Notes from the Burning Age
“ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I''VE READ IN RECENT YEARS. THOUGHT PROVOKING, IMAGINATIVE AND PACKS A HELL OF AN EMOTIONAL PUNCH.” —Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of Children of Time From one of the most imaginative writers of her generation comes an extraordinary vision of the future… Ven was once a holy man, a keeper of ancient archives. It was his duty to interpret archaic texts, sorting useful knowledge from the heretical ideas of the Burning Age—a time of excess and climate disaster. For in Ven''s world, such material must be closely guarded so that the ills that led to that cataclysmic era can never be repeated. But when the revolutionary Brotherhood approaches Ven, pressuring him to translate stolen writings that threaten everything he once held dear, his life will be turned upside down. Torn between friendship and faith, Ven must decide how far he''s willing to go to save this new world—and how much he is willing to lose. “A riveting tale of subterfuge and deadly self-indulgence” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) from award-winning author Claire North, Notes from the Burning Age puts dystopian fiction in a whole new light.

A Súbita Aparição de Hope Arden
Oucam-me. Lembrem-se de mim... O meu nome e Hope Arden, sou a rapariga de quem ninguem se lembra. Primeiro esquecem o meu rosto, depois a minha voz e, por fim, as consequencias dos meus atos. Desapareco da memoria sem deixar rasto. Comecou quando tinha 16 anos, um momento de cada vez. O meu pai esqueceu-se de me levar a escola, um professor esqueceu-se que eu era sua aluna, a minha m?e colocou mesa para tres, em vez de quatro. Um amigo olhou para mim e so viu uma estranha. Por mais que eu tente, por mais pessoas que magoe ou crimes que cometa, nunca se lembram de mim. E isso torna-me unica... e particularmente perigosa. Esta e a historia de Hope Arden, a rapariga que todos esqueceram. Uma saga de amor, esperanca, desespero e ansia de viver o momento e deixar uma marca na vida.

These days, there''s no need to go to prison -- provided that you can afford to pay the penalty for the crime you''ve committed. If you''re rich enough, you can get away with murder. But Dani''s murder is different. When Theo finds her lifeless body, and a hired killer standing over her and calmly calling the police to confess, he can''t let her death become just an entry on a balance sheet. Someone is responsible. And Theo is going to find them and make them pay. Perfect for fans of 1984 and Never Let Me Go, Claire North''s moving and unnerving new novel will resonate with readers around the world.

As primeiras quinze vidas de Harry August
Certas histórias não podem ser contadas em uma única vida. Harry está no leito de morte. Outra vez. Não importa o que faça ou que decisões tome: toda vez que ele morre, volta para onde começou; uma criança com a memória de todo o conhecimento de uma vida vivida diversas vezes. Nada nunca muda, até agora. Ele está perto da décima primeira morte quando uma garotinha de 7 anos se aproxima da cama: "Quase perdi você, doutor August. Eu preciso enviar uma mensagem de volta no tempo. O mundo está acabando, como sempre. Mas o fim está chegando cada vez mais rápido. Então, agora é com você." Este livro conta a história do que Harry faz em seguida, do que fez antes, e do que faz para tentar salvar um passado inalterável e mudar um futuro inaceitável.

Huid op huid
Kepler kan wisselen van persoon door iemand aan te raken. Meestal beschouwt hij die geleende lichamen als een hobby, maar soms raakt hij aan ze gehecht, zoals aan Josephine. Maar dan wordt zijn geliefde Josephine vermoord, terwijl de moordenaar het op hém, Kepler, had gemunt. Hij begint aan een missie om achter de waarheid te komen en Josephines dood te wreken. Huid op huid is een razend spannende thriller mét diepgang, verrassend actueel in onze tijd van het altijd meer en mooier willen, van het beter voordoen dan je bent. Je wordt meegesleept door heel Europa in de jacht op de moordenaar. Huid op huid is letterlijk en figuurlijk grensoverschrijdend ‘Hoog spel in een halsbrekend tempo. Laat de lezer niet meer los.’ Kirkus

De eerste vijftien levens van Harry August
Harry August gaat dood. Keer op keer. Wat hij ook doet of besluit, telkens keert hij terug in hetzelfde leven, in hetzelfde jaar, op dezelfde plek. Maar mét de kennis uit zijn vorige levens. Toch verloopt niets anders. Dan staat er, aan het einde van zijn elfde leven, een klein meisje bij zijn sterfbed. Zij roept zijn hulp in om de wereld te redden. Inmiddels weet hij dat er meer zijn zoals hij. Terwijl de meesten hun kennis gebruiken om een lekker leven te leiden, is er een die zijn kennis te gelde maakt waardoor de wereld zich te snel vernieuwt en het natuurlijke evenwicht wordt verstoord. Dat zal uiteindelijk de ondergang betekenen. Alleen Harry kan hem tegenhouden. Als hij hem vindt. Als hij op tijd komt. Voor fans van David Mitchell Off the record Als een rechtenmanager me een manuscript stuurt en ergens onderin staat: in de lijn van o.a. David Mitchell, dan denk ik meteen: lijkt me sterk. Maar deze vrouw kent ons goed, dus toch maar meteen lezen. En al op de eerste bladzijde voelde ik dat het goed was. Susanne, elders in de stad, las mee en algauw zaten we het hele weekend heen en weer te smsen tot we uiteindelijk maar belden. Meteen een bod gedaan en proberen uit te vissen wie de schrijfster was. En was het wel een vrouw? Het is nog steeds niet helemaal duidelijk. LP
