Čas rytířů dalekých moří / The Time of the Knights of the Far Seas
Tato kniha je téměř zjevením. Zpřístupňuje totiž poklad, o který již léta pečuje brněnské Moravské zemské muzeum. V dosud nepublikované šíři tak můžete listovat fotografiemi ze sbírky Jindřicha Vávry, námořního lékaře a přírodovědce. Vávra byl nejstarším českým cestovatelem, který cíleně sbíral fotografické doklady ze svých zámořských cest, během nichž také dvakrát obeplul svět. Jeho fotografická sbírka z let 18651879, čítající na 1 300 fotografií, je zcela mimořádná. K nejpůsobivějším patří záběry z východní a jihovýchodní Asie, z Austrálie či ze severní Afriky. Vedle řady anonymních děl zahrnuje Vávrova sbírka také albuminové pozitivy z éry mokrého kolodiového procesu od fotografů světové proslulosti, jakým byl Samuel Bourne či Wilhelm Burger. Za své zásluhy v oblasti vědy byl Vávra vedle jiných ocenění honorován čestným titulem rytíř Dalekých moří.
Perfektně vypravená publikace poskytuje zcela nevšední zážitek, a to díky fotografiím, ze kterých na vás dýchne atmosféra dalekých a exotických zemí z časů před sto padesáti lety. Obohatí tak nejen milovníky fotografie a historie, ale i vášnivé cestovatele.

I have heard that for mortals, the feeling of falling in love is very like the feeling of fear.
Jude has tricked Cardan onto the throne, binding him to her for a year and a day. But the new High King does everything in his power to humiliate and undermine her, even as his fascination with her remains undimmed. Meanwhile, a traitor in the court is scheming against her. Jude must fight for her life and the lives of those she loves, all while battling her own complicated feelings for Cardan. Now a year and a day seems like no time at all . . .

"A dark jewel of a book . . . intoxicating" - Leigh Bardugo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Six of Crows
Nominated for the CILIP CARNEGIE MEDAL 2019
Of course I want to be like them. They're beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever.
And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest. I hate him more than all the others. I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe.
One terrible morning, Jude and her sisters see their parents murdered in front of them. The terrifying assassin abducts all three girls to the world of Faerie, where Jude is installed in the royal court but mocked and tormented by the Faerie royalty for being mortal.
As Jude grows older, she realises that she will need to take part in the dangerous deceptions of the fey to ever truly belong.
But the stairway to power is fraught with shadows and betrayal. And looming over all is the infuriating, arrogant and charismatic Prince Cardan . . .
Dramatic and thrilling fantasy blends seamlessly with enthralling storytelling to create a fully realised and seductive world, brimful of magic and romance.
2Pac - Until The End Of Time 2CD
Tupac Amaru Shakur (rod. Lesane Parish Crooks;* 16. jún 1971, Spanish Harlem, Manhattan, New York – † 13. september 1996, Las Vegas, Nevada), známy aj pod umeleckým menom 2Pac alebo ako Makaveli, bol americký raper a herec. Do roku 2010 sa po celom svete predalo viac ako 75 miliónov jeho albumov, čím sa stal jedným z najpredávanejších hudobných umelcov na svete. Televízna stanica MTV ho zaradila na 2. miesto vo svojom zozname The Greatest MCs of All Time a časopis Rolling Stone ho zaradil na 86. miesto vo svojom zozname Greatest Artist of All Time. Jeho dvojdiskový album s názvom All Eyez on Me sa stal jedným z najpredávanejších hip-hopových albumov všetkých čias. Tupac mal veľké úspechy aj po smrti, a preto si Eminem zakúpil práva na produkciu Shakurovho albumu Loyal to the Game aby sa album dokončil. Guinnesova kniha rekordov ho taktiež zaradila medzi najúspešnejšieho rapera všetkých čias so 75 miliónmi predaných albumov. V hiphopovej komunite je považovaný za najváženejšieho rapera.
Until the End of Time je siedmy štúdiový album a tretí posmrtný album. Nadväzuje na jeho predchádzajúce posmrtné albumy R U Still Down? (Remember Me) a Still I Rise. Album pozostáva z materiálu, ktorý bol nahraný, keď bol rapper na Death Row Records v rokoch 1995 až 1996. Album debutoval na prvom mieste v americkom rebríčku Billboard 200 a za prvý týždeň sa z neho predalo 426 870 kópií. Album získal štvornásobnú platinu od Recording Industry Association of America.

Through text and photographs we gain a heartfelt understanding of the fine detail and delicate artistry that is the hallmark of mechanical watchmaking at its highest echelons.

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.

The Education of an Idealist
'Her highly personal and reflective memoir ... is a must-read for anyone who cares about our role in a changing world' Barack Obama
THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY:
The New York Times * Time * The Economist * The Washington Post * Vanity Fair * Times Literary Supplement
'What can one person do?' In this vibrant, galvanizing memoir, human rights advocate and Pulitzer-Prize winning writer Samantha Power offers an urgent response to this question.
As she traces her path from Irish immigrant to war correspondent and activist to eventually becoming the youngest-ever US Ambassador to the United Nations, Power writes with a unique blend of suspenseful storytelling, vivid character portraits and disarming honesty.
Her account illuminates the challenges of navigating the halls of power while trying to put one's ideals into practice (and raise two young children along the way), and it shows how - even in the face of daunting challenges - each of us can make a difference.

Ambition will fuel him.
Competition
will drive him.
But power has its price.
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth
annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus
Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games.
The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its
fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able
to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuvre his fellow students to mentor
the winning tribute.
The odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment
of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest
of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined - ; every
choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favour or failure, triumph
or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside
the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute...
and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire
to survive no matter what it takes.
Na konci cesty - Krematórium v Bratislave - At the End of the Road The Bratislava Crematorium
Kniha sa podrobne zaoberá mimoriadnym architektonickým dielom - bratislavským krematóriom. Postavili ho pred pol storočím (1968) za neobyčajne priaznivej súhry okolností, no predchádzal tomu dlhý zápas o jeho zriadenie, ktorého počiatky siahajú až do roku 1889. Preto kniha približuje aj históriu moderného kremačného hnutia v Európe so zreteľom na dlhý zápas mesta Bratislava o krematórium, ďalej sa zaoberá domácimi a zahraničnými architektonickými podnetmi, ktoré ovplyvnili architektúru objektu. Okrem príbehu samotnej budovy a urnového hája, v ktorom stojí, sa dočítate o tvorivej dráhe autora budovy, architekta Ferdinanda Milučkého, príslušníka prvej povojnovej slovenskej architektonickej generácie, ale aj súvislostiach vzniku pozoruhodných výtvarných diel z areálu krematória - sôch od troch špičkových slovenských výtvarníkov. Text Matúša Dullu v slovenčine a angličtine sprevádzajú umelecké fotografie Olje Triašky Stefanović. Snímky citlivo zachytávajú premeny krematória a prostredia, v ktorom sa nachádza, počas jednotlivých ročných období. Publikácia vychádza pri príležitosti päťdesiateho výročia vzniku prvého slovenského krematória.
