Breakout
Trapped at a luxurious resort off the coast of Florida, a group of elite teens are about to have a spring break they will never forget … but not all of them are coming home. The star-studded team of authors behind New York Times bestsellers Blackout and Whiteout returns with a thrillerfull of intrigue, betrayal, and heart-stopping romance. For Thurgood Marshall Academy's best and brightest–five friends who've been thick as thieves since kindergarten–this spring break is all about forgetting: they want nothing more than to wash away last year's tragedy, and the human-shaped hole it left in their friend group. It's a hole the new kid, Anthony Brooks, seems to fit right into. So when he invites the Five to join him on a private island for a week at his dad's luxury resort, they agree with zero hesitation. No one's counting on a freak tropical storm swooping in and killing the vibe. And speaking of killing, they're also ill-prepared for the mounting collection of dead bodies… including (another) one of their own. As their dream trip unravels, everything they tried to leave behind–secrets, lies, betrayals, dead best friends–seems to be washing up on the shore of their lives for everyone to see. Will any of them make it out alive? From the bestselling, award-winning team behind Blackout and Whiteout—Dhonielle Clayton, Tiffany D. Jackson, Nic Stone, Angie Thomas, Ashley Woodfolk, and Nicola Yoon—comes a thriller that begs the question: is it possible to outrun the worst thing you've ever done?

As compelling as a spy thriller' SIMON SEBAG MONTEFIOREIn September 2022, Scandinavian seismologists detected what seemed to be a huge undersea earthquake or volcanic eruption.

Could Putin himself have been behind it?

The Great Auk
The life, death and afterlife of one of the true icons of extinction, the Great AukThe great auk was a flightless, goose-sized bird superbly adapted for life at sea. Fat, flush with feathers and easy to capture, the birds were in trouble whenever sailors visited their once-remote breeding colonies. Places like Funk Island, off north-east Newfoundland, became scenes of unimaginable slaughter, with birds killed in their millions. By 1800 the auks of Funk Island were gone. A scramble by private collectors for specimens of the final few birds then began, a bloody, unthinking destruction of one of the world’s most extraordinary species. But their extinction in 1844 wasn’t the end of the great auk story, as the bird went on to have a remarkable afterlife; skins, eggs and skeletons became the focus for dozens of collectors in a story of pathological craving and unscrupulous dealings that goes on to this day. In a book rich with insight and packed with tales of birds and of people, Tim Birkhead reveals previously unimagined aspects of the bird’s life before humanity, its death on the killing shores of the North Atlantic, and the unrelenting subsequent quest for its remains. The great auk remains a symbol of human folly and the necessity of conservation. This book tells its story.

Menšia a väčšia legenda osvätom Gerardovi biskupovi
Postava svätého Gerarda, jedného z najvýznamnejších predstaviteľov uhorskej cirkvi v 11. storočí, púta pozornosť z viacerých perspektív. Gerard je jedným z mála vzdelancov pôsobiacich v raných stredoeurópskych kresťanských kráľovstvách a kniežatstvách, ktorých dielo sa čiastočne zachovalo.
Prostredníctvom vzácneho teologicko-filozofického spisu, úvah či „rozjímania“svätého Gerarda (Deliberatio Gerardi) – zachovaného v jedinom stredovekom rukopise – máme možnosť nahliadnuť do autentických myšlienok, úvah a biblických interpretácií prvého čanádskeho biskupa.
Idealizovaný obraz o osobnosti svätého Gerarda možno zároveň nájsť v legendách o svätom Gerardovi. Obe legendy sú unikátnym svedectvom o dobe poslednej veľkej konfrontácie pohanskej tradície a nastupujúceho kresťanstva v Uhorskom kráľovstve. Legendy o svätom Gerardovi však možno považovať a jza pramene, ktoré približujú okolnosti a pozadie vzniku a postupného šírenia Gerardovho kultu. Dve legendy, pravdepodobne z 12. a 14. storočia, sú súčasne dokladom genézy hagiografického žánru v Uhorsku a poodhaľujú aj zámery a motívy samotných autorov legiend.
Nová latinsko-slovenská edícia, obsahujúca aj sprievodné štúdie o osobnosti a dobe svätého Gerarda, prináša prvý slovenský preklad oboch legiend o svätom Gerardovi.

EXODUS: The Helium Sea
The epic conclusion of the far-future Archimedes Engine duology by legendary author Peter F. Hamilton. For millennia, the Crown Dominion has been at relative peace, with the Celestials in control and the human population little better than serfs. But now the Crown Dominion is facing a crisis of epic proportions – one that could change the balance of power in the Centauri Cluster forever – as an exiled faction that has been waiting for seven thousand years beyond the Helium Sea has returned to claim its vengeance. For Finn and his human allies, who have ended up at the center of this conflict through either circumstance or manipulation, this is an unprecedented opportunity. If they can band together, they may be able to outwit the Celestials and finally earn their fellow humans a place of independence and power in the Crown Dominion. But first they must locate and master ancient artifacts of immense power that could give them a needed edge in the conflict ahead – all while ducking the forces that are determined to knock them off the board for good. * * *Praise for Exodus: The Archimedes Engine‘A perfect balance of ingenious ideas and intricate execution.
