Ember Shadows and the Fates of Mount Never
In a land trapped by fate, only courage can re-write the future.
In the magical village of Everspring, everyone receives a fate card before their twelfth birthday, sent down from the mysterious Mount Never. It tells them their purpose, their profession and how old they'll be when they die.
Nearly 12-year-old Ember Shadows has always believed she is destined for great things. But when her fate card arrives, it's blank. What does that mean? Then, worse still, her sister's card decrees she will die before her next birthday. No way is Ember's going to let that happen.
Determined to challenge what - or who - is responsible for these cards, Ember sets off up the mountain, a place no one is allowed to go. She encounters forbidden realms full of magic, trickery and curious creatures. In a thrilling race through a magical landscape, Ember Shadows must uncover the secret behind the fate cards in order to save her sister ...
But will Ember like what she finds at the top of the mountain?
With hints of Alice in Wonderland, shades of The Phantom Tollbooth and echoes of Pixar's Inside Out, this a thrilling, warm-hearted race through magical realms, a classic magical adventure, beautifully illustrated throughout.
Daughter of the Salt King
A girl of the desert and a jinni born long ago by the sea, both enslaved to the Salt King—but with this capricious magic, only one can be set free.
As a daughter of the Salt King, Emel ought to be among the most powerful women in the desert. Instead, she and her sisters have less freedom than even her father's slaves ... for the Salt King uses his own daughters to seduce visiting noblemen into becoming powerful allies by marriage.
Escape from her father’s court seems impossible, and Emel dreams of a life where she can choose her fate. When members of a secret rebellion attack, Emel stumbles upon an alluring escape route: her father’s best-kept secret—a wish-granting jinni, Saalim.
But in the land of the Salt King, wishes are never what they seem. Saalim’s magic is volatile. Emel could lose everything with a wish for her freedom as the rebellion intensifies around her. She soon finds herself playing a dangerous game that pits dreams against responsibility and love against the promise of freedom. As she finds herself drawn to the jinni for more than his magic, captivated by both him and the world he shows her outside her desert village, she has to decide if freedom is worth the loss of her family, her home and Saalim, the only man she’s ever loved.

Queen Charlotte: Before the Bridgertons came the love story that changed the ton...
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn and television pioneer Shonda Rhimes comes a powerful and romantic novel of Bridgerton's Queen Charlotte and King George III's great love story and how it sparked a societal shift, inspired by the original series Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, created by Shondaland for Netflix.
In 1761, on a sunny day in September, a King and Queen met for the very first time. They were married within hours.
Born a German Princess, Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz was beautiful, headstrong, and fiercely intelligent… not precisely the attributes the British Court had been seeking in a spouse for the young King George III. But her fire and independence were exactly what she needed, because George had secrets… secrets with the potential to shake the very foundations of the monarchy.
Thrust into her new role as a royal, Charlotte must learn to navigate the intricate politics of the court… all the while guarding her heart, because she is falling in love with the King, even as he pushes her away. Above all she must learn to rule, and to understand that she has been given the power to remake society. She must fight—for herself, for her husband, and for all her new subjects who look to her for guidance and grace. For she will never be just Charlotte again. She must instead fulfill her destiny… as Queen.

Beatles, The - The Blue Album 1967 - 1970 (2023 Edition) 2CD
The Beatles bola anglická rocková skupina založená v Liverpoole v roku 1960 v zložení John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison a Ringo Starr. Sú považovaní za najvplyvnejšiu skupinu všetkých čias a boli neoddeliteľnou súčasťou rozvoja kontrakultúry 60. rokov a uznania populárnej hudby ako umeleckej formy. Ich zvuk má korene v skiffle, beate a rock'n'rolle 50. rokov a inovatívnym spôsobom zahŕňa prvky klasickej hudby a tradičného popu. Skupina tiež skúmala hudobné štýly od ľudovej a indickej hudby po psychedéliu a hard rock. Ako priekopníci v nahrávaní, písaní piesní a umeleckej prezentácii spôsobili Beatles revolúciu v mnohých aspektoch hudobného priemyslu a boli často propagovaní ako vodcovia mládežníckych a sociokultúrnych hnutí tej doby. The Beatles sú najpredávanejším hudobným počinom všetkých čias s odhadovaným predajom 600 miliónov kusov po celom svete. Sú najúspešnejším počinom v histórii americkej hitparády Billboard, držia rekord v počte albumov na prvom mieste v UK Albums Chart (15), najviac hitov na prvom mieste v americkom rebríčku Billboard Hot 100 (20 ) a najviac singlov sa predalo v Spojenom kráľovstve (21,9 milióna). Skupina získala mnoho ocenení vrátane siedmich cien Grammy, štyroch cien Brit Awards, Oscara (za najlepšiu pôvodnú skladbu pre dokumentárny film Let It Be z roku 1970) a pätnástich cien Ivora Novella. V roku 1988 ich uviedli do Rock'n'rollovej siene slávy a každý hlavný člen bol uvedený individuálne v rokoch 1994 až 2015. V rokoch 2004 a 2011 sa skupina dostala na prvé miesto rebríčka najväčších umelcov v histórii Rolling Stone. Časopis Time ich zaradil medzi 100 najdôležitejších ľudí 20. storočia.
Táto nová kompilácia predstavuje generáciám fanúšikov neuveriteľnú históriu najslávnejšej kapely v hudbe. K svojmu 50. výročiu bola kolekcia rozšírená o 9 ďalších skladieb, vrátane „Blackbird“, „Glass Onion“ a novej piesne „Now And Then“. The Last Beatles Song, „Now And Then“ dopĺňa demo nahrávku Johna Lennona vokálu a klavíra zo 70. rokov s časťami, ktoré hrali Paul McCartney, George Harrison a Ringo Starr, ako aj s novým aranžmánom pre sláčiky. Kolekcia 2CD teraz obsahuje 37 skladieb, z ktorých 6 má nové mixy na rok 2023. Brožúra obsahuje nové poznámky novinára a autora Johna Harrisa. Pre súčasných fanúšikov aj budúce generácie je nová kolekcia 1966 – 1970 radostnou oslavou nadčasového hudobného odkazu The Beatles.

Jáhen King Kong
Brooklyn, konec 60. let. Stary´ svérázny´ jáhen jednoho dne nakráčí před místního dealera, kterého ještě nedávno učil hrát baseball, a postřelí ho. Spustí tak kaskádu událostí, jež změní život nejen jim dvěma, ale celé různorodé komunitě žijící ve „špatné čtvrti“. Sociální problémy, rasismus a nepokoje jsou spíše pozadím živelného příběhu, ktery´ postupně nabírá parametry pátrání ve stylu Indiana Jonese. Americky´ klasik James McBride, jenž vychází v češtině vůbec poprvé, zde ukazuje jak mistrovské vypravěčské schopnosti, tak svou trvalou víru v lidstvo. Jáhen King Kong voní atmosférou New Yorku a jazzu, potěší milovníky gangsterek a podivínsky´ch hrdinů a je povzbudivou zprávou o tom, že láska a víra žije i v tom nejposlednějším darebákovi.
James McBride (1957) je oceňovany´ autor, hudebník a scenárista. Jeho přelomové memoáry The Color of Water, vydané v roce 1996, jsou považovány za americkou klasiku, prodaly se v milionech vy´tisků a čtou se ve školách po cely´ch Spojeny´ch státech. McBride je rodily´ Newyorčan, studoval skladbu na Oberlin Conservatory of Music v Ohiu a žurnalistiku na Kolumbijské univerzitě. V roce 2015 mu prezident Obama udělil Národní medaili za humanitní vědy za to, že „zlidšťuje složitou diskusi o rasové problematice“. Je držitelem několika čestny´ch doktorátů a v současné době působí na Newyorské univerzitě.

Én, Zlatan Ibrahimovic
"A könyvet a családomnak és a barátaimnak ajánlom, és mindenkinek, aki figyelemmel kísérte, hogyan alakul a sorsom, és kitartott mellettem jóban és rosszban.
Ajánlom azoknak a gyerekeknek, bárhol is éljenek a világon, akik kilógnak a sorból, akik úgy érzik, hogy mások, mint a többiek, és akiket tévesen ítélnek meg.
Nincsen azzal semmi baj, ha valaki más, mint a többiek.
És nincs annál fontosabb, mint, hogy higgyetek magatokban. Számomra ez volt a megoldás, bármilyen helyzetbe kerültem." (Zlatan Ibrahimovic)
