Lacná kniha El Afgano
Nunca nadie ha conseguido infiltrarse en la organización de Al-Qaeda pero es la única forma de evitar otro gran atentado terrorista. Desde los atentados terroristas contra las Torres Gemelas y el metro de Londres, los servicios secretos de ambas naciones dedican enormes recursos a controlar los mensajes en árabe en la red con el fin de detectar cualquier sugerencia de nuevos ataques. Después de consultar con todos los expertos, se ha llegado a la conclusión de que algo muy grande se está tramando pero les es imposible conseguir más datos, ni dónde, ni cómo, ni cuándo. La única manera de conseguir más información sería infiltrar un hombre suyo en la misma organización de Al- Qaeda, algo que nunca se ha logrado. Mike Martín, ex veterano de guerra de 44 aos, se ha jubilado de los cuerpos especiales de élites del ejército británico. Ahora se dedica a la restauración de una casa que ha comprado en el campo. En esta situación de gran urgencia los servicios secretos se fijan en él por esta faceta: Mike Martín puede pasar por un árabe. Se educó en Iraq donde su padre, empleado de una empresa petrolera, le mandó a un colegio iraquí, y Martín, moreno y con facciones faciales heredadas de una abuela india, no se diferencia en nada de sus futuros compaeros. El plan es enormemente arriesgado pero es la única posibilidad de evitar otra tragedia a manos de Al-Qaeda. La nueva identidad de Mike Martín ha de ser perfectamente construida y se decide que asumirá la identidad de Izmat Khan, un afgano que actualmente lleva 5 aos encarcelado en Guantánamo. Izmat Khan es el único superviviente de su familia, de su pueblo destruido y de sus compaeros guerrilleros. Durante meses Martín recibe instrucción en la cultura e idioma afgano. El mínimo fallo delataría su verdadera identidad. Cuando los americanos anuncian que Izmat Khan será deportado a su país, quien llega en su lugar es Mike Martín. El plan sigue adelante. Después de varias semanas de interrogación a manos de Al-Qaeda, el inglés es aceptado y asignado a la misteriosa operación terrorista, una operación suicida. Martín consigue mandarles algunas pistas a sus jefes quienes finalmente descubren la intención de la operación. Esta vez Al-Qaeda utilizará un gran barco lleno de material altamente explosiva para destruir una ciudad costera.... Quizás podrán parar la operación pero habrá manera de salvar al “afgano”?

New Spring: A Wheel of Time Prequel
The city of Canluum lies close to the scarred and desolate wastes of the Blight, a walled haven from the dangers away to the north, and a refuge from the ill works of those who serve the Dark One. Or so it is said. The city that greets Al'Lan Mandragoran, exiled king of Malkier and the finest swordsman of his generation, is instead one that is rife with rumour and the whisperings of Shadowspawn. Proof, should he have required it, that the Dark One grows powerful once more and that his minions are at work throughout the lands. And yet it is within Canluum's walls that Lan will meet a woman who will shape his destiny. Moiraine is a young and powerful Aes Sedai who has journeyed to the city in search of a bondsman. She requires aid in a desperate quest to prove the truth of a vague and largely discredited prophecy - one that speaks of a means to turn back the shadow, and of a child who may be the dragon reborn.

A master of deductive reasoning who can solve the most difficult crimes by spotting obscure clues overlooked by others, dilettante sleuth Sherlock Holmes was the hero of sixty stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle between 1887 and 1927. He even rose from the dead after Doyle tried to dispatch him in his twenty-fourth adventure, and readers protested. Here, in one volume, are all four full-length novels and fifty-six short stories about the colourful adventures of Sherlock Holmes- every word Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ever wrote about Baker Street's most famous resident. Also included is an introduction by lifetime Sherlockians Barbara and Christopher Roden. The Complete Sherlock Holmes is one of Barnes & Noble's Leatherbound Classics, with an exquisitely designed bonded-leather binding, distinctive gilt edging and a silk-ribbon bookmark.

Hello Universe
Newbery Medalist Erin Entrada Kelly's Hello, Universe is a funny and poignant neighborhood story about unexpected friendships.
Told from four intertwining points of view-two boys and two girls-the novel celebrates bravery, being different, and finding your inner bayani (hero).
In one day, four lives weave together in unexpected ways. Virgil Salinas is shy and kindhearted and feels out of place in his crazy-about-sports family. Valencia Somerset, who is deaf, is smart, brave, and secretly lonely, and she loves everything about nature. Kaori Tanaka is a self-proclaimed psychic, whose little sister, Gen, is always following her around. And Chet Bullens wishes the weird kids would just stop being so different so he can concentrate on basketball.
They aren't friends, at least not until Chet pulls a prank that traps Virgil and his pet guinea pig at the bottom of a well. This disaster leads Kaori, Gen, and Valencia on an epic quest to find missing Virgil. Through luck, smarts, bravery, and a little help from the universe, a rescue is performed, a bully is put in his place, and friendship blooms.
The acclaimed and award-winning author of Blackbird Fly and The Land of Forgotten Girls writes with an authentic, humorous, and irresistible tween voice that will appeal to fans of Thanhha Lai and Rita Williams-Garcia.

Life After Dark
Nightclubs and music venues are often the source of a lifetime's music taste, best friends and vivid memories. They can define a town, a city or a generation, and breed scenes and bands that change music history. In Life After Dark Dave Haslam reveals and celebrates a definitive history of significant venues and great nights out. Writing with passion and authority, he takes us from vice-ridden Victorian dance halls to acid house and beyond; through the jazz decades of luxurious ballrooms to mods in basement dives and the venues that nurtured the Beatles, the Stones, Northern Soul and the Sex Pistols; from psychedelic light shows to high street discos; from the Roxy to the Hacienda; from the Krays to the Slits; and from reggae sound systems to rave nights in Stoke. In a journey to dozens of towns and cities, taking in hundreds of unforgettable stories on the way, Haslam explores the sleaziness, the changing fashions, the moral panics and the cultural and commercial history of nightlife. He interviews clubbers and venue owners, as well as DJs and musicians; he meets one of the gangsters who nearly destroyed Manchester's nightlife and discusses Goth clubs in Leeds with David Peace.

Sex Lives of Siamese Twins
Lesbian passion, clinical obesity, murder, conjoined twins, and huge servings of food, sex and filthy language: it's the brand-new Irvine Welsh...When Lucy Brennan, a Miami Beach personal-fitness trainer, disarms an apparently crazed gunman chasing two frightened homeless men along a deserted causeway at night, the police and the breaking-news cameras are not far behind. Within hours, Lucy becomes a hero. Her celebrity is short-lived, though: the 'crazed gunman', Sean McCandless, turns out to be a victim of child sexual abuse and the two men are serial paedophiles. The solitary eye-witness, the depressed and overweight Lena Sorensen, thrilled by Lucy's heroism and decisiveness, becomes obsessed with the trainer and enrols as a client at her Bodysculpt gym. It quickly becomes clear that Lena is more interested in Lucy's body than her own. Then, when one of the paedophiles she allowed to escape carries out a heinous sex attack, Lucy's transition from hero to villain is complete. When Lucy imprisons Lena in her mother's deserted real-estate blocks downtown, and can't stop thinking about the sex lives of Siamese twins, the real problems start...In the aggressive, drill-sergeant trainer, Lucy Brennan, and the needy, manipulative Lena Sorensen, Irvine Welsh has created two of his most memorable female protagonists, and one of the most bizarre, sado-masochistic folie a deux in contemporary fiction. The Sex Lives of Siamese Twins taps into two great obsessions of our time, personal training regimes and real estate - how we look and where we live - and tells a story so subversive and dark it blacks out the Florida sun.
