The Knight Watch
A thousand years ago, the Knights of the Round Table made an oath to protect the realm forevermore. It's safe to say they didn't think it all the way through. Now Britain is embroiled in the Second World War, and the knights are still fighting the enemies of the realm. They're also fighting each other - Kay and Lancelot haven't spoken since Agincourt, and everyone wishes Agravain would stop speaking entirely. Isolde - known in myth and legend for her tragic romance with the knight Tristan - is fed up with her tragic reputation. In a time when women have more freedom than ever before, she's determined to strike out on her own. But when she discovers old enemies working alongside the Nazis, she realises she can't fight all of them by herself. It might be time to get the old band back together . . . From the Sunday Times bestselling Thomas D. Lee comes this sharp and witty caper, asking what happens when knights in armour return to fix the problems of a more modern world . . .
By the River's Edge
The decades-long manhunt for a serial killer takes a stunning turn in a haunting and harrowing true crime shocker by Gregg Olsen, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of If You Tell. In 1990 in Washington state, the bodies of Yolanda Sapp, Nickie Lowe, and Kathy Brisbois were found on the banks of the Spokane River. They were part of a close-knit alliance of sex workers whose oath to protect each other was, in the end, hopeless. For twenty-two years their brutal murders went unsolved. In 2012, a DNA cold hit pointed to Douglas Perry. A repeat assault offender, Douglas was currently incarcerated in Carswell, Texas. But there was a twist: The facility was for female prisoners. The man authorities hunted for decades was now Donna Perry. Her gender reassignment not only helped to mask the evil deeds of the past, it ended a life of childhood traumas and a pent-up rage unleashed on nearly thirty victims, according to Donna herself. Through total reinvention, she believed she’d finally slayed the monster within. By the River’s Edge is the astonishing true story of an elusive serial killer, an escape plan like no other, and the women who lived and died on the fringes of the Lilac City for whom justice was at long last served.

Dante - Éldekorált kiadás
Éldekorált kiadás
Anya mindig azt mondta, ne játsszak a tűzzel. Azonban, ha Dante Moretti maga a láng, én el akarok égni vele.
Gyűlölöm Dante Morettit!
Kegyetlen és könyörtelen. Bármi áron eléri céljait, még ha az emberéletekbe kerül is. Ha valaki vét ellene, nincs bocsánat. Olyan gonosz, hogy az ördög elbújhat mellette. De én nem ezért gyűlölöm.
Hanem azért, mert elvette tőlem az egyetlen dolgot, ami ebben a keserves világban még megmaradt nekem - a szabadságomat. Magához láncolt egy olyan adósság miatt, ami nem is az enyém.
Szerencsétlenségemre a testvérem az, aki tartozik neki.
Most azonban Dante aranykalitkájának foglya vagyok, és az egyetlen választásom: a szökés. Megpróbálom. Komolyan megpróbálom. De Dante Moretti mindenütt ott van.
Fojtogató a jelenléte. Mindent felemészt. Megrészegít.
Ő maga az ellentmondás. A szíve olyan hideg, mint a jég, de a szenvedélye forró, akár a tűz.
Miért képes úgy belelátni a lelkembe, ahogy eddig soha senki más? Miért kezd hevesen dobogni a szívem attól, ha csak egymáshoz érünk?
The Fallen and the Kiss of Dusk - A bukottak és az alkonyat csókja
A szerelmükért küzdenek. De vajon meddig mennek el érte?
Mische meghozta a végső áldozatot, hogy megmenthesse azokat, akiket szeret - és örök éjszakába taszította a világot. Asar pedig most, hogy az istenek fogságába esett és a bosszú megszállottja lett, kétségbeesetten keresi kedvesét. Amikor egy istennő felajánlja nekik a végső utat a megváltáshoz, és vissza egymáshoz, Asar és Mische rendkívüli küldetésre indulnak. Meg kell szerezniük a Halál istenének hatalmát, hogy Asar végrehajtsa a lehetetlent: valódi isteni létbe emelkedjen.
Útjuk halandó és halhatatlan birodalmakon keresztül vezet, ahol régi barátaikkal és könyörtelen ellenségeikkel egyaránt találkoznak. De miközben az alvilág az összeomlás szélén áll, és az istenek háborúra készülnek, Asarnak és Mische-nek el kell döntenie, mit hajlandók feláldozni a hatalomért, hogy szembeszálljanak a halállal.
Azonban a bosszúálló istenek és ősi árulások játékában vannak olyan adósságok, amelyeket talán még a szerelem sem képes megfizetni.
Dni
Etela Farkašová prináša texty, ktoré sú vo viacerých ohľadoch iné ako prevládajúci trend: pozornosť obracajú na bytosti stojace v úzadí, nevíťazné, nevyhrávajúce v životných bojoch, nezapadajúce do ideálu dnešných sebaistých a úspešných, dokonca na bytosti niečím vychýlené, „mimo normy“.
Novela DNI ponúka umelecky presvedčivo spracovaný príbeh matky a jej mentálne postihnutého syna, ide o nesmierne silný vzťah zachytený na pozadí ich každodenného života, do ktorého vstupuje množstvo problémov, starostí, ale aj nehy, lásky, spolupatričnosti… Dôležitou súčasťou prózy sú reflexie zmyslu či hodnoty ľudského života v kontexte súčasnosti zdôrazňujúcej najmä ekonomicky efektívne vonkajšie výkony. DNI popri vybrúsenom štýle charakterizuje myšlienková hĺbka i jemná lyrickosť.
„Keď sme sa približovali k domu, ozval sa, ma-ma, aj ja som na-še sl-nieč-ko?
Zaskočilo ma to, a keď som, s hrčou, ktorá mi pri jeho otázke naskočila v krku, hneď nereagovala, zopakoval to ešte raz, aj Fe-dor…?
Napokon som dostala zo seba strohé, pravdaže si, pravdaže aj ty… že sa pýtaš…
Po chvíli sa nanovo ohlásil, ma-ma, ale tete si to ne-po- -ve-da-la, pre-čo si ne-po-ve-da-la, že aj Fe-dor…
Prehltla som naprázdno, a on pokračoval, pre-čo si, ma-ma…“

Za tajemstvím Moravského krasu
Moravský kras je známý hlavně svými jeskyněmi, z nichž mnohé jsou díky zpřístupnění oblíbeným cílem výletů. Každý slyšel o světoznámé propasti Macocha a pověsti, která se k ní váže. Ne každý ovšem zná dějiny objevů těchto míst. Můžeme parafrázovat slova známého básníka: jsou možná jeskyně rozsáhlejší a propasti hlubší, avšak k žádným z nich se neváže tolik starých a vzájemně si protiřečících historických zpráv. Skutečně, jen stěží bychom našli krajinu, kterou tolik prolínají různé legendy. Nejen ty staré, ale i z posledních staletí. Vyznat se v nich vyžaduje rozsáhlou znalost původních pramenů i různých nezapsaných podání.
Území Moravského krasu náleželo různým organizacím a střetávaly se tu badatelské skupiny příliš vyhraněných zájmů a různých národností. Za takové situace vznikal novodobý (jeskyňářsko-objevitelský) folklór, který odsunul do pozadí ten tradiční, týkající se středověkých hradů, loupeživých rytířů, hladomoren a zaniklých dědin. I jimi se ovšem kniha zabývá, stejně jako současnými atrakcemi a turistickými cíli. Málokdo ví, že tu měl začátkem 19. století vzniknout podobný park jako v prostoru mezi Lednicí a Valticemi, nebo že se v kryptě pod křtinským poutním kostelem našly podobně pomalované lebky, jaké jsou k vidění v jedné kapličce v rakouské Solné komoře. Anebo že se tu v minulém století odehrál jeden z nejhroznějších mordů na našem území.
Moravský kras, do počátku 20. století nazývaný Moravské Švýcarsko, zkrátka nemá jen jeskyně, byť nelze popřít, že je známý a navštěvovaný převážně kvůli nim. I proto je o něj dodnes takový zájem. Tak neváhejte a vstupte, Moravský kras vás očekává.
