Bouda
MRTVOLA NA HAUSBÓTU, OČI KRÁSNÉ DÍVKY A BEZDĚČNÝ DETEKTIV NA ÚTĚKU...
Je mlhavé zářijové ráno roku 1962 a bezděčný detektiv Ota Fink – v civilu soustružník – se probouzí v kajutě opuštěného hausbótu u břehu Libeňského ostrova přímo vedle mrtvoly brutálně zavražděného muže. Neví, jak se tam dostal, ale jedním si je jist: že bude hlavním podezřelým z chladnokrevného zločinu. A tak se stává psancem.
Nemá jinou možnost než vypátrat pachatele na vlastní pěst. Jeho odhodlání posiluje fakt, že mrtvého zná, a to ze společnosti karlínské trampské party Modravých stínů, k níž patří i krásná Dženy, která má na muže takřka nadpřirozený vliv. Navíc záhy dojde k další, neméně brutální vraždě, jejíž obětí se měl stát sám Ota.
Proč pachatel zabíjí nohou od stolu? Jakou roli v celé historii hrají Modravé stíny? Je právě křehká Dženy bezprostřední příčinou krutých událostí? A není to všechno jen past na Otu, která měla sklapnout?

Makanna, otec divů
Šestý svazek Spisů Jiřího Weila. Román Makanna, otec divů poprvé vyšel na přelomu zimy a jara 1946. Jiří Weil jej psal již v prvních letech okupace a Makanna měl vyjít v Jandově nakladatelství v roce 1941 pod jménem Weilova přítele Pavla Vyskočila. Konspirativní plán však zmařila nacistická správa: Vyskočil byl transportován do koncentračního tábora Mauthausen, kde byl poslední den roku 1941 zabit (když román vyšel, byl opatřen věnováním: „Památce Pavla Vyskočila ubitého v Mauthausenu, který chránil tuto knihu svým jménem“).
Doslov pro první vydání napsal Pavel Eisner: „Viděl jsem tu knihu vznikat, byl jsem jeden z pěti šesti lidí, kteří věděli, kdo je jejím vlastním autorem, byl jsem svědkem, jak se v hrdinném tvůrčím náporu rodí z hladu, zimy, bídy, perzekuce, z úzkostí a trýzně, z životní opuštěnosti téměř naprosté. ¶ Ale přesto myslím, že nezkresluji svým úsudkem, když jí připisuji tolik kladů. Je to pořádný kus výpravné prózy, ukázněné, zvládnuté, sytě předmětné, plastické, s nejednou pasáží opravdu kutou. (...) Jeho výjevy ze středního asijského Orientu, přírodními sceneriemi počínajíc, mají vlastnost, která je povznáší nad ověření odborného znalce (ačkoli by, myslím, přitakal): přesvědčují. Z podkladu daného historickými zprávami o své postavě ústřední rozvinul autor dějovou fabuli volně, vždyť nešlo o žádnou biographie romancée. Pokud jde o tzv. prostředí, tedy to, čemu bych raději řekl nebe, vzduch, světlo, duše krajiny a krajin, dech a rytmus přírody, mohl se autor opřít o zážitky ze svého někdejšího pobytu ve středoasijské končině sovětského Ruska. Součtem toho všeho vznikl historický román orientální, nadaný velkou přitažlivostí obsahu, děje, podání. (...) Životní princip lži nelze obsáhnout rozumem. Proto není rozumového vysvětlení pro přepodivné zákruty, kterými probíhá cesta Makannova od dětských dnů ve vesnici Gaze u města Mervu až po ohnivou pec na hradě Sam. Tím nezahladitelněji se však vryjí v paměť závěrečné věty románu, ze kterých se ještě jednou, poslední postava za průvodem vyklizujícím scénu knihy, vynořuje zjev věčného otroka Fazla, ztělesněné zneužití člověka, ale i ztělesněná výstraha: Nejhorší způsob, jak čelit lži a zlu, je otroctví. ¶ Symfonií a epopejí lži vůdcovské bych nazval román Jiřího Weila.“
Román oceňovala i literární historička Růžena Grebeníčková, mj. napsala: „V románě Makanna, otec divů si Weil svou centrální otázku – jak rozlišit mezi klamným a neklamným, mezi iluzí, lží, podvodem, předstíráním, a mezi autentickou povahou věcí a lidí, když je pravé a falešné v normálním běžném zacházení přece k nerozeznání slito? – dosloví a, uvědomí, zformuluje a naplno otevře. Od té chvíle zůstane tematika svedení, pokušení, téma lžimesiášství latentně zázemím celé Weilovy tvorby. Problém falešného spasitelství, nepravé utopie, ideje, která svádí, zavádí, podrobuje si lidské životy, se nyní nadále neztrácí ani tam, kde ji autor modifikuje zdánlivě zcela jiným směrem. Ústřední téma se mu totiž stále prohlubuje a zřetelně přerůstá až k vydělení dvou sfér, v nichž se odvíjí život člověka, nebo též ke zjištění toho, co je vlastním lidským životem“ (Jiří Weil a normy české prózy po patnácti letech, Plamen č. 11/1963; přetištěno in R. G., Literatura a fiktivní světy I, ed. Michael Špirit, Praha, Český spisovatel 1995).

Rapunzel meets the myth of Psyche and Cupid in a standalone fantasy romance tale of love, survival and healing, as a mortal woman and a god unite to overcome deadly trials - and their own tortured pasts - in the climactic final installment of the Four Winds series.
Min of Marles spends her days at the apothecary creating potions and poisons while being pushed around by her employer, Madame Clarisse. But this is no ordinary potion shop: it specialises in brews made with ingredients harvested from the immortal beings the madame keeps imprisoned.
Eurus, the East Wind, is one such prisoner, tortured daily by Madame Clarisse. Haunted by his cries of pain, Min impulsively sets Eurus free, only to have him steal her away to his enchanted chateau on a remote island.
Min is desperate for freedom while Eurus longs for revenge against old enemies. The two strike a deal: if Min brews a deadly poison for his foes, Eurus will let her go. The only catch? To confront Eurus' enemies, they must travel to the City of Gods - where he'll have to compete in a brutal tournament to get closer to his targets.
Forced to work together despite mutual distrust, a powerful attraction grows between Min and Eurus. But with enemies on all sides and every reason to betray each other, will their fledgling love be enough to get them both out of the City of Gods alive?
Seven
As heard on BBC R4s Start the Week, 'hilarious, insightful and supremely intelligent writing''What a writer.' ALI SMITH'Endlessly inventive' THE TIMES'Thoroughly pleasurable' DAILY TELEGRAPH'One of the most brilliant British writers working today.' SPECTATORWho decides the rules of the games we pla? n August 2007, or thereabouts, a young philosopher leaves Oslo, heading for Greece, on a mission to find Theodoros Apostolakis, the head of the Society of Lost Things. Fortunately, Apostolakis isn't lost, but everything else is: ancient libraries, entire civilisations, priceless books and a beautiful box, once used to play the world-famous game of Seven. The hunt for this small thing, among the countless lost things, becomes an absurdist quest through time and space: from the earliest human societies to the advent of AI. Told, shared and mythologised by our narrator, along with a wild cast of dreamers, philosophers, poets, rebels and optimists, Seven is an extraordinary, uplifting journey through an ever darkening world.

One stolen chair. One ancient egg. One night that changed everything. I never expected a stolen chair to change my destiny. But there she was—a pint-sized firecracker with curves that made my wolf howl, claiming my favorite seat at the bar. I should've walked away. Instead, I found myself rescuing her from trouble, then agreeing to help her retrieve some ancient egg that practically hummed with supernatural energy. We raced against time through a city teeming with shadowy creatures, and I couldn't tell if the electricity in the air was from the egg's magic or the way Natalie's touch set my skin ablaze. My wolf was restless, sensing something bigger at play. Every choice we made sent ripples through the supernatural world, and I started to think this wasn't just chance. One thing was certain—this wasn't the quiet night I planned, but it might have been exactly what I needed. Get ready for a steamy paranormal romance filled with danger, destiny, and undeniable chemistry. ___________________________________________________________________Praise for the Shifter Days, Vampire Nights & Demons in Between series:?
