In the searing finale to the iconic Bridge Kingdom series, the battle for Ithicana comes to an epic conclusion-from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Fate Inked in Blood.
A fugitive on the run, Ahnna has one goal: return to Ithicana with warning of the greatest threat her homeland has ever faced. But the man who broke her heart is hunting at her heels, and James wants more than justice. He wants revenge.
To prove his loyalty to his family, James ventures into dangerous territory to capture his father's killer. But the longer he follows Ahnna's trail, the more his certainty of her guilt is tested-and the more the passion they once shared reignites.
As war brews, Ahnna and James discover that the real enemy isn't each other. With their loyalties on opposing sides of the battle to come, James and Ahnna must choose where their hearts lie: on the battlefield, or in each other's arms.

Ballot
Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. Ballot examines the psychological, cultural, and political significance of voting in an increasingly anti-voting climate. Armed with her personal experiences as a poll worker, electoral organizer, and activist, Anjali Enjeti unspools a timely narrative about the precarious state of the ballot during one of the most tumultuous political eras in US history, and recounts the astonishing events leading up to the 2024 presidential election. Enjeti lays out the growing challenges for voters in battleground states, where rightwing legislatures have introduced staggering numbers of voter suppression bills and redrawn district lines, all to disenfranchise as many Black and other marginalized voters as possible. As her account of the history and stakes of election integrity shows, the aftershocks of the Capitol insurrection on January 6, 2021 have manifested most egregiously on the four corners of the ballot.

Archaeological Excavations at Irmis Rka: An Investigation of a Multi-Layered Settlement in Southwest Georgia
This volume presents the results of the 2020 season excavations conducted by the Georgian National Museum at the multi-layered settlement of Irmis Rka, located in the Samtskhe-Javakheti province in southwest Georgia. Excavations on the site have confirmed the presence of pits and domestic architecture from the Early Bronze Age Kura-Araxes Culture, as well as deposits of the subsequent Bedeni Culture, along with abundant related materials. The site reveals signs of occupation during the Late Bronze-Early Iron Age, with evidence of fortification and various artefacts. Additionally, medieval activities have been documented. The site demonstrates the full evolution of the Kura-Araxes tradition, offering perspectives to illustrate its gradual changes and development. One of the site's most significant aspects is the presence of the Bedeni culture, marking its first appearance in this area. While excavations at Irmis Rka are ongoing, the results presented here contribute new data to a wide range of discussions.
Porcupines
‘A dazzling mother-daughter story’ Jenny Jackson, author of Pineapple Street'Funny, acerbic, and wonderfully playful: a novel to sink into' NAOMI WOOD, author of Mrs. Hemingway'Destined to become an instant classic. Richly drawn characters in an immigrant journey as old as America herself' ADRIANA TRIGIANI, author of The View From Lake ComoLos Angeles, 2001. Sonia is raising her daughter, Mila, alone in the sunny but somnolent suburbs of LA. Her days are a blur of not-quite-illegal business activities, avoiding other moms, and baking birthday cakes laced with rum: minor mistakes that nevertheless remind her she doesn’t belong. Mila, meanwhile, is juggling violin and swimming lessons and navigating the treacherous social politics of school – all the while trying to get her mother to share something, anything, about her past. But there are just too many things that Mila doesn’t know:She doesn’t know that her mother grew up in Soviet Hungary (where getting your hands on a banana was one of the greatest thrills in life)She doesn’t know that her mother has a sister called Rina (whom she hasn’t spoken to in 10 years)The only thing she does know about her father is that he was a ‘good time’ (according to her mother)Crucially, she doesn’t know that there is a very good reason why her mother dodges everyone, from traffic cops to vice principals. So, Mila concocts a scheme to get her mother, and the man Mila is kind of sure must be her father to reconnect. It involves corralling Sonia into chaperoning an orchestra of ten-year-olds (most of whom seem to be called Megan) on a road trip from LA to San Francisco, and it may just cause their carefully constructed lives to implode. Moving between Budapest before the fall of the Berlin Wall, Washington, DC in the tense years of the Cold War and the bright sunshine of early 2000s Los Angeles, Porcupines is an irresistible novel about mothers and daughters, belonging and reinvention, the things we carry with us, and those we tell ourselves we’ve left behind.
Into the Badlands
In the summer of 1989 John Williams embarked on an epic journey through a deeply troubled USA. A right-wing Republican administration seemed bent on rolling back the advances of the civil rights era; the Supreme Court were partially reversing the Roe vs Wade ruling on abortion; criminals from the Central Park rapist to the serial killers Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacey were all over the news. Who did Williams turn to make sense of all this? America's crime writers - that's who. He talked to novelists like James Ellroy and Elmore Leonard, Sara Paretsky and James Lee Burke, and visited the places they write about, like Los Angeles and Detroit, Chicago and New Orleans. The result was an instant cult classic that remains deeply relevant today: both an incisive and funny travelogue and a revealing guide to the lives and works of America's finest crime writers, caught at their peak.

Veľká blondínka a iné poviedky
Hoci patrí medzi najvýraznejšie postavy americkej literatúry prvej polovice 20. storočia, v našich končinách zostáva Dorothy Parker takmer neznáma. Jej autorský rukopis je pritom nezameniteľný – ostrý, vtipný, citlivý a zároveň sarkastický. Jej básne, poviedky a fejtóny pre časopis The New Yorker sú nielen detailným obrazom americkej mestskej inteligencie, ale aj prenikavou obžalobou dobového rasizmu a patriarchálnych vzťahov. I keď sa Dorothy Parker preslávila najmä svojím humorom, jej poviedky dokazujú, že ho používala najmä ako zbraň spoločenskej kritiky, ktorá dodnes nestratila nič zo svojej naliehavosti.
Veľká blondínka a iné poviedky prináša výber z autorkinej prózy prvýkrát v slovenčine.
