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.

Self-Portrait as the "i" in Florida
". . . formally various and deliciously propulsive." —Kaveh AkbarA love letter to Miami and a meditation on fatherhood, Self-Portrait as the “i” in Florida paints a vivid picture of contemporary South Florida in all its contradictions and beauty. Selected by Major Jackson as the winner of the Donald Justice Poetry Prize, Cunningham’s second collection weaves together ecological and familial landscapes, capturing both the spectacle—burning sugarcane fields, snake farms, chaotic highways—and the daily rituals that bind a family: school drop-offs, sick days, and small kindnesses. Blending formalist and free verse, the book becomes both an inquiry into belonging and a celebration of the essential everyday moments that define a life. At once panoramic and deeply personal, Cunningham writes with a documentarian’s eye and a father’s heart.

Hybridy a kyborgové mezi přírodou a kulturou
Vratislav Moudr se ve své knize věnuje vztahu přírody a kultury, přičemž vychází z evoluční ontologie Josefa Šmajse, která zdůrazňuje jejich nesourodou povahu. Tuto perspektivu autor textu rozvíjí zavedením konceptu hybridity, jenž umožňuje lépe porozumět strukturám vznikajícím na pomezí těchto dvou řádů. Moudr se zaměřuje nejen na genetické, psychické a ekosystémové hybridy, ale také na roli člověka jako jedinečného hybridu. Člověk pro něj není jen hybridem. Díky transformaci lidské psychiky kulturou, která proniká celou její šíří i hloubkou, ho v textu pojímá jako kyborga. Osobnost člověka je tu chápána jako sociokulturní produkt, kterým kultura člověka disciplinuje a řídí jeho činnost v souladu se svými systémovými zájmy udržovat se v čase a růst.
Kniha představuje nejen pečlivý návrh revize evoluční ontologie, ale zároveň také odpověď na některé výzvy spojené se sociálním konstrukcionalismem. Její autor ukazuje, že zatímco konstrukcionalismus mnohdy rozpouští hranice mezi přírodou a kulturou, přístup evoluční ontologie naopak zdůrazňuje jejich nesourodost a umožňuje uchopit hybridní entity včetně kyborga jako reálné produkty interakce těchto dvou řádů. V souladu s apelem evoluční ontologie kniha volá po zásadní změně směřující k biofilní kultuře, která by respektovala jak konfliktní vztah kultury s přírodou, tak také mimořádné postavení hybridů a člověka v tomto vztahu. Přispívá tak k debatě o udržitelnosti a odpovědnosti za příští generace lidí.
KinnPorsche (Novel) Vol. 6
Ever since the tragic death of his parents, Porsche’s life has been a balancing act between attending college and bartending to support his younger brother and pay off his deadbeat uncle’s gambling debt. When he witnesses a gang of thugs attacking a handsome young man in the alley behind his bar, he’s reluctant to intervene—until he’s offered fifty thousand baht to help the stranger escape. The stranger is known as Kinn, the second son of a notorious crime family. Impressed with Porsche’s fighting skills, Kinn makes a proposition: if Porsche agrees to become his personal bodyguard, his debts will be absolved. Porsche doesn’t want any trouble, especially not the kind of trouble Kinn deals in. But Kinn always gets what he wants. The KinnPorsche novel series, originally written in the Thai language, inspired the wildly popular and internationally acclaimed live-action drama, KinnPorsche: The Series, which Teen Vogue called “a thrilling, lush and gargantuan tale of love and sin” (2022). Seven Seas is releasing the first-ever English edition of the original novels with new internal illustrations, similar to the Chinese-language books in the Seven Seas Danmei label. Recommended for Mature Audiences. The final volume!

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.
Systémy něhy
Nepodobá se někdy lidský život mechanismu? A kolik něhy se může skrývat ve stroji?
Mladá pianistka Ada Fischerová má před sebou zářnou kariéru, jádro její existence je však vyhaslé. Když byla malá, vzal ji otec na výstavu automatů — samohybných figurín, zdánlivě nadaných vlastní vůlí, ale ve skutečnosti stále opakujících jediné naprogramované gesto. Tento zážitek na Adu silně zapůsobil — jako by spatřila memento celého svého budoucího života.
Co vlastně sleduje svou cílevědomostí? Nesnaží se jen zavděčit mrtvému otci? Jeho ztrátou se v ní cosi nenapravitelně porouchalo. Jediný dlouhodobý „milostný vztah“ udržuje se svým hudebním nástrojem a jako by se sama pomalu stávala strojem, automatem plnícím svou jedinou smutnou funkci.
Adin příběh zrcadlí osudy lidí, kteří se také oddali nejrůznějším systémům — hudbě, šachovnici, algoritmu. Jako vynálezce metronomu Johann Nepomuk Mälzel, jako skladatel a pianista Alexandr Nikolajevič Skrjabin nebo jako Adin milenec Hans.

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.
