Vin zabila Pána vládcu, aby Konečná ríša padla, a priniesla ľuďom slobodu. V dôsledku toho sa však vrátila Hlbina – smrtiaca forma všadeprítomnej hmly – spolu s čoraz hustejšími spádmi popola a ešte ničivejšími zemetraseniami. Zdá sa, že ľudstvo je odsúdené na zánik. Zemevládca Elend Venture, ktorý v závere Prameňa vzostupu unikol smrti a sám sa stal zrodeným z hmly, dúfa, že zachráni svet vďaka stopám, ktoré po sebe zanechal Pán vládca. Vin trápia výčitky svedomia, pretože sa nechala oklamať a uvoľnila z Prameňa mystickú silu známu ako Zhuba. Tá túži zničiť všetko živé a zdá sa nemožné ju zastaviť – je takmer všadeprítomná a dokáže prekrúcať realitu podľa seba. Vin o tom nemôže hovoriť ani s Elendom, aby Zhuba neodhalila ich plány! Začína sa súboj s časom, po ktorom už nič nebude ako predtým.

Poutavá fantasy, v níž se protnou osudy dvou mladých lidí ze zcela odlišných světů. Yumi pochází ze země zahrad, meditace a duchů, Nikaro žije ve světě temnoty, technologie a nočních můr. Teď musí spolupracovat, aby zachránili své světy před zkázou. Devatenáctiletá Yumi byla vybrána už při svém narození jako dívka, která dokáže přivolávat duchy. Dělá to tak, že do vysokých sloupců staví kameny. To duchové obdivují a na oplátku pak pomáhají jejímu lidu. Stejně starý Nikaro je malíř a žije v úplně jiném světě. Po nocích obchází periferii svého města, a když narazí na noční můru, nakreslí na plátno černým inkoustem objekt, který mu nedorostlá noční můra nejvíc připomíná. Tedy bambus. Chrání tím sice lid svého města, ale on sám chce víc. Být členem elitní Snové hlídky. Jednoho dne se světy obou mladých lidí prolnou. Yumi bude Nikara muset naučit stavět kameny a on ji zase kreslit. Protože žádný z jejich světů není, jak se jeví, z temného rubáše obklopujícího Nikarovo město se řítí na lidstvo smrtelné nebezpečí. Záchrana je v rukou zodpovědné a pracovité Yumi a Nikara, který je jejím pravým opakem. Nakladatelská anotace. Kráceno.

According to mythology, humanity once thrived in The Tranquiline Halls, a paradise until the Voidbringers invaded, exiling God and mankind.

Now, remnants of those battles linger in the form of Shardblades, which grant near invincibility in combat.

Nová epická sci-fi séria od kultového autora o dievčati, ktoré sa túži stať pilotkou vo vojne s mimozemskou rasou. Spensa žije vo svete, ktorý už desaťročia čelí útokom mimozemšťanov. Piloti sú pre zvyšok ľudstva hrdinami a Spensa od detstva sníva o tom, že tiež vzlietne ku hviezdam a preukáže svoju odvahu. V ceste jej však stojí minulosť jej otca pilota, ktorého pred rokmi zabili za dezerciu. Spensa je preto pre všetkých len dcérou zbabelca a jej šance na prijatie do leteckej školy sú viac-menej mizivé. Ona je však stále odhodlaná lietať, a keď v dávno zabudnutej jaskyni nájde vrak starobylej vesmírnej lode, uvedomí si, že jej sen by sa mohol splniť – za predpokladu, že dokáže loď opraviť a (čo je možno najdôležitejšie) presvedčiť podivný stroj, aby jej pomohol. Zdá sa totiž, že loď, čo objavila, má dušu – a najmä vlastnú hlavu a pomerne svojráznu osobnosť.

When a researcher returns to Elendel with images of a mythical Lord Ruler artifact, believed to grant wearers his power, Waxillium Ladrian conducts an investigation in the southern city of New Seran, where he makes unsettling discoveries about the true goals of The Set

Stephen Leeds is perfectly sane. It’s his hallucinations who are mad. A genius of unrivaled aptitude, Stephen can learn any new skill, vocation, or art in a matter of hours. However, to contain all of this, his mind creates hallucinatory people—Stephen calls them aspects—to hold and manifest the information. Wherever he goes, he is joined by a team of imaginary experts to give advice, interpretation, and explanation. He uses them to solve problems… for a price. Stephen’s brain is getting a little crowded and the aspects have a tendency of taking on lives of their own. When a company hires him to recover stolen property—a camera that can allegedly take pictures of the past—Stephen finds himself in an adventure crossing oceans and fighting terrorists. What he discovers may upend the foundation of three major world religions—and, perhaps, give him a vital clue into the true nature of his aspects. This collection includes the science fiction novellas Legion and Legion: Skin Deep, published together for the first time, as well as a brand new Stephen Leeds novella, Lies of the Beholder.

Dlhoočakávané pokračovanie postapokalyptického sci-fi Metalurg zo série Pomstitelia, v ktorom sa k moci dostali tí zlí superhrdinovia! Davidovi všetci vraveli, že je to nemožné. Že Epikov nemožno zabiť. No i tak je všemocný, nesmrteľný, neporaziteľný Metalurg mŕtvy. A zabil ho David. Po smrti Metalurga mal byť život jednoduchší, ľahší... taký ako za starých čias. No opak je pravdou a David má hlavu plnú otázok, na ktoré mu nedokáže odpovedať nikto v Newcagu. Odpovede možno nájde na bývalom Manhattane, no vydať sa do iného mesta, v ktorom vládne rovnako krutý Epik, ako bol Metalurg, je viac než nebezpečné. Davida opäť poháňa nenávisť. Pyro totiž musí pykať za svoje činy.

Z pera majstra svetovej fantasy prichádza príbeh o šestnásťročnom Joelovi, ktorého jediným snom je stať sa ritmatikom a byť tak vyvoleným, čo môže vdýchnuť život krieduchom a slobodne sa priúčať magickému umeniu. No Joel je len synom prostého výrobcu kriedy na Armediovej akadémii a študentom ritmatiky môže len ticho závidieť. Až do dňa, kým si ho za asistenta nevyberie profesor Fitch, aby mu pomohol pri vyšetrovaní záhadných únosov študentov. Na mieste činu nachádzajú len neznáme ritmatické čiary a krv unesených. Joel sa spolu so študentkou Melody ocitne na stope nečakaného objavu, ktorý navždy zmení chápanie ritmatiky i fungovanie ich sveta.

Príbehy Brandona Sandersona - slávneho autora Rytierov z Krištálie a série Mistborn - sú ospevované ako „skutočne vtipné" a „vynikajúco napísané" a... a... ...a viete vy čo? To by aj stačilo. Pridlho som vám vysvetľoval, aký úžasný chlapík je Brandon Sanderson, a už mám toho plné zuby. Verte mi - veď som ho naozaj stretol. A ja? Ja dokážem spraviť dojem. Nanešťastie, práve vtedy sa väčšinou začnú problémy. Ale nie tentoraz! Čestné slovo! A fakt to nie je moja chyba, ak som náhodou viedol nejakú tú menšiu jednotku bojovníkov na mokijské hlavné mesto Tuki Tuki a náhodou som tak zachránil mesto aj jeho statočných obyvateľov. A už vôbec nie je moja chyba, ak knihovníci prišli na to, že som tam, a zaútočili všetkými prostriedkami vrátane obrovských robotov a desivých zbraní, ktoré omračovali ľudí a zanechávali za sebou jamy v zemi, a unášali občanov a potom sa tam zjavila moja knihovnícka matka a ako obvykle všetko zničila, zatiaľ čo otec bol príliš zaneprázdnený, aby si to vôbec všimol, hoci to on sa chystal rozpútať na zemi chaos, a moje nadanie kaziť veci sa úplne vymklo spod kontroly a ja som netušil, čo mám robiť!!! (UUF) Takže... ak naozaj chcete čítať ďalej a dozvedieť sa, čo ešte nebola - opakujem, NEBOLA - moja chyba, len smelo do toho. Potom mi však nevyhadzujte na oči, ak nebudete môcť prestať. Váš Alcatraz

Začítajte sa do tretieho pokračovania Alcatrazových dobrodružstiev, v ktorom sa chlapec s veľmi nezvyčajným, kazisvetským talentom konečne dostal do Slobodných kráľovstiev!

Epici však nie sú dobrí superhrdinovia. Nie, sú to geniálni zloduchovia bez kúska súcitu. Nikto sa im neodvažuje postaviť na odpor. Nikto okrem Pomstiteľov záhadnej, krutej a nepolapiteľnej špeciálnej jednotky, ktorá pátra po ich slabostiach, aby ich mohla zabiť. David chce medzi nich. Chce dostať Metalurga, Epika, ktorý je vraj neporaziteľný. Epika, ktorý mu zabil otca. Posledných desať rokov bol ako Pomstitelia, pozoroval a študoval Epikov, plánoval.

This boxed set features Brandon Sanderson's acclaimed Mistborn trilogy, an epic fantasy where a Dark Lord rules over a world of ash and pain. It introduces a new heroine and hope, showcasing Sanderson's masterful world-building, intricate plots, relatable characters, and captivating magic systems.

The Mistborn trilogy has become a firm favourite with fantasy fans the world over. The imagination that Sanderson brought to the series and his skill at marshalling epic storylines and dramatic action, his ability to create vivid characters made him a natural choice to complete Robert Jordan's epic wheel of time sequence. But with Mistborn, his standalone fantasies and his new series, The Stormlight Archive, Sanderson has shown his bountiful talents in his own fiction. Now he returns to the series that made his name with a new story set years after the events of Hero of Ages. In a world recovering only slowly from evil, a world where allomancers wield immense power through their ability to unleash the magic bound up in common metals someone who can burn metals that no-one has burned before can tip the balance... Sanderson has the knack of giving the epic fantasy reader exactly what they want. This ability has thrown him to the forefront of the genre and the dramatic story within The Alloy of Law shows off this skill to its very best.

Je m'appelle Alcatraz Smedry, et je viens de vivre des aventures rocambolesques avec mon grand-père. C'est que, voyez-vous, les Smedry ont le don de se mettre dans des situations impossibles. D'un autre côté, ils sont la cible préférée des infâmes bibliothécaires, et les seuls à s'opposer à eux... Cette fois-ci, c'est ma cousine Australie qui est venue me chercher : mon père ne serait pas mort, et il aurait disparu dans la mystérieuse bibliothèque d'Alexandrie. Il paraît qu'elle est infestée de spectres morts-vivants... Ah, j'oubliais : les infâmes bibliothécaires ont aussi envoyé à nos trousses un mercenaire des Ossements du Scribe !
