Story
S Oldřichem z Chlumu, panošem Otou a Divišem se ocitneme na Bezdězu a v jeho okolí. Neprostupné lesy a skalní strže, které se táhnou od Housky ke Kokořínu, skrývají mnohá tajemství. Pohanství jako by z této pochmurné krajiny nikdy neodešlo, je-li sem přidělen kněz, pak pouze za trest. Jednoho dne se z lesa nevrátí zeman Smil z Tubože. Zdá se, že jde o banální záležitost, nikdo o tom nechce mluvit. Kdyby neměl povinnosti zemana, na Bezdězu by se to snad ani nedozvěděli. Nepochopitelné události se však začnou vršit.

Story
Mladý rytíř Jiří Adam z Dobronína byl právě jmenován písařem Královské komory a jeho úkolem je dohlížet na pořádek v Údolí svatého Jáchyma, kde se podařilo nalézt stříbro. Do živelně vznikající osady se stahují horníci z druhé strany hor. Vidina rychlého zbohatnutí však přitahuje i mnohé, kteří nepřichází jen za čestnou obživou. Krátce po příjezdu Jiřího Adama dojde k vraždě šenkýře Margolda. Zdá se, že jde o banální zločin, jenže svědci hovoří o dvou démonech. Vyjde najevo, že obdobná vražda se stala před dvěma dny, kdy zemřel řeznický mistr.

Story
Zábavnou formou sledujeme proměnu společenského chování v ohledu na intimní činnosti (např. antikoncepce či spodní prádlo) od starověku až po novověk. V učebnicích historie i vědeckých dílech najdeme především údaje o panovnících, slavných bitvách, hospodářství i umění, ale o základních lidských potřebách se toho dozvíme málo či vůbec nic. Vlastimil Vondruška to napravuje a lehce stravitelným stylem přináší informace o různých pojetích péče o lidské tělo a o proměně společenského chování v ohledu na intimní činnosti od starověku až po baroko.

Spory pánů z Dubé s Vartemberky už delší dobu trápí celé severní Čechy, skoro stejně jako lapkové, kterými se zemské stezky jen hemží. Ostatně, co dobrého může prostým lidem přinést drancování a boj mezi urozenými rody? Na hradě Vartemberku se však chystá předem domluvená svatba mezi Ludmilou z Vartemberka a Benešem z Dubé, které má nepokojům učinit přítrž. Na hostinu přijíždí také královský prokurátor Oldřich z Chlumu, pověřený dohledem nad stavbou hradu Bezdězu. Jaké je však jeho překvapení, když jej vyhledá Ludmila z Vartemberka a prosí ho o pomoc.

Story
Co víme o 12. století? Třeba to, že se v Evropě začal pomocí destilace vyrábět alkohol, byla pravděpodobně sepsána Kosmova kronika česká, byly založeny řády Templářů a Premonstrátů, vznikl gotický sloh, byl vynalezen střelný prach a také proběhla první doložená chřipková epidemie. Jak se ale obecně žilo lidem ve 12. století? To popisuje první část cyklu Život ve staletích. I když dílo vychází z dostupných historických pramenů a odráží současný stav poznání, nejde o učebnici.

Martin ze Stvolna opouští z pověření Karla IV. s malou výpravou České země. Jeho úkolem bude získávat v zahraničí pro katedrálu svatého Víta ostatky svatých. Ani na této cestě není ochuzen o ženskou společnost - doprovází jej Johanka, stále ještě zákonná manželka třeboňského kata. Nejprve putují do Německa, kde se Martin ze Stvolna setkává s dávným přítelem a později nepřítelem na život a na smrt, Konrádem z Wormsu. Potíže s inkvizicí však způsobí, že královský vyslanec musí brzy uprchnout do Itálie.

Přes dvacet příběhů s detektivní zápletkou se odehrává v různých dobách od středověku až do 18. století. V poutavém vyprávění nás autor provede prostředím hradů a dvorských slavností, temných uliček měst a špinavých předměstí, prosperujících panství i zapadlých vesnic. Hlavními hrdiny příběhů s věrohodně vylíčenou atmosférou a živými dialogy jsou lidé rozmanitých cechů, stavů i řemesel. Od rytířů, vyrážejících na křížovou výpravu, pražské konšele, studenty až k vykonavatelkám nejstaršího řemesla.

Dědicové Ignáce Heřmana přijdou o Falknovskou huť, kterou získá Leopoldova bývalá snoubenka Hildegarda a ta žije pro jedinou věc – rodu Heřmanů se pomstít. Ignácovi vnukové musí čelit nejen jejím intrikám, ale i hospodářským potížím, které s sebou nese nový styl manufakturního podnikání. Tradiční obchod nahrazují dravé obchodní kompanie. Překotné změny však zároveň znamenají nové příležitosti pro všechny schopné, ženy nevyjímaje. Není proto náhodou, že sepsání pokračování rodinné kroniky se ujme mladá Johannova dcera Vilemína, která si za podpory hraběte Kinského otevře vlastní bělidlo.

Zdá se, že v už Čechách není tak bezpečno, jak bylo dříve. Lupiči na Menším Městě pražském se nebojí uchýlit i k zabíjení a ze zchudlých šlechticů se stávají lapkové. Královský písař Jiří Adam z Dobronína je povolán do kanceláře nejvyššího purkrabího Jana z Vartemberka. Důvodem je vražda velmožova syna Jindřicha, ke které došlo téže noci. Zároveň však, jak mu Jan z Vartemberka sdělí, již více jak před týdnem zmizel jeho nevlastní syn Jakub. V jeho ložnici se našel list, v němž stálo, že syn pána z Vartemberka dluží dvacet tisíc kop grošů, a pokud je za něj nezaplatí, bude to Jakuba stát život.

Druhorozený syn chudého českého zemana Martin ze Stvolna odchází do Paříže na nejvěhlasnější univerzitu známého světa. Záhy se zaplétá do milostných avantýr a na tom nejméně očekávaném místě nachází svou první velkou lásku. Brzy mu jeho loutna a básnické umění otevřou cestu i do těch nejvyšších kruhů. Na studium nezbývá mnoho času, přesto však spolu s přáteli studenty vzbudí zájem inkvizice. Příčinou má být četba zakázaných knih, které kolují po městě, skutečnost je však jiná. Martinovi ze Stvolna nezbývá nic jiného, než z města uprchnout.

Poznáme významné stavby na našem území a budeme sledovat počátky gotiky, zakládání měst a jejich rozkvět. Byli naši předci tak nároční na bydlení a odívání, jako jsme my? Co znamenaly chrámy pro tehdejší lidi a jaká byla jejich spiritualita? Jako úlohu přičítali vzdělání, jak se bavili a jak milovali? Na tyto i další otázky odpovídá historik Vlastimil Vondruška.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

No one knows about the strange powers she possesses or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares… but it turns out they're real.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.
