Lacná kniha True Tale of the Monster Billy (-90%)
For fans of Room by Emma Donoghue, an extraordinary novel about a child who is kept incarcerated - from the bestselling, prizewinning author of Skellig Billy Deane is the child of an illicit relationship between a priest and a young hairdresser. He is born on the very day that terrorists attack his town, and the fact that he survives and flourishes persuades his father that he is a special child with special gifts. Even so, Billy's birth can't be made public, and he spends his chidhood in a single room, dreaming of other worlds, occasionally visited at night by his father. When the visits come to a sudden end, his mother decides it's time for Billy to come out into the world, helped by a couple of friendly townspeople, and soon he finds that his supposed gifts bring him a certain celebrity. But his father hasn't gone for good, and there's a terrible reckoning still to be made. David Almond's first adult novel is a brilliant account of a child long kept hidden from the world who finally finds that he can establish his place in it - only to be confronted with a past that won't go away. 'A lovely book, full of wonderments. Billy's memories have real lyricism and a beguiling narrative voice' Sunday Times 'Not only dramatically and emotionally suspenseful, it is also vividly drawn and wonderfully well-paced, as we might expect from a master storyteller' John Burnside, Guardian David Almond is the author of Skellig and other novels and plays for children. He has won many distuinguished awards including the Hans Christian Andersen Award in 2010, the Carnegie Medal and two Whitbreads.

Poézia pre dvoch Poetry For Two
Básnická kniha Poézia pre dvoch Poetry For Two je napísaná po slovensky a anglicky, v dvoch jazykoch, ktorými poetka Ivana Komanická myslí, v ktorých si uvedomuje svoje bytie a v ktorých tvaruje svet okolo seba. Podoba básní je určená konverzačným tónom reálnych a fiktívnych rozhovorov s partnerom a z virtuálnej podstaty reči sa postupne začínajú formovať skutočné udalosti a skutoční ľudia zachytení v nečakanej a naliehavej situácii. Básne plynú ako políčka filmu a v ich osobitom a ľahkom rytme sa odkrýva a zahaľuje všetko to, čo človek túži povedať alebo hovorením zakryť. Kniha je vnútorne spojená s autorkinou lyrickou prózou Pre teba sa postavím proti sebe (2018) a spolu zobrazujú životný príbeh človeka zasiahnutého prítomnosťou, v ktorej sú zviditeľnené fragmenty individuálnej pamäti a záblesky toho, čo sa môže stať.

The Handmaid's Tale
The Republic of Gilead offers Offred only one function: to breed. If she deviates, she will, like dissenters, be hanged at the wall or sent out to die slowly of radiation sickness. But even a repressive state cannot obliterate desire - neither Offred's nor that of the two men on which her future hangs.
Brilliantly conceived and executed, this powerful evocation of twenty-first century America gives full rein to Margaret Atwood's devastating irony, wit and astute perception.
The Queen of Nothing – A semmi királynője (A levegő népe 3.)
A hatalmat sokkal könnyebb megragadni, mint megtartani.
Jude alaposan megtanulta ezt a leckét, amikor mérhetetlen hatalomért cserébe lemondott a gonosz király, Cardan feletti uralmáról.
Tündérfölde száműzött halandó királynéjaként elveszettnek érzi magát, a semmi királynőjének. Ám megfogadja, hogy mindent visszaszerez, amit elvettek tőle. Az esély kétszínű ikertestvére, a szintén halandó Taryn képében érkezik meg, akinek az élete veszélybe kerül.
Jude kénytelen vállalni a kockázatot, és visszatérni a veszedelmes tündérudvarba, valamint szembenézni a Cardan iránti érzéseivel, hogy megmentse a nővére életét. Csakhogy sok minden megváltozott Elfhonban a távozása óta. Háború közeleg. Jude beférkőzik az ellenséges tábor mélyére, és ő maga is belekeveredik a véres politikai csatározásba.
Amikor egy eddig szunnyadó, ám igen erős átok elszabadul, pánik söpör végig a vidéken, és Jude választani kényszerül a becsvágya és az embersége között…
A levegő népe trilógiájának várva várt, döbbenetes fináléja.
Mission two
Tento román je inspirován příběhem tří příslušníků britské tajné služby v pohnuté době těsně předcházející vzniku druhé světové války. Dobrodružná cesta hrdinů příběhu vede ohnisky tehdejších konfliktů – občanskou válkou ve Španělsku a boji s povstalci v tehdejším britském mandátním území, Palestině. Většina osob a událostí, se kterými se v příběhu setkáte, je historicky doložená. Dozvíte se například o počátku dodnes trvajícího konfliktu na Středním východě, seznámíte se se jmény vedoucích teroristů, předchůdců dnešních vůdců Al Kaidy a dalších zlověstných organizací. Zavítáte i do fašistické Itálie, jejíž tragické spojenectví s hitlerovským Německem ještě v té době nebylo úplně vyřešeno. Možná vás historický rámec příběhu dovede k lepšímu pochopení některých dějů, které dodnes ovlivňují život obyvatel naší planety.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a deeply affecting coming-of-age story that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.

Proti Wadovi sa však postaví nebezpečný a nečakane silný rival, ktorý na dosiahnutie svojho cieľa neváha obetovať milióny ľudí.

A Court of Silver Flames
Sarah J. Maas's sexy, richly imagined A Court of Thorns and Roses series continues with the journey of Feyre's fiery sister, Nesta...
Nesta Archeron has always been prickly - proud, swift to anger and slow to forgive. And since the war - since being made High Fae against her will - she's struggled to forget the horrors she endured and find a place for herself within the strange and deadly Night Court.
The person who ignites her temper more than any other is Cassian, the battle-scarred, winged warrior who is there at Nesta's every turn. But her temper isn't the only thing Cassian ignites. And when they are forced to train in battle together, sparks become flame.
As the threat of war casts its shadow over them once again, Nesta and Cassian must fight monsters from within and without if they are to stand a chance of halting the enemies of their court. But the ultimate risk will be searching for acceptance - and healing - in each other's arms.
