This Is Screwed Up, but I Was Reincarnated as a GIRL in Another World! (Manga) Vol. 18
Ren agrees to supervise Ed and a few boys as they train at Arnault Smithy. Though she loathes the idea at first, Ren soon finds herself deeply invested in seeing her pupils grow! She brings the fellas to the Creation Expo so that the public can judge the fruits of their long, hard, labor, but there will be more than creations exposed at the venue. The slow life may be heating up!
The Benign Ogre
The skeleton of an unknown and apparently unclassifiable very large hominid is unearthed in Brazil and smuggled back to England, where it is forensically examined by a senior government pathologist. By a coincidence, a few months later trappers engaged by a zoo on an animal conservation programme in Sumatra, encounter a huge manlike creature which can communicate with them. Clandestinely, one of the party manages to film and audio-tape the creature, which warns them not to try to entrap animals or it will destroy their stockade. It claims to be a protector of all life-forms. News of the alleged beast leaks out, despite attempts by various authorities to ridicule its existence. Many regard it as a hoax until irrefutable evidence is finally produced, when it becomes an almost godlike figurehead for a burgeoning environmental movement but is likewise regarded as an enemy of international business and commerce due to its uncompromising message of protecting the environment. Efforts are made by some to capture or even kill the being, whilst others, bewitched by their encounters with it, strive to protect both it and its message. Its name is Myamahatu.
Never a Hero - Sohasem hős
Az Only ?a Monster - Csak egy szörnyeteg folytatásában egy eltemetett múlt veszélybe sodorhatja az egész jövőt.
Joan véghez vitte a lehetetlent: visszaállította az idővonalat, megmentette a családját, és elpusztította a hőst, Nicket.
Csakhogy mindezért súlyos árat fizetett.
Ő emlékszik egyedül arra, hogy mi történt. Aaron, akit nehezen, de barátjává - vagy talán még többé - tett, most az ellensége, és meg akarja ölni. Nick, akit szeretett, idegenné vált, még a nevét sem ismeri. És csak Joan tudja, hogy egy könyörtelen, veszedelmes ellenség továbbra is ólálkodik körülöttük.
Nem telik el sok idő, és egy halálos támadás után ismét menekülni kényszerül a szörnyek világában. Ráadásul közben rábukkan egy titokra is, ami mindenkit veszélybe sodorhat, akit szeret.
Szerelem és család, áldozatok és szörnyű döntések közt őrlődve Joan kénytelen összegyűjteni régi szövetségeseit, hogy szembeszálljanak minden idők legveszélyesebb ellenségével, és újra megmentsék az idővonalat.
Roztříštění
Po neúspěšném pokusu o sebevraždu je matka tří dětí hospitalizována v psychiatrické léčebně. Její patologická osobnost předtím dokázala poničit všechny, kteří s ní žili pod jednou střechou: slabošského manžela, na první pohled pragmatickou dceru Radanu, zranitelnou a křehkou Jindřišku i povrchního syna Leoše. Nyní je lékaři označena za vyléčenou a může se vrátit do běžného života. V jejích blízkých tahle zpráva vyvolá spíše úzkost a strach z návratu zlých časů. Jsou jejich obavy zbytečné, nebo jejich noční můra ještě neskončila?
Psychologický román Roztříštění přináší temný a depresivní příběh o destruktivní síle narušené psychiky.
Selected Papers of Coomaraswamy, Volume 1
A collection of important essays by a pioneering interpreter of Indian art, philosophy, and mythology“Brilliant.”—Joseph Campbell, author of The Hero with a Thousand Faces“Varied, imaginative, incredibly learned. . . . Fascinating.”—John Kenneth Galbraith, New York Times Book ReviewAnanda K. Coomaraswamy (1877–1947) was a pioneer in the study of Indian art, philosophy, and mythology—and in the cultural meeting of East and West. A scholar in the tradition of the great Indian grammarians and philosophers, an art historian convinced that the ultimate value of art transcends history, and a social thinker influenced by William Morris, Coomaraswamy was a unique figure whose works provide virtually a complete education in themselves. Finding a universal tradition in past cultures ranging from the Hellenic and Christian to the Indian, Islamic, and Chinese, he presented his ideas in numerous essays. This volume includes a selection of his essays on art and symbolism that were written in the 1930s and 1940s, when he was at the height of his powers.

Meanwhile, Iba Hachiro, Kai’s kinsman, crosses blades with former Shinsengumi captain Fujita Goro to protect Ikumatsu. For a third time, the immortal siblings clash over their ideals. To what future will the ensorcelled Sessho-seki lead the valiant?
Sabeena
Loneliness is Vikram's constant companion, born out of his rootlessness. Ever since he learned of his father's forced displacement, he has longed for a home on familial soil, a place where the fragrance of his ancestors lingers in the grains of sand. No matter where life takes him, no triumph can cure the wounds left by the tragedy that partitioned his history from him. On the other side of the Wall, Sabeena is a brilliant woman whose fate delivers her into the caste most discriminated against in Indian society. Beautiful and unyielding, she carries within her a fire of calm resistance and the grace of sacrifice.
Tales of Modern India
The world envisioned by Rabindranath Tagore is not just one characterised by sublime lyrical prose, but one that exists in a flux between tradition and modernity-a world rife with possibility, where one encounters life's greatest complexities, profound truths, and everlasting beauty. Tender and intimate, Tagore's profound grace and humanity weave together stories that enchant readers with their poetic grandeur and poised storytelling. A flagbearer of Indian literary modernism, Tagore's tales not only stand strong, having stood the test of time, but also as champions of the human condition. Tagore's writing gives voice to the innermost facets of the human soul, love, loss, longing and the struggle for identity. This collection brings together eight of the most haunting, empathetic, and emotionally rich stories told by one of the world's most acclaimed storyteller. Tagore's timeless charm awaits you within these pages.

Dýchej tak, jak chceš žít
Náš dech není jen automatická fyziologická funkce. Je to most mezi tělem, myslí a vědomím. V každém nadechnutí se skrývá schopnost zklidnit mysl, proměnit emoce, obnovit energii a navrátit se k sobě. Kniha Dýchej tak, jak chceš žít ukazuje, že se k žádoucímu psychickému rozpoložení můžeme prodýchat. Učitel práce s dechem Matteo Pistono v ní předává sadu technik, které nám s tím pomohou. Navíc vysvětluje, jak a proč tyto nástroje fungují. Vychází přitom z jógové a buddhistické tradice, jejichž studiu se věnuje již více než třicet let. Čtenáře své knihy tak vede k pochopení kouzla skrytého v dechu a dává jim možnost s ním samostatně pracovat.
Dozvíte se:
• jak dechem ovlivnit svou náladu, množství energie i výkonnost,
• jak si úpravou dýchání navodit snadnější usínání a kvalitnější spánek,
• jak nám dech může pomoci lépe se spojit se sebou samými, s přítomností i s tím, co nás přesahuje,
• jak se naučit dýchat nosem (a proč to dělat),
• jak pracovat s dechovými zádržemi tak, abychom je povýšili na superschopnost,
• jak zlepšit svůj život pomocí přijetí faktu, že jednou vydechneme naposled.

Coomaraswamy
A biography of Ananda K.

Coomaraswamy (1877–1947) was a pioneer in Indian art history and in the cultural meeting of East and West in the twentieth century. A scholar in the tradition of the great Indian grammarians and philosophers, an art historian convinced that the ultimate value of art transcends history, and a social thinker influenced by William Morris, Coomaraswamy was a unique figure.

The Sun and the Starmaker
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Nature of Witches comes a whimsical and sweeping romantic fantasy.
There once was a village so far north that most considered it the top of the world... and in that village, the Sun fell in love with her Starmaker.
Nestled deep in the snowy mountains of the Lost Range, the village of Reverie is a small miracle. Beyond the reach of the Sun, Reverie is dependent upon the magic of the mysterious Starmaker: every morning, he trudges across a vast glacier and pulls in sunlight over the peaks, providing the village with the light it needs to survive.
Aurora Finch grew up on tales of the Starmaker’s magic, never imagining she’d one day meet him. But on the morning of her wedding, a fateful encounter in the frostbitten woods changes everything. The Starmaker senses a powerful magic within her and demands she come study under his guidance. With her newfound abilities tied to the survival of the village, Aurora is swept away to his ice-covered castle and far from everything she’s ever known.
The Starmaker is as cold and distant as the mountain itself, leaving Aurora to explore his enchanted castle alone. Yet the more she discovers about the sorcerer, the stronger their attraction grows, pulling her closer to the secrets he refuses to share. But a deadly frost approaches and Aurora must uncover what the Starmaker is hiding before she is left in an endless winter that even the Sun cannot touch.
