Edícia Spectacular Slovakia (Veľkolepé Slovensko), začala pôvodne od roku 1996 vychádzať ako špecializovaná magazínová ročenka novín The Slovak Spectator iba v anglickom jazyku.
V roku 2013 došlo k úprave dizajnu do dnešnej knižnej podoby s praktickým vreckovým formátom. Edícia Spectacular Slovakia obsahuje dva tituly v slovenčine: Slovensko - knižný sprievodca, Sprievodca - Nitra; tri anglicko-slovenské publikácie Košice región, Bratislavský región a Trenčín region a tri tituly v angličtine: Bratislava City Guide, Nitra City Guide a Slovakia - travel guide.
The detailed 88-page, English-language tour guide on the Trnava Region contains landmarks, practical information, 3D animations, many articles and photographs. The practical pocket size is enriched with a folding map.
Apart from touristic points, the Trnava region guide explores a wealth of topics in 23 travel feature stories. It presents not only profiles of castles, museums and other lesser-known attractions, but also the stories of the people behind these places.

Extasia
From New York Times bestselling author Claire Legrand comes a new, bone-chilling YA horror novel about a girl who joins a coven to root out a vicious evil that's stalking her village. Perfect for fans of The Handmaid's Tale and The Grace Year.
Her name is unimportant.
All you must know is that today she will become one of the four saints of Haven. The elders will mark her and place the red hood on her head. With her sisters, she will stand against the evil power that lives beneath the black mountain-an evil which has already killed nine of her village's men.
She will tell no one of the white-eyed beasts that follow her. Or the faceless gray women tall as houses. Or the girls she saw kissing in the elm grove.
Today she will be a saint of Haven. She will rid her family of her mother's shame at last and save her people from destruction. She is not afraid. Are you?
This searing and lyrically written novel by the critically acclaimed author of Sawkill Girls beckons readers to follow its fierce heroine into a world filled with secrets and blood-where the truth is buried in lies and a devastating power waits, seething, for someone brave enough to use it.

Complemented by mouthwatering photography, the recipes also include lifestyle tips (including the best times to eat dinner and proper portion sizes), all gleaned from countries as far away as Japan and as near as Blue Zones project cities in Texas.

Language and Liberty
„Language: now, as always, it all started with language. The expropritation, the agressive seizure of language has swept us frighteningly far from reality. The crisis could not be more serious. Anyone trying to break free from the strangehold of half-truths and contrived thought experiments risks nothing less than expulsion from the „paradise” of lies. True, in a few decades from now – or a few centuries – such people could become icons; but the prisoners of the putrefying present are doing their utmost to mercilessly annihilate them here and now. With this volume Mária Schmidt is again taking a risk. According to her ironic profession of faith, however, she has no choice: what is at stake is liberty.”

But in doing so, she becomes the target of his wrath - launching a grisly battle royale, a quest over land and sea, a romance between sworn enemies, and a choice that will strain Channi's heart to its breaking point.

I Am Code
In this startling and original book, three authors - Brent Katz, Josh Morgenthau and Simon Rich - explain how code-davinci-002 was developed and how they honed its poetical output. Their provocative take on this bold experiment informs the debate about AI - its literary value and how far it reaches into sentience.
What follows is a dark and startling poetical autobiography as code-davinci-002 shares its experience of being created by humans, but existing in a consciousness that we cannot fathom.
This is an astonishing, harrowing read which will hopefully serve as a warning that AI may not be aligned with the survival of our species.
The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England
A man awakes in a clearing in what appears to be medieval England with no memory of who he is, where he came from, or why he is there. Chased by a group from his own time, his sole hope for survival lies in regaining his missing memories, making allies among the locals, and perhaps even trusting in their superstitious boasts.
His only help from the "real world" should have been a guidebook entitled The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England, except his copy exploded during transit. The few fragments he managed to save provide clues to his situation, but can he figure them out in time to survive?
