Dni
Etela Farkašová prináša texty, ktoré sú vo viacerých ohľadoch iné ako prevládajúci trend: pozornosť obracajú na bytosti stojace v úzadí, nevíťazné, nevyhrávajúce v životných bojoch, nezapadajúce do ideálu dnešných sebaistých a úspešných, dokonca na bytosti niečím vychýlené, „mimo normy“.
Novela DNI ponúka umelecky presvedčivo spracovaný príbeh matky a jej mentálne postihnutého syna, ide o nesmierne silný vzťah zachytený na pozadí ich každodenného života, do ktorého vstupuje množstvo problémov, starostí, ale aj nehy, lásky, spolupatričnosti… Dôležitou súčasťou prózy sú reflexie zmyslu či hodnoty ľudského života v kontexte súčasnosti zdôrazňujúcej najmä ekonomicky efektívne vonkajšie výkony. DNI popri vybrúsenom štýle charakterizuje myšlienková hĺbka i jemná lyrickosť.
„Keď sme sa približovali k domu, ozval sa, ma-ma, aj ja som na-še sl-nieč-ko?
Zaskočilo ma to, a keď som, s hrčou, ktorá mi pri jeho otázke naskočila v krku, hneď nereagovala, zopakoval to ešte raz, aj Fe-dor…?
Napokon som dostala zo seba strohé, pravdaže si, pravdaže aj ty… že sa pýtaš…
Po chvíli sa nanovo ohlásil, ma-ma, ale tete si to ne-po- -ve-da-la, pre-čo si ne-po-ve-da-la, že aj Fe-dor…
Prehltla som naprázdno, a on pokračoval, pre-čo si, ma-ma…“

Tarka Revisited
Otter? Otter? OTTER! That elusive shadow, that fleeting glimpse, that sleek and slender form disappearing beneath the surface of the water. It is one hundred years since Henry Williamson wrote Tarka the Otter, the book that first brought these captivating animals into the public consciousness. A lot has changed for us over the last century, but is much different in the secretive life of the Otte? tters and the rivers in which they live have certainly been on a long journey, a perilous one at times. This book follows that course, a hundred years of riverine ebbs and flows. In richly poetic prose it reflects on what has happened to the Otter, as well as considering the outlook for this species today. Otters are now common across most of Britain, but is their future secure? Are there hard-won lessons from the last ten decades that we still have not heede? rom near extinction at the hands of hunters and pollution, to modern-day urban living, Otters have always been intricately entwined with their ecosystem and habitat. The author speaks to those involved in Otter conservation who do so much to help these remarkable and surprisingly adaptable mammals survive the challenges of our world. This book is the perfect companion for anyone with an interest in wildlife and the environment. For the Otter enthusiast, it is essential reading.
Za tajemstvím Moravského krasu
Moravský kras je známý hlavně svými jeskyněmi, z nichž mnohé jsou díky zpřístupnění oblíbeným cílem výletů. Každý slyšel o světoznámé propasti Macocha a pověsti, která se k ní váže. Ne každý ovšem zná dějiny objevů těchto míst. Můžeme parafrázovat slova známého básníka: jsou možná jeskyně rozsáhlejší a propasti hlubší, avšak k žádným z nich se neváže tolik starých a vzájemně si protiřečících historických zpráv. Skutečně, jen stěží bychom našli krajinu, kterou tolik prolínají různé legendy. Nejen ty staré, ale i z posledních staletí. Vyznat se v nich vyžaduje rozsáhlou znalost původních pramenů i různých nezapsaných podání.
Území Moravského krasu náleželo různým organizacím a střetávaly se tu badatelské skupiny příliš vyhraněných zájmů a různých národností. Za takové situace vznikal novodobý (jeskyňářsko-objevitelský) folklór, který odsunul do pozadí ten tradiční, týkající se středověkých hradů, loupeživých rytířů, hladomoren a zaniklých dědin. I jimi se ovšem kniha zabývá, stejně jako současnými atrakcemi a turistickými cíli. Málokdo ví, že tu měl začátkem 19. století vzniknout podobný park jako v prostoru mezi Lednicí a Valticemi, nebo že se v kryptě pod křtinským poutním kostelem našly podobně pomalované lebky, jaké jsou k vidění v jedné kapličce v rakouské Solné komoře. Anebo že se tu v minulém století odehrál jeden z nejhroznějších mordů na našem území.
Moravský kras, do počátku 20. století nazývaný Moravské Švýcarsko, zkrátka nemá jen jeskyně, byť nelze popřít, že je známý a navštěvovaný převážně kvůli nim. I proto je o něj dodnes takový zájem. Tak neváhejte a vstupte, Moravský kras vás očekává.

Revolve – Fordulat Éldekorált
A lány és a fiú a megváltást keresik, de az odavezető út korántsem olyan sima, mint egy jégpálya. Főképp, ha egy műkorcsolyázó és egy jégkorongozó egymásba szeret. Sierra Romanova olimpiai bajnok műkorcsolyázó volt, mielőtt balesetet szenvedett egy verseny közben, amitől mára az egész élete megváltozott.
Olyannyira, hogy pánikrohamok gyötörték, valahányszor csak a jégpályára lépett. De most, amikor visszatért utolsó tanévére a Dalton Egyetemre, készen áll arra, hogy ismét minden szempár rá szegeződjön... közöttük a jégkorongozó Dylan Donované is, akinek bátorító és provokáló szavai arra ösztönzik, hogy bizonyítson. Amiután súlyos meggondolatlansága miatt kirúgták a hokicsapatából, Dylannek nem sok esélye maradt arra, hogy a profi játékosok közé kerüljön. Csakhogy eddig az élete kizárólag a korcsolyázás körül forgott. És ha a hokizástól el is tiltották, még mindig ott van lehetőségként a műkorcsolyázás. Ami azt is jelenti, hogy az eddiginél több időt tölthet a jégpályán, ráadásul Sierra társaságában. És miközben a műkorcsolyavilág Sierra visszatérésére vár, a lánynak új edzőpartnerre van szüksége, akivel ismét elindulhat párosban. Az egyetlen személy, akiről tudja, hogy felveheti vele a versenyt a jégen, nem más, mint az a nagyképű hokis srác, aki kíméletlenül provokálja. Lehet, hogy éppen egy váratlan fordulat teszi őket a jég tökéletes párosává.

El gato en el remolino
Una novela experimental y utópica que narra el nacimiento, la vida y la muerte de una conciencia colectiva. "Lo que quiero decir es que la locura es un derecho". Así comienza El Gato en el remolino , una novela experimental y utópica que relata la historia del surgimiento, desarrollo y extinción de una conciencia colectiva conocida como el Animal. El libro cuenta la historia de un mundo que resulta a la vez deseable y aterrador a lo largo de los próximos 377 anos. Comienza en medio del relato. En el Caribe. Avanza lentamente, siguiendo con rigor la forma de un espiral narrativo a través de ciclos de destrucción. Luego regresa a nuestro presente, para que podamos contemplar cómo nuestro mundo se transforma en aquel otro. Su protagonista es una conciencia colectiva: el Animal. Nace. Crece y aprende. Muere. Es llorado por diosas cibernéticas. También grita: !La soledad es una enfermedad colectiva! !Defendamos nuestro derecho a la locura! !Valientes no son quienes resisten, sino quienes se atreven a soltar!The post-colonial birth, life, and death of the collective consciousness known as the Animal. Middle-aged streamer twins in Bayamón, Puerto Rico, are the first human beings to successfully connect—sharing their consciousness across 34 translucent cables. In that moment, the Animal is born, an intracerebral force that quickly grows to encompass anthills of synaptically entwined bodies, a floating library kitchen redolent of rice and beans far above the Mississippi river, and a transhuman compound in a future Cuba on the Isle of Youth. Circling back and forth and ever progressing, Animal Spiral moves through 400 years of human, and then post-human history, beginning with a revolution on the streets of San Juan and ending with five brilliant siblings: the Squash (humanoid), Calima (beetles), Yemayá (eels), Coatlicue (serpents), and Juracán (anthropomorphic birds), who have millions of bodies and all the world’s intelligence, but only want to no longer be alone. This is a buoyant, joyous ode to possibility, a warning about the dangers of neglecting what makes us human, and an astonishing exercise of the flexibility and capacity of liminal spaces. Loneliness is a collective disease! We defend our right to madness! Brave are not the ones who resist; brave are the ones who let go!

Zaklínač III.: Krev elfů
Cintra je v troskách a stala se nilfgaardským protektorátem. Válka hrozí, že zasáhne i všechy okolní země, jež se stanou vazalskými provinciemi pod nadvládou nilfgaardského císaře Emhyra. Jediný, kdo může válečné štěstí vychýlit na jednu či na druhou stranu, je zmizelá princezna Cirilla, vnučka cintránské královny Calanthé.

Úkol je to těžký, vždyť válečnou mašinerii nějaké bajky o Osudu a Dítěti-překvapení nijak zvlášť nezajímají...

The Devil's Banquet
The second novel in the Piccadilly Noir series, this dark historical thriller sees Cockney private eye George Harley return to the streets of London's Soho, populated by gangsters, wide-boys and lowlifes, to investigate a missing cabaret dancer. For fans of Dominic Nolan and Laura Shepherd Robinson. Four years after bringing the infamous child-killer known as the 'Nursery Butcher' to justice - and still haunted by the brutal vengeance exacted by the psychopath's ruthless allies - Cockney private eye George Harley is finally back in business, operating a new detective agency in the heart of London's Soho. Harley and his new assistant Bunty are presented with their first case when a distressed father engages them to investigate the disappearance of his daughter, who has run away from home to join a cabaret troupe led by the notorious 'Queen of Depravity' Ilse Blau, now in London after being driven out by the Nazis from Weimar-era Berlin. But in Harley's liminal world, things are never straightforward, and the detective soon finds himself embroiled in another pitch-dark scenario, with London's decadent, thrill-seeking gentry on one side and West End mobsters and wide-boys in search of easy cash on the other. When he discovers that a six-year-old has been kidnapped from an orphanage, Harley is convinced his old nemesis has somehow broken out of the lunatic asylum and is back on the streets of London, up to his old tricks. Set in 1933 and following on from the events of Midnight Streets, this second instalment in the Piccadilly Noir series sees George Harley return to the frowzy alleyways and sleazy nightclubs of the UK capital in search of answers - no matter how uncomfortable they might turn out to be. But when he becomes ensnared in the mind games of a wily femme fatale, and finds himself up against ruthless Glaswegian gangsters, well-connected occultists, and undercover SS agents, those answers become increasingly hard to find.
