Nedej se – Rowellová Rainbow (2023)

Nedej se is a story that is ghostly, romantic, and detective-like. It has just the right amount of kissing and talking that you would expect in a book by Rainbow Rowell – but many, many more monsters. Centuries-old prophecies foretold the arrival of the Greatest Mage, who, with his immense power, would save the magical world from destructive evil. The trouble is, Simon Snow is the worst Chosen One anyone has ever summoned. His spells usually cause more harm than good, so he prefers to wield a sword and leave the magic to his best friend. The world he is supposed to save looks down on him. And in the battle against the mysterious Villain Pleticha, Simon hasn’t exactly distinguished himself in the last seven years... Now he faces his final year at Watford School of Magical Arts – possibly the last year of his life – and he won't let it be ruined even by the fact that his horrible, treacherous, arrogant vampire roommate Baz has probably stolen his girlfriend. But Baz has done something even sneakier. He has vanished without a trace. And Simon won't rest until he gets to the bottom of this mystery. Recommended age 13+.
