2. Carlsen The Five Crowns of Okrith 2: The Witches Blade
A magical sword. A powerful curse. And a burning continent...
Eighteen-year-old Ruadora Dammacus suddenly finds herself in possession of the Immortal Blade, an ancient artifact with the power to destroy everything – and possibly the only chance to end the cruel oppression threatening her land. However, Rua soon realizes that the fight has only just begun. For the uncle of the northern court king is not only alive but has also cursed the army of the blue witches.
All hope of breaking the curse over the blue witches seems to rest on Rua, and she ventures into the enemy's court, where she is forced to work closely alongside the young king. The most dangerous part, however, is not the proximity to the enemy, but the fact that she can't get the charming northern king out of her mind. These feelings could mean her death and thus the downfall of her people.
As if that weren't enough, Rua must prove herself worthy of the Immortal Blade, whose magic threatens to overwhelm her...
The viral sensation full of romance and adventure continues! The gripping second novel in the Five Crowns of Okrith series follows the Fae princess Rua as she teams up with a truly unlikely ally. The Witches Blade is the second installment in a four-part series filled with intrigue, magic, and passion.

8. Carlsen Woher wir Menschen kommen
In the beginning, there was no life on Earth. It was a truly hot and noisy place. That was about 4.5 billion years ago. Since then, a lot has changed on Earth, and it has become a livable place for humans, animals, and plants. In a wonderful time-lapse, the authors and the illustrator guide us through the history of evolution. And one thing will be clear to every viewer – whether big or small – at the end: The Earth does not need us humans; it will continue to exist after us, but we cannot exist without it.
