V roce 2012 se součástí Nakladatelství Slovart stalo nakladatelství Brio. Nakladatelství Brio vydávalo ve spolupráci s předními spisovateli a výtvarníky nádherně ilustrované originální příběhy a sbírky pohádek pro děti od šesti do dvanácti let. Pro starší děti, mládež a dospělé Brio nabízelo sebrané spisy pohádek a bajek od renomovaných spisovatelů, doplněné o to nejlepší z klasické literatury celého světa. V této tradici pokračujeme také my v rámci stejnojmenné edice.
Jsme výhradní distributor nakladatelství TASCHEN pro Českou republiku
Discover history's biggest secret . . . For millennia an unbroken line of alien mothers and daughters have secretly been shepherding human technology towards the stars.
Twelve-year-old Aster is the last of this line. But the loss of her mother in early life means she knows nothing of her alien heritage - believing she is just an ordinary young girl.
Not only is she about to discover how wrong she is - but she'll also learn she's not the only alien on Earth: others are here to stop her.
Yet with revelation comes recovery. Now Aster has a purpose. Her life, the future of her species and that of all life on Earth is at stake.
She's history's biggest secret. But can she save the future?
