Цзянь продолжает обучение под чутким руководством Тайши. Вместе с Цофи они находят приют в Облачных Столпах. Цофи постепенно просвещает Цзяня в области иностранных языков, политики и математики. А бывшие воины, которых тут можно встретить на каждом шагу, ненароком подсказывают секретные техники. Иногда ученик даже что-то усваивает.

Тем временем Цисами была понижена в должности за провал миссии и попала в тщательно продуманную ловушку. А Сали, вынужденная искать лекарство после смерти Вечного Хана, внезапно оказывается оплотом надежд и предводителем своего народа.

Потому что иногда судьба грандиознее, чем может предвидеть любое пророчество.

Бывший предреченный герой Цзянь продолжает обучение под руководством Тайши, Цисами обретает новую личность, а Сали, всё потеряв, становится лидером выживших. Однажды их пути пересекутся, и это будет грандиознее, чем может предвидеть пророчество.

Во главе Чжун когда-то был единственный император, но он умер, и между Пяти Поднебесными княжествами началась междоусобица. Объединить их правителей может единственная цель — победа над Вечным Ханом. Ради этой цели они растрачивают свою казну на воспитание предреченного героя Тяньди — Цзяня, с рождения росшего в роскоши и великолепии и прославленного еще до того, как он выиграл хотя бы одно сражение. Однако внезапно оказывается, что пророчество неверно.

An epic fantasy ode to martial arts and magic—the story of a spoiled hero, an exacting grandmaster, and an immortal god-king from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Lives of Tao.

It has been foretold: A child will rise to defeat the Eternal Khan, a cruel immortal god-king, and save the kingdom.

The hero: Jian, who has been raised since birth in luxury and splendor, celebrated before he has won a single battle.

But the prophecy was wrong.

Because when Taishi, the greatest war artist of her generation, arrives to evaluate the prophesied hero, she finds a spoiled brat unprepared to face his destiny.

But the only force more powerful than fate is Taishi herself. Possessed of an iron will, a sharp tongue—and an unexpectedly soft heart—Taishi will find a way to forge Jian into the weapon and leader he needs to be in order to fulfill his legend.

What follows is a journey more wondrous than any prophecy can foresee: a story of master and student, assassin and revolutionary, of fallen gods and broken prophecies, and of a war between kingdoms, and love and friendship between deadly rivals.

Усе, про що мріяв Маґнус Бейн, – це відпустка: розкішна подорож Європою із Алеком Лайтвудом, тіньовим мисливцем, який, попри всі перешкоди, таки стає його хлопцем.
Та варто було закоханим облаштуватися в Парижі, як до них навідується старий друг і повідомляє про демонічний культ під назвою «Багряна Рука», що сіє хаос по всьому світу.
Тепер Маґнус із Алеком мусять об’ї

Новые захватывающие приключения Магнуса Бейна и Алека Лайтвуда. То, что должно было стать романтическим отдыхом, снова оказалось опаснейшей миссией в самое сердце империи зла.

На этот раз судьба приводит Магнуса и Алека в Шанхай — именно туда ведут следы тех, кто похитил Белую книгу, в которой собраны самые мощные заклинания. Но вскоре Сумеречные охотники узнают, что над ними и всем, что им дорого, нависла страшная угроза. В их мир вот‑вот прорвется армия демонов...

All Magnus Bane wanted was a vacation—a lavish trip across Europe with Alec Lightwood, the Shadowhunter who against all odds is finally his boyfriend. But as soon as the pair settles in Paris, an old friend arrives with news about a demon-worshipping cult called the Crimson Hand that is bent on causing chaos around the world. A cult that was apparently founded by Magnus himself. Years ago. As a joke. Now Magnus and Alec must race across Europe to track down the Crimson Hand and its elusive new leader before the cult can cause any more damage. As if it wasn’t bad enough that their romantic getaway has been sidetracked, demons are now dogging…

From #1 New York Times bestselling authors Cassandra Clare and Wesley Chu comes the second book in the Eldest Curses series and a thrilling new adventure for High Warlock Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood, for whom a death-defying mission into the heart of evil is not just a job, it’s also a romantic getaway. The Lost Book of the White is a Shadowhunters novel.

Life is good for Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood. They’re living together in a fabulous loft, their warlock son, Max, has started learning to walk, and the streets of New York are peaceful and quiet—as peaceful and quiet as they ever are, anyway.

Until the night that two old acquaintances break into Magnus’s apartment and steal the powerful Book of the White. Now Magnus and Alec will have to drop everything to get it back. They need to follow the thieves to Shanghai, they need to call some backup to accompany them, and they need a babysitter.

Also, someone has stabbed Magnus with a strange magical weapon and the wound is glowing, so they have that to worry about too.

Fortunately, their backup consists of Clary, Jace, Isabelle, and newly minted Shadowhunter Simon. In Shanghai, they learn that a much darker threat awaits them. Magnus’s magic is growing unstable, and if they can’t stop the demons flooding into the city, they might have to follow them all the way back to the source—to the very realm of the dead. Can they stop the threat to the world? Will they make it back home before their kid completely wears out Alec’s mom?

Cameron Tan wouldn’t have even been in Greece if he hadn’t gotten a ‘D’ in Art History.
Instead of spending the summer after college completing his training as a Prophus operative, he’s doing a study abroad program in Greece, enjoying a normal life – spending time with friends and getting teased about his crush on a classmate.
Then the emergency notification comes in: a Prophus agent with vital information needs immediate extraction, and Cameron is the only agent on the ground, responsible for getting the other agent and data out of the country. The Prophus are relying on him to uncomplicate things.
Easy.
Easy, except the rival Genjix have declared all-out war against the Prophus, which means Greece is about to be a very dangerous place. And the agent isn’t the only person relying on Cameron to get them safely out of the country – his friends from the study abroad program are, too. Cameron knows a good agent would leave them to fend for themselves. He also knows a good person wouldn’t. Suddenly, things aren’t easy at all.
The Days of Tao is the latest in the popular Tao series from award-winning author, Wesley Chu. Following after The Rebirths of Tao, this novella carries on the fast-moving and fun tone of the series.

Преследуемый прошлым, порабощённый настоящим, Джеймс Гриффин-Марс берёт под свой контроль будущее. Земля отравлена, малонаселенная пустошь — идеальное укрытие для беглого путешественника во времени, чтобы скрыться от властей. У Джеймса есть союзники — учёные, которых он спас в прошлом. Но у Джеймса есть и враги — корпорация, которой управляет жадность и страх. В центре корпорации — её безжалостный руководитель Куо, который жаждет получить голову Джеймса и он ни перед чем не остановится.

In a future when Earth is a toxic, abandoned world and humanity has spread into the outer solar system to survive, the tightly controlled use of time travel holds the key to maintaining a fragile existence among the other planets and their moons. James Griffin-Mars is a chronman–a convicted criminal recruited for his unique psychological makeup to undertake the most dangerous job there is: missions into Earth’s past to recover resources and treasure without altering the timeline. Most chronmen never reach old age, and James is reaching his breaking point. On his final mission, James meets scientist Elise Kim, who is fated to die during the destruction of an oceanic rig. Against his training and common sense, James brings her back to the future with him, saving her life, but turning them both into fugitives. Remaining free means losing themselves in the wild and poisonous wastes of Earth, and discovering what hope may yet remain for humanity’s home world.

Several years have passed since the events in The Deaths of Tao. The world is split into pro-Prophus and pro-Genjix factions, and is poised on the edge of a devastating new World War. A Gengix scientist who defects to the other side holds the key to preventing bloodshed on an almost unimaginable scale.

With the might of the Genjix in active pursuit, Roen is the only person who can help him save the world, and the Quasing race, too.
And you thought you were having a stressful day…

The Prophus and the Genjix are at war. For centuries they have sought a way off-planet, guiding humanity’s social and technological development to the stage where space travel is possible. The end is now in sight, and both factions have plans to leave the Earth, but the Genjix method will mean the destruction of the human race.

That’s a price they’re willing to pay.

It’s up to Roen and Tao to save the world. Oh, dear…

When out-of-shape IT technician Roen woke up and started hearing voices in his head, he naturally assumed he was losing it.

He wasn’t.

He now has a passenger in his brain – an ancient alien life-form called Tao, whose race crash-landed on Earth before the first fish crawled out of the oceans. Now split into two opposing factions – the peace-loving, but under-represented Prophus, and the savage, powerful Genjix – the aliens have been in a state of civil war for centuries. Both sides are searching for a way off-planet, and the Genjix will sacrifice the entire human race, if that’s what it takes.

Meanwhile, Roen is having to train to be the ultimate secret agent. Like that’s going to end up well…
