King of Scars - A sebhelyes cár
Nézz szembe a démonoddal - vagy etesd rendesen!
Nyikolaj Lancovnak mindig is volt tehetsége a lehetetlenhez. Senki sem tudja, mit élt át hazája véres polgárháborújában - és jobb is, ha ez így marad. Most, amikor ellenségek gyülekeznek az ország meggyengült határainál, a fiatal cárnak meg kell találnia a módját, hogy feltöltse Ravka kincstárát, új szövetségeket kössön, és felszámolja az egykor nagyszerű grisahadseregre leselkedő fenyegetést.
Ám minden egyes nappal erősebbé válik benne a sötét varázslat, ami azzal fenyeget, hogy elpusztítja mindazt, amit felépített. Egy fiatal szerzetes és egy legendás grisa szélhívó segítségével Nyikolaj elutazik Ravka azon helyeire, ahol a legerősebb mágia él, hogy legyőzze a benne rejlő szörnyű örökséget. Mindent kockára tesz, hogy megmentse az országát és önmagát. Akadnak azonban olyan titkok, amelyeket nem szabad eltemetni - és olyan sebek, amelyeket nem szabad begyógyítani.

Faced with the possibility of becoming the thing she hates most, Isolde seeks other ways to defy him and survive the brutal vampire court. Except it isn't the court she fears most-it's Adrian.

King 1: King
Nincs hol laknia. Nincs mit ennie. Nincs kihez fordulnia.
Doe nem emlékszik a múltjára.
A hírhedt nehézfiú most szabadult a börtönből.
King az az alak, akivel jobb nem szembekerülni, mert vérrel, fájdalommal, szexszel, vagy ezek kombinációjával fizet meg az ember.
King jövője azon múlik, hogyan tudja egyensúlyozni az életét.
Doe történetét homály fedi.
Amikor sorsuk összefonódik, rá kell döbbenniük, hogy a folytatáshoz meg kell tanulniuk elengedni addigi életüket.
Romantika és erotika, krimivel fűszerezve - a tökéletes elegy az olvasói szívek megdobogtatásához.

Teória King Kong
Silná, provokatívna a osobná kniha je úprimnou výpoveďou o tom, ako sa autorka kultovej trilógie Život Vernona Subutexa stala Virginie Despentes. Čerpá z osobných skúseností, rúca zaužívané predstavy o znásilnení a prostitúcii a búra zaužívané postoje o sexe a pohlaví.
Autobiografický feministický manifest spisovateľky a filmárky Virginie Despentes je „plný hnevu a tak presne formulovaný, že je nespravodlivé ho zhrnúť". – Nadja Spielgelman
„Despentes je často označovaná za ‚rockandrollového‘ Balzaca. . . Striedavo pripomína aj Williama Gibsona, George Eliot a Michela Houellebecqa, len s optimistickejším postojom." Chris Kraus
„Virginie Despentes je skutočne originálna punkrocková George Eliot s citom pre žalostné vnútro svojich postáv: nikto iný nemá jej prenikavý pohľad, ostrý zmysel pre humor, inteligenciu, ktorá ako žiletka reže do nánosu zaužívaných vzorcov myslenia našej doby.“ Alexandra Kleeman
„Despentes sa stala akousi kultovou hrdinkou, patrónkou neviditeľných žien: ohavných a marginalizovaných, vyčerpaných, unavených a prudko nezamestnateľných." Parul Sehgal
„Prequel k #MeToo. Jedinečný radikálny hlas queer feministiek, ktorý bol kľúčový pre transformáciu beletristického písania aj politického diania v roku 2010.“ Paul B. Preciado
Teória King Kong, autobiografia, výzva k revolte, manifest nového punkového feminizmu, je autorkiným najobľúbenejším a najzavrhovanejším dielom.

The King James Version of the Bible
The King James Version (KJV), also known as the King James Bible (KJB) or simply the Authorized Version (AV), is an English translation of the Christian Bible for the Church of England, was commissioned in 1603 and completed as well as published in 1611 under the sponsorship of James VI and I. The books of the King James Version include the 39 books of the Old Testament, an intertestamental section containing 14 books of the Apocrypha, and the 27 books of the New Testament. Noted for its "majesty of style", the King James Version has been described as one of the most important books in English culture and a driving force in the shaping of the English-speaking world. It was first printed by John Norton & Robert Barker, both the King's Printer, and was the third translation into English approved by the English Church authorities: The first had been the Great Bible, commissioned in the reign of King Henry VIII (1535), and the second had been the Bishops' Bible, commissioned in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I (1568). In Geneva, Switzerland the first generation of Protestant Reformers had produced the Geneva Bible of 1560 from the original Hebrew and Greek scriptures, which was influential in the writing of the Authorized King James Version. In January 1604, King James convened the Hampton Court Conference, where a new English version was conceived in response to the problems of the earlier translations perceived by the Puritans, a faction of the Church of England. James gave the translators instructions intended to ensure that the new version would conform to the ecclesiology of, and reflect the episcopal structure of, the Church of England and its belief in an ordained clergy. The translation was done by 6 panels of translators (47 men in all, most of whom were leading biblical scholars in England) who had the work divided up between them: the Old Testament was entrusted to three panels, the New Testament to two, and the Apocrypha to one. In common with most other translations of the period, the New Testament was translated from Greek, the Old Testament from Hebrew and Aramaic, and the Apocrypha from Greek and Latin. In the Book of Common Prayer (1662), the text of the Authorized Version replaced the text of the Great Bible for Epistle and Gospel readings (but not for the Psalter, which substantially retained Coverdale's Great Bible version), and as such was authorized by Act of Parliament. By the first half of the 18th century, the Authorized Version had become effectively unchallenged as the English translation used in Anglican and English Protestant churches, except for the Psalms and some short passages in the Book of Common Prayer of the Church of England. Over the course of the 18th century, the Authorized Version supplanted the Latin Vulgate as the standard version of scripture for English-speaking scholars. With the development of stereotype printing at the beginning of the 19th century, this version of the Bible became the most widely printed book in history, almost all such printings presenting the standard text of 1769 extensively re-edited by Benjamin Blayney at Oxford, and nearly always omitting the books of the Apocrypha. Today the unqualified title "King James Version" usually indicates this Oxford standard text.

The Song of Achilles
A beautiful new limited edition paperback of The Song of Achilles, published as part of the Bloomsbury Modern Classics list
The god touches his finger to the arrow's fletching. Then he breathes, a puff of air - as if to send dandelions flying, to push toy boats over water. And the arrow flies, straight and silent, in a curving, downward arc towards Achilles' back.
Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the court of King Peleus and his perfect son Achilles. Despite their differences, the boys develop a tender friendship, a bond which blossoms into something deeper as they grow into young men.
But when Helen of Sparta is kidnapped, Achilles is dispatched to distant Troy to fulfil his destiny. Torn between love and fear for his friend, Patroclus follows, little knowing that the years that follow will test everything they hold dear.

Na konci cesty - Krematórium v Bratislave - At the End of the Road The Bratislava Crematorium
Kniha sa podrobne zaoberá mimoriadnym architektonickým dielom - bratislavským krematóriom. Postavili ho pred pol storočím (1968) za neobyčajne priaznivej súhry okolností, no predchádzal tomu dlhý zápas o jeho zriadenie, ktorého počiatky siahajú až do roku 1889. Preto kniha približuje aj históriu moderného kremačného hnutia v Európe so zreteľom na dlhý zápas mesta Bratislava o krematórium, ďalej sa zaoberá domácimi a zahraničnými architektonickými podnetmi, ktoré ovplyvnili architektúru objektu. Okrem príbehu samotnej budovy a urnového hája, v ktorom stojí, sa dočítate o tvorivej dráhe autora budovy, architekta Ferdinanda Milučkého, príslušníka prvej povojnovej slovenskej architektonickej generácie, ale aj súvislostiach vzniku pozoruhodných výtvarných diel z areálu krematória - sôch od troch špičkových slovenských výtvarníkov. Text Matúša Dullu v slovenčine a angličtine sprevádzajú umelecké fotografie Olje Triašky Stefanović. Snímky citlivo zachytávajú premeny krematória a prostredia, v ktorom sa nachádza, počas jednotlivých ročných období. Publikácia vychádza pri príležitosti päťdesiateho výročia vzniku prvého slovenského krematória.
The Education of an Idealist
'Her highly personal and reflective memoir ... is a must-read for anyone who cares about our role in a changing world' Barack Obama
THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY:
The New York Times * Time * The Economist * The Washington Post * Vanity Fair * Times Literary Supplement
'What can one person do?' In this vibrant, galvanizing memoir, human rights advocate and Pulitzer-Prize winning writer Samantha Power offers an urgent response to this question.
As she traces her path from Irish immigrant to war correspondent and activist to eventually becoming the youngest-ever US Ambassador to the United Nations, Power writes with a unique blend of suspenseful storytelling, vivid character portraits and disarming honesty.
Her account illuminates the challenges of navigating the halls of power while trying to put one's ideals into practice (and raise two young children along the way), and it shows how - even in the face of daunting challenges - each of us can make a difference.
