THE AEBELING
Seriously clichéd millionaire playboy Major Connor MacLeod, is nonetheless no ordinary forty year old millionaire playboy. A highly decorated army officer, a world and Olympic champion sportsman, a scholar with degrees in science, engineering, and history, he has lived his twenty years of public life at full throttle. Frenemies typically describe him as arrogant, reckless, irresponsible and positively suicidal, but he has proven, to date, to be the proverbial unstoppable force. But all good things must come to an end. Conn has "inherited" a method of passing from this time and dimension to another; one that he believes to be a lot like, but is most definitely not, 9th Century Europe. When he steps from this world to another, will he have finally bitten off more than he can chew?

LA CAÍDA DE LOS REYES
"A punta de espada fue la mejor novela de fantasía de 1989. La caída de los reyes es aún mejor: más retorcida y más profunda." Neil Gaiman Cuando cayeron los reyes, la magia desapareció con ellos. Bienvenidos a una ciudad sin nombre dividida entre la Colina, sede de suntuosas mansiones, y la Ribera, hogar de carteristas y prostitutas, donde los nobles encuentran a los expertos espadachines que, sin nada que perder, se baten en duelo por ellos. El poder está en manos del Consejo de los Lores desde hace dos siglos, cuando la aristocracia se enfrentó a la monarquía y el duque de Tremontaine, el Regicida, retó y mató al último rey. Pero ahora algo se mueve en las provincias del norte, fuente de una magia cuya sola mención está prohibida, y su infuencia se deja sentir en la ciudad. Basil de Cloud, doctor en Historia, desafía los principios de la academia al proponer la tesis de la realidad de la magia, que puede demostrar al poseer el único ejemplar existente del Libro del brujo del rey. Y desafía las normas de la sociedad al tomar como amante a Theron Campion, heredero de Tremontaine, por cuyas venas corre la sangre de los reyes. Su encuentro no es casual: cada rey debe tener un brujo como compañero y consejero... y las antiguas tradiciones están a punto de cobrar nueva vida. Ellen Kushner y Delia Sherman tejen el maravilloso tapiz de una sociedad sofisticada y brutal, donde las convenciones sociales esconden violentas pasiones, en una novela que indaga en el sustrato mítico de la fantasía al tiempo que enfrenta a sus magníficos personajes en diálogos tan afilados y espectaculares como la mejor esgrima. Una potente novela de fantasía que se eleva sobre las demás merced a su vívido escenario, sus complejos personajes y su elegante prosa. Locus La caída de los reyes es algo extraordinario hoy en día: una novela que te atrapa y te hace vivir la historia junto con los personajes. Lynn Flewelling Kushner y Sherman no cuentan fábulas ni historias caprichosas: son forjadoras de mundos, y su materia prima es un lenguaje de hierro y aire. Gregory Maguire
FICCIÓN GRAMATICAL
En un futuro mucho más cercano de lo que parece, tres personajes coinciden en un Londres clautrofóbico bajo las cúpulas antipolución y la terrible amenaza ecoterrorista. Con un ritmo trepidante, los personajes de esta obra se entrecruzarán en un mundo en el que asoma la inmortalidad, pero donde el dolor y la crueldad se abrirán paso por encima de las palabras, de los sentimientos y de la literatura.
DIANA, HERSELF
Maybe, once or twice in your life, you’ve experienced a surge of destiny so strong it made you believe in miracles. Such bolts from the blue seem to hit when weariness or ill fortune have plowed through the ground of reason, breaking it up so magic can take root. What follows is so perfect that to call it accidental defies belief. Diana Archer is an absolutely—mathematically!—average woman, living an unremarkable life, when destiny reaches her. Without quite knowing how or why, she finds herself leaving everything familiar and moving into a world where miracles are commonplace, where her supposed flaws become her salvation, and where each person’s story is everyone’s. In this exuberant allegory, bestselling memoir and self-help author Martha Beck takes readers into the wild parts of the world and the human psyche. The story of Diana, Herself helps every reader chart a course for awakening to greater joy, adventure, and purpose. It feels almost magical to Diana Archer—out-of-work store clerk, former foster child, and bearer of multiple psychological diagnoses—when she’s pulled into the orbit of world-famous life coach and reality TV star Roy Richards. Together, Diana and Roy embark on the latest in his series of “conquests,” surviving a month in California’s trackless Sierras Oscuras National Forest. It’s in the forest that their quest devolves into disaster—and the real magic begins. Lost, alone, and dying, Diana is taken under the trotter of a benevolent spirit animal (or is it a projection of her perennially troubled mind?) who promises to take her home. But ”home“ proves to be a place much more mysterious than Los Angeles. Awakening is the goal, Diana learns, and bewilderment is the method. As the first volume of the three-part “Bewilderment Chronicles” proceeds, Diana will undergo a transformation that will change her irrevocably, and just possibly save the world. Let the enchantment begin.
