Stainless
Justine is a vampire. Keith just lives like one. An ex-junkie and ex-rock star, his hands mangled by his dead ex's own jealous ex, he's let go of his ambitions. It's true that Justine has been around for a few centuries and Keith barely three decades, but they're good for each other: Justine is teaching Keith to take the long view; Keith is reminding her how it feels to be alive. Yet a cohort of criminals, desperate artists, dead-enders, hangers-on, and wanna-bes, undead and otherwise, threaten their curious union. Can love stay untainted in a world of monster? irst published in 1996, Todd Grimson's Stainless is a noir fantasia, a symphony of bloody horror, and a woozy, erotic tour of night-side L.A. Outsider Classics is Dead Ink's resurrection ground for the strange, the silenced, and the outcasts. This series exhumes lost literary voices that were ahead of their time to restore them to the cult status they always deserved. From forgotten masterpieces to once-censored provocations, each title is a reaction against the canon curated for readers who want to stray into the margins and away from the mainstream.
United Reign - Egységes uralom - Valentino Empire 3
Theo
Minden, amit felépítettünk, összeomlik körülöttem. Felemészt a sötétség, a vérem forr a bosszúvágytól. A feleségem az egyetlen fény az életemben, ő az oka annak, hogy tovább küzdök. A nyomunkban vannak. És ami még rosszabb, őt vették célba. De hadd jöjjenek... várok rájuk. Készen állunk, hogy visszaküldjük mindet a pokolba, ahonnan előmásztak. Csak remélni tudom, hogy a város felkészült, mert New York még sosem látott olyan háborút, mint amilyen ez lesz.
Holly
Az életem abban a pillanatban megváltozott, amikor kereszteztük egymás útját. Jóban-rosszban. Ezt az esküt tettem. Most éppen a rossz van soron... Bárkik is az ellenségei, engem keresnek. De már nem az a jelentéktelen, szürke kisegér vagyok, aki leszállt a gépről a JFK-n. Nem adom könnyen magam. Maradok, és a férjem oldalán harcolok. Uralkodni fogunk a birodalmán. Egységben.
Prokletí lesa Grimm
Prokletí lesa Grimm je druhý díl duologie odkrývající záhady tajemného lesa Grimm. Obyvatele Grimmské Doliny sužuje strašná kletba, kterou na ně uvrhl čarovný les poté, co byla jeho magie zneužita k vraždě místního kováře. Dokud se hlavní hrdince Claře nepodaří vypátrat vraha, les ve své zlobě nepoleví. Po událostech z prvního dílu – částečném zlomení kletby – je dlouhé utrpení přerušeno krátkým obdobím naděje. Tu však velmi rychle vystřídá o to větší zklamání, když les udeří znovu a silněji. Clara s Axelem, svým milým, se tedy opět vydávají do lesa Grimm, aby rozluštili všechny záhady a zároveň se pokusili zachránit co nejvíce obyvatel vesničky, které les vtáhl a jejichž osudy proměnil v pokřivené a vražedné verze pohádek bratří Grimmů. Při čtení tak na vás čeká pořádná dávka napětí, trocha hororové atmosféry a nechybí ani romantická linka.
Domov zlatem spravený
Středoškolačka Mao žije se svou babičkou Čie, která se věnuje tradiční japonské technice kincugi – umění opravovat rozbité nádoby pomocí zlata tak, aby se staré praskliny staly jejich ozdobou.
Mao se musí brzy rozhodnout, jakým směrem se vydá, ale zatím ji svírá nejistota. Když jednoho dne v babiččině zásuvce objeví lakovanou jehlici do vlasů, spustí tím vlnu vzpomínek, která je obě zavede na cestu do minulosti. Staré křivdy, nevyřčená tajemství i slova, která už nelze vzít zpět, rozlámala lidská srdce.
A přesto, stejně jako při opravě prasklého nádobí zlatem, i z rozbitých duší může znovu vzniknout krása a naděje.

The Iliad
A timeless tale of war, pride, and the cost of glory Homer's Iliad stands as one of the greatest achievements in Western literature. Set during the final weeks of the Trojan War, the epic centres on Achilles, the Greeks' greatest warrior, whose pride and wrath threaten the fate of his comrades. As the armies of Troy and Greece clash, the poem explores the heroism and horror of battle, the bonds of friendship, and the tragic consequences of vengeance. With gods intervening at every turn and legendary figures such as Hector, Agamemnon, and Patroclus shaping the conflict, The Iliad is both a gripping war story and a profound meditation on mortality, honour, and fate. Inside the book: The dramatic conflict between Achilles and Agamemnon, and the complexities of heroismScenes of epic battles, duels, and the fall of heroes Themes of pride, wrath, honour, and the intervention of the godsModern translation and Introduction by Prof. Ian Johnston Ideal for readers drawn to epic poetry, classical history, and the enduring questions of human nature, The Iliad is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the roots of Western storytelling.

Having Spent Life Seeking
'Amazing, it really moved me... Not something I've encountered in British literary fiction before' SHON FAYE'If books can still change the world, this one most likely will' COLUM MCCANN'A scorching story of love, change, homecoming and forgiveness' DAWN FRENCHRothko Taylor has washed up with the tide, back in their hometown, Edgecliff. Fifteen years since they left it behind. The past is accelerating towards them: the skateboard kids on the high street that remind them of their teenage years, the splintered benches looking out to sea, where their mum Meg clutched her cans. The nice bit of town, where their dad Ezra tried and failed to build a happy home. And Dionne's block. Beautiful, extraordinary Dionne, the only person who had ever looked at them and seen what was there. Back then, overwhelmed and full of fear, they sank beneath the surface into chaos. But they made it out alive. And this time, Rothko is determined that things will be different. A decade since Kae Tempest's last novel, Having Spent Life Seeking is about family and forgiveness; redemption and atonement; desire and abandon; selfhood and community. This book is about things we seek when we are hiding, and what finds us, if we can let ourselves be seen.

Volání po vzpouře
Ještě včera bylo Hvězdné království Mantichora malým a bezvýznamným ostrůvkem vesmíru. Tichý a nenápadný hvězdný národ, který se teprve nedávno zotavil z ničivé rány Morových let. Možná bohatší než někteří, ale s malým potenciálem pro obchod a nemělo velkou potřebu námořnictva... a ještě menší zájem o jeho zaplacení. Mantichora se však nyní stala terčem. Hvězdné království si není jisté, kdo na něj útočí, proč, nebo co si jeho záhadný nepřítel může přát, ale královna Alžběta I. ví, že to musí zjistit. A ví, že ať už si někteří z jejích poddaných myslí cokoli, Mantichora námořnictvo potřebuje. A potřebuje spojence, přátele, jako je dynamická Republika Haven a Andermanská říše. Potřebuje jejich obchod... a učit se od jejich zkušenějších a mocnějších námořnictev. Úkolem důstojníků, jako je Travis Long a jeho žena Lisa, je tyto zkušenosti získat. Úkolem naprosto nezkušených diplomatů, jako je Travisův bratr Gavin, hrabě Winterfall, je tyto aliance budovat.
Byli vysláni do mocné Andermanské říše, aby to udělali, neboť Imperiální námořnictvo je jednou z nejmocnějších a nejzkušenějších flotil v galaxii. Andermani však mají své vlastní problémy. Smrt jejich Císaře je spouštěčem povstání a nyní je toto mocné a zkušené námořnictvo uvězněno v občanské válce.
Mantichorští návštěvníci se ocitnou přímo v cestě bouře a než Travis, Lisa a Gavin stihnou cokoli jiného, musí nejprve přežít.

Seznam podezřelých věcí
Když si policie neví rady, musí nastoupit svérázná dospívající vyšetřovatelka
Yorkshire, 1979. Premiérkou je Margaret Thatcherová, džíny do zvonu jsou právě in a dvanáctiletá Miv je přesvědčená, že její otec chce přestěhovat celou rodinu na jih. Kvůli vraždám.
Ovšem opustit Yorkshire a nejlepší kamarádku Sharon pro ni prostě nepřipadá v úvahu, bez ohledu na nebezpečí, jež číhá v okolí, nebo na podivnosti doma, které začaly v den, kdy Mivina matka přestala mluvit. Miv spřádá plán — kdyby se jí podařilo vyřešit případ sériového vraha, možná by přece jen mohli zůstat a nikam se nestěhovat…
Miv a Sharon se tedy rozhodnou sepsat seznam: seznam všech podezřelých lidí a věcí v jejich ulici. Lidí, které znají. Lidí, které neznají. Věcí, které vybočují z každodennosti. Jejich pátrání však brzy odhalí tajemství v jejich sousedství, v jejich rodinách, a dokonce mezi kamarádkami navzájem. Co když skutečná záhada, kterou musí Miv vyřešit, leží až nebezpečně blízko jí samé?
