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
How far would you go to save those you love? Lowrie and Shen are the youngest people on the planet after a virus caused global infertility. Closeted in a pocket of London and doted upon by a small, ageing community, the pair spend their days mudlarking and looking for treasure – until a secret is uncovered that threatens not only their family but humanity’s entire existence. Now Lowrie and Shen face an impossible choice: in the quiet at the end of the world, they must decide what to sacrifice to save the whole human race...
Review
"I adored The Quiet at the End of the World and it will be one of the books I'll recommend more often to anyone who cares to listen. It is essential that you read this if you love realistic post-apocalyptic stories." * Parabatai Reviews * "[...] a credible, hugely rewarding read." * SFX * "This book made me cry, it made me laugh and it made me yell uncontrollably at 1am and I would absolutely do it all over again." * Fantastic Books and Where to Find Them * "Honestly, I was hooked from the first two pages and I did not want to put this book down." * MamaMummyMum * "Everything is nigh on perfect. This is a clever, clever book that marks Lauren James as a storyteller of enormous talent." * Geek Dad *
