Lacná kniha The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (-90%)
For the first time, an edition of Lewis's classic fantasy fiction packaged specifically for adults. Complementing the look of the author's non-fiction books, and anticipating the forthcoming Narnia feature films, this edition contains an exclusive "P.S." section about the history of the book, plus a sample chapter from its sequel. In an epic continuation of the saga, Edmund and Lucy and their irksome cousin Eustace are returned to Narnia as their friend Caspian is about to chart a sea voyage to the end of the world. As their journey takes them into uncharted waters, the young heroes learn that pirates, dragons and monsters are not only real but very, very dangerous. On 9 December 2005, Andrew (Shrek) Adamson's live-action film adaptation of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe will be released by Disney, and it is already being hailed as the biggest film franchise of all time, guaranteed to appeal to adults and children across the globe. The second film is already in development. Sporting breathtaking new photographic covers, these new adult editions of the seven Chronicles of Narnia now give everyone an opportunity to experience the adventures in their original form. Re-live your childhood fantasies or discover for the first time what everyone will be talking about by Christmas and savour some of the best-loved stories ever written.

Clarissa, or the History of A Young Lady
Pressured by her unscrupulous family to marry a wealthy man she detests, the young Clarissa Harlowe is tricked into fleeing with the witty and debonair Robert Lovelace and places herself under his protection. Lovelace, however, proves himself to be an untrustworthy rake whose vague promises of marriage are accompanied by unwelcome and increasingly brutal sexual advances. And yet, Clarissa finds his charm alluring, her scrupulous sense of virtue tinged with unconfessed desire. Told through a complex series of interweaving letters, Clarissa is a richly ambiguous study of a fatally attracted couple and a work of astonishing power and immediacy. A huge success when it first appeared in 1747, and translated into French and German, it remains one of the greatest of all European novels.

Kleopatra
V portrétu historika Michaela Granta se nabízí živý obraz mimořádné ženy. Obraz, který nevychází jen z mýtů a legend, ale především z dokumentů, historických záznamů a vědeckého bádání. Představuje se tu milenka velkých mužů, ale také žena, která rozhodovala o budoucnosti své země a která se tuto zemi snažila zachránit. Vzdělaná panovnice a chytrá politička, toužící navrátit Egyptu jeho zašlou slávu. Marně. Kleopatra bývá vnímána zejména jako rozmařilá královna, která chtěla ovládnout velké muže. Ale historik Grant ji ukazuje jako bytost živou, jako královnu z řecké dynastie, která se jako první ze všech vládců naučila řeč lidu, jemuž panovala. Jako političku, které šlo vždy především o budoucnost Egypta, o jeho záchranu před římskou nadvládou. A jako nekompromisní vládkyni, která uměla krutě potlačit své nepřátele.

Manhattan is my Beat
Jeffrey Deaver knows how to hook readers and keep them guessing with suspenseful, twisty plots. This early Deaver effort, originally published in 1988, will not disappoint fans dazzled by his subsequent, high-profile Lincoln Rhyme series (The Bone Collector, The Coffin Dancer, The Empty Chair.) Manhattan Is My Beat takes its name from the (invented) 1947 film noir watched obsessively by murder victim Robert Kelly. Our heroine, Rune, (a punk with a heart of gold) works for Washington Square Video. On a routine pickup to retrieve Manhattan Is My Beat, she discovers Kelly just shot dead, the target of a professional hit. Rune and a woman jogger glimpse the presumed killer as he speeds off in a green car. While cops drag their heels in solving the mystery, Rune takes matters into her own hands, convinced that the motive for the murder is a missing suitcase stuffed with one million dollars--the subject, not coincidentally, of the film that Kelly and Rune both admired. An avid fan of fantasy novels and prone to see life through the prism of magic and quests, Rune takes up the challenge of finding the lost money and catching Kelly&aposs killers. But the formidable hit team is intent upon destroying both possible witnesses to the murder, and their nimble crosses and double-crosses--some of which the reader sees, some of which are revealed at the end--make for fun reading. Plotting moves briskly in this novel, except for a slowdown in the story--Rune&aposs ambiguous romance with downtown poseur Richard has little to do with catching killers. The conclusion, while neatly wrapped, is marred by the sudden appearance of a crucial detail that Deaver produces like a fancy dish under the waiter&aposs silver dome. But the gimmick to offset the conclusion&aposs predictability feels like a cheat rather than a revelation. All in all, however, the novel is excellent mind candy, a thrilling romp lead by an agile, street-smart heroine. i Deaver writes with clarity, compassion, and intelligence, and with a decidedly human and contemporary slant -- -- Publishers Weekly /i

Maurice and Maralyn
What begins as an eccentric English love story turns into one of the most dramatic adventures ever recorded...
Maurice and Maralyn couldn't be more different. He is as cautious and awkward as she is charismatic and forceful. It seems an unlikely romance, but it works.
Bored of 1970s suburban life, Maralyn has an idea: sell the house, build a boat, leave England — and its oil crisis, industrial strikes and inflation — forever. It is hard work, turning dreams into reality, but finally they set sail for New Zealand. Then, halfway there, their beloved boat is struck by a whale and the pair are cast adrift in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
On their tiny raft, their love is put to the test. When Maurice begins to withdraw into himself, it falls upon Maralyn to keep them both alive. Filled with danger, spirit, and tenderness, this is a book about human connection and the human condition; about how we survive — not just at sea, but in life.

The Guest
Summer is coming to a close on Long Island, and Alex is no longer welcome.
A misstep at a dinner party, and the older man she's been staying with dismisses her with a ride to the train station and a ticket back to the city.
With few resources and a waterlogged phone, but gifted with an ability to navigate the desires of others, Alex stays on Long Island and drifts like a ghost through the hedged lanes, gated driveways and sun-blasted dunes of a rarified world that is, at first, closed to her. Propelled by desperation and a mutable sense of morality, she spends the week leading up to the end of the holidays moving from one place to the next, a cipher leaving destruction in her wake.

Anthony Spencer je sebestředný bezcitný boháč, pyšný na své „úspěchy“ v práci, kde se ho všichni bojí, i v rodině, kterou chladnokrevně rozvrátil. Po úrazu hlavy se octne v kómatu na JIP. Jeho tělo leží bez hnutí obklopeno přístroji, jeho mysl se však probouzí v krajině, která zrcadlí Tonyho dosavadní život – zarostlá a nehostinná, opuštěná. Až na toho, který se rozhodl Tonyho nikdy neopustit a pomoci mu nalézt sílu, způsob a především důvody, proč se změnit…Stejně jako Chatrč (2007, česky 2009), kultovní kniha (celosvětově prodáno více než 20 milionů výtisků), v níž se tragédie smrti střetává s věčností božího záměru, jsou i Křižovatky určeny všem, kdo v kolotoči moderního světa hledají naplnění slov, jako je víra, láska a odpuštění.
