Based on the troubadour culture that rose in Provence during the High Middle Ages, this panoramic, absorbing novel beautifully creates an alternate version of the medieval world. The matriarchal, cultured land of Arbonne is rent by a feud between its two most powerful dukes, the noble troubador Bertran de Talair and Urte de Miraval, over long-dead Aelis, lover of one, wife of the other and once heir to the country's throne. To the north lies militaristic Gorhaut, whose inhabitants worship the militant god Corannos and are ruled by corrupt, womanizing King Ademar. His chief advisor, the high priest of Corannos, is determined to eradicate the worship of a female deity, whose followers live to the south. Into this cauldron of brewing disaster comes the mysterious Gorhaut mercenary Blaise, who takes service with Bertran and averts an attempt on his life. The revelation of Blaise's lineage and a claim for sanctuary by his sister-in-law sets the stage for a brutal clash between the two cultures. Intertwined is the tale of a young woman troubadour whose role suggests the sweep of the drama to come.

A number-one New York Times bestseller upon its release, this work is the heart of J.R.R. Tolkien's imaginative writing, with origins predating THE HOBBIT. Tolkien regarded it as his most significant achievement, and although published posthumously, it lays the groundwork for his other writings. It narrates the creation of the world and the events of the First Age, providing a backdrop for characters in THE LORD OF THE RINGS, such as Elrond and Galadriel, who participated in these ancient events. Central to the tale are the three Silmarils, jewels crafted by the gifted Elf Feanor, which contained the Light of the Two Trees of Valinor before their destruction by Morgoth, the first Dark Lord. Following this, the pure Light of Valinor was preserved only in the Silmarils, which Morgoth seized and placed in his crown, hidden within the fortress of Angband in northern Middle-earth. The narrative explores Feanor's rebellion against the gods, his kin's exile from Valinor, their return to Middle-earth, and their desperate, heroic struggle against the great Enemy. This second edition includes a letter from Tolkien detailing his intentions for the book, offering insight into his vision of the earlier Ages of Middle-earth.

Paša Ivanov, možda i najbogatiji od svih novih ruskih milijardera, ima sve što ljudska mašta može poželjeti. Zato njegov skok u smrt s desetog kata velebne moskovske palače nema smisla. No viši policijski istražitelj Arkadij Renko neće naći nijedan trag koji bi upućivao na ubojstvo – osim tajanstvene hrpe soli u ormaru milijarderove spavaće sobe. Uporno slijedeći trag, Arkadij će nanjušiti više nego što bi itko mogao očekivati i ubrzo će biti maknut s glavnog toka istrage. Pretpostavljeni tužitelj Zurin poslat će ga na put u Zonu, zabranjeno područje oko Černobila, da istraži smrt jednog od Ivanovljevih suradnika, nadajući se da će tako ukloniti smetnju. No Renko će uz konstantno kvrckanje Geigerova brojača u pustoši Zone uz beskućnike, stare seljane, znanstvenike i miliciju pronaći dokaze za hipotezu od koje se ledi krv u žilama. Peti nastavak serijala o Arkadiju Renku Vukovi jedu pse iz pera Martina Cruza Smitha (dolazi u slijedu nakon Havanskog zaljeva), u prijevodu Gordane Mijatović i uz ilustraciju Igora Kordeja pokazat će da melankolični, beskompromisni, povučeni Renko nije izgubio ništa od svojega šarma kojim je opsjeo čitatelje u doba hladnog rata, još tamo daleke 1981. kada je objavljen prvi roman u seriji, Park Gorkoga.
