Fans of the hit Supergirl series on The CW will love this fresh take on the Girl of Steel from writer Steve Orlando in Supergirl Vol. 3: Girl of No Tomorrow. The Emerald Empress has had a vision. Sometime in the future, her greatest tragedy will come as a result of a battle with Supergirl...and she won't allow that to happen.

It starts with a devious attack on Supergirl that leaves her powers out of control and slowly destroying her. But the Fatal Five aren't just going after Supergirl--every aspect of Kara Zor-El's life on Earth is under attack. Her boss Cat Grant and the new CatCo Reporting app. Her family and friends at the Department of Extranormal Operations. Even her relationship to the National City citizens she loves and protects.
One thing is certain--the Fatal Five will mean either the end of Supergirl's life...or the end of her life as she knows it.

Lacná kniha Pierko a kameň (-90%)
Sibell Delahuntyová prežila stroskotanie lode, na ktorej však zahynuli jej rodičia. Ocitne sa v neznámej austrálskej krajine, kde sa musí sama postarať o svoje živobytie. Uchádza sa o miesto spoločníčky Charlotte Hamiltonovej, ktorá žije na stanici Black Wattle v Severnom teritóriu. Drsné prostredie izolovanej dobytčej stanice je spočiatku pre Angličanku s jemnými spôsobmi šokujúce a Charlottina rodina sa k nej tiež nespráva najvľúdnejšie. Život jej spríjemňuje len Charlottina milota a časom aj vzrastajúci záujem jej slobodného syna Zacka. Po strašnej pohrome prichádza stanica o svoju paniu. Sibell sa chopí vedenia domácnosti a napriek počiatočným nehodám si pomaly získa rešpekt celej rodiny. Objaví v sebe nečakanú silu a húževnatosť. No hoci v sebe Sibell objaví nečakanú silu, odvahu a húževnatosť, drsná a nemilosrdná krajina pre ňu má ešte jednu ťažkú skúšku. Až keď v nej obstojí, bude sa môcť v novej vlasti cítiť skutočne doma.

The Sacrifice
Best-selling author Joyce Carol Oates blends sexual violence, racism, brutality, and power in an incendiary novel that explores the persistence of stereotypes, the nature of revenge, and how the complexities of truth are lost in our hunger for sensationalism. Best-selling author Joyce Carol Oates returns with an incendiary novel that illuminates the tragic impact of sexual violence, racism, brutality, and power on innocent lives and probes the persistence of stereotypes, the nature of revenge, the complexities of truth, and our insatiable hunger for sensationalism. When a fourteen-year-old girl is the alleged victim of a terrible act of racial violence, the incident shocks and galvanises her community, exacerbating the racial tension that has been simmering in this New Jersey town for decades. In this magisterial work of fiction, Joyce Carol Oates explores the uneasy fault lines in a racially troubled society. In such a tense, charged atmosphere, Oates reveals that there must always be a sacrifice - of innocence, truth, trust, and, ultimately, of lives. Unfolding in a succession of multiracial voices, in a community transfixed by this alleged crime and the spectacle unfolding around it, this profound novel exposes what - and who - the "sacrifice" actually is, and what consequences these kind of events hold for us all. Working at the height of her powers, Oates offers a sympathetic portrait of the young girl and her mother, and challenges our expectations and beliefs about our society, our biases, and ourselves. As the chorus of its voices - from the police to the media to the victim and her family - reaches a crescendo, "The Sacrifice" offers a shocking new understanding of power and oppression, innocence and guilt, truth and sensationalism, justice and retribution. A chilling exploration of complex social, political, and moral themes - the enduring trauma of the past, modern racial and class tensions, the power of secrets, and the primal decisions we all make to protect those we love - "The Sacrifice" is a major work of fiction from one of our most revered literary masters.

The Secret Diaries Of Miss Anne Lister 1
When this volume of Anne Lister's diaries was first published in 1988, it was hailed as a vital piece of lost lesbian history. The editor, Helena Whitbread, had spent years painstakingly researching and transcribing Lister's extensive journals, much of which were written in an elaborate code - what Lister called her 'crypthand', which allowed her to record her life in intimate, and at times, explicit, detail. Until then, Anne Lister's lesbianism had been supressed or hinted at; this was the first time her story had been told. Anne Lister defied the role of nineteenth-century womanhood: she was bold, fiercely independent, a landowner, industrialist, traveller and lesbian - a woman who lived her life on her own terms.
Essays 1891-1929
Tato kniha nabitá poznatky, přitom čtivá a bohatě ilustrovaná, ukazuje, jak se vyvíjela dávná věda o hvězdách a na ní založené obrazy světa a jak lze zdánlivou protikladnost astronomie a astrologie integrovat na vyšší úrovni. Čtenář zde přitom najde odpovědi na nejrůznější otázky: Proč jsou Johannes Kepler a Tycho Brahe pro historii astronomie tak důležití? Proč na jaře přestává být viditelné souhvězdí Oriona? Jak může horoskop narození zobrazovat skutečnost? Jaký je smysl analogií, například Mars - železo - červená barva? A proč je pro mnoho lidí důležité, v jakém souhvězdí zvěrokruhu se právě nachází Měsíc? Kniha pro všechny, kdo rádi pozvednou zrak k hvězdnému nebi, chtějí o něm vědět více a mají chuť poznat fascinaci integrální naukou o hvězdách.

Amikor elhagytak (új kiadás)
A Nápolyi regények szerzőjétől Olga, a csinos és okos fiatal nő harmonikus családban neveli két gyermekét, egészen egy átlagos délutánig, amikor a férje minden előzmény nélkül bejelenti: elhagyja. A fülledt, elnéptelenedett Torinóban Olga végigjárja a közhelyesnek is mondható stációkat, megpróbálja visszaszerezni a férjét, nyomoz a vetélytárs után, jelenetet rendez a nyílt utcán, sosem sejtett mélységekbe zuhan, otthona széthullik, gyerekei ellene fordulnak, kifordul önmagából. Pokoljárását a múlt kísértetei övezik, de a legfőbb ellenfele önmaga. Kíméletlenül szembesülnie kell egész korábbi életével, csak azután találhat vissza régi énjéhez és teremthet új kapcsolatot. A történetből egy szerelem bukásának, egy párkapcsolat kiüresedésének megrendítő eseményei bontakoznak ki – Olga útja, amelyet tragédiákkal terhelten, konok makacssággal végigjár, drámaian egyedi, és éppen egyediségében hordozhat megváltó üzenetet minden sorstársának. Talán ezért is volt akkora siker a közönség és a kritikusok köreiben egyaránt. Elena Ferrante a kortárs világirodalom nagy rejtélye. Regényei zajos sikert aratnak, díjakat nyernek, számos nyelvre lefordítják őket, de kiléte ismeretlen. 2016-ban a Time magazin az év 100 legbefolyásosabb személye közé választotta. Leghíresebb műve, a Nápolyi regények tetralógia eddig 15 millió példányban kelt el, Saverio Costanzo rendezésében az első két részből (Briliáns barátnőm, Az új név története) HBO-sorozat is készült. Az Amikor elhagytak című regényt Roberto Faenza filmesítette meg (A magány börtöne).
