Bylo jich sedm. Sedm Věčných, kteří ovládali sedm aspektů lidského života. Už jich je jen šest. Jeden z božské rodiny zmizel a jeho obraz v galerii zeje už třista let prázdnotou. Nikomu to nevadí, nikdo se ho nesnaží hledat. Jenže to se má změnit. Nejmladší z Věčných, šílená sestra Delírium, se rozhodne vydat po stopách dávno ztraceného bratra. A jediný, kdo je ochotný jí doprovodit, je melancholicky cynický bratr Sandman, který celý výlet bere jen jako únik před depresí z rozpadlého vztahu. Netuší, že během cesty začnou umírat lidé. Netuší, že cesta bude nebezpečnější, než si myslel. Netuší, že najde mnohem víc, než čekal. Že cestou objeví něco, co pro něj bude mít nedozírné následky. Krátké životy je nejepičtější příběh z celé Sandmanovské série. Je to příběh o ztrátě, o pracném hledání, o neúprosnosti změny a o důležitosti paměti a zapomínání.

Jeho autora, Neila Gaimana asi není třeba představovat - vrcholný tvůrce žánru "městské fantasy" už v románech Nikdykde, Hvězdný prach a Američtí bohové předvedl, jak dokáže mixovat horor s poetikou, sadistickou krutost s něhou a zběsilou fantazii s všední realitou. A teď přichází jeho vrcholné dílo - Sandman. S jeho pomocí vstoupíte do Říše snů, odhalíte půvab bratrovraždy, navštívíte Peklo i Arkhamský blázinec a zúčastníte se masakru v jednom nonstopu. Poznáte démony, mágy, okultisty i šílence, pětsetleté žebračky a Smrt se slabostí pro Mary Poppinsovou.Říct o téhle knize, že je kult, je asi tak stejně výstižné, jako prohlásit o Albertu Einsteinovi, že byl docela dobrej na fyziku.

It began for our narrator forty years ago when the family lodger stole their car and committed suicide in it, stirring up ancient powers best left undisturbed. Dark creatures from beyond the world are on the loose, and it will take everything our narrator has just to stay alive: there is primal horror here, and menace unleashed - within his family and from the forces that have gathered to destroy it. His only defense is three women, on a farm at the end of the lane. The youngest of them claims that her duckpond is ocean. The oldest can remember the Big Bang. THE OCEAN AT THE END OF THE LANE is a fable that reshapes modern fantasy: moving, terrifying and elegiac - as pure as a dream, as delicate as a butterfly's wing, as dangerous as a knife in the dark.

Atlantis is rising. Frogs are falling.Tempers are flaring, and everything appears to be going to Divine Plan. Except that a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon are not particularly looking forward to the coming Rapture. They've lived amongst Humanity for millennia, and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle.So if Crowley and Aziraphale are going to stop it from happening, they've got to find and kill the AntiChrist (which is a shame, really, as he's a nice kid). There's just one glitch: someone seems to have misplaced him. This edition features a new revised text, approved by Neil Gaiman and the Pratchett Estate, which clears up many typos and errors from previous editions.It also features twelve full colour illustrations from Paul Kidby - Terry Pratchett's artist of choice - and further pencil drawings.

Centuries before A Game of Thrones, an even greater game began, one that set the skies alight with dragon flame and saw the Seven Kingdoms turned to ash. The thrilling history of the Targaryens comes to life in this masterly work by the author of A Song of Ice and Fire, the inspiration for HBO’s Game of Thrones.With all the fire and fury fans have come to expect from internationally bestselling author George R.R. Martin, this is the first volume of the definitive two-part history of the Targaryens in Westeros. Centuries before the events of A Game of Thrones, House Targaryen – the only family of dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria – took up residence on Dragonstone.Fire and Blood begins their tale with the legendary Aegon the Conqueror, creator of the Iron Throne, and goes on to recount the generations of Targaryens who fought to hold that iconic seat, all the way up to the civil war that nearly tore their dynasty apart. What really happened during the Dance of the Dragons? Why was it so deadly to visit Valyria after the Doom? What were Maegor the Cruel’s worst crimes? What was it like in Westeros when dragons ruled the skies? These are but a few of the questions answered in this essential chronicle, as related by a learned maester of the Citadel, and featuring more than eighty all-new black-and-white illustrations by artist Doug Wheatley. With all the scope and grandeur of Gibbon’s The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Fire and Blood is the ultimate game of thrones, giving readers a whole new appreciation for the dynamic, often bloody, and always fascinating history of Westeros.
