De kár megvénülni!
Először azt a címet akartam adni ennek az izének (mely, fájdalom! rám nézve nem regény), hogy „egy becsületes ember gondosztettei”. Mert hát én az vagyok: becsületes ember; egyéb címem sincs: se „tisztelt hazafi”, se „szeretett polgártárs”, se „elismert szakférfiú”. Csak becsületes ember: minden pontban; még a pontok pontjában is. Mustrája vagyok a férjeknek, annyira, hogy azt beszélik rólam, hogy ha meghalok, porrá égetnek, s mint Artemízia királyné tett Mauzolusz királlya, italba keverik hamvaiamat, s úgy adogatnak be, de nem a nőknek, hanem a férjeken, mint óvó-szérumot a hűtlenség baktériumai ellen. És ez nem is lett volna rossz regénycím: egy becsületes embernek a gonoszttettei. Hanem hát ez mégis nagyon hasonlít a sviháksághoz, egy neme a hetvenkedésnek: virtuskodás olyannal, ami nincs. Sohasem szerettem a dicsekedést. Mit csidekedjem a bűnömmel? Elég, ha a feleségem így szólít, hogy „bűnöm!” Inkább választottam ezt a címet „…De kár megvénülni!” Ezzel aztán be van ismerve, hogy vén vagyok. Biz az vagyok. Az ötvenediket járom.

That Too. Has he written it yet? No. Is it because he's hiding in a wardrobe? Maybe. Docter Noel is facing his most terrifying situation Ever - a little dog called Napkin has come to stay.

Világszám
"Egy légtornász, két akrobata és egy világszám. Hogy ők négy gesztenyeszemű lánytestvér? A Világszám hőseit követve ez a csoda természetes. A jól megszokott dolgok pedig egyre csodásabbak lesznek. Mi pedig azt vesszük észre, hogy máris szívdobogva követjük az egyszerre hétköznapi ... Folytatás ›› és nem mindennapi kislányokat titkos éjszakai úti céljuk felé, ahol varázslatos képességeikre fény derül. Hová tartanak? Mibe csöppennek? Ez még számukra is óriási meglepetés!" (Harmath Artemisz)
"Amikor először találkoztam Lédával, Minnával, Lolával és Paulával, úgy éreztem, Tündérországban vagyok. Nemcsak a szőke fürtök, a finom ívű orrocskák és csillogó tekintetek igéztek meg, de volt e körül a négy kislány körül valami abból az ősi női varázserőből, ami a szürkét színessé teszi, a csodákat az égből a földre tereli, az élettelent élővé leheli. Ott állt velük a anyukájuk is, okos nyugalmat, mozgalmas melegséget árasztott. Ahogy végignézett a kis tündéreken, pontosan tudta, hogy négy gyönyörű lánya és a köztük cinkosan ficánkoló szeretet nem más: világszám. Ahogyan a történet is..." (Palya Bea)

Kharón Karma - Neverwinter 3.
NEM AZÉRT HARCOLOK, HOGY JOBB LEGYEK. CSUPÁN MAGÁÉRT A HARCÉRT.
Drizzt Do’Urden vagyok; valaha lelkiismeretem csalhatatlan iránytűje vezette lépteimet, most azonban homályos ösvényre léptem. A szeretőm, Dahlia oldalán harcolok, hogy megtoroljunk egy régi sérelmet, de fel nem fogom, hogy miféle magasztosabb célt szolgálunk vele. A szívem azt súgja, hogy hagyjam magára. Mégsem tudok ellenállni a bizsergésnek.
Herzgo Alegni vagyok; árny hadúr, netheri nagyúr. A rólam elnevezett hídon állok, és várom a közelgő harcot. A drow és két társa azt hiszik, hogy rajtam üthetnek, de megfeledkeznek a pengémről… és arról, akit fogva tart. Drizzt Do’Urden jelentéktelen ellenfél.
Kharón Karma vagyok; ősi mágikus ereklye, érző kard. Valaha virágzó város felett uralkodtam, és rabul ejtettem egy hajdan legendás orgyilkost. Pengém halk suttogásával bármikor térdre kényszeríthetem Artemis Entrerit. Érzem, hogy el akar pusztítani. De vajon hajlandó lenne mindent feláldozni a múló szabadságért cserébe?

Bálványaink
Ha a szó legszorosabb értelmében nem is hullunk térdre Afrodité szobra előtt, fiatal nők ezrei szenvednek depresszióban és étkezési zavarokban, mert megszállottan külsejükkel vannak elfoglalva. Talán nem gyújtunk valódi tüzet Artemisz oltárán, ám azo
k, akik a meggazdagodás és a mind nagyobb megbecsülés reményében törtetnek előre az életben szeretteiket és barátaikat elhanyagolva, mégiscsak áldozatot mutatnak be. Minden kultúra felépíti a maga oltárait, s valamennyinek megvannak a saját "papjai"
és szertartásai.
Timothy Keller, napjaink egyik legismertebb amerikai lelkésze új könyvében amellett foglal állást, hogy sem önmagunkat, sem a bennünket körülvelő világot nem érthetjük meg addig, amíg nem tudatosítjuk, milyen hamis istenek formálna
k jogot a szívünkre, a bizalmunkra, a hűségünkre vagy éppen a szolgálatunkra. Számos ismert és rejtőzködő bálványt leplez le, utóbbiak között a perfekcionizmust, a munkamániát, a krónikus döntésképtelenséget, vagy a kényszeres igényt mások irányításá
ra. Feltárva intellektuális, pszichológiai, társadalmi, kulturális és lelki aspektusaikat, arra is rámutat, hogyan tölthetjük be a helyüket, és indulhatunk el a bálványok nélküli szabad élet felé. Radikális és inspiráló üzenete a lehető legjobbkor ha
ngzik el és szólítja meg olvasóit.

Night Embrance
Talon was once a Celt warrior cursed by his ancient gods. Following the murder of his sister, the dying Talon had made a deal with the goddess Artemis. He had been given one act of vengeance against the clan who betrayed him, in exchange for his soul and his eternal service as a Dark-Hunter. Talon has sworn to fight Daimons and rescue the human souls they've captured. He has never had cause to regret this choice - until he meets Sunshine Runningwolf. The unconventional Sunshine should be Talon's perfect woman. She is beautiful, sexy and isn't looking for a long-term commitment. But the more time Talon spends in her company the more he starts yearning for dreams of love and family that he buried centuries ago. But loving Sunshine would be dangerous for both of them - Talon is destined never to know peace or happiness while his enemies still seek to destroy him and everyone close to him...

Seize The Night
Dark-Hunter: an immortal warrior who has traded his soul to Artemis for one moment of vengeance on his enemies. In return, they swear to spend eternity protecting mankind from the daimons and vampires that prey on them. Valerius isn't a popular Dark-Hunter - he's a Roman, which means that the largely Greek Hunters have a major grudge against him and his civilization for superceding them. To make things worse, he's very conscious of his aristocratic background and breeding. So it serves him right when he runs into Tabitha Devereaux. She's sassy, sexy, and completely unwilling to take him seriously. (Not to mention Tabitha is also the sister-in-law of Kyrian, a former Dark-Hunter and Val's mortal enemy.) What Tabitha does take seriously is hunting and killing vampires-and soon she and Val have to grapple with the deadliest of all Daimons - one who's managed to come back from the dead, and one who holds a serious grudge against both of them. To win against evil, Val will have to loosen up, learn to trust, and put everything on the line to protect a man he hates and a woman who drives him nuts.

Disobedient
A young woman is put on trail. She has accused her painting teacher of the darkest betrayal - he accuses her of being a immoral liar. What really happened, and why will this trial scandalise seventeenth-century Rome?
'This is the ring that you gave me, and these are your promises.'
Rome 1611. A jewel-bright place of change, with sumptuous new palaces and lavish wealth on constant display. A city where women are seen but not heard.
Artemisia Gentileschi dreams of becoming a great artist. Motherless, she grows up among a family of painters - men and boys. She knows she is more talented than her brothers, but she cannot choose her own future. She belongs to her father and will belong to a husband.
As Artemisia patiently goes from lesson to lesson, perfecting her craft, a mysterious tutor enters her life. Tassi is a dashing figure, handsome and worldly, and for a moment he represents everything that a life of freedom might offer. But then the unthinkable happens. A violent act that threatens Artemisia's honour, and her virtue.
In the eyes of her family, Artemisia should accept her fate. In the eyes of the law, she is the villain.
But Artemisia is a survivor. And this is her story to tell.
