      The Nommo Award Winner. The Nebula Award Finalist. The World Fantasy Award Finalist. The British Science Fiction Award Nominee. A contemporary fantasy filled with the mythos of Nigeria. Shigidi is the god of nightmares. Once a feared and powerful member of the Yoruba spirit world, these days he haunts people for scraps of power, which he must give up to the executives of the Orisha Spirit Company. Nneoma is a deadly succubus. Fierce, independent and unpredictable, she's not afraid to take dangerous risks to free herself from the mistakes of her past. Two soulmates. One bid for freedom. To gain the independence they both desire, the two of them are about to embark on a heist that spans both the real world and the spiritual world. But they'll find far more than they bargained for in the depths of the British Museum . . . A supernatural adventure novel rich in Nigerian mythology, and an eviscerating examination of cultural theft in the real world. This is perfect for fans of P. Djeli Clark, Nnedi Okorafor and Ben Aaronovitch.

      Extrapolanti a nalezenci

      Kde vzít energii pro svět, který ji chce vice? Jak náš svět ovlivní nanotechnologie? Je reálný 3D tisk živých tkání? Fyzika budoucnosti: Extrapolanti a nalezenci snad zodpoví některé z vašich otázek o fyzice budoucnosti a budoucnosti fyziky – a zcela nepochybně otevře nové! Těšit se můžete na povídky Lucie Lukačovičové, Hanuše Seinera, Terezy Matouškové, Vilmy Kadlečkové, Tomáše Petráska a Woleho Talabiho, i na bonusovou povídku editorky Julie Novákové. Vydejte se s nimi do nablýskaných i apokalyptických světů; na Zemi blízké budoucnosti i vzdálené planety; k životu, jak ho neznáme, za futuristickými vizemi nových technologií i „punkovým“ využitím technologií, které nám v jednodušší podobé slouží už dnes. Vice o fyzice v pozadí sci-fi příběhů vám prozradí popularizační články z pera vědkyň a vědců z Fyzikálního ústavu AV ČR: Vítka Zažímala, Pavla Baláže, Hany Andélové, Petry Elblové, Olega Lunova, Pavly Bauerové a Jiřího Kaštila.
