Příběhy kacířství
Když se vojevůdce Horus vzbouřil proti Císaři, vypukla občanská válka, která téměř zničila Impérium. V celé galaxii zuří boje, když se někteří Astrates postavili proti svým bratrům ve zbrani. Jediným vítězem této vleklé války je smrt. Ale už dávno předtím se legie potýkaly s určením své identity vůči požadavkům Velkého křížového tažení.
Povídky v knize popisují bitvy svedené v době, kdy se Velké křížové tažení chýlí ke konci a zrodilo se Horovo kacířství, které na sebe bere nejrůznější podoby - od šarvátek s kacíři a mimozemskými vetřelci až po konflikty v samotných legiích nebo dokonce s vlastním svéhlavým primarchou.
Sbírka povídek z cyklu Horovo kacířství.

Check & Mate
In this clever and swoonworthy new novel from the New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis, life's moving pieces bring rival chess players together in a match for the heart. Mallory Greenleaf is done with chess. Every move counts nowadays; after the sport led to the destruction of her family four years earlier, Mallory's focus is on her mom, her sisters, and the dead-end job that keeps the lights on.
That is, until she begrudgingly agrees to play in one last charity tournament and inadvertently wipes the board with notorious 'Kingkiller' Nolan Sawyer: current world champion and reigning Bad Boy of chess. Nolan's loss to an unknown rookie shocks everyone. What's even more confusing? His desire to cross pawns again.
What kind of gambit is Nolan playing? The smart move would be to walk away. Resign. Game over.
But Mallory's victory opens the door to sorely needed cash-prizes and despite everything, she can't help feeling drawn to the enigmatic strategist... As she rockets up the ranks, Mallory struggles to keep her family safely separated from the game that wrecked it in the first place. And as her love for the sport she so desperately wanted to hate begins to rekindle, Mallory quickly realizes that the games aren't only on the board, the spotlight is brighter than she imagined, and the competition can be fierce (-ly attractive.
And intelligent... and infuriating...)This novel is suitable for both young adult and adult audiences.

I was not Born for Quiet
Thanks to Janko Kráľ, as John Minahane has written, the Váh is Slovakia’s most mystical river. Again and again the poet returns to his community via that flagship poem of Slovak romanticism, The Enchanted Maiden in the Váh and Odd Johnny. Characteristic in Kráľ’s poetry is his focus on the inward side of events and stories, turned inside out, since one has to turn one’s clothing inside out/ and leap in the middle of the Váh. By this means, metaphysical space is opened. There the spirit is so blended together with reality that it becomes possible to break the spell on the maiden (motherland) in the river Lethe, which is life’s inverted clepsydra. Time always freshly poses the question, which young man wants to give body to his thought. And what unwinds from that is not only a defiant faith in the mission of poetry, but also Janko Kráľ’s courage to stand up for the language and national rights of Slovaks in 1848. To give the time a face where our identity is mirrored.
To this day we do not know exactly how Janko Kráľ looked in reality. Using the surviving descriptions of Kráľ’s appearance, he therefore created a metaphysical portrait with the digital tool Metahuman Creator, which is designed for creating figures for video games. Subsequently he placed this virtual figure in a contemporary context, in the form of manipulated photographs from the mass media.

Lacná kniha Pocta Morfeovi (-70%)
Studium psychoanalýzy přivedlo autora publikace k zaznamenáváním svých snů, které analyzoval.
Soubor snů pokrývá období třiceti let a navazuje na úctyhodnou tradici, kterou má „oneirická“ literatura ve světovém i českém písemnictví. Jsou to např. Jindřich Štyrský, Jakub Deml, Jan Weiss, ale třeba i Karel Jaromír Erben.
Mnohé uvedené sny mají silný hermetický podtext a jak sám autor píše „...nečinil jsem rozdílu mezi tím, jestli ke mně ten či onen sen přišel branou z rohoviny nebo branou ze slonoviny. Vyloučil jsem pouze sny, které nesly neklamnou pečeť toho, že přišly branou z voloviny.
I to se člověku někdy stává...“. I když několik snů již bylo zveřejněno (např. v časopisech Svět magie, Horus či v knize Magie) nalezne čtenář v dalších více než šedesáti snech hermetické poučení i poetickou inspiraci.
