Životom na zelenú
Nezvyčajné memoáre oscarového herca Matthewa McConaugheyho obsahujú pol storočia úvah a životných lekcií, sú nasiaknuté nenúteným šarmom i emóciami a oslavujú myšlienku, že to, čo nás napĺňa, je cesta a nie cieľová destinácia. V tejto knihe sa snúbia zábavný životopis, príjemný dobrodružný román, veselé príhody zo života, filozofická príručka propagujúca lásku a rodinu s neprikrášleným opisom duchovného a osobného obrodenia.
Ako hovorí sám autor, je to kniha o tom, ako vo svete, ktorý nám zvyčajne hovorí nie, získať viac "áno" a o tom, ako rozoznať, kedy by mohlo byť "nie" vlastne preoblečeným "áno".
Je to kniha o chytaní zelených na semafore života s vedomím, že všetky oranžové a červené sa nakoniec taktiež zmenia na zelenú.
Je to ľúbostný list životu.

Lacná kniha Prepodobný Justín Popovič (-90%)
Kniha o živote a teologickom diela veľkého srbského teológa, Justína Čelijského (Popoviča), doktora teológie a univerzitného profesora. Bol to človek, ktorý v mladosti študoval všetko, čo sa len dalo a spoznával ľudí a mentalitu rôznych kultúr, aby bol neskôr prospešný svojej Cirkvi a pomohol teologicky a duchovne vzdelávať ďalšiu generáciu teológov, duchovných, episkopov, ale aj mníchov či veriacich v Srbsku. Bol vychovávaný vo svätej zbožnosti, a tak svoje všestranné vzdelanie spájal s modlitbou, pôstom a Bohočlovek Christos bol jeho životnou pomocou a inšpiráciou. Všetko v živote robil na oslavu svojho nebeského Stvoriteľa a vždy robil všetko tak, aby to bolo v zhode so Svätým Písmom.
Jeho zbožnosť bola známa všetkým, ktorí ho poznali, avšak nie každý ju dokázal pochopiť. Mnohí ho dokonca považovali za fanatika a preto bol často vyhadzovaný zo škôl, kde učil a posielaný na misie do zahraničia, aby nebol v Srbsku. V rozkvete svojho teologického a vychovávateľského života (dlhé roky pôsobil ako vychovávateľ na bohosloveckých seminároch) odchádza univerzitný profesor, doktor teológie, filozof a zbožný askéta ako 54-ročný do ženského monastiera Čelije za duchovníka, kvôli svojim zbožným a bohabojným názorom. Tu, v zabudnutí nekonečných hôr, pokračuje vo svätom živote i teologickej práci, ktorá začala ešte viac prekvitať. Strávil tu zvyšných tridsaťjeden rokov života. Po jeho smrti mu však ani jeho bývalí nepriatelia nepovedia inak ako - prepodobný otec Justín.

Light in the Darkness
As featured in THE EDGE OF ALL WE KNOW - the new Netflix documentary about Black Holes
For readers of Stephen Hawking, a fascinating account of the universe from the perspective of world-leading astrophysicist Heino Falcke, who took the first ever picture of a black hole.
10th April 2019: a global sensation. Heino Falcke, a man "working at the boundaries of his discipline and therefore at the limits of the universe" had used a network of telescopes spanning the entire planet to take the first picture of a black hole.
Light in the Darkness examines how mankind has always looked to the skies, mapping the journey from millennia ago when we turned our gaze to the heavens, to modern astrophysics. Heino Falcke and Jorg Romer entertainingly and compellingly chart the breakthrough research of Falcke's team, an unprecedented global community of international colleagues developing a telescope complex enough to look directly into a black hole - a hole where light vanishes, and time stops.
What does this development mean? Is this the beginning of a new physics? What can we learn from this about God, the world, and ourselves? For Falcke, astrophysics and metaphysics, science and faith, do not exclude one another. Black Hole is both a plea for curiosity and humility; it's interested in both what we know, and the mysteries that remain unsolved.

Christo and Jeanne-Claude
Christo and Jeanne-Claude: the man with the glasses and the woman with the red hair. Each one was born on the same day in 1935, and this unusual artist couple worked together until Jeanne-Claude's death in 2009, changing the art world in the process. In large-scale actions they enveloped buildings and entire landscapes in various materials, revealing at the same time their essence and beauty. In order to finance these enormous works of art by themselves, Christo and Jeanne-Claude began making editions early on in their career-prints, collages, and objects. This completely revised, expanded, and updated catalogue of works, Prints and Objects, is testimony to the artist's impressive scope and to their courage. Who else would have had the idea of building a 120-meter-tall truncated pyramid out of 410,000 oil barrels in the desert of the United Arab Emirates?

History Is All You Left Me
You’re still alive in alternate universes, Theo, but I live in the real world where this morning you’re having an open casket funeral. I know you’re out there, listening. And you should know I’m really pissed because you swore you would never die and yet here we are. It hurts even more because this isn’t the first promise you’ve broken.
OCD-afflicted seventeen-year-old, Griffin, has just lost his first love – his best friend, ex-boyfriend and the boy he believed to be his ultimate life partner – in a drowning accident. In a desperate attempt to hold onto every last piece of the past, a broken Griffin forges a friendship with Theo’s new college boyfriend, Jackson. And Griffin will stop at nothing to learn every detail of Theo’s new college life, and ultimate death. But as the grieving pair grows closer, readers will question Griffin's own version of the truth – both in terms of what he’s willing to hide, and what true love ultimately means...
Praise for History is All You Left Me
"History Is All You Left Me overflows with tenderness and heartache. Even when its hero is screwing up royally, maybe especially then, Silvera's humanity and compassion carve out a space where it's not the falling that's important, it's how you pick yourself back up. There isn't a teenager alive who won't find their heart described perfectly on these pages." Patrick Ness
"Adam Silvera is a master at capturing the infinite small heartbreaks of love and loss and grief. History Is All You Left Me is a beautiful meditation on what it means to survive devastating loss. This book will make you cry, think, and then cry some more." Nicola Yoon

Felix a princeznin prsteň
„Niet lepšieho sprievodcu po hrade ako kocúr. Tu sa vsunie, tam sa poobšmieta, tam
povyskočí, dostane sa všade. A máte šťastie, že je váš sprievodca veľmi zvedavý. Chce sa
dozvedieť, prečo je hrad dnes hore nohami. Zdá sa, že sa všetko pripravuje na výnimočnú
slávnosť.“
“There is no better castle guide than the tomcat. Here he sneaks through, there he hangs
out and jumps up. Basically, he can get everywhere. And you are lucky, your guide is
very curious. He wants to find out why the castle seems upside down today. It looks like
everything is getting ready for some special celebration.”
Milan Kolcun

Falls Boys
ARO
Hawken Trent. So polite. So sweet. Such an upstanding young man.
A virgin, too, I hear. He never gets naughty with a girl. Probably because Jesus told him not to.
And now here he is, trying to be the hero by protecting another girl from me.
He calls me a bully. Irrational. Unreasonable. A criminal. He can call me anything he wants, I've heard worse.
And he can try to stand between me and my money, but he's never had to fight for food. That rich, clean, school boy doesn't have what it takes.
HAWKE
I surprised her. You should've seen her face.
Just because I don't have a record, honey, doesn't mean I'm clean. It just means I'm better at not getting caught.
That is until I realize I might've actually gone too far this time.
She's there. I'm there. The scene of the crime.
It's dark. The police show up.
We have no choice. We run. Down High Street, into Quinn's bake shop, and I pull her through the entrance to the old speakeasy that everyone forgot was here decades ago.
The door locks, the cops circle the building, never knowing we're right here, and I'm hidden in plain sight, indefinitely, with someone's who's awful.
Mean. Rough. Dirty.
A thief. A delinquent.
Until one night, lost in all of these rooms together, I don't see any of those things anymore.
She's smart. Daring. Soft . . . Irresistible.
*FALLS BOYS is a standalone, new adult romance suitable for readers 18+. It contains harsh language, violence, and sexual situations. Reading the Fall Away series prior to this is helpful, but not necessary.

Lacná kniha Veteran (-70%)
A collection of five heart-stopping stories from the master thriller writer. A miracle in war-torn Siena that begins with the persecution of a young nun in the turbulent days of the sixteenth century and culminates in the bitter German retreat from Italy; a drug smuggling heist on an international flight where the Knock pit their wits against the smugglers; a brural urban murder, where a brilliant QC decides to defend the killers, resulting in a startling justice; an incandescent art scam at a famous London auction house, and a brilliantly plotted revenge that shatters the elegant world of the Old Masters - each story is a remarkable tour de force. And above all here is a brilliant novella, 'Whispering Wind', which begins with the single survivor of Custer's Last Stand at the battle of Little Big Horn. Then follows the rescue from rape and murder of a Cheyenne girl and a flight across the mountains and forests of the West, ending in a savage present-day manhunt in the wild lands of Montana.
