Absolute Preacher Vol. 2 - Garth Ennis, Steve Dillon

Jesse Custer was just a small-town preacher in Texas...until his congregation was flattened by powers beyond his control and the preacher became imbued with abilities beyond anyone''s understanding.Continuing where Absolute Preacher Vol. 1 left off, Jesse now possessed by Genesis—the unholy offspring of an angel and demon—holds Word of God, an ability to command anyone or anything with a mere utterance. And he''ll use this power to hold the Lord accountable for the people He has forsaken.From the ashes of a small-town church to the bright lights of New York City to the backwoods of Louisiana, Jesse Custer cuts a righteous path across the soul of America in his quest for the divine--an effort that will be met by every evil that Heaven and Earth can assemble. Joined by his gun-toting girlfriend, Tulip, and the hard-drinking Irish vampire Cassidy, Jesse will stop at nothing to fulfill his quest to find God.

Preacher - Garth Ennis, Steve Dillon

Zlý, ještě horší a ošklivý Při svém pátrání po uprchlém Bohu, kterého hodlá hnát k odpovědnosti, narazil Jesse Custer na spoustu divných existencí - a není žádným překvapením, že mnohé z nich mají svůj vlastní podivuhodný příběh. Pradávná historie je sbírkou několika takových příběhů, které původně vyšly jako samostatné speciály. V hlavních rolích tu vystupují některé z nejbarvitějších vedlejších postav série Kazatel: "Svatý zabiják" nám vyjeví kompletní proces vzniku Custerovy nadpřirozené nemesis, jenž se odehrál jak na zamrzlých pláních Divokého západu, tak v těch nejžhavějších zákoutích samotného pekla; "Hoši z Jihu" se ohlédnou za idyličtějšími časy čtyřiadvacetikarátových buranů Jodyho a T. C., kteří za radostné pomocí celého arzenálu klišé akčních filmů čirou náhodou překazí plány mezinárodních teroristů; v "Příběhu-Vy-Víte-Koho" pro změnu zavítáme do světa frustrujícího dospívání na maloměstě, abychom byli svědky tragické frašky, která dala světu Prdelmana; a v Cassidyho flashbacku "Krev a whisky" odkryjeme něco z temné minulosti tohoto irského upíra spojené s neworleánským společenstvím Les Enfants Du Sang. Pradávná historie vychází jako závěrečná kniha preacherovské série, ságy, která patří k nejoceňovanějším titulům devadesátých let. Scenárista Garth Ennis a kreslíř Steve Dillon ji stvořili coby moderní americkou epopej, v níž dojde na tak zásadní věci jako život, smrt, lásku i vykoupení, nemluvě o věcech ještě zásadnějších jako je spousta sexu, alkoholu, krve a zbraní - a to ani nezmiňujeme anděle, démony, Boha, upíry a úchyly všech druhů. Pradávná historie představuje rozloučení s jedním z nejdivočejších a nejintenzivnějších příběhů, jaký se v komiksovém formátu kdy objevil.

Thor - Vikingové - Garth Ennis, Glenn Fabry

Někdy i bůh hromu narazí na protivníky, na které prostě nestačí. Třeba na nemrtvé vikingy, kteří po tisíci letech putování přistáli na Manhattanu a začali s drancováním. Aby měl šanci, musí dát dohromady tým krví spojených bojovníků z různých historických epoch. Stačí ale vikingská bojovnice, fanatický křižák a nacistický pilot k zastavení nemrtvé hrozby? I když vychází komiks právě ve chvíli, kdy se chystá do kin filmový Thor, tak Vikingové nejsou adaptace filmu. Tenhle Thor vyšel v rámci dospělejší řady MAX (ze které momentálně vychází kupříkladu Punisher), napsal ho jeden z nejosobitějších komiksových tvůrců Garth Ennis (Preacher, Punisher) a brilantní kresbou příběh doplnil slavný Glenn Fabry (obálky k Preacherovi, Nikdykde).

A Constantine, o něco starší a o nic moudřejší, se konečně musí postavit tváří v tvář noční můře, kterou vyvolal.V komiksu HELLBLAZER: SYN ČLOVĚKA se slavný scenárista Preachera, Hitmana a Punishera Garth Ennis opět spojil se svým kreslířským parťákem z minisérie Pride & Joy Johnem Higginsem a vytvořili spolu příběh o minulosti, která se vrací jako bumerang, o minulosti, která vám udělá z mozku led, z kůže struhadlo a z duše černou díru.

The Sorrow and the Loss - Martin Dillon

Award-winning journalist and bestselling author Martin Dillon returns to shine a light on the role of women in the Troubles, amplifying voices long silenced by the din of history.Through raw and compelling testimonies from both sides of the community, Dillon explores the overlooked perspectives of women whose lives were impacted by the brutal conflict. Some were directly involved in violence as members of paramilitary organisations. Many witnessed the ruthless murders of family members. All were profoundly and irrevocably affected by the violence and its aftermath.Former IRA volunteers, the wife of notorious UDA Commander Stevie ‘ Top Gun’ McKeag, a survivor of the 1974 Dublin bombings and the daughter of a murdered judge share their stories among many others, their words reverberating with the intensity of their experiences.Dillon also unmasks the shadowy dealings of British intelligence and the impact of collusion on unsolved murders, exposing the layers of deception that have haunted families and communities.The Sorrow and the Loss is an eye-opening exploration of the previously unwritten history of the Troubles.

The Left-Handed Booksellers of London - Garth Nix

A girl's quest to find her father leads her to an extended family of magical fighting booksellers who police the mythical Old World of England when it intrudes on the modern world. From the bestselling master of fantasy, Garth Nix. In a slightly alternate London in 1983, Susan Arkshaw is looking for her father, a man she has never met.Crime boss Frank Thringley might be able to help her, but Susan doesn't get time to ask Frank any questions before he is turned to dust by the prick of a silver hatpin in the hands of the outrageously attractive Merlin. Merlin is a young left-handed bookseller (one of the fighting ones), who with the right-handed booksellers (the intellectual ones), are an extended family of magical beings who police the mythic and legendary Old World when it intrudes on the modern world, in addition to running several bookshops. Susan's search for her father begins with her mother's possibly misremembered or misspelt surnames, a reading room ticket, and a silver cigarette case engraved with something that might be a coat of arms.Merlin has a quest of his own, to find the Old World entity who used ordinary criminals to kill his mother. As he and his sister, the right-handed bookseller Vivien, tread in the path of a botched or covered-up police investigation from years past, they find this quest strangely overlaps with Susan's. Who or what was her father? Susan, Merlin, and Vivien must find out, as the Old World erupts dangerously into the New.Praise for Garth NixGarth Nix sets the standard for Fantasy (Leigh Bardugo)A swashbuckling adventure . . .and the most original magic I've seen in years (Joe Abercrombie)Garth Nix is one of the best world-builders in fantasy.

The Moon and Serpent Bumper Book of Magic - Alan Moore, Steve Moore

Splendid news for enquiring minds, and guaranteed salvation for humanity! Messrs. Steve and Alan Moore, current proprietors of the celebrated Moon & Serpent Grand Egyptian Theatre of Marvels (sorcery by appointment since circa 150 AD) are presently engaged in producing a clear and practical grimoire of the occult sciences that offers endless necromantic fun for all the family. Exquisitely illuminated by a host of adepts including Kevin O''Neill, John Coulthart, Steve Parkhouse, Rick Veitch and Ben Wickey, this marvellous and unprecedented tome promises to provide all that the reader could conceivably need in order to commence a fulfilling new career as a diabolist. Its contents include profusely illustrated instructional essays upon this ancient sect''s theories of magic, notably the key dissertation ''Adventures in Thinking,'' which gives reliable advice as to how entry into the world of magic may be readily achieved. Further to this, a number of ''Rainy Day'' activity pages present lively and entertaining things-to-do once the magical state has been attained, including such popular pastimes as divination, etheric travel and the conjuring of a colourful multitude of sprits, deities, dead people and infernal entities from the pit, all of whom are sure to become your new best friends. Also contained within this extravagant compendium of thaumaturgic lore is a history of magic from the last ice age to the present day, told in a series of easy-to-absorb pictorial biographies of fifty great enchanters and complemented by a variety of picture stories depicting events ranging from the Palaeolithic origins of art, magic, language and consciousness to the rib-tickling comedy exploits of Moon & Serpent founder Alexander the False Prophet (''He''s fun, he''s fake, he''s got a talking snake!''). In addition to these manifold delights, the adventurous reader will also discover a series of helpful travel guides to mind-wrenching alien dimensions that are within comfortable walking distance, as well as profiles of the many quaint local inhabitants that one might bump into at these exotic resorts. A full range of entertainments will be provided, encompassing such diverse novelties and pursuits as a lavishly decorated decadent pulp tale of occult adventure recounted in the serial form. Completing this almost-unimaginable treasure trove is a lengthy thesis revealing the ultimate meaning of both the Moon and the Serpent in a manner that makes transparent the much-obscured secret of magic, happiness, sex, creativity and the known Universe, while at the same time explaining why these lunar and ophidian symbols feature so prominently in the order''s peculiar name. (Manufacturer''s disclaimer: this edition does not, however, reveal why the titular cabal of magicians consider themselves to be either grand or Egyptian. Let the buyer beware.) A colossal and audacious publishing triumph of three hundred and fifty-two pages, beautifully produced in the finest tradition of educational literature for young people, The Moon and Serpent Bumper Book of Magic will transform your lives, your reality, and any spare lead that you happen to have lying around into the purest and most radiant gold.

Suppose a Sentence - Brian Dillon

In Suppose a Sentence, Brian Dillon turns his attention to the oblique and complex pleasures of the sentence. A series of essays prompted by a single sentence – from Shakespeare to Gertrude Stein, John Ruskin to Joan Didion – the book explores style, voice, and language, along with the subjectivity of reading. Both an exercise in practical criticism and a set of experiments or challenges, Suppose a Sentence is a polemical and personal reflection on the art of the sentence in literature. Whether the sentence in question is a rigorous expression of a state of vulnerability, extremity, even madness, or a carefully calibrated arrangement, Dillon examines not only how it works and why but also, in the course of the book, what the sentence once was, what it is today, and what it might become tomorrow.

The Prosperity Paradox - Karen Dillon, Clayton M. Christensen, Efosa Ojomo

Clayton M. Christensen, the author of such business classics as The Innovator’s Dilemma and the New York Times bestseller How Will You Measure Your Life, and co-authors Efosa Ojomo and Karen Dillon reveal why so many investments in economic development fail to generate sustainable prosperity, and offers a groundbreaking solution for true and lasting change.Global poverty is one of the world’s most vexing problems. For decades, we’ve assumed smart, well-intentioned people will eventually be able to change the economic trajectory of poor countries. From education to healthcare, infrastructure to eradicating corruption, too many solutions rely on trial and error. Essentially, the plan is often to identify areas that need help, flood them with resources, and hope to see change over time.But hope is not an effective strategy.Clayton M. Christensen and his co-authors reveal a paradox at the heart of our approach to solving poverty. While noble, our current solutions are not producing consistent results, and in some cases, have exacerbated the problem. At least twenty countries that have received billions of dollars’ worth of aid are poorer now.Applying the rigorous and theory-driven analysis he is known for, Christensen suggests a better way. The right kind of innovation not only builds companies—but also builds countries. The Prosperity Paradox identifies the limits of common economic development models, which tend to be top-down efforts, and offers a new framework for economic growth based on entrepreneurship and market-creating innovation. Christensen, Ojomo, and Dillon use successful examples from America’s own economic development, including Ford, Eastman Kodak, and Singer Sewing Machines, and shows how similar models have worked in other regions such as Japan, South Korea, Nigeria, Rwanda, India, Argentina, and Mexico.The ideas in this book will help companies desperate for real, long-term growth see actual, sustainable progress where they’ve failed before. But The Prosperity Paradox is more than a business book; it is a call to action for anyone who wants a fresh take for making the world a better and more prosperous place.
