Jerzy Żuławski
"Wyciągnął pięści ku uciekającemu nad nimi Księżycowi i począł kląć grubymi, ludowymi wyrazami tego zwycięskiego przybysza, odgrażając mu się tak, jak gdyby go mógł jeszcze ujrzeć kiedy i pognębić. Mataret nie słuchał już tych krzyków. Zamyślił się, a po chwili rzekł: — Jesteś więc pewny ciągle, że Ziemia jest niezamieszkana i niemożliwa do życia dla żadnej istoty? (...) spadali na Ziemię, która wirowała z zachodu na wschód przed ich oczyma, coraz nowe morza i lądy im pokazując." [FRAGMENT]

Steve Costigan. Fighting Sailor
Robert E. Howard
Robert E. Howard best known for his contributions to the extremely popular sword and sorcery genre of fiction. Howards writings became more successful posthumously and he created legendary characters such as Conan the Barbarian and Solomon Kane. Though much better known for his fantasies, Howard wrote more about the humorous escapades of Sailor Steve Costigan and his bulldog Mike than any of his other characters. In a unique Texas voice, the unreliable narrator Costigan recounts his adventures with the crew of the tramp steamer Sea Girl. He roamed the 1930s Asiatic sea, looking for boxing contests and other trouble. Like Howards other turbulent heroes, from Conan to Black Turlogh, Sailor Steve is always ready to wade into a fight, whether to uphold the honor of the fleet or to win a kiss from a beautiful woman. This collection includes the following: The Pit of the Serpent, Breed of Battle, Sailors Grudge, and many more.
George Owen Baxter
Renowned Western writer Max Brand does it again in the eminently enjoyable novel "Stolen Gold". Packed with enough action and romance to please even the most die-hard fans of the genre, the novel also addresses a wide range of important themes with insight and sensitivity. No one knew - or wrote about - the West like Max Brand, as shown brilliantly in the this classic short novel. In this novel Reata, one of Brands most popular heroes, is enlisted to retrieve a hidden treasure in gold - little knowing that its stolen goods. The plot is well constructed with well drawn subsidiary characters and provides a number of interesting twists. Highly recommended, especially for those who love the Old Western genre.

Stories From Livy is a great collection of stories about important events and people in Roman history. Tales of early Roman history drawn from the greatest of Roman historians, and admirably retold by Alfred J. Church. Features stories of the founding of Rome, the expulsion of kings, and the early days of the republic. It covers the period from the founding of Rome through the Samnite Wars (about 750 to 300 B.C.). Famous stories of the Roman kings, and such early heroes as Horatius, Coriolanus, Cincinnatus, Camillus, Manlius, and Mucius Scaevola are related. This is a faithful rendition of Livys History of Rome, but simplified for the general reader.

The story begins with a tragic event. Jim Westons house burned to the ground, which caused a lot of talk not only in the valley, but along the entire coastal road. The most interesting thing is that the houses in the district are also affected by fire. There were several reasons. Perhaps this was done by Jims former enemy, or maybe by accident.

Współczesny polski turysta zgłębia historię budowy piramidy faraona Chufu. Jak to możliwe, że mimo prowadzonych w latach 60. przez amerykańskich naukowców prześwietleń budynku, wciąż nie odnaleziono komory grobowej i sarkofagu faraona? Oprócz wątku sensacyjnego, powieść zawiera wiele informacji dotyczących historii starożytnego Egiptu oraz odnośniki do innych publikacji na ten temat.
