Jude
In a world where monsters lurk in every shadow, the deadliest threat might be falling in love. I thought I was just tracking my missing friends through familiar territory. Instead, I found a portal that shouldn't exist. Now I'm trapped in a realm where blue wolves prowl the shadows and an Egyptian goddess holds the answers I seek. But with each step deeper into this mystical world, I realize there's something more sinister at play than mere disappearances. As a were-tiger, I'm used to being the most dangerous creature in any room. Here? I'm barely holding my own. The truth about my friends lies somewhere in this treacherous paradise, but uncovering it might cost me everything—including my heart. Step into a steamy, pulse-pounding paranormal romance where danger, desire, and destiny collide. _____________________________________________________________Praise for the Shifter Days, Vampire Nights & Demons in Between series:? ?A romance with claws. ? I love the twists. ? I read a lot, and I haven't come across a story quite like this one. ? Quick and enjoyable book. ? I truly enjoyed reading this.

Muž s prstenem
Říká se, že nadpoloviční většinu vražd žen spáchá jejich partner. V případě nezvykle brutální vraždy sestřičky z nemocnice v Kalnes ale všechno nasvědčuje tomu, že partner je v tom tentokrát nevinně a v okolí řádí sériový vrah. Na světlo postupem času vyplývají další skutečnosti, které ukazují na dávný, dosud nevyřešený případ mladé studentky ve vzdálené Voldě – je mezi nimi ale skutečná spojitost, nebo se jedná jen o slepou uličku?
Bývalý policista Anton Brekke má navíc úplně jiné starosti – snaží se udržet si práci v nemocnici a nepropadnout své staré hráčské vášni. Když ho jeho bývalý parťák přijde požádat o radu, nemá žádnou motivaci se do případu zapojovat. To se ovšem změní, když zemře jedna z jeho pacientek. Že by i její smrt souvisela s vraždami, které vyšetřuje Magnus Torp?
Při rozkrývání starých tajemství se ale může snadno stát, že bývalí kolegové narazí na protivníka, na kterého jejich síly stačit nebudou.

Cool. ? Wonderful Read! Not just for kids, adults will enjoy it just as much!? … a great sense of adventure, the story line never lagged, and his characters are well defined. ? It's kind of like a steam-punk version of magic…? … original with diverse characters and enough action and mystery to entertain teens to adults. ? It is honestly one of the few books that I have enjoyed as much as Harry Potter.

Alexander - God, King, Man
A stunningly written new biography of Alexander the Great, based on a series of important new discoveries and the author's own translations of source material from twelve ancient languages.
In 336 BCE, at the age of twenty, Alexander, a wide-eyed boy from the hills of Macedon, inherited a tumbledown kingdom, a pile of debts and an army which answered to nobody. Desperate to hold on to power, he led the army east, into the heart of the vast Persian Empire, and inadvertently began the greatest military campaign in history. The young man became a king, the king became a hero, the hero became a living god, and the god died aged thirty-two, broken-hearted in Babylon.
For centuries, historians have told his story, yet Alexander has remained a mystery. But now, the ruins of his cities have emerged from the bottom of the sea and the dust of Central Asian hillsides. The diaries of Babylonian astronomers who knew him have been deciphered. The tombs of his ancestors have been unearthed. For the first time, instead of the legend, we can meet Alexander the man.
Based on more than a decade of cutting-edge research, Alexander allows readers to feel the desert wind and experience the full horror of battle. Richardson's research has taken him from the catacombs of Egypt to the passes of Afghanistan. Alexander is a cinematic work of non-fiction: a revelatory retelling of one of the most famous and elusive stories in history.
