Tower of Dawn
A glorious empire. A desperate quest. An ancient secret.
The search for allies extends to a new land in the sixth book of the #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas.
Chaol Westfall and Nesryn Faliq have arrived in the shining city of Antica to forge an alliance with the Khagan of the Southern Continent, whose vast armies are Erilea's last hope. But they have also come to Antica for another purpose: to seek healing at the famed Torre Cesme for the wounds Chaol received in Rifthold.
After enduring unspeakable horrors as a child at the hands of Adarlanian soldiers, Yrene Towers has no desire to help the young lord from Adarlan, let alone heal him. Yet she has sworn an oath to assist those in need, and she will honour it. But Lord Westfall carries his own dark past, and Yrene soon realises that those shadows could engulf them both.
Chaol, Nesryn, and Yrene will have to draw on every scrap of their resilience to overcome the danger that surrounds them. But while they become entangled in the political webs of the khaganate, long-awaited answers slumber deep in the mountains, where warriors soar on legendary ruks. Answers that might offer their world a chance at survival ... or doom them all.
The final battle looms in this sixth book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series.
She Gets the Girl
Alex and Molly are two girls who don't belong on the same planet, let alone the same college campus...
Alex Blackwood is a little bit headstrong, with a dash of chaos and a whole lot of flirt. She knows how to get the girl. Keeping her on the other hand... not so much.
Molly Parker has everything in her life totally in control, except for her complete awkwardness with just about anyone besides her mum. She knows she's in love with the impossibly cool Cora Myers. She just... hasn't actually talked to her yet.
When the girls' paths cross unexpectedly, and Alex discovers Molly's hidden crush, they realise they might have a common interest after all. Because maybe if Alex can help Molly to get her dream girl, she can prove to her ex that she's serious about love.
As the two embark on their five-step plans to get their girls to fall for them, though, they both begin to wonder if maybe they're the ones falling... for each other.
The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea
Don't chase fate. Let fate chase you.
For generations, deadly storms have ravaged Mina's homeland. Her people believe the Sea God, once their protector, now curse them with death and despair. To appease him, each year a maiden is thrown into the sea, in the hopes that one day the 'true bride' will be chosen and end the suffering.
Many believe Shim Cheong - Mina's brother's beloved - to be the legendary true bride. But on the night Cheong is sacrificed, Mina's brother follows her, even knowing that to interfere is a death sentence. To save her brother, Mina throws herself into the water in Cheong's stead.
Swept away to the Spirit Realm, a magical city of lesser gods and mythical beasts, Mina finds the Sea God, trapped in an enchanted sleep. With the help of a mysterious young man and a motley crew of demons, gods and spirits, Mina sets out to wake him and bring an end to the storms once and for all.
But she doesn't have much time: a human cannot live long in the land of the spirits. And there are those who would do anything to keep the Sea God from waking...

Publikácia je nominovaná na výročnú cenu časopisu Pamiatky a múzeá 2020. Vydaniu
katalógu predchádzala rovnomenná výstava, nad ktorou prevzalo záštitu Britské veľvyslanectvo na
Slovensku. Aj tento edičný projekt bol podporený z verejných zdrojov Fondom na podporu umenia.
Slovenský text vrátane registrov a konkordancie sprevádza anglický preklad. Zahŕňa všetky
grafické diela vo fonde galérie, ktoré s Britskými ostrovmi spája autor predlohy, rytec alebo
vydavateľ. Sú zoradené v súvislostiach, ktoré naznačila štruktúra zbierky, teda sčasti chronologicky,
sčasti tematicky, resp. vzhľadom na žáner. Najstaršie listy pochádzajú z knižného vydania
Vergíliových veršov v anglickom preklade Johna Drydena z roku 1697. Ďalším relatívne uceleným
súborom grafických listov je sedem vedút s najvýznamnejšími architektonickými dielami v Dubline
od dielo popredného írskeho grafika a rytca Jamesa Maltona, ktoré vytvoril v 90. rokoch 18.
storočia. V kolekcii však prevládajú portréty. Ilustrujú dejiny ostrovnej monarchie v dobe, keď
vznikli. To bol účel, pre ktorý ich v 19. storočí vydával Hermann Julis Meyer ako súčasť
populárnych konverzačných príručiek. Pozornosť však treba obrátiť najmä na veľký grafický list,
reprodukujúci podobizeň vojvodkyne z Devonshiru od Joshua Reynoldsa. Katalóg voľne nadväzuje
na katalóg talianskej grafiky z roku 2019. Na záver vysvetlenie: zelená farba obálky je farbou
zberateľskej pečiatky Ernesta Zmetáka.
