The Broken Elf King
Book 2 in the Kings of Avalier series: a full-length fantasy romance that also stands alone…
I never should have taken that loan but my aunt needed meds I couldn’t afford. Now I’ve been sold to slavery and the Nightfall Queen’s guards have found out I’m not entirely human.
I guess I’m lucky they didn’t kill me.
The next thing I hear is that the Elf King himself has bought me, and I’m to be transferred to his castle. It will take me five years to pay off the debt but I get to be his personal assistant. Personal assistant to the king. That can’t be so bad, right?
Oh how wrong I was.
His council has tasked me with finding him a wife before they will fund his war against the Nightfall Queen. That part should be easy: he’s rich, disgustingly handsome, and smart to boot. The problem? He’s rejecting every high-born female I send his way.
The more time we spend together, the more we realize I’m not just some half elf. There is a deep power that runs through my veins, one that makes me a target… or his solution?
I enter into a fake marriage with him so that he can get the council off his back and I can get some protection.
That’s a great idea, as long as I don’t fall in love with him.
Should be simple enough…
The Broken Elf King is book TWO of FOUR in the Kings of Avalier series. It's a full-length standalone fantasy romance about the Elf King Raife Lightstone.
Everything the Darkness Eats
A haunting and horror-filled tale of loneliness, trauma and spiritual yearning from the award-winning author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke and Other Misfortunes.
An insidious darkness threatens to devastate a rural New England village when occult forces are conjured and when bigotry is left unrestrained.
After a recent string of disappearances in a small Connecticut town, a grieving widower with a grim secret is drawn into a dangerous ritual of dark magic by a powerful and mysterious older gentleman named Heart Crowley. Meanwhile, a member of local law enforcement tasked with uncovering the culprit responsible for the bizarre disappearances soon begins to learn of a current of unbridled hatred simmering beneath the guise of the town’s idyllic community?a hatred that will eventually burst and forever change the lives of those who once found peace in the quiet town of Henley’s Edge.
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).

The Awakened Brain
'We can live chasing goals and rewards, lost in worries and regrets. Or we can awaken to the true fabric of the world, an evolving tapestry that we both behold and help to create, in which every thread matters and no strand stands alone'
Whether it's meditation or a walk in nature, reading a sacred text or saying a prayer, there are many ways to tap into a heightened awareness of the world around us and our place in it. Lisa Miller draws on decades of clinical experience and award-winning research to show that humans are universally equipped with this capacity for spirituality, and that our brains become more resilient and robust as a result of it. Bringing scientific rigour to the most intangible aspect of our lives, Miller's counterintuitive findings reveal the measurable positive effects of spirituality: for better decision-making, a healthier brain and an inspired life.
Brimming with inspiration and compassion, this landmark book revolutionizes our understanding of spirituality, mental health and how to find meaning and purpose in life.

The Modem World
Fifteen years before the commercialization of the internet, millions of amateurs across North America created more than 100,000 small-scale computer networks. The people who built and maintained these dial-up bulletin board systems (BBSs) in the 1980s laid the groundwork for millions of others who would bring their lives online in the 1990s and beyond. From ham radio operators to HIV/AIDS activists, these modem enthusiasts developed novel forms of community moderation, governance, and commercialization. The Modem World tells an alternative origin story for social media, centered not in the office parks of Silicon Valley or the meeting rooms of military contractors, but rather on the online communities of hobbyists, activists, and entrepreneurs. Over time, countless social media platforms have appropriated the social and technical innovations of the BBS community. How can these untold stories from the internet's past inspire more inclusive visions of its future?
The Heart of Betrayal
The thrilling, New York Times bestselling sequel to The Kiss of Deception.
Held captive in the barbarian kingdom of Venda, Lia and Rafe have little chance of escape. Desperate to save her life, Lia's erstwhile assassin, Kaden, has told the Vendan Komizar that she has the gift, and the Komizar's interest in Lia is greater than anyone could have foreseen.
Meanwhile, nothing is straightforward: there's Rafe, who lied to Lia but has sacrificed his freedom to protect her; Kaden, who meant to assassinate her but has now saved her life; and the Vendans, whom Lia always believed to be barbarians.
Now that she lives among them, however, she realizes that may be far from the truth. Wrestling with her upbringing, her gift, and her sense of self, Lia must make powerful choices that will affect her country . . . and her own destiny.
The Heart of Betrayal drives up the stakes and the romance, and will leave readers desperate to read book three in the Remnant Chronicles, The Beauty of Darkness.

Mind the Gap: Mind the Gap: The Narrative Power of Illustrations and Drawings
Drawing is not a myth, but a tool, a means of gaining knowledge and the basis for illustrative and artistic pictorial expressions
How pictures can be used to tell a story, how are they made, and how the head and the hand collaborate in the creative process? Just as each image is unique, so are the individual intentions of the artists. The technical craftsmanship of HOW is as much a decisive criterion for the quality of an image as its contextual WHAT. In addition to all depiction methods, rules of design, and phenomena of perception, a number of additional factors are important in making convincingly narrated images.
This book invites readers to question the world with alert eyes, to discard conventions and to open up to other ways of thinking and new ways of seeing and approaching things: to dare to be playful and ready for any kind of experiment, to ultimately throw all rules overboard in order to find their very own artistic individuality. The author's approach is not so much a step-by-step instruction with template-like schemes, instead it focuses on the intrinsic logic of things, their connections and relations, and the link between presentation and design.

The Boys from Biloxi
For most of the last hundred years, Biloxi was known for its beaches, resorts, and seafood industry. But it had a darker side. It was also notorious for corruption and vice, everything from gambling, prostitution, bootleg liquor, drugs .
. . even contract killings.
The vice was controlled by a small cabal of mobsters, many of them rumoured to be members of the Dixie Mafia.
Keith Rudy and Hugh Malco grew up in Biloxi in the sixties and were childhood friends. But as teenagers, their lives took them in different directions. Keith's father became a legendary prosecutor, determined to 'clean up the Coast.' Hugh's father became the 'Boss' of Biloxi's criminal underground.
Keith went to law school and followed in his father's footsteps. Hugh preferred the nightlife and worked in his father's clubs. The two families were headed for a showdown, one that would happen in a courtroom.
Rich with history and with a large cast of unforgettable characters, The Boys from Biloxi is a sweeping saga of two sons of immigrant families who grow up as friends, but ultimately find themselves in a knife-edge legal confrontation in which life itself hangs in the balance.
In this novel, Grisham takes his powerful storytelling to the next level, his trademark twists and turns will keep you tearing through the pages until the stunning conclusion.
'It's a story that spans half a century and ends inevitably in a courtroom showdown.
