Sezona Oluja

      Andrzej Sapkowski
     Sezona Oluja

Objavljena 2013. godine u Poljskoj, Sezona oluja je odmah postala hit. Za to postoji dobar razlog: ona predstavlja uvodnu knjigu sage o vešcu Geraltu, upotpunjujući jedan od najpopularnijih serijala na svetu. Veščevi mačevi. Prvi mač je čeličan. Sideritni čelik, ruda koja potiče iz meteorita. Kovan u Mahakamu, u patuljačkim livnicama. Ukupna dužina četrdeset i po colova, samo sečivo dugo dvadeset sedam i četvrt. Izvanredna balansiranost, težina sečiva precizno jednaka težini rukohvata, težina celog oružja ispod četrdeset unci. Izrada rukohvata i nakrsnice jednostavna ali elegantna. Drugi mač, slične dužine i težine, srebrn. Na nakrsnici i čitavoj oštrici runski znaci i glifovi. Početna cena: hiljadu korona za komplet. Sagu o vešcu je, do objavljivanja ove knjige, sačinjavalo sedam knjiga: dve zbirke pripovedaka i pet romana. Saga je postala bestseler ne samo u autorovoj rodnoj Poljskoj već i širom sveta. Prevedena je na brojne svetske jezike, a na osnovu nje su nastale TV serija i čuvena kompjuterska igra The Witcher.

     Heir to the Jedi

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. . . . A thrilling new adventure set between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back, and—for the first time ever—written entirely from Luke Skywalker’s first-person point of view. Luke Skywalker’s game-changing destruction of the Death Star has made him not only a hero of the Rebel Alliance but a valuable asset in the ongoing battle against the Empire. Though he’s a long way from mastering the power of the Force, there’s no denying his phenomenal skills as a pilot—and in the eyes of Rebel leaders Princess Leia Organa and Admiral Ackbar, there’s no one better qualified to carry out a daring rescue mission crucial to the Alliance cause. A brilliant alien cryptographer renowned for her ability to breach even the most advanced communications systems is being detained by Imperial agents determined to exploit her exceptional talents for the Empire’s purposes. But the prospective spy’s sympathies lie with the Rebels, and she’s willing to join their effort in exchange for being reunited with her family. It’s an opportunity to gain a critical edge against the Empire that’s too precious to pass up. It’s also a job that demands the element of surprise. So Luke and the ever-resourceful droid R2-D2 swap their trusty X-wing fighter for a sleek space yacht piloted by brash recruit Nakari Kelen, daughter of a biotech mogul, who’s got a score of her own to settle with the Empire. Challenged by ruthless Imperial bodyguards, death-dealing enemy battleships, merciless bounty hunters, and monstrous brain-eating parasites, Luke plunges head-on into a high-stakes espionage operation that will push his abilities as a Rebel fighter and would-be Jedi to the limit. If ever he needed the wisdom of Obi-Wan Kenobi to shepherd him through danger, it’s now. But Luke will have to rely on himself, his friends, and his own burgeoning relationship with the Force to survive.
