Co když ostatní zjistí, že vlastně nevím, co dělám? Není to jen náhoda, že mě na tohle místo přijali? Byl to opravdu můj úspěch, nebo jen štěstí? Vyhoření, tvůrčí blok, syndrom podvodníka – naši vnitřní strašáci, kteří nás trápí čím dál víc. Alfonso Casas navazuje na svůj úspěšný komiksový bestiář Bludy v hlavě a vydává se do nitra vyhořelého hrdiny, který se za doprovodu bluda Crise pouští na cestu, aby opět našel sám sebe. Vizuálně nápaditý komiks ukazuje, že ty největší krize se často odehrávají v hlavě. A právě to, co na první pohled vypadá jako konec, může být impulz k něčemu novému. Možná totiž nejsi v bezvýchodné krizi. Možná jen začínáš znovu.

If anyone ever said being an adult was easy, they hadn't been one long enough. Diana Casillas can admit it: she doesn't know what the hell she's doing half the time. How she's made it through the last two years of her life without killing anyone is nothing short of a miracle. Being a grown-up wasn't supposed to be so hard. With a new house, two little boys she inherited the most painful possible way, a giant dog, a job she usually loves, more than enough family, and friends, she has almost everything she could ever ask for. Except for a boyfriend. Or a husband. But who needs either one of those?

Druhé dobrodružství Sebastiána Balbueny. Do kmene se zabodne desítka černých šípů. Jsem tu s tátou, sourozenci a našimi sousedkami, krčíme se za stromem a čekáme, až se naskytne příležitost uprchnout do bezpečí. Jak jsem se ale já, obyčejný jedenáctiletý kluk, ocitl tváří v tvář tlupě vraždících žoldáků? Abych mohl odpovědět, musím vám nejdřív něco povědět o hradě Barlovento, Prokletém hvozdu, královském rytířském řádu a Spících dracích. Ne, nezbláznil jsem se. Jmenuju se Sebastián a normálně bydlím v Moratalazu, což je čtvrť v Madridu, a tam nemáme ani krvelačné lučištníky, ani hrady nebo prokleté hvozdy, a už vůbec ne draky. Jenže teď jsem hodně daleko od domova. Přesněji řečeno ve středověku. Ztraceni v čase je nová série autorů oblíbených Fotbaláků.

Fotbaláci mají vlastní komiks? No jasně! Když bylo Robertu Santiagovi třináct let, vyhrál s týmem ze své školy San Augustín fotbalový turnaj. Dnes je z něj známý spisovatel, ovšem na svou dávnou výhru a své tehdejší kamarády stále vzpomíná. Právě proto napsal Fotbaláky. Úspěšná série má už dvaadvacet dílů a nově k nim přibyl také komiks. První díl komiksových Fotbaláků se odehrává v době před vznikem školního týmu Soto Alto, tedy ještě předtím, než jeho členové uzavřeli tajnou dohodu o tom, že je nikdo a nic nerozdělí.

Before he was "Big Texas," he was "Zac the Snack Pack."Bianca Brannen knows time-mostly-heals all wounds. Including those your once loved ones might have unintentionally given you. (Those just take longer.)She thinks she's ready when a call has her walking back into her old friend's life. Or at least as prepared as possible to see the starting quarterback in the National Football Organization. Before the lights, the fans, and the millions, he'd been a skinny kid with a heart of gold. Waltzing out of Zac Travis's life should be easy. Just as easy as he walked out of hers.

Arno Schipper and Ilse Hahlbrock grow up, unaware of each other, in different parts of Prussia during World War II, and take flight with their families when the region ceases to exist as a part of Germany at the end of the war.

“Trust me, I’ve wanted to punch you in the face a time or five.” When the man you worshipped as a kid becomes your coach, it’s supposed to be the greatest thing in the world. Keywords: supposed to. It didn’t take a week for twenty- seven-year-old Sal Casillas to wonder what she’d seen in the international soccer icon—why she’d ever had his posters on her wall, or ever envisioned marrying him and having super-playing soccer babies. Sal had long ago gotten over the worst non-break-up in the history of imaginary relationships with a man that hadn’t known she’d existed. So she isn’t prepared for this version of Reiner Kulti who shows up to her team’s season: a quiet, reclusive shadow of the explosive, passionate man he’d once been. Nothing could have prepared her for the man she got to know. Or the murderous urges he brought out in her. This was going to be the longest season of her life.

When she crosses a ruined wall at just the right moment, Olivia finds herself in a place that is Gallant—but not. The manor is crumbling, the ghouls are solid, and a mysterious figure rules over all. Now Olivia sees what has unraveled generations of her family, and where her father may have come from.Olivia has always wanted to belong somewhere, but will she take her place as a Prior, protecting our world against the Master of the House? Or will she take her place beside him?

Ronke, Simi and Boo are inseparable mixed-race friends living in London. They have the gift of two cultures, Nigerian and English, though not all of them choose to see it that way. Everyday racism has never held them back, but now in their thirties, they question their future. Ronke wants a husband (he must be Nigerian); Boo enjoys (correction: endures) stay-at-home motherhood; while Simi, full of fashion career dreams, rolls her eyes as her boss refers to her urban vibe yet again. When Isobel, a lethally glamorous friend from their past arrives in town, she is determined to fix their futures for them. Cracks in their friendship begin to appear, and it is soon obvious Isobel is not sorting but wrecking. When she is driven to a terrible act, the women are forced to reckon with a crime in their past that may just have repeated itself. A darkly comic and bitingly subversive take on love, race and family, Wahala will have you laughing, crying and gasping in horror. Boldly political about class, colorism and clothes, here is a truly inclusive tale that will speak to anyone who has ever cherished friendship, in all its forms.

From the author of the 2021 YA Book Prize winning Loveless. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, right? CHARLIE: "I have been going out with Nick Nelson for two years. He likes rugby, Formula 1, dogs, the Marvel universe, the sound felt-tips make on paper, rain and drawing on shoes. He also likes me." NICK: "Things me and Charlie Spring do together include: Watch films. Sit in the same room on different laptops. Text each other from different rooms. Make out. Make food. Make drinks. Get drunk. Talk. Argue. Laugh. Maybe we're kind of boring. But that's fine with us." Everyone knows that Nick and Charlie are the perfect couple - that they're inseparable. But now Nick is leaving for university, and Charlie will be left behind at Sixth Form.

From a beguiling voice in Mexican fiction comes an astonishing novel--her first to be translated into English--about a mysterious child with the power to change a family's history in a country on the verge of revolution. From the day that old Nana Reja found a baby abandoned under a bridge, the life of a small Mexican town forever changed. Disfigured and covered in a blanket of bees, little Simonopio is for some locals the stuff of superstition, a child kissed by the devil. But he is welcomed by landowners Francisco and Beatriz Morales, who adopt him and care for him as if he were their own. As he grows up, Simonopio becomes a cause for wonder to the Morales family, because when the uncannily gifted child closes his eyes, he can see what no one else can--visions of all that's yet to come, both beautiful and dangerous. Followed by his protective swarm of bees and living to deliver his adoptive family from threats--both human and those of nature--Simonopio's purpose in Linares will, in time, be divined. Set against the backdrop of the Mexican Revolution and the devastating influenza of 1918, The Murmur of Bees captures both the fate of a country in flux and the destiny of one family that has put their love, faith, and future in the unbelievable.

Před lety pracovala jako vyhledávaná obhájkyně pro nejlepší firmy ve městě. Teď už nemá koho obhajovat a své city otupuje popíjením whisky. Jednoho rána ji však z kocoviny probudí nečekaný telefonát — volá její bratr Alejandro, se kterým nepromluvila už pět let. Je obviněný z vraždy a kromě své sestry nemůže nikomu věřit.

Turn the book one way and read Lyra's story; turn the book over and upside down and read Gemma's story ... Lyra's story begins in the Haven Institute, a building tucked away on a private island off the coast of Florida that from a distance looks serene and even beautiful. But up close the locked doors, military guards, and biohazard suits tell a different story. In truth, Haven is a clandestine research facility where thousands of replicas, or human models, are born, raised, and observed. When a surprise attack is launched on Haven, two of its young experimental subjects--Lyra, or 24, and the boy known only as 72--manage to escape. Gemma has been in and out of hospitals for as long as she can remember. A lonely teen, her life is circumscribed by home, school, and her best friend, April. But after she is nearly abducted by a stranger claiming to know her, Gemma starts to investigate her family's past and discovers her father's mysterious connection to the secretive Haven research facility. Hungry for answers, she travels to Florida, only to stumble upon two replicas and a completely new set of questions"--Publisher's website
