The Kiss Curse - Átkozott csókok
Éldekorált kiadás
Erin Sterling nagy sikerű könyve, az Ex Hex - Csiribú, szerelem! szereplői, Gwyn és a hátborzongatóan jóképű Wells Penhallow visszatérnek, hogy megküzdjenek a varázslókat érintő újabb kihívásokkal és a köztük fellángoló mágikus vonzalommal.
Gwyn Jones boldogan él a Észak-Georgia hegyei között megbúvó Sírvölgyben. Anyjával és unokatestvérével, Vivienne-nel nagyon jó csapatot alkotnak, a Boszorkánykonyha nevű boltja remekül megy, és a városka fiatal boszorkáit is sikeresen terelgeti. Elérkezik a halloween, és minden tökéletes, egy dolgot leszámítva: felbukkan Llewellyn 'Wells' Penhallow, Rhys Penhallow legidősebb bátyja.
Miután Rhys boltot nyit éppen szemben a Boszorkánykonyhával, rádöbben, hogy Gwyn személyében veszedelmes vetélytársa akadt.
A versengés hevében elcsattan egy váratlan, szenvedélyes csók, ezért úgy döntenek, inkább távol tartják magukat egymástól, mágikus vonzalom ide vagy oda. Ám a városkába hamarosan titokzatos boszorkánytársaság érkezik, és Gwyn varázsereje fogyatkozni kezd. Nem marad más választásuk: össze kell fogniuk Wellsszel, hogy kitalálják, mi a boszorkányok szándéka, és hogyan szerezhetik vissza a lány bűbájos képességeit, mielőtt túl késő lenne.

Lacná kniha On Fire: The Burning Case for a Green New Deal (-70%)
For more than twenty years Naomi Klein's books have defined our era, chronicling the exploitation of people and the planet and demanding justice. On Fire gathers for the first time more than a decade of her impassioned writing from the frontline of climate breakdown, and pairs it with new material on the staggeringly high stakes of what we choose to do next.
Here is Klein at her most prophetic and philosophical, investigating the climate crisis not only as a profound political challenge but also as a spiritual and imaginative one. Delving into topics ranging from the clash between ecological time and our culture of 'perpetual now,' to rising white supremacy and fortressed borders as a form of 'climate barbarism,' this is a rousing call to action for a planet on the brink.
With dispatches from the ghostly Great Barrier Reef, the smoke-choked skies of the Pacific Northwest, post-hurricane Puerto Rico and a Vatican attempting an unprecedented 'ecological conversion,' Klein makes the case that we will rise to the existential challenge of climate change only if we are willing to transform the systems that produced this crisis.
This is the fight for our lives. On Fire captures the burning urgency of the climate crisis, as well as the energy of a rising political movement demanding change now.

Lacná kniha Fotbalový Bůh Messi (-50%)
Věřící fotbalisté vbíhají na trávník a na prsou vykreslí rukou pověstný křížek. Jako by říkali: ‚Bože, prosím, ochraňuj mě a přej mi štěstí. Lionel by takový obrázek malovat nemusel, protože fotbalový bůh, ač není, tak v jeho případě snad někde existuje a zázračného chlapce stráží snad od kolébky, aby ho zároveň obdařil geny umělce. Ano, tam někde v argentinském Rosariu se před šestadvaceti lety narodil fotbalový Einstein. Jak Albert automaticky řešil matematické a fyzikální záhady a objevoval neobjevitelné, tak Leo strojově probíhá obranami soupeřů a střílí branky, povětšinou, učebnicové, úžasné. Vše vyhlíží jednoduše a samozřejmě, jako když vás paměť vrací k nejúžasnějším okamžikům fotbalové historie, a najednou zjišťujete, že tato historie by byla ochuzena právě o Messiho, anebo spustíte brankostroje na playstationu. Pomoc a ochranu Boha jako by nepotřeboval, Bůh žije a hraje v něm samotném a on to moc dobře ví, a i proto po každém gólu vystřelí své ruce k nebi.

The 5 Lives of Hilma af Klint
A moving biography, told in vivid illustrations, this graphic novel features key moments in the life of Swedish artist and pioneer of abstract painting Hilma af Klint (1862-1944). Long-underrecognized, af Klint's sensational rediscovery continues to take art audiences by storm.
Artist Philipp Deines traces the story of now world-famous af Klint's unique life and groundbreaking oeuvre through five chapters featuring her development as an artist, her family background, and her relationship to the spiritual. Highlighting how she came to her distinctive paintings, her spiritual quest, and the friends who helped her, this is a story of the strength it took af Klint to continue as an artist against all odds.
Beautifully drawn, brightly colored, and well-researched, this graphic novel is a new way of looking at the story of an artist. Referencing Julia Voss's new biography of af Klint, Deines presents an accessible and lively introduction for many ages. Biography, art history, and contemporary narrative style merge and complement each other in these magnificent visual worlds.

The Age of AI
An A.I. that learned to play chess discovered moves that no human champion would have conceived of. Driverless cars edge forward at red lights, just like impatient humans, and so far, nobody can explain why it happens. Artificial intelligence is being put to use in sports, medicine, education, and even (frighteningly) how we wage war. In this book, three of our most accomplished and deep thinkers come together to explore how A.I. could affect our relationship with knowledge, impact our worldviews, and change society and politics as profoundly as the ideas of the Enlightenment.

Sci-Fi and Fantasy Stories From 'The Sun'
Later described as "the lost giant of American science fiction," Edward Page Mitchell wrote many science fiction and fantasy short stories in the 1870's to 1890's, nearly all of which were published anonymously in the The Sun daily newspaper of New York. Mitchell was editor-in-chief of The Sun and was a member of the Pulitzer Prize Board for many years. Mitchell introduced many technological and social predictions which were daring for the time, prior to similar predictions by famous authors, such as travel by pneumatic tube, electrical heating, newspapers printed in the home by electrical transmission, food-pellet concentrates, international broadcasts, suspended animation of a living human being through freezing (cryogenics), a man rendered invisible by scientific means, a time-travel machine, faster-than-light travel, a thinking computer, a cyborg, matter transmission or teleportation, voting by American women, and interracial marriage. His fantasy stories dabble with the occult and bizarre, involving ghosts, the Devil, masochism, inanimate objects coming to life, and more.THE TACHYPOMP (April 1894),THE SOUL SPECTROSCOPE (19 December 1875),THE FACTS IN THE RATCLIFF CASE (07 March 1879),THE STORY OF THE DELUGE (29 April 1875),THE PROFESSOR'S EXPERIMENT (22 February 1880),THE INSIDE OF THE EARTH (27 February 1876),THE BALLOON TREE (25 February 1883),OLD SQUIDS AND LITTLE SPELLER (19 July 1885),THE MAN WITHOUT A BODY (25 March 1877),THE ABLEST MAN IN THE WORLD (04 May 1879),THE SENATOR'S DAUGHTER (27 July 1879),THE CRYSTAL MAN (30 January 1881),THE CLOCK THAT WENT BACKWARD (18 September 1881),and 17 more are contained in this anthology, 30 in all, with an introduction about The Sun by the contributor of this work to Feedbooks' public domain collection.

Through the Looking Glass (And What Alice Found There)
Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There (1871) is a work of children's literature by Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson), generally categorized as literary nonsense. It is the sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865). Although it makes no reference to the events in the earlier book, the themes and settings of Through the Looking-Glass make it a kind of mirror image of Wonderland: the first book begins outdoors, in the warm month of May, on Alice's birthday (May 4), uses frequent changes in size as a plot device, and draws on the imagery of playing cards; the second opens indoors on a snowy, wintry night exactly six months later, on November 4 (the day before Guy Fawkes Night), uses frequent changes in time and spatial directions as a plot device, and draws on the imagery of chess. In it, there are many mirror themes, including opposites, time running backwards, and so on.

All Is Moving on the Western Front
What challenges are facing the Western world in the early 21st century? What fate is awaiting the nation states? Will they continue to exist or will they be replaced by empires? What will the role of the state be? Will it shrink and lose significance or, on the contrary, grow stronger? Will everybody have to work, will they have a job in the future? In all events, will there be enough work for all? And what fate is awaiting the family? How about belief? What will follow from the prolongation of human life? Can social welfare systems, one of the most important achievements of the 20th century, be maintained? Can we wait until the West offers new answers and proposals for solutions or should we make up our minds and follow our own ideas? These are some of the questions to which Mária Schmidt seeks answers in this volume. While her point of view is undoubtedly that of a historian, her thoughts are focused on the future.

The Redemption of Time
Published with the blessing of Cixin Liu, The Redemption of Time extends the astonishing universe conjured by the Three-Body Trilogy. Death is no release for Yun Tianming - merely the first step on a journey that will place him on the frontline of a war that has raged since the beginning of time.
At the end of the fourth year of the Crisis Era, Yun Tianming died. He was flash frozen, put aboard a spacecraft and launched on a trajectory to intercept the Trisolaran First Fleet. It was a desperate plan, a Trojan gambit almost certain to fail. But there was an infinitesimal chance that the aliens would find rebooting a human irresistible, and that someday, somehow, Tianming might relay valuable information back to Earth.
And so he did. But not before he betrayed humanity.
Now, after millennia in exile, Tianming has a final chance at redemption. A being calling itself The Spirit has recruited him to help wage war against a foe that threatens the existence of the entire universe. A challenge he will accept, but this time Tianming refuses to be a mere pawn... He has his own plans.
Published with the blessing of Cixin Liu, The Redemption of Time extends the astonishing universe conjured by the Three-Body Trilogy. You'll discover why the universe is a 'dark forest', and for the first time, you'll come face-to-face with a Trisolaran...

House of Salt and Sorrows
In a manor by the sea, twelve sisters are cursed.
Annaleigh lives a sheltered life at Highmoor with her sisters and their father and stepmother. Once there were twelve, but loneliness fills the grand halls now that four of the girls' lives have been cut short. Each death was more tragic than the last--the plague, a plummeting fall, a drowning, a slippery plunge--and there are whispers throughout the surrounding villages that the family is cursed by the gods.
Disturbed by a series of ghostly visions, Annaleigh becomes increasingly suspicious that her sister's deaths were no accidents. The girls have been sneaking out every night to attend glittering balls, dancing until dawn in silk gowns and shimmering slippers, and Annaleigh isn't sure whether to try to stop them or to join their forbidden trysts. Because who--or what--are they really dancing with?
When Annaleigh's involvement with a mysterious stranger who has secrets of his own intensifies, it's a race to unravel the darkness that has fallen over her family--before it claims her next. House of Salt and Sorrows is a spellbinding novel filled with magic and the rustle of gossamer skirts down long, dark hallways. Be careful who you dance with...
And don't miss Erin Craig's Small Favors, a mesmerizing and chilling novel about dark wishes and even darker dreams.

The Invention of Sound
Chuck Palahniuk returns with the chilling tale, in classic Palahniuk tradition, of a father in search of his daughter, a young woman with a secret, and a malicious recording that can make "the whole world scream at the exact same time."
Private detective Foster Gates is a father is in search of his missing daughter, and sound engineer Mitzi harbors a secret that may help him solve the case. It's Mitzi's job to create the dubbed screams used in horror films and action movies. She's the best at what she does.
But what no one in Hollywood knows is the screams Mitzi produces are harvested from the real, horror-filled, blood-chilling screams of people in their death throes--a technique first employed by Mitzi's father and one she continues on in his memory--a deeply conflicted serial killer compelled beyond her understanding to honor her father's chilling legacy.
Soon Foster finds himself on Mitzi's trail. And in pursuit of her dark art, Mitzi realizes she's created the perfect scream, one that compels anyone who hears it to mirror the sound as long as they listen to it--a highly contagious seismic event with the potential to bring the country to its knees.

Lacná kniha Pohlreich (-70%)
Nový český fenomén má jméno ZDENĚK POHLREICH. Vládne pomalu všem kuchyním, protože o něm uslyšíme ve většině domácností a také restaurací. Ve světě patří špičkoví kuchaři mezi celebrity dlouhodobě, u nás jen několik let. Je však nepochybné, že právě hrdina této knihy měřítkem popularity zastínil všechny své kolegy. Jak tohle vzrůstem nevelký a prostovlasý muž dokázal? Je zřejmé, že platí za zkušeného a skvělého kuchaře, ale to není sám, Zdeněk Pohlreich však ostatní brzy "převálcuje" úžasným uměním komunikace s kolegy, hosty restaurací, a zejména s televizním divákem.Dnes je u nás bezpochyby nejznámějším a také nejkontroverznějším kuchařem. Pozná ho snad každý, jeho televizní hlášky se staly součástí lidové slovesnosti podobně jako hlášky z nejslavnějších českých filmů. Na jeho gastronomických představeních v rámci nejrůznějších festivalů bývá přeplněno, pražské kurzy vaření jsou téměř okamžitě vyprodány. Vlastní v metropoli dvě vyhlášené restaurace - secesní Café Imperial a italskou Divinis, které patří mezi dostaveníčka gurmánů a gurmetů z celého světa. Kuchařky, kterých vydal několik v záviděníhodných nákladech, jsou z nejprodávanějších na trhu.Je milován (i zatracován) pro svou přímočarost, otevřenost a přirozenost (projevující se i vypípávanými momenty), s nimiž hodnotil úroveň jednotlivých restaurací v Česku v televizní reality show "Ano, šéfe!", a zároveň oceňován pro vysokou profesionalitu pramenící z bohatých zkušeností v zahraničí i na domácí scéně, kde po návratu z emigrace působil v těch nejlepších hotelích a restauracích.Zdeněk Pohreich také vychoval několik nadějných a talentovaných adeptů "haute cuisine" neboli vysoké gastronomie, kteří dnes excelují - například Romana Pauluse, držitele dvou michelinských hvězdiček, nebo Jiřího Štifta, porotce televizní kuchařské show "Master Chef".Svérázného, osobitého a nenapodobitelného mistra šéfkuchaře zkušená autorka biografií známých osobností představuje ve své knize jako člověka z masa a kostí, jehož život se odvíjel ve vlnách úspěchů i dopadů na samé dno, který se však nikdy nevzdal a dokázal své sny a přání uskutečnit i přes nepřízeň osudu.
