Doufá, že si ho všimne nějaký mocný velmož a bude moci své zemi sloužit i jinak než jen opisováním úředních listin. Příležitost se mu naskytne v okamžiku, kdy se mladému královskému synovi Přemyslu Otakarovi II.

Story
Při vojenské výpravě do Horních Uher se vojskům krále Přemysla II. Otakara podaří obsadit slovenskou Nitru. Správy města se ujímá prokurátor Oldřich z Chlumu. Jednoho rána se na Dolní bráně najde oběšené tělo kanovníka nitranské kapituly. Nitrou se šíří panika, neboť je právě tato brána považována za prokletou. Kdysi zde za podivných okolností zahynula žena, obviněná ze spojení s ďáblem. Stopy vyšetřovatele zavedou k chrámu svatého Jakuba, další pátrání je však přerušeno vraždou. Oldřich z Chlumu má tři dny na odhalení a usvědčení zločince.

Story
Sedmidílná sága vypráví o událostech slavné i pohnuté doby 15. století v Českém království. Snad žádná jiná historická epocha našich dějin není v obecných představách tak kontroverzní jako právě husitství. Ta doba je pro dějepisné líčení o to složitější, že obě strany, katolická i kališnická, měly svým způsobem pravdu, ale obě současně páchaly bezpráví. Snad poprvé se v naší literatuře objevuje dílo, které se odehrává v obou znepřátelených táborech, aniž by jeden upřednostňovalo před druhým.

Story
I když se situace v Uhrách v polovině 16. století již trochu uklidnila a útoky Osmanů na nějakou dobu utichly, objeví se jiná nebezpečná a zdánlivě neřešitelná záležitost. Protože použití vojska je vyloučeno a rovněž vyslanec českého krále v Budíně má v tom ohledu ruce svázané, obrátí se královna Anna na královského písaře Jiřího Adama z Dobronína. Pán z Dobronína se rozhodne její prosbě vyhovět a vydává se na tajnou misi do Uher. Ale ještě dříve, než tam stačí dorazit, dojde k první vraždě, která cestu velmi zkomplikuje.

Story
Na Pražském hradě došlo k neslýchanému zločinu. Přímo v úředním paláci byl jedné noci zavražděn zemský sudí Dobřej a v jeho těle byla nalezena dýka se satanskými znaky. Král Přemysl II. Otakar nemá k lidem na svém dvoře důvěru, a proto svěří vyšetřování mladému Oldřichovi z Chlumu. To se samozřejmě nelíbí zemským úředníkům, zvláště když se začne proslýchat, že král hodlá bezdězskému správci svěřit vlivný úřad. Pražský purkrabí na vlastní pěst obviní synovce zavražděného a král mladíka odsoudí k smrti.

Zdánlivě obyčejná návštěva hradu Krašova se změní v noční můru. Královský prokurátor Oldřich z Chlumu slíbil pomoci příbuzné, která se mu svěří s dávným prokletím hroznatovského rodu. Nejprve však jeho výpravu málem smete rozbouřená řeka a když pak uprostřed ledové vánice dorazí na Krašov, Oldřich z Chlumu na vlastní oči spatří, jak se kdosi uprostřed noci vrhne z oken hradu dolů do propasti. Obyvatelé hradu věří, že to byl přízrak zesnulé hradní paní Anny, královský prokurátor však hledá prozaičtější vysvětlení.

Napínavý detektivní příběh, odehrávající se v polovině 13. století, se vrací do doby mládí Oldřicha z Chlumu. Audiokniha objasňuje některé důležité události, předcházející příběhům královského prokurátora publikovaným v edici Hříšní lidé Království českého. Jako druhorozenému synovi je Oldřichovi z Chlumu určeno stát se knězem. Protože je velmi bystrý a má vynikající paměť, starý děkan Ignatius ho už brzy nemá co učit a pošle chlapce do klášterní školy v německém Magdeburku. Zde se čtrnáctiletý Oldřich z Chlumu stane nechtěným svědkem vraždy mladé dívky.

Píše se rok 1269 a Oldřich z Chlumu byl nedávno jmenován královským prokurátorem a správcem hradu Bezděz. Má čerstvě po svatbě, na líbánky však není čas. Jindřich z Donína, pán hradu Grabštejn, je chladnokrevně zavražděn a to ještě v době, kdy na jeho sídle pobývali hned tři význační šlechtici. Zdá se, že k vraždě velmože Jindřicha, který byl probodnut dýkou s hadem ve své vlastní ložnici, měli motiv všichni tři pánové. Jak s tím však souvisí vražda v johanitské komendě v Dubu?

Jindřich a Jiří Adam spolu v mládí studovali a i po dlouhých letech se stále považují za důvěrné přátele, což je v nejistých časech panování krále Ferdinanda I. Habsburského vzácnost. Jindřich chce, aby se Jiří Adam trochu pobavil a po smrti manželky přišel na jiné myšlenky. Ani jeden však netuší, jak smutné rozptýlení jim svatba na Krakovci ve skutečnosti přichystá.

Mocný jihočeský velmož Oldřich z Hradce se soukromě obrátí na královského prokurátora a správce severních Čech Oldřicha z Chlumu s prosbou o pomoc. Na jeho panství se totiž začaly dít věci, které jsou nejen proti lidskému rozumu, ale i proti křesťanské víře. Došlo také k nevysvětlitelné vraždě, jejíž obětí se stal jeho otec Vítek. Zdá se, že nitky zla sahají až za hranice Českého království.

Oldřich z Chlumu se sice ocitl v nemilosti českého krále, ale přesto je povolán do Prahy, aby vyřešil na první pohled jednoduchý případ. Malostranský špitál vlastní darovací listinu na tři vesnice vystavenou Václavem I., otcem Přemysla Otakara II. a jeho předchůdcem na královském trůně. Král si ovšem nepamatuje, že by kdy jeho otec špitál obdaroval. Královský prokurátor začne případ prošetřovat a narazí na vraždu staroměstské měšťanky, která se nechala vydržovat několika zámožnými muži, kromě jiného i nejvyšším komořím.

Píše se rok 1266 a český král Přemysl II. Otakar podporuje slabého císaře Richarda Cornwallského. Za to obdrží úřad, který spravuje císařovo jmění na východ od Rýna, a vzápětí se s jeho tichým souhlasem zmocní Chebska. Tamní měšťané s tím nesouhlasí, ale nemají sílu, aby tomu zabránili. Vzápětí se vytasí s listinou, podle které půjčilo jejich město Cheb českému králi Václavovi I. obrovské množství peněz a tyto peníze jim České království stále dluží.

Story
Díky králi Vratislavovi se České země staly poprvé významnou silou středoevropské politiky. Dramatický příběh z druhé poloviny 11. století vypráví na základě dochovaných historických pramenů o jeho dlouhém a pohnutém živ otě. První díl sleduje osudy pětice Přemyslovců, synů knížete Břetislava, svářících se o moc v Českých zemích. Ačkoli Vratislav není prvorozený a podle vůle svého otce se stává pouhým dědicem olomouckého údělu, starší Spytihněv ho oprávněně vnímá jako soupeře.

Dr. Peterson guides us through the ancient, foundational stories of the Western world. In riveting detail, he analyzes the Biblical accounts of rebellion, sacrifice, suffering, and triumph that stabilize, inspire, and unite us culturally and psychologically. Adam and Eve and the eternal fall of mankind; the resentful and ultimately murderous war of Cain and Abel; the cataclysmic flood of Noah; the spectacular collapse of the Tower of Babel; Abraham’s terrible adventure; and the epic of Moses and the Israelites.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

No one knows about the strange powers she possesses or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.
