„Nem a mai lesz a halálom napja.
Meg fogom menteni őt.”
– Violet Sorrengail Brennan könyvéhez fűzött megjegyzése
Miután majdnem másfél évet töltött a Basgiath Hadi Iskola falai között, Violet Sorrengail tisztában van vele, hogy már nincs idő elméleteket gyártani. És nincs már több idő a bizonytalankodásra sem.
A háború ugyanis elkezdődött, és az ellenség az iskola falain kívül és belül is egyre veszedelmesebb -- lehetetlen megmondani, hogy kiben lehet megbízni.
Violetnek útra kell kelnie a roskadozó aretiai varázsvédelmen túlra, hogy ismeretlen vidékeken keressen szövetségeseket Navarre számára. Az út alaposan próbára teszi a rátermettségét, a szerencséjét és az erejét, de bármit megtenne, hogy megmentse az övéit -- a sárkányait, a családját, az otthonát és persze a férfit, akit szeret.
Még akkor is, ha ehhez akkora titkot kell őriznie, amely talán mindent elpusztít körülötte.

Four Ruined Realms
The King of Yusan may be the greatest liar of them all.
His sisters ring is in his sights, and he will do anything to get what he wants. Even manipulating the five blades to steal it...
Bonded by deceit, the blades must rely on their skills to pull off King Joons pursuit or risk his legendary wrath.
A foreign rule of law stands between them and Quilimar, the Queen of Khitan. Now they have one month to steal the powerful Golden Ring of the Dragon Lord. But that impossible task might be easier than trusting one another, even though their lives, their families, and the realms depend on it.
They can all agree on one thing: the king cant win. But can they beat him at his own game?
Because for the blades, this time its not just personal, its revenge. Lies may have torn them apart, but now vengeance will bring them together.
The lies have only just begun...
Búrka mečov 1: Oceľ a sneh (špeciálne vydanie) - Pieseň ľadu a ohňa, Kniha tretia
Z piatich nepriateľov súperiacich o moc je jeden mŕtvy a druhý v nemilosti. Napätie medzi
mocnými rodmi sa vyostruje a celý svet sa pripravuje na vojnu, akú ešte nikto nezažil.
Joffrey Lannister je na tróne, no jeho vláda je neistá a plná intríg. Jeho najmocnejší nepriateľ
lord Stannis sa stal obeťou žiarlivej čarodejnice, ktorá ho pevne drží vo svojej temnej moci. A
mladý Robb Stark stále vládne severu z pevnosti v Riavokrute.
Medzitým na krvou zaliatom kontinente kráľovná Daenerys zhromažďuje armádu, aby
opätovne získala trón, o ktorom je presvedčená, že jej právom patrí. No kým sa pripravujú
vojny o moc, z najvzdialenejších kútov sveta prichádzajú barbari a divosi, vedení
legendárnymi Inými – armádou nemŕtvych, ktorých sila je nezastaviteľná. Kráľovstvá sú na
pokraji zániku, ale nikto nemieni v honbe za víťazstvom poľaviť.

Súboj kráľov (špeciálne vydanie) - Pieseň ľadu a ohňa Kniha druhá
ZIMA SA BLÍŽI
Čas sa zbláznil. Leto pokoja a hojnosti, ktoré trvalo desať rokov, sa pomaly chýli ku koncu a
mrazivá zima neúprosne kráča svetom. Dvaja veľkí vodcovia – lord Eddard Stark a Robert
Baratheon – sú mŕtvi a krajina sa ponára do chaosu. Šesť vojsk sa stretáva v brutálnom boji o
Železný trón, keď sa na oblohe zjaví znamenie skazy – kométa červená ako krv a oheň.
Eddardov syn Robb sa vyhlasuje za Kráľa severu, Joffrey Baratheon vládne na juhu, no trón je
ohrozený aj Robertovými bratmi. A na inom svetadiele Matka drakov, kráľovná vo vyhnanstve,
riskuje všetko, aby previedla svoje vzácne mláďatá cez drsnú horúcu púšť a získala späť
korunu, ktorá jej právom patrí.
Na pozadí incestu a bratovraždy, alchýmie a zabíjania sa za slávu platí krvou. A víťazná korisť
pripadne mužom a ženám, ktorí majú najchladnejšiu oceľ... a tie najchladnejšie srdcia.

Hra o tróny (špeciálne vydanie) - Pieseň ľadu a ohňa Kniha prvá
VÍŤAZI VLÁDNU, PORAZENÍ ZOMIERAJÚ, HRA O TRÓNY NEPOZNÁ PRAVIDLÁ
V krajine, kde leto trvá desaťročia a zima môže byť dlhšia než celý ľudský život, sa schyľuje
k nepokojom. Na severe povstávajú temné sily, zatiaľ čo na juhu sa kráľovská moc rozpadá
pod váhou intríg a zrady.
Uprostred tohto chaosu stojí rod Starkovcov zo Zimovresu – sú tvrdí, neústupní a odolní
ako samotná zamrznutá zem, z ktorej pochádzajú. Lord Stark, verný povinnosti a cti, je
proti svojej vôli povolaný na kráľovský dvor ako nový pobočník panovníka. Tento krok však
môže ohroziť nielen jeho rod, ale aj samotnú krehkú rovnováhu kráľovstva.
V Hre o tróny sa stretávajú lordi a dámy, vrahovia a čarodejníci, divoké kmene privádzajúce
ľudí k šialenstvu či dračí princ, ktorý neváha obetovať vlastnú krv kvôli moci. Príbeh zrady,
lásky a neodpustiteľných chýb sa práve začína.

The fate of the entire Cosmere hangs in the balance.
Court of the Vampire Queen (Collector's Edition)
LIMITED COLLECTOR'S EDITION: This gorgeous, deluxe edition of Katee Robert's devilishly spicy vampire romance has been redesigned with a reversible dust jacket featuring full-colour character art, designed edges and a ribbon bookmark, as well as exclusive material inside.
From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the hit Dark Olympus series comes Court of the Vampire Queen: a collection of the spicy, paranormal Bloodline Vampires novels.
Three powerfully alluring vampire men… and one Queen to rule them all.
All Mina ever wanted was to escape her father's control. Half human, half vampire, she lived eternally torn between two worlds, never fully experiencing the pleasures of either - until her father chose her as the pawn in his latest political move, gifting her to the darkly powerful and dangerously seductive Malachi Zion.
Malachi is not a vampire to be trifled with. He rules with an iron fist and has a reputation for the darkest of sins. But the longer Mina spends with him, the more she realises he's not the monster she first thought. As fear bleeds into lust, then trust, then something more, Malachi opens Mina up to a world she never knew could be hers for the taking: including the love of Malachi's two closest friends and companions.
Now surrounded by all three men and the centre of their shockingly seductive world, Mina may finally have the power to face down her father and take back the life - and crown - that by all rights should be hers.
BOW BEFORE YOUR QUEEN.
This redesigned Collector's Edition features multiple pieces of black-and-white interior art, as well as exclusive annotations from the author that take readers even deeper into this irresistible vampire romance tale.

As Cohort-Invigilator of Correct Appreciation, Outreach department, she's here as aide to the Palleseen Resident, Sage-Invigilator Angilly.

After a lifetime of war, Alaric and Talasyn were thrust into an alliance between their homelands that was supposed to end the fighting; however, being married to their sworn foe feels far from peaceful. Now Talasyn must play the part of Alaric’s willing empress while her allies secretly plot to overthrow his reign. But the longer the couple are forced together, the harder it becomes to deny the feelings crackling like lightning between them. When the time comes to act, can she trust him, or must she ignore her heart for the sake of so many others?
As the master of the Shadowforged Legion, Alaric has trained for battle all his life, but marrying a Lightweaver might be his most dangerous challenge yet. With tensions between nations churning, he needs to focus on the greater threat—the Moonless Dark, a cataclysmic magical event that could devour everything. Only he and Talasyn can stop it, with a powerful merging of light and shadow that they alone can create together. But saving their world from this disaster is a mere preface to his father’s more sinister schemes, and his wife is a burning flame in the darkness, tempting both his loyalties and his desires.
The Hurricane Wars aren’t over. It’s time to choose what—and who—to fight for. The world holds its breath amidst a whirlwind of new magic and old secrets that could change everything.

But the Fates disagree.
When a blood test leads to her admittance at the Spartan War Academy, she’ll have to do more than merely survive.
Alexis will have to claim her birthright: immortality.
But immortality is a privilege, one earned in the crucible of the academy, where the heroes are villains and classrooms battlegrounds.

Because where there are gods, there are bound to be monsters, and there is more than one hunting Alexis…
