Aelin Galathynius's journey from slave to assassin to queen reaches its heart-rending finale as war erupts across her world ... She has risked everything to save her people - but at a tremendous cost. Locked in an iron coffin by the Queen of the Fae, Aelin must draw upon her fiery will to endure the months of torture inflicted upon her. The knowledge that yielding to Maeve will doom those she loves keeps her from breaking, but her resolve is unravelling with each passing day... With Aelin imprisoned, Aedion and Lysandra are the last line of defence keeping Terrasen from utter destruction. But even the many allies they've gathered to battle Erawan's hordes might not be enough to save the kingdom. Scattered throughout the continent and racing against time, Chaol, Manon, and Dorian must forge their own paths to meet their destinies. And across the sea Rowan hunts to find his captured wife and queen - before she is lost to him. Some bonds will deepen and others be severed forever, but as the threads of fate weave together at last, all must fight if they are to find salvation - and a better world.Years in the making, Kingdom of Ash is the unforgettable conclusion to Sarah J. Maas's #1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series

Internetovou jazykovou příručku kolektivu autorů Ústavu pro jazyk český AV ČR využilo během prvních dvou let od zpřístupnění více než půl milionu uživatelů češtiny. Její výkladová část nyní vychází poprvé knižně. Do příručky byly zařazeny především ty jevy, na něž se často ptají tazatelé v jazykové poradně. Najdete zde obecná poučení o českém jazyce, zejména o pravopisu, tvarosloví a některých syntaktických jevech. Na rozdíl od současných Pravidel českého pravopisu a mluvnic jsou některé výklady v příručce podrobnější a ucelenější (např. v oblasti psaní velkých písmen, interpunkce, shody přísudku s podmětem, skloňování osobních a zeměpisných jmen atd.). Ve výkladech se uvádějí i rozpory v údajích, které jednotlivé jazykové příručky přinášejí, nebo rozdíly mezi kodifikací a spisovným územ. V takových případech je připojen hodnotící komentář a doporučená řešení. Kniha je určena všem zájemcům o češtinu, a to jak široké veřejnosti, tak jejím profesionálním uživatelům, zvláště učitelům a studentům.

“Una piccola parte di me bisbigliava che potevo sopravvivere ad Amarantha; potevo sopravvivere alla transizione in quel nuovo corpo estraneo… Ma non ero sicura di poter sopravvivere a quella cavità vuota e fredda nel mio petto. Persino durante i periodi più bui, quella parte di me era stata piena di colore, di luce. Forse diventare una Fae l’aveva distrutta. Forse Amarantha l’aveva distrutta. O forse l’avevo distrutta io, quando avevo ficcato i pugnali nei cuori di due innocenti e il loro sangue mi aveva scaldato le mani.” Dopo essersi sottratta al giogo di Amarantha e averla sconfitta, Feyre può finalmente ritornare alla Corte di Primavera. Per riuscirci, però, ha dovuto pagare un prezzo altissimo. Il dolore, il senso di colpa e la rabbia per le azioni terribili che è stata costretta a commettere per liberare se stessa e Tamlin, e salvare il suo popolo, infatti, la stanno mangiando viva, pezzetto dopo pezzetto. E forse nemmeno l’eternità appena conquistata sarà lunga a sufficienza per ricomporla. Qualcosa in lei si è incrinato in modo irreversibile, tanto che ormai non si riconosce più. Non si sente più la stessa Feyre che, un anno prima, aveva fatto il suo ingresso nella Corte di Primavera. E forse non è nemmeno più la stessa Feyre di cui si è innamorato Tamlin. Tanto che l’arrivo improvviso e molto teatrale di Rhysand alla corte per reclamare la soddisfazione del loro patto – secondo il quale Feyre dovrà passare con lui una settimana al mese nella misteriosa Corte della Notte, luogo di montagne e oscurità, stelle e morte – è per lei quasi un sollievo. Ma mentre Feyre cerca di barcamenarsi nel fitto intrico di strategie politiche, potere e passioni contrastanti, un male ancora più pericoloso di quello appena sconfitto incombe su Prythian. E forse la chiave per fermarlo potrebbe essere proprio lei, a patto che riesca a sfruttare a pieno i poteri che ha ricevuto in dono quando è stata trasformata in una creatura immortale, a guarire la sua anima ferita e a decidere così che direzione dare al proprio futuro e a quello di un mondo spaccato in due.

Ancora una volta nascosta sotto il suo manto da assassina, Celaena è tornata a Rithfold, ma non è più una schiava. Ora è Aelin Ashryver Galathynius, Regina di Terrasen. Tuttavia, prima di riprendere il trono che le spetta, dovrà ancora combattere: scavare tra i ricordi più dolorosi, battersi per la sopravvivenza e lottare contro una passione che potrebbe consumarla. E soprattutto si troverà nuovamente di fronte al suo vecchio padrone, il Re degli Assassini. Pronta a reclamare vendetta.
