One of the Girls
The six of us arrived on that beautiful Greek island dreaming of sun-drenched beaches and blood-orange sunsets, ready to lose ourselves in the wild freedom of a weekend away with friends.
On the first night we swam under a blanket of stars. On the second night the games began on our clifftop terrace. On the third night the idyll cracked, secrets and lies whispering on the breeze.
And by the final night there was a body on the rocks below . . .
The Story Of The Lost Child
Soon to be an HBO series, book four in the New York Times bestselling Neapolitan quartet about two friends in post-war Italy is a rich, intense, and generous-hearted epic by one of today's most beloved and acclaimed writers, Elena Ferrante, "one of the great novelists of our time." (Roxana Robinson, The New York Times) Here is the dazzling saga of two women, the brilliant, bookish Elena and the fiery uncontainable Lila. In this book, life's great discoveries have been made, its vagaries and losses have been suffered. Through it all, the women's friendship, examined in its every detail over the course of four books, remains the gravitational center of their lives. Both women once fought to escape the neighborhood in which they grew up. Elena married, moved to Florence, started a family, and published several well-received books. But now, she has returned to Naples to be with the man she has always loved. Lila, on the other hand, never succeeded in freeing herself from Naples. She has become a successful entrepreneur, but her success draws her into closer proximity with the nepotism, chauvinism, and criminal violence that infect her neighborhood. Yet somehow this proximity to a world she has always rejected only brings her role as unacknowledged leader of that world into relief. Ferrante is one of the world's great storytellers. With the Neapolitan quartet she has given her readers an abundant, generous, and masterfully plotted page-turner that is also a stylish work of literary fiction destined to delight readers for many generations to come.

Forgotten Peoples of the Ancient World
An overview of the lost peoples and cultures who flourished and fought for survival alongside the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans.
Beyond the Greeks, Romans and Hebrews of the Classical and Biblical eras, a rich diversity of peoples helped lay the foundations of the modern world. Philip Matyszak brings to life these cultures and individuals that made up the busy, brawling multicultural mass of humanity that emerged from the ancient Middle East and spread across the Mediterranean and Europe. He explores the origins of forty forgotten peoples, their great triumphs and defeats, and considers the legacy they have left to us today, whether it be in fine art or everyday language.
This carefully researched and illuminating history is the perfect introduction for the modern reader, packed with surprising facts and fascinating stories, detailed maps and beautiful illustrations of artefacts and sites of interest. Forgotten Peoples of the Ancient World offers a new understanding of these important civilizations that have been obscured by the passage of time.

The Book of Dirt
A deep dive into the history and science of dirt.
Millions of people on Earth start their day the same way: we get out of bed, go to the loo and wash ourselves. But this hasn't always been the standard routine. Ancient Greeks and Romans were happy to splash about in public baths, but by the time the plague struck 14th-century Europe, many people believed that water spread diseases. It was not until the 18th century that Louis Pasteur proved that dangerous germs actually lurk in dirt. Even when hygienic habits began to be taught in schools, lessons were limited to washing faces and hands, because those were the parts that everyone could see.
Dive deep into the history and science of dirt, discovering how people around the world (and out in space!) keep themselves and their surroundings free from filth, how our ideas of what's clean and what's not have changed and developed over the centuries, and why a little dirt can sometimes be a good thing...

Problém cely č. 13 The Problem of Cell 13
Je možné uniknout ze zamčené a ostře hlídané cely pouze pomocí logiky? Profesor Augustus Van Dusen je o síle lidského ducha nezvratně přesvědčen. Aby svá tvrzení dokázal, nechá se zavřít do chisholmského vězení a vsadí se svými přáteli, že se s nimi sejde za týden na večeři na svobodě. Uplyne týden, a ejhle! – profesor Van Dusen svou sázku opravdu vyhrává.
Jacques Futrelle se narodil roku 1875, pracoval jako novinář a přivydělával si psaním detektivních povídek.Zahynul roku 1912 při ztroskotání Titaniku. Povídka „Problém cely č. 13“ patří mezi jeho nejznámější texty a dodnes je řazena mezi nejlepší detektivní povídky 20. století.
Nielsen, East of the Sun
Step into a world of star-crossed lovers, magical winds, mischievous giants, and trolls, through some of the most exquisite illustrations in publishing history. In this gorgeous abridged edition, TASCHEN revives the most ambitious publication project of beloved Danish artist Kay Nielsen, one of the most famous children’s book illustrators of all time.
First published in 1914, East of the Sun and West of the Moon is a celebrated collection of fairy tales gathered by legendary Norwegian folklorists Peter Christen Asbjornsen and Jorgen Engebretsen Moe on their journeys across Norway in the mid-19th century. Nielsen’s illustration edition of Asbjornsen and Moe’s tales is considered a jewel of early 20th-century children's literature, highly sought-after by art and book collectors worldwide. An original signed copy of the book sold at auction in 2008 commanded the highest price ever paid for an illustrated children’s book.
This finely crafted volume presents 10 of the original fairytales, and restores the stunning detail and artistry of Nielsen’s images to their original splendor. Featuring 41 illustrations, including many enlarged details from Nielsen’s rare original watercolors. The book comes with three accompanying essays, illustrated with dozens of rare and previously unseen artworks by Nielsen, that explore the history of Norwegian folktales, Nielsen’s life and work, and how this masterpiece came to be.

Empire of the Vampire - Vámpírbirodalom
Huszonhét éve kelt utoljára a nap, így az éj lényei három évtizede prédálnak a halódó nap derengésében.
Saját örök birodalmuk építésével a miénk egyre satnyul. Immár csupán néhány kihunyó fénypetty küszködik a sötétség növekvő tengerében.
Gabriel de León a birodalom és az egyház védelmére
felesküdött rend, az ezüstszentek utolsó tagja.
De a nap eltűnésével már az Ezüst Rend sem bír az áradattal.
Ősellenségei fogságában az utolsó ezüstszent kénytelen elmesélni a történetét.
Legendás csaták és tiltott szerelem, elveszett hit és újjáéledő barátságok, a Vérháborúk és az Örök Király történetét,
aminek végcélja az emberiség utolsó reménye:
A Szent Grál.
A Vámpírbirodalom illusztrált, epikus, dark fantasy;
az Interjú a vámpírral, Az út és A szél neve törvénytelen gyereke.
Az utóbbi évek legegyedibb vámpírregénye.
Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon (50th Anniversary) LP
KDO: Pink Floyd jsou nepochybně jednou z nejzásadnějších skupin hudební historie. Jejich experimentální rocková muzika ovlivnila miliony posluchačů a inspirovala několik generací hudebníků. Vždy je zdobil progresivní přístup při hledání nových možností, kladli důraz na koncepční propojení zvuku s obrazem. Měli jedinečné nápady a pořádali originální výpravné koncerty. Od roku 1964, kdy vznikli, natočili patnáct studiových alb. Těžko hledat slavnější art-rockovou skupinu!
CO: Legendární album z roku 1973 se u příležitosti padesátého výročí vydání dočkalo opulentní reedice. Nově zremasterovaná nahrávka nyní vychází také na LP, CD a rovněž v audio podobách Dolby Atmos a 5.1 Surround mix na Blu-ray.

The Story of Tracy Beaker
Introducing Tracy Beaker, 10-year-old girl-wonder and the daughter of a famous Hollywood actress . . . sort of. Tracy Beaker’s not exactly sure what her mother does, because Tracy has been in foster care for as long as she can remember. She has a picture of her mother, who’s pretty enough to be in movies, so maybe she is. And maybe one day Tracy’s mother will show up and reclaim her long-lost daughter, and together they’ll have fabulous adventures. Then again, maybe she won’t. In the meantime, Tracy’s doing everything she can to take care of herself–even though she has to share her birthday cake with silly Petey Ingham just because they have the same birthday . . . and even though the other girls she lives with are mean and nasty and rude and horrible. Mostly. Then a journalist shows up to write a story about their orphanage, and she and Tracy strike up a special friendship. In a story written with humor and sensitivity, Tracy emerges as a spirited girl who’s not quite as tough as she lets everybody think she is.From the Hardcover edition.

The Desolations of Devil's Acre
The fate of peculiardom hangs in the balance in this epic conclusion to the #1 bestselling Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children series.
The last thing Jacob Portman saw before the world went dark was a terrible, familiar face.
Suddenly, he and Noor are back in the place where everything began - his grandfather's house. Jacob doesn't know how they escaped from V's loop to find themselves in Florida. But he does know one thing for certain: Caul has returned.
After a narrow getaway from a blood-thirsty hollow, Jacob and Noor reunite with Miss Peregrine and the peculiar children in Devil's Acre. The Acre is being plagued by desolations - weather fronts of ash and blood and bone - a terrible portent of Caul's amassing army.
Risen from the Library of Souls and more powerful than ever, Caul and his apocalyptic agenda seem unstoppable. Only one hope remains - deliver Noor to the meeting place of the seven prophesied ones. If they can decipher its secret location.
Jacob and his friends will face deadly enemies and race through history's most dangerous loops in this thrilling page-turner, the final adventure in the beloved Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children series.
