll compare it to Canada's free, government-run system. We explore the industry-led models in Brazil and Germany. We look at government-run systems in Mexico and India. We even cover the unique case of China, where the ISBN is not a simple identifier but a state-controlled publication license. The book also examines the systems in the UK , France , Russia , Japan , Australia , South Africa , Nigeria , and Egypt. Many books and websites can tell you how to get an ISBN. This handbook is the only resource that explains why the process is so different everywhere you look. It moves beyond a simple "how-to" and provides a true global analysis. It directly compares the privatized, for-profit models in the US and UK against the free, public-good systems in Canada and South Africa. You won't just learn the price; you will understand the cultural policies, market structures, and legal philosophies that shape that price. This book shows how the ISBN is a "global mirror". It reveals how a simple number can be a commercial product in one nation , a tool of cultural policy in another , and an instrument of state control in a third. This comparative insight is the missing piece for any author, publisher, or researcher trying to navigate the complex international publishing market. Disclaimer: This handbook is an independently produced resource for commentary and analysis. The author has no affiliation with the International ISBN Agency, R.R. Bowker, Library and Archives Canada, the National Press and Publication Administration, or any other national ISBN agency. This work is independently produced under the principle of nominative fair use.

The Cruel Prince
Holly Black • 2018
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black, comes the first book in a stunning new series about a mortal girl who finds herself caught in a web of royal faerie intrigue. Of course I want to be like them. They're beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever. And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest. I hate him more than all the others. I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe. Jude was seven years old when her parents were murdered and she and her two sisters were stolen away to live in the treacherous High Court of Faerie. Ten years later, Jude wants nothing more than to belong there, despite her mortality. But many of the fey despise humans. Especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King. To win a place at the Court, she must defy him--and face the consequences. In doing so, she becomes embroiled in palace intrigues and deceptions, discovering her own capacity for bloodshed. But as civil war threatens to drown the Courts of Faerie in violence, Jude will need to risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters, and Faerie itself.

HAY AMORES QUE SON<br/>ODIO A PRIMERA VISTA<br/>Una comedia romántica a fuego lento, enemies to lovers, protagonizada por una sanadora excepcional y un asesino encantador.<br/>***PRIMERA EDICIĂ“N LIMITADA CON ACABADOS ESPECIALES***<br/><br/>Cuando Osric Mordaunt, miembro de la Orden Fyren de asesinos, resulta herido y comienza a perder su poder, se da cuenta de que necesita las habilidades de una sanadora en concreto. Y, como el destino tiene un oscuro sentido el humor, se trata de una integrante de la Orden Haelan, enemiga natural de los Fyren.<br/><br/>La orden de Aurienne Fairhrim está colapsada por una oleada de niños afectados por una enfermedad que se creĂa erradicada. Los Haelan, incapaces de conseguir la financiaciĂłn para encontrar una vacuna, están desesperados... Tanto que, cuando Osric se cuela en su fortaleza para chantajear a Aurienne y conseguir que esta le cure, ella se ve obligada a aceptar.<br/><br/>Y conforme Osric y Aurienne buscan tanto el milagro que lo salve a Ă©l como la procedencia de la misteriosa epidemia, descubren que, cuanto más abanican las llamas del odio que los une, más sube la temperatura entre ellos.<br/><br/>Los tropes de esta novela incluyen:<br/>Enemies to lovers<br/>Fuego lento (a alta temperatura)<br/>Dos idiotas altamente cualificados<br/>Él se enamora primero (y mucho más fuerte)<br/>Demostraciones de amor algo sangrientas<br/><br/>ENGLISH DESCRIPTION<br/><br/>This stunning hardcover features a cover with foil, beautifully designed endpapers, and a black-and-white interior map!<br/><br/>Loyalties are tested in this slow burn, enemies-to-lovers romantasy following an assassin and a healer forced to work together to cure a fatal disease, all while resisting the urge to kill each other—or, worse, fall in love.<br/><br/>When Osric Mordaunt, member of the Fyren Order of assassins, falls ill, he realizes he needs the expertise of a very specific healer. As fate would have it, that healer belongs to an enemy faction, the Haelan Order.<br/><br/>Aurienne Fairhrim and her fellow Haelan are inundated by sick children suffering from an outbreak of a long-forgotten Pox. Unable to get the funding needed to launch an immunization program, the Haelan Order is desperate for money – so desperate that when Osric breaks into their headquarters to bribe Aurienne to heal him, she is forced to accept.<br/><br/>As Osric and Aurienne work together to solve not only his illness but the mysterious reoccurrence of the Pox, they find themselves ardently denying their attraction which only fuels the tension between them.
