Kráľovstvo hriechov 3: Lakomstvo
Mal ju, stratil ju... a urobí čokoľvek, aby ju získal späť
Túžil mať viac a napokon stratil jedinú osobu, ktorá ho milovala.
Je vplyvný, žiadaný a ambiciózny. Dominic Davenport má vysoké postavenie, množstvo peňazí, majetok a krásnu manželku. Napriek tomu, že by mohol míňať do konca života, nemá nikdy dosť.
Láskavá, inteligentná a ohľaduplná Alessandra Davenportová bola väčšinu manželstva ako kúpený nábytok – kým manžel budoval impérium, na ňu sadal prach a poníženie. Teraz, keď je Dominic na vrchole slávy, Alessandra náhle pochopí, že preňho bude vždy až na druhom mieste. Po dlhom čase sa rozhodne uprednostniť seba, a to aj za cenu odlúčenia od jediného človeka, pri ktorom chce stáť. Dominic však nepozná nie a urobí všetko, aby zvrátil rozpad ich vzťahu. Naozaj všetko.

The Summer Proposal
The first time I met Max Yearwood was on a blind date. Max was insanely gorgeous, funny, and our chemistry was off the charts. He also had the biggest dimples I'd ever laid eyes on.
Exactly what I needed after my breakup. Or so I thought…Until my real date arrived.
Turned out, Max wasn't who I was there to meet. He only pretended to be until my real date showed up. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. Before he left, he slipped me a ticket to a hockey game a few blocks away, in case things didn't work out on my actual date. I tossed the ticket into my purse and went about trying to enjoy the man I was supposed to meet.
But my real blind date and I had no connection. So on my way home, I decided to take a chance and stop by the game. When I arrived, the seat next to me was empty. Disappointed again, I decided to leave at the end of the period. Just before the buzzer, one of the teams scored, and the entire arena went crazy. A player's face flashed up on the Jumbotron. He was wearing a helmet, but I froze when he smiled.
You guessed it: Dimples.
Apparently, my fake blind date hadn't invited me to watch hockey with him; he'd invited me to watch him play. And so began my adventure with Max Yearwood.
Max proposed that we spend the summer helping me forget my ex. It sounded like a good plan. Things couldn't get too serious when we had an expiration date. Right? But you know what they say about the best-laid plans…

Věrní a padlí 2: Odvaha
Země vyhnanců jsou rozervány válkou, nejvyšší král Nathair táhne říší a bojuje proti každému, kdo se jeho svatému tažení staví na odpor.
Mladá dívka Cywen, která byla ponechána vlastnímu osudu a opuštěna rodinou prchající ze země dobyté nepřáteli, musí bojovat o přežití. Veškerá její naděje na únik se stává marnou ve chvíli, kdy si Nathair uvědomí, kým Cywen je. Nehodlá dopustit, aby mu tak cenný úlovek vyklouzl z rukou. Neboť právě Cywen může být klíčem k zabití toho, kdo nejvíc ohrožuje jeho cestu k moci.
Válečník Corban mezitím se svou družinou prchá z domoviny a míří na jediné místo, které jim může poskytnout útočiště. Aby se tam však dostali, musí projet nepřátelským Cambrenem a vyhnout se vojskům, obrům i zuřivým vlkovcům z hor. Corban po celou dobu svádí vnitřní boj, aby se stal tím, za koho jej všichni mají — Jasnou hvězdou a spasitelem Zemí vyhnanců.
Svět smrtelníků je natolik pohroužený do bojů o moc a přežití, že nikdo nevnímá největší nebezpečí. Temné síly v Zásvětí osnují plány, jak přivést vojska padlých do světa a tím jednou provždy ukončit odvěkou válku proti věrným.

Paper America
Paper america: New & Selected Poems gathers the poetic vision of Texas Poet Laureate Emmy Pérez, a voice rooted in the landscapes and communities of the Texas–Mexico border. Drawing from her acclaimed collections Solstice and With the River on Our Face, alongside powerful new work, Pérez offers poems that confront the realities of immigration, border walls, cultural invisibility, and violence, while celebrating resilience, motherhood, and the enduring ties of family and heritage. Writing from McAllen and the Rio Grande Valley, Pérez continues the legacy of Gloria Anzaldúa and Chicana/Latina writers who turned la frontera into a literary ground of strength and survival. Whether she is memorializing the children of Uvalde, reflecting on the river that sustains border communities, or capturing everyday encounters in classrooms and neighborhoods, her lines of poetry are precious—each one crafted with compassion, clarity, and urgency. With Whitmanesque scope yet firmly grounded in Mexican American identity and borderlands experience, Pérez’s poetry bridges the personal and the political, reminding readers of the power of words to bear witness, resist injustice, and cultivate hope. Paper america is both an introduction to one of Texas’s most vital poets and a career-spanning testament to the necessity of art in difficult times.
How to Start
'A model of real, grounded, hard-headed optimism in these days of crisis and anxiety – useful not only for new graduates but for all of us' Oliver Burkeman, bestselling author of Four Thousand Weeks Jodi Kantor’s ground-breaking reporting has toppled media magnates, sparked reform worldwide and foretold many of the unsettling changes we see in the workplace today. But before all of this, Kantor was kicked off her college newspaper. Society expects perfection, but Kantor knows those first professional steps are often rocky. She also knows that younger generations today are facing new and frightening terrain, with political upheaval, skyrocketing costs of living and the unknowns of AI. Kantor casts aside platitudes and false hope to offer tangible help. Work is how we spend much of our time. It’s our engine of progress: how cancer therapies are invented, political campaigns won, thrilling art created and matched with an audience. Instead of letting cynicism take over, Kantor identifies two principles to help young people discover their life’s work: craft and need. By pairing the two, they can navigate tough, sensitive choices: how to think about money. How much risk to take on. When to buck what others are saying. Powerful and provocative, How to Start is a statement of faith for young people to keep in their back pocket as they make their way through uncertain times, and offers wisdom, strategy and a set of aspirations to launch their careers and last their whole lives.

Come Sing for the Harrowing
From British and World Fantasy award-winning writer and editor Dan Coxon, Come Sing for the Harrowing is an uncanny folk horror collection for fans of John Langan and Robert Aickman. A young man working at a tourist attraction is singled out for unholy transformation, a gang of burglars are ambushed with something unworldly when they attempt to rob a local farm, and a daughter seeks revenge on her abusive father after his death. Invoking the sense of natural surreal found in Midsommar, these stories are always a little to the left of what’s expected. Weaving macabre contingencies into realities, Dan Coxon crafts unsettling and eerie worlds through hauntingly literary prose. Including a featured story from Ellen Datlow’s “Best of Horror” round-up and a foreword from Brian Evenson, Come Sing for the Harrowing will haunt your dreams and gnaw at you during the daylight.
The Unspeakable Vice
As gay men and lesbian women increasingly gained recognition and acceptance in twentieth-century literature and film, and subsequently in social and political movements, the Catholic Church reacted by subtly moving away from its overt condemnation of homosexuality as an urgent moral problem and toward tacitly shunning homosexuality as an “unspeakable vice.” In this revealing history, Francesco Torchiani reconstructs the Catholic Church’s shifting attitudes toward homosexuality during this period by drawing on a vast array of internal documents and external accounts. This monograph expands the scholarship on the relationship between Catholicism and homosexuality in terms of both method and content, ultimately concluding that the Catholic Church continues to wholeheartedly condemn homosexuality despite making genuine efforts to reflect on and understand its social and cultural impact. The Unspeakable Vice therefore sheds new light on and places into historical perspective the questions the Catholic Church continues to reckon with regarding its role in contemporary society.
