Der König des Volksstamms der Sumsilen will die Armut seines Volkes beseitigen. Indem er Schatten bei der Arbeit helfen lässt, scheint ihm das zu gelingen, aber die Maßnahme erweist sich in vielfältiger Hinsicht als Bumerang: Im Prozeß des Reichwerdens versteinert das Herz der Sumsilen; zudem achten die Schatten nicht auf das ökologische Gleichgewicht und es gelingt ihnen, die Machtverhältnisse umzukehren: Nicht die Schatten schuften für die Sumsilen, sondern die Sumsilen schuften für die Schatten, die daraufhin in Saus und Braus leben können.

Die Prinzessin ist so schön wie störrisch. Was sie sich in den Kopf setzt, muss geschehen. So weist sie schnippisch den Prinzen zurück, der mit kostbaren Perlen um ihre Hand wirbt. »Jeder Tölpel kann mir solche Perlen schenken! Bring mir das singende, klingende Bäumchen!« Noch nie hat jemand von so einem Bäumchen gehört. Nach langer Suche findet es der Prinz in einem Zauberreich. Dort herrscht ein garstiger Zwerg, der ihm das Bäumchen unter einer Bedingung überlässt: Nur wenn die Prinzessin wahrhaft liebt, kann es singen. Doch das Bäumchen bleibt stumm. So gewinnt der Zwerg die Macht, den Prinzen in einen Bären zu verwandeln, die Prinzessin ihrer Schönheit zu berauben und beide zu zwingen, in seinem Reich zu leben. Womit er nicht rechnet: Die Prinzessin lernt, Eitelkeit und Hochmut abzulegen und nach der Stimme des Herzens zu handeln. Das von Anne Geelhaar nach Motiven der Brüder Grimm verfasste Märchen wurde von der DEFA verfilmt und gilt als eine der schönsten Märchenproduktionen überhaupt. Für die Buchausgabe hat Karl-Heinz Appelmann das Märchen in Anlehnung an die Bilder des legendären Films zauberhaft illustriert.

Retko ko je kro¿io u Selevenjsku ¿umu jer se zle i opake stvari de¿avaju u toj zäaranoj ¿umi. Ko god da je unutra zäao nikada se vi¿e iz nje nije vratio a ono malo kojima je to ipak uspelo ili su izgubili svako se¿anje ili su u potpunosti pomerili pame¿u. Niko iz obli¿njeg sela se ne usudjuje da zucne ni re¿i jer vile koje tamo ¿ive su mo¿ne i opake. Posebno strepe od Ambrozije, najmo¿nije od svih jer niko nije siguran od njene osvetni¿ke ruke. ¿ak i same selevenjske vile strepe od nje jer se Ambrozija ne obazire na vilinski kodeks. Posebno je kivna na Koviljku jer je ova zäela dete sa seoskim ¿umarem i time zape¿atila sudbinu vilinskog carstva. Iako je svesna svoje gre¿ke, Koviljka po svaku cenu nastoji da zätiti svoje tek rodjeno ¿edo. Poslednjim snagama skriva bebu na saläu kod paora bez dece a onda namami Ambroziju kod Naprate i sunovrati ih obe u ¿umski zdenac. Ne slute¿i da je devoj¿ica vila, paori je odgajaju kao svoju sopstvenu k¿i a zbog nebo plavih o¿iju su joj nadenuli ime Cikorija, po divljem cvetu koji izdäno raste po njihovim poljima. Nakon petanest godina Ambrozija se konäno oslobadja iz zdenca i gnevnija nego ikada kre¿e u besomu¿nu poteru. Ona ima samo jo¿ jedan jedini cilj, da sprovede do kraja ono ¿to je onomad davno zapo¿ela.

Hank Mossberg has crossed paths with every lowlife scumbag the world of the fae could produce, from child stealing imps to drug dealing goblins, but now he's pitted against a villain unlike any he has ever faced before. The dark-elf Siva warned Hank that a storm was coming. Now he's going to find out what she meant. The madness begins when the wizard known as Magnus attacks a crew of Golden Gate Bridge workers, using magic to hurl fireballs and lightning at his helpless victims. Before the carnage is over, several workers are dead and the world of the fae has been exposed for all mortals to see. As Hank delves deeper into the case, he begins to suspect the old wizard's motives may lie hidden somewhere in the dark secrets of his past. But just as Hank is about to expose the truth, the killer turns the tables. Now Hank is the target, and the killer will stop at nothing to destroy him… Even if it means murdering everyone Hank has ever loved.

A book which attempts to reconstruct two ancient Sumerian stories from photographs of the stone tablets on which they were originally written: one story concerns an ancient account of a deluge (or flood) which destroyed much of civilization); the other concerns the exploits of the mythical Gilgamesh who takes a stand against Agga, the king of Kish. The epic also presents a striking portrayal of human limitations. Gilgamesh becomes arrogant with his success, and the people of Uruk call on the gods to deliver them from this tyrant. In response, the gods make Enkidu, the wild man, who is Gilgamesh's equal in strength. Gilgamesh's battle with Enkidu tempers his character, and the two embark on a series of adventures, leaving Uruk in peace. Some readers have interpreted this as an early recognition of the need to use power to limit power.

Le petit prince. Skazka-pritcha "Malen'kij princ" pojavilas' v 1943 godu za neskol'ko mesjacev do poslednego boevogo vyleta pisatelja. Sent-Jekzjuperi ljubil povtorjat' chto imenno v detskie gody formirujutsja osnovnye kachestva cheloveka i chto bezmerno schastliv tot kto na vsju zhizn' sumel sohranit' udivlenie pered mirom i blagodarnoe otnoshenie ko vsemu zhivomu. "Vse my rodom iz detstva" - napominaet pisatel' i znakomit nas s samym zagadochnym trogatel'nym i beskonechno hrupkim sushhestvom po imeni Malen'kij princ. Pri vsej svoej bezzashhitnosti Malen'kij princ neprimirim k zhadnosti i chestoljubiju. Pered siloj ego dobroty i prostodushnoj mudrosti otstupaet dazhe sama zheltaja zmejka - smert' poka Malen'kij princ ne prizyvaet ee k sebe chtoby takoj cenoj spasti ljubimoe sushhestvo kotoroe on priruchil. Kazhdyj chelovek bud' to vzroslyj ili rebenok slushaja skazku zadumaetsja ili kak govoril Malen'kij princ "uvidit serdcem" jeto pronzitel'no-pechal'noe pojeticheskoe proizvedenie v kotorom Sent-Jekzjuperi vyrazil svoi samye zavetnye mysli. Chto neobhodimo cenit' cheloveka ego ulybku. Chto nel'zja zhit' bez ljubvi i druzhby. I chto ljudjam nuzhna krasota pojezii i dobrota tak zhe kak chistaja voda rodnika.
