Starside
The stunning standard edition of Starside, with illustrated endpapers, a special hardcover case design and jacket effects. Enter the enchanting and deadly world of Starside, where swords have magic and power isn’t inherited – it’s claimed, from No. 1 New York Times bestselling author Alex Aster. Hundreds of years ago, a brutal war split a land in two. Starside is the realm of magic and immortals – the descendants of the gods, living in a power-rich paradise. Stormside is where mortals fight for scraps of that magic. Every fifty years, the gates between them open, and fifty challengers are allowed to journey across Starside on a deadly quest for magic that can heal, grant wealth or extend life. Everyone has their reasons for entering, but Aris has only one: vengeance against the gods who killed her family. Winning one of the fifty spots on the quest won’t be easy. An orphaned blacksmith’s apprentice, Aris doesn’t have the superior weapons of the heirs from the Great Houses. But the greatest swords, ones that contain power, are not inherited or bought – they are claimed, by both sides. And when Aris claims a great sword, it makes her not just a real competitor... but a target. Countless dangers await on Starside. With a blade most would kill to take, Aris can’t trust anyone. Especially not Harlan Raker, the merciless and mysterious knight who betrayed her years ago – and who may now be the key to her survival. But Aris is hiding a secret tied to her family’s death. And when it’s revealed, not even the gods will be able to stop what’s coming... Starside was an instant No. 1 Sunday Times bestseller w/e 4th April 2026.
Mollie Brumley's Civil War
Mollie Brumley, a thirteen-year-old orphan, was living on a farm in the mountainous Ozarks of northwest Arkansas when the Civil War broke out. In a borderland region on the northern periphery of slavery and the western edge of white settlement, her corner of Arkansas saw terrible destruction—but not primarily from fighting between opposing armies. Mollie Brumley's Civil War was one of guerilla warfare and outlawry, shifting loyalties, betrayals real and imagined, and, for some, death by starvation. In telling Mollie's story, drawing largely upon her 1901 autobiography, Theodore Catton offers a rare intimate look at the heroism and desperation of war conducted on the home front—all amidst the anything-but-ordinary romantic adventures of an adolescent who lived during an extraordinary time. In the course of this riveting narrative, Mollie—while still in her teens—falls in love with one Confederate soldier who is lost in battle, marries another who joins the Rebel guerrillas, and leaves the farm to become an army laundress during escalating guerrilla depredations against her home and family. Intertwined with Mollie's tale is that of Parthenia Hensley, an enslaved young woman living in the same rural community. The story of Parthenia and her white family of enslavers broadens Catton's portrait of a war-torn community of farmers on the edge of the Slave South. An unprecedented picture of the Civil War in the Trans-Mississippi West, Mollie Brumley's Civil War is also a remarkable coming-of-age story shaped by the fight against slavery—a fight that Mollie didn't choose but that finally influenced the person she became and the outcome of her life.

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.

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.

A Napkirály udvarában
Franciaországba csöppenünk, a Napkirály udvarába. Persze én azonnal bajba keveredek: a király tehetséges táncosnak hisz! Fel kell lépnem a királyi ünnepségen, ráadásul irigyem is akad: valaki tönkre akarja tenni a mulatságot mindenáron. Ezernyi fürtös parókára, ezt bizony nem hagyhatom!
Ezt a különleges utazást persze most is Kolumbusznak, az időutazó lakóbusznak köszönhettük. Ő visz el minket újra és újra a távoli múltba (olykor akaratom ellenére is!). Izgalmasan hangzik, nem igaz? Akkor tarts velünk te is! Rajta, essünk túl a formaságokon, írd alá az időutazó-szerződést (enélkül nincs indulás!), aztán öveket becsatolni, várnak minket a szuper szórakoztató kalandok!
Dal jsem ti oči, a tys je upřela do temnot
Oceňovaný folk horor z katalánských kopců oslavuje ženské tělo ve všech podobách a rozbíjí stereotypy o ženské identitě. br Zatuchlý vzduch statku prostupuje vůně tymiánu a obětovaného kozla. Stařičká Bernadeta umírá a ženy rodu Clavellových chystají hostinu, aby ji na druhém břehu přivítaly jaksepatří. V bujarém podsvětí se prolínají groteskní výjevy se vzpomínkami, které odhalují rodová tajemství. Matriarcha Joana kdysi uzavřela pakt s ďáblem, aby získala dokonalého muže. Jenže po veselce zjistila, že Bernadímu Clavellovi chybí jeden prst na noze, a tak svou část dohody nedodržela. Na všechny ženy z rodu proto padla kletba: Bernadeta vidí věci, které by neměla, Margarita je vzteklá, protože má tříčtvrteční srdce, a Blančina ústa bez jazyka připomínají prázdné hnízdo.br Vypravěčský hlas bloudí statkem jako vánek a lehce stírá hranice mezi mrtvými a živými, minulostí a přítomností, skutečností a tím, čemu chceme věřit. Legendy a rčení putují napříč generacemi, aby nám připomněly, kdo jsme. Odkud vychází světlo a kde číhá temnota.

Matters of Truth
In Matters of Truth, Carlo Agostoni explores the frames and narratives shaping our understanding of whistleblowing, truth-telling, and their cultural histories. Narratives of whistleblowing are stories of truth-telling, first and foremost, but they are also stories of complication and conflicts of interest. The whistleblower is remedy and cure for some and poison and treason for others. But the anchor of the whistleblower is the immensity of factuality?-?an anchor that pulls him down and turns him into a tragic hero. But truth-telling is not the dominant frame surrounding whistleblowing in media, scholarship, nor politics. One of the dominant frames used to describe whistleblowing is leaking. Frames are not just words; they constitute the cognitive structures we think with. Framing a social phenomenon as 'leaking'?taps into our neural circuitry and a hidden realm of deep narratives. It is therefore imperative to study these narratives and frames that rule our unconscious and yield moral narratives we are commonly unaware of -?especially with a sociocultural phenomenon such as whistleblowing. Drawing on a wealth of examples and a wide range of philosophers, sociologists, cognitive linguists, literary critics, historians, and social psychologists, Carlo Agostoni analyzes the cultural narratives about whistleblowers that ignite explosions of truth and justice and the frames we use to defame them -?both knowingly and unknowingly. Words matter. Narratives matter. Especially in matters of truth.
