Nebeská doručovací služba
Co člověk zanechá svým blízkým? A lze zařídit, aby tu nejdůležitější věc v pozůstalosti rodina či přátelé nalezli a pochopili důležitost jejího osobního významu? Vlastně poměrně snadno… Čtyři příběhy v této knize spojuje geniální myšlenka doručovací služby, o níž si může nejeden čtenář myslet, že skutečně existuje. Příjemci zvláštních zásilek ze záhrobí představují pestrou paletu postav.
První příběh nás přivede do zanedbané domácnosti staré paní, která těžce snáší osamělost po úmrtí svých dvou životních kamarádek. Dlouhé roky tento dům obývaly společně. Druhý příběh mladé dívky z venkova, toužící po velkoměstě, přináší vhled do generačního konfliktu středoškolačky s babičkou. Ve třetí epizodě se čtyřicátník dovídá o smrti své první lásky z dětství, ve čtvrté přichází zásilka s tajemným vzkazem od učitele ze střední. Epilog je pak věnován osobě, která zásilky ve všech kapitolách doručuje.
Smrt blízkého člověka se v životě dotýká nás všech. Možná na některém místě této knihy poznáte sami sebe

The Fallen and the Kiss of Dusk - A bukottak és az alkonyat csókja
A szerelmükért küzdenek. De vajon meddig mennek el érte?
Mische meghozta a végső áldozatot, hogy megmenthesse azokat, akiket szeret - és örök éjszakába taszította a világot. Asar pedig most, hogy az istenek fogságába esett és a bosszú megszállottja lett, kétségbeesetten keresi kedvesét. Amikor egy istennő felajánlja nekik a végső utat a megváltáshoz, és vissza egymáshoz, Asar és Mische rendkívüli küldetésre indulnak. Meg kell szerezniük a Halál istenének hatalmát, hogy Asar végrehajtsa a lehetetlent: valódi isteni létbe emelkedjen.
Útjuk halandó és halhatatlan birodalmakon keresztül vezet, ahol régi barátaikkal és könyörtelen ellenségeikkel egyaránt találkoznak. De miközben az alvilág az összeomlás szélén áll, és az istenek háborúra készülnek, Asarnak és Mische-nek el kell döntenie, mit hajlandók feláldozni a hatalomért, hogy szembeszálljanak a halállal.
Azonban a bosszúálló istenek és ősi árulások játékában vannak olyan adósságok, amelyeket talán még a szerelem sem képes megfizetni.

Nothing to My Name
‘Lyrical, haunting and profoundly moving, Nothing to My Name is a story of survival, identity and the fragile hope that passes from mother to daughter’ Jean Kwok ‘Nothing to My Name lives honestly in its history – foolhardy and loving and yet uncharted. A formidable and astonishing new voice’ T. Kira Madden‘A gripping story of family bonds, redemption and triumph. A masterful debut!’ Marcela Fuentes1948, Zhoushan, China.

Years later, Mimosa grows up in the shadow of her parents’ struggles, while the looming tension of the Cultural Revolution threatens to pull her family apart.

The Knight Watch
A thousand years ago, the Knights of the Round Table made an oath to protect the realm forevermore. It's safe to say they didn't think it all the way through. Now Britain is embroiled in the Second World War, and the knights are still fighting the enemies of the realm. They're also fighting each other - Kay and Lancelot haven't spoken since Agincourt, and everyone wishes Agravain would stop speaking entirely.

In a time when women have more freedom than ever before, she's determined to strike out on her own. But when she discovers old enemies working alongside the Nazis, she realises she can't fight all of them by herself. It might be time to get the old band back together . . . From the Sunday Times bestselling Thomas D. Lee comes this sharp and witty caper, asking what happens when knights in armour return to fix the problems of a more modern world . . .
By the River's Edge
The decades-long manhunt for a serial killer takes a stunning turn in a haunting and harrowing true crime shocker by Gregg Olsen, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of If You Tell. In 1990 in Washington state, the bodies of Yolanda Sapp, Nickie Lowe, and Kathy Brisbois were found on the banks of the Spokane River. They were part of a close-knit alliance of sex workers whose oath to protect each other was, in the end, hopeless. For twenty-two years their brutal murders went unsolved. In 2012, a DNA cold hit pointed to Douglas Perry. A repeat assault offender, Douglas was currently incarcerated in Carswell, Texas. But there was a twist: The facility was for female prisoners. The man authorities hunted for decades was now Donna Perry. Her gender reassignment not only helped to mask the evil deeds of the past, it ended a life of childhood traumas and a pent-up rage unleashed on nearly thirty victims, according to Donna herself. Through total reinvention, she believed she’d finally slayed the monster within. By the River’s Edge is the astonishing true story of an elusive serial killer, an escape plan like no other, and the women who lived and died on the fringes of the Lilac City for whom justice was at long last served.
Dante - Éldekorált kiadás
Éldekorált kiadás
Anya mindig azt mondta, ne játsszak a tűzzel. Azonban, ha Dante Moretti maga a láng, én el akarok égni vele.
Gyűlölöm Dante Morettit!
Kegyetlen és könyörtelen. Bármi áron eléri céljait, még ha az emberéletekbe kerül is. Ha valaki vét ellene, nincs bocsánat. Olyan gonosz, hogy az ördög elbújhat mellette. De én nem ezért gyűlölöm.
Hanem azért, mert elvette tőlem az egyetlen dolgot, ami ebben a keserves világban még megmaradt nekem - a szabadságomat. Magához láncolt egy olyan adósság miatt, ami nem is az enyém.
Szerencsétlenségemre a testvérem az, aki tartozik neki.
Most azonban Dante aranykalitkájának foglya vagyok, és az egyetlen választásom: a szökés. Megpróbálom. Komolyan megpróbálom. De Dante Moretti mindenütt ott van.
Fojtogató a jelenléte. Mindent felemészt. Megrészegít.
Ő maga az ellentmondás. A szíve olyan hideg, mint a jég, de a szenvedélye forró, akár a tűz.
Miért képes úgy belelátni a lelkembe, ahogy eddig soha senki más? Miért kezd hevesen dobogni a szívem attól, ha csak egymáshoz érünk?
Dni
Etela Farkašová prináša texty, ktoré sú vo viacerých ohľadoch iné ako prevládajúci trend: pozornosť obracajú na bytosti stojace v úzadí, nevíťazné, nevyhrávajúce v životných bojoch, nezapadajúce do ideálu dnešných sebaistých a úspešných, dokonca na bytosti niečím vychýlené, „mimo normy“.
Novela DNI ponúka umelecky presvedčivo spracovaný príbeh matky a jej mentálne postihnutého syna, ide o nesmierne silný vzťah zachytený na pozadí ich každodenného života, do ktorého vstupuje množstvo problémov, starostí, ale aj nehy, lásky, spolupatričnosti… Dôležitou súčasťou prózy sú reflexie zmyslu či hodnoty ľudského života v kontexte súčasnosti zdôrazňujúcej najmä ekonomicky efektívne vonkajšie výkony. DNI popri vybrúsenom štýle charakterizuje myšlienková hĺbka i jemná lyrickosť.
„Keď sme sa približovali k domu, ozval sa, ma-ma, aj ja som na-še sl-nieč-ko?
Zaskočilo ma to, a keď som, s hrčou, ktorá mi pri jeho otázke naskočila v krku, hneď nereagovala, zopakoval to ešte raz, aj Fe-dor…?
Napokon som dostala zo seba strohé, pravdaže si, pravdaže aj ty… že sa pýtaš…
Po chvíli sa nanovo ohlásil, ma-ma, ale tete si to ne-po- -ve-da-la, pre-čo si ne-po-ve-da-la, že aj Fe-dor…
Prehltla som naprázdno, a on pokračoval, pre-čo si, ma-ma…“
Jazyk draků 2: Válka saní
Vzpoura se odehrává ve stínech…
Vivien Vlaštopírková rozluštila tajný jazyk draků — a tím rozpoutala občanskou válku, v níž na obou stranách bojují draci i lidé. Poté co po nešťastných událostech unikla z Bletchley Parku, se Vivien neochotně stala tváří povstání — a okamžitě byla označena za nejhledanějšího zločince v Britannii. Ale k čemu je rebelka, která se musí skrývat a nemůže nijak pomoct svým přátelům?
Nejistá svým posláním a rozpolcená pochybnostmi o životě, o němž si myslela, že je jí souzený, se Vivien vydává na odlehlé skotské ostrovy. Chce najít záhadný, dávno zapomenutý druh saně, aby povstalcům pomohl ukončit válku jednou provždy.
Válka saní je druhým dílem plánované trilogie.

Český literární naturalismus
Naturalismus vzbudil na konci devatenáctého a počátkem následujícího století vlnu bouřlivých diskusí. Napříč evropskou kulturou byl radikálně odmítán, a zároveň neodolatelně přitahoval čtenáře, nakladatele i podstatnou část spisovatelů. Jaká byla jeho pozice a podoba v české literatuře? Omezoval se jen na několik málo jmen, která si dnes s naturalismem spojujeme, nebo měl širší dosah a vnitřně rozmanitější povahu? Byl pouze odlitkem Zolovy teorie a románů, nebo se k tomuto ideálnímu prototypu vztahoval složitěji, ba mnohotvárně? Přinášel čtenáři jen senzační motivy krajní ošklivosti a hnusu, nebo byl podnětným moderním experimentem? Co český naturalismus vypovídá o pozici naší literatury v evropském kontextu, třeba v porovnání s Francií, Německem, Skandinávií, ale třeba i se Slovenskem? Jaký podnět i metodologický problém naturalismus představuje pro literární historii?
Publikace je výsledkem dlouholeté spolupráce literárních historiků a specialistů na divadlo i drama z univerzit i výzkumných institucí v Českých Budějovicích, Praze, Brně, Olomouci a Liberci. Navazuje na řadu knih, vydaných v Hostu a věnovaných českému klasicismu, romantismu a parnasismu.
GAEA-TIMA the Gigantis 6
A gigantic monster returns to the town it ravaged years earlier in this poignant kaiju manga from the creator of the hit series Colorless. In the spirit of the classic Godzilla and Godzilla Minus One, GAEA-TIMA combines thunderous action and character drama with the social conscience and thematic complexity of the genre's post-war roots. A monster that people call GAEA-TIMA devastates a small, seaside town. Ten years later, the resilient community has emerged as a tourist destination, and Miyako, who became a local celebrity by surviving the attack, is making a living selling mini-replicas of the beast. But when GAEA-TIMA returns, Miyako and her neighbors will discover that their enduring connection to the creature goes deeper than tourism and trauma. Just what is the true agenda behind the attack of the "gigantis?" Are there more like GAEA-TIMA waiting for their momen? nd is humanity capable of responding to violence with anything other than more violence?

The Devil's Banquet
The second novel in the Piccadilly Noir series, this dark historical thriller sees Cockney private eye George Harley return to the streets of London's Soho, populated by gangsters, wide-boys and lowlifes, to investigate a missing cabaret dancer. For fans of Dominic Nolan and Laura Shepherd Robinson. Four years after bringing the infamous child-killer known as the 'Nursery Butcher' to justice - and still haunted by the brutal vengeance exacted by the psychopath's ruthless allies - Cockney private eye George Harley is finally back in business, operating a new detective agency in the heart of London's Soho. Harley and his new assistant Bunty are presented with their first case when a distressed father engages them to investigate the disappearance of his daughter, who has run away from home to join a cabaret troupe led by the notorious 'Queen of Depravity' Ilse Blau, now in London after being driven out by the Nazis from Weimar-era Berlin. But in Harley's liminal world, things are never straightforward, and the detective soon finds himself embroiled in another pitch-dark scenario, with London's decadent, thrill-seeking gentry on one side and West End mobsters and wide-boys in search of easy cash on the other. When he discovers that a six-year-old has been kidnapped from an orphanage, Harley is convinced his old nemesis has somehow broken out of the lunatic asylum and is back on the streets of London, up to his old tricks. Set in 1933 and following on from the events of Midnight Streets, this second instalment in the Piccadilly Noir series sees George Harley return to the frowzy alleyways and sleazy nightclubs of the UK capital in search of answers - no matter how uncomfortable they might turn out to be. But when he becomes ensnared in the mind games of a wily femme fatale, and finds himself up against ruthless Glaswegian gangsters, well-connected occultists, and undercover SS agents, those answers become increasingly hard to find.
