ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS (LEW, J.) (Ficción moderna y contemporanea)

Sitting in his old high school parking lot, Michael Oliver James III began to question himself, ?Why am I here, and why did I bother coming at all?? His fear causes his hands to shake, his face to sweat, and his body to flow with anxiety. Panic stricken, he closes his eyes and covers them with sweaty hands and takes a deep breath to compose himself. Exhaling and lowering his head he takes a deep breath and opens his eyes? His mouth wide open, his hands lowers, and slowly looking up, there he is - Craig Daniels his greatest nemeses. He?s been transported back to a time of nose bleeds, headaches, and humiliations. Before the memory of his future fades he realizes he?s about to relive his childhood life all over again.

LOS MUNDOS DE GAEL: TIERRA HÍBRIDA (HALABE, ANA) (Ficción moderna y contemporanea)

Los híbridos están entre nosotros. La Tierra ha cambiado. Los humanos han cambiado. Los híbridos ya están aquí. El jefe nixo Norkam, junto a la híbrida-humana Leiana y su guerrero Cyan, rigen el nuevo mundo. Yseut y Gael huyen para reunirse con Hugo, el padre del joven, y poder cumplir con su misión en el planeta Éter. En el camino rescatarán a Jano, un adolescente de dieciocho años quien, junto con el aguerrido León, formará parte del creciente grupo de humanos «normales»; ellos intentarán resistir el cambio generado por los nixos, planeando la destrucción de los «distintos». Pero todo puede estallar por los aires cuando Gael descubra la verdadera identidad de Leiana.

LA PINÇA BIRMANA (JAEN CALERO, MARIA) (Ficción moderna y contemporanea)

La Carla Mas, estrella del serial de la tele L'esquerra de l'Eixample, i la seva mare, una vella glòria de l'escena catalana, tenen una relació impossible.

JO TAMBÉ VULL SER FUNCIONARI (CARRÉ PONS, ANTONIA) (Ficción moderna y contemporanea)

Com és una jornada laboral d'un grup de funcionaris? La comunitat funcionarial desperta curiositat i enveja a parts iguals. Per això ens ha semblat oportú desmuntar uns quants mites amb aquesta sàtira refrescant i àcida com un granissat de llimona. Antònia Carré-Pons ha escrit una narració sobre els engranatges humans que conformen un organisme governamental, fent ús d'una impagable galeria de personatges que es belluguen sense escrúpols per entre les xarxes del sistema. Jo també vull ser funcionari és una crítica divertida de l'espècie funcionarial que es podria aplicar a qualsevol institució pública -conselleria, ajuntament, diputació, consell comarcal, ministeri o vegueria-, sigui quin sigui el seu color polític.
