Assassin's Creed: Last Descendants: A kán sírja
Owen és barátai vesztettek. Pedig amikor a lehetetlennel dacolva rábukkantak egy ősi és nagy hatalmú relikvia, a legendás Édenszigony egy darabjára, úgy tűnt, semmi sem állíthatja meg őket. Az Édendarab után rajtuk kívül két rivális szervezet, az Orgyilkos Testvériség és a Templomos Rend is kutatott, ám mielőtt még bármelyikük rátehette volna a kezét, egy ismeretlen harmadik fél szerezte meg. A tizenévesek csapata menthetetlenül szétesett: Owen és barátja, Javier az orgyilkosok oldalára állt, míg a többiek a templomosokkal tartottak. Az Édenszigony maradék két darabja még mindig felfedezésre vár, és mindkét titkos társaság kész arra, hogy elmenjen a végsőkig. A következő darabot jó eséllyel a mongol hadúrral, Batu kán unokájával, Möngke kánnal együtt temették el, akinek a sírját sohasem találták meg. A két ellentétes oldalon álló fiataloknak vissza kell térniük az Animusba, hogy alámerüljenek a háború tépázta mongol Kína szimulációjába és az idővel versenyt futva felkutassák és biztonságba helyezzék a következő Édendarabot, még mielőtt az ellenség birtokába kerülne.

The Bronze Horseman
A magnificent epic of love, war and Russia from the international bestselling author of TULLY and ROAD TO PARADISE
Leningrad 1941: the white nights of summer illuminate a city of fallen grandeur whose palaces and avenues speak of a different age, when Leningrad was known as St Petersburg.
Two sisters, Tatiana and Dasha, share the same bed, living in one room with their brother and parents.
The routine of their hard impoverished life is shattered on 22 June 1941 when Hitler invades Russia. For the Metanov family, for Leningrad and particularly for Tatiana, life will never be the same again. On that fateful day, Tatiana meets a brash young man named Alexander.
The family suffers as Hitler's army advances on Leningrad, and the Russian winter closes in. With bombs falling and the city under siege, Tatiana and Alexander are drawn inexorably to each other, but theirs is a love that could tear Tatiana's family apart, and at its heart lies a secret that could mean death to anyone who hears it.
Confronted on the one hand by Hitler's vast war machine, and on the other by a Soviet system determined to crush the human spirit, Tatiana and Alexander are pitted against the very tide of history, at a turning point in the century that made the modern world.
O poklad Ciboly
Brány otevřely cestu k tisíci nových světů a vypukla kolonizační horečka. Z domovských planet lidstva sem proudí osadníci, kteří hledají nový život. Ilus, první lidská kolonie v tomto rozlehlém pohraničí, se rodí z krve a ohně.
Nezávislí osadníci stojí proti drtivé síle kolonizační lodi mocné korporace, které mohou čelit jedině odhodláním, odvahou a dovednostmi, získanými v dlouhé válce doma.
James Holden a posádka jeho malé lodi jsou vysláni na planetu, která se ocitá na pokraji válečného konfiktu, aby tam zajistili mír a do zmatku vnesli řád. Ale čím hlouběji Holden proniká do situace, tím více sílí jeho přesvědčení, že jeho mise je předem odsouzena k neúspěchu.
Našeptávání mrtvého muže mu navíc připomíná, že obrovská galaktická civilizace, jíž tyto světy patřívaly, zanikla. A že ji něco zničilo.

Total Commander
Programy, hry, dokumenty, obrázky, zkrátka veškerá data se v počítači nacházejí ve formě souborů, s nimiž chtě nechtě musíme pracovat při každém zapnutí počítače. Jen si vzpomeňte, jak často potřebujete spustit nějaký program, zobrazit text nebo tabulku, zkopírovat z CD obrázky atd.
Tyto činnosti můžeme provádět různými způsoby. Nejrychlejší a nejpohodlnější je použít tzv. správce souborů (anglicky file manager), tedy program, který je nejlepším prostředkem pro snadnou manipulaci s adresáři a složkami a je na práci se soubory specializován. V prostředí operačního systému Windows je jedním z nejlepších správců souborů program Total Commander.
Co vše můžeme díky Total Commanderu dělat:
vyvářet a označovat adresáře (složky)
kopírovat, přejmenovávat, přesunovat, prohlížet a vymazávat soubory
nastavovat atributy souborů dle svých potřeb
využívat možností příkazového řádku
vyhledávat podle různých kritérií
hromadně přejmenovávat soubory i složky
stahovat a nahrávat soubory pomocí FTP atd.
Publikaci doplňují dva velice užitečné dodatky. Prvním
je seznam klávesových zkratek a druhým slovníček odborných termínů použitých v knize. Tato kniha pokrývá všechny funkce, které v Total Commanderu najdete. Možná i proto Christian Ghisler (autor Total Commanderu), po přečtení a zhodnocení kvality naší knihy, svolil k používání označení oficiální manuál.

Homicide House
It’s been twelve years since we’ve heard of Mr. Evan Pinkerton, the little, timid man who seems to attract trouble, and continually harasses Inspector Bull of Scotland Yard. They’re back now in Homicide House. The story is laid in postwar London, and Mr. Pinkerton is living at No. 4 Godolphin Square. Despite the fact that he owns the apartment house, he shares meagre quarters on the top floor with the chef. Years of living with the penny-pinching Mrs. Pinkerton (now fortunately deceased) have accustomed him to discomfort, and Mr. Pinkerton is quite happy living where he is.
One day a young American comes swinging along the Square. He attracts Mr. Pinkerton’s attention when he stops in front of No. 22, directly across from No. 4, and now a shell of a house with only a stairway leading nowhere. The American is so obviously distressed at the sight of the bombed-out house, that Mr. Pinkerton breaks a habit of longstanding and speaks to him. When the stranger tells him he is looking for a girl whom he met six years before in an air-raid shelter, and that he knows only that she lived at No. 22 Godolphin Square, Mr. Pinkerton comforts him by revealing that she is living quite safely at the very house in which he himself has rooms.
It takes only one more innocent question to start in motion a train of singularly unpleasant events, and the stranger and Mr. Pinkerton find themselves in the midst of violence and murder.

Leonard Cohen
V úvodu ke své knize, v originále nazvané podle jedné z Cohenových neslavnějších písní A Broken Hallelujah, Liel Leibovitz upozorňuje, že se ve skutečnosti nejedná o životopis, jako spíše o filosofické zamyšlení nad Cohenovým dílem. Základní etapy umělcova života jsou samozřejmě načrtnuty, jádrem knihy je však něco jiného. Autor pátrá po oné „nadčasovosti“ a hluboké pravdivosti, díky nimž má hudebník, spisovatel, filosof a básník L. Cohen nejširšímu publiku stále co říci, a snaží se zodpovědět některé otázky, například: Čím to, že je Leonard Cohen už téměř šedesát let uznávaný a obdivovaný? Čím to, že když vejde na pódium, nabitý sál ztichne a všichni čekají se zatajeným dechem? V konfrontaci s dobou se Leibovitz zabývá i dílem některých zpěváků a rockových skupin, které se v Cohenově „éře“ spolupodílely na utváření měřítek, s nimiž se Cohen musel vyrovnávat a kterým ne vždy vyhovoval. Na rozdíl od nich se však Cohenovi podařilo udržet se na vrcholu: díky tomu, že zůstal věrný svému jedinečnému prorockému vnímání, vnímání, které je pro miliony lidí na celém světě hluboce pravdivé, a díky obrovskému charismatu, které dokázalo kdysi, v roce 1970, zkrotit zdivočelý statisícový dav na hudebním festivalu na ostrově Wight.

Places and Names
An astonishing account of the nature of war from acclaimed novelist and decorated former US marine Elliot Ackerman
In a refugee camp in southern Turkey, Elliot Ackerman sits across the table from Abu Hassar, who fought for Al Qaeda in Iraq and has murky connections to the Islamic State. At first, Ackerman pretends to have been a journalist during the Iraq War, but after he establishes a rapport with Abu Hassar, he reveals that in fact he was a Marine. The two men then compare their fighting experiences in the Middle East, discovering they had shadowed each other for some time: a realisation that brings them to a strange kind of intimacy.
Elliot Ackerman's extraordinary memoir explores the events that led him to come to this refugee camp and what, unable to forget his time in battle, he hoped to find there. Moving between his recent time on the ground as a journalist in Syria and his Marine deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, he creates a work of astonishing atmospheric pressure, one which blends the American experience with the perspectives and stories of the Arab world, and draws a line between them.
At once an intensely personal book about the terrible lure of combat and a brilliant meditation on the meaning of the past two decades of strife for the region and the world, Places and Names bids to take its place among our greatest books about modern war.
Errant
What dark stories hide behind the smiles?
Bethal dreams of errants, those mythical travellers who defend the helpless and protect against evil. Even though the stories are for children, and a girl on the cusp of womanhood should have her mind on other things, they loom large in Bethal’s mind. Maybe it’s because she’s never been beyond the community, never experienced life beyond its boundaries.
But soon, it will be her time to leave. Everyone knows this, yet nobody talks of it. Just as nobody says what happens when girls of Bethal’s age leave, or why they are never spoken of again.
If ever Bethal needed help, if ever was the moment for an errant to appear, that time is now.
A novella in the Dominions series, Errant explores the world beyond the Domes and the districts, and the evil that exists in even the most peaceful of settings.

Caging Skies
This extraordinary novel is seen through the eyes of Johannes, an avid member of the Hitler Youth in the 1940s. After he is severely injured in a raid, he discovers his parents are hiding a Jewish girl called Elsa behind a false wall in their large house in Vienna.
His initial horror turns to interest, then love and obsession. After the disappearance of his parents, Johannes finds he is the only one aware of Elsa's existence in the house, the only one responsible for her survival. Both manipulating and manipulated, Johannes dreads the end of the war: with it will come the prospect of losing Elsa and their relationship, which ranges through passion and obsession, dependence and indifference, love and hate.
This gripping, masterful work examines truth and lies at both political and personal levels, laying bare the darkest corners of the human soul.
The Idiot King
Johanna, Roald, Nellie and Loesie have come to Florisheim finding many of their kinsmen there. The survivors from the burning of Saardam who have come here are the nobles who were never great supporters the old king, and it is likely that they won’t support his son either, even if he was normal. They support his marriage to Johanna even less and Johanna’s position as the new king’s wife would be improved immensely if she produced an heir, but so far that’s not happening.
Florisheim is alive with evil magic, and that magic is starting to affect the Saarlanders who are unused to it. They suffer apparitions of ghosts, people driven to injure themselves, or taken prisoner to work in a mysterious hole in the ground.
Johanna knows that they have to get out of that evil place, but where can they go when the violence covers the entire known world?
