Greek Gods in the East
Kniha pojednává o osudu řeckých mytologických námětů, postav božských i heroických, daleko na Východě, především v oblasti starověké Gandháry a Baktrie. V abecedně řazeném přehledu jsou zde pojednána jednotlivá základní ikonografická schémata, která si umění těchto oblastí vypůjčilo z helénistického Středomoří. Můžeme srovnat, jak se jednotlivá typická vyobrazení řeckých božstev v průběhu staletí měnila a přizpůsobovala vkusu i představám místního obyvatelstva. Vedle toho se řada původně řeckých mytologických postav i s jejich obvyklými atributy stala, jak je zde názorně ukázáno, základem pro zobrazení různých místních – íránských, indických i jiných – božstev.

Neon Gods - Alvilági szerelem
Úgy volt, hogy ő csak a mítoszokban létezik. De attól a pillanattól fogva, hogy átkeltem a sztüx folyón, teljesen megigézett...
Az ultramodern Olümposz elitjének üdvöskéje, Perszephoné Dimitriou azt tervezi, hogy megszökik, és új életet kezd valahol máshol, távol az Olümposzt uraló istenek, a tizenhármak tisztességtelen politikájának világától. Azért döntött így, mert anyja a tudtán kívül Zeusznak ígérte a kezét, aki a csillogó-villogó látszat mögött meghúzódó sötét világ veszélyes, teljhatalmú ura. Mivel nem marad más választása, Perszephoné a tiltott alsó városba menekül, ahol eladja a lelkét Hádésznak, akit korábban csak egy mitikus hősnek gondolt... a férfi pedig bevezeti egy olyan világba, amelynek létezéséről fogalma sem volt. Hádész mindig is az árnyékos oldalon élte az életét, és továbbra sem áll szándékában kilépni a fényre. Ám amikor rátalál Perszephonéra, ráeszmél, hogy ezzel lehetősége nyílik az évek óta tervezett bosszú végrehajtására. ennél több ürügyre nincs is szüksége ahhoz, hogy segítsen a lánynak -- aminek persze megkéri az árát. igen ám, de minden egyes szenvedélyes éjszakával, amelyet együtt töltenek, egyre jobban a szívébe zárja Perszephonét, és úgy dönt, készen áll akár az egész Olümposszal szembeszállni csak azért, hogy ne kelljen elválnia tőle...
Hádész és Perszephoné modern átdolgozása, amely édes, mint a bűn...

Pink Floyd - A Foot In The Door: The Best Of 2LP
KDO: Pink Floyd jsou nepochybně jednou z nejzásadnějších skupin hudební historie. Jejich experimentální rocková muzika ovlivnila miliony posluchačů a inspirovala několik generací hudebníků. Vždy je zdobil progresivní přístup při hledání nových možností, kladli důraz na koncepční propojení zvuku s obrazem. Měli jedinečné nápady a pořádali originální výpravné koncerty. Od roku 1964, kdy vznikli, natočili čtrnáct studiových alb. Těžko hledat slavnější art-rockovou skupinu!
CO: První vydání na vinylu! Kompilační album A Foot In The Door vyšlo původně v roce 2011 na CD a obsahuje nejznámější skladby skupiny z období 1967 - 1994 včetně Wish You Were Here, Comfortably Numb, Shine On You Crazy Diamond, See Emily Play nebo High Hopes. Pro účely vydání na vinylu byly nahrávky znovu zremasterovány, na zvuk dohlíželi James Guthrie, Joel Plante a také Bernie Grundman. Design alba vznikal pod dohledem kreativní ředitelky Aubrey Powell z Hipgnosis a Petera Curzona. Obal obsahuje alternativní verze fotografií, jež byly použity na CD. Oba vinyly jsou pochopitelně 180g.
