World of Warcraft – Dědictví stínů 2: Nexus
BLIZZARD ENTERTAINMENT představuje World of Warcraft: Nexus, strhující pokračování World of Warcraft: Draci Outlandu a zároveň napínavý závěr událostí, které započaly v mezinárodním bestselleru Warcraft: Sluneční studna! Dobrosrdečná, avšak poněkud ukvapená modrá dračice Tyrygosa a člověk Jorad Mace, paladin, který se snaží znovu navázat pouto se Světlem, vybojovali v trilogii Warcraft: Sluneční studna vítěznou bitvu v Přízračných zemích. Podařilo se jim totiž zabránit nemrtvé Pohromě v získání mocných energií Sluneční studny. Velkolepé dobrodružství Tyri a Jorada tím však ani zdaleka neskončilo. Oba byli vtaženi do Temného portálu, který je přenesl na rozbitý svět Outland, kde se setkali se skupinou záhadných stvoření, jaká dosud nikdy neviděli: s nehmotnými přízračnými draky. Ragnok Bloodreaver, jeden z původních rytířů smrti, letku přízračných draků zotročil a teď s nimi a armádou felových orků směřuje k Temnému portálu… odkud hodlá začít brutálně dobývat Outland. Ale pokud padne Outland, nebude brzy čekat stejný osud i Azeroth? Jorad, jenž se snaží dosáhnout vykoupení, kolem sebe shromáždí Zlomené draeneie a varuje Alianci před nadcházejícím Ragnokovým útokem. Zároveň se pokouší ochránit Tyri, aby nepodlehla Ragnokově nadvládě… World of Warcraft: Nexus přináší ohromující závěr cesty Jorada a Tyri a nabízí také překvapivá odhalení ohledně modré dračí letky. Epická manga, kterou napsal autor bestsellerů Richard A. Knaak a nakreslil mezinárodně uznávaný Jae-Hwan Kim, rovněž odhaluje šokující detaily o původu přízračných draků a jejich spojitost s Deathwingem, zkaženým Dračím Aspektem, zodpovědným za zničující události z World of Warcraft datadisku Cataclysm.
An Accident of Dragons: Deluxe Stenciled Edges
An unlikely lord finally meets a problem he can't flirt his way out of in this adventurous and slyly light-hearted queer cozy fantasy featuring pirates, dragons, kidnapping, tea, and other high-fantasy delights for readers of Rebecca Thorne, TJ Klune, Sarah Beth Durst, and Travis Baldree.
Deluxe Limited Edition Paperback with Stenciled Edges!
In theory, the dragoness of Summer can make any resident on her island the ruler, if the previous Lord Summer is so careless as to die without an heir. In practice, absolutely no one expected her to choose Teddy, the last lord's middle-aged fancy man. With his quick wit, heaps of charisma, and excellent dress sense, Teddy brings plenty of virtues to his new role, but statecraft, pedigree, and decorum are not among them. That's all right: he's done his duty to the island, and his five-year-old daughter, Zinnia, will make a brilliant Lady Summer when her time comes.
Except when a ship of desperate mainlander thieves arrives, Zinnia's caught in the fracas and taken hostage. Teddy jumps into the rescue mission without delay, even though his days of adventures on the mainland are long buried with his lover. But his sailors have never seen their destination, and worse, the hard-liner admiral who leads them thinks Teddy's a worthless dandy. Against a conniving robber baron, a sorceress who's tamed her own dragon, and ordinary people with everything to lose, the crew faces terrible odds. But with all he loves in danger, Teddy must prove there's more to him than he'd ever intended to show.

The White Cat´s Divine Scratching Post, Vol. 2
THE CAT'S OUT OF THE BAG
Knowing that his beautiful master, Qingtong, is actually the spirit cat he pampered in his previous life, Mo Tianliao wants to get back to doting on his precious kitty! Oh, to be brushing his lovely hair, feeding him delicious treats, spoiling him all over again, and maybe even...a kiss or two? No? Claws to the face instead? Well, that's fine. After all, the most essential thing is healing the damage to Qingtong's divine soul, and that won't be as simple as providing tender loving care.
To help his master, Mo Tianliao needs an elixir made from the rare Jadefruit, which only grows on a single tree. A tree that just so happens to be the property of a rival cultivation sect, one that views spirit beasts like Qingtong as valuable commodities to be bought and sold.
With his unmatched mastery of artifacts and arrays, Mo Tianliao may be able to steal the priceless fruit with his skills alone. But, as they infiltrate the Liuyun Sect, he and Qingtong risk revealing their own sect's greatest secret: that all its highest-ranked cultivators are actually spirit beasts in human form!

Political Philosophy
How to understand a long-standing puzzle in political philosophy: the relationship between justice and legitimacyCan laws be unjust and yet remain, in some sense, morally legitimate? In this book, Jonathan Quong considers central issues in political philosophy through the lens of this single question. He explores and evaluates recent influential work on this topic and then proposes a novel approach of his own. The puzzle at the heart of his account is the phenomenon of legitimate injustice—laws and policies that are substantively unjust yet may be legitimately imposed by government officials. How can such laws be legitimate if, as some have argued, justice is the first virtue of social institution? uong analyzes the work of those who deny that injustice committed by states can be legitimate simply by virtue of its democratic or procedural pedigree; the Kantian account of legitimate institutions and justice; instrumental approaches to political legitimacy; and the recent wave of work in democratic theory focused on its egalitarian character. Arguing that these analyses do not offer an adequate solution to the puzzle and that there are compelling reasons to revise or reject them, Quong lays out his view and explains the implications for more general theories of political morality. He argues that we can explain legitimate injustice by appeal to distributive justice. If political disagreement is inevitable, then unjust legislation is largely unavoidable; it constitutes a burden that must be distributed according to just principles. Quong’s novel and illuminating framework offers a unique introduction to crucial questions in political philosophy.
