We Do Not Part
Like a long winter’s dream, this haunting and visionary new novel from 2024 Nobel Prize winner Han Kang takes us on a journey from contemporary South Korea into its painful history.
Beginning one morning in December, We Do Not Part traces the path of Kyungha as she travels from the city of Seoul into the forests of Jeju Island, to the home of her old friend Inseon. Hospitalized following an accident, Inseon has begged Kyungha to hasten there to feed her beloved pet bird, who will otherwise die.
Kyungha takes the first plane to Jeju, but a snowstorm hits the island the moment she arrives, plunging her into a world of white. Beset by icy wind and snow squalls, she wonders if she will arrive in time to save the bird – or even survive the terrible cold which envelops her with every step. As night falls, she struggles her way to Inseon’s house, unaware as yet of the descent into darkness which awaits her.
There, the long-buried story of Inseon’s family surges into light, in dreams and memories passed from mother to daughter, and in a painstakingly assembled archive documenting a terrible massacre on the island seventy years before.
We Do Not Part is a hymn to friendship, a eulogy to the imagination and above all an indictment against forgetting.

Dragonborn
A New York Times bestseller, meet the electric new fantasy series for fans of Skandar and the Unicorn Thief and Impossible Creatures, perfect for readers aged 9-12.
Life is no fun for Alex Evans. Ever since her dad's death, her overprotective mother has smothered her with unbreakable rules and unspoken fears. When the frustration inside Alex finally gets too big to bear, it rushes to the surface.
And flames spill from her mouth.
Because Alex is a dragon. One of the many who live among us, unless something awakens their true nature. Led by the mighty Oliphos to the legendary island of Skralla, Alex must now train alongside fierce, frightening dragon children, if she is to unlock the power of her birthright.
But other dragons are rising too. Drak Midna, the greatest dragon of all, is preparing a war against the human world, and Alex has to be good enough for this fight, or we all will burn . . .
The Coming Storm
A prescient, thoughtful and chilling examination of the current state of the world.
If there are lessons from history, now is the time when we need to heed them, so that we do not end up in another Great Power war because of the fatal combinations of jingoism, fear, fatalism, and sheer stupidity that set off the first major war of the 20th century.
The great majority of people alive today have come of age in a world of remarkable stability, presided over by either one or two superpowers. This is not to say the world has been peaceful; but it has to an extent been predictable. As an increasing number of Great Powers now jostle for regional supremacy our world has become more fragile, unpredictable – and combustible.
To understand the threats that face us in this complex new terrain, we must look to the lessons of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century – a time when Great Powers clashed and sought regional dominance, when nationalism and populism were on the rise, and many felt that globalization had failed them: a time, in other words, that carries eerie parallels with our own.
Řeka odnáší stíny stromů
Řeka odnáší stíny stromů je sbírkou tiché, všímavé poezie, která vyrůstá z každodenního okouzlení krajinou a městskou periférií. Filip Hrazdil v krátkých, přesných básních, volně inspirovaných poetikou haiku, zachycuje pomíjivost okamžiků, ročních dob i lidské blízkosti. Minimalistický jazyk a zdrženlivá obraznost dávají vyniknout tomu, co obvykle zůstává nepovšimnuto – tichu, paměti a křehké přítomnosti.
Králův temný vzkaz 1: Osvobodit temnotu
Mladý válečník jménem Rezkin, vychován a vycvičen v dokonalém ústraní v tajné pevnosti na okraji severské divočiny království Ashai, je nečekaně vržen do vnějšího světa, když strašlivá bitva zničí vše, co zná. Aniž by chápal účel svého života a vyzbrojen mistrovskými zbraněmi, které mu tajemným způsobem odkázal sám zesnulý král, se mladý válečník pustí po jediné stopě, kterou má. Z bitvy unikl jeden elitní válečník, který by mohl vědět, kdo Rezkin je a kdo nese odpovědnost za masakr v mladíkově domově.
Growing Up with Addiction
Growing up with a parent’s addiction leaves ripple effects that can be felt well into adulthood. The trauma of familial dysfunction can weave into the fabric of your life, affecting relationships, parenting and work, and even leading to you questioning your own worth, mistrusting intimacy and feeling disconnected from yourself.
But it doesn’t have to stay this way. In this nurturing book, clinical psychologist Dr Tian Dayton draws on expertise from decades working with adult children of alcoholics, as well as her own personal experience, to empower you to embrace recovery and break the chain of intergenerational dysfunction. She will guide you as you examine how addiction shaped your family, understand the imprint it left on your childhood and discover tools to heal and thrive. You will learn to process attachment wounds, reconnect with your body, regulate emotions and move towards post-traumatic growth.
Grounded in research, enriched by client narratives and filled with practical exercises based on Dr Dayton's own Relational Trauma Repair (RTR) model, this book will allow you to recover from buried hurt and give your inner child a voice, illuminating the path towards a better future for yourself and your loved ones.

Megbocsáthatatlan bűnök, egy eltörölhetetlen átok és egy ártatlan család...
A héttagú Kamiki-család hosszas kutakodás után végre rálelt álmai otthonára. Hamar be is költöznek a gyönyörű, tágas, domb tetején álló házba, ám nem sok idejük marad kiélvezni a megtalált nyugalmat. Rejtélyes, megmagyarázhatatlan éjszakai zajok riogatják, borzalmas rémálmok gyötrik őket, és a rettenet megfoghatatlan érzése teszi pokollá napjaikat, ahogy rádöbbennek: rajtuk kívül van még valaki (vagy valami) az otthonukban.
A sötét, kíméletlen jelenlét ereje napról napra fokozódik, a családnak pedig nem marad más választása - ha életben akarnak maradni, fel kell venniük a harcot a gonosz entitással, amíg még nem késő.
A páratlan zseni, Oshikiri Rensuke félelmetes horrormangájában végre eredeti, japán kísértettörténetet élvezhetnek a magyar olvasók. Gyűjteményes kiadás extra fejezettel!

The Decline and Fall of the Human Empire
‘Brilliant’ – The Times‘Hugely informative and entertaining’ – New Scientist‘Put this at the head of your reading lists immediately’ – Eric IdleFrom the winner of the 2022 Royal Society Science Book Prize, a thrilling and thought-provoking account of the rise and fall of humankind. For the first time in over ten millennia, the rate of human population growth is slowing down. The global population is forecast to begin declining in the second half of this century, and in 10,000 years’ time our species will likely be extinct. In The Decline and Fall of the Human Empire, Henry Gee shows how we arrived at this crucial moment in history, beginning his story deep in the palaeolithic past and charting our dramatic rise from one species of human among many to the most dominant animal ever to live on Earth. But rapid climate change, a stagnating global economy, falling birth rates and an unexplainable decline in average human sperm count are combining to make our chances for longevity increasingly slim. There could be a way forward, but the launch window is narrow . . . Drawing on a dazzling array of the latest scientific research, Gee tells the extraordinary story of humanity with characteristic warmth and wit, and suggests how our exceptional species might avoid its tragic fate. ‘Like Jared Diamond meets Arthur C. Clarke with a dash of Douglas Adams’ – Philip Ball, author of How Life Works
