The Starless Sea
Are you lost or are you exploring?
When Zachary Rawlins stumbles across a strange book hidden in his university library it leads him on a quest unlike any other. Its pages entrance him with their tales of lovelorn prisoners, lost cities and nameless acolytes, but they also contain something impossible: a recollection from his own childhood.
Determined to solve the puzzle of the book, Zachary follows the clues he finds on the cover - a bee, a key and a sword. They guide him to a masquerade ball, to a dangerous secret club, and finally through a magical doorway created by the fierce and mysterious Mirabel. This door leads to a subterranean labyrinth filled with stories, hidden far beneath the surface of the earth.
When the labyrinth is threatened, Zachary must race with Mirabel, and Dorian, a handsome barefoot man with shifting alliances, through its twisting tunnels and crowded ballrooms, searching for the end of his story.
You are invited to join Zachary on the starless sea: the home of storytellers, story-lovers and those who will protect our stories at all costs.

The Starless Sea
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Night Circus, a timeless love story set in a secret underground world--a place of pirates, painters, lovers, liars, and ships that sail upon a starless sea. Zachary Ezra Rawlins is a graduate student in Vermont when he discovers a mysterious book hidden in the stacks. As he turns the pages, entranced by tales of lovelorn prisoners, key collectors, and nameless acolytes, he reads something strange: a story from his own childhood. Bewildered by this inexplicable book and desperate to make sense of how his own life came to be recorded, Zachary uncovers a series of clues--a bee, a key, and a sword--that lead him to a masquerade party in New York, to a secret club, and through a doorway to an ancient library hidden far below the surface of the earth. What Zachary finds in this curious place is more than just a buried home for books and their guardians--it is a place of lost cities and seas, lovers who pass notes under doors and across time, and of stories whispered by the dead. Zachary learns of those who have sacrificed much to protect this realm, relinquishing their sight and their tongues to preserve this archive, and also of those who are intent on its destruction. Together with Mirabel, a fierce, pink-haired protector of the place, and Dorian, a handsome, barefoot man with shifting alliances, Zachary travels the twisting tunnels, darkened stairwells, crowded ballrooms, and sweetly soaked shores of this magical world, discovering his purpose--in both the mysterious book and in his own life.

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...
20 000 Leagues Under the Sea - zrcadlová četba
Profesor Arronax ví vše, co je známo, o stvořeních, která žijí v moři. Na toto téma přečetl všechny knihy! Takže když uslyší o záhadné mořské nestvůře, která útočí na lodě, požádá svého přítele Conseila, aby mu tu strašlivou bestii pomohl vypátrat. K jejich štěstí se k nim při podmořském dobrodružství připojí Ned Land. Ned je statečný námořník, který se nebezpečí nebojí. Což je jenom dobře…
Dvacet tisíc mil pod mořem / 20 000 Leagues Under the Sea, 2. vydání
Dvacet tisíc mil pod mořem (zkrácené dvojjazyčné vydání) převyprávěné moderním jazykem, pro začínající a mírně pokročilé angličtináře. Děj románu začíná roku 1866, kdy se v anglických listech objevila zmínka o jakémsi mořském netvoru ohromných rozměrů, který napadá lodě. Jedni říkali, že je to ponorka a druzí tvrdili, že se jedná o dosud neznámého tvora. Američané vyslali na moře fregatu Abraham Lincoln, která měla za úkol záhadu vyjasnit. Výpravy se zúčastnil francouzský přírodovědec profesor Aronnax se svým sluhou Conseilem, kteří se na lodi seznámili s harpunářem Nedem Landem. Dvojjazyčné (zrcadlové) knihy patří mezi vhodné studijní doplňky pro výuku cizích jazyků. Texty v originálním jazyce jsou doplněny zrcadlovým českým překladem (nachází se po levé straně knihy). Většina nabízených dvojjazyčných knih je určena pro mírně pokročilé studenty.
Sestry zo Sea View, 1. diel
Niektorí hostia prišli na dovolenku, iných do Sea View priviedli ich vlastné skryté dôvody...
Keď sa po otcovej smrti ocitnú v chudobe, Sarah Summersová presvedčí svoje sestry, aby v rodičovskom dome pri mori zriadili penzión, lebo iba tak sa dokážu postarať o chorľavú matku. Emily a Georgiana súhlasia, ale Viole, ktorá nosí závoj, aby skryla svoju jazvu, sa ten nápad nepáči.
Sestry, odhodlané zostať spolu, sa pustia do podnikania. Namiesto starých invalidov, ktorých očakávajú, však vo svojom dome čoskoro hostia džentlmenov súcich na ženenie. Sarah váha medzi svojou silnejúcou náklonnosťou k tajomnému škótskemu vdovcovi a povinnosťou voči rodine. Nová situácia medzitým odhalí Violine jazvy — viditeľné aj skryté hlboko v nej — a jej uzavreté srdce sa navždy zmení.

The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea - A lány, aki a tenger alá esett
A végzet nem téved.
Mina otthonát 100 éve viharok pusztítják. A Tengeristen dühös, és haragját csak igazi menyasszonya csillapíthatja.
A falu minden évben feláldoz egy lányt, hátha pont ő a vágyott menyasszony. Amikor Mina bátyjának szerelme, Sim Cshong kerül sorra, Mina feláldozza magát, és beugrik a vízbe a lány helyett. A Szellemek birodalmába kerül, ahol elképesztő kalandok várnak rá egy titokzatos lord és cimborái, démonok, istenek és istennők, szellemek és misztikus lények között.
A szerelem is megtalálja, ám nem a Tengeristen mellett. Vagy mégis? Vagy mégsem? A sors ahhoz köti, akihez tartozik.
