A Sirius A csillag körül keringő karneusz nem bolygó és nem aszteroida: egy hatszáz kilométer átmérőjű, kőzetbőrrel védett élőlény, amelynek testéből az emberiség évtizedek óta bányássza a különböző luxusélelmiszerek, kozmetikumok és gyógyszerek alapanyagát. A kitermelésből született meg a Venter-dinasztia multimilliárdos vállalatbirodalma és a Föld kényelmes hazugsága, hogy a karneusz nem érző lény.
Yis Venter, a család ifjú örököse a csillaghoz érkezve egy életre szóló kalandot remél: végre találkozhat a legendás űrfelfedezővel, a húsbányászatot irányító Julia Pollarddal, és bejuthat a karneusz belsejébe, ahová a legtöbb ember sosem merészkedne.
Ám nem tudja, hogy Pollardot csempészettel vádolják meg, és a családja nem látogatóba érkezik, hanem elszámoltatni a nőt. Pollard azonban nem tolvaj, és nem adja meg magát. Felismeri, hogy Yis védelmet jelenthet a számára, ezért menekülése során magával ragadja a fiút.
Miközben Yis és Pollard a karneusz egyre veszélyesebb részeibe sodródik, a húsvilág mélyén idegen szervek, makrofág ragadozók, eltűnt expedíciók és titkos bázisok mögött felsejlik egy fenyegetés, amelynek árnyékában a Föld hatalmi játszmái jelentéktelenné zsugorodnak.
Markovics Botond új regénye grandiózus sci-fi-odisszea a hús univerzumában. Egy sodró tempójú történet a felfedezés megszállottságáról, a személyes áldozatokról és egy idegen entitásról, amely talán egyfajta ítélet az egész emberiség felett.

Wolf Land
Wolf Land traces the lives of the wolves that once called Britain and Ireland home. Beginning with the Ice Age, each chapter considers a key period in the history of wolves on these islands. Describing the landscapes they traversed, their relationship with the ever-growing human population, and the ways in which humans weaved wolves throughout every aspect of their cultural lives, from literature and art to religion and politics. Building on this history, Wolf Land concludes by reflecting on the parts of this story yet to be written, asking whether wolves could once again make Britain and Ireland their home. There is no better time for understanding the complex, multifaceted ecology of wolves in Britain and Ireland. Calls for widespread nature restoration and the reintroduction of apex predators necessitate a thorough understanding of the history of this animal, as well as the reasons why the species ultimately disappeared. Only by thoroughly comprehending the past can we hope to forge a future that involves wolves. Elizabeth Marshall is an expert in historical and literary research, with extensive knowledge of wolf ethology, ecology, and reintroduction. Passionate about critically examining and tracing historical sources, Elizabeth separates fact from the (ubiquitous) fiction associated with these animals.

Behind White Picket Fences
Fusing page-turning suspense with keenly observed humor, this homage to female friendship explores the hamster wheel of modern motherhood, and the consequences for jumping off. Kiersten Cleaver feels like she’s flunking Motherhood 101. Exhausted by travel sports, homework, and her son’s dyslexia, she joins forces with her neighbors, Rosamund and Piper, to drop out of the scholastic rat race for one year. Together, they start the Beaverbrook Academy for Inquiring Minds in Kiersten’s kitchen, embarking on a journey back to the idyllic life they experienced as children, when phones were attached to the wall and kids played outside until the streetlights came on at dusk. But the women quickly realize fractions aren’t their only problem. A sixty-year-old diary discovered in Kiersten’s basement raises unsettling questions about their neighborhood, their safety, and the seemingly simpler past. Their picture-perfect suburb disguises deadly secrets—and someone wants to keep them hidden. As unsettling events rattle their fragile utopia, Kiersten, Rosamund, and Piper face an impossible choice. And if they expose the truth, they put everything at risk: their children, their friendship, and their newfound community.

Otthonról haza
Csepelyi Adrienn novelláskötetében az otthon néha egy gyerekkori emlék, egy étel közös felemlegetése, egy régi tárgy tapintása vagy egy jóindulatú szomszéd gesztusa. Máskor fájdalom vagy éppen tragikum. Mert a szülőföldet, bárhová sodorjon is bennünket az élet, az ember mindenüvé magával hurcolja.
Ezek az útközben talált történetek mindannyiunk számára ismerős terekből és helyzetekből indulnak: lakásokból, falusi utcákból, udvarokból, piacokról, lépcsőházakból, vidéki és városi emlékezetből. Legnagyobb értékük pedig, hogy őszintén és kérlelhetetlenül szembesítenek bennünket az élet törvényszerűségeivel, miközben a mélyükön mindig ott csillog az emberség, a megértés és a szerző kifogyhatatlan együttérzése.
A Heinrich Annamária illusztrációival díszített gyűjtemény Csepelyi Adrienn tízévnyi novellatermésének legjavából válogat.
,,Szilvavirágillat száll, meg-megcsap az éles szélben. A falu végén dühödt kék az ég, az összes fényt a fehér szirmokra irányították, mintha csak azt akarná megmutatni a Jóisten, mire kell koncentrálnunk a viharban.
A férfi hajnal óta ás, láttam akkor is, amikor boltba mentem tojásért. A kézfeje messziről vöröslik. A ház melletti keskeny sávban fagyközeli lehet még a levegő, hiába az aranysárga napsütés, visszafordultunk a télbe.
Biccentünk, elhaladok.
Nem ismerem. Mostanában költözhettek ide, amíg nem voltam idehaza. Ritkán jövök. Mire megjelenek, már ki is koptam a tájból, újra nyomot kell hagynom benne, hogy ne felejtsem el magam én se."
Csepelyi Adrienn 1984-ben született, és az ország keleti csücskében, a szabolcs-szatmár-beregi Penyigén nőtt fel. Kulturális újságíró, publicista, műsorvezető. Junior Prima-díjas, Népszabadság-díjas, Hüpátia-médiadíjas, a Szegénységről Méltósággal Sajtódíj különdíjasa. Belemenés címmel 2018-ban jelent meg első regénye, 2024-ben CAMPUS 15 címmel riportkönyvet írt a debreceni Campus fesztiválról.
Nagymamám magyaráz című műfajteremtő kötete - amely eredetileg családi nyelvjárásgyűjtésnek, emlékrögzítésnek indult, és amely végül kollektív emlékezetünk markáns lenyomata lett - 2025-ben jelent meg a 21. Század Kiadónál.

Lekce předstírání
Athalia Pressleyová po ničem netouží víc než po náklonnosti svého dvojčete. Od smrti jejich rodičů jí totiž Henry moc pozornosti nevěnuje – až do chvíle, kdy jí ve škole začne hrozit propadnutí a ona potřebuje doučování. To ji přivede do náruče Henryho nepřítele, univerzitního premianta Dylana. Athalia se náhle začne těšit Henryho plné pozornosti – a pokud si ji chce udržet, bude potřebovat pomoc Dylana McCarthyho Williamse.
Dylana, bratrova rivala z fotbalového týmu, Athalia zrovna dvakrát nemusí – vadí jí jeho uhlazené poznámky, sebevědomý tón i vševědoucí chování. Nepomáhá ani jeho perfektní účes, zasněné hluboké oči nebo vysportované tělo univerzitního fotbalisty. Athalia touží jen získat zpátky Henryho, a tak s Dylanem uzavřou dohodu o fejkovém randění, aby ho provokovali.
To se jim však naprosto vymkne z ruky. Účelová dohoda se postupně mění v osudovou přitažlivost plnou vtipných a dojemných situací. Z předstírané lásky se postupně zrodí láska opravdová a Athalia s Dylanem a Henrym odpočítávají vteřiny do Nového roku na velkém silvestrovském večírku…
