Pod ulicami Londýna sa rozprestiera svet, o ktorom väčšina z nás nikdy nepočula. Je to svet príšer, svätcov, vrahov a anjelov, rytierov v lesklej zbroji aj bledých diev v čiernom zamate. Svet tých, ktorí doň prepadli štrbinami z nášho, horného sveta. Richard Mayhew žil ako celkom obyčajný človek, až kým nezachránil dievča, čo sa pred ním zrazu objavilo zranené na ulici. Ani sa nenazdal a ocitol sa vo svete, o akom sa mu nesnívalo v najhorších – a ani najlepších – snoch.

Sigany - Príbehy afrického kmeňa Luo - audiokniha
Viete, prečo si pán Korytnačka nosí všade so sebou svoj dom? Ako kedysi ľudia privolávali dážď, či prečo má slon takú dobrú pamäť? Toto všetko a mnohé iné zaujímavosti sú zaznamenané v siganách, príbehoch afrického kmeňa Luo.
Sigany zozbierala, prerozprávala a v jazyku Luo naspievala Sheba Juliet, tak ako si ich od nepamäti rozprávali ľudia z kmeňa Luo v ďalekej Keni.
Každý z piatich príbehov je ilustrovaný, pričom obrázky tvoria omaľovánku určenú pre malých poslucháčov.
Do you know why Mr. Turtle carries his house everywhere he moves? How people in the past used to invoke rain or why an elephant has such a good memory? You can find this and much more in siganas, stories of african tribe Luo.
Sheba Juliet collected and narrated them, and sang original songs in Luo. She brings us siganas in the form that Luo people used to pass them on since ages in Kenya.
Each of the five stories is illustrated and the illustrations form a coloring book for young listeners.

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
(sprievodca a spisovateľ/Tourist Guide and Writer)

Herc
This should be the story of Hercules: his twelve labours, his endless adventures…everyone’s favourite hero, right? Well, it’s not.
This is the story of everyone else:
Alcmene: Herc’s mother (She has knives everywhere)
Hylas: Herc’s first friend (They were more than friends)
Megara: Herc’s wife (She’ll tell you about their marriage)
Eurystheus: Oversaw Herc’s labours (He never asked for the job)
His friends, his enemies, his wives, his children, his lovers, his rivals, his gods, his victims.
It’s time to hear their stories.
Told with humour and heart, Herc gives voice to the silenced characters, in this feminist, queer (and sometimes shocking) retelling of classic Hercules myth.
Perfect for fans of Madeline Miller and Joanne M. Harris
Love Theoretically
From the author of tiktok sensations and global bestsellers The Love Hypothesis and Love on the Brain.
Rival physicists collide in a vortex of academic feuds and fake dating shenanigans in this delightfully STEMinist romcom.
The many lives of theoretical physicist Elsie Hannaway have finally caught up with her. By day, she's an adjunct professor, toiling away at grading labs and teaching thermodynamics in the hopes of landing tenure. By other day, Elsie makes up for her non-existent paycheck by offering her services as a fake girlfriend, tapping into her expertly honed people-pleasing skills to embody whichever version of herself the client needs.
Honestly, it's a pretty sweet gig - until her carefully constructed Elsie-verse comes crashing down. Because Jack Smith, the annoyingly attractive and arrogant older brother of her favourite client, turns out to be the cold-hearted experimental physicist who ruined her mentor's career and undermined the reputation of theorists everywhere. And he's the same Jack Smith who rules over the physics department at MIT, standing right between Elsie and her dream job.
Elsie is prepared for an all-out war of scholarly sabotage but... those long, penetrating looks? Not having to be anything other than her true self when she's with him? Will falling into an experimentalist's orbit finally tempt her to put her most guarded theories on love into practice?
