Return


A powerful testament to writing as an act of beauty and rebellion that speaks truth and condemns violent legacies and a feverish ode that weaves together personal and national history to finally find healing.  This evocative novel from a great figure of Malagasy literature tells the story of Hira, a writer born on the seventh anniversary of Madagascar’s independence. He wanders through different cities on a book tour, but the experience is amnesiac and confusing. There is a past he is trying to reckon with, filled with violence against both his family and country. He runs from his wife and represses his memories until it all explodes in fever dreams and a vomit of words. But to write the rebirth that he yearns for, Hira must write of his father’s torture, his tortured island, and how both were juxtaposed to his own happy childhood. In combing through these various pasts, he might make the same mistake his father did: trying to change the world but leaving his own family broken.   Drawing from the lived experience of both the author and his parents, the violence of both life and language, and the stories of both myth and history, Return is a search for an individual’s place within larger collective trauma. Infused with Raharimanana’s signature poeticism and intensity, this is a masterwork by an as-yet-overlooked but essential voice in the postcolonial tradition.

Star Wars Outlaws: Low Red Moon


ND-5 and Jaylen Vrax embark on their descent into the galaxy’s underworld in search of answers and opportunity, in this essential prequel to Star Wars Outlaws. Jaylen Barsha, heir to his family’s immense power and wealth, had his life charted out for him neatly and meticulously by his parents, even though he suspected his neglected half-brother Sliro would be a better fit for the bright corporate future his parents envisioned. Then the Empire stripped it all away on trumped-up charges of conspiracy against his family. Before he can reach Sliro for help redeeming the Barsha name, a battle droid arrives at the family compound with a mission to kill every last member of the Barsha clan. Jaylen manages to fend off the attack as the sole survivor, but realizes the droid, who he reprograms, is his only chance to stay alive.

He was a proficient contributor to the Separatist cause, but what is a soldier without a war? A trigger without aim? Loyalty is in his programming, and Jaylen, who treats him as more than just a weapon, has earned it. Perhaps, the droid thinks, with a partner he can be more. ND-5 just has to earn Jaylen’s trust. With the threat against the Barsha clan still shrouded in mystery, the pair has no choice but to leverage the chaos and disappear. They find sanctuary in the anonymity of the underworld, building their reputation among scoundrels, bounty hunters, and crime syndicates. But when their latest score gives the first real clue in years to who sent ND-5 after Jaylen’s family, their biggest opportunity presents a new kind of risk. Do they give up this chance at the wealth and power Jaylen was denied to pursue answers? Or will ambition and the weight of the past shatter their unlikely partnership?

Ještě není konec


Český detektivní román se svéráznou komisařkou Výrovou v hlavní roli. Literární předloha televizní série Detektivové od Nejsvětější trojice. Je horké srpnové odpoledne roku 1987. Končí prázdniny a dvanáctiletá Hana se v prvorepublikové vile u řeky na kraji města stane svědkem šokující vraždy. Příslušníci Veřejné bezpečnosti pachatele nápadně rychle zadrží, přičemž Hanino tvrzení, že vrahem byl ve skutečnosti podivný zelený přízrak, ze všeho nejvíc připomínající vodníka z Erbenovy Kytice, nikdo nebere vážně. Policejní komisařka Marie Výrová se tentokrát bude zabývat čtvrt století starou vraždou. Po setkání s Hanou Kolihovou, která se z hrůzného zážitku nikdy nevzpamatovala, zpočátku jen ze zvědavosti prostuduje spis dávno uzavřeného případu. Záhy však nabyde jistoty, že se tehdejší vyšetřovatelé dopustili řady chyb a že podezřelých, již ke zločinu měli motiv a příležitost, může být mnohem víc. Rodinné přízraky po pětadvaceti letech ožívají i proti vůli těch, kteří si ze všeho nejvíc přáli zapomenout. Na všech leží stín viny. Kdo je skutečným pachatelem zločinu, který zcela rozvrátil kdysi prominentní rodinu věhlasného místního lékaře?

Čarokámen


Seznamte se s Lászlem, osmisetletým démonem a nejméně produktivním správcem kleteb v celém Pekle. Ze své kanceláře pod Midtownem dohlíží na Drakefordovu kletbu, která zahrnuje jednu nešťastnou rodinu na severu státu New York a záhadný černý kámen. Sama kletba je nebývale atraktivní – má původ v koloniálních časech a její oběti se mění ve zrůdná monstra –, ale László se nikterak nesnaží maximalizovat její potenciál. Raději se vyvaluje na Ibize, pije jedno martini za druhým a podvádí šejdíře v newyorském metru. V jeho kanceláři však naneštěstí dojde ke změně vedení a Lászlovo zaměstnanecké hodnocení je tak hrozivě špatné, že dostane šest dní na to, aby věci napravil, jinak bude bez milosti roztaven a navrácen zpátky do Primordiálního slizu. Na scénu vstupuje Maggie Drakefordová, devatenáctiletá nositelka kletby. Za celý svůj život poznala jen ponurý kout Catskillských hor, kde Drakefordova kletba pohltila lidskost jejího otce a rychle začíná usilovat i o tu její. Budoucnost vypadá beznadějně, dokud se před Drakefordovic domem jedné říjnové noci neobjeví László a neoznámí jim, že mají pouhých šest dní na to kletbu zlomit, jinak je bude trýznit až na věky věků.
