Cyntoryn zvieratiek
Doktor Louis Creed dostane nové zamestnanie a presťahuje sa s rodinou zo zadymeného Chicaga do idylického vidieckeho mesta Ludlow v Maine. Starý, ale pohodlný dom poskytuje dostatočný priestor na to, aby sa v ňom rodina cítila dobre a deti vyrastali v bezpečí uprostred mainskej prírody. Začiatok nového života sa však zdá až priveľmi dobrý na to, aby bol skutočný. Napriek navonok pokojnej atmosfére je v Ludlowe čosi temné a nebezpečné.
Nákladné autá na ceste priamo pred Creedovým krásnym starým domom jazdia akosi prirýchlo. Dôkazom toho je provizórny cintorín v neďalekom lese, kde celé generácie detí pochovávajú svojich zvieracích miláčikov. Smutné miesto, ale bezpečné. Celkom isto bezpečné. Nie také, čo vám preniká do snov, budí vás a vy sa od strachu a zlej predtuchy potíte...
Louis zachytáva rozličné varovania. Niektoré sú celkom reálne, iné akoby z hlbín jeho vlastných nočných mor. Podľa nich by nemal prekročiť hranice tohto malého cintorína, hoci ho láka zvodnými sľubmi a bezbožnými pokušeniami. Skrýva sa tam desivá pravda – omnoho desivejšia než smrť sama a oveľa mocnejšia. Louis prichádza na to, že niekedy je lepšie byť mŕtvy...
Podľa New York Times je bestseller Cyntoryn zvieratiek (Pet Sematary) bestseller číslo jeden, divoká, silná a vzrušujúca klasika o zle, ktoré existuje ďaleko za hrobom – Kingov najikonickejší a najobľúbenejší román.

Hello Human: A History of Visual Communication
A kaleidoscopic journey tracing the methods and means of visual communication from the cave paintings of the earliest humans to the 'photograph' of a black hole in deep space.
Since the beginning of our time as humans, we have never stopped making images and inventing channels for visual communication. From the cave dweller creating paintings on a wall at the dawn of civilized time to Instagram influencers today, technology may keep changing, but our need to reach one another, to move one another, to persuade, inform and entertain, has never been so vital.
Hello Human traverses the entire landscape of our diverse, expansive and yet familiar means of visual communication. From the use of the human hand as a symbol, the power and use of gestures and the genesis of the printed book, to the movement between dimensions of reality and the digital realm, pixilation, optics and the understanding of light, Horsham takes his readers on a journey full of unexpected twists and turns, laying out a temporal narrative in the form of an intricate map of objects, events and people tied together by a common purpose - to communicate.
No Signal
Between 2015 and 2020, photographer Brice Portolano travelled from the islands of Alaska to the Patagonian steppe and from the forests of Lapland to the highlands of Iran to capture the daily lives of 10 extraordinary people who made profound changes in their lives in order to live closer to nature. They consciously built a life away from the hustle and bustle of the city, usually without a phone signal or internet access. Their lives are arduous, but also full of a sense of personal freedom, self-determination, and fulfilment. These photographs present an inspiring vision of the joys of finding one's place in the world and the challenges of living off the grid.
In these 10 vivid portraits of alternative lifestyles, we meet: Tinja, the dog sled driver in Lapland; Ali, the Persian horseman; Barny, the self-supporter in a circus wagon in Cumbria, England; Zaya, the reindeer herder in the Mongolian taiga; George, the hostel father in Tuscany; Sylwia, the artist on the Greek island of Lefkada; Sky, the Argentinean goucha; Ben, the hunter in Utah, USA; Jerry, the oyster farmer in Alaska; Elena, the lighthouse keeper in Norway.

Eyes of the Void
From the author of the thrilling science-fiction epic Children of Time, which won the prestigious Arthur C. Clarke Award. Eyes of the Void is the second high-octane instalment in Adrian Tchaikovsky's Final Architecture space opera trilogy.
What waits in the shadows as we fight our greatest foe?
After one great battle, the Architects disappeared. Yet humanity’s fragile peace is brief. For, forty years later, the galaxy’s greatest alien enemy has returned. This time, the artefacts that preserved entire worlds from destruction are ineffective. And no planet is safe.
The Human Colony worlds are in turmoil as they face extinction. Some believe alliances with other species can save them. Others insist humanity must fight alone. But no one has the firepower or technology to ensure victory, as the Architects loom ever closer.
Idris spent decades running from the last war’s horrors. Yet as an Intermediary, altered to navigate deep space, he’s one of humanity’s only weapons. He’s therefore forced back into action. With a handful of allies, Idris must find something – anything – to stop the Architects’ pitiless advance. But to do so, he must return to the nightmare of unspace, where his mind was broken and remade. What he discovers there will change everything.
