Fire & Ice
"Love the story, characters and the writing." --Kevin J. Anderson
Where magic is dark and gritty, characters troubled and twisted, and victory comes at a heavy price.
Deep under the City of Glass in the frozen southern land, an age-old machine called the Heart of the City radiates a power which locals call icefire. Most citizens are immune to it, but a few, always born with physical disabilities, can bend it to their will. For fifty years, the ruling Eagle Knights, who fly on the back of giant birds, have killed these Imperfects, fearing the return of the old royal family, who used icefire to cut out people's hearts, turning them into ghostly servitors.
The old king's grandson Tandor only sees the good things icefire brought: power and technology now forgotten while the people of the south live in dire poverty. He's had enough of seeing his fellow kinsfolk slaughtered by ignorant Knights, of Imperfect babies being abandoned on the ice floes to be eaten by wild animals. His grandfather's diary tells him how to increase the beat of the Heart the first step to making the land glorious once more. Arrogant as he is, he sets the machine in motion. All he needs is an army of Imperfect servitors to control the resulting power.
Isandor is Imperfect, an ex-Knight apprentice, betrayed by his best friend and running for his life.
The queen Jevaithi is Imperfect, living like a prisoner amidst leering Knights, surviving only because the common people would rebel if their beloved queen were harmed.
Both are young and desperate and should be grateful that Tandor wants to rescue them from their hopeless situations. Or so he thinks. The youngsters, however, have no inclination to become heartless ghosts, but while they defy Tandor, the Heart beats, and he alone cannot control its power.

After the Fire - A tűz után
A dolgok, amiket láttam, belém égtek, akár a sebhelyek,
amik nem akarnak halványulni.
Korábban egy kerítésen belül élt a családjával.
Most csapdába esett egy szövetségi intézményben.
Korábban nem hagyhatta el a birtokot, nem beszélhetett a Kívülállókkal.
Most túl sok ember tesz fel neki kérdéseket arról, mi történt vele,
és próbálja kitalálni, ki is ő valójában. Korábban úgy hitte, óvják valamitől.
Most az emberek azt mondják neki, végre biztonságban van.
Nem tudja, melyik volt jobb: korábban vagy most. Csak annyit tud, hogy
vannak kérdések, amiket nem válaszolhat meg. És ha minden, amit eddig
mondtak neki, hazugság, honnan tudhatná, hogy most ki mond igazat?
Izgalmas és megindító,
A tűz után tökéletes olvasmány mindenkinek, aki szereti...
...a kultusztémákat,
...a letehetetlen kamaszthrillereket,
...a címlapra kívánkozó csavarokat,
...az olvasmányos történeteket, amik egyszerűen beszippantanak.
YALSA-lista-győztes
Lebilincselő és felejthetetlen történet egy szektában való élet utáni
túlélésről, amelyet az 1993-as texasi, úgynevezett "wacói ostrom"

Rebel Moon Part One - A Child Of Fire: The Official Novelization
When a peaceful settlement on a moon in the furthest reaches of the universe finds itself threatened by the armies of the tyrannical Regent Balisarius, a mysterious stranger named Kora becomes their best hope for survival.
From Zack Snyder, the filmmaker behind 300, Man of Steel, and Army of the Dead, comes REBEL MOON, an epic science-fantasy event decades in the making.
When a peaceful settlement on a moon in the furthest reaches of the universe finds itself threatened by the armies of the tyrannical Regent Balisarius, Kora (Sofia Boutella), a mysterious stranger living among the villagers, becomes their best hope for survival. Tasked with finding trained fighters who will unite with her in making an impossible stand against the Mother World, Kora assembles a small band of warriors—outsiders, insurgents, peasants and orphans of war from different worlds who share a common need for redemption and revenge. As the shadow of an entire Realm bears down on the unlikeliest of moons, a new army of heroes is formed.
Novelized by V. Castro, two-time Bram Stoker Award-nominated author. Experience Rebel Moon on the page in this pulse-pounding novelization.
Things We Lost in the Fire
Sleep-deprived fathers conjuring phantoms; sharp-toothed children and stolen skulls; persecuted young women drawn to self-immolation. Organized crime sits side-by-side with the occult in Buenos Aires - a place where reality and the preternatural fuse into strange, new shapes. These stories follow the wayward and downtrodden, revealing the scars of Argentina's dictatorship and the ghosts and traumas that have settled in the minds of its people. Provocative, brutal and uncanny, Things We Lost in the Fire is a paragon of contemporary Gothic from a writer of singular vision.

Skrillex - Quest For Fire (Red) 2LP
KDO: Americký elektronický producent a muzikant Skrillex patří k nejvýraznějším tvářím dubstepového experimentování. Začínal jako zpěvák post-hardcorových From First To Last, s nimiž natočil dvě alba. Později se osamostatnil a začal tvořit nekompromisní elektronické kompozice. K rockové hudbě má však stále blízko, v roce 2011 například spolupracoval s nu-metalovými Korn. Je majitelem šesti cen Grammy.
CO: Fyzická podoba druhého alba populárního zvukového experimentátora. Deska Quest For Fire vyšla digitálně zároveň s třetí studiovkou Don’t Get Too Close, nyní je k dispozici na CD a 2LP. Zatímco trojka je popovější a uhlazenější, na Quest For Fire se Skrillex vydal na výlet za novým dobrodružstvím. Sci-fi psychedelická džungle mikrozvuků často vznikala s přispěním hostů (Fred Again, Jamie xx, Four Tet, Mr. Oizo, Noisia nebo Joker) a za asistence rapperů (Flowdan, Swae Lee, Missy Elliott).
