The Visionaries


Although the Second World War was still a long way from being won, even by early 1941, US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was already planning for peace. America's entry of the war may still have been almost a year away, but he could already see the new world order that needed to emerge from the smouldering ashes of Europe. The business of war was very quickly going to have to become the business of peace. Three years later, under the guidance of his successor, President Harry S. Truman, the Marshall Plan would emerge, a forward-thinking combination of global philanthropy and canny self-interest, rooted in a profound sense of Christian and moral duty, and which kickstarted unprecedented European growth and a chance for the world as a whole to rebuild after the ruinous catastrophe of war. From the world on the eve of war in 1914 through to the Versailles Treaty and the global financial catastrophe of the late 1920s and early thirties, and the political earthquakes that followed, The Visionaries takes a broad sweep of history with important lessons for today. It's a reminder that while history does not repeat itself, patterns of human behaviour certainly do. James Holland's knowledge of the Second World War and its aftermath gives him unique insight into the far-reaching consequences of the financial policies of Roosevelt and Truman. The sustained period of economic stability they initiated delivered peace to the western democracies for over eighty years and stand in stark contrast to our transactional approach to the world today.

Great Big Beautiful Life


When Margaret Ives, the famously reclusive heiress, invites eternal optimist Alice Scott to the balmy Little Crescent Island, Alice knows this is it: her big break. And even more rare: a chance to impress her family with a Serious Publication. The catch? Pulitzer-prize winning human thundercloud, Hayden Anderson, is sure of the same thing. The proposal? A one-month trial period to unearth the truth behind one of the most scandalous families of the 20th Century, after which she’ll choose who’ll tell her story. The problem? Margaret is only giving each of them tantalising pieces. Pieces they can’t put together because of an ironclad NDA and an inconvenient yearning pulsing between them every time they’re in the same room. And it’s becoming abundantly clear that their story – just like the tale Margaret’s spinning – could be a mystery, tragedy, or love ballad … depending on who’s telling it.

Klíč k domovu


Slaný vítr mi vhání slzy do očí, když hledím na smaragdové vody Irského moře. Všechno, o co jsem přišla, i dítě, které ztratila moje prababička Nellie, je tady najednou tak opravdové – v zemi, kterou má rodina opustila. Jak mám jít dál? Odhalím někdy pravdu o malé dívce, která před tolika lety zmizela? Když Erin, rodačka z Bostonu, přijíždí do větrem bičované zátoky Roone Bay, má zlomené srdce, je unavená a osamělá. Její manželství skončilo a teď se snaží vybudovat nový život na drsném pobřeží Irska. A také rozluštit příběh záhadného vzkazu ve staré rodinné bibli, který ji pronásleduje od dětství. Finn, místní historik a člen pobřežní stráže, však její prosby o pomoc odmítá. Erin se tedy zabydlí v městečku s vybílenými chalupami a rybáři s tvářemi ošlehanými větrem a vydává se pátrat po vlastní ose. Kdo byla její příbuzná Nellie a proč odešla z Irska do Ameriky? Co se stalo s její ztracenou dcerkou Annie a setkala se s ní Nellie ještě někdy? Erin už začíná ztrácet naději, že se někdy dopátrá pravdy, když ji jedné deštivé noci zachrání Finn, který nakonec souhlasí, že jí pomůže. A večer co večer, při světle ohně a svíček, tak jako za časů její prababičky, se Finn a Erin sbližují, když si navzájem vyprávějí své životní příběhy. Ovšem ve chvíli, kdy Erin začíná věřit, že by městečko Roone Bay mohlo být jejím novým domovem, učiní zdrcující objev. Dokáže čelit pravdě, která změní všechno, co si dosud myslela o sobě, své minulosti i irském dědictví své rodiny? Nebo uteče, stejně jako kdysi Nellie, a promarní tak největší šanci na štěstí, jakou kdy měla? Vychází v překladu Michaely Vavrušové.

Living Planet


A new, fully updated narrative edition of David Attenborough's seminal biography of our world, The Living Planet. Nowhere on our planet is devoid of life. Plants and animals thrive or survive within every extreme of climate and habitat that it offers. Single species, and often whole communities adapt to make the most of ice cap and tundra, forest and plain, desert, ocean and volcano. These adaptations can be truly extraordinary: fish that walk or lay eggs on leaves in mid-air; snakes that fly; flightless birds that graze like deer; and bears that grow hair on the soles of their feet. In The Living Planet, David Attenborough's searching eye, unfailing curiosity and infectious enthusiasm explain and illuminate the intricate lives of the these colonies, from the lonely heights of the Himalayas to the wild creatures that have established themselves in the most recent of environments, the city. By the end of this book it is difficult to say which is the more astonishing - the ingenuity with which individual species contrive a living, or the complexity of their interdependence on each other and on the habitations provided by our planet. In this new edition, the author, with the help of zoologist Matthew Cobb, has added all the most up-to-date discoveries of ecology and biology, as well as a full-colour 64-page photography section. He also addresses the urgent issues facing our living planet: climate change, pollution and mass extinction of species.

Eva had it all: a high-flying job, a picture-perfect marriage, a lifestyle that many would aspire to. Yet she couldn't shake the feeling that she is living someone else's dream. After hitting rock bottom, she bought a one-way ticket to Nepal and left her old life behind in search of her true path in life. Over the next few years, Eva travelled solo to some of the world's most far-flung places - A lone horse trek in Mongolia, COVID lockdown on a desert island in Yemen and overlanding across the US in an 18-year-old truck with her beloved dog, Vilk.

Thorn Season


ONLY THE SHARPEST WILL SURVIVE "Court is filled with charming vipers," I said, chin lifted. "But charming or not, we are vipers all the same." In the Kingdom of Daradon, a persecuted few are Wielders - able to exert a physical power that extends beyond their visible body: a shimmering tendril that can pick a lock, a gentle coil that reaches out to give a loving caress, or an inexorable rope that will kill a man before he knows it is around his neck. Feared and mistrusted for this ability, Wielders have always been Hunted. Alissa Paine - heiress of a noble lineage, daughter of a Hunter family - is also a Wielder. And as she approaches her eighteenth Season, Alissa knows she has escaped execution so far only through painful self-control, and the fragile efforts of her beloved father. Summoned to the harsh and glittering royal court for the debutante season, Alissa finds herself trapped in a web of hidden intentions - and caught between two equally dangerous men. One is a brutal ruler with the handsome face of a fairytale prince, who would see her destroyed in an instant if the truth were known - and the other a beguiling foreign ambassador with secret agendas of his own. It's Rose Season at the palace, but Alissa knows that survival will depend on being the most vicious of the thorns… WIELD YOUR POWER. GUARD YOUR SECRET. SURVIVE THE HUNT. Sharp, funny, sexy and dangerous, and packed full of irresistible twists, Thorn Season is an unforgettable novel that marks the introduction of a major new YA voice.

Na začátku, jak už to u příběhů bývá, byla exploze. Byt Luka Cage vylétl do povětří. A i když má „hrdina k pronajmutí“ kůži měkkou jako pancíř tanku, tenhle výbuch ho poslal do nemocnice a do kómatu. Ukazuje se, že útok byl pomstou za akci, kterou kdysi hrdinové (Spider-Man, Captain America, Wolverine, Daredevil a Luke Cage), provedli. Akci tak tajnou, že o ní nevědí ani oni sami. Kterou jim někdo vymazal z paměti. A právě teď si začínají vzpomínat. Tajná válka je především promyšlený špionážní thriller s perfektními dialogy Briana Michaela Bendise (Alias, Daredevil, Tajná invaze) a úžasnou kresbou skvělého Gabriela Dell´Otta (Amazing Spider-Man: Rodinný podnik).
