Daughter of the Moon Goddess
A captivating and romantic debut epic fantasy inspired by the legend of the Chinese moon goddess, Chang’e, in which a young woman’s quest to free her mother pits her against the most powerful immortal in the realm.
Growing up on the moon, Xingyin is accustomed to solitude, unaware that she is being hidden from the feared Celestial Emperor who exiled her mother for stealing his elixir of immortality. But when Xingyin’s magic flares and her existence is discovered, she is forced to flee her home, leaving her mother behind.
Alone, powerless, and afraid, she makes her way to the Celestial Kingdom, a land of wonder and secrets. Disguising her identity, she seizes an opportunity to learn alongside the emperor’s son, mastering archery and magic, even as passion flames between her and the prince.
To save her mother, Xingyin embarks on a perilous quest, confronting legendary creatures and vicious enemies. But when treachery looms and forbidden magic threatens the kingdom, she must challenge the ruthless Celestial Emperor for her dream—striking a dangerous bargain in which she is torn between losing all she loves or plunging the realm into chaos.
Daughter of the Moon Goddess begins an enchanting duology which weaves ancient Chinese mythology into a sweeping adventure of immortals and magic, of loss and sacrifice—where love vies with honor, dreams are fraught with betrayal, and hope emerges triumphant.

Skrotený vikomt
Aj tie najlepšie plány sa môžu pokaziť
Ewan Fairchild, vikomt Clayton, presne vie, čo chce dosiahnuť a darí sa mu v tom. Stať sa vychádzajúcou hviezdou v parlamente? Vybavené. Nájsť dámu, s ktorou by sa oženil? Vybavené. Mať stajne, ktoré mu budú závidieť všetci muži v Londýne? Vďaka arabskému plnokrvníkovi, ktorého vyhral v dražbe, je na dobrej ceste, aby si splnil aj tento sen. Nič na tom nezmení ani krásna mladá žena zo susedstva.
Pompézne plesy, večierky a soirée sú lady Theodore Ballardovej ukradnuté. Radšej sa stará o chorú matku, ale keď jej otec predá milovaného koňa, pretečie posledná kvapka. Nič They nezabráni v tom, aby ho získala späť. Dokonca ani nový majiteľ, čertovsky pekný vikomt. Nanešťastie si Thea pri pokuse navštíviť koňa zlomí nohu a musí zostať u Claytona ako nezvaný hosť, ktorý naruší jeho doteraz usporiadaný život. Medzi Claytonom a Theou to nepopierateľne iskrí, ale obaja majú priveľa tajomstiev a škandálov. Na ich záchranu bude treba viac než len trochu lásky.

The KLF
They were the bestselling singles band in the world. They had awards, credibility, commercial success and creative freedom. Then they deleted their records, erased themselves from musical history and burnt their last million pounds in a boathouse on the Isle of Jura. And they couldn't say why.
This is not just the story of The KLF. It is a book about Carl Jung, Alan Moore, Robert Anton Wilson, Ken Campbell, Dada, Situationism, Discordianism, magic, chaos, punk, rave, the alchemical symbolism of Doctor Who and the special power of the number twenty-three. Wildly unauthorised and unlike any other music biography, THE KLF is a trawl through chaos on the trail of a beautiful, accidental mythology.

V dalším díle bestsellerové norské série stojí detektiv Anton Brekke před možná největší výzvou své kariéry.
V jistém autoservisu se při běžné údržbě najdou pod kapotou starého cadillacu kosti lidské ruky a majitelka auta je současně nalezena mrtvá. Vyšetřování vraždy osamělé norské dámy a pátrání po tom, jak její osud souvisí s kostmi z auta Antona zavede do samotného Las Vegas.
Všechny stopy ukazují na to, že v hráčské metropoli v sedmdesátých letech došlo k něčemu, co je třeba utajit za každou cenu. Přestože se zdá, že vrah má na svědomí hned několik životů na obou kontinentech, největší nebezpečí na Antona pravděpodobně číhá u pokerových stolů. Odolá své hluboko zakořeněné hráčské vášni a odhalí, kdo za zločiny stojí?

This bond has grown stronger and stronger over the centuries, and some creatures have become real animal celebrities. Some of them are famous because they supported their owners in the conquest of new lands or in great battles, such as Hannibals elephants. Others went down in history as true heroes in dangerous situations, such as the pigeon Cher Ami, that carried war orders right from the battle frontline. In this book youll read the true stories of these animals, and many others. At the very end, youll find a section dedicated to animals that never existed, but that are still part of our mythology and culture.

Vianoce vo Veľkom lese
Nádherný vianočný príbeh na každý adventný deň
Škriatok Dudroš žije sám a presne tak sa mu to páči. Je ako všetci škriatkovia – drobný, rýchly a zlostný. Zo zabehnutých koľají a príprav na Vianoce ho vyruší čmeliak, ktorý sa zachytí v pavúčej sieti a prosí ho o pomoc...
Trochu ďalej vo Veľkom lese, v nore pod obrovským dubom, je atmosféra úplne iná – toto miesto je domovom veselej zajačej rodiny. Nikdy tam nie je ticho ani pokoj, zajačiky sa jašia a behajú kade-tade.
Ako sa môžu pretnúť životy takýchto odlišných stvorení? Ľahko! Po tom, ako k zajačikom poryv vetra doveje záhadnú čiapku a rukavice, sa od veveričiek dozvedia o Vianociach. Každé lesné zvieratko priloží ku skladačke ďalší kúsok, ktorý sa o tomto sviatku niekde dopočulo – na Vianoce musia ozdobiť stromček či pripraviť špeciálne jedlá pre škriatka, ktorý k nim zavíta. Malé zajačiky Nina a Kain sa už nemôžu dočkať Vianoc a záhadného škriatka, a tak sa mu vydajú naproti, do zimnej noci, no skončia v snehovej víchrici. Osud ich privedie na Dudrošovu farmu... mohol by byť práve tento ufrflaný škriatok poslom Vianoc?
Švédsky spisovateľ Ulf Stark spojil sily s oceňovanou švédskou ilustrátorkou Evou Erikssonovou a vytvorili očarujúcu knihu na adventné obdobie, ktorá chytí za srdce malých aj väčších čitateľov.
Pre deti od 5 rokov
Zo švédskeho originálu preložila Mária Bratová.
Pán Králik a nečakaný hosť
Niekedy priateľa nájdeme tam, kde by sme ho vôbec nečakali.
Pán Králik mal radosť, keď bol každý kvet či lístok na svojom mieste. Jedného dňa sa prechádzal po lese a našiel čosi zvláštne. Podobalo sa to síce na kameň, ale jeho povrch bol trochu iný... To veru nebol kameň! Neznámy predmet si vložil od vrecka a odniesol so sebou do svojho úhľadného a čistého domčeka. Z čudesného kameňa sa zrazu vyliahlo drobné káčatko, ktoré mu prevrátilo svet naruby.
Poriadkumilovný králik však vôbec netúžil po nezbednom káčatku v svojom milovanom domčeku. Preto sa rozhodne, že mu nájde jeho skutočnú mamičku.
Utešený príbeh o priateľstve zoznámi deti s pánom Králikom, ktorý je presvedčený o tom, že má v svojej dokonalej nore všetko. Až mu jedno milé stvorenie ukáže, čo mu doma a v živote chýbalo.
Red, White & Royal Blue
What happens when America's First Son falls in love with the Prince of Wales?
Alex Claremont-Diaz is handsome, charismatic, a genius - pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House ever since his mother first became President of the United States. There's only one problem. When the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an altercation between Alex and Prince Henry, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse.
Heads of family and state devise a plan for damage control: stage a truce. But what begins as a fake, Instagrammable friendship grows deeper, and more dangerous, than either Alex or Henry could have imagined. Soon they are hurtling into a secret romance that could derail the presidential campaign and upend two nations.
'Red, White & Royal Blue is outrageously fun. It is romantic, sexy, witty, and thrilling. I loved every second.' - Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Daisy Jones & The Six
Arjun Roy and the Cavern Lord
About the book:
What if a few people's imagination which you don't believe in, comes true to mess your life? I, Arjun Roy, was living a peaceful middle class life in Bangalore, dancing and playing guitar studying in class seven. But one incident changed my whole life and put me in a war against racism. How did I make it out? This book is all about how it all began. Now this guy with an experience of six days has to defeat a commander - in - chief.About the author:
Mohit L. Kumar, never heard of this name? That's because this book is his first release.Being a thirteen years old student even now, he wasn't quite confident about this series. Hearing stories about Hindu Mythology from his grandpa and grandma he had a keen interest in this topic which drove him into making this series. Still continuing his schooling in Saint Lawrence, he comes from a town in Odisha called Angul. He read books by different authors and studied their take on Hindu Mythology and finally he presents his version. He has other hobbies like dancing and playing guitar.
"At least once, you all might have wondered, what if we were connected to someone great back from the ancient times? If yes, then this book will surely make you assured of your thoughts. Arjun Roy was fun writing. Those who know me will easily find him a penned down version of me. Here goes my vision to you. I hope you enjoy the most out of it. Waiting for me to note my achievements? Sorry, I don't have anything to present here." ~ Mohit
