Valós Rémálmok
Amikor az ember azt hiszi, minden a helyére kerül, akkor jön egy újabb csapás.
Alicia visszatér Holtvölgybe, hogy helyre tegye azokat a dolgokat, amelyek a múltban megtörténtek: gyász, trauma, csalódás. Sok mindenen ment keresztül, ám az a célja, hogy legyőzze a fejében lakozó démonokat, hogy továbbléphessen, és boldog, nyugodt életet éljen. De ahogyan azt már megtanultuk, Holtvölgyben semmi nem olyan egyszerű.
Valaki ott lapul a sötétben. Valaki, aki nem képes továbblépni. Valaki, aki bármeddig hajlandó elmenni azért, hogy megkapja, amit akar.
Miközben Alicia igyekszik szabad lenni, és továbbra is meg akarja fejteni az egyik rejtélyes gyilkosságot, mely ezen a helyen történt, Olivér újra a lány kegyeiért teper. Ő sem adja fel könnyen, azonban ha igazán boldoggá akarja tenni őt, neki is szembe kell néznie valamivel. Azzal az énjével, melyet még ő maga sem ismer eléggé.
Vajon sikerül megküzdeniük az újabb nehézségekkel, vagy ezúttal végleg elnyeli őket a sötétség?

Whispers of You - Suttogások (Elveszítve & Rátalálva 1.)
Egy éjszaka, amely mindent elvett tőlem.
A testemet, ami helyrehozhatatlanul megsérült. A fiút, akiről azt hittem, hogy örökké az enyém marad. Az életet, amiről mindig is álmodtam.
Holt most visszatért. Csakhogy most már nem fiú, hanem férfi, akinek tekintetében árnyak lapulnak, és akit démonok kísértenek.
Azt mondja, azért jött, hogy mindent rendbe hozzon. Hogy visszaszerezzen egy kicsit mindabból, amit elveszítettünk. És esze ágában sincs elhagyni a kisvárost, amely a menedékemmé vált.
Ahogy a lopott pillanatok napokká nyúlnak, Holt mindenhol jelen van égő tekintetével és még sokáig kísértő érintéseivel. Falaim lassan leomlanak, és csak remélni tudom, hogy nem akkora esztelenség megragadni ezt a második esélyt, mint amilyennek tűnik.
Ám nem mindenki örül Holt visszatérésének. És amikor a tragédia újból lesújt, én kerülök célkeresztbe. Ezúttal talán Holt sem tud megmenteni…

Už mi dávno není padesát
Po úspěšných sbírkách povídek Ať žijí padesátnice a Padesátka v nouzovém stavu přichází Hana Hřebejková s dalším dílem svých humorných historek ze života. Ze života ženy, která oslavila své padesátiny už před nějakým tím pátkem, ženy, která ráda cestuje, hoduje, zpívá, miluje své děti, vnoučata a přátele a z každé lapálie dokáže vytěžit příhodu, kterou pobaví své blízké. Třeba o tom, zda lze i v pokročilém věku s vášní skládat puzzle v dětském koutku, jak se vydávat za sestru vlastní dcery či jak se vypořádat s hlučným sousedem. S autorkou se vypravíme za humornými historkami na lázeňský pobyt do Františkových Lázní, na zájezd do Alsaska i po památkách naší vlasti. Zavzpomínáme na dobu kovidu i na mladá léta, na trampoty rodinného života, práci v zahraničí a dozvíme se třeba i to, jak najít zvonící mobil zastrčený za gumou vlastních kalhot.

Vďaka prehľadnému grafickému spracovaniu, pútavým ilustráciám a zaujímavým informáciám o jednotlivých prorokoch sa čítanie stáva nielen poučným, ale aj príjemným zážitkom. Každá kapitola ponúka aj praktické zamyslenie, ako môžeme Božiu pravdu aplikovať v každodennom živote, a je doplnená o krátku modlitbu.

Čo starozákonní proroci povedali o Božom Synovi? Komu to hovorili? Čo ich slová znamenali pre ľudí, ktorí žili v dávnych dobách? A ako to všetko súviselo s Ježišom? Odpovede na tieto a mnohé ďalšie otázky hľadá bohato ilustrovaná kniha 30 proroctiev: Jeden príbeh. Hoci je určená najmä pre deti a mládež, v mnohom príjemne prekvapí aj dospelých. Autor Paul Reynolds vybral zo Svätého písma tridsať proroctiev a podrobne vysvetľuje, ako sa Božie slovo naplnilo v Ježišovi, so zámerom vzbudiť v čitateľovi túžbu spoznať ho bližšie.
Nad slovami sv. Maxima Vyznávača - O láske 1
Sú knihy, ktoré človek prečíta a odloží, a potom sú také, ktoré sa stávajú spoločníkmi na celý život. K takým patrí aj dielo „400 textov o láske“ od svätého Maxima Vyznávača, ktorému v našej novej publikácii venujeme osobitnú pozornosť. Dovoľte nám namiesto dlhých recenzií ponúknuť slová samotného svätca, ktoré napísal svojmu priateľovi, kňazovi Elpidiosovi. Tieto slová sú totiž najlepším návodom, ako túto knihu čítať: „Zhustil som spisy svätých otcov do krátkych odstavcov, aby boli ľahšie na zapamätanie a osvojenie. Prosím ťa, čítaj ich s pochopením a hľadaj iba to, čo je užitočné... Mnohé kapitoly potrebujú hlbšie štúdium, aj keď sa zdajú byť veľmi jednoduchými.“ Prečo si túto knihu zamilujete? -Esencia otcov: Nie je to len teória, ale výber toho najlepšieho, čo svätý Maxim našiel u svojich predchodcov. -Proti „záplave slov“: V dobe, kedy je veľa hovoriacich, ale málo konajúcich, nás Maxim pozýva k učeniu sa skutkami. -Čítanie, ktoré mení: Táto kniha nie je pre zvedavcov hľadajúcich informácie, ale pre duše hľadajúce Božiu milosť a bázeň. Prijmite toto pozvanie k uvažovaniu nad učením jedného z najvýznamnejších autorov Filokalie. Nech je pre vás každá jedna kapitola z týchto štyroch stoviek krokom bližšie k autentickej láske k Bohu aj blížnemu.
We Are As Gods
In 1968, Stewart Brand declared: 'We are as gods - and we might as well get good at it.' Half a century later, that prophecy has come true.
We can rewrite genes, edit embryos, build artificial minds, extend life, and terraform worlds. The old miracles - omniscience, omnipresence, even resurrection - are becoming standard operating procedure. But the real question isn't whether humanity can play god. It's whether we can do it wisely.
In this book, the bestselling authors of Abundance and Bold return with a sweeping exploration of our species' next great transformation. Blending hard science with vivid storytelling, Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler chart humanity's ascent from scarcity to superabundance - and the psychological, ethical, and existential challenges that come with it.
Across breakthroughs in AI, robotics, genetics, longevity, and consciousness research, they reveal a paradox at the heart of progress: as our external power expands, our inner resilience must evolve to match. Abundance without meaning leads to collapse. Intelligence without wisdom leads to extinction. To thrive in a world of everything, everywhere, all the time, we must learn to wield our godlike powers with humility, creativity, and flow.
Equal parts warning and invitation, We Are As Gods is a map for flourishing in the exponential century. Because the future won't be built by those who fear what's coming, but by those who know how to turn chaos into creation.
Abundance is here. Are you ready?

Elizabeth - An Intimate Portrait
The intimate life story of Queen Elizabeth II, Britain's longest-reigning monarch, from the royal biographer and writer who knew her family best.
Gyles Brandreth first met the Queen in 1968, when he was twenty years old. Over the next fifty years he would meet her many times at both public and private events, his friendship with the Duke of Edinburgh giving him privileged access to Elizabeth II.
Based upon his unrivalled access to royal circles, this is the definitive and intimate biography of Queen Elizabeth II. Telling the story of her remarkable life and reign from a perspective unlike any other, it is his observations of the late monarch at close quarters that make this very personal account of her extraordinary life uniquely fascinating.
From her childhood in the 1920s and her war years at Windsor Castle, to the era of Harry and Meghan in the 2020s, and her death at Balmoral, this is both a record of a tumultuous century of royal history and a truly intimate portrait of a remarkable woman.
Told with a refreshing dose of humour and moving honesty, Elizabeth is the must-read biography of the longest-serving monarch in English history.

Pioneers, Settlers, Villagers, and Warriors: Excavations at Ronaldsway Airport, Isle of Man
During 2008 and 2009, Oxford Archaeology completed an extensive campaign of archaeological excavation at Ronaldsway Airport, Isle of Man, as part of a programme of runway and taxiway extension, and other airport improvements, undertaken by the Isle of Man Airport Division (part of the Isle of Man Government Department of Transport). This investigation uncovered a range of highly significant archaeological remains that complement other important discoveries made at the airport in the mid-twentieth century, which have figured prominently in discussions of the archaeology of the island.This volume presents details of these recent discoveries, which included an extremely rare Mesolithic dwelling dating to the end of the ninth millennium cal BC, representing the island’s earliest known house, along with Mesolithic pits and artefact scatters. Other important discoveries included Neolithic and earlier Bronze Age timber structures, and well-preserved elements of a later Bronze Age ‘village’, which contained domestic roundhouses, ancillary buildings, and workshops engaged in the casting of bronze and lead objects. Evidence relating to an unenclosed Iron Age settlement was also identified, as well as two important Iron Age burials, one of which contained an Iron Age ‘warrior’ who had been graphically killed during an act of interpersonal violence. Other recorded remains, dated to the later medieval and postmedieval periods and furnish evidence for the form of the agricultural landscape that existed prior to the construction of the modern airport.This volume is the result of a multi-disciplinary approach to the archaeology, involving detailed analyses of buried remains, artefacts, and environmental remains, with the work of a range of authors from Oxford Archaeology, as well as several external specialists. The results greatly enhance an understanding of the archaeology of the Isle of Man, and, more generally, provide important information on prehistoric settlement, contacts, and connections in the Irish Sea region, and along Britain’s western seaboard.

How Not to Die (Too Soon)
Have you ever questioned why, despite the avalanche of self-help books and optimization hacks, we remain embroiled in multiple global health crises? Populations worldwide are gaining life-shortening excess weight (even in poorer countries), and water contamination is rampant (even in richer countries). In such dire circumstances, a gratitude journal won’t help. The stark reality is that we’ve been sold a monumental lie. The obsession with individual health optimization has distracted us from the real game-changer: holding governments accountable for policies that can significantly extend our lifespans. How Not to Die (Too Soon) is a vital, transformative guide that shifts the focus from individual responsibility to societal accountability. It’s time to demand the changes that will save lives.

This book nourishes me with its nonsense and makes my spirit sing." - Merlin Sheldrake, author of Entangled Life.
Allies at War
After the fall of France in June 1940, only Britain stood between Hitler and total victory. Desperate for allies, Winston Churchill did all he could to bring the United States into the conflict, drive the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany apart, and persuade neutral countries to resist German domination.
By 1942, after the German invasion of Russia and Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour, the British-Soviet-American alliance was in place. But it was an incongruous coalition, divided by ideology and riven with mistrust and deceit. Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin were partners in the fight against Hitler, yet they were also rivals who disagreed on strategy, imperialism and the future of Europe.
Through an unprecedented range of vivid first-hand accounts and unpublished material, we enter the rooms where the critical decisions were made - revealing the political drama behind the military events. Compelling, fast-paced narrative history at its best, Allies at War offers a completely fresh perspective on the Second World War and origins of the Cold War.
