Dance of Thieves
A reformed thief and the young leader of an outlaw dynasty lock wits in a battle that may cost them their lives, and their hearts, in a new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Remnant Chronicles.
When the patriarch of the Ballenger empire dies, his son, Jase, becomes its new leader. Even nearby kingdoms bow to the strength of this outlaw family, who have always governed by their own rules. But a new era looms on the horizon, set in motion by a young queen, which makes her the target of the dynasty's resentment and anger.
At the same time, Kazi, a legendary former street thief, is sent by the queen to investigate transgressions against the new settlements. When Kazi arrives in the forbidding land of the Ballengers, she learns that there is more to Jase than she thought. As unexpected events spiral out of their control, bringing them intimately together, they continue to play a cat and mouse game of false moves and motives in order to fulfil their own secret missions.
Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - Zrcadlová četba
Výběr čtyř příběhů slavného detektiva Sherlocka Holmese obsahuje následující povídky: Skandál v Čechách, kde neporazitelného detektiva překoná ženský důvtip, Ligu zrzavých, příběh o nezdařeném pokusu o velkou bankovní loupež, Případ totožnosti, v němž prostoduchá mladá dědička v den svatby marně čeká na svého ženicha, a příběh Pět pomerančových jadérek, kdy Sherlock Holmes nedokáže včas zabránit dovršení tragédie jedné rodiny. Mistr dedukce tedy i přes rozluštění všech záhad nevychází z každého případu jako absolutní vítěz. – The collection of four stories about the famous detective Sherlock Holmes contains the following short stories: A Scandal in Bohemia, where the invincible detective is overcome by female wit, The Adventure of the Red-headed League, the story of a failed attempt on a big bank robbery, A Case of Identity, in which a simple-minded young heiress awaits in vain her groom on her wedding day, and The Five Orange Pips, when Sherlock Holmes cannot prevent in time the completion of the tragedy in one family. So despite unravelling all the mysteries, the master of deduction is not an absolute winner in solving of each case.

Ladislav Mednyánszky, K 100. výročiu úmrtia umelca/ The 100th anniversary of artist’s death
Ladislav MEDNYÁNSZKY (1852 Beckov – 1919 Viedeň) bol jedným z najvýznamnejších maliarov prelomu 19. a 20. storočia a rozhodne najznámejším umelcom Barbizonu u nás. Vo svojej dobe bol uznávaný predovšetkým ako krajinár. Barbizonské chápanie krajiny bolo v súlade s jeho vnútorným svetom a tento typ krajinomaľby v duchu lyrického realizmu, ktorý uprednostňoval zážitok umelca, jeho individuálne pocity a nálady, čoskoro priviedol na majstrovskú úroveň. Prehlboval sa jeho záujem o filozofiu, budhizmus a teozofiu, ktoré zamýšľal istým spôsobom zapracovať do svojich diel.

Drevená dedina - Rivers of Babylon (2)
Rivers of Babylon 2 alebo Drevená dedina je voľné pokračovanie debutového románu Petra Pišťanka. Autor v ňom predviedol to, čo sa už v náznakoch dalo zistiť v jeho predchádzajúcej tvorbe – motivické, no najmä personálne prepájanie jednotlivých príbehov samostatných textov. Rivers of Babylon 2 nie je len pokračovaním a rozvíjaním osudov hrdinov prvého autorovho románu, ale zároveň nadväzuje aj na novelu Muzika z knižky Mladý Dônč. Do popredia sa dostáva jej hlavný hrdina Martin Junec, no i postavy, ktoré mali v prvej časti len epizódny charakter. Ústredný protagonista z prvého románu Rácz sa tu už iba mihne....

Tower of Dawn
A glorious empire. A desperate quest. An ancient secret.
The search for allies extends to a new land in the sixth book of the #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas.
Chaol Westfall and Nesryn Faliq have arrived in the shining city of Antica to forge an alliance with the Khagan of the Southern Continent, whose vast armies are Erilea's last hope. But they have also come to Antica for another purpose: to seek healing at the famed Torre Cesme for the wounds Chaol received in Rifthold.
After enduring unspeakable horrors as a child at the hands of Adarlanian soldiers, Yrene Towers has no desire to help the young lord from Adarlan, let alone heal him. Yet she has sworn an oath to assist those in need, and she will honour it. But Lord Westfall carries his own dark past, and Yrene soon realises that those shadows could engulf them both.
Chaol, Nesryn, and Yrene will have to draw on every scrap of their resilience to overcome the danger that surrounds them. But while they become entangled in the political webs of the khaganate, long-awaited answers slumber deep in the mountains, where warriors soar on legendary ruks. Answers that might offer their world a chance at survival ... or doom them all.
The final battle looms in this sixth book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series.

Spanning a lifetime of love and loss, crossing borders and oceans, Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt, co-authored by her son Harry Whittaker, draws Lucinda Riley's Seven Sisters series to its stunning, unforgettable conclusion.
1928, Paris
A boy is found, moments from death, and taken in by a kindly family. Gentle, precocious, talented, he flourishes in his new home, and the family show him a life he hadn't dreamed possible. But he refuses to speak a word about who he really is.
As he grows into a young man, falling in love and taking classes at the prestigious Conservatoire de Paris, he can almost forget the terrors of his past, or the promise he has vowed to keep. But across Europe an evil is rising, and no-one's safety is certain. In his heart, he knows the time will come where he must flee once more.
2008, the Aegean
The seven sisters are gathered together for the first time, on board the Titan to say a final goodbye to the enigmatic father they loved so dearly.
To the surprise of everyone, it is the missing sister who Pa Salt has chosen to entrust with the clue to their pasts. But for every truth revealed, another question emerges. The sisters must confront the idea that their adored father was someone they barely knew. And even more shockingly: that these long-buried secrets may still have consequences for them today.

A bargain that reveals secrets and ignites passions that neither of them expects.
Together, Envy and Camilla must embark on a perilous journey through the underworld - from glittering demon courts to the sultry vampire realm and beyond - while trying to avoid the most dangerous trap of all: falling in love.

But an ominous warning mars their journey back, and they soon find themselves captured in a tangled web of deceit woven by their greatest enemies and unlikeliest allies, a place where betrayals run deeper and more deadly than either had thought possible, and where timeless ambitions threaten to destroy them both.
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.
