The Grace of Kings
Emperor Mapidere was the first to unite the island kingdoms of Dara under a single banner. But now the emperor is on his deathbed, his people are exhausted by his vast, conscriptive engineering projects and his counsellors conspire only for their own gain.
Even the gods themselves are restless.
A wily, charismatic bandit and the vengeance-sworn son of a deposed duke cross paths as they each lead their own rebellion against the emperor's brutal regime. Together, they will journey to the heart of the empire; witnessing the clash of armies, fleets of silk-draped airships, magical books and shapeshifting gods. Their unlikely friendship will drastically change the balance of power in Dara... but at what price?
The Grace of Kings is the first novel by Hugo-, Nebula- and World Fantasy Award-winner Ken Liu and the first in a monumental epic fantasy series.
Romana 771 – 772.
Clare Connelly: Flörtöl velem, felség?„Ezzel a férfival csak a baj van!” Freja hercegnő fejében ez a mondat fogalmazódik meg, amikor a szoknyavadász milliárdos, Santiago del Almodovár belép a palotájába. Nemcsak azért, mert a férfi az ő akarata ellenére kaszinót szeretne építeni az északi királyság fővárosában, hanem azért is, mert annyira szexi, hogy a hercegnő azonnal megkívánja. Amikor az igéző tekintetű férfi váratlanul meglepi egy csókkal, Freja képtelen ellenállni neki. Ez a hiba pedig tönkreteheti a kifogástalan hírnevét, és veszélybe sodorhatja a szívét…

Arthur Grace: Communism(s): A Cold War Album
For most people in the West, the realities of life behind the Iron Curtain have faded into caricatures of police state repression and bread lines. With the world seemingly again divided between democracies and authoritarian regimes, it is essential that we understand the reality of life in the Soviet Bloc. American photojournalist Arthur Grace (born 1947) was uniquely placed to provide that context.
During the 1970s and 1980s Grace traveled extensively behind the Iron Curtain, working primarily for news magazines. One of only a small corps of Western photographers with ongoing access, he was able to delve into the most ordinary corners of people's daily lives, while also covering significant events. Many of the photographs in this remarkable book are effectively psychological portraits that leave the viewer with a sense of the gamut of emotions in that era.
Illustrated with over 120 black-and-white images-nearly all previously unpublished-Communism(s) gives an unprecedented glimpse behind the veil of a not-so-distant time filled with harsh realities unseen by nearly all but those that lived through it. Shot in the USSR, Poland, Romania, Yugoslavia and the German Democratic Republic, here are portraits of factory workers, farmers, churchgoers, vacationers and loitering teens juxtaposed with the GDR's imposing Social Realist-designed apartment blocks, annual May Day Parades, Poland's Solidarity movement (and the subsequent imposition of martial law) and the vastness of Moscow's Red Square.

Lacná kniha Výjimečný případ Evropa
Anglická socioložka náboženství se zaměřuje na náboženskou situaci Evropy, a to v celosvětovém kontextu. Je zjevné, že praktické ztotožnění modernizace a sekularizace, které se v Evropě považuje za samozřejmé a předpokládá se i v ostatních částech světa, je naopak čímsi svébytným, co Evropu činí výjimečným případem. Davieová zkoumá souvislosti mezi modernizací a sekularizací (respektive její nepřítomností) v Severní i Jižní Americe, v Africe a v Asii s cílem vysvětlit, zač přesně Evropa své výjimečnosti vděčí a jak bychom se jí měli snažit porozumět.

The Grace Year
The resistance starts here...
No one speaks of the grace year.
It's forbidden.
We're told we have the power to lure grown men from their beds, make boys lose their minds, and drive the wives mad with jealousy. That's why we're banished for our sixteenth year, to release our magic into the wild before we're allowed to return to civilization.
But I don't feel powerful.
I don't feel magical.
Tierney James lives in an isolated village where girls are banished at sixteen to the northern forest to brave the wilderness - and each other - for a year. They must rid themselves of their dangerous magic before returning purified and ready to marry - if they're lucky.
It is forbidden to speak of the grace year, but even so every girl knows that the coming year will change them - if they survive it...
The Grace Year is The Handmaid's Tale meets Lord of the Flies - a page-turning feminist dystopia about a young woman trapped in an oppressive society, fighting to take control of her own life.

Seznam brouků (Coleoptera) České republiky a Slovenska
Nový seznam brouků České republiky vychází téměř po 25 letech. Vyšší taxonomie je zpracována podle v nedávné době vydávaného palearktického katalogu brouků (Löbl & Smetana 20032013) a s přihlédnutím k dalším recentním publikacím, díky kterým došlo k řadě významných změn proti předchozímu katalogu. Pro rozšíření byly použity faunistické rekordy, specializované katalogy nebo regionální publikace zpracované řadou profesionálních i amatérských entomologů-coleopterologů. Využity byly ještě publikace z roku 2016. Při konečné přípravě knihy byla řada čeledí konzultována s předními odborníky na danou skupinu. Tato publikace jistě najde uplatnění nejen u entomologů-coleopterologů, a to jak profesionálních tak i amatérských, ale i u lesníků, zemědělců, učitelů a všech zájemců o přírodu. Podává souhrnný přehled o současném stavu poznání brouků v České republice a na Slovensku. Díky dvojjazyčnosti (český a anglický jazyk) může být užitečná i pro entomology ve středoevropském regionu.
