ABRAXAS
Az ABRAXAS olyan talizmán, mely a Baszilidész-féle szekta szellemvilágának szimbóluma. A gnosztikus szekta a késő ókori időszakban fejlődött ki és élte virágkorát. Maga az ABRAXAS formula az istenség gnosztikus nevét szimbolizálja, melynek görög betűkkel írott számértéke 365, ami az egészet jelenti. (A=1, B=2, R=100, A=1, X=60, A=1, S=200). Maga az ABRAXAS istennév kapcsolódik a görög Aión-hoz, valamint az iráni eredetű Zurvan időistenhez és Varunához, a hindu égistenhez. A kép, illetve a felirat gyakran jelenik meg különböző talizmánokon. A legalsóbb égfokozat szimbolizálja a földet a teremtényeivel egyetemben, mindaz, ami rajta megtalálható, az azonos az istenség fokozatos emanációjával. Ilyen értelemben az ABRAXAS gemma viselése a védelem és védettség eszméjét személyesíti meg, tehát a viselője az istenség védelmét élvezi.
Oslobodená - Crossfire 5
Záver celosvetovo preslávenej päťdielnej romantickej ságy Crossfire.
Gideon Cross. Zamilovať sa doňho bola najjednoduchšia vec na svete. Stalo sa to okamžite. Úplne. A nezvratne.
Vydať sa zaňho bolo ako uskutočniť si najodvážnejší sen. No zostať s ním v manželstve, to je boj. Láska sa mení. Tá naša sa stala prístavom, v ktorom sa skrývame pred nečasom, a sama je zároveň hroznou búrkou. Dve zranené duše sa spojili do jednej.
Prezradili sme jeden druhému svoje najhlbšie a najhoršie tajomstvá. Gideon je zrkadlo, ktoré odráža moje nedostatky... a tiež krásu, ktorú som v sebe nedokázala uvidieť. Dal mi všetko. Teraz musím dokázať, že viem byť jeho skalou a útočiskom, tým, čím je on pre mňa. Spoločne môžeme čeliť ľuďom, ktorí sa nás zlomyseľne pokúšajú rozdeliť.
Najťažšie však zápasíme o prísahu, ktorou sme si jeden druhého zaviazali. Sľúbiť večnú lásku, to bol len začiatok. O lásku treba bojovať, a to nás buď oslobodí, alebo... naveky rozlúči.
Strhujúci, plný romantiky a emócií, záverečný diel série Crossfire prináša finále, ktoré milióny čitateliek očakávali so zatajeným dychom. Skutočné vyvrcholenie duší a tiel.

Čo okom nevidíš
V dedinke Westerwald vládne magická atmosféra. Žije v nej stará žena Selma, ktorá dokáže predpovedať smrť. Zakaždým, keď sa jej v sne zjaví africká antilopa okapia, niekto v dedine zomrie. Nie je však isté, kto to bude, a tak sú obyvatelia Westerwaldu ustavične v strehu. Možno je to ich posledná príležitosť nájsť odvahu a vysloviť zamlčané alebo nasledovať svoje srdce bez ohľadu na prekážky.
Rozprávačkou príbehu je Selmina vnučka Luisa, ktorá tiež čelí smrti blízkeho. Zároveň v priebehu desaťročí odkrýva portrét dediny, kde je všetko zázračným spôsobom prepojené. Viac ako o smrti je však Luisino rozprávanie o láske a strate, ktoré formujú človeka, a o odvahe hľadať svoje miesto vo svete...

The Secret Heart
The astonishing new portrait of the master of spy fiction, by the woman he kept secret for almost half his life
John le Carre led a life entirely constructed of secrets. First as a British 'spook' during the Cold War, then as a world-renowned writer of espionage fiction, but also in his personal involvements. He guarded his private life with fierce determination, so that even when he finally permitted his life story to be written, there was still one element he insisted be excluded: the women.
Married with children for virtually all his adult life, le Carre - David Cornwell - had a number of secret affairs, usually conducted abroad with women encountered by chance on his travels. These relationships were always intense, dramatic, even tragic, yet each was destined to last no more than a few months. But there was one love affair that withstood the test of time; just one woman in all his life whom he took into the innermost sanctum of his writing and his heart.
The Secret Heart is the account of Suleika Dawson's unique and enduring love affair with John le Carre. Written with fearless honesty and insight, the book sheds a bold new light on one of the foremost British writers of the 20th century and offers an alternative measure of the man over the literary legend.
Someone Else's Shoes
A story of mix-ups, mess-ups and making the most of second chances, this is the new novel from international sensation Jojo Moyes, author of Me Before You and The Giver of Stars. Who are you when you are forced to walk in someone else's shoes?
Meet Sam... She's not got much, but she's grateful for what she has: a job she's just about clinging on to and a family who depend on her for everything. She knows she's one bad day away from losing it all - and just hopes today isn't it...
Meet Nisha... She's got everything she always dreamed of - and more: a phenomenally rich husband; an international lifestyle; and...she's just been locked out of all of it after her husband initiates divorce proceedings...
Sam and Nisha should never have crossed paths. But after a bag mix-up at the gym, their lives become intertwined - even as they spiral out of control.
Each blames the other as they feel increasingly invisible, forgotten, lost - and desperately alone. But they're not. No woman is an island. Look around. Family. Friends. Strangers. Even the woman you believe just ruined your life might turn out to be your best friend. Because together you can do anything - like take back what is yours...
A Runner's High
Dean Karnazes has pushed his body and mind to inconceivable limits, from running in the shoe-melting heat of Death Valley to the lung-freezing cold of the South Pole. He's raced and competed across the globe and once ran 50 marathons, in 50 states, in 50 consecutive days.
In A Runner's High, Karnazes chronicles his return to the Western States 100-Mile Endurance Run in his mid-fifties after first completing the race decades ago. The Western States, infamous for its rugged terrain and extreme temperatures, becomes the most demanding competition of his life, a physical and emotional reckoning and a battle to stay true to one's purpose. Confronting his age, wearying body, career path and life choices, we see Karnazes as we never have before, raw and exposed. A Runner's High is both an endorphin-fuelled page-turner and a love letter to the sport from one of its most celebrated ambassadors.
Sladké nič
Čosi také by zlomilo azda každého muža: sledoval som, ako mi pomedzi prsty prekĺzava to, čo sa mohlo stať mojou budúcnosťou – navyše skôr, ako som to pevne uchopil. Nikdy by mi nenapadlo, že môžem prísť o ženu, ktorú ľúbim, ešte predtým, než si ju naozaj získam. Navštevujem ju denne a čakám – na nemožné, na znamenie, na to, že sa na mňa pozrie...
Stačil mi naňho jediný pohľad. Vo vedľajšom jazdnom pruhu pred semaforom sedel v aute muž, do ktorého som sa zaľúbila a za ktorého som sa vydala. Ľudia rozprávajú o láske, ktorá vyžaduje čas – človek sa musí postupne zaľúbiť. My sme
sa však do seba buchli okamžite, a keď sa naše životy preplietli, už som nebola taká ako predtým. Bol to muž, ktorého som chcela prechovávať v srdci po celý zvyšok života a ktorého deti som túžila priviesť na svet. V zlomku sekundy sa začal náš spoločný život – a v rovnako krátkom čase sa skončil.

Babi Yar
The rediscovered Ukrainian classic - the gripping story of Kyiv during the Second World War, told by a young boy who saw it all.
'Read it and weep... Nothing I have read about that barbaric time has been as affecting as this gripping, disturbing book - rightly hailed a masterpiece' Daily Mail
'So here is my invitation: enter into my fate, imagine that you are twelve, that the world is at war and that nobody knows what is going to happen next...'
It was 1941 when the German army rolled into Kyiv. The young Anatoli was just twelve years old. This book is formed from his journals in which he documented what followed.
Many Ukrainians welcomed the invading army, hoping for liberation from Soviet rule. But within ten days the Nazis had begun their campaign of murdering every Jew, and many others, in the city. Babi Yar (Babyn Yar in Ukrainian) was the place where the executions took place. It was one of the largest massacres in the history of the Holocaust. Anatoli could hear the machine guns from his house.
This gripping book is the story of Ukraine's Nazi occupation, told by one ordinary, brave child. His clear, compelling voice, his honesty and his determination to survive guide us through the horrors of that time. Babi Yar has the compulsion and narration of fiction but everything recounted in this book is true.
Revolusi
On a sunny Friday morning in August 1945, a handful of tired people raised a homemade cotton flag and on behalf of 68 million compatriots announced the birth of a new nation. With the fourth largest population in the world, inhabiting islands that span an eighth of the globe, Indonesia became the first colonised country to declare its independence after the Second World War.
Four million civilians had died during the wartime occupation by the Japanese that ousted the Dutch colonial regime. Another 200,000 people would lose their lives in the astonishingly brutal conflict that ensued - as the Dutch used savage violence to reassert their control, and as Britain and America became embroiled in pacifying Indonesia's guerrilla war of resistance: the 'Revolusi'. It was not until December 1949 that the newly created United Nations convinced the Netherlands to cede all sovereignty to Indonesia, finally ending 350 years of colonial rule and setting a precedent that would reshape the world.
Drawing on hundreds of interviews and eye-witness testimonies, David Van Reybrouck turns this vast and complex story into an utterly gripping narrative that is alive with human detail at every turn. A landmark publication, Revolusi shows Indonesia's struggle for independence to be one of the defining dramas of the twentieth century and establishes its author as one of the most gifted narrative historians at work in any language today.

Anna: The Biography
This definitive biography of Anna Wintour chronicles the steep climb of an ambitious young woman who would, with singular and legendary focus, become the most powerful woman in media.
As a child, Anna Wintour was a tomboy with no apparent interest in clothing but, seduced by the miniskirts and bob haircuts of swinging 1960s London, she grew into a fashion-obsessed teenager. Her father, the influential editor of the Evening Standard, loomed large in her life, and once he decided she should become editor in chief of Vogue, she never looked back.
Impatient to start her career, she left high school and got a job at a fashionable boutique in London - an experience that would be the first of many defeats. Undeterred, she found work in the competitive world of magazines, eventually moving to New York. Before long, Anna's journey to Vogue became a battle to ascend, no matter who or what stood in her way. Once she was crowned editor in chief - in one of the stormiest transitions in fashion magazine history - she continued the fight to retain her enviable position, ultimately rising to dominate all of Conde Nast.
Based on extensive interviews with Anna Wintour's closest friends and collaborators, including some of the biggest names in fashion, journalist Amy Odell has crafted the most revealing portrait of Wintour ever published. Weaving Anna's personal story into a larger narrative about the hierarchical dynamics of the fashion industry and the complex world of Conde Nast, Anna charts the relentless ambition of the woman who would become an icon.
