Lacná kniha Ptačí sněm / The parliament of Fowls (-70%)
Díky své delikátní formě a vytříbenému obsahu, spojujícímu ty nejlepší prvky středověké básnické tradice, si Ptačí sněm anglického básníka Geoffreyho Chaucera (asi 1343–1400) zajistil nejen výsadní postavení v rámci autorova rozsáhlého díla, ale rovněž platí za klenot středověkého literárního kánonu. Skladba komorní délky zachycuje básníka neznalého lásky, jenž po dni stráveném nad latinskými spisy usíná neklidným spánkem. Ve snu se mu zjevuje římský vojevůdce Scipio Africanus, který se mu stává průvodcem a zavádí jej do alegorické zahrady, v níž „plodný květen vládne celý věk“ a kde básník poprvé dostává příležitost poznat (byť jen jako svědek) lásku a její rituály zblízka.
Ptačí sněm je ukázkou tzv. snového vidění, jednoho z nejoblíbenějších literárních žánrů vrcholného a pozdního středověku. O zdomácnění této formy se v anglickém prostředí nemalou měrou zasloužil právě Geoffrey Chaucer, a to jak překladem, tak vlastní tvorbou. Přestože datace i účel Ptačího sněmu jsou do značné míry spekulativní, mnohými historiky bývá báseň kladena do přímé souvislosti s námluvami mladého anglického krále Richarda II. a Annou Českou, dcerou římského císaře Karla IV., jíž vzdal Chaucer hold hned v několika svých skladbách. Zároveň se jedná o jeden z nejranějších dokladů spojení kultu svatého Valentýna s milostnou tematikou. Českému čtenáři se tímto vydáním dostává překlad básně do rukou poprvé, doplněný předmluvou nastiňující hlavní rysy žánru středověké snové poezie a Chaucerových variací na její témata a ukázkami z několika významných děl, jež s Ptačím sněmem úzce souvisejí.

Monkees, The - More Of The Monkees 2LP
KDO: Americká rocková kapela Monkees vznikla v roce 1965 v Los Angeles. Byla sformována speciálně pro stejnojmennou televizní sérii zachycující příběh imaginární skupiny, která chce být jako Beatles. Podle členů souboru nebyli Monkees nikdy plnohodnoutnou kapelou: „Monkees byli skutečnou skupinou asi stejně, jako byl Leonard Nimoy vulkánec.“ Přesto se Monkees stali jedním z nejúspěšnějších souborů hudební historie. Celosvětově prodali 75 milionů desek a nahráli řadu hitů jako Last Train To Clarksville, Pleasant Valley Sunday nebo I’m Believer.

The Law of Innocence
Heading home after winning his latest case, defense attorney Mickey Haller - The Lincoln Lawyer - is pulled over by the police. They open the trunk of his car to find the body of a former client.
Haller knows the law inside out. He will be charged with murder. He will have to build his case from behind bars. And the trial will be the trial of his life.
Because Mickey Haller will defend himself in court.
With watertight evidence stacked against him, Haller will need every trick in the book to prove he was framed.
But a not-guilty verdict isn't enough. In order to truly walk free, Haller knows he must find the real killer - that is the law of innocence...
'Pick up this gripping book at your peril, especially if you have other things to do like working or sleeping.' Express
'The so-called Lincoln Lawyer . . . turns in another dazzling courtroom performance' New York Times Book Review"
The law of innocence is unwritten. It will not be found in a leather-bound code book. It will never be argued in a courtroom. In nature, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the law of innocence, for every man not guilty of a crime there is a man out there who is. And to prove true innocence the guilty man must be found and exposed to the world."

Electronic - Get The Message: The Best Of 2CD
KDO: V projektu Electronic se sešli dva významní britští hudebníci – zpěvák a kytarista Bernard Sumner z New Order a kytarista Johnny Marr z The Smiths. Na hudbě manchesterské skupiny se zčásti podíleli také Neil Tennant a Chris Lowe z Pet Shop Boys nebo Karl Bartos z Kraftwerk. Superskupina se zrodila v roce 1988, kdy frustrovaný Sumner hodlal natočit sólovou desku, ale během připrav pochopil, že ji nechce dělat sám. Oslovil Marra, se kterým už spolupracoval v minulosti. Debutový singl Getting Away With It proklouzl do americké Top 40 a Electronic následně předskakovali slavným Depeche Mode na jejich severoamerickém turné v roce 1990. Vydali tři studiová alba.
CO: Reedice. Sbírka nejdůležitějších momentů superskupiny, ve které v devadesátých letech působily ikony světové populární hudby, vyšla původně v roce 2006. Zájemci na desce najdou singly a jejich B strany i další nahrávky Electronic. K dispozici na 2CD a vůbec poprvé také na vinylu.
