Snuff
From the master of literary mayhem and provocation, a full-frontal Triple-X novel that goes where no work of fiction has gone before. 'Six hundred dudes. One porn queen. A world record for the ages. A must-have movie for every discerning collector of things erotic.' 'Didn't one of us on purpose set out to make a snuff movie?' Cassie Wright, porn priestess, intends to cap her legendary career by breaking the world record for serial fornication. On camera. With six hundred men. Snuff unfolds from the perspectives of Mr 72, Mr 137 and Mr 600, who await their turn on camera in a very crowded green room. This wild, lethally funny and thoroughly researched novel brings the huge yet underacknowledged presence of pornography in contemporary life into the realm of literary fiction at last. Who else but Chuck Palahniuk would dare do such a thing? Who else could do it so well, so unflinchingly and with such an incendiary (you might say) climax?

DEAD LETTERS
Five years ago, Eddie Whitt’s daughter Sarah became the victim of a serial killer known as Killjoy, and Whitt vowed to hunt him down—no matter what the cost. But the police have given up. And Killjoy has stopped killing…and in some bizarre act of repentance has begun kidnapping abused infants and leaving them with the parents of his original victims.The only clues to Killjoy’s identity lie in a trail of taunting letters. And even as they lead Whitt to a deadly cult—and closer to his prey—he begins to suspect that, like his wife, he’s losing his grip on reality: Sarah’s dollhouse is filled with eerie activity, as if her murder never occurred. As dark forces rise around him, Whitt must choose—between believing that evil can repent…and stepping into a trap set by a killer who may know the only way to save Whitt’s soul.

Utopie, nejlepší verze
Taky míváte pocit, že vás kdosi odkudsi pozoruje a manipuluje s vámi? Nemýlíte se: všichni jste jen roboti programovaní na proces, kterému se pracovně říká plnohodnotný autentický život. Všimli si toho například tvůrci filmu Truman Show z roku 1998, pojednávajícím o pojišťovacím agentovi, který žije nic netuše uzavřen v umělém mikrosvětě (byť tak fascinujicím, jako je město) a hraje roli s minimálním počtem stupňů volnosti. Sami ovšem určitě neměli ani tušení, že i je někdo pozoruje – totiž český autor Ivan Kmínek, který napsal dílo na podezřele podobné motivy dvanáct let před nimi, na sklonku totalitního režimu. Pojišťovák Viktor Kaminský a superman Martin Larden odhalují pravdu o své existenci na stránkách sci-fi románu, který je neopakovatelnou kombinací šestákového čtení, výzkumných zpráv, ztřeštěné akce, a politických memorand. Kupte si ho v této reedici, dokud je čas, protože nic podobného už se opravdu opakovat nebude a nesmí!

Lacná kniha Trenes rigurosamente vigilados (-90%)
Trenes rigurosamente vigilados, la novela más conocida de Bohumil Hrabal, es una divertida y entrañable historia sobre la resistencia frente al invasor alemán durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, protagonizada por los empleados de la estación de tren de un pequeño pueblo checoslovaco. El descubrimiento del amor y del deseo están presentes en la narración del despertar al mundo adulto del aprendiz y verdadero héroe de la novela, que sigue los pasos del hedonista factor de la estación tras la atractiva telegrafista. La ingenua humanidad que transmiten estos personajes se convierte en solemne cuando su forma de entender la vida, de entender lo que es un hombre, los lleva a rebelarse ante el invasor no ya con la palabra y la ironía, sino arriesgando su vida. Una imprescindible y sabia reflexión sobre lo que significa ser humano. . Bohumil Hrabal (Brno, Moravia, 1914 ? Praga, 1997), hijo de un gerente de una fábrica de cerveza, estudió en la universidad de Praga, donde llegaría a ser doctor en Derecho, aunque trabajó como obrero en la industria siderúrgica de Kladno. Este trabajo le proporcionó la inspiración para los textos hiperrealistas que escribió en aquella época. Además ejerció de oficinista, de comercial y de tramoyista entre otros oficios. En 1963 publica su primer libro, Perlas en el fondo, y en 1965 el segundo Trenes rigurosamente vigilados, que sería llevado al cine por el cineasta Jiri Menzel, film que obtuvo en 1967 el Oscar a la mejor película extranjera. En 1968 Hrabal es censurado y no volvería a aparecer un libro suyo hasta 1975. No obstante, seguían circulando de manera clandestina copias mecanografiadas de los originales y el autor seguía ganando reconocimiento dentro y fuera de Checoslovaquia. En febrero de 1997, un Hrabal ya senil cayó del quinto piso del hospital en el que estaba ingresado mientras daba de comer a las palomas. . Habral está considerado como uno de los grandes escritores checos del siglo XX y tal vez el más importante del periodo de la posguerra. Maestro del humor y la ironía, era capaz de ver lo genial del absurdo de la vida y de las situaciones cotidianas. Entre sus obras publicadas en castellano se encuentran Una soledad demasiado ruidosa, Yo que he servido al rey de Inglaterra y Anuncio una casa donde ya no quiero vivir (El Aleph).

Both are now dead, their bodies discovered, unmarked and unscarred, in their own homes. Jack Reacher, former US military policeman, loner and drifter, knew them both. Psychological profiling points to a smart guy, solitary, army, someone who knew both of his victims. The perfect psychological match, Reacher is arrested by an ambitious FBI Special Agent, Julia Lamarr. But when the body of another woman, Sergeant Lorraine Stanley, is discovered, killed with similar precision, Reacher is released. Everyone fears there is a serial killer on the loose. But the FBI have strong persuasive powers, and before long Reacher finds himself heavily involved in the murder investigation. What have these women got in common and why is someone out to do them harm? In this magnificent, utterly ingenious thriller, Reacher once again saves the day, proving that he is a unique hero, capable of holding his own in any situation, and The Visitor" confirms that Lee Child is more than capable of challenging the established names currently writing in this genre."

Camouflage
The fascinating story of camouflage: from nature to the military to the worlds of art, design, and popular culture.The animal kingdom provides examples of all the essential principles of camouflage: the chameleon, whose colors change to merge with its setting, the zebra, whose vivid stripes disrupt its outline and make it more difficult for predators to sight from a distance, the stick insect that pretends to be what it's not. Creativity in the art of disguise was spurred in World War I by the threats of aerial reconnaissance and long-range enemy fire. Aircraft and ships were painted with lozenge and zigzag patterns to make them more difficult to target. Artists were involved in creating these patterns, and were influenced in turn by the extraordinary painted vessels, said to be like floating cubist paintings. In 1919 the Chelsea Arts Club in London, inspired by wartime camouflage patterns, staged the Dazzle Ball, the first known example of camouflage influencing popular culture. Since then, artists from Pablo Picasso to Andy Warhol to Bridget Riley have explored the themes and extremes of camouflage and optical illusion, while camouflage patterns in clothes and accessories have filtered from the street to high fashion and back again. Uniforms made from camouflage-printed textiles were first developed before World War II, and teams of artists, designers, and scientists worked together to create ever more sophisticated modes of camouflage and disguise. Today's high-tech research on textiles that are resistant to infrared and thermal detection shows a new direction in the future of camouflage. 300 illustrations, 250 in color

World War Z: An Oral History Of The Zombie War
“The end was near.” —Voices from the Zombie WarThe Zombie War came unthinkably close to eradicating humanity. Max Brooks, driven by the urgency of preserving the acid-etched first-hand experiences of the survivors from those apocalyptic years, traveled across the United States of America and throughout the world, from decimated cities that once teemed with upwards of thirty million souls to the most remote and inhospitable areas of the planet. He recorded the testimony of men, women, and sometimes children who came face-to-face with the living, or at least the undead, hell of that dreadful time. World War Z is the result. Never before have we had access to a document that so powerfully conveys the depth of fear and horror, and also the ineradicable spirit of resistance, that gripped human society through the plague years.Ranging from the now infamous village of New Dachang in the United Federation of China, where the epidemiological trail began with the twelve-year-old Patient Zero, to the unnamed northern forests where untold numbers sought a terrible and temporary refuge in the cold, to the United States of Southern Africa, where the Redeker Plan provided hope for humanity at an unspeakable price, to the west-of-the-Rockies redoubt where the North American tide finally started to turn, this invaluable chronicle reflects the full scope and duration of the Zombie War. Most of all, the book captures with haunting immediacy the human dimension of this epochal event. Facing the often raw and vivid nature of these personal accounts requires a degree of courage on the part of the reader, but the effort is invaluable because, as Mr. Brooks says in his introduction, “By excluding the human factor, aren’t we risking the kind of personal detachment from history that may, heaven forbid, lead us one day to repeat it? And in the end, isn’t the human factor the only true difference between us and the enemy we now refer to as â€the living dead’?”Note: Some of the numerical and factual material contained in this edition was previously published under the auspices of the United Nations Postwar Commission.Eyewitness reports from the first truly global war“I found â€Patient Zero’ behind the locked door of an abandoned apartment across town. . . . His wrists and feet were bound with plastic packing twine. Although he’d rubbed off the skin around his bonds, there was no blood. There was also no blood on his other wounds. . . . He was writhing like an animal, a gag muffled his growls. At first the villagers tried to hold me back. They warned me not to touch him, that he was â€cursed.’ I shrugged them off and reached for my mask and gloves. The boy’s skin was . . . cold and gray . . . I could find neither his heartbeat nor his pulse.” —Dr. Kwang Jingshu, Greater Chongqing, United Federation of China“â€Shock and Awe’? Perfect name. . . . But what if the enemy can’t be shocked and awed? Not just won’t, but biologically can’t! That’s what happened that day outside New York City, that’s the failure that almost lost us the whole damn war. The fact that we couldn’t shock and awe Zack boomeranged right back in our faces and actually allowed Zack to shock and awe us! They’re not afraid! No matter what we do, no matter how many we kill, they will never, ever be afraid!” —Todd Wainio, former U.S. Army infantryman and veteran of the Battle of Yonkers“Two hundred million zombies. Who can even visualize that type of number, let alone combat it? . . . For the first time in history, we faced an enemy that was actively waging total war. They had no limits of endurance. They would never negotiate, never surrender. They would fight until the very end because, unlike us, every single one of them, every second of every day, was devoted to consuming all life on Earth.” —General Travis D’Ambrosia, Supreme Allied Commander, Europe
