World of Warcraft: Mág
Aodhan pochází z rodiny, která dala Azerothu některé z jeho nejhrdinnějších paladinů a válečníků. Bystrý mladý muž však není na fyzický boj stavěný. Je to hubený knihomol, který si zoufale přeje stát se mágem. Poté, co mu jeho panovačný otec zakáže praktikovat magii, Aodhan uteče z domu, aby se mohl věnovat studiu arkánových umění ve městě Dalaran.
Aodhanův sen, že se jednou stane mocným kouzelníkem, však náhle přeruší hejno modrých draků, kteří Dalaran oblehnou. Ač se mladý mág nachází daleko od domova, dostane se mu pomoci od příbuzného, který mu byl celou dobu nablízku: Krevana, jeho čarodějného strýce. Vychytralý postarší mág po svém útěku z dalaranského vězení vezme vnímavého Aodhana pod svá křídla a společně začnou pracovat na tom, aby zabránili zničení města. Za bezútěšnou situací, v níž se Dalaran ocitl, se však skrývá temné tajemství, a Aodhan je možná jediný, kdo dovede ukončit pletichy, jež město ohrožují. A možná se při tom stane něčím, co by od něj jeho rodina nikdy neočekávala: hrdinou.
Napsal uznávaný spisovatel Richard A. Knaak (World of Warcraft: Hodina stínů) a nakreslil fanoušky oblíbený Ryo Kawakami (Warcraft: Legendy). World of Warcraft: Mág je akcí nabitý příběh o pokušení, moci a hrdinství, který jistě očaruje každého fanouška World of Warcraft!

World of Warcraft: Šaman
BLIZZARD ENTERTAINMENT hrdě představuje další zemí otřásající svazek ze série o povoláních ve World of Warcraft: Šaman!
Zemětřesení. Ohně. Záplavy. Vichřice. Mezi azerothskými duchy elementů panuje chaos. Jedinou naději, jak jim zabránit, aby rozervali svět na kusy, představují šamani jako Muln Earthfury a ostatní členové utajovaného Zeměkruhu. Avšak když Mulnovy pokusy o ukonejšení elementů selže, chaotičtí duchové dál bez zábran pokračují ve svém řádění. Zeměkruhem se šíří pochybnosti a vyvstane znepokojující otázka: ztratili šamani svou schopnost rozmlouvat s elementy?
Odpověď přichází v podobě příchodu Šotoy, tajuplného taurena, který ovládá elementy nikoli skrze uctivé prosby, nýbrž důraznými rozkazy. Jeho mocný druh šamanismu se selhávajícímu Zeměkruhu na první pohled jeví jako dar z nebes, avšak přijetí Šotoových způsobů by znamenalo vzdát se přesvědčení, která organizaci dlouhou dobu řídila. Zatímco se svět kolem nich hroutí, musí se Muln a Zeměkruh rozhodnout, zda je Šotoa hrdina… nebo kacíř.
World of Warcraft: Šaman napsal Paul Benjamin (StarCraft: Frontline) a nakreslila Rocio Zucchiová (World of Warcraft: Rytíř smrti). Dílo prozkoumává bohatou tradici Zeměkruhu a stoické úsilí šamanů zklidnit vzpurné azerothské elementály – stejné pravěké síly, které sehrály zásadní roli v herním datadisku World of Warcraft: Cataclysm.

Vow of the Shadow King
For fans of The Bridge Kingdom and A Deal with the Elf King, this sweeping tale of love and betrayal is equal blends sweet and spice.
A treacherous bride. A heartbroken groom. Is their marriage over before it’s begun?
Her deceit discovered, Faraine finds herself trapped in the Shadow Realm at the mercy of her new husband. She’s surrounded by enemies, far from any allies, and her best bet for survival is to convince Vor to send her home. But to do so means to give up on the alliance. Which would spell disaster for her people.
With the tremors growing worse and poison spreading through his realm, Vor is more desperate than ever to find a solution. Only, it cannot involve his wife. Vor wants nothing to do with the woman he has inadvertently married. At one time, he thought he might love her, but now? How can love flourish where trust is broken? When circumstances require them to spend more time together, however, Vor’s blood is stirred in ways he doesn’t like to acknowledge.
Can two lost hearts find healing and hope in one another? Or is their love already poisoned beyond recovery?

Red Comet: The Short Life and Blazing Art of Sylvia Plath
The first biography of this great and tragic poet that takes advantage of a wealth of new material, this is an unusually balanced, comprehensive and definitive life of Sylvia Plath.
Determined not to read Plath's work as if her every act, from childhood on, was a harbinger of her tragic fate, Clark presents new materials about Plath's scientist father, her juvenile writings, and her psychiatric treatment, and evokes a culture in transition in the mid-twentieth century, in the shadow of the atom bomb and the Holocaust, as she explores Sylvia's world: her early relationships and determination not to become a conventional woman and wife; her conflicted ties to her well-meaning, widowed mother; her troubles at the hands of an unenlightened mental-health industry; and her Cambridge years and thunderclap meeting with Ted Hughes, a true marriage of minds that would change the course of poetry in English.
Clark's clear-eyed sympathy for Hughes, his lover Assia Wevill, and other demonized players in the arena of Plath's suicide promotes a deeper understanding of her final days, with their outpouring of first-rate poems. Along with illuminating readings of the poems themselves, Clark's meticulous, compassionate research brings us closer than ever to the spirited woman and visionary artist who blazed a trail that still lights the way for women poets the world over.

The Flowers of Buffoonery
The Flowers of Buffoonery opens in a seaside sanatorium where Yozo Oba-the narrator of No Longer Human at a younger age-is being kept after a failed suicide attempt. While he is convalescing, his friends and family visit him, and other patients and nurses drift in and out of his room. Against this dispiriting backdrop, everyone tries to maintain a light-hearted, even clownish atmosphere: playing cards, smoking cigarettes, vying for attention, cracking jokes and trying to make each other laugh.
While No Longer Human delves into the darkest corners of human consciousness, The Flowers of Buffoonery pokes fun at these same emotions: the follies and hardships of youth, of love and of self-hatred and depression. A glimpse into the lives of a group of outsiders in pre-war Japan, The Flowers of Buffoonery is a darkly humorous and fresh addition to Osamu Dazai's masterful and intoxicating oeuvre.
Tower of Dawn
A glorious empire. A desperate quest. An ancient secret.
The search for allies extends to a new land in the sixth book of the #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas.
Chaol Westfall and Nesryn Faliq have arrived in the shining city of Antica to forge an alliance with the Khagan of the Southern Continent, whose vast armies are Erilea's last hope. But they have also come to Antica for another purpose: to seek healing at the famed Torre Cesme for the wounds Chaol received in Rifthold.
After enduring unspeakable horrors as a child at the hands of Adarlanian soldiers, Yrene Towers has no desire to help the young lord from Adarlan, let alone heal him. Yet she has sworn an oath to assist those in need, and she will honour it. But Lord Westfall carries his own dark past, and Yrene soon realises that those shadows could engulf them both.
Chaol, Nesryn, and Yrene will have to draw on every scrap of their resilience to overcome the danger that surrounds them. But while they become entangled in the political webs of the khaganate, long-awaited answers slumber deep in the mountains, where warriors soar on legendary ruks. Answers that might offer their world a chance at survival ... or doom them all.
The final battle looms in this sixth book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series.

Banská Bystrica / Poézia svetla / The Poetry of Light
Za živa v Bystrici, po smrti v nebi.
Už po stáročia sa každé ráno prebúdza mesto do neopakovateľnej atmosféry. Prvé ranné slnečné lúče dopadajú na hrdo sa týčiace bystrické veže. Veže, ktoré dotvárajú kolorit Banskej Bystrice ako niekdajšieho starobylého baníckeho mesta. Mesta, ktoré žije svojou výnimočnosťou a dýcha históriou na každom rohu.
Zachovalé chrámy, veže, hradby a meštianske domy sú trvalým klenotom našich dejín. Príbehy z minulosti sú zaznamenané nielen v kamenných múroch budov. Cítiť ich pri prechádzkach tajomnými uličkami mesta, ktoré sa každý deň vynímajú v poézií svetla. Aj keď metropola stredného Slovenska prešla od svojho vzniku výraznými zmenami, svoje genius loci si zachovala dodnes.
Sugestívnym pohľadom na Banskú Bystricu, vyobrazenú na čiernobielych fotografiách, je snahou zachytiť memento dávnych čias cez hru svetla a tieňov až do dnešnej podoby. Aj keď stáročia poznačili vývoj a smerovanie osídlia pod Urpínom, dodnes je nasiaknuté svojou minulosťou.
Prevediem Vás nielen históriou, ale aj súčasnými náladami tohto jedinečného mesta v srdci Slovenska, ktoré si pre svoju krásu okamihu právom zaslúžilo označenie Perla Slovenska.

The Last Hours: Chain of Thorns
James and Cordelia must save London — and their marriage — in this thrilling and highly anticipated conclusion to The Last Hours series from the #1 New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Cassandra Clare. Chain of Thorns is a Shadowhunters novel.
Cordelia Carstairs has lost everything that matters to her.
In only a few short weeks, she has seen her father murdered, her plans to become parabatai with her best friend, Lucie, destroyed, and her marriage to James Herondale crumble before her eyes. Even worse, she is now bound to an ancient demon, Lilith, stripping her of her power as a Shadowhunter.
After fleeing to Paris with Matthew Fairchild, Cordelia hopes to forget her sorrows in the city’s glittering nightlife. But reality intrudes when shocking news comes from home: Tatiana Blackthorn has escaped the Adamant Citadel, and London is under new threat by the Prince of Hell, Belial.
Cordelia returns to a London riven by chaos and dissent. The long-kept secret that Belial is James and Lucie’s grandfather has been revealed by an unexpected enemy, and the Herondales find themselves under suspicion of dealings with demons. Cordelia longs to protect James, but is torn between a love for James she has long believed hopeless, and the possibility of a new life with Matthew. Nor can her friends help — ripped apart by their own secrets, they seem destined to face what is coming alone.
For time is short, and Belial’s plan is about to crash into the Shadowhunters of London like a deadly wave, one that will separate Cordelia, Lucie, and the Merry Thieves from help of any kind. Left alone in a shadowy London, they must face Belial’s deadly army. If Cordelia and her friends are going to save their city — and their families — they will have to muster their courage, swallow their pride, and trust one another again. For if they fail, they may lose everything — even their souls.
Illidan - World of WarCraft
Illidan Stormrage je jednou z nejmocnějších bytostí, které se kdy procházely zeměmi Azerothu. Je také jednou z nejnepochopenějších. Pod rouškou legendy, za jeho záhadným posláním, se skrývá brilantní mysl, jejímž machinacím rozumí málokdo – a ještě méně jim věří. Illidanova vláda spravedlnosti a pomsty začala.
Kdysi dávno infiltroval čaroděj nočních elfů Illidan démonickou Plamennou legii, aby odvrátil její invazi do Azerothu. Místo toho, aby ho oslavovali jako hrdinu, o něm jeho vlastní rasa začala pochybovat a označovat jej za Zrádce, jakmile zjistila, že nejspíš pomáhá démonům. Deset tisíc let Illidan strádal ve vězení – zhanobený a izolovaný. Na svůj úděl však nikdy nezapomněl…
