Anděl královny Konstancie
V čele trestné výpravy přijíždí do Hodonína v roce 1236 soudce Pardus Tvrdišovec, aby vyšetřil, kdo a proč zabil královnina rychtáře. Pardus se narodil v nedalekých Tvrdonicích, zná tedy povahu zdejších lidí, kteří stále věří na staré bohy a uctívají vědmy žijící v močálech kolem Hodonína. Královna Konstancie ho povolala, aby zajistil i bezpečí pro její nové úředníky, kteří mají za úkol udělat ve městě pořádek. Situace se vyhrotí, když do Hodonína přijede starý františkánský mnich a spolčí se s tamějším fanatickým knězem. Jejich cílem je potlačit přetrvávající projevy pohanství.
Román je inspirovaný listinou královny Konstancie Uherské, v níž povyšuje Hodonín na královské město a uděluje mu široká práva a současně vyzývá k potrestání vrahů jejího rychtáře Petra.

Jersey Jockeys and Guernsey Gallopers
As of 2025, there are 59 racecourses operating in Britain, from Perth in Scotland to Newton Abbot in Devon, and another 28 in Ireland. Almost all of them have had a book written about their history, as have many more historic, now defunct, tracks. However, there are two racecourses, both in British Crown Dependencies, which do not have a book dedicated to their history. This is a notably odd omission as the islands they are on have enjoyed properly organised racing for almost 200 years - both reportedly began the sport in 1832 - hosting leading jockeys, trainers, owners and runners over the decades. Graham Sharpe and John Henwood's comprehensive and engaging Jersey Jockeys and Guernsey Gallopers: A History of Channel Islands Horse-Racing corrects this ridiculous racing omission. It explores how the tracks in the two Channel Islands - currently Les Landes in Jersey and L'Ancresse in Guernsey - developed and flourished over the years, although the ongoing future of the latter is seriously under threat.

Sage Talks
A collection of imaginative and insightful conversations with ancient deities, exploring the modern state of consciousnessThe modern world is rife with confusion, a lack of faith, and general disorder: Why do people seem so lost? Why is there such dissonance and apparent chaos across the globe? Why is our perception of time – and reality – seemingly changing? What is the nature of this growing struggle and divisions within the modern worl? age Talks considers, debates, and answers these questions in a series of poignant, inspired interviews with deities from Pagan religions. Kingsley Dennis follows a different theme in each of his interviews, resulting in varied, unexpected, enlightening, revealing and often humorous conversations with deities from Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Hindu, and pagan figures. These include deities as Hecate, Eris, Horus, Aditi, Morpheus, Hermes, Ra, and many more. The book consists of twenty-five inspired conversations, each one based on a different topic such as the nature of chaos; the perception of time and reality; our disconnection from nature; our human struggle; and our need for healing, balance, and harmony. Accompanying each conversation is a reflection from the author, alongside a tale or story taken from ancient sources and placed into contemporary language and setting. For many of us, especially in today’s fast-paced, technologically driven, material world, there is no room for ‘conversation’, as inspired connection is expelled from human belief and acceptance. Sage Talks is a refreshing invitation to reconnect with the traditions of ancestors and bring the art of metaphysical conversation back into the contemporary world.

Reluctant Abolitionists
Britain abolished the death penalty for murder in 1965, but many of Britain's last colonies retained capital murder laws until the 1990s. In this book, James M. Campbell presents the first history of the death sentences imposed under British colonial rule in the late twentieth century; the decision-making processes that determined if condemned prisoners lived or died; and the diverse paths to death penalty abolition across the empire. Based on a rich archive of recently released government records, as well as legislative debates, court papers, newspapers and autobiographies, Reluctant Abolitionists examines connections between the death penalty, British politics, decolonisation and the rise of international abolitionist movements. Through analysis of murder trials, clemency appeals, executions and legal reforms across more than 30 British colonies, it reveals the limits of British opposition to the death penalty and the enduring connections between capital punishment and empire.

When the Forest Breathes
When the forest breathes out, we breathe in. When the forest thrives, we thrive.
The world-renowned forest ecologist Suzanne Simard has transformed our understanding of the profound intelligence and interconnectedness of trees. In When the Forest Breathes, she uncovers how the deep-rooted cycles of renewal that sustain the forest can also help us to protect our entire global ecosystem.
Raised in a family of loggers committed to sustainable stewardship of the land, Simard has watched as timber companies leave the forests of her native British Columbia vulnerable to wildfires and drought, threatening the crucial biodiversity that they support. But her groundbreaking research for the Mother Tree Project - one of the most ambitious forest ecology experiments of its kind - has the potential to chart a new course. The forest, she reveals, is a living symphony of finely honed cycles of birth, growth, death and rebirth that hold the key to protecting the natural world. Working closely with local Indigenous communities, whose sustainable practices have been largely ignored, Simard examines how holistic, regenerative forestry that preserves the cycles of the forest can help solve the global climate crisis.
Weaving together scientific discoveries and luminous storytelling, Simard's book is a call to rediscover our kinship with the natural world, and listen to the lessons of the forest.
An Enchanted World
Uncovering the vibrant spiritual life of Late AntiquityIn Late Antiquity (ca. 200–600 CE), the world was alive with unseen forces—divine agents who influenced every aspect of daily life. For most ordinary people, religion was not found in temples, synagogues, and churches, but in lived experience as they interacted with the supernatural in a world of uncertainty and danger. In An Enchanted World, Michael Satlow uncovers a shared spiritual landscape that stretched beyond the confines of Judaism, Christianity, and the pantheon of Greek and Roman deities. From healing rituals to protective amulets, spiritual practices were a matter of necessity, transcending religious labels. To get by in the world required being on good terms with the right supernatural beings and being able to ward off the bad ones. Rejecting traditional narratives that focus on institutional religion and theological divisions, Satlow presents a compelling case for viewing the period through the lens of “lived religion.” This was not a religion of abstractions formulated by rabbis and priests, but an enchanted world populated by divine beings who had as much—if not more—agency as any person. Drawing on archaeological evidence, historical documents, and a rich trove of magical texts, Satlow vividly reconstructs how ordinary people lived in a world that crackled with the energy of the supernatural. His account reimagines the spiritual history of Late Antiquity, centering shared human fears and aspirations and challenging preconceived notions about religious boundaries. With An Enchanted World, Satlow offers a fresh perspective on a transformative period—one that has much to teach us even today about the role that spirituality can play in the secular world.

Looting Hummingbirds
In the first quarter of the 20th century, Daniel Thaly of Dominica, then a British Caribbean colony, was one of France’s most celebrated poets. He was educated in Martinique and then at medical school in France before returning to Dominica. His illustrious reputation crumbled when radicals in the emerging anti-colonial Negritude movement criticised his work. From then on he wrote little. Here for the first time in English (and French) we can read a selection of his lyrical and passionate poems - many about Dominica - alongside an introduction that pieces together what little is known of his life.
Sympathy for Yahweh
In Kenya, underneath a hot tin roof in tropical heat, a voice in a dream literally tempted author Alan Wildsmith to interpret the Book of Job. In Sympathy for Yahweh, you join Alan - a practicing psychotherapist, writer, creative cookie, and complete biblical novice - on a dynamic journey of discovery.? Many feel alienated by biblical religious doctrines and dogma, especially if their spiritual experiences have been disregarded by others, by frameworks, or by interpretations of holy texts. Oddly enough, though, Alan discovered that when you seriously engage the Book of Job, the very foundations of organised religion shudder. With humour and self-reflection, and from unique perspectives, Ala? book will bring you into a fresh, vital, and most importantly, unshackled relationship with our Western God. I? not just the dogmatic side of religion that this book shakes up but also dogmatic scientism, which pervades the Western psyche, casting away intuitions, dreams, synchronicities, visions, and other felt senses as superfluous - the more feminine aspects of our psyche - and while on the journey he had with this biblical book, Alan found femininity a subtle yet strong theme. Sympathy for Yahweh is for anyone interested in philosophy, religion, spirituality, and psychology. If an atheist can find faith in this book, so can a religious zealot! Everyone is welcome.
