The Life, Death and Legacy of Jon Nödtveidt and Dissection. (S. Monleón). Denna biografi skildrar Jon Nödtveidt, ledare för Dissection, vars två arv formade extremmetal och ockult filosofi. Musikaliskt förenade han 90-talets Death och Black Metal i en unik stil helgad åt satanism, där musik och ideologi smälte samman. Andligt levde han efter sina esoteriska övertygelser med fullständig äkthet, och lämnade ett bestående avtryck både i musiken och den mörka filosofi han omfamnade. 240 sidor, Inbunden bok.

Lagom (pronounced 'lah-gom') has no equivalent in the English language but is loosely translated as 'not too little, not too much, just right'. It is widely believed that the word comes from the Viking term 'laget om', for when a mug of mead was passed around a circle and there was just enough for everyone to get a sip. But while the anecdote may hit the nail on the head, the true etymology of the word points to an old form of the word 'lag', which means 'law'.<br/><br/>Far from restrictive, lagom is a liberating concept, praising the idea that anything more than 'just enough' is a waste of time. Crucially it also comes with a selflessness and core belief of responsibility and common good.
