Court of the Grandchildren
Lily Miyashiro lives much as any twenty-nine-year-old in 2050’s America. Her job is busy, resettling climate refugees from the coastal cities. Then she gets a call. She has family she never knew about. And they want something from her she doesn't want to give.
Lily is one of the young, reliant on artificial intelligence and facing an uncertain future.
David Moreland was a bigwig during the world’s golden age. He is old and almost forgotten…until he is drawn into the realm of the Climate Court. Now a whole generation seeks to condemn him.
When Lily meets David, she is forced to confront events from her past that she would prefer to forget. Feeling trapped, she hires a young lawyer. Is it to defend David, or to deny the past?
In a world that seems comfortably like the present, hints of sinister differences begin to emerge, and the stakes are raised beyond David’s fate.

Umelecká kartografia v strede Európy - Art Cartography in the Centre of Europe 1960-2011
Medzinárodný výstavný projekt MAPY / MAPS (Umelecká kartografia v strede Európy 1960-2011) prezentuje známe, menej známe aj doteraz nevystavené diela autorov tvoriacich v 60. a 70. rokoch 20. storočia v oblasti konceptuálneho umenia a land-artu, v 80. rokoch aj v maľbe a fotografii, reflektuje neo-konceptuálne tendencie objektu a inštalácie v 90. rokoch 20. storočia. Výberovo predstavuje aj mladú generáciu autorov, ktorí mapu a princíp mapovania, sietí, ciest, myslenia a výskumu pomocou mapy často využívajú ako metaforu samotnej tvorby diela. Mapy sa stali v umení uplynulých päťdesiatych rokov dôležitým nositeľom kultúrnych významov ako médium utopických vízií, mentálnych archeológií, futurologických projektov či projekcií teritoriálnych alebo politických frustrácií.
V umeleckohistorickej sonde výstava sleduje na "mape" diel viac ako päťdesiatich autorov vzťah umelcov ku každodennej realite, počnúc prelínaním umenia a života v neoavantgardných tendenciách 60. rokov až po priamočiaru manifestáciu života v umení umožnenú novými médiami. Mapuje kartografické interpretácie na slovenskej výtvarnej scéne v konfrontácii s vybranými dielami autorov z ostatných krajín V4: Česka, Poľska a Maďarska.
Výstava je zostavená chronologicky, a zároveň tematicky. Na predstavených dielach možno sledovať uvažovanie umelcov o hraniciach, obmedzeniach, spôsoboch ich virtuálneho slobodného prekračovania či redefinovania, zmenách mierky či pozícií štátov a kontinentov. Autori a autorky v mapách zaznamenávajú svoje zážitky z fyzickej prítomnosti v krajine a orientácie v mestskom či prírodnom teréne. Umelecké mapy sú však aj nástrojom subjektívnych mentálnych kartografií. Metaforická podstata mapy poskytuje nekonečné možnosti vyjadrovania v tvorivých systémoch individuálnych mytológií, hľadanie stratených rajov, objavovanie bájnych a zakladanie nových krajín, či snívanie o vesmíre. Každý z autorov vyznačuje svojím zápisom predovšetkým vlastné súradnice na mape.
Katalóg je koncipovaný ako atlas umeleckých máp s odkazmi, témami a návodmi na ich kritické čítanie.

The Christmas Bookshop
The brand new feel-good Christmas novel from Sunday Times top ten bestselling author, Jenny Colgan.
Carmen has always worked in her local department store. So, when the gorgeous old building closes its doors for good, she is more than a little lost.
When her sister, Sofia, mentions an opportunity in Edinburgh - a cute little bookshop, the spare room in her house - Carmen is reluctant, she was never very good at accepting help. But, short on options, she soon finds herself pulling into the snowy city just a month before Christmas.
What Sofia didn't say is that the shop is on its last legs and that if Carmen can't help turn things around before Christmas, the owner will be forced to sell. Privately, Sofia is sure it will take more than a miracle to save the store, but maybe this Christmas, Carmen might surprise them all...

The Great Plant-Based Con
Plant-based is best for health, go vegan to help save the planet, eat less meat... Almost every day we are bombarded with the seemingly incontrovertible message that we must reduce our consumption of meat and dairy - or eliminate them from our diets altogether.
But what if the pervasive message that the plant-based diet will improve our health and save the planet is misleading - or even false? What if removing animal foods from our diet is a serious threat to human health, and a red herring in the fight against climate change.
In THE GREAT PLANT-BASED CON, Jayne Buxton demonstrates that each of these 'what-ifs' is, in fact, a reality. Drawing on the work of numerous health experts and researchers, she uncovers how the separate efforts of a constellation of individuals, companies and organisations are leading us down a dietary road that will have severe repercussions for our health and wellbeing, and for the future of the planet.
THE GREAT PLANT-BASED CON is neither anti-plant nor anti-vegan - it is a call for us to take an honest look at the facts about human diets and their effect on the environment. Shocking and eye-opening, this book outlines everything you need to know to make more informed decisions about the food you choose to eat.
The Rising - Nové fronty
Boj o budoucnost lidstva pokračuje.

Avšak naděje na mír a svobodu se octne před těžkou zkouškou, když je za tajemných okolností unesen prezidentův syn. Podezření ulpí na politickém protivníkovi. Zmocnil se dítěte, aby mohl mladý stát vydírat? Strhne tato událost celý svět znovu do víru války? Skupina odvážných se vydává po stopách únosců, pravda je ovšem děsivější, než si vůbec dokázali představit…
Cycle of the Werewolf
Something inhuman has come to Tarker's Mills, as unseen as the full moon riding the night sky high above.
The first scream came from the snowbound railwayman who felt the werewolf's fangs ripping at his throat. The next month there was a scream of ecstatic agony from the woman attacked in her cosy bedroom. Now scenes of unbelievable horror unfold each time the full moon shines on the isolated Maine town of Tarker's Mills.
No one knows who will be attacked next. But one thing is sure. When the full moon rises, a paralysing fear sweeps through Tarker's Mills. For snarls that sound like human words can be heard whining through the wind. And all around are the footprints of a monster whose hunger cannot be sated...

The Rise and Reign of the Mammals
The passing of the age of the dinosaurs allowed mammals to become ascendant. But mammals have a much deeper history. They - or, more precisely, we - originated around the same time as the dinosaurs, over 200 million years ago; mammal roots lie even further back, some 325 million years.
Over these immense stretches of geological time, mammals developed their trademark features: hair, keen senses of smell and hearing, big brains and sharp intelligence, fast growth and warm-blooded metabolism, a distinctive line-up of teeth (canines, incisors, premolars, molars), mammary glands that mothers use to nourish their babies with milk, qualities that have underlain their success story.
Out of this long and rich evolutionary history came the mammals of today, including our own species and our closest cousins. But today's 6,000 mammal species - the egg-laying monotremes including the platypus, marsupials such as kangaroos and koalas that raise their tiny babies in pouches, and placentals like us, who give birth to well-developed young - are simply the few survivors of a once verdant family tree, which has been pruned both by time and mass extinctions.
In The Rise and Reign of the Mammals, palaeontologist Steve Brusatte weaves together the history and evolution of our mammal forebears with stories of the scientists whose fieldwork and discoveries underlie our knowledge, both of iconic mammals like the mammoths and sabre-toothed tigers of which we have all heard, and of fascinating species that few of us are aware of.
For what we see today is but a very limited range of the mammals that have existed; in this fascinating and ground-breaking book, Steve Brusatte tells their - and our - story.

The Silmarillion Illustrated Deluxe Edition
For the first time ever, a beautiful slipcased edition of the forerunner to The Lord of the Rings, illustrated throughout in colour by J.R.R. Tolkien himself, with the complete text printed in two colours and with many bonus features unique to this edition. The Silmarilli were three perfect jewels, fashioned by Feanor, most gifted of the Elves, and within them was imprisoned the last Light of the Two Trees of Valinor.
But the first Dark Lord, Morgoth, stole the jewels and set them within his iron crown, guarded in the impenetrable fortress of Angband in the north of Middle-earth. The Silmarillion is the history of the rebellion of Feanor and his kindred against the gods, their exile from Valinor and return to Middle-earth, and their war, hopeless despite all the heroism, against the great Enemy. It is the ancient drama to which the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back, and in whose events some of them such as Elrond and Galadriel took part.
The book also includes several shorter works: the Ainulindale, a myth of the Creation, and the Valaquenta, in which the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabeth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Numenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age, as narrated in The Lord of the Rings. This deluxe slipcased edition contains the complete text, which is printed in two colours and features, for the very first time, more than 50 colour paintings, illustrations and designs drawn by J.R.R.
Tolkien himself as he composed this epic work. Unique to this edition are two poster-size, fold-out maps revealing all the detail of Beleriand as the tales grew, an illustrated booklet featuring 'A Brief Account of The Silmarillion and its Making' by Christopher Tolkien, and a printed art card reproducing 'Taniquetil'. It is additionally quarterbound in blue leather, with raised ribs on the spine, stamped in three foils on black cloth boards, and housed in a custom-built clothbound slipcase.
The pages are edged in silver and include a ribbon marker.

Young Neil - After The Gold Rush (50th Anniversary Edition) CD
KDO: Neil Young je zásadní postava nejen americké rockové historie. Invenční kytarista, skladatel, zpěvák a dnes už také podnikatel v hudebním průmyslu inspiroval celou řadu následovníků. Působil v kapelách Shadows a Buffalo Springfiled, v uskupení Crosby, Still, Nash & Young, ale především se proslavil jako sólový muzikant. Je označován za jednoho z největších rock'n'rollových interpretů a nejrespektovanějších kytaristů.
CO: Výroční reedice třetí sólové desky kanadského rockového hudebníka Neila Younga. Album vyšlo v roce 1970 a je jedním ze čtveřice sólových počinů, které vydávají jednotlivě pánové Crosby, Stills, Nash a Young ve stejné době, kdy jejich společné album Déj? Vu slavilo velký komerční úspěch. Gold Rush je převážně folkově a country laděné album, výjimkou je rocková píseň Southern Man. After the Gold Rush se vyšplhala na osmé místo žebříčku Billboard Top Pop Albums. Z alba byly použity dvě písně jako singly: Only Love Can Break Your Heart a When You Dance I Can Really Love. První z nich se umístila na 33. místě a druhá na 93 místě v Billboard Hot 100.
