The Luck of the Town
"Much more than a ghost story... One might say that Fox is haunted by the spirit of the place and time of which she writes, and she is able to reproduce in a remarkable way that sense of foreboding and mystery that all of us have experienced." The ArgusWhere once a Romano-British settlement sprawled across the hills in the north of England, there lies a modern town. Caught in a tense struggle between the growth of the university and industrial expansion, its fate veers towards the uncanny when a discovery is made beneath the old town hall. Into the possession of the university comes the skeleton of a woman, found buried along with a mysterious tablet bearing a cryptic message, and as the ratcheting tension between the townspeople is compounded by an unseasonal heat and sightings of a shadowlike figure haunting the streets, the vengeful grip of a long-buried curse pushes the town towards a night of flames and carnage.

Is God for Revolution?
Based on interviews with upper-middle-class Egyptian Muslims, Is God for Revolution? explores the ways in which political participation in the 2011 Egyptian revolution--and the emotions that came with it--changed the landscape of religious discourse and practice. Before the revolution, the interviewees found themselves in structures of culturally agreed-upon forms of religiosity. They were raised during what scholars call the "Islamic Awakening" of the late twentieth century and heeded the advice of religious figures that circulated freely in mass media. Visible markers of piety, such as the veil for women and beards for men, became commonplace. This all changed in one charged moment. In the wake of the uprising, Nareman Amin shows, revolutionary feelings--notably hope, disappointment, doubt, shock and anger-transformed their understandings of what it means to identify as pious Muslims. Is God for Revolution? is a book about social change in a time of political upheaval and uncertainty, specifically the relationship between affect, politics and Islam. It is a story about postrevolutionary agency, the emotional toll that this democratic experiment had on those who believed in the revolution and its ideals, and the transformative power of autonomy and emotion on young revolutionaries'' attitudes toward religious authorities and religious beliefs and practices.

Archer's Voice
I wanted to lose myself in the small town of Pelion, Maine. To forget everything I had left behind. The sound of rain. The blood. The coldness of a gun against my skin.
For six months, each breath has been a reminder that I survived-and my dad didn't. I'm almost safe again. But the moment I meet Archer Hale, my entire world tilts on its axis ... and never rights itself again.
Until I trespass into his strange, silent, and isolated world, Archer communicates with no one. Yet in his whiskey-colored eyes, something intangible happens between us. There's so much more to him than just his beauty, his presence, or the ways his hands communicate with me. On me.
But this town is mired in secrets and betrayals, and Archer is the explosive center of it all.
So much passion. And so much hurt. But it's only in Archer's silence that we might just find what we need to heal ... and live.
Includes an exclusive extended epilogue from Archer's POV!
Lies and Sorcery
The first unabridged English translation of the electrifying novel of secrets and delusions, from one of the greatest Italian writers of the twentieth century.
Elisa – orphaned as a child, raised by a ‘fallen woman’, fed by fairy tales – has lived in an outlandish imaginary world for years. When her guardian dies, she feels compelled to confront her family’s tortured and dramatic past, weaving the tale of her mother and grandmother through a history of intrigue, treachery, deception and desire. But as her saga of three generations of Sicilian women proceeds, it becomes something else entirely, taking in a whole legacy of oppression and injustice. By turns flamboyant and intense, raging and funny, Lies and Sorcery is a celebration of the female imagination, and the power of storytelling itself.
First published in 1948, Elsa Morante’s debut novel won the Viareggio Prize and earned her the lasting admiration of generations of writers from Italo Calvino and Natalia Ginzburg to Elena Ferrante.

Nauč nás modliť sa - oranžová
Modlitebník Nauč nás modliť sa prináša svieži pohľad na detskú modlitbu. Nejde o zbierku zaužívaných textov, ktoré sa opakujú celé generácie, ale o výber nových, aktuálnych a deťom blízkych modlitieb, ktoré oslovujú dnešného prvoprijímajúceho kresťana.
Každá tematická časť je uvedená krátkym, zrozumiteľným textom, ktorý deťom pomáha pochopiť, kedy a prečo sa môžu modliť – bez zbytočného moralizovania, jednoducho a prirodzene. Modlitby sú písané jazykom, ktorému deti rozumejú, a mnohé z nich vznikli priamo z ich vlastných slov a skúseností.
Modlitebník zároveň ponúka aj základné a prehľadne spracované časti formácie viery: pobožnosť krížovej cesty, ruženec, liturgiu svätej omše, prípravu na prvé sväté prijímanie formou otázok a odpovedí, prípravu na sviatosť pokánia, ako aj pobožnosť deviatich prvých piatkov. Vďaka tomu je vhodnou pomôckou pre farskú katechézu a prácu s deťmi v období prípravy na sviatosti.
Táto kniha chce deti povzbudiť, aby sa nebáli hovoriť s Bohom vlastnými slovami – úprimne, otvorene a tak, ako to cítia. Ukazuje im, že modlitba nemusí byť naučená naspamäť, ale môže byť živým rozhovorom, v ktorom môžu Bohu povedať všetko: radosť, obavy aj vďačnosť. Zároveň ich vedie k tomu, aby si vytvárali vlastný vzťah k modlitbe ako prirodzenej súčasti každého dňa.

Tieň nad lesom
Keď sa vo veľkom mravenisku nad obcou S. v oblasti Jämtland nájde mŕtve telo, kriminalistom v Strömsunde príde na pomoc s vyšetrovaním Olivia Rönningová.
Nájdenému mŕtvemu telu chýba hlava. Odtlačky prstov obete sa nenachádzajú v žiadnom úradnom registri a v tejto oblasti už vyše dvadsať rokov nenahlásili zmiznutie osoby. Miesto hrozného nálezu sa nachádza neďaleko starého kultového miesta, kde forenzní technici objavia stopy krvi.
Obcou S. sa šíri nepokoj. Nikto sa neopováži chodiť do lesa za bieleho dňa, nieto ešte po zotmení. Hoci v minulosti sa obec takmer vyľudnila, v priebehu posledných desaťročí sa opäť zaplnila novými obyvateľmi, ochrancami prírody, Štokholmčanmi aj Holanďanmi. Obyvatelia akceptovali cudzincov aj čudákov. A Bolundovci, rodina neonacistov, sa držali v úzadí.
Dobré vzťahy, panujúce v obci, sú zrazu ohrozené. Miestni obyvatelia nespolupracujú a čoraz neochotnejšie odpovedajú na Oliviine otázky.
Na vyriešenie záhady si napokon musí prizvať na pomoc Toma Stiltona a Mette Olsäterovú.

Věrní a padlí 4: Hněv
Čtvrtá kniha z kultovní série Věrní a padlí od uznávaného autora fantasy Johna Gwynna
Události v Zemích vyhnanců vrcholí, válka dosahuje nových výšin. Král Nathair ovládl pevnost Drassil a tři ze sedmi Pokladů má ve svém držení. Společně s Calidem a svou spojenkyní, královnou Rhin, udělá Nathair cokoli, aby získal i zbývající Poklady. Se všemi sedmi ve svém vlastnictví totiž může otevřít bránu do Zásvětí. Pak bude Asroth a jeho horda démonů konečně moci vtrhnout do Zemí vyhnanců a získat tělesnou podobu.
Corban byl mezitím zajat Jötuny — obry válečníky, kteří vyrážejí do boje na obrovských medvědech. Corbanovo vojsko bylo rozprášeno a on musí, pokud má přežít, najít nové spojence. Ale dokáže si získat důvěru znepřátelených obřích klanů? Nějak to dokázat musí — má-li být schopen čelit hrozbě, kterou představuje Nathair.
V sázce je jeho život — a s ním i osud Zemí vyhnanců.

Dosť dobrá
Memoáre prvej Američanky, ktorá zdolala Everest bez kyslíka.
Keď Melissa Arnot Reidová ako dvadsaťsedemročná prijala tesne pod vrcholom Everestu kyslíkovú masku, pocítila zdrvujúce zlyhanie. No práve tento moment sa stal začiatkom jej najťažšieho výstupu – k vlastnému ja. V memoároch Dosť dobrá mapuje svoju cestu od búrlivého detstva cez adrenalínové výpravy až po historický výkon: ako prvá Američanka vystúpila na Mount Everest bez doplnkového kyslíka.
Vo svete, kde dominujú muži, si vydobyla rešpekt silou, vytrvalosťou a nezlomnou vôľou. No jej najväčšími výzvami neboli výškové tábory, ale vnútorné priepasti – strata, samota a hľadanie odpustenia.
Strhujúce memoáre o tom, čo znamená uspieť – nie pred svetom, ale pred sebou samým.
