The Seventh Sister
From the author of The Madness comes a haunting folk horror fable of lost sisters, old gods, and the terrible power of belief left to rot in the woods. After the tragic death of their parents, the seven Ward sisters are sent to live with their grandmother on the remote forest island of Beltane, a place suspended between time and shadow. What begins as an attempt to mend their fractured lives soon twists into a waking nightmare, where grief bleeds into childhood fantasy and ancient rites awaken a dark and eerie devotion to Daudir, the Forgotten God of the Wood. When another cruel tragedy strikes, the sisters are left to fend for themselves, learning to live with death as a constant, lurking presence. The fragile world they’ve carved splinters beneath the weight of isolation, and the forest around them grows restless…Years later, a cryptic letter summons the surviving sisters home. Drawn back into the wild embrace of their dangerous faith, they confront a truth more terrible than memory, and the dreadful secret that waits, silent and sentient, in the depths of the all-seeing trees. This lyrical and haunting folk horror explores how trauma can root itself in the soil of childhood, how love can curdle into obsession, and how gods, especially forgotten ones, never stay buried for long. But at its heart, it’s about sisters: how they fracture, survive, return, and reckon with what they’ve made together.
Unanxious
Now in paperback! A book for overthinkers by an overthinker. Learn to start living a life you create—no longer burdened by the need to numb yourself from feelings of anxiety and burnout—through insightful stories, journal prompts, and down-to-earth advice from artist and international best-selling author of Unlearn, Humble The Poet. "3 PAGES IN, YOU'LL FEEL 1,000 LBS LIGHTER."— Jay Shetty, #1 New York Times Best-Selling Author“Life doesn’t begin after the obstacles, life is the obstacles, and we have to unlearn the idea that we need, or would even want, a life free of chaos, stress, and anxiety. We grow from facing challenges and exploring our limits.” This book is for the overthinkers struggling with overwhelm, burnout, and anxiety. If that’s you—sipping from a half-empty glass and staring at your phone on the sidelines of your own life—then this book will remind you that you are not alone and share tools to change your life (and your mind). Unanxious encourages readers to face their own stressors and triggers head-on with research-backed techniques and journal prompts. Stories from the author’s recent lessons in facing fears by pushing his own boundaries—from ice baths, hot yoga, and ayahuasca journeys to moving to a new city and forging meaningful connections with family and friends—inspire and empower you to stop numbing and avoiding, and start embracing the discomfort and doing what you want to do. With a beginner’s mindset approach and a vulnerable sensibility, Humble walks alongside you as you journey inward, learning from his mistakes and delivering words of wisdom less like a sage on a mountaintop and more like your most introspective friend.

Release Me
The searing second volume in a new series set in the #1 global bestselling Shatter Me universe ten years after the fall of The Reestablishment.
Rosabelle Wolff had a plan. Now she wants revenge. To save her sister she needs to get back home and destroy the system that created her.
Rosabelle's greatest strength is her ability to deaden her mind and body; it's the only way to survive the surveillance state of Ark Island. But lately her heart has been beating harder; her thoughts are spiraling; her defenses are coming undone. And there's only one person to blame. James Anderson had a plan. Now he has nothing but problems.
Rosabelle might be the ally they need in a fight against The Reestablishment, but no one wants to trust an enemy assassin. It doesn't help that Rosabelle's not much of a talker, doesn't work well in groups, and kills people on instinct. Taking her side has cost James nearly everything-but keeping her alive might help save his world. If only he could convince his older brother.
Aaron Warner Anderson has a headache.
Something dark is coming, and Rosabelle's arrival is just a prelude. In her, he sees shades of himself he can't trust, and worse: he can no longer get a read on the girl. She's a dead battery, emanating no emotional feedback.
At least not until James walks into a room...Volcanic tension, breathless reveals, breakneck action-and a dystopian world that never stops raising the stakes: Welcome back to The New Republic.

Following years of a life lived as a wife and mother, Annie is gifted French lessons with twenty-six-year-old local French tutor, Thierry. As time passes and the lessons progress, she finds herself unexpectedly vulnerable to the charms of a man closer in age to her teenage daughter than to her own. A new life for Annie emerges, one she could never have foreseen . . .
Told over the course of one year through the shifting perspectives of wife, husband, lover, best friend and children, Walger paints a contradictory, nuanced portrait of a woman who walks away from every role that tradition and society have expected of her.
Skorzeny - Život na hraně, 3. vydání
„Láká mne neobyčejný způsob života,“ zapsal si vídeňský student Otto Skorzeny v době, kdy jeho tvář zdobila první jizva z buršáckého souboje. Jeho přání se naplnilo. Elitního příslušníka SS, Hitlerova osobního oblíbence a specialistu na nejtajnější operace (jen namátkou: osvobození Mussoliniho, únos Horthyho syna, pokusy o zabití Josipa Broze-Tita či nasazení německých jednotek v amerických uniformách při ardenské ofenzivě) nazval velitel spojeneckých armád generál Dwight D. Eisenhower „nejnebezpečnějším mužem Evropy“.
Autor svou předchozí knihu Já, Otto Skorzeny…! obohatil o dramatické zpracování poválečného období, kdy Otto Skorzeny v různých koutech světa splétal temnou pavučinu neonacistických a protidemokratických intrik. Skorzeny se během svého života mnohokrát stal záhadami opředenou legendou. Pohled pod její povrch je strhujícím příběhem člověka, který svou nespornou odvahu a inteligenci za všech okolností, tedy za války i po ní, nabídl do služeb zla.

Za časů první republiky se loupilo, vraždilo a kradlo stejně jako v dobách předešlých i budoucích. Některé z těchto starých smutných příběhů vám chce přiblížit i tato knížka. Dočtete se například, kdo zavraždil dva řezníky u Kardašovy Řečice, proč musel zemřít oblíbený trafikant v Mladé Boleslavi rukou vraha, kdo zavraždil manželku učitele o jejím svátku v moravských Trstěnicích nebo proč došlo k vyvraždění selské rodiny ve středočeských Ježovicích. Dozvíte se, jaký zločin spáchal strážník Václav Hejkal a proč musela zemřít vražednou rukou stará chudobná prodavačka v Přerově nad Labem. Přečtete si, jak skončila nešťastná láska mladého tankisty na Olomoucku a také kdo zastřelil továrníka Klímu v pražské Bubenči. A protože osud si někdy rád trochu zažertuje, dozvíte se také, jak neslavně dopadlo vloupání tří lupičů do liberecké tržnice.
A Dance of Lies - Hazugságok tánca
,,Nem vagyok toronyba zárt hercegnő.
Árnyék vagyok."
Vasalie Moran egykor Illian király udvarának táncosa volt - míg egy cellában nem találta magát, egy olyan bűnért, amelyet nem követett el. Miután túlélte a börtönben töltött éveket, hirtelen ismét a király elé rendelik. Illian alkut ajánl neki: ha kémként szolgálja őt a királyi találkozón, utána szabadon engedi.
Ahogy az uralkodó parancsai egyre véresebbé és kegyetlenebbé válnak - a lány pedig kénytelen elárulni és bántani a hozzá közel állókat - rájön, hogy a szörnyeteg, akit szolgál, talán csak alattvalója egy még nagyobb szörnyetegnek...
Miközben a világ, amelyet ismert, összeomlani készül, a volt táncos kénytelen szövetséget kötni Illian testvérével és legnagyobb ellenségével, Kelet hírhedt királyával.
Ahogy a két fivér közötti viszály elhatalmasodik, és ő két tűz közé kerül, múltjának rettenetes igazsága napvilágot lát. És ha túl akarja élni ezt a kalandot, el kell döntenie, kiben bízik, kiért harcol, és mennyit hajlandó feláldozni a lelkéből.
Brittney Arena első magyarul megjelenő regénye egy lenyűgöző romantikus fantasy a szívfájdalmat követő reményről, titkokról, árulásról és szabadságvágyról.
Empire and Nation in the City
To curb the influence of minority populations and "outside enemies," the Ottoman government implemented new and experimental Tanzimat reforms within the empire’s center and provincial regions. By the 1860s, the city of Rusçuk in present-day Bulgaria and capital of the Ottoman Danube province became a test case for this expansive reform movement within an urbanizing and contested peripheral landscape. In Empire and Nation in the City, Mehmet Çelik traces how the Danube province and Rusçuk, in particular, experienced a series of swift political transitions from a "modernized" Ottoman administration, to a Russian provisional government, and finally to a Bulgarian nation-state. Çelik examines the transformative effects of each political system, arguing that Bulgarian nationalism was not a uniform ideology, but a flexible and mutable one that engaged multiple loyalties—Bulgarian and Ottoman among them. To understand these competing loyalties, he explores the diverse religious and multiethnic makeup of Rusçuk and the multifaceted responses to imperial control, nationalist sympathies, and political movements. Rather than assess Ottoman rule and Bulgarian nationhood as separate periods, Çelik bridges these moments to understand the continuity of Ottoman reforms within a burgeoning Bulgarian nation.
