Český betlém The Child is Born
První betlém na světě vystavěný ze slov, i tak by se dala nazvat moderní podoba betlémského příběhu v českém a anglickém jazyce, která vznikala pět let. Autor spojený s blues, rockem i webovými subkulturami experimentuje se sonetovou formou. V doprovodu dětských kreseb z mezinárodní soutěže nabízí vícevrstevný pohled na svět bez obvyklého adventního pozlátka.
Kniha na více než jedno přečtení oslovuje českého i zahraničního čtenáře úvahou o morálních souřadnicích třetího tisíciletí.

The Fellowship of the Ring
Continuing the story begun in The Hobbit, this is the first part of Tolkien's epic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings, featuring a striking black cover based on Tolkien's own design, the definitive text, and a detailed map of Middle-earth. Sauron, the Dark Lord, has gathered to him all the Rings of Power -- the means by which he intends to rule Middle-earth. All he lacks in his plans for dominion is the One Ring -- the ring that rules them all -- which has fallen into the hands of the hobbit, Bilbo Baggins. In a sleepy village in the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds himself faced with an immense task, as his elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to his care. Frodo must leave his home and make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ring and foil the Dark Lord in his evil purpose. Now published again in B format, J.R.R. Tolkien's great work of imaginative fiction has been labelled both a heroic romance and a classic fantasy fiction. By turns comic and homely, epic and diabolic, the narrative moves through countless changes of scene and character in an imaginary world which is totally convincing in its detail.
The day the country died
Anglie je kolébka punku a právě historii punku v letech osmdesáté v zemi zaslíbené se věnuje tato kniha. Její autor aktivně působil ve scéně v jejích zlatých časech a pomocí spousty jiných veteránů se mu podařilo vytvořit skvěle čtivou směsku která mapuje anglickou anarchopunk scénu a kapely jako Crass, Conflict, Zounds, Subhumans a mnoho jiných. Nechybí doporučené diskografie a fotografie.

Cesta k pólu A Journey to the Pole Kora Kailash DVD
„Fascinující osobitý dokument, výborné spojení obrazu a zvuku…..., některé zvukové momenty se vsákly do obrazu natolik, že jejich výsledná kombinace na mne v určitých chvílích působila až hypnoticky! Je to dobrodružství, které vás určitě vtáhne a pohltí!“ řekl po shlédnutí filmu Shiva Dhakal , ředitel královské horolezecko- trekingové společnosti RMT v Káthmandú (Nepál). DVD ´CESTA – Journey´ vzniklo jako další realizační výstup projektu „Z PÓLU NA PÓL“, jehož zakladatelem je Oldřich Bubák. Ten je zároveň kameramanem i producentem tohoto filmu. (Pozn. Oldřich Bubák je prvním Čechem, který došel na severní pól {1996} a jižní pól {1999} pěšky na lyžích) DVD – Journey´ je uspořádáno do dvou částí. První, s názvem ´CESTA K PÓLU´, je cestou autora k jižnímu pólu v Antarktidě, tedy ke geografickému pólu. Druhá, s názvem ´KORA KAILASH´, je cestou autora k duchovnímu pólu, k nejposvátnější hoře světa - Mt. Kailash, ležící v západním Tibetu . Oba filmy bez použití komentáře, doprovázené velmi citlivě zkomponovanou hudbou, jsou v souladu s ní členěné do jednoduchých ´vět´, mající svůj logický a emotivní smysl; mimořádná, fascinující bohatost obrazu jde jakoby proti hudbě a činí z filmu podmanivou podívanou. DVD je ve dvou jazykových mutacích a je doplněno o bonusy v podobě rozhovorů a osobních vyjádření aktérů včetně fotogalerie - výběru unikátních barevných fotografií z mnoha expedic Oldřich Bubáka do Antarktidy a do Tibetu. DVD “CESTA – Journey“ lze doporučit jako zcela mimořádný zážitek všem náročným divákům.

The Courage To Be Disliked
The Japanese phenomenon that teaches us the simple yet profound lessons required to liberate our real selves and find lasting happiness. The Courage to be Disliked shows you how to unlock the power within yourself to become your best and truest self, change your future and find lasting happiness. Using the theories of Alfred Adler, one of the three giants of 19th century psychology alongside Freud and Jung, the authors explain how we are all free to determine our own future free of the shackles of past experiences, doubts and the expectations of others.
It's a philosophy that's profoundly liberating, allowing us to develop the courage to change, and to ignore the limitations that we and those around us can place on ourselves. The result is a book that is both highly accessible and profound in its importance. Millions have already read and benefited from its wisdom.
Now that The Courage to be Disliked has been published for the first time in English, so can you.

Lacná kniha Sting:Back on the Beat
Touted by fans for his charisma and scorned by critics for his egomania, Sting is one of the most commercially successful and most controversial rock artists performing today. A schoolteacher from Newcastle, Sting soared to international fame and the top of the seventies rock charts with The Police, one of the most popular bands on the planet. After the band folded, he emerged as a solo start with hit singles, critically acclaimed albums, worldwide sell-out tours, and a host of Grammys, not to mention raves for his work in film and on Broadway. Yet Sting's career has been turbulent-an accomplished jazz bassist and vastly talented musician, he has been charged with playing punk and reggae for careerist convenience. He has been accused of single-handedly breaking up The Police at the peak of its rock band powers. And his much publicized work on behalf of Amnesty International and the Brazilian rainforests has been equally admired and disdained. In this updated edition of the first full-length biography of Sting, Christopher Sandford examines the substance behind the cliche, the creative disagreements--and physical violence--among The Police; the musical intelligence that produced such albums as Nothing Like the Sun and Ten Summoner's Tales; Sting's ecological campaigning and financial dealings; and his numerous sexual entanglements. Here is Sting, the legend, the man, the political activist, the performer who continues to fascinate the world.

Šepot mrtvých
Král králů, vychovaný k vládnutí, to je Bishop Vincent Hayes. Bezohledný, nebezpečný, krutý, i jeho však lze ranit. A když ho dosud loajální bratři z Elitního klubu zradí, je z toho třeba vyvodit důsledky.
Madison ztrácí půdu pod nohama, vykořeněná a ublížená kope kolem sebe. Zlost a žárlivost však musí ustoupit stranou, když přijde útok z jiné strany a vynoří se staří nepřátelé i ztracení přátelé.
Tajnosti a lži bolí, pravda a odhalení však zraňují ještě víc. Dokážou si oba mladí rebelové odpustit a vykročit na společnou cestu?
