Divná místa
Povídkový soubor Divná místa přináší šest příběhů lidí, kteří se ocitli v divném čase na divném místě.
Divným časem tu ovšem není půlnoc po Štědrém večeru nebo letní slunovrat, ale kritický čas jejich životů: krize středního věku, náhle surově zvědomělé stárnutí, domnělý profesní vrchol či naopak dlouho nepřiznávaný tvůrčí pád.
Tito lidé se v kritické životní etapě ocitají na místech se zvláštní minulostí, která se právě jim ohlásí s překvapivou intenzitou. Co zjistí historik Marek ze sto let starých novinových zpráv? Kam se ztratila Polednice, která jako stín chodívala od domu k domu, aby v hodině dvanácté brala za kliku? Ztratila se vůbec? A je podivné mlčení průvodců na zámku v Chudenicích jen povinnou hrou pro návštěvníky, kteří v ceně vstupenky automaticky očekávají obligátní porci příjemně dráždivého vzrušení?
Nem néma a többi
A kilencvenes években járunk, a rendszerváltás utáni Magyarországon. Ahogy a társadalom új alapokra helyezi a működését, úgy próbálja a kamasz Dalma is összerakni önmagát, a gyerek létből átjutni a felnőttéválás útvesztőin. És ez nem megy könnyen. A családjáról lehámló biztonság, a veszekedések, és az ikertestvérével vívott örök verseny elhiteti vele, hogy neki legfeljebb mellékszerep jut az életben.
Aztán egy szavalat félresikerült pillanatában, a recsegő mikrofon mögött egyszer csak megtörténik valami: megérzi a színpad súlyát és felszabadító erejét. Innen vezet az út egy fiatalokból álló színházba, ahol először találkozik egy közösséggel, amely egyszerre befogadó és könyörtelen. A társulat középpontja Dávid – a kiszámíthatatlan, nyers tehetségű, önmagát is felőrlő Mercutio, aki előtt senki sem tud rejtve maradni. Dalmát épp ez a figyelem emeli ki először a csendből, a fiú kemény mondatai, váratlan gyengédségei és vakmerő dühkitörései olyan tükröt tartanak elé, amelyben kénytelen meglátni saját lehetőségeit is. Ahogy közeledik a bemutató, Dávid egyre veszélyesebb sodrásba kerül, és a tehetsége mögött feltáruló önpusztító erő lassan tragikus pályát rajzol. Dalmának el kell döntenie, hagyja-e magát magával rántani, vagy kilép onnan, ahol elsodorhatnák. Felnőni számára most azt jelenti: felismerni, hogy a saját hangját csak akkor találhatja meg, ha mer elmozdulni attól, ami lehúzza.
Heap Earth Upon It
January 1965. The orphaned O'Leary siblings - Tom, Jack, Anna and Peggy - arrive in the village of Ballycrea, tight-lipped about their troubled past and desperate for a fresh start. After being met with suspicion from most of the locals, the family are thrilled when they're taken under the wing of their well-respected neighbours, Bill and Betty Nevan, who offer them work, companionship and an opportunity to fit in. But for one of the O'Learys, this new friendship sparks an intense attachment that makes the dynamic dangerous for all. It's difficult to bury secrets, but almost impossible to bury feelings... Crackling with suspense and intensity from start to finish, Heap Earth Upon It revisits the rural Ireland of Howarth's critically acclaimed debut, delving into claustrophobic relationships and tangled identities, and leaving you wondering who to trust until the very last page.
Rules for the Summer
They set rules for the summer - and broke every single one . . .
Renley Gossage has nothing but a struggling candy shop and a dream. She is determined to make it as Cape Meril's confectionary queen with no help, no shortcuts - and definitely no rich men wielding engagement rings and making things messy.
Theo Williams never thought he'd be flying across an ocean to propose to a stranger, but here he is, knocking on Renley's door with a shiny diamond. She's the one person who might be able to stop his life from falling apart, so he's here with a marriage proposal - and more importantly for Renley, a business proposal . . .
The Deal: Theo needs a wife so his stiff-upper-lipped father won't cut him off. Renley needs a financial backer, even if she's too stubborn to admit it.
The Rules: One fake engagement. One summer. Zero romance.
But between collapsing drywall, gossiping neighbours, and the chaotic schemes of Renley's aunt, their forced proximity turns into something dangerously close to real.
Except Renley can't let go of the idea that standing on her own two feet means not accepting help. And Theo's past is about to catch up with him. By the time the candy shop doors reopen, they'll have to decide if this is just a summer fling - or a happily ever after worth breaking the rules for . . .
Pursuits of Settler Belonging in Contemporary Australian Memoirs
The book focuses on various ways of articulating settler belonging in Australian memoir since the turn of the 21st century. After Australia witnessed a reinvigorated public interest in the revisionist history of European settlement and colonial violence, resulting in the dispossession of Indigenous people and damaged settler–Indigenous relations, Australian settler majority has experienced an unsettlement of their sense of belonging, or the so-called “setter anxiety.” The book analyzes how settler (un)belonging is narrativized in popular memoirs written by Australian public intellectuals, such as historians, artists, writers, and commentators, in the period after 2000. These memoirs of settler belonging share one aspect: they all ask and seek answers to the implicit question, how to belong as a White settler who bears witness to the legacy of violent colonization vis-a-vis continuing Indigenous dispossession? How to justify the settler presence in and love of the land that was stolen from First Australians? The individual chapters examine historians’ memoirs, White women’s travel narratives, experimental place-writing, and eco- and landscape memoirs, tracing a gradual shift in literary representations of settler anxiety and detecting new perspectives on what can be called ethical settler belonging.
Sisters of the Lizard
''AWESOME. MASTERFULLY EXECUTED. FREQUENTLY HILARIOUS'' Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld on The Bone RaidersFollowing The Bone Raiders comes the next thrilling new novel set in the world of the Rakada: an edge-of-your-seat, action-packed epic fantasy series, where a wild band known as the Bone Raiders harness the power of gigantic, fire-breathing lizards to defend their homeland.All Sayana wanted was to enjoy her life in the rolling grasslands of the Tapestry. After she and her fellow Rakada managed to ride humongous fire-breathing lizards to face down the Great Khan''s army, they should have been able to kick back a little for once. Not too much to ask, right? Instead, the Tapestry is in turmoil - invading armies threaten, the other raider clans are at war, and inside his fortress city of Karkorum, the Khan broods and plots. What''s more, the Rakada''s giant lizards are getting sick, and they have no idea how to cure them. If they die, there''s no telling what might happen to the Tapestry. But then the Rakada receive a vision - apparently from the gods. A deep emerald pool surrounded by bone-white sands - one that may be able to heal their lizards. With no other option, the raiders set out on an epic quest across the mountains and into the desert. But the danger that awaits them will be one greater than they''ve ever faced before. These guys really can''t catch a break.Praise for the Rakada novels:''A ton of fun. The premise is awesome, the found-family dynamic is masterfully executed, the dialogue is wicked-sharp and frequently hilarious'' Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld''Ford begins this new series with quirky characters, loads of great action sequences, and his trademark brand of humour'' Booklist''The Bone Raiders is a relentlessly cheeky, ofttimes unserious, and undisputedly rip-roaring bit of fantasy that can only be written by Jackson Ford. Badass female protagonists, found family, and giant lizards - what more do you need? Add this one to your TBR. I fully guarantee you''ll be entertained'' FanFiAddict

***
Three hearts. One consuming fire.
Julian Kade hates everyone. But when a power outage traps him in a Paris elevator with sharp-tongued chef Freya Kapoor and charming street fighter Archer Wilde, an unexpected spark ignites between them. By the end of the twelve hours that follow, they've shared their darkest desires…and formed a bond none of them could have expected.
Freya Kapoor has dreams, and getting sidetracked by two billionaires wasn't part of her careful plan. But when the two men who've begun to dominate her body and mind present Freya with a chance to open the restaurant of her dreams, boundaries quickly blur…and her orderly world gets increasingly complicated.
Archer Wilde never thought he'd stop fighting long enough to get tangled up with two very different people. Yet the three of them fit together like nothing before, unlocking hidden desires they never knew they craved. But beneath the perfect façade are three individuals battling demons of their own. Ultimately, as passion deepens into something far more dangerous, Freya, Julian, and Archer will have to choose whether they're willing to risk everything they've built for a love as fierce as it is free.

All the Pretty Girls
In a thrilling series from New York Times bestselling author J.T. Ellison, a serial killer is targeting young women across the South, and each new kill comes with a grisly clue pointing to the next victim. When a young woman is found dead just outside of Nashville, strangled and handless, homicide lieutenant Taylor Jackson is quick to the scene. So is FBI Special Agent John Baldwin, whose presence suggests that the murder is not the work of a random opportunist. A love poem left nearby alludes to something more sinister: This is the work of the “Southern Strangler,” a serial killer terrorizing women from Louisiana to Virginia. It’s the kind of case Jackson thrives on. At thirty-five, Metro Nashville’s youngest lieutenant is still an idealist, hell-bent on protecting the city she calls home. And she’s determined to avoid the broken, lonely path she’s seen other cops take. But while she and Baldwin share more than a working relationship, she’s not ready to go public. With victims across multiple states, Jackson and Baldwin race to find a pattern before the killer strikes again. But then a shocking connection between the Strangler and a local reporter brings them closer to the truth behind the killer’s identity—one that could unveil a family’s darkest secrets. Revised edition: This edition of All the Pretty Girls includes editorial revisions.

The Peloponnesian War
''The greatest historian that ever lived''Such was Macaulay''s verdict on Thucydides (c. 460-400 BC) and his history of the Peloponnesian War, the momentous struggle between Athens and Sparta as rival powers and political systems that lasted for twenty-seven years from 431 to 404 BC, involved virtually the whole of the Greek world, and ended in the fall of Athens. Thucydides himself was a participant in the war; to his history he brings an awesome intellect, brilliant narrative, and penetrating analysis of the nature of power, as it affects both states and individuals.Of his own work Thucydides wrote: ''I shall be content if [my history] is judged useful by those who will want to have a clear understanding of what happened - and, such is the human condition, will happen again ... It was composed as a permanent legacy, not a showpiece for a single hearing.'' So it has proved. Of the prose writers of Greece and Rome Thucydides has had more lasting influence on western thought than all but Plato and Aristotle. This new edition combines a masterly translation with comprehensive supporting material. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Temné sily 1: Rana do srdca
Cameron Mortem má problém – nedokáže prestať zabíjať svojich partnerov. Napriek tomu, že je vyhlásený za klinicky šialeného, je zároveň aj najlepšou zbraňou v arzenáli Temných síl, utajenej vojenskej zložky vybudovanej na poslušnosti, mlčanlivosti a snahe prežiť. Po tom, čo ho experimentálny liek pripravil o rozum, Cameron sa stal rizikom aj pre svojich vlastných. Za trest ho pošlú na výcvikové skúšky, kde sa z nováčikov stávajú nemilosrdní vojaci. Cameronova hlavná úloha? Udržať svoju novú partnerku nažive.
Emery Mavesová unikla trestu smrti len o vlások, namiesto toho sa však ocitá na mieste rovnako bezcitnom, ako boli jej zločiny. Keď ju pridelia ku Cameronovi, musí prežiť nielen tvrdý výcvik, ale aj svojho nevyspytateľného partnera.
Čoskoro si však Emery uvedomí, že Cameron je viac než len psychicky labilný zabijak. Pod vrstvou šialenstva sa ukrýva nebezpečná príťažlivosť – a zvláštna, nečakaná jemnosť.
Ich puto je chaotické, opojné a zrodené z násilia. A pokiaľ ich najprv oboch nezničí, môže sa stať tým jediným, čo ich zachráni.
Ponorte sa do hriešne temného príbehu od autorky bestselleru Zabudni na mňa.
