Zanedlouho však Cal padne do léčky zlověstné inkvizitorce. Mladý Jedi jen těsně unikne, avšak zjistí při tom hrůznou pravdu o Cereině minulosti, která mezi něj a jeho novou mentorku vrazí klín. Ve stínech Dathomiru poté Cal čelí znepokojivým výjevům ze své vlastní minulosti, a zatímco se důvěra mezi spojenci hroutí, pronásledování Impéria je čím dál urputnější.

Sázka o srdce - Vílí zálety a hříšné korzety 1
S vílami by se lidé neměli sázet – a jejich víno by neměli pít. Spisovatelka Edwina Danforthová poruší oboje. V opilosti uzavře magickou sázku s mužem, na jehož existenci by nejradši zapomněla. Pravidla? Během měsíčního knižního turné svést víc milenců než ten druhý. Edwina sice píše žhavé romance, mimo stránky knih je ale spíš nesmělá. Její protivník William Haywood je okouzlující, sebevědomý… a nebezpečně přitažlivý. Začíná hra plná vášně a rivality. Co když se ale nenávist změní v touhu?

Art of Opposition
''What a triumph ... One of Britain''s most gifted and inspiring writers'' – Sarah Hall''Every artist needs to read this book, there''s something for the soul on every single page'' Derek OwusuBoth as a novelist and as a screenwriter, Courttia Newland has found himself, through circumstance or choice, in a place of opposition to the commercial mainstream. Now, he reflects on what it means to be an artist operating in the margins and shares his experiences and observations for those facing similar hurdles and choices.Newland covers key aspects of creating beyond the mainstream, including centring your own voice; which voices are allowed full freedom of artistic expression and which are not; the importance of reading outside of the white Western canon; and how success shapes the work of historically excluded creatives. Alongside his own observations and experiences, he explores the work of – and in some instances interviews – other oppositional artists, including Percival Everett, Lou Mensah, Iain Banks, Jean Binta Breeze and others. The result is a startling provocation, and a galvanising vindication of refusing to conform.
