Kiki, čarodejnícka doručovateľka
Príbeh čarodejnice Kiki, ktorú preslávil animovaný film štúdia Ghibli, vychádza po štyridsiatich rokoch v slovenskom preklade.
Kiki má trinásť rokov a podľa čarodejníckej tradície musí vyraziť do sveta na skusy. Nie je síce dobrá v elixíroch a ani v kúzlach, ale vie výborne lietať na metle, a tak sa rozhodne, že si založí expresnú doručovaciu službu. Na svojej ceste k samostatnosti to ale nemá jednoduché – ľudia v meste Koriko, kde sa usadí aj s hovoriacim kocúrom Džidžim, ešte nikdy skutočnú čarodejnicu nevideli. Získať si ich srdce a nájsť si miesto vo veľkom svete bude aj pre odvážnu a odhodlanú Kiki veľká výzva.

Klíč k domovu
Slaný vítr mi vhání slzy do očí, když hledím na smaragdové vody Irského moře. Všechno, o co jsem přišla, i dítě, které ztratila moje prababička Nellie, je tady najednou tak opravdové – v zemi, kterou má rodina opustila. Jak mám jít dál? Odhalím někdy pravdu o malé dívce, která před tolika lety zmizela?
Když Erin, rodačka z Bostonu, přijíždí do větrem bičované zátoky Roone Bay, má zlomené srdce, je unavená a osamělá. Její manželství skončilo a teď se snaží vybudovat nový život na drsném pobřeží Irska. A také rozluštit příběh záhadného vzkazu ve staré rodinné bibli, který ji pronásleduje od dětství. Finn, místní historik a člen pobřežní stráže, však její prosby o pomoc odmítá.
Erin se tedy zabydlí v městečku s vybílenými chalupami a rybáři s tvářemi ošlehanými větrem a vydává se pátrat po vlastní ose. Kdo byla její příbuzná Nellie a proč odešla z Irska do Ameriky? Co se stalo s její ztracenou dcerkou Annie a setkala se s ní Nellie ještě někdy?
Erin už začíná ztrácet naději, že se někdy dopátrá pravdy, když ji jedné deštivé noci zachrání Finn, který nakonec souhlasí, že jí pomůže. A večer co večer, při světle ohně a svíček, tak jako za časů její prababičky, se Finn a Erin sbližují, když si navzájem vyprávějí své životní příběhy.
Ovšem ve chvíli, kdy Erin začíná věřit, že by městečko Roone Bay mohlo být jejím novým domovem, učiní zdrcující objev. Dokáže čelit pravdě, která změní všechno, co si dosud myslela o sobě, své minulosti i irském dědictví své rodiny? Nebo uteče, stejně jako kdysi Nellie, a promarní tak největší šanci na štěstí, jakou kdy měla?

The worst monsters are the human kind . . .
Dundee, 1812. Isabel Baxter awaits the arrival of Mary Godwin, a girl of fierce intelligence and grand passions, sent north to recover from a mysterious ailment.

Living Planet
A new, fully updated narrative edition of David Attenborough's seminal biography of our world, The Living Planet.
Nowhere on our planet is devoid of life. Plants and animals thrive or survive within every extreme of climate and habitat that it offers. Single species, and often whole communities adapt to make the most of ice cap and tundra, forest and plain, desert, ocean and volcano. These adaptations can be truly extraordinary: fish that walk or lay eggs on leaves in mid-air; snakes that fly; flightless birds that graze like deer; and bears that grow hair on the soles of their feet.
In The Living Planet, David Attenborough's searching eye, unfailing curiosity and infectious enthusiasm explain and illuminate the intricate lives of the these colonies, from the lonely heights of the Himalayas to the wild creatures that have established themselves in the most recent of environments, the city. By the end of this book it is difficult to say which is the more astonishing - the ingenuity with which individual species contrive a living, or the complexity of their interdependence on each other and on the habitations provided by our planet.
In this new edition, the author, with the help of zoologist Matthew Cobb, has added all the most up-to-date discoveries of ecology and biology, as well as a full-colour 64-page photography section. He also addresses the urgent issues facing our living planet: climate change, pollution and mass extinction of species.

Tajemné stezky - Za skrytou krásou Ašska
Známý autor literatury faktu a dvojnásobný držitel prestižní literární Polanovy ceny Aleš Česal (* 1976) nás znovu zavede do nejzápadnějších končin naší vlasti. Poprvé se tam s námi vypravil na stránkách knihy Za skrytou krásou Chebska (2020). Zastavili jsme se tehdy krátce i na Ašsku. Po šesti letech se autor na Ašsko znovu vrací, aby zájemcům o historii, přírodu a koneckonců i záhady, tajemné příběhy a zajímavosti představil tento region z méně známé perspektivy.
V kapitolách věnovaným nejstarším dějinám Ašska se seznámíme s tajuplnými runami nebo kruhovými hradišti – takzvanými ringvaly. Vydáme se za šlechtickými rody, které formovaly život zdejších obyvatel i krajinu, a navštívíme jejich sídla, z nichž některá se po letech devastace opět pomalu probouzejí k životu. Neujde nám ani zajímavá historie ašských svatostánků a mnoha kostelů, kapliček a dalších drobných sakrálních památek v okolí. Zjistíme, že Ašsko je rovněž místem, kde se odehrávaly pochmurné události našich novodobých dějin. Dostane se také na svobodné zednáře, tajemné pověsti, lidovou magii a pověry. Na skok se podíváme i k německým sousedům, města, městečka a vesnice na druhé straně hranice určitě stojí za vidění. Knihu doprovází velké množství starých fotografií a pohlednic i současných snímků. Tak tedy vítejte na Ašsku, račte vstoupit.
Tajná válka (Legendy Marvel)
Na začátku, jak už to u příběhů bývá, byla exploze. Byt Luka Cage vylétl do povětří. A i když má „hrdina k pronajmutí“ kůži měkkou jako pancíř tanku, tenhle výbuch ho poslal do nemocnice a do kómatu. Ukazuje se, že útok byl pomstou za akci, kterou kdysi hrdinové (Spider-Man, Captain America, Wolverine, Daredevil a Luke Cage), provedli. Akci tak tajnou, že o ní nevědí ani oni sami. Kterou jim někdo vymazal z paměti. A právě teď si začínají vzpomínat. Tajná válka je především promyšlený špionážní thriller s perfektními dialogy Briana Michaela Bendise (Alias, Daredevil, Tajná invaze) a úžasnou kresbou skvělého Gabriela Dell´Otta (Amazing Spider-Man: Rodinný podnik). Tenhle komiks přináší nejen epické dobrodružství a spoustu bonusů, ale i polemiku na téma, jestli je správné udělat občas nějaké svinstvo, když to může zachránit životy... a časem za to bude nutné zaplatit. Obsahuje sešity Tajná válka č. 1–5 a řadu bonusů zachycujících proces tvorby tohoto komiksu.

Thorn Season
ONLY THE SHARPEST WILL SURVIVE
"Court is filled with charming vipers," I said, chin lifted.
"But charming or not, we are vipers all the same."
In the Kingdom of Daradon, a persecuted few are Wielders - able to exert a physical power that extends beyond their visible body: a shimmering tendril that can pick a lock, a gentle coil that reaches out to give a loving caress, or an inexorable rope that will kill a man before he knows it is around his neck. Feared and mistrusted for this ability, Wielders have always been Hunted.
Alissa Paine - heiress of a noble lineage, daughter of a Hunter family - is also a Wielder. And as she approaches her eighteenth Season, Alissa knows she has escaped execution so far only through painful self-control, and the fragile efforts of her beloved father.
Summoned to the harsh and glittering royal court for the debutante season, Alissa finds herself trapped in a web of hidden intentions - and caught between two equally dangerous men. One is a brutal ruler with the handsome face of a fairytale prince, who would see her destroyed in an instant if the truth were known - and the other a beguiling foreign ambassador with secret agendas of his own.
It's Rose Season at the palace, but Alissa knows that survival will depend on being the most vicious of the thorns…
WIELD YOUR POWER. GUARD YOUR SECRET. SURVIVE THE HUNT.
Sharp, funny, sexy and dangerous, and packed full of irresistible twists, Thorn Season is an unforgettable novel that marks the introduction of a major new YA voice.

Carthage
The empire behind the legend
Carthage was a power that dominated the western Mediterranean for almost six centuries before its fall to Rome. The history of the realm and its Carthaginians was subsumed by their conquerors and, along the way, the story of the real Carthage was lost. An ancient North African kingdom, Carthage was the home of Hannibal and of Dido, of war elephants and enormous power and wealth, of great beauty and total destruction.
In this landmark new history, Eve MacDonald tells the essential story of the lost culture of Carthage and of its forgotten people, using brand new archaeological analysis to uncover the history behind the legend. A journey that takes us the Phoenician Levant of the early Iron Age to the Atlantic and all along the coast of Africa, Carthage puts the city and the story of North Africa once again at the centre of Mediterranean history. Reclaimed from the Romans, this, for the very first time, is the Carthaginian version of the tale.
Great Kingdoms of Africa
An essential overview of great kingdoms in African history and their legacies, written by world-leading experts.
From the ancient Nile Valley to the savannas of medieval West Africa, the highlands of Ethiopia and on to the forests, lakes and grasslands to the south, African civilizations have given rise to some of the world's most impressive kingdoms. Yet Africa's history is often little known beyond the devastation wrought by the slave trade and European colonial rule. In this groundbreaking book, nine leading historians of Africa take a fresh look at these great kingdoms and empires over five thousand years of recorded history.
How was kingship forged in Africa and how did it operate? Was dynastic power maintained by consent or by coercion? Did kings - and queens - display and project that power for all to see, or did they hide it away, as beneath the fringed crowns that concealed the faces of sacred Yoruba rulers? In what ways have African peoples themselves recorded, celebrated and critiqued the deeds of their kings? Great Kingdoms of Africa explores some of the most important questions in the continent's deep past.

Drawing on the ancient wisdom of the Stoics, this is a comforting guide that will help you reclaim the power of your emotional response and let go of the things you can't control.

The Power of Beliefs
MASTER THE BELIEFS THAT DRIVE SUCCESS.
Each of us has a lens through which we see the world, one that has been crafted by every experience we've ever had and is made up of our conscious and unconscious beliefs. But even though this lens has remarkable predictive power on our outcomes in work and life, we are often unaware of how much it shapes our choices-and how much power we have to change it, and our lives, for the better.
In The Power of Beliefs Shawn Achor draws from his groundbreaking work in fifty countries over twenty years to introduce a critical set of tools, the seven Core Power Beliefs:
1. My Behavior Matters
2. I Matter
3. I Am Not Alone
4. This Work is Meaningful
5. I Have Things To Be Grateful for in the Present
6. I Have Something to Give
7. There Is Something Greater Than Me
The extent to which we embrace these beliefs is the strongest indicator of positive outcomes across all aspects of our lives. Using fascinating examples from his own research and the cutting-edge work of others, Achor shows just how powerful our beliefs can be. He shows us how to undertake the often challenging work of changing our beliefs to transform our lens, opening up a world of possibilities previously unseen. And the benefits don't stop there: Once we know that change is possible, the next step is helping to strengthen the beliefs and trajectories of our family, friends, coworkers, and the world around us.
