Pekní vtáci
Tretia kniha aforizmov Emila Babína je iná ako dve predchádzajúce. Teraz sa v nej stretli básnik a aforista Babín a filmový režisér Martin Šulík ako výtvarník. Ide o stretnutie nanajvýš šťastné: Babínove aforizmy Šulík skvelo ilustruje a nápadito interpretuje humornou optikou. Kniha sa tým významne získala farebnosť a znásobila jej estetiku.
Autor aforizmov zažil dva režimy a založením je smoliar. Prečo? Lebo len čo si v demokracii konečne slobodne vystrel chrbát, seklo ho v krížoch. No pochopil, že dívať sa a vidieť sú dve rozdielne veci, iný uhol pohľadu. Náš svet je plný súčasníkov, ktorí sa potkýnajú aj na rovnej ceste. Všetky tie prešľapy a pády sú zdrojom aj komických situácií. Tak ako v aforizme Pekní vtáci: Väčšina poslancov má vtáčiu povahu. Do parlamentu sa prišli zazobať.
Martin Šulík svojimi obrázkami zase dokazuje, že je nielen výborný režisér, ale i výtvarník s veľkým darom humoru.
Vychádza v edícii DVAJAvJEDNOM. Dizajn a zalomenie knihy Martin Kurhajec.
Kill Billionaire
Perhaps one reason not enough people kill billionaires is it's actually quite tricky...
When her home is destroyed in wildfires, fourteen-year-old Australian outback genius Kayla Connolly decides to hunt down the culprits of climate change: billionaires.
She teams up with Mr P, a giant ex-soldier from Tuvalu whose home is being flooded by rising sea levels. Together, they find ingenious ways to kill a property developer building on protected wetlands and a mining company CEO poisoning the earth with toxic chemicals. They also find an unexpected ally in Nancy, a wealthy elderly woman with a shocking past.
The trio's mission soon develops a life of its own, taking them first to California to crack billionaire tech bros and then to London for superrich oil executives, spawning a global movement along the way. In pursuit are the FBI and Detective Sergeant Kate Anderson of Scotland Yard, but Kate is having doubts about whether Kayla is even in the wrong. Will Kayla be able to stay ahead of the game and pull off one final, remarkable hit?

Day Care
Nora Lange''s debut novel, Us Fools, was praised as the ''Great American Novel'' by Molly Young in The New York Times, and ''a razor-sharp critique of American capitalism'' by Michael Schaub at NPR. Now, she turns her eye toward the daily exercise of getting by. In ''Heart Beats'', Carol and David arrive late to a Boston dinner party for a night of ''messy socialising'' with other couples, including a former cult-leader turned financial-advisor and a woman who learned of a ''kinky sort of game'' while riding public transit, details that she will reveal after the peach crumble. In ''Island of Phaetons'', an expatriate living in Istanbul is called away from her daily life with ''the husband'' and ''the friend who wanted more than friendship'' to visit her mother, who notoriously makes bad decisions, and who has just arrived in Greece ''with news'' for her daughter, a tantalising invitation that has her daughter immediately on a plane. In ''Dog Star'', two figurines live out their dreams before succumbing to the truth that they have been assembled inside of a snow globe and will never go anywhere. In the title story, a new mother in Los Angeles navigates a job, a long-distance relationship with her husband, and her visiting mother, while hoping to find relief in daytime app sex. These stories of lust, estrangement, and self-preservation are at once hilarious and savage.
The Railway Murders
The vast majority of Britain’s railways were built between 1825 and 1900. By the turn of the nineteenth/twentieth century, over one-hundred different railway companies were operating in Britain on more than 22,000 miles of railway track. Although these new railways brought prosperity to the nation, and enabled goods and passengers to be speedily transported the length and breadth of the country for the first time, this remarkable feat of engineering brought with it some unwelcome side-effects, one of which was crime. A vast number of passengers travel on Britain’s railway network each day, and unfortunately, a considerable amount of crime does occur on our railways. The types of crime committed on Britain’s railways varies considerably from petty or minor crime, to more serious crimes. Most people would consider that the crimes of “murder” and “attempted murder” are amongst the most serious crimes committed in our country, irrespective of where these appalling acts take place. A substantial number of murders and attempted murders have taken place on the railway network of Britain, during its two-hundred years of operation, and details surrounding the vast majority of these cases are revealed in this book, some for the first time. The author has spent many months of research, mainly through old newspaper archives, in order to obtain establish and publish historical information about murders committed on Britain’s railways, many of which have been long forgotten, or lost in the annals of time.

Hey, Good Morning, How are you
Juno Isabella Flock is a dancer and performance artist who spends her days caring for her ailing husband, and her nights chatting to love scammers online. She's aware of the risks these men pose - she's watched a documentary about them - but she's also discovered a heady freedom in these online conversations, and the things they allow her to say.
When Juno meets Owen_Wilson223 - or, to use his real name, Benu - she senses an immediate connection between them, even though they're separated by thousands of miles. Gradually, they reveal more and more about themselves to each other: about their real selves, and about who they really want to be. And just as Juno sees through Benu's lies, he sees through hers too.
Hey, Good Morning, How Are You? is a whirlwind of a novel. It's about yearning to stay young while age marches on; it's about how to stay truthful while the internet changes everything; it's about love and desire in all their many, conflicting forms. And most of all, it's a novel about the way we are all connected, by the same constellations and the same night sky, however different our circumstances.
Koruna tak chladná a těžká
Naše životy už nikdy nebudou stejné. Nepřátelé mě obklopují ze všech stran. Moje koruna nikdy nebyla vzdálenější a smrt tak blízko. Uprostřed zrady, kterou jsme nemohli předvídat, udělám cokoli, abych našla cestu zpátky k Lorianovi – dřív než podlehne svému vzteku a zničí tento kontinent.
Spojenectví vznikají a rozpadají se, naši nepřátelé se sjednocují a Regnerovi pavouci se přiblížili víc než kdy dřív. Máme jedinou šanci, jak zabránit tomu, aby získal neomezenou moc a zotročil všechny lidi, víly i míšence ve čtyřech královstvích.
Mezitím král lidí věří, že jsem tu uvězněná, toužebně si přeju smrt a čekám, jestli mě nezachrání Lorian. Jenže Regner ještě nepochopil, že se nezastavím před ničím, abych svůj lid osvobodila. A ten, kdo by se měl bát, je on.

A viking fiai - Bosszú
866 TAVASZA, BRIT-SZIGETEK
A 15 éves Wulf kötéllel a nyakában áll az akasztófa alatt, amikor vikingek törnek be a faluba, és mindenkit lemészárolnak. Őt valamiért mégis életben hagyják, és magukkal viszik. Ahhoz azonban, hogy ne kelljen rabszolgasorban tengődnie élete végéig, bizonyítania kell a rátermettségét, és hasznos információkat kell adnia a szászokról. Hamarosan ugyanis rájön, hogy a falu elleni támadás nem volt véletlen: a híres viking, Ragnar Lodbrok öt fia - Vasbordájú Björn, Csonttalan Ivar, Kígyószemű Sigurd, Fehéringes Hálfdan és Ubbe - azért érkezett ide, hogy bosszút álljon apjuk feltételezett gyilkosán.
Ahogy Wulf egyre jobban megismeri a viking harcosok életét és intrikáit, éles eszének és jó megfigyelőképességének hála zavarba ejtő nyomokra bukkan. Lehet, hogy valamelyik testvér ölte meg az apjukat? És ha igen, miért? Miközben a Lodbrok-fiúk inváziója fenyegeti a vidéket, elkezdődik a versenyfutás az idővel - vajon Wulf be tudja bizonyítani, hogy ki a gyilkos, hogy ezzel megmentse magát, és megakadályozza még több ártatlan ember halálát?
A viking fiai - Bosszú izgalmas cselszövésekkel és véres harcokkal teli története Ragnar Lodbrok és fiai ősi legendáján alapul.

But as the sun comes out, so do the secrets.

Scandals, revelations and questionable decisions are guaranteed when this group of gloriously imperfect, perimenopausal and fun-loving friends reunite.
Chasing Aliens
The US government has been investigating unidentified aerial phenomena in a secret division of the Department of Defence. A former intelligence official urged the US to disclose evidence of UFOs after saying the government possesses 'intact and partially intact' alien vehicles. And what about those sightings of Tic Tac, Gimbal, Go Fast and the infamous Oumuamua?
Danny Lavelle, our charming, borderline-bewildered investigator, sets out on a road trip through America's UFO heartlands to get some answers (thankfully 41% of Americans believe aliens have made contact so he has plenty of sources to choose from). Talking to those in the know in government and the UFO scene - often the same thing - Danny follows Lue Elizondo, Jeremy Corbell, attends sky watches (sometimes falling asleep in the desert), listens to alien abductees and has coffee with Starseeds (human beings who claim to be actual aliens).
Whether he's smoking weed whilst holding dumortierite crystals to access his interdimensional past, or discussing 'space beads' with the Harvard astrophysicist who's convinced he's found evidence of alien life, Danny's journey becomes a deeper story about our unshakeable fascination with little green men - and our deepest wishes not to be alone in the universe.
The Penguin Book of Cults
A chilling documentary history of the most notorious cults of the past two thousand years, from the ancient Roman ritual sacrifices that inspired The Wicker Man all the way up to Heaven?s GateA Penguin ClassicHypnotism. Human sacrifice. Sexual perversion. Mass suicide. For millennia, people have been enthralled by graphic descriptions of terrible rites performed by the religious other. The Penguin Book of Cults compiles the most notorious and uncanny of these true accounts: salacious stories of frenzied worship by the cult of Dionysus; human sacrifices burned alive in giant wooden effigies, the inspiration for the (cult) classic movie The Wicker Man; moral panics over the hypnotic powers of yoga; early horror stories of abuse in the Mormon Church; the massacre at Jonestown, which left hundreds of bodies strewn across a foreign jungle; a church that worshipped a 1950s salesman named Bob; the bloody FBI siege of the Branch Davidians in Waco, Texas; and the mass suicide of Heaven?s Gate. Both terrible and tragic, this illuminating history of cults exposes the seductive power with which new religious movements have ensnared their followers and beguiled outsiders for generations.
