      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. Forced to settle on Roshar, a storm-ravaged world, humanity faced relentless attacks from the Voidbringers. In response, the Almighty bestowed powerful suits of armor and mystical weapons, known as Shardblades, to aid them. With the guidance of ten Heralds and orders of knights called Radiants, humanity triumphed—or so the legends claim. Now, remnants of those battles linger in the form of Shardblades, which grant near invincibility in combat. The world is embroiled in a centuries-long conflict, fueled by kings vying for Shardblades and the hope of uniting mankind under one throne. Amidst this turmoil, a young spearman is thrust into the army of a Shardbearer, facing an enemy he struggles to comprehend. Questions linger about humanity's past, the Radiants' betrayal, and the fate of their lost magic. Readers rave about the book's incredible quality, describing it as a multi-POV, action-packed narrative filled with heartfelt moments and thrilling excitement. The richly developed world and multidimensional characters captivate audiences, marking the beginning of an epic fantasy masterpiece that elevates storytelling to new heights.

      From the bestselling author Brandon Sanderson comes the final book in an epic series about a girl who will travel beyond the stars to save the world she loves from destruction. Spensa has made it out of the Nowhere, but what she saw in the space between the stars has changed her forever. She came face to face with the Delvers and finally got answers to the questions she’s had about her own strange Cytonic gifts. The Superiority didn’t stop in its fight for galactic dominance while she was gone, though. Spensa’s team, Skyward Flight, was able to hold Winzik off and even collect allies to help with the cause, but it’s only a matter of time until humanity—and the rest of the galaxy—falls. Defeating them will require all the knowledge Spensa gathered while in the Nowhere. But being Cytonic is more complicated than she ever could have imagined. Now, Spensa must ask herself: How far is she willing to go for victory, if it means losing herself—and her friends—in the process. The final book in the Skyward series will free humanity, or see it fall forever.

    • For years, frontier lawman turned big-city senator Waxillium Ladrian has hunted the shadowy organization the Set―with his late uncle and his sister among their leaders―since they started kidnapping people with the power of Allomancy in their bloodlines. When Detective Marasi Colms and her partner Wayne find stockpiled weapons bound for the Outer City of Bilming, this opens a new lead. Conflict between Elendel and the Outer Cities only favors the Set, and their tendrils now reach to the Elendel Senate―whose corruption Wax and Steris have sought to expose―and Bilming is even more entangled. After Wax discovers a new type of explosive that can unleash unprecedented destruction and realizes that the Set must already have it, an immortal kandra serving Scadrial’s god, Harmony, reveals that Bilming has fallen under the influence of another god: Trell, worshipped by the Set. And Trell isn’t the only factor at play from the larger Cosmere―Marasi is recruited by offworlders with strange abilities who claim their goal is to protect Scadrial...at any cost. Wax must choose whether to set aside his rocky relationship with God and once again become the Sword that Harmony has groomed him to be. If no one steps forward to be the hero Scadrial needs, the planet and its millions of people will come to a sudden and calamitous ruin.--Amazon

      All her life, Spensa has dreamed of becoming a pilot. Of proving she's a hero like her father. She made it to the sky, but the truths she learned about her father were crushing. The rumours of his cowardice are true - he deserted his flight during battle against the Krell. Worse, though, he turned against his team and attacked them. Spensa is sure there's more to the story.

While on a desperate flight to warn his family of the threat, Kaladin Stormblessed must come to grips with the fact that the newly kindled anger of the parshmen may be wholly justified. Nestled in the mountains high above the storms, in the tower city of Urithiru, Shallan Davar investigates the wonders of the ancient stronghold of the Knights Radiant and unearths dark secrets lurking in its depths. And Dalinar realizes that his holy mission to unite his homeland of Alethkar was too narrow in scope. Unless all the nations of Roshar can put aside Dalinar's blood-soaked past and stand together--and unless Dalinar himself can confront that past--even the restoration of the Knights Radiant will not prevent the end of civilization

Тысячу лет существует Последняя империя, управляемая бессмертным и неуязвимым лордом-правителем, единственным богом и властителем этого мира. Тысячу лет назад он победил в схватке неведомую Бездну, грозившую уничтожить все живое, и, получив огромную силу, поработил мир, вместо того чтобы освободить его. С тех пор с неба в Последней империи сыплется пепел, солнце — цвета крови, а ночью мир обволакивает таинственный туман, отбирающий у людей душу. Способен ли хоть один человек сокрушить всесильного императора? Да, отвечает Кельсер — вор, человек-легенда, совершивший в свое время попытку ограбить дворец самого лорда-правителя, сосланный за это на рудники и сумевший не только выжить, но и бежать на свободу. И начинает собирать силы для решительного удара…

      For a thousand years the ash fell and no flowers bloomed. For a thousand years the Skaa slaved in misery and lived in fear while the Lord Ruler reigned with absolute power and ultimate terror, a divinely invincible leader. Hope is long lost, until a terribly scarred, heart-broken half-Skaa in the depths of the most hellish prison and discovered he has the powers of a Mistborn. A brilliant thief and natural leader, Kelsier will turn his talents to the ultimate caper: one with the Lord Ruler himself as the mark. Only he's not just planning the greatest heist in history, he's plotting the overthrow of a divine despot. Kelsier recruited the underworld's elite, the smartest and most trustworthy allomancers, each of whom shares one of his many powers, and all of whom relish a high-stakes challenge. But even with the best criminal crew ever assembled, Kel's plan looks like a long shot, until luck brings a ragged girl named Vin into his life. Like him, she's a half-Skaa orphan, but she's lived a much harsher life. Vin has learned to expect betrayal from everyone she meets, and gotten it. She will have to learn to trust, if Kel is to help her master powers of which she never dreamed.

      From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, this tale follows two princess sisters, their impending marriage to the God King, a reluctant lesser god, and an immortal seeking redemption for past mistakes. In their world, those who die heroically ascend as gods, residing in a pantheon in Hallandren's capital. The unique BioChromatic magic relies on an essence called breath, collected one unit at a time from individuals. By harnessing breath and manipulating the color in everyday objects, characters can perform remarkable feats. To navigate the challenges ahead, Vivenna and Siri, princesses of Idris, must rely on substantial amounts of breath alongside Susebron the God King, Lightsong the hesitant god of bravery, and the enigmatic Vasher, known as the Warbreaker. This intricate narrative weaves together themes of power, duty, and the quest for identity in a vividly imagined world. Other works by Sanderson include titles in The Cosmere, The Stormlight Archive, and the Mistborn series, as well as standalone novels and series like Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians and The Rithmatist.
