"Aelin Galathynius has vowed to save her people--but at a tremendous cost. Locked within an iron coffin by the Queen of the Fae, Aelin must draw upon her fiery will as she endures months of torture. The knowledge that yielding to Maeve will doom those she loves keeps her from breaking, but her resolve is unraveling with each passing day... With Aelin captured, friends and allies are scattered to different fates. Some bonds will grow even deeper, while others will be severed forever. As destinies weave together at last, all must fight if Erilea is to have any hope of salvation"--Dust jacket flap.
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.

'One of the best fantasy book series of the past decade' TIME The heir of ash and fire bows to no one. A new threat rises in the third book in the #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas. Celaena Sardothien has survived deadly contests and shattering heartbreak, but now she must travel to a new land to confront her darkest truth. That truth could change her life -- and her future -- forever. Meanwhile, monstrous forces are gathering on the horizon, intent on enslaving her world. To defeat them, Celaena will need the strength not only to fight the evil that is about to be unleashed but also to harness her inner demons. If she is to win this battle, she must find the courage to face her destiny -- and burn brighter than ever before. The third book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series continues Celaena's epic journey from woman to warrior.
Eighteen-year-old Celaena Sardothien is bold, daring and beautiful - the perfect seductress and the greatest assassin her world has ever known. But though she won the King's contest and became his champion, Celaena has been granted neither her liberty nor the freedom to follow her heart. The slavery of the suffocating salt mines of Endovier that scarred her past is nothing compared to a life bound to her darkest enemy, a king whose rule is so dark and evil it is near impossible to defy. Celaena faces a choice that is tearing her heart to pieces: kill in cold blood for a man she hates, or risk sentencing those she loves to death. Celaena must decide what she will fight for: survival, love or the future of a kingdom. Because an assassin cannot have it all ...And trying to may just destroy her. Love or loathe Celaena, she will slice open your heart with her dagger and leave you bleeding long after the last page of this New York Times bestselling sequel, in what is undeniably THE hottest new fantasy series.
