A varjak királysága 1: House of Beating Wings – Verdeső szárnyak


Szabadítsd fel a varjakat, Fallon, és királynővé tesznek! Mielőtt egy titokzatos látnok megjósolta uralkodói jövőmet, soha nem gondoltam volna, hogy több lehetek, mint aki most vagyok: egy varázslat nélküli félvér, akit bár a vadállatok szeretnek, minden tisztavérű tünde gyűlöl a királyságban. Nos…, kivéve egyet. Dante Regio, Luce hercege birtokolja szívemet, mióta neki adtam az első csókomat. Ha a vasereklyék összegyűjtése segíthet megdönteni a jelenlegi király hatalmát, és trónra juttatni a testvérét, hogy aztán együtt uralkodjunk, akkor kincsvadászatra indulok. Bárcsak a jós figyelmeztetett volna, hogy egy szárnyas démont szabadítok a világra! És arra, hogy én leszek a rögeszméje. Olivia Wildenstein első magyarul megjelenő könyvét imádni fogják a Sarah J. Maas- és a Mary E. Pearson-rajongók. Ez a cselszövésekkel, varázslatos lényekkel, árulással és megtévesztő szerelemmel teli nagyszabású fantasy teljesen magával ragadja az olvasót.

To the Moon and Back


Steph Harper is on the run. When she was five, her mother ran - with Steph and her younger sister in tow - from an abusive husband into the arms of a small Cherokee community, where she hoped they might finally belong. But Steph soon sets her sights as far away as she can get, vowing that she will let nothing interfere with her dream to become an astronaut, and ultimately, to go to the moon. In Steph's certainty that only her ambition can save her, she will stretch her bonds with the three women who know and love her most dearly: her younger sister Kayla, an artist whose determination to appear good takes her life to unexpected places; her college girlfriend Della, who strives to reclaim her identity as an adult after being removed from her family as a young girl through a challenge to the Indian Child Welfare Act; and her mother Hannah, who has held up her family's history as a beacon of inspiration to her kids, all the while keeping the truth about her own past a secret. Told through these women's interwoven lives, and spanning three decades and several continents, To the Moon and Back is an astounding and expansive coming-of-age novel of mothers and daughters, love and sacrifice, alienation and heartbreak, terror and wonder. At its core, it is the story of the extraordinary lengths one woman will go to find a little space for herself.

NUNC!


The 'Nunc Dimittis', set to music by composers from Tallis to Rachmaninov, is one of the great canticles of Christianity and is heard daily in Britain's cathedrals. It is based on ten verses in St Luke's Gospel. They relate the tale of Simeon, an old man who was told he would not die before he saw the Messiah. He waited and waited at the Temple in Jerusalem. At last he saw the infant Jesus. At that moment he cried, 'Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace according to thy word for mine eyes have seen thy salvation'. Simeon was at last able to surrender his life. Who was Simeon? Why did he wait? And how did the month-old Jesus escape King Herod's infamous massacre of the infants? The Bible does not say. Quentin Letts's quirky, affectionate Nunc! tries to put that right. It takes the reader to the occupied Jerusalem of Herod the Great, the puppet ruler whose Temple was a wonder of the ancient world. The action centres on Jerusalem's Deuteronomy Square where Simeon's old army friend Reuben runs a tea stall selling heavenly honey cakes and fig bread. We meet Bildad the beekeeper whose hive goes missing; grocer's boy Benjamin, owner of a mule and cart that might act as a getaway vehicle; the drawlingly subversive Zillah, whose political salon lends her influence; and Simeon's long-suffering landlady Noor. Deuteronomy Square's plucky regulars must endure not only the bawling of a power-mad Roman centurion, Lucilius, but also the more snivelly authoritarianism of Kedar, the city's clerk of works.

Nova Scotia House


FINALIST FOR THE LAMBDA LITERARY PRIZE 2026A FOYLES AND GUARDIAN BOOK OF THE YEARSHORTLISTED FOR THE GOLDSMITHS PRIZE‘A work of genius’ Philip Hoare‘One of the best things I’ve read in many many years’ Hilton Als'Beautifully provocative' Eimear McBrideA story of loss and grief, sex and love, and refusing to relinquish dreamsHe said he would understand if it was too much for me, that I could leave him, that I was young, I should be living, I said to him, I am living. Johnny Grant faces stark life decisions. Seeking answers, he looks back to his relationship with Jerry Field. When they met, nearly thirty years ago, Johnny was 19, Jerry was 45. They fell in love and made a life on their own terms in Jerry’s flat: 1, Nova Scotia House. Johnny is still there today – but Jerry is gone, and so is the world they knew. As Johnny’s mind travels between then and now, he begins to remember stories of Jerry’s youth: of experiments in living; of radical philosophies; of the many possibilities of love, sex and friendship before the AIDS crisis devastated the queer community. Slowly, he realizes what he must do next—and attempts to restore ways of being that could be lost forever. Nova Scotia House takes us to the heart of a relationship, a community and an era. It is both a love story and a lament; bearing witness to the enduring pain of the AIDS pandemic and honouring the joys and creativity of queer life. Intimate, visionary, and profoundly original, it marks the debut of a vibrant new voice in contemporary fiction, and a writer with a liberating new story to tell.

Honeysuckle


Once upon a time, on the edge of a forest, there was a lonely child with only his older sister for company. So his sister made him a playmate — Daye, a girl woven from carefully selected flowers and words. And finally, this boy, Rory, had a friend. Rory is gloriously happy, until he learns that Daye is a seasonal creature. At the end of each season, she must be woven back together or fall gruesomely apart. And when, one autumn, his sister fails to return home from university in time, Rory has no choice but to watch his best friend slowly crumble, not knowing until the last second if she can be pieced together again. Realizing he can no longer rely on his sister to keep Daye alive, Rory determines he must leave home to learn how to do it himself. And the more he learns, the more he starts to wonder: Why can’t Daye survive more than one season? Can he do anything to break this cycle of bloom and decay? But as Rory grows older, his thoughts turn darker too . . . While Rory sinks deeper into research and experiments, ensconced in libraries and hunched in university labs, Daye is left to wait for his return. Alone. Sometimes, the silence seems to seep all the way to her branch-bones. Sometimes, the company of birds is the only thing to remind her that she is still alive. And as Rory keeps pushing his experiments further and further, Daye starts to wonder – how far is too far?

The Soul Catchers


What if you could come back after death to watch over your loved one, installing yourself in a treasured mug, for example, or perhaps your mother's hearing aid, a diary, or even a climbing frame, to feel the clambering limbs of a beloved younger sister? Eleven recently deceased protagonists find themselves floating in the afterlife where a nameless ghost offers them a joyous reunion with their loved ones. But not as you would expect. In a world where souls linger restlessly around after death, unwilling to depart, The Soul Catchers is a comforting, witty, and surprisingly sensual take on the Japanese folk belief that objects can be inhabited by human presences. Utterly charming and feelgood, Higashi's classic is an original exploration of our eternal reluctance to let go.

My Death

The narrator sets about investigating her story as an artist, writer and muse to a much more famous man. Amazingly Ralston turns out to be still alive, and although elderly and frail a series of interviews begin. But a tale about the historic erasure of female voices starts to break down into something even more sinister, bizarre and all-consuming as the narrator uncovers unnerving parallels between Ralston's story and her own...

Průvodce jižanského čtenářského klubu zabíjením upírů


Patricia Campbellová nikdy netrpěla tak silným pocitem méněcennosti. Manžel je workoholik, dospívající děti si žijí po svém, senilní tchyně vyžaduje trvalou péči a ona sama soustavně nestíhá odškrtávat položky ze seznamu každodenních úkolů. Při životě ji drží jen čtenářský klub, uzavřená skupina žen z Charlestonu, které pojí vášeň pro knihy o true crime. Na schůzkách klubu diskutují se stejným zápalem o masovém vrahovi Mansonovi a jeho Rodině stejně jako o svých vlastních rodinách. Jednoho večera po schůzce klubu Patriciu brutálně napadne postarší sousedka, a tím do jejího života vstoupí sousedčin pohledný synovec James Harris. Je to scestovalý a sečtělý muž a v Patricii vyvolává pocity, jaké nezažila už roky. Když se ale v jiné části města začnou ztrácet děti a policie se k vyšetřování staví lhostejně, Patricia pojme podezření, že James Harris je spíš Ted Bundy než Brad Pitt. V čem je zásadní problém? James je netvor poněkud jiného typu – a Patricia mu otevřela bránu svého srdce i dveře svého domova. Krůček po krůčku proniká James do Patriciina života a pokouší se ji připravit o všechno, co dosud považovala za samozřejmé, včetně čtenářského klubu. Ale Patricia se nehodlá vzdát bez boje, jak dokládá tento krvavý příběh o láskyplných sousedských vztazích, jež se vymkly z rukou. Drákula dupe v záhonech Ocelových magnólií v příběhu o záhadném cizinci, který naruší fádní život ženského čtenářského klubu v jednom malém jižanském městě.
