Krvavá aréna
V Klánovickém lese to zase vře. Na jeho okraji jsou nalezeny mrtvoly muže a vlka, sevřené v podivném, téměř rituálním objetí. Tragická náhoda, nebo krutý vzkaz? Vyšetřovatelé Diana Černá a Radim Brázda se pouštějí do řešení záhady, která je zavede hlouběji do temnoty lesa, než by čekali. Současně se pátrač Eda Braun vydává po stopách pohřešované těhotné Adély Podhradské, učitelky, která kdysi v lese se svou třídou objevila lidskou nohu a nechtěně tak rozpoutala jeden z nejzapeklitějších případů mordparty. A do toho všeho bývalý detektiv Otakar Kubát při snaze překonat svou fóbii z lesa zjišťuje, že smrtící lom znovu ožil. Slouží opravdu jen přírodovědnému kroužku, nebo se do Klánovic vrátil Vládce Vidrholce, aby znovu otevřel svou krvavou arénu?

Trans Central Station
Trans Central Station reflects on a trans life lived before the language to name it. In this luminous essay, award-winning science fiction and fantasy author and tarotist Rachel Pollack moves between personal memory, history, science fiction and myth to consider how words can both restrict and liberate. From Schrödinger’s cat and science-fiction portals to magic, early trans activism and comics, Trans Central Station breaks the world open to ‘both completely new and unknowably ancient’ possibilities of desire, joy and revelation. Situating trans existence within deep time, Pollack connects modern experience to shamanism and rites of transformation, insisting that trans people have always existed – and have often been understood as sacred figures. In this meditation on freedom – from rigid social structures, from fear and shame, and from history itself – to be trans is proof of ancient and ongoing cosmic power.
Phantom alakja (Phantom sorozat 1.)
Egy rejtőzködő énekes. Egy elhanyagolt lány. És a zene, ami összeköti őket.
A végzős év előtti nyár unalmasan indul Lívia számára. A lány múltja magányos, a tánc az egyetlen menedéke, ám úgy tűnik, a vakáció alatt minden megváltozik. Megismeri Ádámot, és egy új szerelem ígérete bontakozik ki, de a barátai ezt nem nézik jó szemmel - különösen a legjobb barátnőjének bátyja, Nikó nem, aki fél, hogy a lány szíve darabokra törik.
Mindeközben pedig rátalál egy énekesre. Az internetet meghódító művész az árnyékból játszik. A zenéi ezrekhez jutnak el, ám valójában csak egyvalakinek szólnak…
Livi egy meggondolatlan pillanatban üzenetet ír neki. És Phantom válaszol. Ahogy telik az idő, egyre jobban megnyílnak egymásnak. A lányt pedig már nem hagyja nyugodni: ki lehet ez az ismerősnek tűnő idegen, és miért mutat rá egyre több jel, hogy a dalokkal neki üzen?
Vajon képes lesz kideríteni, kit rejt Phantom alakja?

The Practice of Attention
It’s no secret that our attention is fractured. We look for distraction anytime we have a spare moment or feel bored or uncomfortable. We yearn to be fully immersed in the moment - whether for deep work or pleasure - but we have almost forgotten how. The Practice of Attention opens the door to reclaim our focus, so we can be more present with those we love, be more immersed in our work and play, and ultimately live more fully. Beloved artist and teacher Cody Cook-Parrott invites us to join them in building practices that heighten our attention. Beginning with an exploration of what we’re avoiding when we distract ourselves, Cody offers an Attention Audit that helps us understand where we place our focus (and where we lose it) throughout the day and week. After getting a clear understanding of where we are, we can create a schedule and a life with more focus. Being present requires practice, and Cody encourages us to find the practices that resonate most with us, exploring movement, creativity, spiritual practice, being of service, and more. Themes of cultivating curiosity and devotion and letting go of perfectionism and people-pleasing are woven throughout. Shifting our attention has profound power on how we experience ourselves and those around us. Cody writes, “This is my wish: that you feel less pull toward your screen and more pull toward your life.”

But Ben wasn't picked at random—he has a history that no one is supposed to know. At the same time, A NYPD detective, Kelly Hendricks, is on punishment duty with the transit police. The first one on the scene after the first murder, she gets on the train to find out what is really going on.

The Sunflower House
In a sleepy German village, Allina Gottlieb's life is idyllic: she works at the bookshop with her uncle, makes strudel with her aunt, and spends the weekends with her friends and fiancé. But it's 1939, and on one fateful night, her life changes forever. The Sunflower House is a meticulously-researched debut historical novel set at Hochland Home, part of the notorious Lebensborn Program in Nazi Germany - a real-life Handmaid’s Tale. Women of “pure” blood resided there for the sole purpose of perpetuating the Aryan population, giving birth to hundreds of babies who were then raised - and neglected - in this state-run baby factory. With her life on the line, Allina is forced to work as a nurse in Hochland Home. Her Jewish identity must remain a secret in order for her to survive, but when she discovers the neglect occurring within the home, she is determined not only to save herself, but also the children in her care. The Sunflower House is as much a story of one woman’s determination to resist and survive, as it is a love story. When Allina meets Karl, a high-ranking SS officer with secrets of his own, the two must decide how much they are willing to share with each other - and how much they can stand to risk. The threads of this poignant and heartrending novel weave a tale of loss and love, friendship and betrayal, and the secrets we bury in order to save ourselves.
Daughter of Egypt
In the 1920s, archaeologist Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon of Highclere Castle made headlines around the world with the discovery of the treasure-filled tomb of the boy Pharaoh Tutankhamun. But behind it all stood Lady Evelyn Herbert—daughter of Lord Carnarvon—whose daring spirit and relentless curiosity made the momentous find possible. Nearly 3,000 years earlier, another woman defied the expectations of her time: Hatshepsut, Egypt’s lost pharaoh. Her reign was bold, visionary—and nearly erased from history. When Evelyn becomes obsessed with finding Hatshepsut’s secret tomb, she risks everything to uncover the truth about her reign and keep valued artifacts in Egypt, their rightful home. But as danger closes in and political tensions rise, she must make an impossible choice: protect her father’s legacy—or forge her own. Propelled by high adventure and deadly intrigue, Daughter of Egypt is the story of two ambitious women who lived centuries apart. Both were forced to hide who they were during their lifetimes yet ultimately changed history forever.
Not Going Back
Despite intense political debate, attitudes on abortion were remarkably stable for decades. However, after the 2022 Dobbs decision, Americans' opinions began to change. Not Going Back explores the shifts in public opinion on this hot-button issue from the landmark passing of Roe v. Wade in 1973 through the 2024 election and into 2025. The authors ask, "What role do Americans want their government to play in protecting, regulating, or restricting abortion access?" and, "How will changing attitudes on abortion reshape American politics?" They offer cohesive, theoretically grounded explanations for both the continuity and the change in Americans' attitudes on this contentious topic. Using national data, they take a deep dive into the personal experiences and social forces behind these changes. Not Going Back ends with an examination of the consequences of these changes for election outcomes. While there has been a striking reversal in the prioritization of abortion as an issue among Democrats and Republicans, the full impact of this shift in thinking will be influenced by future policies, court decisions, and party reactions.
You Did Nothing Wrong

He’s whisked her and her autistic son, Jude, to the crumbling family house he’s renovating. She has a new husband, a new house, and a new baby on the way. Everything is perfect. Then Jude claims he can hear voices in the walls. He says their renovations are “hurting” the house. Even Elodie can’t ignore it–something strange is going on. The question is, is it with the house, or with her son? Then the one secret Elodie has been hiding is revealed, and no one is safe anymore.
A pulse-pounding, clever take on the haunted house novel, You Did Nothing Wrong examines the complexities of motherhood and the twisted bonds of family as it races to its shocking ending.
