Lacná kniha Desivá symetria (-70%)
V Desivej symetrii sa podivuhodne splietajú osudy dvoch párov identických dvojčiat. Angličanky Elspeth a Edie sa kedysi z neznámych dôvodov pohádali a od chvíle, keď Edie odišla s manželom do Ameriky, sa nevideli. Keď Elspeth v Londýne zomrie na rakovinu, odkáže celý svoj majetok vrátane krásneho bytu sestriným dcéram Julii a Valentine. Tie majú práve dvadsať jeden rokov a sú „zrkadlové dvojčatá“ – Valentina má syndróm situs inversus (všetky orgány a črty má zrkadlovo prevrátené). Podľa podmienok tetinej poslednej vôle sa musia do bytu nasťahovať a rok v ňom žiť, aby naň získali plný nárok. Pod dvojčatami žije Elspethin partner Robert, historik, ktorý píše dizertačnú prácu o viktoriánskom cintoríne Highgate, s ktorým dom susedí. Nad nimi zase býva čudák Martin, ktorý trpí vážnou obsedantno-kompulzívnou poruchou, takže nevychádza z bytu. Nerozlučné dvojčatá postupne spoznávajú nielen Londýn, ale aj svojich susedov. Krehká a submisívna Valentina sa zblíži s trúchliacim Robertom, extrovertná a bezohľadná Julia zase s Martinom, ktorého nedávno opustila milovaná manželka.
Valentina túži vymaniť sa z Juliinho područia a začať žiť vlastný život, nezávisle od sestry, ale Julia to odmieta. Obe však zakrátko zistia, že v byte s nimi ešte niekto býva: Elspethin duch...

Nostradamův kód
Due to the pressure and scrutiny of the Inquisition, Nostradamus was forced to scramble both the meaning and the order of his quatrains. He made sure humanity would not be able to decode them until we had become sophisticated enough. With the discove
ry of the lost manuscript, that time has finally arrived. Using cutting-edge data mining techniques, Dr. Michael Rathford sifted this complex word puzzle searching for significant patterns and relationships. Almost immediately, he came up with the pr
edictive model known as The Nostradamus Code. When the prophecies-within-prophecies are deciphered, the hidden timeline of World War III is revealed. You will read about Osama Bin Laden, the next major terrorist attack on the US, war with Iran, the n
uclear destruction of Rome, a confrontation between the US and China/Russia, and great detail on the timing and the course of World War III.

Zamlčaná pravda
Píše sa rok 1942 a Európa sa zmieta vo vojne. Tesne za stanmi ruského utečeneckého a vojenského tábora Buzuluk skladá svadobný sľub mladá dvojica. Je to rozhodnutie, ktoré zmení jej osud, a zároveň klamstvo, ktoré vypláva na povrch až v nasledujúcom storočí.
Už od útlej mladosti Alina Dziaková vedela, že jedného dňa sa vydá za svojho najlepšieho priateľa Tomasza. Keď sa v pätnástich zasnúbia, správy o nacistických vojakoch na poľskej hranici jej ešte nerobia starosti. Verí, že nepredstavujú skutočnú hrozbu, a sníva o dni, keď sa Tomasz vráti z vysokej školy vo Varšave a konečne sa vezmú. Alinin domov však okupujú nacisti a neveľké mestečko a rodiny, ktoré v ňom žijú, rozdeľuje strach a hnev. Životy ľudí sa pomaly rozpadajú a vtedy sa stane to najhoršie: Tomasz zmizne. Alina sa popri čakaní na správy od neho vyhýba vojakom, ktorí si okolo farmy jej rodičov robia obchôdzky, a zmieta sa medzi nádejou a zúfalstvom.
Alice žije na Floride, má manžela, dve deti, stará sa o domácnosť a život jej akosi uniká pomedzi prsty. Bojí sa o vyše deväťdesiatročnú babku Hannu, ktorú pre jej poľský pôvod volajú babcia. Hannin život sa kráti, a keď skončí v nemocnici, poprosí milovanú vnučku o čosi nezvyčajné: vybrať sa do jej rodného mesta v Poľsku a tam... Alice celkom nerozumie, o čo babke ide, ale vyhovie jej a desaťročia zamlčiavaná pravda ňou hlboko otrasie.

Tlejúce slnko
Tlejúce slnko je životopisný príbeh maliara Miloša Alexandra Bazovského (1899 1968). Turiansky rodák po štúdiách na Akadémii výtvarných umení v Prahe sa ako dvadsaťpäť-ročný vrátil na Slovensko. Čoskoro sa usadil v Martine, odkiaľ podnikal časté cesty po Turci, ako doma sa cítil na Orave, na Horehroní, bytostný vzťah mal ku krajine a k ľuďom pod Poľanou.
V sídelnom meste Matice slovenskej aktívne prežil medzivojnové roky a v totalitných päťdesiatych rokoch musel znášať veľké príkorie. Táto nežičlivosť vyvrcholila vyhnaním z jeho ateliéru, a tak sa utiahol so svojou manželkou na Liptov, kde mal ďalšie významné inšpiračné zázemie. Tam jeho tvorivosť vyvrcholila a začala smerovať, žiaľ, k definitívnemu ukončeniu jeho tvorby.
V poslednom desaťročí svojho života už nemaľoval. Usadil sa v Trenčíne, kde je po ňom pomenovaná verejná galéria.
Bazovský popri Martinovi Benkovi, Zoltánovi Palugyayovi, Jankovi Alexym, Kolomanovi Sokolovi, Ľudovítovi Fullovi a ďalších umelcoch sa natrvalo zaradil medzi zakladateľov národnej výtvarnej moderny. Rozhľadený v európskych maliarskych trendoch 19. a 20. storočia originálne stvárňoval slovenskú realitu citlivými vnemami, poetizujúco, vnútorne monumentalizujúco i s úsmevným nadhľadom. Nad jeho grafikami žánrovo vyniká výstižná kresliarska skratka niekoľkými čiarami, uvoľneným tónovaním, zvýraznením charakteristických objektov v krajine dosahuje obrazovú celistvosť.
Krajinu s obľubou maľoval gvašovou technikou podstatne vážnejšie výsledky dosahoval olejomaľbou. Kritika ho radila medzi najlepších koloristov, expresívnu silu svojho maliarskeho výrazu umocňoval nadčasovými motívmi zo slovenského, predovšetkým vidieckeho, života uprostred horskej krajiny.

More Than A Cowboy Boxed Set
Strong and Steady plus Rough and Ready in one! Warning! This set has two super protective, super hot alpha males who will stop at nothing to protect their women.
STRONG AND STEADY:
They don't call him The Outlaw for nothing.
Grayson Green's nobody’s hero. He's just a hard-working cowboy who's taken his share of knockouts over the years. A man intent on keeping to himself and leaving his past behind. Then Emory walks into his life. She's different. She has no idea who he is or what he's done… and she wants him anyway. When someone from his past is prepared to take him down—and Emory along with him—he'll have to prove he's more than a cowboy.
ROUGH AND READY
When a rough-edged bad boy takes on a straight-laced college professor, can they both win the fight of their life?
Reed Johnson grew up on the streets rough and ready with his fists to survive. These days, all his fighting now is done in the ring. With The Outlaw as his coach, he's way more than a cowboy. That was enough for him, until he meets his new neighbor.
Harper Lane's running from a dangerous past, but no matter how hard she tries, it follows. This time, she's not alone. She runs right into the arms of Reed. She's his now. His to protect. His to save. To do so, he'll have to return to the life he's left behind. But the brainy PhD is worth the fight and with her, he'll be ready for anything. Even something he never thought he deserved. Love.

Ten Trips
A neuropsychologist takes ten different drugs in this panoramic view of psychedelics today
Once demonised and still largely illegal, psychedelic drugs are now officially a 'breakthrough therapy', used to treat depression, trauma and addiction and to enhance well-being. But as neuropsychologist Andy Mitchell shows in this deeply serious yet wildly entertaining investigation, this approach misses what is so strange and valuable about them: the psychedelic experience itself.
In Ten Trips he takes ten different drugs in ten different settings, journeying from a neuroimaging lab in London to the Colombian Amazon via Silicon Valley and his friend's basement kitchen. His encounters with scientists and gangsters, venture capitalists and con-men, psychonauts and shamans provide a panoramic view of psychedelics today: their capacity for healing but also trauma, for transcendence and corruption, profundity and hilarity.
By removing psychedelics from their indigenous and underground cultures, we risk losing the very things we need to harness them. To make them safe or normal might ultimately destroy what makes them potent. That potential is indeed great, not as an antidote to mental illness - none exists - but as a way of changing our whole perspective on mental health and flourishing.
Ten Trips is a dazzling, perception-shifting odyssey that shows how psychedelics can re-enchant us with the world.
To the Lighthouse
To the Lighthouse is at once a vivid impressionistic depiction of a family, the Ramseys, whose annual summer holiday in Scotland falls under the shadow of war, and a meditation on marriage, on parenthood and childhood, on grief, tyranny and bitterness. The novel's use of stream of consciousness, reminiscence and shifting perspectives gives it an intimate, poetic essence, and at the time of publication in 1927 it represented an utter rejection of all that had gone before.
Castles in their Bones
Born to rule. Raised to deceive.
The plot: overthrow a kingdom. The goal: world domination. The plan: marriage.
Empress Margaraux has had plans for her daughters since the day they were born. Princesses Sophronia, Daphne, and Beatriz will be queens. And now, age sixteen, they each must leave their homeland and marry their princes.
Beautiful, smart, and demure, the triplets appear to be the perfect brides - because Margaraux knows there is one common truth: everyone underestimates a girl. Which is a grave mistake. Sophronia, Daphne, and Beatriz are no innocents. They have been trained since birth in the arts of deception, seduction, and violence with a singular goal - to bring down monarchies - and their marriages are merely the first stage of their mother's grand vision: to one day reign over the entire continent of Vestria.
The princesses have spent their lives preparing, and now they are ready, each with her own secret skill, and each with a single wish, pulled from the stars. Only, the stars have their own plans - and their mother hasn't told them all of hers.
Life abroad is a test. Will their loyalties stay true? Or will they learn that they can't trust anyone - not even each other?
Laura Sebastian stuns in this new trilogy from the New York Times bestselling author of Ash Princess. A spellbinding story of three princesses and the destiny they were born for: seduction, conquest, and the crown.
The Last Continent
Rincewind, inept wizard and reluctant hero, has found himself magically stranded on the Discworld's last continent.
It's hot. It's dry. There was this thing once called The Wet, which no one believes in any more. Practically everything that's not poisonous is venomous. But it's the best bloody place in the world, all right?
And in a few days, it will die. The only thing standing between the last continent and wind-blown doom is Rincewind, and he can't even spell wizard. Still . . . no worries, eh?
Climate Change + CD OXBL 2
It's a terrible problem - or it's really not as bad as people say. There will be sudden big changes - or slower changes that we can learn to live with. It means the end for many animals, people, even whole islands - but will this happen soon, or hundreds of years from now? What is the true story about climate change? Why is it happening, and what can we do about it? If we learn about the past, then perhaps there will be time to make changes for the future...
