the winter warriors david gemmell

Winged demons gather, silent and unseen, above the city of Usa, their talons long and sharp. Their purpose is clear, as is the prophesy: Upon the deaths of the three kings, the demon riders of the Krayakin will become flesh, free to slake their thirst with human blood - and the stench of evil will cover the land. Two of the kings are already dead. For the prophesy to be fulfilled, spreading carnage across the world, the Demon Lord must sacrifice the third king: Queen Axiana's unborn child.When Emperor Skanda disbands his army, the pregnant queen takes flight, pursued by the Lords of the Undead. All hope lies with three ancient heroes, though discarded by the emperor, they are still Drenai soldiers: Bison the giant, Kebra the bowman, and the great swordsman Nogusta - the Demon Lord's greatest foe. But will these warriors - once the best in the land - be enough to stem the tide of gruesome horror that threatens to envelop the world?

He is a man of many names. Some call him the Golden One; others, the Lord of the Silver Bow. To the Dardanians, he is Prince Aeneas. But to his friends, he is Helikaon. Strong, fast, quick of mind, he is a bold warrior, hated by his enemies, feared even by his Trojan allies. For there is a darkness at the heart of the Golden One, a savagery that, once awakened, can be appeased only with blood.Argurios the Mykene is a peerless fighter, a man of unbending principles and unbreakable will. Like all of the Mykene warriors, he lives to conquer and to kill. Dispatched by King Agamemnon to scout the defenses of the golden city of Troy, he is Helikaon's sworn enemy.Andromache is a priestess of Thera betrothed against her will to Hektor, prince of Troy. Scornful of tradition, skilled in the arts of war, and passionate in the ways of her order, Andromache vows to love whom she pleases and to live as she desires.Now fate is about to thrust these three together; and, from the sparks of passionate love and hate, ignite a fire that will engulf the world.Readers who know the works of David Gemmell expect nothing less than excellence from this author, whose taut prose, driving plots, and full-bodied characters have won him legions of fans the world over. Now, with this first masterly volume in an epic reimagining of the Trojan War, Gemmell has written an ageless drama of brave deeds and fierce battles, of honor and treachery, of love won and lost.

Mluvčím je Rheg, toulavý vlk, žijící mimo zákon, známý jako bastard Rheg - i když tohle mu nikdo do obličeje neřekne. Zrozený ze zrady, jeho jméno je nadávkou, a vyrostl mezi bojovnými Riganty. Ti si cení jeho umění bojovat, ale bojí se násilí v jeho srdci.V sedmnácti letech se samozvaný vyhnanec Rheg vydá do krysího hnízda, jež podle některých představuje vše, co je věčné a svaté: do Velkého města Kamene. Tady, kde si gladiátoři vydělávají na chléb zabíjením, kde učení a kultura zakrývají vnitřní zkázu a zkaženost, vytvořili rudí kněží hrůzovládu; zplodili dost nenávisti a zloby, aby vydržela několik století. A přesto tu trpící Stromový kult, vedený záhadnou Dámou se závojem, hlásá svou filozofii lásky a harmonie.Bastard Rheg nyní touží po pomstě a připravuje se k bitvě, která zničí mýtus Kamene. Dny krve se blíží a tento syn neporaženého krále-válečníka - Connavara, slavného Přízraku - musí bojovat, aby zachránil svůj svět.Půlnoční sokol je pokračováním podmanivého příběhu Rigantů, který začal Mečem v bouři, a potvrzuje, že David Gemmell je jedním z nejpůsobivějších současných autorů hrdinské fantasy.

Audiokniha: Druss, vládce sekery, se stal námětem k pověstem — příběhy o mocném válečníkovi se vyprávěly po celé zemi. Ale jak příběhy s vyprávěním rostly, Druss sám stárnul. Obrátil se zády ke slávě a stáhl se do svého doupěte vysoko v horách. Prošedivělý starý válečník zde žije ve společnosti sněžných levhartů a čeká na dávného nepřítele – smrt. Na pochod se vydala barbarská horda. Vše, co stojí mezi ní a lidem Drenaje, je mocná pevnost se šesti hradbami, která nebyla nikdy dobyta. Ale teď ji drží slabí, prodejní a demoralizovaní vojáci. Velká citadela je odsouzena k zániku. Druss souhlasí, že vyjde z ústraní, aby tento poslední, beznadějný zápas vedl. Ztracené případy pro něj nic neznamenají — mnohokrát bojoval v bitvách prohlašovaných předem za prohrané… Legenda, vydaná v roce 1984, je prvním a zároveň nejznámějším fantasy románem britského spisovatele Davida Gemmella. Jedná se o první titul později známé Drenajské ságy. Gemmell začal dílo tvořit v roce 1976, kdy procházel testy na podezření na rakovinu. Dobyvatelé a odolávající pevnost jsou tak metaforou o boji s touto nemocí. Poté, co testy rakovinu neodhalily, Gemmell koncept odložil a vrátil se k němu až po doporučení svého přítele v roce 1980. Knihu nazvanou LEGENDA mu v roce 1982 schválilo nakladatelství Century Hutchinson, načež došlo k jejímu prvnímu vydání v roce 1984.

In 1735, five Maroon boys are ready to be initiated as warriors. They have prepared long and hard for this day, and must now pass a sequence of tests. How the boys approach this, the most important day of their lives, says much about how they will respond to the challenges ahead. When they encounter a Redcoat troop in the forest near their village, the defence of the village and surrounding Maroon communities will depend on these boys, their training, courage, and intelligence. On this occasion, their community depends on them for its survival, but their initiation as warriors also teaches them lifelong lessons about loyalty, responsibility, trustworthiness and friendship.

These "higher" energy fields are a carrier wave of immense life energy. An essential primer on the late Dr. David R. Hawkins''s teachings on human consciousness and their associated energy fields, The Map of Consciousness Explained offers an introduction and deeper understanding of the Map, with visual charts and practical applications to help you heal, recover, and evolve to higher levels of consciousness and energy.

Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D.Whether you''re a scholar, a personal growth enthusiast, or simply on a path of self-discovery, this book will help you live with more awareness and lead a more conscious and fulfilling life.

První kniha duologie Lev Makedonský. Stará věštkyně Tamis procházela stále dokola možné budoucnosti. V každé z nich ohrožovaly Řecko temné síly, strašlivé zlo hodlalo znovu vstoupit do světa. Budoucnost chovala pouze jedinou naději: spartského míšence, chlapce Parmenióna. Tamis se proto rozhodla zajistit, aby se z Parmenióna stal nejnebezpečnější válečník na světě - bez ohledu na to, co to bude stát. Parmenión dospíval ve Spartě, kde ho každý den zastrašovali a pronásledovali. Přitom netušil, jak jeho osud ovlivňují magie a mystérie. Jeho vojenský génius mu ve Spartě vysloužil titul stratégos. Vítězství vybojované pro město Théby z něj udělalo hrdinu. A osud ho nakonec zavedl do služeb Filippa Makedonského. Jak Tamis předpověděla, Parmeniónův osud byl spojen s Temným bohem, s Filippem a s dosud nenarozeným Alexandrem. Budoucnost je všechny dostihla až příliš brzy. Parmenión byl připraven zlo porazit - nebo otevřít bránu, kterou by mohl Temný bůh znovu vstoupit do světa
