Lacná kniha The Tyrant’s Tomb The Trials of Apollo Book 4
You will get to the Tiber alive. You will start to Jive.
I am Apollo
I will remember
The former God Apollo, cast out by his father, Zeus, is having a pretty rough time of it.
Well, for one thing, he's called Lester. But being an awkward mortal teenager is the least of his worries.
Though he and his friends (some of them) have emerged from the Burning Maze, rescued the Oracle and lived to fight another day, they can't escape the tragedy that has befallen them, or the terrible trials still to face.
So, with heavy heart, Apollo (OK, Lester) and Meg have a triumvirate still to defeat, oracles to rescue, and prophecies to decipher, so that the world may be saved, and Lester may ascend into the heavens to become Apollo once again.
But, right now, Caligula is sailing to San Francisco to deal with Camp Jupiter personally, and they have to get their first.
Or risk its destruction . . .

The Dark Prophecy (The Trials of Apollo Book 2)
The second title in Rick Riordan's Trials of Apollo series - set in the action-packed world of Percy Jackson.
The god Apollo, cast down to earth and trapped in the form of a gawky teenage boy as punishment, must set off on the second of his harrowing (and hilarious) trials.
He and his companions seek the ancient oracles - restoring them is the only way for Apollo to reclaim his place on Mount Olympus - but this is easier said than done.
Somewhere in the American Midwest is a haunted cave that may hold answers for Apollo in his quest to become a god again . . . if it doesn't kill him or drive him insane first. Standing in Apollo's way is the second member of the evil Triumvirate - a Roman emperor whose love of bloodshed and spectacle makes even Nero look tame.
To survive the encounter, Apollo will need the help of a now-mortal goddess, a bronze dragon, and some familiar demigod faces from Camp Half-Blood. With them by his side, can Apollo face down the greatest challenge of his four thousand years of existence?

Smrtící Apollo
1973: přísně tajná mise v rámci posledního letu na Měsíc. Tři astronauti v maličké kosmické lodi čtyři sta tisíc kilometrů od domova. Čtyři sta tisíc kilometrů od jakékoliv pomoci.
NASA se chystá vypustit Apollo 18. Ačkoliv se tato mise tváří jako vědecká, letový kontrolor Kazimieras „Kaz“ Zemeckis ví, že její účel má temnější pozadí. Zpravodajské služby totiž odhalily, že Ameriku tajně špehuje sovětská vesmírná stanice, a Apollo 18 představuje možná jedinou šanci, jak jí v tom zabránit.
Zatímco se Kaz snaží, aby posádka vybraná NASA zůstala před ruskými rivaly o krok napřed, dojde k neštěstí, které odkryje, že ne všichni zúčastnění jsou takoví, jak navenek působí. Politicky je v sázce nesmírně mnoho a Bílý dům i Kreml můžou jen přihlížet, jak jejich astronauti soupeří na měsíčním povrchu, kam nedosáhne ruka spravedlnosti a kde není záchrany.
Vraždy v Apollu, překypující fascinujícími technickými detaily, jaké si zamilovali fanoušci románu Marťan, i napínavou klaustrofobií, zvraty a napětím Honu na ponorku, jsou strhujícím thrillerem, který nemá obdoby. Chris Hadfield v něm zachytil drsné přetížení při startu, mrazivou osamělost kosmu i strach člověka, který se drží pláště vesmírné lodi kroužící kolem Země rychlostí 7,5 kilometru za sekundu, tak jak to dokáže pouze někdo, kdo toto všechno zakusil na vlastní kůži.
Připoutejte se a připravte se na jízdu, jakou jste ještě nezažili.

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.

Třetí mise astronautů míří na povrch Měsíce a všechno jde hladce – až do okamžiku, kdy se temným vesmírem rozlehne drtivá exploze. Poškozená vesmírná loď se řítí vesmírem pryč od Země rychlostí třikrát vyšší, než je rychlost zvuku, dochází energie a uniká kyslík. Tým špičkových inženýrů v řídicím středisku v Houstonu pracuje na hraně svých možností, aby dostali trojici astronautů bezpečně zpět.
Sen stanout na povrchu Měsíce se mění v zoufalou bitvu o život, kterou se zatajeným dechem sleduje celý svět.

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.
