A Taste of Gold and Iron
A sweeping fantasy romance inspired by the Ottoman Empire, A Taste of Gold and Iron by Alexandra Rowland is perfect for fans of A Marvellous Light and The Goblin Emperor.
One false coin could topple an empire.
Kadou, the shy prince of Arasht, has no intention of wrestling for imperial control with his sister, the queen. Yet he remains at odds with one of the most powerful ambassadors at court – the father of the queen’s new child. Then a hunting party goes terribly awry, and Kadou finds himself under suspicion of attempted murder.
To prove his loyalty to his sister and salvage his reputation, Kadou takes responsibility for the investigation of a break-in at one of their guilds. He enlists the help of his newly appointed bodyguard, the coldly handsome Evemer, who seems to tolerate him at best. But what appears to be a straightforward crime spirals into a complex counterfeiting operation, with a powerful enemy at its heart.
In Arasht, where princes can touch-taste precious metals with their fingers and myth runs side by side with history, counterfeiting is heresy. The conspiracy they discover could cripple the kingdom’s financial standing – and bring about its ruin.

Zrcadlová četba - Crime and Punishment (B1-B2)
This abridged and linguistically adapted version of Crime and Punishment endeavors to introduce the reader to the masterpiece of the Russian author Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky. The writer himself characterized it as a psychological record of one crime. Rodion Romanovitch Raskolnikoff is a poor student who has been forced to give up his university studies. He withdraws from society and plans to murder an old moneylender. He is convinced that murder and robbery of a despicable, mean old woman who oppresses her sister and exploits her clients will sure enough be excused, or even approved of, and make many good deeds possible. But this story is not about the crime... Tato jazykově upravená a zestručněná verze románu Zločin a trest se čtenáři pokouší představit vrcholné dílo ruského autora Fjodora Michajloviče Dostojevského. Spisovatel sám jej charakterizoval jako psychologický záznam jednoho zločinu. Rodion Romanovič Raskolnikov je chudý student, který byl z finančních důvodů nucen zanechat studia na univerzitě. Stáhne se i ze společnosti a naplánuje vraždu staré lichvářky. Je přesvědčen, že vražda a oloupení zavrženíhodné, zlé stařeny, která utiskuje svou sestru a odírá své klienty, bude jistě prominuta, ne-li dokonce schvalována, a umožní mnoho dobrých skutků. Tento příběh však není o zločinu...
Lord Edgware umírá - audiokniha
Mrtví hovoří. Ano, někdy mrtví hovoří… – Hercule Poirot
Krásná herečka Jane Wilkinsonová prohlásila, že snad bude muset svého manžela – bohatého, ale výstředního lorda Edgwarea – zabít, když se s ní odmítá rozvést. Naštěstí ale potkává Hercula Poirota, který se uvolí přimět ho k dohodě. K velkému překvapení slavného detektiva i kapitána Hastingse šlechtic s rozvázáním svazku nejenže souhlasí, ale dokonce o tom prý lady Edgwareovou již dávno dopisem informoval. Užaslá Jane je novinkou nadšená! Následující den oba staré přátele navštíví inspektor Japp, aby je zpravil o vraždě lorda Edgwarea, kterému prý jeho choť zabodla v domě v Regent Gate nůž do krku. Má to však jeden háček, protože jak se píše v ranních novinách – a později to potvrdí i řada svědků –, lady byla v inkriminovanou dobu hostem na večírku v Chiswicku…

For humans and vampires, the rules of survival are the same: never trust, never yield, and always – always – guard your heart.
The adopted human daughter of the Nightborn vampire king, Oraya carved her place in a world designed to kill her. Her only chance to become something more than prey is entering the Kejari: a legendary tournament held by the goddess of death herself.
But winning won’t be easy amongst the most vicious warriors from all three vampire houses. To survive, Oraya is forced to make an alliance with a mysterious rival.
Everything about Raihn is dangerous. He is a ruthless vampire, an efficient killer, an enemy to her father’s crown… and her greatest competition. Yet, what terrifies Oraya most of all is that she finds herself oddly drawn to him.
But there’s no room for compassion in the Kejari. War brews, shattering everything that Oraya thought she knew about her home. And Raihn may understand her more than anyone – but their blossoming attraction could be her downfall, in a kingdom where nothing is more deadly than love.
The Serpent & the Wings of Night is the first book in the Crowns of Nyaxia series.

The Future of Geography: How Power and Politics in Space Will Change Our World
Space: the biggest geopolitical story of the coming century – new from the multi-million-copy international bestselling author of Prisoners of Geography
Spy satellites orbiting the Moon. Space metals worth billions. Humans on Mars within our lifetimes.
This isn’t science fiction. It’s astropolitics.
We’re entering a new space race – and it could revolutionise life on Earth.
Space: the new frontier, a wild and lawless place. It is already central to communication, economics, military strategy and international relations on Earth. Now, it is the latest arena for human exploration, exploitation – and, possibly, conquest. We’re heading up and out, and we’re taking our power struggles with us. China, the USA and Russia are leading the way.
From physical territory and resources to satellites, weaponry and strategic choke points, geopolitics is as important in the skies above us as it is down below. If you’ve ever wondered if humans are going back to the Moon, who will benefit from exploration or what space wars might look like, the answers are here.
With all the insight and wit that have made Tim Marshall the UK’s most popular writer on geopolitics, this gripping book shows how we got here and where we’re going, covering great-power rivalry; technology; commerce; combat in space; and what it means for all of us down here on Earth. This is essential reading on power, politics and the future of humanity.
Stories of Your Life and Others
With Stories of Your Life and Others, his masterful debut collection, multiple-award-winning author Ted Chiang deftly blends human emotion and scientific rationalism in eight remarkably varied stories.
From a soaring Babylonian tower that connects a flat Earth to the firmament above, to a world where angelic visitations are a wondrous and terrifying part of everyday life; from a neural modification that eliminates the appeal of physical beauty, to an alien language that challenges our very perception of time and reality, Chiang’s unique imagination invites us to question our understanding of the universe and our place in it.
The title novella 'Story of Your Life' was the basis for the Academy Award-winning film Arrival, starring Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner.
Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literateure.
Of Mice and Men
Introducing Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas and essays from the world's greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith.
Celebrating the range and diversity of Penguin Classics, they take us from snowy Japan to springtime Vienna, from haunted New England to a sun-drenched Mediterranean island, and from a game of chess on the ocean to a love story on the moon. Beautifully designed and printed, these collectible editions are bound in colourful, tactile cloth and stamped with foil.
Drifters in search of work, George and his childlike friend Lennie have nothing in the world except the clothes on their back - and a dream that one day they will have some land of their own. Eventually they find work on a ranch in California's Salinas Valley, but their hopes are dashed as Lennie becomes a victim of his own strength. Tackling universal themes of friendship and shared vision, and giving a voice to America's lonely and dispossessed, Of Mice and Men remains Steinbeck's most popular work, achieving success as a novel, Broadway play and three acclaimed films.

Arjun Roy and the Cavern Lord
About the book:
What if a few people's imagination which you don't believe in, comes true to mess your life? I, Arjun Roy, was living a peaceful middle class life in Bangalore, dancing and playing guitar studying in class seven. But one incident changed my whole life and put me in a war against racism. How did I make it out? This book is all about how it all began. Now this guy with an experience of six days has to defeat a commander - in - chief.About the author:
Mohit L. Kumar, never heard of this name? That's because this book is his first release.Being a thirteen years old student even now, he wasn't quite confident about this series. Hearing stories about Hindu Mythology from his grandpa and grandma he had a keen interest in this topic which drove him into making this series. Still continuing his schooling in Saint Lawrence, he comes from a town in Odisha called Angul. He read books by different authors and studied their take on Hindu Mythology and finally he presents his version. He has other hobbies like dancing and playing guitar.
"At least once, you all might have wondered, what if we were connected to someone great back from the ancient times? If yes, then this book will surely make you assured of your thoughts. Arjun Roy was fun writing. Those who know me will easily find him a penned down version of me. Here goes my vision to you. I hope you enjoy the most out of it. Waiting for me to note my achievements? Sorry, I don't have anything to present here." ~ Mohit
