Atmoszféra
Joan Goodwin gyerekkora óta a csillagok bűvöletében él.
A csendes, elmélyült nő a Rice Egyetem fizika- és csillagászattan-oktatójaként és a koraérett Frances nagynénjeként elégedett az életével. Egészen addig, amíg rá nem bukkan egy hirdetésre, amiben először keresnek női tudósokat a NASA űrsiklóprogramjához. Joannak ettől fogva minden vágya bekerülni azon kevesek közé, akik feljuthatnak az űrbe. Miután 1980 nyarán több ezer jelentkező közül őt is beválasztják az űrhajósjelöltek kivételes csapatába, megkezdi a kiképzést a houstoni Johnson Űrközpontban.
Míg az újonnan verbuválódott csapat tagjai az első repülésükre készülnek, Joan olyan érzéseket tapasztal meg, amikről korábban nem is tudta, hogy léteznek. Egy elsöprő szerelem alapjaiban kérdőjelez meg mindent, amit addig tudni vélt a világegyetemben betöltött helyéről.
Ám 1984 decemberében, az STS-LR9 küldetésen egy pillanat alatt megváltozik minden…
Egy lebilincselő, felemelő és megrendítő regény bátorságról, önazonosságról és a szeretet mindent átalakító erejéről… ezúttal a csillagok között.

Daggermouth - The Heart Duology 1
He Is Her Ruin. She Is His Rebellion.
The first thing you'll learn in New Found Haven is mercy no longer exists. Showing mercy is a weakness, and weakness will get you killed.
The second thing is this-the Veyra are always watching. From the highest glass atrium in the Heart to the windowless slum dens of the Boundary, no movement goes unseen.
The last lesson is the hardest, but you must remember it.
Love outside of your ring is a death sentence.
The city is carved into rings of privilege and poverty, ruled by the masked elite who will do whatever it takes to hold onto power.
Obedience is demanded. Rebellion is crushed.
Greyson Serel has spent his life caught between two worlds. Publicly, he's the flawless heir to the presidency. Privately, he's entangled in secrets that could topple the regime. But when he's forced into a political marriage meant to bind him tighter to the governments brutal laws, he finds himself shackled to a bride who is as lethal as she is unwilling.
Shadera is a mercenary raised to kill, not to wed. Yet when her bullet misses its mark, survival leaves her bound to the very man she was sent to eliminate. Trapped inside the corrupt heart of the city, she becomes both prisoner and wife, her every step watched, her every move tested.
Their union is no love story-It's a battlefield. As secrets come to light and betrayals fester within the walls of power, Greyson and Shadera must decide between annihilating one another or burning the city to the ground together.
In a world where passion sparks rebellion and loyalty is paid for in blood, their forced bond may be the spark that ignites a revolution. Or the fire that consumes them both.
DAGGERMOUTH is a dark dystopian romance perfect for readers who love true enemies to lovers, The Hunger Games, marriage of inconvenience, The Handmaid's Tale, rise of the oppressed, and political intrigue that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Etika mezikulturního a mezináboženského dialogu
Lidské jednání je spoluutvářeno teoretickými koncepty a názorovým systémem, který stojí v pozadí konkrétních etických postojů. Studie se soustředí na problematiku mezikulturního a mezináboženského soužití a zkoumá, co v této oblasti může nabídnout teologie a její pohled na některé podstatné společenské otázky (obavy z proměn společnosti, kulturní a náboženské rozrůzněnosti, migrace). Autorka vymezuje v teologické perspektivě základní pojmy a paradigmata pro interpretaci vztahů mezi různými kulturami (kultura, náboženství, multikulturalita, interkulturalita, dialog) a zkoumá vliv klíčových kategorií křesťanské epistemologie (trojičně-christologická výpověď o transcendenci, práce s reciprocitou a diferencí ve vztahu, kategorie agapé a kenósis) na utváření etických pravidel mezikulturního a mezináboženského dialogu.
Nikdo na palubě

O tři týdny později se však idyla mění v noční můru. Cameronovi se neozývají, kapitán ignoruje rádiové volání a loď je nakonec nalezena u pobřeží Floridy.
Zcela opuštěná.
Kam zmizela celá rodina? Co se během plavby odehrálo? A jaká tajemství ukrývají naleštěné paluby? Román Nikdo na palubě je mrazivý thriller, který se odehrává v rytmu vln a postupného odhalování pravdy. Co je pro rodinu nebezpečnější? Rozbouřený oceán, nebo oni sami?
The End of the Vodka
A Frida Kahlo painting, a scandal, and secrets that threaten to change the course of historyIn 1938, showgirl-turned-socialite Dorothy Hale falls from a Manhattan skyscraper. Her friend Clare Boothe Luce – writer, diplomat and rising political figure – commissions Frida Kahlo to paint a memorial portrait. Months later, reporting from Europe, Clare encounters the Duchess of Windsor in Paris and begins to question what really happened that night. In New York, Frida, estranged from Diego Rivera, wrestles with betrayal, ambition and the demands of her art. As she works on the painting that will become one of her most unsettling, she edges closer to the truth. At the heart of this novel lies a real-life mystery: was Dorothy Hale’s death an act of despair, or something far more dangerous, entangled with the power struggles shaping the modern world?
Liliana the Strong
'A match made in picture-book heaven' – The TimesA brilliantly funny collaboration between superstar creators, Quentin Blake and Emma Chichester Clark, about a tiny girl with superhuman strength. Liliana wears her super power lightly, using it to help others in a crisis. A resilient child, she thinks nothing of single-handedly rescuing a highland cow stuck in the mud, or of stopping an out-of-control steamroller in its tracks, or of throwing a beached whale back out to sea. Written by Quentin Blake and with beautiful, detailed, humorous illustrations by the award-winning Emma Chichester Clark, Liliana the Strong is the perfect gift for any child who needs a little reminder that everything will be okay.
Az önmagadba vetett hit ereje
Mi történik akkor, amikor nincs senki, aki higgyen benned - csak te magad?
Az önmagadba vetett hit ereje - Amikor senki sem hisz benned egy mélyen személyes, igaz történetekre épülő könyv, amely azt vizsgálja, hogyan válhat az önmagunkba vetett hit életünk legfontosabb belső támaszává. Halasi Éva Thea saját életútján keresztül mesél azokról az időszakokról, amikor nem volt védőháló, nem volt biztos kapaszkodó, mégis újra és újra a belső hívásra hallgatva lépett tovább.
Egyedül megtett utazások, lehetetlennek tűnő szakmai és életbeli váltások, idegen országok, nyelvek és kultúrák tárulnak elénk - valamint az a folyamat, amikor az ember elveszíti, majd tudatosan újra felépíti az önmagába vetett hitét. A könyv nem kínál kész recepteket vagy hangzatos ígéreteket, helyette őszinte felismeréseket, megélt tapasztalatokat és csendes, mély erejű tanulságokat ad át.
Ez a kötet többek között azokhoz szól, akik életük fordulópontján állnak, akik egyedül érzik magukat az útjukon, vagy szeretnének visszatalálni belső stabilitásukhoz. Finom emlékeztető arra, hogy nem a körülményeink határoznak meg bennünket.
Spider-Man: Miles Morales
Explore the Stories Behind the LegendsFirst introduced in 2011 by Brian Michael Bendis and Sara Pichelli, Miles Morales reconceived Spider-Man as African American and Latinx, and his debut marked a new direction in the saga of a beloved character. Miles Morales as Spider-Man is a coming-of-age tale of a smart, affable teen coming into his power. From his reluctance to becoming a super hero to his desire to help others, to the rocky balance between his school life and super hero responsibilities, Miles is always at the precipice of making tough decisions—choices whose consequences are as weighted in his personal life as they often are for the survival of the world. Illustrated with full-color art, Ytasha L. Womack’s entry in the Marvel Age of Comics looks at the hugely successful reimagining of one of the most popular super hero characters of all time.
Invitation to Faith
In a world where life’s problems can feel overwhelming, how can we live with peace of min? o you ever wonder:• Why doesn’t life go the way I want?• What awaits us after death?• If God or Buddha exists, why do wars and disasters still occur?“Life is a workbook of problems to be solved,” teaches Ryuho Okawa—renowned spiritual leader and best-selling author. Just as the lotus blooms beautifully in muddy water, we too can allow our inner flower to blossom, no matter the hardships we face. God or Buddha never burdens us with a load heavier than we can bear. The path to enlightenment involves not only attaining wisdom by solving life’s problems but also cultivating a selfless, pure love for others—grounded in the knowledge that this world is not the only world, and that life continues beyond death. This transparent, unconditional love reflects the teachings of Hermes, the Greek god of prosperity and mysticism, who taught that true love should be as pure and transparent as the wind, asking nothing in return. Bridging the Eastern Buddhist path of enlightenment with the selfless love of Western Hermetic thought, Invitation to Faith presents a contemporary, universal faith—one that unites belief in a higher power with daily self-improvement. It encourages us to live in a world of Truth, goodness, and beauty.

Ninety-Three
A new translation by David Bellos of the last great novel by France's greatest novelist
In the turmoil of the French Revolution, the year 1793 represented the peak of bloody revolutionary violence. Victor Hugo plunges into this tumultuous period with a story of courage and betrayal across the political classes. As the revolution rages, three characters - a nobleman turned revolutionary, a devoted mother, and a zealous commander - find their fates intertwined in a struggle that tests their convictions and loyalties. Hugo's last great novel was also his most political and prophetic - and is the equal of Les Misérables in drama, emotion, adventure and sacrifice.
