The War of the Worlds
No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinised and studied. Yet across the gulf of space, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic regarded this earth with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us.
Then, late one night, in the middle of the English countryside, they landed.
Return of the Wizard King The Wizard King Trilogy 1
Get in. Get out. Get paid. That was the plan. Instead, these reluctant mercenaries uncover some hidden agendas and ancient power struggles centuries in the making. The last wizard king seeks a return to Tralodren after nearly eight centuries of exile. But doing so requires the manipulation of a band of mercenaries oblivious to his goals. The gladiator sold his soul for revenge. The knight's a bigot. The dwarf only cares about regaining his honor. Even the wizardess seems too bookish for anyone's good. But they've all been hired by a blind seer and his assistant to retrieve some forgotten knowledge long hidden away in a jungle-strangled ruin. Betrayal, madness, adventure, and magic fill this first volume of the Wizard King Trilogy, introducing readers to a world rich in history, faith, and tales of adventure--of which this story is but one of many. . . . this promising series opener will leave many readers curious to know what comes next.--Publishers Weekly Here be roaring monsters to be fought, characters who come vividly to life, and fell magic . . .

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.

The Fall of Gondolin
Painstakingly restored from Tolkien's manuscripts and presented for the first time as a standalone work, the epic tale of The Fall of Gondolin will reunite fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings with Elves and Men, Balrogs, Dragons and Orcs and the rich landscape and creatures unique to Tolkien's Middle-earth.
In the Tale of The Fall of Gondolin are two of the greatest powers in the world. There is Morgoth of the uttermost evil, unseen in this story but ruling over a vast military power from his fortress of Angband. Deeply opposed to Morgoth is Ulmo, second in might only to Manwe, chief of the Valar.
Central to this enmity of the gods is the city of Gondolin, beautiful but undiscoverable. It was built and peopled by Noldorin Elves who, when they dwelt in Valinor, the land of the gods, rebelled against their rule and fled to Middle-earth. Turgon King of Gondolin is hated and feared above all his enemies by Morgoth, who seeks in vain to discover the marvellously hidden city, while the gods in Valinor in heated debate largely refuse to intervene in support of Ulmo's desires and designs.
Into this world comes Tuor, cousin of Turin, the instrument of Ulmo's designs. Guided unseen by him Tuor sets out from the land of his birth on the fearful journey to Gondolin, and in one of the most arresting moments in the history of Middle-earth the sea-god himself appears to him, rising out of the ocean in the midst of a storm. In Gondolin he becomes great; he is wedded to Idril, Turgon's daughter, and their son is Earendel, whose birth and profound importance in days to come is foreseen by Ulmo.
At last comes the terrible ending. Morgoth learns through an act of supreme treachery all that he needs to mount a devastating attack on the city, with Balrogs and dragons and numberless Orcs. After a minutely observed account of the fall of Gondolin, the tale ends with the escape of Tuor and Idril, with the child Earendel, looking back from a cleft in the mountains as they flee southward, at the blazing wreckage of their city. They were journeying into a new story, the Tale of Earendel, which Tolkien never wrote, but which is sketched out in this book from other sources.
Following his presentation of Beren and Luthien Christopher Tolkien has used the same 'history in sequence' mode in the writing of this edition of The Fall of Gondolin. In the words of J.R.R. Tolkien, it was 'the first real story of this imaginary world' and, together with Beren and Luthien and The Children of Hurin, he regarded it as one of the three 'Great Tales' of the Elder Days.

Launching a new trilogy in the Shades of Magic universe, an enchanting and thrilling epic fantasy from the international sensation, V. E. Schwab, perfect for fans of Samantha Shannon, Kerri Maniscalco, Leigh Bardugo and R.
F. Kuang. Seven years have passed since the doors between the worlds were sealed.
Seven years since Kell, Lila and Holland stood against Osaron, a desperate battle that saved the worlds of Red, Grey and White London. Seven years since Kell's magic was shattered, and Holland lost his life. Now Rhy Maresh rules Red London with his new family - his queen, Nadiya, their daughter Ren, and his consort, Alucard.
But his city boils with conspiracy and rebellion, fuelled by rumours he is causing magic to fade from the word. Now Kosika, a child Antari, sits on the throne of White London. The new queen leads her people in new rituals of sacrifice and blood in devotion to the altar of Holland Vosijk, summoning vast power she may not be able to control.
Now Lila and Kell, living free on the waves, are charged by the captain of the Floating Market to retrieve an immensely powerful artefact, stolen by secretive forces. Now Tes, a young woman with a knack for fixing broken things, is thrust into the affairs of Antari and kings, traitors and thieves. And only her unique powers can weave the threads of power together.
A triumphant return to the worlds of The Shades of Magic, The Fragile Threads of Power continues the stories of fan-favourite characters Kell, Lila, Rhy and Alucard, and introduces a new generation of magic, shadows and embers in the dark.
The Raven King - A Hollókirály
Gansey már évek óta egy eltűnt király nyomait kutatja, és szép lassan a barátait is bevonja a küldetésbe: Ronant, aki álmokat rabol meg; Adamet, aki elérte, hogy más rendelkezzen az élete fölött; Noah-t, akinek már nincs is igazi élete; és Blue-t, aki szerelmes Gansey-be... miközben jól tudja, arra rendeltetett, hogy megölje a szerelmét.
A végjáték megkezdődött. Az álmok és a rémálmok egybefolynak. Szerelem és veszteség elválaszthatatlanná válnak. És a keresés már nem egy konkrét útvonalra szorítkozik.
A Kirkus Reviews ezt írta a Hollófiúk-sorozat előző darabjáról (Kék liliom): „Ez a párját ritkító sorozat várhatóan viharos végkifejlettel zárul.” Nos, a vihar megérkezett a virginiai Henriettába a halál, a vágyakozás, a megvilágosodás és egy brutális igazság kíséretében. A Hollókirállyal Maggie Stiefvater felteszi a koronát remekművére.
A legvonzóbb, legérzelmesebb, legelbűvölőbb mágikus világ, amit írói fantázia teremthet.

Ztracená vláda věcí tvých se k tobě navrátí/ The rule over your affairs once lost will return to you
Kniha sleduje vzájemné vztahy mezi architekturou a politikou v období rekonstrukce demokratické republiky po roce 1989, která zároveň musela reagovat na nové lokální i globální okolnosti: rozdělení Československa, vstup do Evropské unie, nové územně správní členění ČR či politiku liberální ekonomiky. Sestává z úvodní stati a 13 studií doprovázených rozhovory s vybranými aktéry tohoto období. Sleduje podrobně ve vztahu k architektuře a urbanismu témata transformace hranic a vnitřního členění země po roce 1989, sídel státní moci (Pražský hrad, parlament, vláda, soudy), vlivu EU na rozvoj obcí (dotační programy, titul evropské město kultury), bytové výstavby z hlediska státu, municipalit (a v nich sídlících strategických soukromých firem) i občanských a anarchistických aktivit. Vedle toho si všímá role městských architektů, architektonických soutěží a organizací hájících ve veřejném prostoru zájmy profese. Po vizuální stránce texty doplňují nejen fotografie a vizualizace vážící se k jednotlivým stavbám, projektům a událostem tohoto období, nýbrž též mapy a grafy, snažící se téma celkově uchopit v datech. Grafika Tereza Hejmová a Kristýna Žáčková. Kniha vychází v česko-anglické verzi za podpory Ministerstva kultury České republiky v rámci Programu aplikovaného výzkumu a vývoje národní a kulturní identity (NAKI II).
