The Curse of Saints - A Szentek Átka
Aya a királynő kéme és bizalmasa, a fegyelemnek és a kötelességnek szenteli életét, és arra használja az istenektől kapott adottságát, hogy megakadályozza a sötét varázslat visszatérését. Megesküdött rá, hogy megvédi a harcostársait, Willt is beleértve, aki a királynő végrehajtója és Aya ádáz ellensége.
Mivel a körülmények rákényszerítik őket arra, hogy együttműködjenek egymással, átmenetileg törékeny fegyverszünetet kötnek. Ám amikor bekövetkezik egy tragédia, Aya gondolkodás nélkül cselekszik, és szabadjára engedi azt az erőt, amit a világ ötszáz évvel ezelőtt látott utoljára. Aya majdnem összeroppan, és szembe kell néznie egy képtelenségnek tűnő igazsággal, ami azzal fenyegeti, hogy elveszíti az irányítást önmaga fölött. Kénytelen együttműködni Will-el, mert ki kell deríteniük, ki is Aya valójában. És talán fegyverként fogják használni egy bizonytalan kimenetelű háborúban.
Will-lel az oldalán és a különleges erő birtokában Ayának el kell döntenie: az-e a küldetése, hogy megmentse szeretett világát - vagy pedig az, hogy elpusztítsa.
The Borgias - Power and Fortune
* * A Daily Mail Book of the Week * *
The sensational story of the rise and fall of one of the most notorious families in history.
____________________
'A wickedly entertaining read' The Times
____________________
The Borgias have become a byword for evil. Corruption, incest, ruthlessness, avarice and vicious cruelty - all have been associated with their name. But the story of this remarkable family is far more than a tale of sensational depravities - it also marks the golden age of the Italian Renaissance and a decisive turning point in European history.
From the family's Spanish roots and the papacy of Rodrigo Borgia, to the lives of his infamous offspring, Lucrezia and Cesare - the hero who dazzled Machiavelli, but also the man who befriended Leonardo da Vinci - Paul Strathern tells the captivating story of this great dynasty and the world in which they flourished.

The Hobbit
This is a new paperback edition of JRR Tolkien's fantasy masterpiece, The Hobbit". "The Hobbit" is a tale of high adventure, undertaken by a company of dwarves in search of dragon-guarded gold. A reluctant partner in this perilous quest is Bilbo Baggins, a comfort-loving unambitious hobbit, who surprises even himself by his resourcefulness and skill as a burglar. Encounters with trolls, goblins, dwarves, elves and giant spiders, conversations with the dragon, Smaug, and a rather unwilling presence at the Battle of Five Armies are just some of the adventures that befall Bilbo. Bilbo Baggins has taken his place among the ranks of the immortals of children's fiction. Written by Professor Tolkien for his own children, "The Hobbit" met with instant critical acclaim when published."
Into the Wild
By examining the true story of Chris McCandless, a young man, who in 1992 walked deep into the Alaskan wilderness and whose SOS note and emaciated corpse were found four months later, internationally bestselling author Jon Krakauer explores the obsession which leads some people to explore the outer limits of self, leave civilization behind and seek enlightenment through solitude and contact with nature. 'An astonishingly gifted writer: his account of 'Alex Supertramp' is powerfully dramatic, eliciting sympathy for both the idealistic, anti-consumerist boy - and his parents' Guardian 'A compelling tale of tragic idealism' The Times

Fra Angelico and the Rise of the Florentine Renaissance
Fra Angelico and the Rise of the Florentine Renaissance investigates the beginnings of Florentine Renaissance art, with the friar painter Fra Angelico at the centre of the story. Fra Angelico is one of the great masters of Renaissance art and responsible for its early achievements in Florence alongside the painters Masaccio, Masolino, Uccello and Filippo Lippi, the sculptors Ghiberti, Donatello, and Nanni di Banco, and the architect Brunelleschi. Fra Angelico is sometimes seen as separate from his contemporaries, because of his status as a friar.
A reconsideration of the chronology of his key early works demonstrates that not only was he a full participant in the artistic culture of his times, but a key innovator: the Prado's great Annunciation Altarpiece, Fra Angelico's breakthrough work from the mid-1420s, is the first Renaissance-style altarpiece in Florence. The Altarpiece has been the subject of extensive conservation and technological research at the Prado, the results of which are presented for the first time here. This catalogue focuses around that masterpiece, as well as two other recently acquired Fra Angelico paintings: the Alba Madonna and the Funeral of Saint Anthony Abbot.

Wintering: The power of rest and retreat in difficult times
'Every bit as beautiful and healing as the season itself' Elizabeth Gilbert
'A gentle exploration of the dark season of life and the light of spring that eventually follows' Raynor Winn, bestselling author of The Salt Path and The Wild Silence
Wintering is a poignant and comforting meditation on the fallow periods of life, times when we must retreat to care for and repair ourselves. Katherine May thoughtfully shows us how to come through these times with the wisdom of knowing that, like the seasons, our winters and summers are the ebb and flow of life.

The Prom - A végzős bál
Csak te meg én és egy DAL. Emma Nolannek és Alyssa Greene-nek közös a célja: egy párként szeretnének mutatkozni a végzősök iskolai bálján. Csakhogy van néhány bökkenő – oké, lehet, hogy több is. Alyssa még nem coming outolt. Nem mintha nem szeretne, de az anyukája a szülői munkaközösség tagja, és mindent elkövet, hogy azonos nemű párok ne vehessenek részt a bálon. Így Alyssának érthető módon nem nagy kedve van megbeszélni ezt vele. Hamarosan az egész város felsorakozik Mrs. Greene mögött, és nagyon úgy néz ki, Emma és Alyssa nem fognak boldogan élni, amíg meg nem halnak. Egyszer csak a semmiből megjelenik két Broadway-sztár, akik hajlandók harcba szállni a lányokért (némi publicitásért cserébe). De amikor a jó szándékuk csődöt mond, Emmán és Alyssán van a sor, hogy megmutassák az indianai kisvárosuknak – no meg az egész világnak –, hogy a szerelem az szerelem. A regény alapjául a hasonló című, Tony-díjra jelölt, világhódító musical szolgált. Új, netflixes filmváltozatában Meryl Streep és Nicole Kidman a főszereplők. „A The Promban mindent megkapsz, amit a saját bálodon is szívesen viszontlátnál. Varázslatos, egyedi, vicces, és mindez felsőfokon. Káprázatos könyv!” – Rachel Hawkins, NYT bestsellerszerző „A főszereplők hitelesen szólalnak meg, a történet érzékletesen adja vissza az első szerelem varázslatát. A regény élvezetéhez nincs szükség a musical ismeretére, teljes élményt nyújt.” – Kirkus Reviews Szereted a Vörös pöttyös könyveket? Vidd haza nyugodtan! Tetszeni fog. 16 éves kortól ajánljuk!

The Three Musketeers (Wordsworth Classics)
Introduction and Notes by Keith Wren, University of Kent at Canterbury A historical romance, The Three Musketeers tells the story of the early adventures of the young Gascon gentleman, D'Artagnan and his three friends from the regiment of the King's Musketeers - Athos, Porthos and Aramis. Under the watchful eye of their patron M. de Treville, the four defend the honour of the regiment against the guards of Cardinal Richelieu, and the honour of the queen against the machinations of the Cardinal himself as the power struggles of seventeenth century France are vividly played out in the background. But their most dangerous encounter is with the Cardinal's spy, Milady, one of literature's most memorable female villains, and Dumas employs all his fast-paced narrative skills to bring this enthralling novel to a breathtakingly gripping and dramatic conclusion
Případ manželky ve středních letech - The Case of the Middle-Aged
Zatímco s většinou detektivních románů Agathy Christie měl český čtenář možnost se seznámit, značná část její rozsáhlé povídkové tvorby zůstává do češtiny nepřeložená. Opět se zde setkáváme se svéráznou slečnou Marplovou v povídce Útočiště, s metodickým Herculem Poirotem v povídce Vražda na plese a s Parkerem Pynem v povídce nazvané Případ manželky ve středních letech.

The time traveler´s wife
This extraordinary, magical novel is the story of Clare and Henry who have known each other since Clare was six and Henry was thirty-six, and were married when Clare was twenty-two and Henry thirty. Impossible but true, because Henry is one of the fi
rst people diagnosed with Chrono-Displacement Disorder: periodically his genetic clock resets and he finds himself pulled suddenly into his past or future. His disappearances are spontaneous and his experiences are alternately harrowing and amusing.
The Time Traveler's Wife depicts the effects of time travel on Henry and Clare's passionate love for each other with grace and humour.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto knihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vám zašleme, nemusí mať rovnakú
