From SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING author Bettany Hughes'A wondrous wonderful achievement' Stephen Fry 'Fascinating' Observer 'Thrilling' GuardianTheir names still echo down the ages: The Great Pyramid at Giza. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon. The Temple of Artemis. The statue of Zeus at Olympia. The mausoleum of Halikarnassos. The Colossus at Rhodes. The Lighthouse of Alexandria. The Seven Wonders of the World were staggeringly audacious impositions on our planet. They were also brilliant adventures of the mind, test cases for the reaches of human imagination. Now only the great pyramid remains fully standing, yet the scale and majesty of these seven wonders still enthral us today. In a thrilling, colourful narrative enriched with the latest archaeological discoveries, bestselling historian Bettany Hughes walks through the landscapes of both ancient and modern time. This is a journey whose purpose is to ask why we wonder, why we create, why we choose to remember the wonder of others. She explores traces of the Wonders themselves, and the traces they have left in history. A magisterial work of historical storytelling, The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World reinforces the exciting and nourishing notion that humans can make the impossible happen. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

She wants to revel in her happiness but first they must free his brother and find hers. It's a dangerous mission and one with far-reaching consequences neither dreamed of. Because Poppy is the Chosen, the Blessed. The true ruler of Atlantia. She carries the blood of the King of Gods within her. By right the crown and the kingdom are hers.The enemy and the warrior...Poppy has only ever wanted to control her own life, not the lives of others, but now she must choose to either forsake her birthright or seize the gilded crown and become the Queen of Flesh and Fire. But as the kingdoms' dark sins and blood-drenched secrets finally unravel, a long-forgotten power rises to pose a genuine threat. And they will stop at nothing to ensure that the crown never sits upon Poppy's head.A lover and heartmate...But the greatest threat to them and to Atlantia is what awaits in the far west, where the Queen of Blood and Ash has her own plans, ones she has waited hundreds of years to carry out.

And as shocking secrets and the harshest betrayals come to light, and enemies emerge to threaten everything Poppy and Casteel have fought for, they will discover just how far they are willing to go for their people-and each other.And now she will become Queen...

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout comes a new novel in her Blood and Ash series...Is Love Stronger Than Vengeance?A Betrayal... Everything Poppy has ever believed in is a lie, including the man she was falling in love with. Thrust among those who see her as a symbol of a monstrous kingdom, she barely knows who she is without the veil of the Maiden. But what she does know is that nothing is as dangerous to her as him. The Dark One. The Prince of Atlantia. He wants her to fight him, and that's one order she's more than happy to obey. He may have taken her, but he will never have her.A Choice....Casteel Da'Neer is known by many names and many faces. His lies are as seductive as his touch. His truths as sensual as his bite. Poppy knows better than to trust him. He needs her alive, healthy, and whole to achieve his goals. But he's the only way for her to get what she wants-to find her brother Ian and see for herself if he has become a soulless Ascended. Working with Casteel instead of against him presents its own risks. He still tempts her with every breath, offering up all she's ever wanted. Casteel has plans for her. Ones that could expose her to unimaginable pleasure and unfathomable pain. Plans that will force her to look beyond everything she thought she knew about herself-about him. Plans that could bind their lives together in unexpected ways that neither kingdom is prepared for. And she's far too reckless, too hungry, to resist the temptation.A Secret...But unrest has grown in Atlantia as they await the return of their Prince. Whispers of war have become stronger, and Poppy is at the very heart of it all. The King wants to use her to send a message. The Descenters want her dead. The wolven are growing more unpredictable. And as her abilities to feel pain and emotion begin to grow and strengthen, the Atlantians start to fear her. Dark secrets are at play, ones steeped in the blood-drenched sins of two kingdoms that would do anything to keep the truth hidden. But when the earth begins to shake, and the skies start to bleed, it may already be too late. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

The Reinvention of Humanity tells the story of a small circle of renegade scientist-explorers who changed something profound: what it means to be normal. In the early twentieth century, these pioneering anthropologists, most of them women, made intrepid journeys that overturned our assumptions about race, sexuality, gender and the nature of human diversity. From the Arctic to the South Pacific, from Haiti to Japan, they immersed themselves in distant or isolated communities, where they observed and documented radically different approaches to love and child-rearing, family structure and the relationship between women and men. With this evidence they were able to challenge the era's scientific consensus - and deep-rooted Western belief - that intelligence, ability and character are determined by a person's race or sex, and show that the roles people play in society are shaped in fact according to the immense variety of human cultures. Theirs were boundary-breaking lives, filled with scandal, romance, rivalry and tragedy. Those of Margaret Mead and her essential partner Ruth Benedict resulted in fame and notoriety. Those of Native American activist Ella Deloria and the African-American writer and ethnographer Zora Neale Hurston ended in poverty and obscurity; here their achievements are brought fully into the light for the first time. All were outsiders, including the controversial founder of their field, the wild-haired professor, German immigrant and revolutionary thinker, Franz Boas. The Reinvention of Humanity takes us on their globe-spanning adventures and shows how, together, these courageous and unconventional people created the moral universe we inhabit today.

Prečo sa Billy, úspešný lekár, nikdy neoženil a jeho život je postavený na tajomstvách a kompromisoch? Prečo Scott, ktorý po prehúlenej mladosti konečne vytriezvel a ocitol sa v ubíjajúcej práci a poľutovaniahodnom manželstve nevidí, že jeho syn túži po jeho uznaní rovnako ako on po uznaní svojich rodičov? Aj keď sa Gwen – bystrá a kompetentná, často uzatvára do seba, ona je jediná, ktorá sa konečne ako mladá žena vzoprie svojmu osudu. Keď sa zaľúbi, v jej rodine spustí táto nečakaná situácia rovnako silné emócie ako kedysi jej ochorenie…. Diagnóza skúma silu rodinných mytológií – sebaklamov, popierania a neodvratných právd, ktoré navždy spájajú otcov, matky a súrodencov. Jennifer Haigh vykreslila v knihe nádej, obavy a tajomstvá jednej rodiny, ktorým sa dá čeliť iba pomocou lásky a odpustenia. (patro.cz)

Manželská dvojice, Nate a Helen, jsou učiteli na prestižní střední škole v Connecticutu. Jednoho dne se rozhodnou opustit pohodlí a bezpečí předvídatelného městského života a přestěhovat se na venkov. Chtějí se tak přiblížit skutečnému životu a vše si vybudovat vlastníma rukama. Tady, na pozemku v divoké přírodě, začnou sami dva stavět dům svých snů. Díky ne příliš přátelskému postoji místních lidí a několika záhadným událostem však brzy zjistí, že jejich pozemek je spojen s temnou minulostí a že legenda o zdejším duchovi může mít reálný základ. Postupně vyvstává řada otázek – kdo a proč nechal na prahu balíček s podivným obsahem, kam zmizela jejich sousedka a koho má Helen zachránit – na které se snaží najít odpovědi. Je svět, který vidíme, jediným světem, nebo přírodní síly ukrývají víc, než jsme schopni poznat našimi běžnými smysly? Napětí se stupňuje, hranice mezi světy mizí. Může být duch pachatelem vraždy? Rozuzlení tohoto napínavého mysteriózního románu je vskutku překvapivé. (patro.cz)

'Here, Ariadne takes centre stage in a lyrical, insightful re-telling that explores her motivations and emotions and the grievances caused by grumpy, cold-hearted gods and warm-blooded men, who are equally vengeful and self-interested - Daily Mail 'The story is well known, of course, but Saint tells it skilfully and, like Miller and Haynes, gives a twist to familiar myth by offering the perspective of women characters' - The Sunday Times As Princesses of Crete and daughters of the fearsome King Minos, Ariadne and her sister Phaedra grow up hearing the hoofbeats and bellows of the Minotaur echo from the Labyrinth beneath the palace.

But helping Theseus kill the monster means betraying her family and country, and Ariadne knows only too well that in a world ruled by mercurial gods - drawing their attention can cost you everything. In a world where women are nothing more than the pawns of powerful men, will Ariadne's decision to betray Crete for Theseus ensure her happy ending? Or will she find herself sacrificed for her lover's ambition?
