Krotitelia entropie
Krotitelia entropie je sci-fi román o svete, kde stroje už dávno vyhrali nie tie z kremíka, ale tie z papiera, procesných máp a paragrafov. Ľudia sú ich pohyblivé časti. Neviditeľná architektúra v rádiových vlnách, ku ktorej už dávno niekto má kľúče. Niektorí si zvolili paralelné cesty. Budovali komunity v priestoroch pod rozlišovacou schopnosťou strojov. Objavili, že koherencia mozgových vĺn je trénovateľný zmysel, že vedomie je škála a ľudská myseľ len jeden z jej tvarov. Kniha o krotení entropie. O tom, akú daň si to pýta a aké dvere otvára.
Getting Away With Murder
Jill and Ted adore their New York brownstone the way others adore their children. They have carefully, expensively, made every inch of it their own. It reflects who they are, their status and tastes. With the grand mahogany staircase and state-of-the-art kitchen, it is the stuff of glossy magazines and real-estate dreams. It is their sanctuary.
So when Ted's inheritance runs out and he makes a bad investment, they panic. How can they protect their beloved home and enviable lifestyle?
The answer is obvious. Or at least, it is obvious to Jill and Ted. The death of one wealthy family member could solve all their problems. Together, they will get away with murder.
As long as they trust each other.
And as long as there are no surprises . . .
The new twisty and playfully addictive 2026 thriller from the No.1 Sunday Times bestselling 'queen of page-turners', author of She Didn't See it Coming and The Couple Next Door.
The Call to the Far Shore
How to care for the dying for their healing, ours, and the world’s• Explores how to carry our loved ones through death, how to honor their bodies and spirits, and how to awaken to the ever-present help of our ancestors• Reveals the healing and closure that can be brought about through the process of washing and preparing a body for a home vigil or funeral• Offers guidance on advance care planning, grieving, and forgiveness as well as green burialHaving become disconnected from the natural cycles of life, we have lost the fundamental knowing of what death looks like, and fear fills the void. How can we transform our fears surrounding death and be with the dying more fully and more consciously?Through her work with the dying, Nancy MacMillan reveals the very real imaginal world where nature, myth, dreams, ancestors, and those yet to be born whisper from the far shore, a place beyond our last breath. She reminds us that caring for our dying consciously is a transformative act, radical even, in restoring meaning to our place and purpose in the universe. She explores how to carry our loved ones through death, how to honor their bodies and spirits, and how to awaken to the ever-present help of our ancestors. She shows how the practice of caring for the dead can help both those grieving and the newly dead, and she reveals how healing and closure can be brought about through the process of washing and preparing a body for a home vigil or funeral—a ritual she provided for her own mother.Sharing personal stories, Nancy offers guidance on advance care planning, grieving, and forgiveness as well as green burial. Through her own close encounters with the specter of death, the author shows how to follow the ancient wisdom of "learning to die before you die" and find a seaworthy passage to the far shore.

A titánok és az új istenek, az Olümposz urai készülnek a végső összecsapásra. Mivel szülei a vesztes oldalra álltak, Hekaté anyjával együtt menekülni kényszerül.

Végül felfedi valódi képességeit, és istennői rangra emelkedik, ám rá kell ébrednie, hogy még a leghatalmasabb olümposziak is rettegnek tőle. Amikor azonban egy újabb háború előszele azzal fenyeget, hogy mindent elsöpör az Olümposz hegyvonulataitól egészen az Alvilágig, a boszorkányság és a fekete mágia istennője az egyetlen, aki véget vethet a halálos küzdelemnek…
„Csodálatos! Ez a mitológia színtiszta esszenciája, ékkőként tündöklő prózába csomagolva.” – Luna McNamara, a Pszükhé és Erósz szerzője –
„Ez a vad feminizmussal átitatott újragondolása egy kevésbé ismert istennő történetének az elejétől a végéig sistereg a mágiától.” – Kirkus – Engedd, hogy Hekaté hangja vezessen végig az Alvilágon!

Nursing Aids at War
Nursing Aids at War: The Australian Army Medical Women's Service in the Second World War explores the chronological history of the Australian Army Medical Women's Service (AAMWS) and challenges our understanding of servicewomen and gendered work in the Australian Army. Arranged in three parts, the book first introduces the nursing aid and how the Voluntary Aid Detachments (VADs) became intertwined with the nursing service in the First and Second World Wars. It then investigates disruptions, tensions and controversies faced by the VAD as they transitioned into the AAMWS; in particular, the training schemes for AAMWS to become professionally trained nurses in military hospitals. Lastly, the book explores and challenges representations and reflections of the VAD and AAMWS, including building a national identity separate to practising nurses, and acknowledging their history as largely being forgotten amongst discussion of Australia's wider military history.

Six Minutes to Winter (Paperback)
The world is currently closer to superpower conflict than at any time since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. World War III is a real possibility, and with 12,000 warheads in the arsenals of more than half a dozen countries, we are standing on a nuclear knife edge.
Despite receiving very little attention, nuclear war is a far greater threat to humanity's immediate survival than climate change. While climate heating threatens humanity over many decades, nuclear war could destroy civilisation in just a few hours. A major missile exchange would mean months of near-total darkness, followed by a decade-long global nuclear winter that would destroy most life on Earth. Virtually everyone would starve in the resulting worldwide famine, and there would be no reliable refuge.
We are sleepwalking to Armageddon. There are no mass marches, no COPs, no nuclear Greta. But the climate experience teaches us that ignoring a problem is no solution, and that a worldwide mobilisation can work. Six Minutes to Winter presents an unflinching view of the nuclear nightmare, but also describes how weapons can be taken off hair-trigger alert and ultimately abolished altogether. If human civilisation is to survive long term, we have no alternative.
Spisovatelia za mrežami
Kniha Spisovatelia za mrežami (2026) zaznamenáva osudy slovenských literátov, prekladateľov a novinárov, ktorí boli v 50. rokoch minulého storočia väznení. Boli medzi nimi špičkoví spisovatelia, ďalší predstavovali akýsi stredný prúd vtedajšej literatúry, ale uväznení boli aj mladí ľudia, ktorí nemali ani dvadsať rokov a tvoriť začali až po prepustení z väzenia. Približne päťdesiat spisovateľov bolo spolu za mrežami vyše dvesto rokov - medzi nimi odporcovia komunistického režimu, ale aj jeho vysokí funkcionári.
Ariol 3: Svinsky dobrý kamoš

Everyone else seems to be making it, rival bands, ex-bandmates, his old band manager, even the record shop where he once worked has become famous. Andy fears he’ll never escape the day job to live his daydream. But he also knows that in music, there’s always tomorrow.

Earth 7
An exhilarating, wildly inventive tour de force of love, humanity and the end of the world as we know it.
Two women, one raised in near solitude in a research pod in the depths of the ocean and one a luxury-resort bartender who may or may not be a robot, fall in love, cross deserts, gaze at the stars – and try not only to hold onto one another but together, possibly, salvage some trace of planet Earth.
Heartbreaking, mind-expanding, soaring with beauty, Earth 7 is at once a love letter to the world and a portrait of its slow disappearance. It’s about love and grief, microbiology and astrophysics, robots and planet Mars, and humanity in all its greatness, absurdity and distress. Welding the deeply human to the thrillingly strange, fizzing with intelligence and profoundly moving, it is the novel we need right now, and for all times.
