KÜLÖNLEGES, ÉLDEKORÁLT KIADÁS
Kade Mitchell megszállottja valakinek, akit megvet
Stacey Rhodes egy angyal bőrébe bújt kígyó, mégis ő az, akit Kade képtelen elfelejteni: a lány, aki összetörte a szívét, és az alvilág mélyének sötétjébe taszította..
Éveken át figyelte. Megölt mindenkit, aki a közelébe merészkedett. De most, amikor a számára csapdát jelentő életből egy röpke pillanatra kiszabadul, hazatér és ismét hajtja a vágy, hogy a lányt a magáénak követelje, és ezért megszeg minden szabályt, amit felállított.
Még a gyűlölet sem nyomhatja el a kettejük közötti vonzalmat.
De Kade sosem fog megbocsátani - vagy mégis?
Let Go
As we grow older, human beings accumulate more and more unnecessary things just by living. And not just objects, we accrue connections and status in addition to expensive goods.
If you don't throw these things away as soon as possible, you become a person who can't throw things away. Before you know it, your life is full of noise. You're tied up. Full of anxiety about the future.
That's a tough kind of life, isn't it?
This bestselling and hugely influential book provides an overview of the top ten things you can let go of in five of the most important areas of your life: money and the things you own, your working life, your physical and mental health, your relationships and your lifestyle.
We all cling to habits we learned from our parents, grandparents, friends and society and not letting them go comes at the expense of our personal freedom and overall life satisfaction.
All of the '50 Things' included in this book centre on the idea that minimalism can have a hugely positive impact on your life by clearing away the noise. Every item you let go of clears space for more freedom and creative energy to flow in.
Embrace the courage to let go!

Shaolin Spirit
What do you imagine when you think of Shaolin? Ferociously strong warriors flying through the air?
Shaolin is more than just the physical expression of martial arts. Rooted in Zen and Tao philosophy, it also offers a way of reconnecting our minds with our bodies through meditative movement to cultivate the core virtues of discipline and perseverance.
In this book, Shi Heng Yi, founder of Shaolin Temple Europe and lay disciple of the Songshan Shaolin Temple, introduces us to the contemplative practice that underpins Shaolin – a way of life that has existed for over 1,500 years – and shows how it can help us today.
Having experienced the challenges of modern life as a young man, Shi Heng Yi understands the pressures only too well. Here, he highlights twelve key practices to help improve sleep, relationships and decision-making, as much as balance, flexibility and strength, offering a powerful pathway to self-mastery and understanding.
Môj rok 1971
Od augusta 1968 uplynulo dva a pol roka a kolesá normalizácie, cesty k čistej totalite, už sa krútili a naberali rýchlosť. Absolútna moc komunistov bola podtrhnutá a spočítaná na ich májovom zjazde. Nebolo to veselé. Väčšina ľudí chcela žiť a milovať sa, mať deti a pokoj od nejakých politických táranín a handrkovania. A – zabávať sa. Počúvali sme Johna Lennona a jeho Imagine, Eltona Johna a Rolling Stones, ale aj Collegium Musicum... V tomto roku František Venclovský preplával ako prvý Čechoslovák kanál La Manche, bol natočený film Orlie pierko a po troch rokoch zatvorili Divadlo na korze. Nečudo, Lasica, Satinský a spol. boli jednoducho nežiadúci... Miloš Forman, Jan Němec alebo Ivan Passer opustili krajinu. Ďalší nemohli pri filme naďalej vôbec pracovať alebo čelili permanentnej cenzúre. Ale zabávali sme sa na Dívce na koštěti, aj na Jamesovi Bondovi vo filme Diamanty sú večné. Oscara tento rok získala Francúzska spojka. Najúspešnejším československým športovcom sa stal Ondrej Nepela, futbalistom roka Karol Dobiaš a bežec Dušan Moravčík skončil na Majstrovstvách Európy druhý... Začal sa stavať obchodný dom Kotva, otvorili prvý diaľničný úsek Praha – Mirošovice a prvý cestný tunel na štátnej ceste medzi Stratenou a Dobšinskou ľadovou jaskyňou v Slovenskom raji.
HOW TO KILL A WITCH
As a woman, if you lived in Scotland in the 1500s, there was a very good chance that you, or someone you knew, would be tried as a witch. Witch hunts ripped through the country for over 150 years, with at least 4,000 accused, and with many women's fates sealed by a grizzly execution of strangulation, followed by burning.
Inspired to correct this historic injustice, campaigners and writers Claire Mitchell, KC, and Zoe Venditozzi, have delved deeply into just why the trials exploded in Scotland to such a degree. In order to understand why it happened, they have broken down the entire horrifying process, step-by-step, from identification of individuals, to their accusation, 'pricking', torture, confessions, execution and beyond.
With characteristically sharp wit and a sense of outrage, they attempt to inhabit the minds of the persecutors, often men, revealing the inner workings of exactly why the Patriarchy went to such extraordinary lengths to silence women, and how this legally sanctioned victimisation proliferated in Scotland and around the world.
With testimony from a small army of experts, pen portraits of the women accused, trial transcripts, witness accounts and the documents that set the legal grounds for the hunts, How to Kill A Witch builds to form a rich patchwork of tragic stories, helping us comprehend the underlying reasons for this terrible injustice, and raises the serious question - could it ever happen again?

Slova
Byl to talentovaný rebel, kterého všichni chtěli. Já byla bezvýznamná šprtka, kterou všichni nenáviděli. On byl předurčený stát se hvězdou. Já jsem byla předurčena zůstat bezvýznamnou nýmandkou. Dokud mě nepřesvědčil, že jsem výjimečná... A pak mě zničil. Nikdy jsem si nemyslela, že Phoenixe ještě někdy uvidím, poté co mi zlomil srdce, ale osud měl jiné plány. Jedno turné. Osm týdnů. Nespočet příležitostí, jak mu to oplatit. Svět si myslel, že je bůh... Ale já znala pravdu.

Ano, všechno skončí masakrem.
Ale bude to sranda.
Cipruskoporsó
Nagynénje hosszan tartó, súlyos betegségét követő halála után Elinor Carlisle hatalmas vagyont örököl. Ám lehet, hogy mindezt már nem tudja élvezni, ugyanis gyilkosság vádjával áll a bíróság előtt. Ő az egyetlen gyanúsított, mivel féltékenységéből adódóan kizárólag neki lehetett oka a fiatal és szép Mary Gerrard, Laura néni felolvasónőjének a megölésére. A vádat csak súlyosbítja, hogy nagynénje – közvetlenül a halála előtt – módosítani akarta a végrendeletét Mary javára. Az indíték egyértelmű, minden Elinor ellen szól – de akad valaki, aki váltig hisz Elinor ártatlanságában: Peter Lord, Laura néni kezelőorvosa. A doktor, hogy megmentse Elinort a már biztosnak látszó ítélettől, nem kisebb szakértőt bíz meg a védelem oldalán, mint a nagy Hercule Poirot-t.

Unknown to many, this cultural fascination has a deep and rich history that spans continents and millennia.

The Child-Healthy Divorce
A good divorce is better than a bad marriage, but for children that doesn’t make the split any easier. Legal decisions have emotional consequences. Well-meaning parents can become hostile, insecure, or jealous, and well-adjusted kids can grieve the loss of the family unit, rage at the pain that they feel, or prey on parental guilt.
In The Child-Healthy Divorce, acclaimed psychoanalyst and award-winning author Erica Komisar marshals more than 30 years of clinical experience and extensive research to show readers how to make an effective plan that centres children’s needs, including how to talk about what’s happening, how to maintain normal routines, and what to know about kids of different ages. For example, interrupting a child’s attachment with the primary caregiver before age three can lead to behavioural problems later in life. Teens going to college also need a stable home as a foundation to establish their own independence.
With numerous case studies and practical strategies, the book shows parents how to create age-appropriate custody arrangements, reassure kids without invalidating their feelings, and build a positive support system. It also provides helpful guidance about new partners, blended families, and other special situations. Most importantly, it offers hope.
No one with kids wants a divorce, but if that step becomes necessary, this book can help readers establish the emotional security that their children need for success in life.
