      Tieňotrh je miestom stretnutí férov, vlkolakov, bosorákov aj upírov. Dolnosveťania na ňom kupujú a predávajú čarodejné predmety, uzatvárajú nekalé obchody a šeptom si vymieňajú tajomstvá, ktoré majú zostať ukryté pred nefilmi. Už dvesto rokov však na Tieňotrhy chodieva návštevník z Mĺkveho mesta, zo samotného srdca tieňoloveckého sveta. Ako Mĺkvy brat musí brat Zachariáš dodržiavať zákony a pravidlá nefilov. V minulosti však bol Tieňolovcom menom Jem Carstairs a jeho milovanou bola a navždy zostane Tessa Grayová. Vydajte sa na Tieňotrh spolu s bratom Zachariášom a v prostredí nekalých obchodov a veľkolepých osláv odhaľte prvý vzťah Anny Lightwoodovej, veľký hriech Matthewa Fairchilda a život Tessy Grayovej počas svetovej vojny. Valentine Morgenstern si tam kúpi dušu a duša mladého Jacea Waylanda nájde bezpečný prístav. Na Tieňotrhu sa ukrýva aj stratený dedič a milovaný duch, a keď tam predáte svoje srdce, už vás nezachráni nikto. Dokonca ani brat Zachariáš...

      Neopakovateľná príležitosť pre fanúšikov sérií Nástroje smrteľníkov a Pekelné stroje nazrieť do tajomného života Magnusa Banea. V tejto jedinečnej knihe vám prinášame jedenásť príbehov, ktoré poodhaľujú rúško tajomstva, čo zahmlieva štyristoročný život obľúbeného veľkobosoráka Brooklynu. Magnus Bane to nemá v živote ľahké, pretože pre bosoráka sú na prvom mieste vždy problémy iných. Jeho život je dlhý, rad jeho mileniek a milencov ešte dlhší. No Magnus má dar, ako byť v pravý čas na správnom - alebo aj nesprávnom - mieste. Francúzska revolúcia, prohibícia v Amerike alebo prvá veľká bitka medzi Valentinom a Tieňolovcami je len zlomok z toho, čo Magnus prežil na vlastnej koži. Za štyristo rokov sa toho nazbieralo toľko, že mu to nikto nikdy neuverí. A týchto jedenásť poviedok... Magnus pravdepodobne preklína toho, kto ich vypustil do sveta.

    • Kami Glass loves someone she’s never met... a boy she’s talked to in her head ever since she was born. She wasn’t silent about her imaginary friend during her childhood, and is thus a bit of an outsider in her sleepy English town of Sorry-in-the-Vale. Still, Kami hasn’t suffered too much from not fitting in. She has a best friend, runs the school newspaper, and is only occasionally caught talking to herself. Her life is in order, just the way she likes it, despite the voice in her head.But all that changes when the Lynburns return.The Lynburn family has owned the spectacular and sinister manor that overlooks Sorry-in-the-Vale for centuries. The mysterious twin sisters who abandoned their ancestral home a generation ago are back, along with their teenage sons, Jared and Ash, one of whom is eerily familiar to Kami. Kami is not one to shy away from the unknown—in fact, she’s determined to find answers for all the questions Sorry-in-the-Vale is suddenly posing. Who is responsible for the bloody deeds in the depths of the woods? What is her own mother hiding? And now that her imaginary friend has become a real boy, does she still love him? Does she hate him? Can she trust him?

      "The Borderlands aren't like anywhere else. Don't try to smuggle a phone or any other piece of technology over the wall that marks the Border -- unless you enjoy a fireworks display in your backpack. (Ballpoint pens are okay.) There are elves, harpies, and -- best of all as far as Elliot is concerned -- mermaids. Elliot is thirteen years old. He's smart and just a tiny bit obnoxious. Sometimes more than a tiny bit. When his class goes on a field trip and he can see a wall that no one else can see, he is given the chance to go to school in the Borderlands. It turns out that on the other side of the wall, classes involve a lot more weaponry and fitness training and fewer mermaids than he expected. On the other hand, there's Serene-Heart-in-the-Chaos-of-Battle, an elven warrior who is more beautiful than anyone Elliot has ever seen, and then there's her human friend Luke: sunny, blond, and annoyingly likeable. There are lots of interesting books. There's even the chance Elliot might be able to change the world. In Other Lands is the exhilarating book about surviving four years in the most unusual of schools, about friendship, falling in love, diplomacy, and finding your own place in the world -- even if it means giving up your phone."-- Provided by publisher
