Az elásott csatabárd


Minden rendszer összeomlik. Minden társadalom megrendül. Minden világ véget ér. A Föderáció tekintélyuralmi rendszerében összeesküvést szőnek, hogy meggyilkolják és lecseréljék az elnököt, aki rendre új testekbe tölti fel az elméjét, hogy megőrizze hatalmát. Mindeközben Nyugat-Európa perifériáján, ahol átadták a kormányzást a látszólag hatékonyabb, objektívebb és békésebb elnöki mesterséges intelligenciáknak, egy kísérleti elme meghibásodik, és azzal fenyeget, hogy olyan láncreakciót indít el, amely elhozhatja a nyugati világ végét. A baljós eseményekkel egy időben a Föderációban élő Lilja, a zseniális tudós, akinek a találmánya lehet a kulcs a látszólag halhatatlan elnök megdöntéséhez, menekülni kezd a törvény elől, és megpróbál kiszabadulni a rendszer felügyeletének szinte kijátszhatatlan védelmi hálójából. Sorsa összefonódik más lázadókéval a világ különböző pontjain, és hamarosan kockázatos szövetségek, titkos akciók és halálos következmények közt zajlik a harc fajunk túléléséért. Az elásott csatabárd vad tempójú, mélyen rétegzett futurisztikus thriller a geopolitikai kémkedések izgalmas jövőbeli világából, az emberi szabadságot megfojtó diktatórikus rendszerek kemény kritikájával. Ray Nayler Az óceán szeme és a Hugo-díjas Mamutrezervátum óriási nemzetközi sikere után egy újabb fontos és rendkívül elgondolkodtató könyvvel jelentkezik.

The Invisible Years


“It’s impossible to get a single answer from the past. It’s not a key to anything. It’s just a place we go to trick ourselves.”Andrea and Julián haven’t seen one another in twenty-one years—not since the tragic, fateful night their senior year of high school that marked their group of friends forever. A startling phone call brings the two together again in Houston, where they begin to unravel the truth of that year, picking open long scabbed-over wounds from their upper-class adolescence in 1990s Bolivia and the scandal that ripped them apart. A writer unhappy in his career and his marriage, Julián has been novelizing the past for his next book, trying to make meaning out of the events that changed the course of their lives forever. “I’d thought that writing about that time would free me, relieve the burden of the invisible years,” he writes, “but often it seems that it’s done the reverse.” Juxtaposing the naive invincibility of adolescence with the grasping uncertainties of adulthood, The Invisible Years deftly weaves a coming-of-age tale that leaves the reader hanging on every word, even as they know how the cards fall in the end.

The Trident and the Pearl


A desperate queen makes a deal with the gods to save her land in this spellbinding romantasy debut from Sarah K. L. Wilson. Queen Coralys rules the Kingdom of the Five Isles, but when disaster strikes, killing her husband and destroying half her nation, she pleads with the gods for salvation. And they do save her, turning back the terrible winds and tide, and snatching her islands from the brink of destruction. But the gods have a wicked sense of justice and they demand an exchange for their help: Coralys must marry the first man to set foot on her pier. Coralys expects the fleet of a neighboring country to come to rescue her people, led by its prince, a loyal ally. What she gets instead is a fisherman so sunburnt and stinking that her court can barely keep their breakfast down. Coralys, undaunted, marries the fisherman just as she promised the gods, and sets out with him in his unkempt dinghy, with nothing but hopes of revenge against the gods to keep her from despair. But what this fearless queen does not know is that the fisherman is actually the god of the sea and he stepped on her dock on purpose. His own kingdom besieged, his body terribly wounded, and his place as a god threatened, the god of the sea has plans to turn the tides set against him and finally offer a place of refuge for his people. But to work the magic he needs will require the willing help of the one woman bent on his destruction. Tropes to watch for: THE ULTIMATE ENEMIES TO LOVERS, rage against destiny, slow burn romance, sea god vibes, dark fairy-tale, hurt/comfort aka comforting wounded hearts.

Windlake


„Egy tóparti falu a háború után. Egy fiú, aki nem talál szavakat az érzéseire. És egy apa, akinek a csendje nehezebb a haragnál. A tizennyolc éves Sebastian Vesper a felnőtté válás küszöbén keresi a helyét az apja szigora és a barátjához, Noelhez fűződő, megnevezhetetlen érzések miatti bűntudat között. Miközben a hallgatásból lassan szavak lesznek, a tó mindent visszatükröz: vágyat, félelmet és azt a kérdést, hogy hogyan találunk vissza önmagunkhoz ott, ahol nem szokás kimondani az igazságot. A Windlake egy lírai és fájdalmasan őszinte történet a kimondatlan érzésekről, a család fontosságáról, az első szerelemről, és arról, hogy néha az a legnehezebb út, ami visszavezet minket önmagunkhoz.” #szerelem, #vágy, #kimondatlan szavak, #barátság, #család
