Miłość, magia i uśpieni bogowie zderzają się w pierwszej części fascynującego cyklu fantasy autorki bestsellerów „The New York Times”, serii Aurora i The Illuminae Files. Kiedy ojciec Selly informuje ją w liście, że nie wraca do Kirkpool, dziewczyna jest niepocieszona. Ma spędzić zimę pod dowództwem Rensy, podczas gdy on zostanie na północy? Postanawia wziąć sprawy w swoje ręce. Plan, by ruszyć za ojcem, upada jednak, gdy statek Selly rekwiruje urodziwy nieznajomy. To książę Leander z Alinoru, który musi niepostrzeżenie pokonać Morze Półksiężyca i odprawić rytuał na świętych Wyspach Bogów. Podczas z pozoru łatwego rejsu dochodzi do tragedii. Gdy dwa kraje znajdą się na krawędzi wojny, młodych bohaterów połączy więź, jakiej się nie spodziewali, a groźni bogowie ockną się z wielusetletniego snu… Amie Kaufman snuje piękną baśń o majestatycznych okrętach, księciu w przebraniu i dziewczynie, której sekret może wstrząsnąć światem. - C.S. Pacat, autorka bestsellera Dark Rise

Magic and sacrifice will collide as lovers and gods, enemies and allies vie for the fate of the world in this heart-pounding sequel to THE ISLES OF THE GODS, which Stephanie Garber called "deliciously diabolical and full of heart." When Selly and Leander began their treacherous voyage to the Isles of the Gods, the captain’s daughter and the playboy prince were strangers. But amid talk of war and a deadly attack on their ship, the unthinkable happened. They fell in love. Leander’s ritual at the island temple was meant to prevent a war between the gods. Instead, it nearly cost him his life, and drew the goddess Barrica back from exile. Now, as her Messenger, Leander is imbued with her deadly magic, and only Selly’s presence can stop it from consuming him. But Barrica wasn’t the only immortal roused from sleep. The God of Risk, Macean, was awakened by an enemy all thought dead, and across the sea he’s calling for war. The fight to save their world will take Selly and Leander from the gilded ballroom of the royal palace to the hallowed halls of an ancient library. Battle lines will be drawn, and bonds will break. With the wrath of gods and the machinations of power-hungry rulers straining their loyalties, can their love withstand the trials that await them?

Selly Walker prend enfin le large, loin du royaume d''Alinor ! Quand son navire est réquisitionné pour une mission d''ordre royal, la jeune fille est furieuse. En effet, Selly est sommée d’escorter le troublant prince Leander incognito jusqu’à l’Archipel des Dieux pour qu’il y sacrifie un peu de son sang, ainsi que l’exige le rituel qui protège le royaume. Pour couronner le tout, une impitoyable tueuse nommée Laskia se lance à leurs trousses. Son but ? Assassiner Leander, le seul à pouvoir garantir la paix entre les Dieux et les hommes...

Magia, romance e deuses adormecidos se misturam no início de uma fascinante série de fantasia em alto-mar. Séculos atrás, o deus do risco foi forçado a dormir para evitar uma guerra. Desde então, o irmão de cada governante de Alinor é enviado às Ilhas dos Deuses para sacrificar algo em troca da proteção do deus da guerra. Essa tradição evitou o surgimento de conflitos e é a única forma garantida de manter a paz e impedir que os deuses entrem em confronto novamente. Selly Walker, filha de um famoso capitão, não tem aptidão natural para a magia e não quer nada além de se juntar ao pai no norte, mas está presa trabalhando como marinheira no Lizabetta pelo resto do ano. Quando ela descobre que seu pai só voltará depois do inverno, Selly, que não está disposta a ficar de fora de nenhuma aventura, decide fugir e encontrá-lo por conta própria. O plano de Selly é arruinado quando um estranho, com quem ela antipatiza de imediato, assume o comando do navio. O príncipe Leander, irmão da rainha, precisa atravessar o oceano sem ser avistado para poder fazer o sacrifício. Ele adiou a tarefa e já está um ano atrasado, então as tensões começam a aumentar. Selly rejeita essa missão e o novo passageiro a bordo. Mas, quando a frota enviada com Leander para servir de isca é atacada, ela e a tripulação do Lizabetta devem protegê-lo por tempo suficiente para chegar às Ilhas dos Deuses, mesmo que isso signifique perder tudo no processo.

Nuestros héroes han regresado. Por así decirlo... Primero, las malas noticias: un antiguo mal (ya sabes, el típico que consume toda la vida de la galaxia) está a punto de desatarse. ¿La buena noticia? Que el Escuadrón 312 está preparado para acudir al rescate. Solo que antes tienen que encargarse de algunas cuestiones. Como, por ejemplo, del grupo de agentes infiltrados en la AGI que no se detendrá hasta atrapar a Auri. O de la hermana perdida de Kal, que no se alegra demasiado de ver a su hermanito y que tiene un ejército syldrathi a sus espaldas. Con la mitad de la galaxia conocida pisándoles los talones, los miembros del Escuadrón 312 nunca antes se habían sentido tan buscados. Revelaciones impactantes, atracos bancarios, regalos misteriosos, ropa inapropiadamente ajustada y un tiroteo de proporciones épicas determinarán el destino de los héroes más inolvidables de la Legión Aurora. Y, tal vez, también el del resto de la galaxia.

The year is 2380 and the cadets of the last year of the Aurora Academy are going to receive their first mission. Star student Tyler Jones is ready to recruit his dream squad, but his own ridiculous heroism causes him to settle for the spoils no other student at the academy would want to accept: a smug diplomat with a black belt in sarcasm; a sociopathic scientist with a fondness for shooting her roommates; the most belligerent tech genius in the entire galaxy; an alien warrior with anger management issues from him; a pilot who, in case you were wondering, has no feelings for Tyler, nothing at all. Plus, Tyler's squad isn't even his biggest problem: that would be Aurora Jie-Lin O'Malley, the girl he just rescued from interdimensional space. Trapped in cryogenic sleep for two centuries, Auri is a girl out of time and out of place. Yet she could be the catalyst for a war millions of years in the making, and Tyler's squad of losers, disciplinary cases, and misfits could be the galaxy's last hope. Don't let her panic.

From the #1 bestselling author of Empire of the Vampire and the bestselling author of Isles of the Gods comes the award-winning and international bestseller that is bound to set your galaxy on fire.

Fantasy román plný magie a romantiky, odehrávající se na moři, od úspěšné australské spisovatelky. Selly uvázla na pevnině, ale rozhodně tam nehodlá strávit zimu. Moře totiž volá a ona musí najít svého otce, který o sobě už dlouho nedal vědět. Plány jí však zkříží pohledný kouzelník. Ten potřebuje dokončit rituál na posvátných Ostrovech bohů, a tak postaví Selly i její posádku před složitý úkol: nepozorovaně překonat Půlměsíční moře. Plavba se vlivem zrady promění v noční můru, na jejímž konci se mohou dva nebezpeční bohové probrat ze staletého spánku. Vražedné dobrodružství na širém moři právě začíná! Nakladatelská anotace. Kráceno.

Eine rasante Jagd quer durch Europa, ein Pageturner bis zur letzten Seite Amelia und Jules kehren auf die Erde zurück, um die Menschheit vor den drohenden Gefahren zu warnen. Wobei ihre Rückkehr etwas »holprig« verläuft – und ihr Absturz im Raumschiff der Unsterblichen ist nicht das Schlimmste. Denn niemand glaubt ihnen, dass der Untergang der Menschheit unmittelbar bevorsteht, obwohl eine Pandemie schon als erstes Warnzeichen um sich greift. Jules und Mia haben keine andere Wahl, als die Dinge selbst in die Hand zu nehmen, die Rettung der Erde liegt nun allein in ihrer Hand. Der zweite Band und Abschluss der mega-spannenden »Unearthed«-Dilogie

Las autoras superventas del New York Times Amie Kaufman y Meagan Spooner nos presentan un fantástico mundo en el que la magia y el destino contrastan con prodigios futuristas. El príncipe North vive en el cielo, a bordo de una ciudad que se mantiene en el aire gracias a la más avanzada tecnología. Nimh es la encarnación de una diosa en la superficie, y se encarga de proporcionar respuestas y esperanza. Las vidas de North y Nimh se cruzarán de repente. Unidos por una terrible profecía, deberán embarcarse en una misión para salvar a sus pueblos a la vez que lucharán por no sucumbir a la atracción prohibida que comienza a surgir entre ellos.

Der Auftakt der mega-spannenden »Unearthed«-Dilogie Auf der Erde hätten Jules und Amelia sich gehasst: er ein verwöhnter Jung-Wissenschaftler, der sich in den Kopf gesetzt hat, die Erde vor dem Ressourcen-Kollaps zu retten; sie eine Plünderin, auf der Suche nach irgendetwas, was sie zu Geld machen kann. Fernab der Erde, auf dem kargen Planeten Gaia, müssen sie zusammenarbeiten, denn sie haben dasselbe Ziel: den verlassenen Tempel der Unsterblichen. Nur gemeinsam können die beiden die kryptischen Rätsel lösen und die tödlichen Fallen überwinden, die das Innere des Tempels schützen. Doch können sie einander wirklich vertrauen? Packende Action, schlagfertig-witzige Dialoge: »Lara Croft« meets »Indiana Jones«

Perfect for fans of Brandon Sanderson and Laini Taylor, this much-anticipated sequel to New York Times bestselling authors Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner’s The Other Side of the Sky is a thrilling race against time—with a tantalizing star-crossed love and an electric conclusion. Time to find a way between worlds. Time to find each other again. Time to do the impossible. Above, in the cloudlands, Nimh has no memory of her past, only an aching, undying certainty that she has left something—someone—behind. But while she struggles to recall her identity, an imposter wields her name with deadly purpose. Below, on the surface, North looks to the sky, desperate to join the person he loves and return to his world. But with only a traitor willing to help him, and others clamoring for him to take Nimh’s place, his home seems more unreachable than ever. Tragedy looms as the cloudland engines falter and mist rains terror on the surface, and in their desperation to reunite and save their people, Nimh and North face one ultimate question: can they defy their love and their destiny to save their homes? Or will the spark between them ignite their worlds, and consume them all together?
