The Storyteller: Tales of Life and Music
So, I've written a book.
Having entertained the idea for years, and even offered a few questionable opportunities ('It's a piece of cake! Just do four hours of interviews, find someone else to write it, put your face on the cover, and voila!'), I have decided to write these stories just as I have always done, in my own hand. The joy that I have felt from chronicling these tales is not unlike listening back to a song that I've recorded and can't wait to share with the world, or reading a primitive journal entry from a stained notebook, or even hearing my voice bounce between the Kiss posters on my wall as a child.
This certainly doesn't mean that I'm quitting my day job, but it does give me a place to shed a little light on what it's like to be a kid from Springfield, Virginia, walking through life while living out the crazy dreams I had as young musician. From hitting the road with Scream at 18 years old, to my time in Nirvana and the Foo Fighters, jamming with Iggy Pop or playing at the Academy Awards or dancing with AC/DC and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, drumming for Tom Petty or meeting Sir Paul McCartney at Royal Albert Hall, bedtime stories with Joan Jett or a chance meeting with Little Richard, to flying halfway around the world for one epic night with my daughters...the list goes on. I look forward to focusing the lens through which I see these memories a little sharper for you with much excitement.
The Thief's Daughter - A tolvaj lánya - Királyforrás 2.
Harcba száll, ha a kötelesség szólítja, de vajon a szerelemért is képes megtenni?
Owen Kiskaddon rabként került a rémséges Severn király udvarába. Aztán, miután elhitette vele, hogy a Forrás kegyeltje, sikerült a házsártos uralkodó kegyeibe férkőznie. Kilenc év telt el azóta, és az egykor bátortalan Owen mostanra magabiztos fiatalemberré cseperedett. Horwath herceg pártfogása alatt sokat tanult harcról és politikáról, és időközben beleszeretett gyermekkori barátjába, a herceg unokájába.
De az Owen és Elysabeth Mortimer által elképzelt boldog jövőt beárnyékolja a király ármánykodása.
Egy trónkövetelő lépett színre, aki megesküdött, hogy addig nem nyugszik, amíg meg nem kaparintja Királyforrás koronáját. Severn király szembeszáll a veszéllyel, de Elysabethet használja fel ahhoz, hogy tőrbe csalja az imposztort - Owen, aki csupán jelentéktelen szereplő e színjátékban, most arra kényszerül, hogy válasszon kötelesség és szerelem között. A vidéket méregkeverők és kémek járják, a háború a küszöbön áll, és Owennek szörnyű áldozatot kell hoznia, ha távol akarja tartani a fenyegető árnyakat.
Vajon szíve a királyt követi, vagy hajlandó mindent kockára tenni a szerelemért?
Ismerd meg sorsukat!

Having found Skilgannon's ancient tomb, he gathers up the bones and peforms the mystic ritual But the reborn hero is an enigma: a young man whose warrior skills are blunted and whose memories are fragmented. This Skilgannon is a man out of time, Marooned in a world as strange to him as a dream, remote from all he knew and loved. Or nearly all. Before bringing back Skilgannon, Landis Kan had experimented upon other bone fragments found in the hero's tomb. That ritual resulted in a surly giant who possessed astounding strength but no memories. To Kan, he is a dangerous failure. To Skilgannon, this giant represents their last hope As ageless evil threatens to drown the Drenai lands in blood, two legendary heroes will once again lead the way to freedom

Lacná kniha Cursed Britain: A History of Witchcraft and Black Magic in Modern Times (-70%)
The definitive history of how witchcraft and black magic have survived, through the modern era and into the present day
Cursed Britain unveils the enduring power of witchcraft, curses and black magic in modern times. Few topics are so secretive or controversial. Yet, whether in the 1800s or the early 2000s, when disasters struck or personal misfortunes mounted, many Britons found themselves believing in things they had previously dismissed - dark supernatural forces.
Historian Thomas Waters here explores the lives of cursed or bewitched people, along with the witches and witch-busters who helped and harmed them. Waters takes us on a fascinating journey from Scottish islands to the folklore-rich West Country, from the immense territories of the British Empire to metropolitan London. We learn why magic caters to deep-seated human needs but see how it can also be abused, and discover how witchcraft survives by evolving and changing. Along the way, we examine an array of remarkable beliefs and rituals, from traditional folk magic to diverse spiritualities originating in Africa and Asia.
This is a tale of cynical quacks and sincere magical healers, depressed people and furious vigilantes, innocent victims and rogues who claimed to possess evil abilities. Their spellbinding stories raise important questions about the state's role in regulating radical spiritualities, the fragility of secularism and the true nature of magic.

Legenda o Sigurdovi a Gudrún - The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrún
Autor Pána prstenů se vždy zajímal o severskou mytologii. Příběh o Sigurdovi a Gudrún je součástí Ságy o Völsunzích, ale hlavní hrdina se objevuje i v Eddě. Tolkien spojil zlomky příběhu v ucelenou linii a zpracoval ji za využití obtížného eddického verše, při zachování lasického rozměru i typických aliterací. Text vydal z otcovy pozůstalosti jeho syn Christopher a doprovodil ho obšírným komentářem.
Bilingvní česko-anglické vydání.
