Kada se Kristofer probudio pored zmaja koji mu gricka lice, srce mu je zaigralo od radosti. Sanjao je o povratku na Arhipelag, skup od trideset četiri ostrva. To je tajno mesto na kome mitska stvorenja i dalje žive.
Međutim, Arhipelag je u opasnosti jer zmajevi misteriozno umiru, pa Kristofer dobija poziv u pomoć i, na leđima sfinge, odlazi u spasilačku misiju. Udružuje se sa hrabrom princezom Anjom, koja pokušava da spase svog nepravedno optuženog oca. Dok otkrivaju da su njihove misije duboko povezane, Kristofer i Anja kreću u opasne pustolovine kako bi spasli i zmajeve i kraljevstvo.
Drugi deo serijala Neverovatna stvorenja donosi novu uzbudljivu avanturu kroz zamkove, zmajeva gnezda i tajne ostrva.
U našem svetu postoji tajno mesto koje je dobro skriveno, kako bi bilo bezbedno od nas. To mesto je divlje i veličanstveno: zemlja u kojoj sva mitska stvorenja i dalje žive i napreduju. Poznato je kao Arhipelag. To je grupa od trideset četiri ostrva: neka su velika poput Danske, neka mala kao gradski trg. Na tim ostrvima hiljade magijskih stvorenja trče i lete, razmnožavaju se, stare, umiru i ponovo se rađaju. Za nas, ona su napola zaboravljena i odavno se smatraju pričama za decu. Ali nismo ih uništili: preživela su. Ima ih mnogo, i blistava su, i stvarna. To je poslednje preostalo magijsko mesto.
Nijedna životinja nije tako mudra kao zmaj. Moć njegovog blagoslova nije lažna. Može biti manji od malog, veći od velikog, viši od visokog i niži od niskog. Lu Djen (1402–1102)

We are social animals. Our very lives depend on our relationships with people. Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people's masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose.
This concise version of the business classic Mastery provides a shortcut to Greene's powerful new tools for achieving greatness. Around the globe, people are facing the same problem - that we are born as individuals but are forced to conform to the rules of society if we want to succeed. To see our uniqueness expressed in our achievements, we must first learn the rules - and then change them completely.
Told through Robert Greene's signature blend of historical anecdote and psychological insight and drawing on interviews with world leaders, Concise Mastery builds on the strategies outlined in The 48 Laws of Power to provide a practical guide to greatness - and learn how to start living by your own rules.
Abundantly illustrated with examples from history, from powerful world leaders like Napoleon and Margaret Thatcher, to Shaka the Zulu and Hannibal, each of the thirty-three chapters outlines a strategy to help you win life's wars. Learn proactive methods that require you to maintain initiative and negotiate from positions of strength, or defensive strategies that allow you to respond to dangerous situations and avoid unwinnable wars.
In this condensed version of Greene's bestselling The Art of Seduction, learn how to gain mastery over the subject of your desire, and how to keep those you want constantly anticipating what comes next.
Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this piercing work distils three thousand years of the history of power into forty-eight well-explicated laws. As attention-grabbing in its design as it is in its content, this bold volume outlines the laws of power in their unvarnished essence, synthesizing the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun-tzu, Carl von Clausewitz, and other great thinkers.
Some laws require prudence , some stealth, and some the total absence of mercy, but all have applications in real-life situations.
Illustrated through the tactics of Queen Elizabeth I, Henry Kissenger, P T Barnum, and other famous figures who have wielded - or been victimised by - power, these laws will fascinate any reader interested in gaining, observing or defending against ultimate control.
