Max Einsteinová: Geniální experiment - James Patterson, Chris Grabenstein

Dvanáctiletá Max Einsteinová je sice sirotek, ale zato jí to vážně pálí. Nabourá se do počítačové sítě největší univerzity v New Yorku, aby si zařídila přístup ke studiu (i když testy nesnáší), chrlí nápady na pomoc lidem bez domova a ráda si před vyučováním v parku střihne partičku bleskových šachů. Její bláznivý, ale vlastně jednotvárný život nabere na obrátkách, když... Max osloví tajuplná mezinárodní organizace! S jakým záměrem? Ničím menším než za pomoci vědy vyřešit ty nejpalčivější problémy dnešního světa. V rozmanitém týmu složeném z dalších malých géniů ze všech koutů zeměkoule se Max vrhá do vymýšlení neotřelých způsobů, jak zavést elektřinu do zapomenutých afrických končin. Jenže cestu jí zkříží agenti nechvalně známé Korporace, která by Maxin mozek ráda využila pro své vlastní účely... James Patterson získal od National Book Foundation prestižní ocenění za výjimečný přínos americkému literárnímu společenství. Je držitelem Guinessova světového rekordu za nejvíc bestsellerů na prvním místě v žebříčku New York Times, například díky knihám Middle School, Já, srandista nebo Jacky Ha-Ha.

Kočka vs. Pes - James Patterson, Chris Grabenstein - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Psi a kočky se odjakživa nesnáší. A basta! Teda dokud nejde o život... Oskar je rozjařené štěně a zapálený psí skaut. Díky své rodině dobře ví, že nafoukané kočky se nehodí k ničemu jinému než k nahánění na stromy. Molly je chytré kotě, jistá budoucí slavná filmová hvězda. Pochází z rodiny ušlechtilých koček, jež uslintanými a nechutnými psy pohrdají! Oba celý život poslouchají, jak se psi a kočky vzájemně nenávidí. Jednoho dne se Molly a následně i Oskar beznadějně ztratí v lesích, a když se jejich cesty zkříží, vyplavou tyto celoživotní předsudky na povrch v celé své kráse. Pomalu ale začnou chápat, že jediným způsobem, jak přežít a najít cestu zpátky domů, je… spolupráce?! No jasně, k tomu přece nemůže ani náhodou dojít! Opravdu zábavný příběh pro všechny, kteří milují kočky a/nebo psy. „Tato směs frašky, bajky a grotesky nakonec přináší hluboké a relevantní poselství.“ — Publishers Weekly. „Patterson a Grabenstein očividně zastávají názor, že spolupráce je lepší než předsudky založené na nevědomosti a zvyku… Napsali vskutku vtipný příběh s vážným (a aktuálním) tématem.“― Kirkus Reviews.

Ghost Stories - M.R.James

Malignant forces and supernatural visitors haunt these superbly spooky tales, selected and introduced by Ruth Rendell M. R. James wrote his ghost stories to entertain friends on Christmas Eve, and they went on to both transform and modernize a genre. James harnesses the power of suggestion to move from a recognizable world to one that is indefinably strange, and then unforgettably terrifying. Sheets, pictures, carvings, a doll''s house, a lonely beach, a branch tapping on a window—ordinary things take on more than a tinge of dread in the hands of the original master of suspense. James''s prescription for his ghost stories was to "let the ominous thing put out its head, unobtrusively at first, and then more insistently, until it holds the stage."
