Zvrácený osud - Stříbrná krev 1
Čarodějka Anarché má jediný úkol: udržovat magickou hranici, která chrání její vesnici před démony z lesa. Každý měsíc čerpá sílu z rituálu s nejlepším démonobijcem, který vyhraje turnaj a získá právo se s čarodějkou spojit během noci plné vášně. Anarché má všechno, jen ne respekt a vděk vesničanů. Z úcty k matčině odkazu však zůstává věrná své roli. Co se ale stane, když při lovu na démona zabloudí hluboko do lesa a střetne se s prastarou hrozbou? A je hranice mezi dobrem a zlem skutečně tak jasná?

Having Spent Life Seeking
Rothko Taylor has washed up with the tide, back in their hometown, Edgecliff. Fifteen years since they left it behind.
The past is accelerating towards them: the skateboard kids on the high street that remind them of their teenage years, the splintered benches looking out to sea, where their mum Meg clutched her cans. The nice bit of town, where their dad Ezra tried and failed to build a happy home. And Dionne's block. Beautiful, extraordinary Dionne, the only person who had ever looked at them and seen what was there.
Back then, overwhelmed and full of fear, they sank beneath the surface into chaos. But they made it out alive. And this time, Rothko is determined that things will be different.
A decade since Kae Tempest's last novel, Having Spent Life Seeking is about family and forgiveness; redemption and atonement; desire and abandon; selfhood and community. This book is about things we seek when we are hiding, and what finds us, if we can let ourselves be seen.
The Sea Spinner
Bursting with reawakened magic, a young woman challenges the tides of fate in this highly anticipated installment of Julie Johnson’s romantasy series . . . --Something changed for Rhya Fleetwood in the battle of Fyremas. Her untrained power feels both heavy with grief and volatile, crackling with each pulse of her simmering rage. Caeldera lies in ruins. Her friends are dead or wounded. And Pendefyre, their newly crowned king, is shutting her out. The Remnant of Fire needs all his focus for his kingdom, his people, and—perhaps more than anything—his insatiable need for revenge. When a twist of fate leads Rhya to the last place she expected—the Water Court—the novice wind weaver is forced to confront the limitations of her power as well as her increasingly complicated relationships. For enigmatic King Soren of Llyr is as different from Penn as sparks are from the sea. The more insight he offers into the maegic that binds them together, the more confused Rhya feels—about her future as a Remnant, about her deepest desires, and about her role in the coming war. Enemies circle close, ready to strike. And if Rhya isn’t careful, she’ll lose more than just her heart. She’ll lose her life. --Praise for the series:-"The Wind Weaver is a masterful fusion of epic fantasy and heart-pounding romance, equally relentless in its examination of dark themes as it is in bringing hope and magic to life. Julie Johnson's rich worldbuilding leaves no stone unturned, and her gripping prose takes no prisoners." Thea Guanzon, USA Today and New York Times bestselling author of The Hurricane Wars“Julie Johnson creates a unique and addictive world in The Wind Weaver, unlike any other. Whether you're new to Romantasy or Fantasy, or seasoned, you'll find yourself immersed in the complex, beautifully crafted, chaotic and mesmerizing world of Anwyvn.” Anna Todd, New York Times bestselling author"Johnson knows how to weave true enemies-to-lovers tension that will drive you wild in the best ways." LJ Andrews, USA Today bestselling author of The Ever King"Johnson hooks you from the very first page and never lets you go."

Decisions on Western Waters
The long-running Decisions Series tackles the Brown Water Navy. At the outset of the Civil War, General Winfield Scott drafted the Anaconda Plan, an ambitious strategy to blockade southern ports and use army forces supported by naval gunboats to secure control of the Mississippi River for the Union, effectively dividing the Confederacy in two. Over the course of the campaign, General Grant's ground forces closely cooperated with river forces under the leadership of Flag Officers Andrew H. Foote and David Dixon Porter, as well as Rear Admiral David Farragut, to successfully seize Confederate strongholds along the Mississippi River and its tributaries. Their gunboats and ironclads became known as the Brown Water Navy. This long, successful Federal campaign succeeded in opening the Mississippi River with the capture of New Orleans and the Confederate capitulation of Vicksburg. Decisions on Western Waters explores the critical decisions made by Confederate and Federal politicians and commanders during the campaign that shaped its outcome. Rather than offering a linear history of the campaign, Michael D. Becker homes in on decisions made by both sides of the contest to provide a clear blueprint of the campaign development and conduct at its tactical core. Exploring the decisions in this manner allows students of the campaign to progress from a knowledge of what happened to a mature grasp of why events happened. Complete with maps and a driving tour, Decisions on Western Waters is an indispensable primer to the campaign on the western waterways, and readers looking for a concise introduction to the battles can tour this sacred ground—or read about it at their leisure—with key insights into the campaign and a deeper understanding of the Civil War itself. Decisions on Western Waters is the twenty-third in a series of books that explores the critical decisions of major campaigns and battles of the Civil War.

Azzedine Alaia and Christian Dior
The visual dialogue between two maitre couturiers featuring the best creations of Azzedine Alaia and Christian Dior
It was in Tunisia, when he was still a teenager, that the young Ala?a first discovered the creations of Christian Dior through fashion magazines made available to him by Madame Pinault. In 1956, on his arrival in Paris, he undertook a brief four-day internship with the great couturier, whom he had always admired. During this time, he immersed himself in the unique atmosphere of a fashion house, observed the work of the head of the atelier, and witnessed the creation of a collection... This seminal experience would be spoken of with emotion for many years to come.
The book Azzedine Alaia and Christian Dior: Two Masters of Couture offers a dialogue between Azzedine Alaia's models and those that the couturier patiently collected from Christian Dior. It highlights concepts of style and creation that, despite being separated by several decades, respond to, unite or confront each other, bearing witness to a shared sensibility over time.

Vtělená moudrost
Moshé Feldenkrais dokázal na malé ploše vyjádřit své základní myšlenky velmi pregnantním a srozumitelným způsobem. A přece nebyly Feldenkraisovy články a rozhovory ještě nedávno běžně dostupné. Proto se editorka Elizabeth Beringerová rozhodla shromáždit veškeré autorovy texty tohoto typu z let 1964–1981. Jednotlivé texty jsou doplněny o vysvětlení kontextu a fotografické dokumenty.
Publikace shrnuje základní myšlenky Feldenkraisovy metody, například důraz na adaptabilitu organismu jako projev zdraví. Tím, že se vědomě zaměřujeme na své pohybové vzorce, zlepšujeme i své duševní fungování. Publikace rovněž propojuje Feldenkraisovu metodu s dalšími zajímavými kontexty (např. vztah sluchu a prostorové orientace, bojová umění, role předního mozku, herectví) a dokládá, že autor měl propracovaný filozofický pohled na život a byl také v kontaktu s významnými osobnostmi své doby. Některé texty obsahují konkrétní náměty na cvičení nebo vycházejí ze zkušeností se seminářem, který Feldenkrais vedl.
