The Moonsingers
In a quiet glen beyond the reach of the railway lives a peculiar family who knows the best magic is the kind found in ordinary moments.
When Ismay Gebhardt is dismissed from yet another teaching post after an unfortunate accident (which everyone survived!), she accepts a last-chance job as a private tutor in sleepy Glenmaidens village. The town is brimming with natural beauty, uncanny traditions, and earnest locals, none more unusual than her three young pupils-the Underhill sisters-and their puzzling father.
Determined to make herself useful after several catastrophic lessons with the unbiddable girls, Ismay writes to the transport bureau suggesting an extension to the train line, hoping to bring Glenmaidens into modernity. As usual, Ismay's good intentions lead to chaos with the arrival of the bureau's frustratingly thorough officer, Hamish Breck, whose railway plans threaten not only the glen's tranquility, but also the ancient oak tree at its heart. Amidst a mess of her own making, Ismay unearths Glenmaidens' enchanted secret: the Underhills, like many villagers, are fairies who settled in the mortal world in search of a gentler life, and the oak is their only bridge back to the moonlit realm of the fantastic.
As summer heat rises, Ismay schemes with her magical neighbors to prevent the extension, each day finding herself more entangled with the charming, persistent bureaucrat. With her newfound family, the way between worlds, and her heart all at risk, Ismay must decide how much she would bargain to finally embrace the wonder and belonging she's always wished for.
Witch Season - Broken Coven 1
Perfect for fans of Juno Dawson, Leigh Bardugo and Buffy, Witch Season is a grounded enemies-to-lovers urban fantasy that explores a world of competing covens, malevolent mentors, and the horror and power of stolen magic.
Katherine Barnes was an unsettled witch - a witch born to non-magical parents and saddled with a power she couldn't explain, let alone control.
Following a tragic accident that sent her running away from home at sixteen, the only reason Katherine survived was Sylvia Page, the leader of Los Angeles' Aestas Coven and a former unsettled witch herself, who scooped Katherine up and taught her how to harness the storm inside. Together, over the past thirteen years, Katherine and Sylvia turned Aestas into a halfway house for unsettled witches, creating the home neither of them got to have.
Enter Silas Khatri, the heir to the most influential coven in the country who has a mandate from his parents to bring the rogue Aestas Coven to heel.
Desperate to muscle Silas out of her territory, Sylvia makes an impulsive decision that gives her untold power - but at the cost of an unsettled teenager's life. Unaware of her mentor's betrayal, Katherine launches an investigation into the young witch's death.
As she unravels secrets that go back further than she ever knew, Katherine finds an unlikely ally in the man she thought she hated and an unexpected enemy in the woman who saved her future. With Silas' real motives and the depths of Sylvia's treachery all coming to light, Katherine has to decide what's more important - the family she's worked so hard to build, or the truth.

NOMINATED FOR THE PRESTIGIOUS JAPAN BOOKSELLERS' AWARD . ADAPTED INTO A MAJOR TV SERIES . 440,000 COPIES SOLD IN JAPAN
You always told me that writing is life itself.
After many years abroad, Hatoko reluctantly returns to Kamakura to take over the stationery store left to her by her late grandmother. As the custodian of the store, she also inherits the profession of public scribe, a role Hatoko trained for as a child under the guidance of her strict grandmother.
As the locals seek out Hatoko's help, she takes on all manner of requests: writing letters of greeting, condolence, farewell, love, and more on behalf of those who come to her. A local community forms around Hatoko and the store, and, when the secrets of her late grandmother begin to unravel, Hatoko learns that the role of the scribe requires much more than putting ink to paper.
Set to the rhythm of the four seasons and the Japanese rituals and festivities that come with them, Tsubaki Stationery Store is a charming story about the importance of community and the reconciliatory power of the written word.

Směli jsme zůstat, 2 vydání
Autorovi této knihy jde o kritickou sebereflexi české strany tam, kde vůči Němcům přetrvává zaujatost, mýty, legendy a polopravdy; o co možná nejobjektivnější pohled na soužití obou národů v minulosti; o střízlivé a věcné posouzení faktorů, které vedly k vzájemnému odcizení; o vzbuzení hlubší empatie vůči všem nevinným Sudetoněmcům, které postihlo vyhnání z Čech i Moravy; o bližší poznání spoluobčanů německé národností, kteří ve své domovině směli zůstat; o trvalé zlepšování česko-německých vztahů a prohlubující se přátelství mezi našimi dvěma národy.
Je to kniha, která čtenáře přiměje k hlubšímu zamyšlení, kdo jsme my, kdo jsou oni, kde se staly chyby a jak je dnes lze nejlépe překonávat.
Márnice
Noc patří mrtvým. A Žaneta to brzy pozná na vlastní kůži. Po rozchodu jí nezůstalo nic – jen dluhy, podmínka a pocit, že se jí život rozpadá pod rukama. Když přijme práci na nočních směnách v márnici, bere ji jako poslední šanci začít znovu.
Márnice. Ticho. Chlad. Těla pod prostěradly, která by se už nikdy neměla pohnout. Tak proč mají na zápěstích zvonečky? Žaneta začíná pochybovat – o sobě, o realitě, o všem, co vidí a slyší. Je to jen její mysl? Nebo si s ní pohrává někdo, kdo odmítl odejít?
Mijamoto Musaši 2: Dva meče
V pokračování příběhu ze starého Japonska se opět setkáváme s mladým šermířem, neohroženým samurajem Mijamotem Musašim, který po svém vítězství nad Sasakim Kodžiróem pociťuje smutek ze ztráty svých blízkých i pochybnosti o smyslu své cesty. Vydává se do nehostinné a téměř liduprázdné lesnaté části provincie Ečizen, aby se setkal s poustevníkem Tósaiem. Doufá, že v jeho moudrosti nalezne odpovědi na své existenciální otázky. Cestou je zapleten do útoku tajemných válečníků. Zoufale se snaží přežít, aniž by chápal brutální mocenskou hru, jíž se stal součástí. Co v sobě skrývá uzamčené pouzdro, které se Musašimu shodou náhod dostane do rukou? Setkání se starým známým, knížetem Kacunarim, pozvolna vnáší světlo do temné konspirace, v níž je ve hře osud celého Japonska.
City v nádobách
Tři příběhy. Tři nádoby. Tři city, které se nedají udržet.
City v nádobách jsou prózou o tom, co zůstane na dně, když se vyp?e vše ostatní. Bedřich hledá inspiraci ve sklenici piva a nachází jen paradox – miluje příliš na to, aby mohl psát, a píše příliš na to, aby mohl milovat. Pavlína pluje za archeologickým objevem na zapomenutý řecký ostrov a místo starověkého pokladu narazí na vlastní touhu, kterou nedokáže ani pojmenovat, ani zadržet.
A Bedřichův dopis Pavlíně – psaný s přesýpacími hodinami na stole – je vyznáním, které ví, že přichází příliš brzy, a přesto musí být napsáno.
Ondřej Chlubna propojuje tři hlasy, tři časové roviny a jeden společný motiv: city, které se nedají vylít, protože jsou až na samém dně – a právě tam jsou nejsilnější
