Bledý jezdec - Bernard Cornwell - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Nevěří v Boha ani svého krále, přesto na něm závisí osud křesťanského království… Mladý northumbrijský velmož Uhtred z Bebbanburgu pomohl Sasům zvítězit nad vikinskými nájezdníky v bitvě u Cynuitu, během níž vlastnoručně připravil o život obávaného válečníka Ubbu Lothbroksona. Nyní však západosaské království Wessex čelí novému přílivu krvelačných Dánů, který zažene krále Alfreda a jeho věrné až do nepřístupných bažin, kde jsou nuceni skrývat se před nepřáteli jako nějací psanci. Zbožný panovník usilující o sjednocení Anglie, jemuž historie dala přídomek Veliký, se však nevzdává a pomalu shromažďuje vojsko, s nímž chce pohanské vetřelce vyhnat ze své země. Uhtred hraje v jeho plánech klíčovou roli, jejich vztah ovšem není zrovna ideální – horkokrevný mladý válečník totiž chová více sympatií k divokým Seveřanům než ke svému králi, který spíše než středověkého rytíře připomíná křesťanského světce. Jemu však přísahal věrnost a také by jednou rád získal zpět své panství, k čemuž by mu mohl dopomoci právě Alfred. Tedy pokud nad dánskou přesilou dokáže s Boží pomocí zvítězit… Pokračování dobrodružné ságy z raně středověké Anglie, která se stala předlohou úspěšného seriálu Poslední království. „Meče, štíty, bahno a krev. V rukou mistra skvělé rekvizity.“ – Kirkus Reviews. „Tak důmyslně a energicky odvyprávěné historické příběhy, jaké píše Cornwell, jsou nedostatkovým zbožím.“ – Bill Sheehan, The Washington Post.

Psal se rok osmistý sedmdesátý osmý, bylo mi jednadvacet let a věřil jsem, že jsem schopen dosáhnout svým mečem všeho na světě…“ Po vítězství v bitvě u Ethandunu má Uhtred z Bebbanburgu věru co slavit: šiky nepřátelských nájezdníků byly rozprášeny a Alfredovo království Wessex přežilo z nemalé části právě jeho přičiněním. Srdnatý mladík však nezapomíná na křivdy, které mu kdysi způsobil zlovolný strýc Ælfric, a míří proto do Northumbrie, aby se pomstil za útrapy v útlém dětství. Jenže býčí odhodlání ani rytířská horkokrevnost nebudou bijci nic platné, poleví-li v ostražitosti. Ironií osudu namísto na bebbanburský trůn usedá k veslu otrokářského plavidla, z nějž očividně nelze uniknout jinak než coby mrtvola hozená přes palubu. Uhtred si však umanul v plánu vytrvat a pátrá, kde nechal tesař díru. A poštěstí se mu. Schyluje se totiž k další řeži, která může rozhodnout o osudu Anglie – a u té on rozhodně nehodlá chybět… Třetí díl dobrodružné ságy z raně středověké Anglie, která se stala předlohou úspěšného televizního seriálu Poslední království. „Cornwell opět potvrzuje, že historické fikci kraluje. Předkládá příběh plný krvežíznivého válčení a neméně sveřepé cti, okořeněný v pravou chvíli trefným humorem.“ – Library Journal. „Nádherně zpracovaný příběh doplněný výtečně vykreslenými bitevními scénami je natolik poutavý, že se čtenář jen málokdy zastaví, aby popadl dech. V časech, které zobrazuje, by byl jeho tvůrce nejžádanějším bavičem Alfredova dvora.“ – Daily Mail. „Vskutku mimořádné vyprávění se zakládá na velmi podrobném průzkumu mentality anglosaské éry. – Observer. „Autor vytahuje na světlo přízraky historie devátého století a obaluje jejich kostry novým, živým masem. Díky němu je svět krále Alfreda znovu obnoven, dokonale podložen a s vášní mistra vypravěče také barvitě vykreslen.“ – Justin Pollard, autor knihy Alfréd Veliký.

Decoding the Language of God - George C. Cunningham
In his bestselling book, The Language of God, Francis Collins-the director of the National Institutes of Health and the scientist who led the Human Genome Project-attempted to harmonize the findings of scientific research with Christian belief. In this response to Collins s work, fellow geneticist George C. Cunningham presents a point-by-point rebuttal of The Language of God, arguing that there is no scientifically acceptable evidence to support belief in a personal God and much that discredits it.Written with admirable clarity for the nonscientist, Decoding the Language of God covers much of the same ground addressed by Collins in his book: the origins of moral behavior, the difficulty of reconciling belief in a good God with the existence of evil.and anthropic coincidences as evidence of God as creator.Cunningham also devotes chapters to the unreliability of the Bible as a basis for belief; the conflict between naturalistic explanations of reality, which are anchored in scientific research, and supernatural interpretations, which are not; and the many difficulties in conceptualizing the origins of the universe in terms of a personal God. Unlike recent hostile attacks on religious belief, Cunningham s respectful, well-reasoned discussion will appeal to open-minded people across the whole spectrum of belief and unbelief.

Ring of Salt - Betsy Cornwell
;Ring of Salt is so vast and tender and urgent, it s almost like reading a novel. I couldn t put it down. I haven t cheered for a heroine like Betsy in ages. Jen Hatmaker, New York Times bestselling author of Awake Maid meets Under the Tuscan Sun in this inspiring and lyrical memoir about a writer and mother who flees an abusive marriage and must learn to reclaim the story of her life through a search for home on Ireland s wild, western coast.At twenty-four, Betsy Cornwell runs away to Ireland for a fresh start. Leaving behind a painful past, she chases her dream of becoming a novelist to the misty shores of the Aran Islands. There she meets a handsome and charming horse trainer, and her life takes on the glow of a fairy tale when they elope to Gretna Green. Five years later, her happy ending has twisted into a nightmare. Betsy is trapped in an abusive marriage, isolated and afraid with a newborn baby. On her son s first birthday, she must flee home again, this time turning to the women around herher local survivor support group, a trusted family friend, and an online Smith College alumnae networkfor help she d never known she could ask for. After a brush with homelessness, she struggles to scrape together a living for herself and her son. On sleepless nights, she scrolls through real estate listings that might as well be castles in the air, and starts to foster an impossible dream: What if she could use her writing to buy a home, one that no one could take away from her and her baby? One that might become a haven, not just for her family, but other single parent artists and writers, too? When she discovers a historic knitting factory and former cinema on Ireland s rugged Connemara coastline, left empty and crumbling for years, that precarious dream becomes her lifeline. Over the next two years she works to crowdfund the old knitting factory s purchase by sharing its story and her own, in candid posts that range from the unexpectedly steep learning curves she encounters with home renovations and internet dating, to her heartbreaking fight to keep custody of her son, with her growing online community. But as the deadline to buy nears, she realizes she will have to reckon with everything she believes about family, survival, and what happily-ever-after truly means for her dream to have any chance of coming true. Ring of Salt combines a powerful and relatable narrative of survivorship and healing with lush writing about the windswept landscapes and rich mythology of rural Ireland to craft a real-world fairy tale about the ordinary, but no less life-changing, forms of magic we can all access: vulnerability, community, and the power of telling your own story.

The Improbability of God
A growing number of powerful arguments have been formulated by philosophers and logicians in recent years demonstrating that the existence of God is improbable. These arguments assume that God s existence is possible but argue that the weight of the empirical evidence is against God s actual existence. This unique anthology collects most of the important arguments for the improbability of God that have been published since the mid-1900s. The editors make each argument clear and accessible by providing a helpful summary. In addition, they arrange this diverse collection of arguments for the improbability of God into four thematic groups: Part 1 contains cosmological arguments based on the weight of the evidence relative to the origin of the universe; Part 2 presents teleological arguments based on the weight of the evidence relative to the order in the universe; Part 3 deals with inductive evil arguments based on the weight of the evidence relative to the widespread and horrendous evil in the world; and Part 4 contains nonbelief arguments based on the weight of the evidence relative to the widespread nonbelief or the reasonable nonbelief in the world. The list of distinguished authors includes William Rowe, Theodore Drange, Quentin Smith, Victor Stenger, J. L. Schellenberg, and Michael Martin, among others. With this new anthology as a companion to their earlier anthology, The Impossibility of God (2003), Martin and Monnier have created an indispensable resource in the philosophy of religion.

A History of God - Karen Armstrongová
The idea of a single devine being - God, Yahweh, Allah - has existed for over 4,000 years. But the history of God is also the history of human struggle. While Judaism, Islam and Christianity proclaim the goodness of God, organised religion has too often been the catalyst for violence and ineradicable prejudice. In this fascinating, extensive and original account of the evolution of belief, Karen Armstrong examines Western society s unerring fidelity to this idea of One God and the many conflicting convictions it engenders. A controversial, extraordinary story of worship and war, A History of God confronts the most fundamental fact - or fiction - of our lives.

The Book of Pslams - David Javerbaum, The Holy Ghost, Jesus, God
Just in time for the Apocalypse comes a new Biblical scripture from God and thirteen-time Emmy Award–winning comedy writer David Javerbaum.3,000 years ago, King David wrote The Book of Psalms—hymns in praise of God that became famous worldwide. Now, with humanity on the verge of a self-generated catastrophe, God (with the help of another David) has decided to return, and reverse, the favor. God has collected a cornucopia of insults of the human race in the form of prose, poetry, and parody. From topics as diverse as COVID-19, Trump, racism, abortion, meth, math, and on a lighter note, the platypus, God provides a 21st-century spin on life’s many problems. And he’s not alone: his son Jesus Christ has contributed thirty sermons of his own, updating some of his Biblical teachings for the modern audience. Even the Holy Ghost stops by to make sure you don’t forget him. Anybody who’s a fan @TheTweetofGod and/or NOT a fan of the human race is sure to love The Book of Pslams.

Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya on the Invocation of God - Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya
In describing al-Wabil al-Sayyib, here translated into English for the first time as Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya on the Invocation of God, the author says, We have mentioned [in it] nearly one hundred benefits of remembrance of God [dhikr], and the secrets of remembrance... This is a book of great usefulness. Written in the fourteenth century by the renowned theologian Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya, this treatise movingly details the many blessings of the remembrance of God. Through discussions of the ego, the nature of the body, the ephemerality of the world, the degrees of prayer, fasting, charity, and the purification of the heart, this beautifully written work is a genuine contribution to Muslim spirituality.What makes Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya on the Invocation of God of great interest is that it illustrates the spiritual life of Ibn Qayyim and of his teacher, the Hanbalite reformer Ibn Taymiyya (1263AH/1328AD).
