Roxy - Neal Shusterman, Jarrod Shusterman

From the team that brought you the New York Times bestselling Dry comes a riveting new thriller that explores the opioid crisis.? The freeway is coming. It will cut the neighborhood in two. Construction has already started, pushing toward this corridor of condemned houses and cracked concrete with the momentum of the inevitable. Yet there you are, in the fifth house on the left, fighting for your life. Ramey, I. The victim of the bet between two manufactured gods, Roxy and Addison--Roxicodone and Adderall, the low-level cronies of more illustrious bosses, who more than anything else want to prove their own lethality. The wager--a contest to see who can induce overdose first--is a race to the bottom of a party that has raged since the beginning of time. And you are only human, seduced by the release they bring. Tempted by the control they offer. They are beautiful, and they will give you the world--as long as you promise them forever. But there are two I. Rameys--Isaac, a soccer player thrown into Roxy's orbit by a bad fall and a bad doctor and Ivy, his older sister, whose increasing frustration with her untreated ADHD leads her to renew her acquaintance with Addy.

When the California drought escalates to catastrophic proportions, one teen is forced to make life and death decisions in this harrowing story of survival from New York Times bestselling author Neal Shusterman and Jarrod Shusterman. The drought - or the Tap-Out, as everyone calls it - has been going on for a while now. Everyone's lives have become an endless list of don'ts: don't water the lawn, don't fill up your pool, don't take long showers. Until the taps run dry. Suddenly, Alyssa's quiet suburban street spirals into a warzone of desperation; neighbours and families turned against each other on the hunt for water. And when her parents don't return and her life - and the life of her brother - is threatened, Alyssa has to make impossible choices if she's going to survive.

Nimbus - Neal Shusterman

Rowan se rozhodl, že na vlastní pěst napraví cech smrtek a podrobí jej zkoušce ohněm – a to doslova. Po zimním konkláve zmizel v ústraní a od té doby podniká útoky na zkažené smrtky — nejen ve StředoMerice, ale na celém kontinentu. Stal se z něj lidový hrdina – smrtka Lucifer – který v černé róbě odevzdává zkorumpované smrtky plamenům. Citra, z níž se pod dohledem smrtky Curieové stala mladší smrtka, zkaženost vidí a chce ji změnit zevnitř, ale na každém kroku nachází překážky, a dokonce se ocitá v ohrožení života. Rozkol mezi „starou gardou“ a „novým řádem“ se vyostřuje a vzájemné soupeření přechází od slov k činům. Nad tím vším bdí vševědoucí Nimbus – jediný, kdo má moc řešit závažné problémy dokonalého světa. Ale vloží se do toho, nebo bude jen přihlížet, jak se dokonalost mění v úpadek?

Bez šance - Neal Shusterman

Fascinují a temná dystopie ze světa, kde společnost zavedla nový zákon: Každé dítě má právo na život od chvíle početí až do věku třinácti let. Mezi třinácti a osmnácti je ale na rodičích, jestli ho vychovají až do dospělosti, anebo ho pošlou rozpojit. Tohle nenápadné slovo znamená, že problémové děti, sirotci, anebo prostě ty, které v sobě mají příliš vzdoru, jsou odeslány do sklizňových táborů, kde jsou jejich těla rozebrána a orgány předány těm, co je potřebují. Tři z nich, Connora, Risu a Leva, k sobě na útěku svede náhoda a pohromadě udržuje zoufalství. Vědí, že pokud přežijí do svých osmnáctých narozenin, nemůže se jim nic stát. Jenže když šílený svět prahne po každém jejich kousku, počínaje rukama a srdci konče, osmnáctiny se zdají být velmi vzdálený cíl.

Kosec - Neal Shusterman - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Dvaja tínedžeri sa budú musieť naučiť „umeniu zabíjať" v mrazivej trilógii o cene za nesmrteľnosť. Vo svete budúcnosti už neexistujú vojny, choroby ani hlad – ľuďom sa podarilo zbaviť všetkého utrpenia a dokonca zvíťaziť aj nad smrťou. Jediní, kto má právo ukončiť niečí život, sú „kosci" – ich úlohou je zaistiť, že nedôjde k preľudneniu. Žatva, alebo pravidelné prerieďovanie populácie, so sebou nesie veľkú moc, no aj zodpovednosť, osamelosť a odriekanie. Citra a Rowan ešte ani nedosiahli plnoletosť, no boli vybraní, aby sa stali učňami poslov smrti – pritom ani jeden by si dobrovoľne túto cestu nezvolil. Najmä keď ich jediná chyba môže stáť život. Napriek rozdielnym povahám sa počas zdokonaľovania v smrtonosom remesle postupne zbližujú. Ani dokonalý svet však nie je imúnny voči nevyspytateľnej ľudskej povahe, a tak ich zrada a intrigy z najvyšších kruhov čoskoro postavia proti sebe. Ten, čo v najťažšej skúške uspeje, prežije – a podpíše tým druhému rozsudok smrti.

Nicky & Vera : A Quiet Hero of the Holocaust and the Children He Rescued - Petr Sís

In 1938, twenty-nine-year-old Nicholas Winton saved the lives of almost 700 children trapped in Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia-a story he never told and that remained unknown until an unforgettable TV appearance in the 1980s reunited him with some of the children he saved. Czech-American artist, MacArthur Fellow and Andersen Award winner Peter Sis dramatises Winton's story in this distinctive and deeply personal picture book. He intertwines Nicky's efforts with the story of one of the children he saved-a young girl named Vera, whose family enlisted Nicky's aid when the Germans occupied their country.

Nicky & Vera : A Quiet Hero of the Holocaust and the Children He Rescued (Defekt) - Petr Sís

In 1938, twenty-nine-year-old Nicholas Winton saved the lives of almost 700 children trapped in Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia-a story he never told and that remained unknown until an unforgettable TV appearance in the 1980s reunited him with some of the children he saved. Czech-American artist, MacArthur Fellow and Andersen Award winner Peter Sis dramatises Winton's story in this distinctive and deeply personal picture book. He intertwines Nicky's efforts with the story of one of the children he saved-a young girl named Vera, whose family enlisted Nicky's aid when the Germans occupied their country. As the war passes and Vera grows up, she must find balance in her dual identities-one her birthright, the other her choice. Nicky & Vera is a masterful tribute to a humble man's courageous efforts to protect Europe's most vulnerable, and a timely portrayal of the hopes and fears of those forced to leave their homes and create new lives.

In the Shadow of Edgar Allan Poe : Classic Tales of Horror, 1816-1914 - Edgar Allan Poe, Leslie S.

A masterful collection of horror fiction by widely acclaimed authors whose contributions to the genre have been lost in the shadow of Poe, by one of America's foremost anthologists.Edgar Allan Poe did not invent the tale of terror. There were American, English, and Continental writers who preceded Poe and influenced his work. Similarly, there were many who were in turn influenced by Poe’s genius and produced their own popular tales of supernatural literature. This collection features masterful tales of terror by authors who, by and large, are little-remembered for their writing in this genre. Even Bram Stoker, whose Dracula may be said to be the most popular horror novel of all time, is not known as a writer of short fiction. Distinguished editor Leslie S. Klinger is a world-renowned authority on those twin icons of the Victorian age, Sherlock Holmes, and Dracula. His studies into the forefathers of those giants led him to a broader fascination with writers of supernatural literature of the nineteenth century. The stories in this collection have been selected by him for their impact. Each is preceded by a brief biography of the author and an overview of his or her literary career and is annotated to explain obscure references. Read on, now, perhaps with a flickering candle or flashlight at hand . . . Stories by: Ambrose Bierce, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, Theodor Gautier, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Arthur Conan Doyle, Lafcadio Hearn, M. R. James, Bram Stoker, and many others. Leslie S. Klinger is one of the world’s foremost authorities on Sherlock Holmes. He is the editor of the three-volume set The New Annotated Sherlock Holmes. The first two volumes, The Complete Short Stories, won the Edgar for “Best Critical/Biographical” work. He has just completed The New Annotated H. P. Lovecraft. Klinger is a member of the Baker Street Irregulars and lives in Malibu.

Man´s Search for Meaning: the Classic Tribute to Hope From the Holocaust - Viktor E. Frankl

9 MILLION COPIES SOLD'A book to read, to cherish, to debate, and one that will ultimately keep the memories of the victims alive' John Boyne, author of The Boy in the Striped PyjamasA prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that both he and others in Auschwitz coped (or didn't) with the experience. He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest - and who offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances. The sort of person the concentration camp prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not of camp influences alone. Frankl came to believe man's deepest desire is to search for meaning and purpose. This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering and find significance in the art of living.

The Lost Music of the Holocaust - Francesco Lotoro

Scores sewn into coat linings, instruments hidden in suitcases, sheet music stashed among dirty laundry, concertos written on discarded food wrappers - these are just some of the ingenious ways prisoners in civilian, political and military captivity from 1933 to 1953 protected their music in the darkest of times.Italian pianist and composer Francesco Lotoro has been on a lifelong quest to find this remarkable music. He has painstakingly salvaged and performed symphonies, operas and songs written by the incarcerated musicians, many of whom died in the camps. He has travelled the globe to meet with families and survivors whose harrowing testimonies bear witness to the most devastating experiences in twentieth-century history.Movingly piecing together the human stories of those who wrote and performed whilst imprisoned, this compelling book takes readers on a journey into their extraordinary lives and music, shining a light on a unique beauty that somehow prevailed against all odds.

The Tales of Balaban the Dragon - Jaroslav Perry

Jaroslav Perry's fairy tales about the good dragon Balaban are a great book to read to children before falling asleep in the crib. Every fairy tale has to be the right length. Not too long, not too short.And it takes a pleasant five minutes to read one fairy tale about the dragon Balaban. Children quickly learn the catchy beginning of each fairy tale by heart, so they then tell it with you and are very much looking forward to the next dragon adventure. Don't you believe me? So, try it yourself:Once upon a time, there was a dragon whose name was Balaban. Balaban the dragon was very kind. And he liked children. This warm-hearted dragon had seven heads. And these heads were called Abby, Bunny, Carry, Debby, Elly, Fizzy and Gabby. All the heads had their own mind though and their own ideas. Some of the heads behaved nicely; others had some bad manners – Abby sometimes ate snacks belonging to other heads. Bunny was very good at maths and reading, Carry was always kind and other heads liked her very much, Debby always forgot everything.Elly and Fizzy were twins, and nobody could tell them apart. Even the other heads often did not know which one was which. Gabby always liked to scare shopkeepers.When Balaban the dragon walked past a shop, Gabby stuck her head inside and hooted, ‘Hoo, I’m Balaban the dragon.’ And the shopkeeper got scared out of his wits and fainted.

Tales of Mystery & the Macabre - Elizabeth Gaskellová

With an Introduction by David Stuart Davies. 'In the great mirror opposite I saw myself, and right behind, another wicked fearful self, so like me my soul seemed to quiver within me, as though not knowing to which similitude of body it belonged'. Elizabeth Gaskell is better known today for her pioneering social novels such as Mary Barton (1848) but she also wrote some fascinating tales of the supernatural and the macabre, which are collected here in this volume.The real charm of this dark anthology is its variety. Unlike so many writers of this kind of material, Gaskell allows the story to fit the style rather than the other way around and as result there is a charming freshness to each tale. This remarkable author uses different voices, tones and topics to engage her readers and as you turn from one story to the next you cannot be quite sure what to expect.
