What Monstrous Gods
A rich and romantic fantasy loosely inspired by the classic Sleeping Beauty fairy tale. Perfect for fans of These Violent Delights and The Shadow Queen.
Centuries ago, the heretic sorcerer Ruven raised a deadly briar around Runakhia's palace, casting the royal family into an enchanted sleep—and silencing the kingdom's gods.
Born with a miraculous gift, Lia's destiny is to kill Ruven and wake the royals. But when she succeeds, she finds her duty is not yet complete, for now she must marry into the royal family and forge a pact with a god—or die.
To make matters even worse, Ruven's spirit is haunting her.
As discord grows between the old and new guards, the queen sends Lia and Prince Araunn, her betrothed, on a pilgrimage to awaken the gods. But the old gods are more dangerous than Lia ever knew—and Ruven may offer her only hope of survival.
As the two work together, Lia learns that they're more alike than she expected. And with tensions rising, Lia must choose between what she was raised to believe and what she knows is right—and between the prince she is bound to by duty … and the boy she killed.

Lendületesen kalandos, humorral ízesített, izgalommal megbolondított és alkalmasint pikánsan tálalt utazásra invitál minket ez a regény, a gyönyörű Velencébe. Ugyanakkor a könyv meghívó a reneszánsz kor karneváli hangulatának bemutatására készülő olasz-magyar kooprodukció filmforgatására A főszereplő Laura, aki a magyar stáb tagja, egy erkölcsi botlása miatt - jelesül más bőrébe bújva jelent meg az Operabálon - egyik bonyodalomból a másikba csöppen... és fut önmaga elől, keresve a JÓ utat, melyet valahol elhagyott, vagy elcserélték alóla, netalán tán a köd nyelte el, esetleg a renenszánsz szeánsz bűbájainak áldozata lett. Az Élet érdekes oldala, hogy a talmi csillogásért pillanatnyi hevületben elvállalt szerep miatt kiderül: két nő megszólalásig tud hasonlítani egymásra. Viszont, mint tudjuk, az átmeneti jelleggel érkezett dolgok szép lassan állandósággá válhatnak, ami nem mindig jó, továbbá nem téveszthető szem elől az sem, hogy a szerencse forgandó. Hiába no, a szeszélyes Velence vízi világa bolond helyzeteket teremthet, melyen még a barátok sem mindig segíthetnek, főleg, ha Laura figyelme inkább összpontosul a körülötte található szépre, mint saját maga épségére Nos, dőljünk hátra kényelmesen, fotelünkben, hisz' ez csak egy mese, amiben kiderülhet, hogy minden jó, ha jó a vége, mondom, kiderülhetne... de ne szaladjunk ennyire előre.

The Scarlet Alchemist
You cannot create good without also creating evil.
Zilan dreams of becoming a royal alchemist, of providing for her family by making alchemical gold and gems for the wealthy to eat in order to stay young forever. But for now, she's trapped in her impoverished village in southern China, practicing an illegal form of alchemy to keep food on the table - resurrecting the dead, for a price.
When Zilan finally has the chance to complete her imperial exams, she ventures to the capital to compete against the best alchemists in the country in tasks she'll be lucky to survive, let alone pass. On top of that, her reputation for raising the dead has followed her, and the Crown Prince himself seeks out her help, suspecting a coming assassination attempt.
The more Zilan succeeds in her alchemy, the more she gets caught in the dangerous political games of the royal family. There are monsters lurking within the palace walls, and it's only a matter of time before they - and secrets of Zilan's past - catch up with her.
A dark YA fantasy duology set in an alternate Tang Dynasty China, where alchemy has led to income inequality as the rich eat gold to achieve eternal youth, and a poor biracial girl with the ability to raise the dead gets caught up in the dangerous political games of the royal family.

The Principle of Moments
6066: In Emperor Thracin's brave new galaxy, humans are not citizens but indentured labourers, working to repay the debt they unwittingly incurred when they settled on Gahraan - a desert planet already owned by the emperor himself. Asha Akindele knows she's just another voiceless cog working the assembly lines that fuel his vast imperial war machine. Her only rebellion: studying stolen aeronautics manuals in the dead of night. But then a cloaked stranger arrives to deliver an impossible message, and her life changes in an instant.
1812: Obi Amadi is done with time-travelling. Never mind the fact he doesn't know how to cure himself of the temporal sickness he caught whilst anchoring his soul to Regency London, the one that unmakes him further with every jump. Or if the prince he loves will ever love him back. Or why his father disappeared. He is done. Until he hears about the ghost of a girl in the British Museum. A girl from another time.
When Obi's path tangles with Asha's and a prophecy awakens in the cold darkness of space, they must voyage through the stars, racing against time, tyranny, and the legacy of three heroes from an ancient religion who may be awakening, reincarnated in ways beyond comprehension.
A love letter to Black readers of science-fantasy, The Principle of Moments is a symphonic, centuries-spanning adventure - unmissable for fans of the spacefaring found family of Becky Chambers, the alternate London of V. E. Schwab, and the virtuosic climate-craft of N. K. Jemisin.
Why Sinead O'Connor Matters
A stirring defense of Sinéad O’Connor’s music and activism, and an indictment of the culture that cancelled her.
In 1990, Sinéad O’Connor’s video for “Nothing Compares 2 U” turned her into a superstar. Two years later, an appearance on Saturday Night Live turned her into a scandal. For many people—including, for years, the author—what they knew of O’Connor stopped there. Allyson McCabe believes it’s time to reassess our old judgments about Sinéad O’Connor and to expose the machinery that built her up and knocked her down.
Addressing triumph and struggle, sound and story, Why Sinéad O’Connor Matters argues that its subject has been repeatedly manipulated and misunderstood by a culture that is often hostile to women who speak their minds (in O’Connor’s case, by shaving her head, championing rappers, and tearing up a picture of the pope on live television). McCabe details O’Connor’s childhood abuse, her initial success, and the backlash against her radical politics without shying away from the difficult issues her career raises. She compares O’Connor to Madonna, another superstar who challenged the Catholic Church, and Prince, who wrote her biggest hit and allegedly assaulted her. A journalist herself, McCabe exposes how the media distorts not only how we see O’Connor but how we see ourselves, and she weighs the risks of telling a story that hits close to home.
In an era when popular understanding of mental health has improved and the public eagerly celebrates feminist struggles of the past, it can be easy to forget how O’Connor suffered for being herself. This is the book her admirers and defenders have been waiting for.
Glossy
'Dame Anna Wintour might be one of the best-known and most successful journalists on the planet. But it wasn't always like that. When she started out on Vogue she was often so miserable she had to phone her husband for help. This is just one of countless fascinating titbits in this zippy story of dizzying fortune, out-of this-world fashion, ingenuity, passion, sex and power.
And, this being fashion, some intense bitchiness too. Started as a gossip magazine for snobbish New Yorkers in 1892, Vogue is now one of the most recognisable brands in the world. Spanning London, New York and Paris, this is a high-speed, fun read full of fascinating though not always likeable people.' Daily Mail
Glossy is a story of more than a magazine. It is a story of passion and power, dizzying fortune and out-of-this-world fashion, of ingenuity and opportunism, frivolity and malice. This is the definitive story of Vogue.
Vogue magazine started, like so many great things do, in the spare room of someone's house. But unlike other such makeshift projects that flare up then fizzle away, Vogue burnt itself onto our cultural consciousness.
Today, 128 years later, Vogue spans 22 countries, has an international print readership upwards of 12 million and nets over 67 million monthly online users. Uncontested market leader for a century, it is one of the most recognisable brands in the world and a multi-million dollar money-making machine. It is not just a fashion magazine, it is the establishment. But what - and more importantly who - made Vogue such an enduring success?
Glossy will answer this question and more by tracing the previously untold history of the magazine, from its inception as a New York gossip rag, to the sleek, corporate behemoth we know now. This will be a biography of Vogue in every sense of the word, taking the reader through three centuries, two world wars, plunging failures and blinding successes, as it charts the story of the magazine and those who ran it.

Sklizeň před námi
„Posilněte svá srdce, vždyť příchod Páně je blízko.“ (Jakub 5:8)
Tématem této brožury je jedna z nejnaléhavějších výzev, aby dělníci vyšli na sklizeň posledních dnů.
Derek se ptá: „A co ty? Co pro tebe znamená život? Pro co žiješ? Jaké místo má Ježíš Kristus ve tvém životě? Ptáš se, jak může být efektivní poté, co do mého života byl vylit Duch Svatý? Odpověď: tím, že se spojíš s Božím záměrem.“
Derek Prince říká, že sklizeň je přímo přede dveřmi a Bůh bude potřebovat stovky dělníků, kteří hodí srp Jeho Slova a budou sklízet. Přišel čas sklízet, protože žeň země uzrála.
